This is yet another build thread for the Doopydoos resin kit but my first go at building an E11. For this build I will be making a few popular modifications so I'm interested in your feedback and suggestions ![Smile Smile](https://www.501st.com.au/forum/images/smilies/icon_smile1.gif)
Instead of starting with the traditional brown box starting pic, I'll just skip straight to the good stuff!
Here's what you get in a doopys full resin kit...

The DD magazine leaves a lot to be desired, so I grabbed a replacement off Gazmosis @ FISD.

To save a bunch of time trying to find all the right pieces for my modifications I grabbed an E11 completion set off T-Jay @ FISD.

Also Oevil1 hooked me up with a nice reticule finishing piece for the scope - Thanks Tim!

OK... so with most things gathered its time to start building!
I decided to start modifying the handle first by replacing the free/lock screw with a real screw that can be rotated.

Cut the screw down to size, grind off the resin screw and mark where to drill a hole

Done! Simple and effective!

Next was the screw at the bottom of the handle

Drilled this out and replaced with a hexagon screw

Moving onto the trigger, using a small nail and spring we can make this a functioning trigger![Smile Smile](https://www.501st.com.au/forum/images/smilies/icon_smile1.gif)

Squeezing the trigger

Lastly for the handle... make the selector switch rotatable using a nail
