Super job. More nitpicking: the real fanatics line up the screw heads to the geometry of the piece. For instance the Dekatrons would look nicer if the screwhead slots would form a circle too.

Quarter turn before breaking is the right torque ;) Again, super job. Be prepared for a lot of brass polishing.
