Spent all weekend assembling this Core One. It probably took 14 hours in total. 12 hours to build and 2 hours to troubleshoot issues. Broke some parts made some mistakes but I finished the build.

Good luck man. It's crazy that you spend so much time building this giant thing and you don't find out if you built it correctly until the very end.
That is probably my biggest complaint with it. I've spent a long time building things before but for those projects I can always test what I've already built so I am never worried about it not working. But this, this is such a complex piece of machinery and you just kind of pray it works at the very end.
