Thanks buddy!

Final build post- The outer skin....that's a wrap! The building and placement of the stations, turbolift wall, and main viewer directly affect the fit and appearance of the outer skins. 109: I started with part 45 but you can also start with part 43. This is to make the final join where the...

Actually, it took me several weeks (on and off) to build this, just needed time to post the build! Ron Caudillo

Sure! I have a "Hako" style bridge available, but it's not complete yet. Each station is a separate modular unit. I still need to design up the main viewer, turbolift (was thinking about having two versions- doors open and doors closed), and the command pedestal. It's a work in progress...

Thanks! The bridge model is 1:50, non-standard I know. I had designed the largest part to fit on either an 8-1/2 x 11 or A4 sheet of paper so that is why it is scaled like that. I have two additional versions of the bridge that is designed to fit onto 11 x 17 stock. One one of the scales is...

Next- Gluing the chairs into place (almost done!!!) 104 and 105: Use a toothpick or similar and GENTLY push it into the small cuts you made in the 8 small white circles (on the red "X") of the raised deck and the 2 on the command pedestal. You do not want these holes to be oversize, but large...

Next- The station chairs (tedious, sorry). 093 and 094: There is a difference between the front and rear portions of the chair pieces that may not be readily evident once the parts are cut out. I drew a pencil line across the rear portions of the chairs before cutting them out to help with...

Next- The crew stations, main viewer, and turbolift walls (Now it's beginning to look like a bridge!) Alignment here is very important and I recommend that you CONTINUE to test fit BEFORE gluing. 090: One at a time, glue each of the crew stations, main viewer, and turbolift wall into place...

Back from vacation, back to it. Main Viewer and optional main screens. 082: Note the fold line in the CENTER of the black vertical stripe AND the tab just to the inside of it. Cut out part 33, cut out the rectangle as indicated. Form the main viewer taking note that there both mountain and...

Me too as I would like some tips and info on the process! Ron Caudillo

I'm going to download that photo and use it for one of the replaceable viewer screens! Ron Caudilloi

Next- Station accessories (continued) For the viewers of the Library Computer, Engineering, and Environmental stations: 075: Cut out the viewer. 076: Fold up and glue together the side. 077: Fold down the top and glue onto the tab. 078{ Note that the round knob detail will be on the left...

Next- Station accessories. Computer console of the Library Computer station: 069: Cutout the computer console. 070: Fold into shape, take care to note which folds are mountain and which folds are valley. I start by gluing the monitor portion across the top. 071: Glue the side of the...

Next- The smaller crew stations. 060: Form both the top and bottom pieces, glue together as you did for the larger stations so that the red overhangs. Be sure that the edges are even. The two sides are also shown in this photo. 061: Glue on one of the sides as you did for the larger...

Next- The larger crew station continues... 053: Assembling the sides to the crew stations. Be sure that the end pieces (parts 27) do NOT extend past the end edges of the crew station top and bottom. If they do, you will run out of room as you glue them into place next to each other. It is...

That was very appreciated! Sorry the models were lost, it's very hard to move them, I know! Hopefully this will help you build a museum quality bridge! Good luck! Ron Caudillo
