SERENITY - Dec 28 2005 |
With the back part in I test to see how the shuttles fit in. Not bad on this side |
Hmm this side doesn't fit in well so I will need to cut into the body more |
After grinding for some time I am covered in bits of styrene but the opening is deeper. It takes several test fits of the rear bulkhead before it sits in right |
Double checking the dept and the other side also needs to be modified too. |
In hindsight I should have scribed the door opening but I needed to mve on so I glued in the bulkheads. That is what I am calling them now since I can not think of a better word at the moment |
Glued in |
And now the messy automotive putty has been added |
All over the place |
And now after it has dried and I have cleaned it up a bit |
Pretty eh? |
Not to be outdone the other side gets the same treatment |
This is stil rough and will need several layers and sanding with the hobby putty to get a smooth finish |
So I have the week off for holidays and I have been working on quite a few projects. Unfortunately Serenity is not getting any more time than usual but maybe a bit less. Normally I update my web page at work since uploading these things is fairly quick. However doing it at home on dial-up does take a bit more time. |
