Stage 2
"In Pieces"

This is the result of drilling out some 70 odd rivets, essentially taking the case down to its component ingredients for the internal painting.  Also, the windows have been cut by a facility with a Laser Cutter, there is a link to their homepage at the bottom of this one.  The laser cutting was very clean, requiring minimal sanding... a lot better than I could have done with my Dremel.
