Command Module and Lunar Module Adapter assembly

As the title of the post states the Command Module and Lunar Module Adapter assembly are 90% complete see the attached pictures.  I plan to complete the assembly this weekend and move on to the S-IVB stage (i.e. third stage) assembly on Sunday.

Saturn V F1 Engine progress

Most of the parts are printed.  Of the parts that are not printed are parts that will not print on my roaddog so I will need to print them on one of my two P111 at home.  I also plan to start assembling some of the F1 and the command module today.  I'll blog on that progress as well.
