Yes, it's all scratch built.
The paint job could look a little better though.

I tried a different guard house. (Two of them.) I also added a counterweight to the pole. I made the guard houses out of cardboard.

Like it grunt1. The Black & white photo certainly sends you back in time.
I`ve never had any luck trying to do this & am envious of those who can.

Again Nice mod to make Kev`s great dio look even better.
