Thanks!

We made it back from the doc with two sticks each… steroid and antibIotic. Not much can be done for bronchitis, but they want to avoid pneumonia by using the antibiotic while our lungs are gooed up. I did a little paper cutting while waiting for the doc to call us to the clinic. The little...

I like this one. Does anyone know where one can find a kit or plans or drawings of the only REAL live starship, Moya?

Thanks! I do feel some better, but now my wife has the same thing. We are waiting for a call from the doc so we can go to the clinic. The wheel/tires don’t fit under the Bronco model well. I downloaded Bronco fender flair pics yesterday. Ours has the added flares so putting them on the model...

Thanks! That is the one I was looking at. I‘m still out of commission but Mike likes what I have done and will wait for me to finish it. The Bronco was a surprise.

I have never had that stuff. What brand/type do you use? Thanks for the tip!

Thanks for the compliments guys. It is much appreciated. I hope to finish this properly. I’ll keep at it. I’m not well today and at this point, I think it was the CA glue I used on the door assembly. I had two sneezing fits followed by coughing and then coughed miserably all night. I just...

Watching… :cool:

I’m not going to complete this before Christmas, but Mike will understand. I will give it to him as a work in progress. The Bronco will be in the garage. I found my foam cutter and some slabs of fine grained pink foam. As an experiment, I made the transition from the driveway to the slab the...

LOL, great work. Fun anyway. Here’s some news: The body of the Bronco, cut out and creased for folding. And, folded. Next, the roof. Here are the garage doors and hinges ready to install. And the Bronco sitting in the doorway. (The roof is out of place, I just tossed it on...

Some progress, no pics. The garage walls are reinforced and the roof is complete. I have framed the garage door opening and made the doors. They are DIY plywood, using the printed door facing and 3 layers of the veneer. They will get another printout on the inside I think. Also, the hinges are...

That deserves a place of honor. Nice work!

Thanks! It was a bit cold today for pouring concrete, so we decided to pour old concrete. LOL, I think this will work. Next to frame the garage door opening and make the roof for it. Then on to the Bronco, time is short. Interior decorating may have to wait. I also found a suitable front...

I have a plug in Dremel and two Harbor Freight units (which have worked fine). Those just seem too clunky for model work to me. I also have a battery Dremel somewhere, but it is buried and the batteries just didn’t seem to last. It may be found some day, by an archaeologist hunting relics. :skull

Then, of course, the engineer showed up. He proclaimed that the opening between the house and garage had to be reinforced. So, a custom glue-lam beam was built and installed. That will support the heavy brick arch left from removing the wall that was there. (And give me a place to put the...

Time to sit and rest. I’ve been using the ‘roof razor’ to shave off the mountains of snow on the roof. I’m too old for that kind of thing. Usually when it snows here, it melts off. Not this year. COLD and snow just keep adding up. I did get the front and rear header beams notched and the roof...

OH, neat ideas. I bought a reel of magnet wire (lacquer insulated stuff) for wiring LEDs in buildings. Then of course, I immediately found a solenoid coil I had saved for the same thing. Sigh. And, I have a roll of copper tape made for edging stained glass pieces (another hobby) that would be...

Thanks! Somehow I got it into the military vehicles instead of the civilian stuff. OOPS

I just uploaded the file to the resources section. It is waiting approval or deletion. Hope this was OK.
