Release 1.5.3 Continued I'll try to do a larger revised cleanup of the dome profile page soon.

Thanks MGagen. Everyone seems to be looking for one thing to get the monitor overhead to agree with TOS stills when it is a collective of a bunch of little things to yield that necessary space and to get it to match. 1. shifting the inner face of the inner bridge ring from 9ft 4 inches to 9 ft...

Note: Added the comparative overlay of McMaster's Monitor Overhead profile in the post above for the console. Even though 9 PDF monitor overhead is taller vertically and a taller angled face on the monitor frame face within a 7ft 3 inch ceiling with a instrument console height of 4 ft 6 1/4...

Looks great!

Bridge Console - Horizontal measurements Warning for anyone new here... * Again reminder these measurements will not work with Mc Master Consoles. This is not a 36 degree 360 bridge but a 40.4 combined view screen platforms / 35.5 degree full platforms ( 2 wide ) console bridge based on The...

ok....Release 1.5.3. My friend has now moved out now that Temps are warmer. Now No distractions. Next 3....Console Profile Final, Moniter Frame Profile, and Ceiling Face. Took some time to iron out the Ceiling face depth where the top of the Monitor Frame meet with a double wide console. Thank...

Weather setback for my friend I've been helping. With the dip in below freezing temps he had to crash at my place for a week and a half. Warmer today and now free to focus on the project. Took the time to cross check and remeasure everything and marked everything up and across on the physical...

Problem… Tried to surprise you all by releasing the rest of the bridge station build drawings today but hit a snag. I’ll put it to all of you to decide but I think I might know your responses on this. I proceeded to take my 1/4 scale build drawings of the outer ring profile and do the 11x17...

Release 1.5.2 Base of Bridge Rail / Deck Trim. Note: Where it says top for the cutout for the bridge rail on the top plate, there will need to be a angle cut to match the bottom of the top plate for the rail to fit in. The difference is 5/16 between the top and bottom to match the angle to flush...

Thank you. I’ll get the base of the rails drawn and posted later this week.

Release 1.5.1 Bridge Rail overhead. Warning these measurements will not work for conversion to McMaster at 18 degree platforms ( 36 degree full console width ) against 9PDF platform widths of 17.75 angle. ( 35.5 degrees full console width )

Rail Profile Release 1.5. I'll start on the Rail sheet with measurements this afternoon.

Line-Finder_66 The answer is yes the project is still alive. It’s just been put on hold while dealing with life problems and helping a poor friend get back on his feet. I must admit I don’t have the patience to finish the physical build and just cut straight to the finalized drawings for the...

Thank guys. This weekend is setting up to do the bridge rail and supports. Then up next will be dissembling the entire station and building the ceiling and dome upside down to measure and align on the outer ring platforms. Both should be fairly easy if I take my time. After those two are...

Had a recent inquiry if this project still had a heartbeat. It does. Things on the home front have stabilized financially, more reliable transportation, and less stress making the house accommodations stress free. Sunday is looking good for resuming work. I plan on focusing on final build...

Update: Just got the station reassembled. A bear muscling it into position by myself. Library Computer has been glued together. All set to skin the computer with sheet styrene tomorrow on New Year’s. I plan on making it a full day of working on this. Pics to follow. A few shots tonight with the...

In 1/12th scale the entire footprint of the full layout is approx. 11ft x 16 ft. ( the full layout in full 1/1 scale would be 110 ft x 160 ft ) For a idea how big that is here is a post with pics of what I had assembled in Jan 2015 in my 2 car garage. It ate up 2/3 of the space...

Thank you. I bought a 4x8 ft sheet of 1/16 styrene to see if I can skin the library computer with it instead of plaster. ( Going for easy. I’m surprised how cheap large sheet styrene is from a local plastic company. The piece I bought today was $18 each. ) I’ll use plaster for the corners only...

Long overdue update on my 9 PDF project. I’ve been moved into my new house now little over almost a year after my divorce and now at a point where things have stabilized to where I can resume work on the project. Had the profile drawings done way earlier in the year for the library computer...

Update: Went over to brother's girlfriend's house and worked out on stills the measurements, and then onto the left console to lock in the library computer measurements. Success! Built a mini console jig I can take back to the house to sculpt the library computer on. This way in the air...
