My frame has arrived!

Woke up to a loud thud this morning and found that it was the mail carrier leaning the package my frame came in against the front door.

Opened it up after having gone back to bed for a while. I ordered this from Thomas Clark not very long ago and he got it sent out quickly for me. 

Got it all unpacked and pulled up the assembly video on YouTube. While unpacking I found the top ring had a cracked piece on it, but its not a big deal as it is in a spot that will be cut out eventually for the LDP anyway. 

After a short amount of time I had the front part if the frame mostly together. Ignore the mess of my house =]

I'm just dry fitting everything for the time being as I don't have my skins or my utility arms yet. Want to have those parts before I start gluing so that I know its all going together correctly. I will need to do some sanding before I put it together a second time. Some joints were quite tight and needed a rubber mallet to get into place. I'm sure with glue in there the fit will be even tighter. 

I got it all together though. Exciting to see R2 taking shape.
