You needn't thank me. I'm more than happy to help people and show that you don't have to spend huge money on garage kits when you can make your own. It's kind of become my mission in life. To show that anyone can do this and it isn't a mystery.

It's coming along great. I'll have more photos today. Got behind in real life stuff and had to give my house and wife some attention, not to mention the car and the truck..... it never ends.

Here you go. this was done in days, while working on other projects and doing the "Honey Do" thing. Trust me anyone can do this. Soon these parts will be ready to cast, or wrap in fiberglass. Days, not weeks...... Days, not months...... Days, not years.

After cleaning up the framework....

attaching next sheet...

Forming up the pylons with balsa wood laminate.

Almost ready for casting.

Don't buy, it build it. Don't think about it, Do it!

WOW! That looks Great. Can't wait to see this finished!

CJTK1701 · 01-24-2008, 09:39 PM

Hey, I just built it, I didn't create it.

Wait till you see the Klingon D-7 come together.

Safety notice. Please follow the recommendations in this thread.Anyone know of any 'safe' alternative to expanding foam?

I never really experience much trouble with the expanding foam and used it mainly outside, or in a well ventilated area, but just to be on the safe side, please follow along with that thread. Also, there is no need to use to much foam and over do it, the foam will expand nicely.

OK, I finally got a little time to work on this. Ir's not a bid deal, just more expanding foam. I had expected to get more done, but the weather is crazy and I can't do some things in the cold, energy slowing down due to temperature and all that.

Anyway, I filled the body with foam. Not a great, quantum leap.

Soon. Unfortunately the last week has been consumed with transporting a 1965 Ford Galaxy from PA, shoveling snow, and takin care a bidness.

Here is an example of what a Professional publisher put ot in the way of a paper model. I have to say, what I've seen around here is far more superior.
