Yea I need to think about that. If I get a loupe/viewfinder for it, then I need it offset but for now it good enough. Thanks man. I want to see what yours looks like when its done.

yup, snagged a v2 when they were sold out, and they are so backordered on the new version. The gear box is a tad bit on the bigger side but its not bad
