Thanks for your concern, Faceless Corporation, but if your product includes a list of 32 safety instructions, maybe tell the lawyers to chill out, have a cold beverage, smell some flowers.

Somehow this took a lot longer to arrive...four of them in a grocery bag inside a beaten cardboard box... than the wall-mount. These will be scattered amongst the tools to increase the chances of finding one when needed.
Works great!

"Mother Ukraine is an engineer's miracle, the tallest monumental sculpture in Europe. Its height is 102 meters. For comparison: the Statue of Liberty is 93 meters high. The figure of Mother Ukraine of LEGO is made on a scale of 1:200, its height is 54.8 cm and its width is 22.4 cm. When you complete it, you have to find a decent shelf."

So the algorithms are either truly effed or I have fallen into a rift and am now a meteorologist. Cool either way.

Also, hey @MyRadar any thoughts on this? I don't understand the connection between the Chickasaw Nation and McMurdo.
