discussion Peter's Polar lights 1/350 Uss Enterprise -A and full lighting kit

[peterairfix]

I have had to fill pylon roots as they didn't see to meet very well
And the secondary Hull now looks like this I will be keeping the bay doors open.
And at the other end I have tidy up wiring and anything witch is 12v is marked to avoid confusion.

The deflector dish will be lit the problem with the pylons probly stem from having to take them apart a few times to correct the lighting

I have attached the pylons to the secondary Hull and tidy up the wiring.
Excuse the upside down as it's now getting rather big

Well done Peter. This is shaping up rapidly. I love the arboretum and the crew there, the shuttle bay - all terrific details. All those details and the electronics are going to make this a very special build indeed.
Looking forward to the progress
Cheers

I have lost my mojo for all things lightly uppy as the wiring was beginning to boggle the brain so I am taking a little break and I am building something a bit more straightforward but hang in there I will be back.

[peterairfix]

Bad news on this one I have just dragged it off the shelf and tested it lighting and found about four things that haven't lit up so I need to strip it back down and find the problems but I will constructing the saucer in the Meantime I will leave the other problems until the lighter days but here's what it looks like

 

[boatman]

HI Peter well sorry to hear you got problems on your enterprise an can you part the secondary hull then ? to find out what the probs are are its lookin good thankfully on my mine i dint have any probs apart from the main blue deflector light fused but as i made it so it would just unscrew it was easy to refit in a new blue big led an then it all worked ok an i hope that you can sort out your probs as im lookin forward to seeing another big enterprise an with that aztekin as in my kit it was not given so keep at it
