    I have yet to see once of these ships with perfect (relatively speaking) saucer section seams. I think it's the nature of the model. I have a next generation Enterprise, it's huge, made of plastic, and the saucer section seams were off on that too. Maybe different heat from different mold...

    My animals.

    I have a friend (well, used to be friend) that would poach huge turtles from the swamp next to me. He would make delicious soup out of them (one at a time), then polish the top shell. The would be translucent. He got $1000's of dollars for them. He did finally get caught, but since they did...

    Is there a SeaQuest?

    Upload the file to this thread as a zip file, I, or someone else can probably convert it to .stl for you. ;)

    Mike, I'm also retired. Good to know you're keeping busy and enjoying your retired life. :)

    Chopper motorcycle build progress

    I've built all of this kind of stuff before, over many years. I Administrate this forum and sometimes, actually, many times, I can help and do help people up their game. If I build I trike, I'll have to be able to ride it. I'm doing a lot of 3D printing, trying to make some models in the 3D...

    I think the Sea Quest project may have been sea-questored.. :)

    Pz.Kpfw.IV Ausf.H, GPM 1:25

    I instantly noticed the error!! Yeah, right, that model is not up to your standard. When finished, please send it to my address (PM me), and I will properly place it where it deserves to be, in an Argon Gas filled box for permanent preservation on my fireplace. ;)

    Mike, I love your Turtle. While reading the thread and looking at the pieces, I kept on thinking "Soup!" for some reason. :)

    I really like that trike, where have you been hiding that? I was going to purchase a real Suzuki GS1000G to convert into a trike, but the "bassturd" sold it out from under me. I drove 1.5 hrs. there to pick it up. Needless to say, I was quite angry. He made the mistake of showing me a couple...

    One, if not, my favorite Star Trek ship. This ship looks robust, and made to fight. No long nacelles sticking way up on pylons, this ship is a brute. It would work in any SciFi show as far as I am concerned. Great choice. :)

    If you take just a bit of my advice, with my background in motorcycles (I've built quite a few real ones and presently own three), I could have you making motorcycles any which way you want. ;)

    Oh, your threads are on my permanent radar. I like the way you fabricate things. I hope maybe I can share another aspect. I have made many pats for people. I just need parameter dimensions to work within. If that ever interests you let me know. For instance, I could make you a V-Twin...

    There are virtually no Hobby shops in Connecticut. The couple that are left only sell R/C stuff, and the other is new, I don't think he will last. He has no raw stock, none of them do. The first shop used to have a huge display with it. I don't know why when the young guy purchased it, he...

    It used to be you could get a lot of the materials to do this kind of fabrication at Hobby Shops, it seems that all of them (in this state, CT) just do R/C and a couple of models. They have no raw materials for ma \king anything. The forks look excellent! The tanks foundation is right on. :)
