Looking Awesome! Looks like there's more than meets the eye!
Impressive model... One day...
As for the paper thickness I mostly use 160gr/m2 or 220gr/m2. Last for bigger models.
Never a big issue: who can fold exact at 0.07mm.
Papermodelling has a build-in correction bandwidth, this way.

Hi Toutenkarton, 100lb = 271gsm is for cover paper. For offset/print/book paper it is 100lb = 165gsm. So both is possible
So I only printed the module, LES will print later. I decided to print on 190 gsm paper.
Also i have prepared but not yet printed the dashboard lighting mask. I will print on film and tracing paper, I don't know yet what will look better.

Good luck with this build. This is going to be a long journey. I'm sure you will have many followers.
I look forward to this build.

Instruction - SECTION 5
Started with the Main control panel. After looking at several assemblies, it seemed to me that there were not enough rivets. How do you like these rivets, like real ones?

I wrote to him, but have not received an answer yet.Did you make contact with Ken L. West? I am assuming you did?
The rivet looks pretty good. If you don't mind me asking what did you use for the rivet effect?
It's nice to see you have started this project. I can see already you are giving it a lot of thought.
I feel this is going to be a build thread to keep our eyes on and I'm sure I will learn from it.
Thanks.

I am going to make them from bga soldering balls. I wanted to buy them for a long time, and I bought them in a store with electronic components. They are not very expensive for a bottle with 25 000 balls, I paid a little more than 3$
They come in various sizes from 0.2mm to 0.76mm. I have 0.65. The 0.2 balls are very small and very difficult to distinguish in the bottle.
In order for the ball to become a rivet, I simply press it into the cutting mat using a flat metal object. The ball pushes the mat and flattens itself on one side, resulting in a rivet-like shape.

I know Ecardmodels.com was carrying it for him, don't know if they still are though?
Did you try this link?
