Thumbs up New Design: XPL Experimental

I almost submitted this design late last night, until I decided it needed some more detailing. Hence the birch "Dowel Detail" assemblies (the middle dowel is 1" from the front of the body tube), which also added some additional nose weight. Then I threw the 3 CR-1013 centering rings on as well.

Surprisingly simple, but it follows my general design philosophy of, "Put a *bunch* of different-looking parts together."

(This is what I get for hanging out with JP. )
