Caspian Commander Build

September 6, 2007 

This is a recently completed Caspian Commander build.  It started as an oversized Caspian slide and frame, fitted with some of the finest parts available.  Planning this build was a great time, and once all the parts arrived, the real fun began!  The proud owner voiced his well-founded opinions when needed, and otherwise left a lot of the creative process to me.  Enjoy the pictures, and thanks for looking!
