I got the bustle basket assembled. Forgot to do that before I painted lol. The bottom of the basket is printed as one piece.
There are two individual rods that are the middle and top rungs and I thought they were the same but once I got the middle one glued it and put the top one on the top was too short on the left side to mate to the turret. I tried to flex it and make it touch and used the heat gun on it but it got cold too fast while I was tweeking it because it was just too short and it snapped. I got styrene rod same size and made a new rung just a little longer so it would fit right. Kind of a pain but oh well.
