Friday August 11th: All markings glued in and they're adding the rubber cushion.

Each panoramic image on this site was stitched together from 4-5 digital images with a program called the Panorama Factory. Because I didn't use a true panoramic camera there will be some distortion, especially at the ends and horizontal lines.
