super work

 

[Rhaven Blaack]

This is looking really good!!!

 

[gilgamesch]

this part is a "little" more complicated and complex…



only a few small adjustments and Part 4.2 is finished, too.

 

[Vger1981]

This is going to be much bigger than I thought, are you going to build those columns, cranes, etc.? :wideyed:

 

[gilgamesch]

Current goal is to achieve this - almost:

 

[Vger1981]

:woot::jawdrop: veery nice and detailed!

 

[biggusdoggus]

are you going to be putting some sort of armature inside the gantry to prevent droop and to support the Betty?

 

[gilgamesch]

yes, not sure what kind of armature. may a kind of wood or aluminium profile. For the conection between teh Betty and the Augira I'm thinking about an acrylic plate with walkway grid on it.
But first I've to finished the template…

 

[Rhaven Blaack]

WOW!!!
If that is your goal, I wish you all the BEST of LUCK!!!
I am looking forward to seeing it!!!

 

[Vger1981]

I'm voting for two towers and dual clamps with magnets inside!

 

[skoda]

so it is super job


how will the ship anchored Betty

I am concerned that the magnet will not hold my ship

 

[gilgamesch]

Thanks. I think the ship need an armature or reinforcement also.

 

[gilgamesch]

segment 5 is ready for my printer…

 

[Rhaven Blaack]

That looks FANTASTIC!

 

[skoda]

Some of the curved shapes are really tiny… maybe to small.
