By the way, the decals were created using various images from the Internet and then arranged in Photoshop and Illustrator.
Special thanks to the fine folks at Office Max Store# 6370 in Crystal Lake, IL.
and the fine folks at the FedEx Store in Algonquin, IL. for assisting with the decal printouts.

An awesome build, I am so glad I already had ordered and received my real chewlix. If I saw this first I may have been tempted to try it and I would have screwed it up. Royally wasted a bunch of my time and money. Your skills are so far beyond mine but you make it look so easy. Thank you for all your videos , pretty much everything you do. Project videos on are stuff that I am dying to do.

@@CGRTist I will just continue enjoying your labor. Honestly I closed in my garage except for about 4 ft of it to be able to put in my arcade along with 135 in projection screen. So I have no room for woodworking tools other than the bare necessities. Over the coming years I am thinking of doing some of your door trims and stuff and eventually making it more Star wars corridor-esque.
