Re: "42 DRAGON PARADE" progress report



 A real bad-ass reptile appeared at my door today. It is dark blue, I t's a
RAPTOR, with DCP 1200
on Its business end.  I think it will graft neatly onto 42 Dragon Parade.
The outcome should be very interesting.

The torque arms are complete and tacked into place.  Will try to complete
the welding tomorrow.  Couplers are all ready to be installed.  But
hopefully all the pieces will be together by the end of this weekend.
