    Ruppster Score

    Thanks to an OldMiniBikes member who gave me a heads up I was able to get my hands on this. It needs some work but compared to my other one this one is almost perfect. Maybe a Summer Camp 2018 project for my students? Stay tuned.

    Original Black Widow score!

    Todays score
