Chad,
Nice design and nice build! I was going to guess that it was a Pygmy model because I didn't look at this message first. I saw the multi panel deck and thought Pygmy but then I couldn't place which model it was. Now I know why. I am building mine from a magazine article and there were times when I wished things were explained or shown better. I can imagine you had a fair amount of noodling to do with your own design. Congratulations.
