I would recommend powering this off of a ac/dc converter, maybe with a DC to DC converter to keep it clean, especially if those lights are not easily replaceable. If it was an over voltage situation, a Varistor could prove most useful as it will shunt and not any amperage through. We look forward to you updates, and some pics of the surgery, if you wouldn't mind.

Tank you all for your support. The sadness is way back of me. There is something right here..... "do nothing quickly...think before". I was mad about my self because I new that it was the normal thing to install a protection on the line but...... Mad about my self becaus I looked forward to showing it to you with the lights switched on.

As would say my mother "Nothing arrives for anything. We have always something to learn about something and usually the hard way and that's the human thing".

After cooling down and after reading your comments, I'm ready to start the repair and it will begin today. I do not think that will be difficult but long and meticulous.

I will post some pics.

It is coming back to life.
It is looking stunning.

Are you gonna put it on a stand or such?

Danscrew · 07-17-2012, 01:01 PM

The lower left main engine is complet. I only have to fix it on the ship. More pictures to come.....

For the stand, I mounth something temporary made from recuperation things. First of all I wanted a diorama.....a big diorama but more than I look this stand, more I think I will paint it and keep it like that.

I don't know............I'm open to suggestions

Looks like a documentation of a repair job after a Cylon attack!! Well done!!

Danscrew · 07-19-2012, 09:21 PM

The bottom left engine is glued to the ship. The next step, the right engine and some adjustments and details.

Wen this step is finish, I will show you with the lights on.

Hope you will love it.....
