It can be done, with a steady hand, sharp eye, and a bit of patience.
Plus, the Hercules is a bit on the boxy side, which should make matters

If I can be of further assistance. let me know...
Dave D. (gonna hopefully break aluminum soon

But my common sense makes me realize, this is how you need to make it for
playability purposes...
Thanks for the clarification.
