After the last prototype run of the ZH, and following numerous soul searching and discussion sessions with the Inner Circle (SSAE for an Application Form), it was decided to change tack a tad....well, not quite so much changing tack as selling the yacht and buying a fizz boat.
I don't think we'll ever be able to fully get away from the issues of melt that seem to have stymied us, especially on the ends. The latest plan involves RP'ing up the ends for casting (possibly brass) followed by a resin one-piece casting for the body (but using the laser cut components for the master).
Sounds a tad easier to assemble for a start.

So the next thing will be for the file to go to MG for a quote.....and me rejigging all my estimates for when it might be ready.

If we stick with the current skeleton look, we have plenty of vents :-)
If you want to obtain alternative quotes for comparison, Stratatec have been doing all my RP work www.stratatec.co.nz, quality so far has been superb, everything arrives looking like injection moulded styrene.
