Gutted K4 for room! Proffie build
So I purchased a K4 kit a while ago, and its been just sitting for the whole while. I keep picking it up and imagining how cool a good obi-wan build will be.... and then in look inside it. Its tiny. And all the chassis I see and crystal chambers out the back just look too small for my taste. I kept thinking it cant be that hard to get some more room in there can it? But it turns out its a good bit harder than it looks. trying to keep things structurally sound and having ways to open it up and keep parts attached to each other has been difficult. but I like a good challenge so now that I don't think ive ruined it by cutting it up and gutting it to hell ill catch you up to speed on where I am. :)
First off the section behind the graflex clamp... no matter how I looked at it it just had to go. I want both the top and the bottom sections to slide open to reveal stuff and the threads and small ID were killing me. So away she goes...

And my first hurdle was figuring out a way to keep the pommel attached to be booster without any fasteners and trying to get some ID. but I couldn't really come up with a good way so I decided to keep the threads and just bore it out a little.

By far the scariest part was boring out the sink knob
