You've done some very impressive work to have put that all together.
Does that thing kinda look like a big cat to you?

Trés beau!

Bienvenue a spudfiles!
Well...that's all the French I'm willing to speak...

Looks like you have the right kind of imagination, but not all skills or tools available to you yet.It looks like the very first marble gun I ever made, wich used elastic rubber bands.
I like your style and hope to see more from you in the future.

With some sanded epoxy this thing could be among the best.
