StepIR Build Day One

I had a great time with Ron at VineCom and collected the DB11 on Saturday

There is a fair bit to it. 3 boxes which Just fitted in the car with all the other stuff from the weekend away.

First day when we got back was spent checking the contents and setting up all the hardware on the boom. These are the fibreglass tube elements
