space station V

here's my build of the 2010 spacestation v by Martin Sanger
this was a quick build.only took a week to do and yes i did leave off some items.

and the rest of the build. i was't too sure of the stand but once it was all glued it's really sturdy

Very well done! Martin's version is the simplest I assume. Then comes the "simple" version by UHU02 and the detailed UHU02 version.

Wow, that was excellent!!

 

[lyter1958]

i would LOVE to have the detailed version. i like the open grid work.

You did a GREAT JOB!
Everything is clean, crisp and smooth.

Wheels are strong as any force applies goes around the structure and is absorbed well. If you have a crack in a piece of steel, many times it can be stopped by drilling a hole at the end of the crack. This gives time for welding without further damage. If a cast Iron cylinder head develops a crack, the same procedure can be done, instead of welding, a pin is pressed into hole with an interference fit, and that saves the cylinder head. The pins must be milled down to be flush with the head , of course.

@lyter1958 , great job! I can only encourage you to tackle UHU02's version His work is the "Gold Standard" for detail and brilliance I think (No disrespect to any other deisigners )

I think they would make a nice pair, I don't think they made one of these!!

Cool to see that the stand works. While Martin made the station I created the base, including the graphic.

 

[lyter1958]

the stand is great, and the graphic is perfect backdrop. the only problem i really had was when each time i started to work on it, that damn BLUE DANUBE kept playing in my head...
ooohhhh crap, there it goes again....
