I was thinking of a star field scroll so it looks much like in the pilot opening with stars rushing by continually, and a scroll of different ships, planets, space scenes.

True! A seamless long graphic would give you endless display options. In addition, you could exchange the "reel" and make add-ons. 
A slow turning wind up? or perhaps geared motor with a variable speed? WHERE ARE THE PLAYSCHOOL TURNTABLES? We used to use those for this kind of thing-33-45-78????
These are apparently out of production?

That's too bad. I checked out the page, lots of pics but no way or clicking on anything. They do have lots of FREE stuff though. Some pretty good models to be had there, worth checking out. They have a phone number, have you considered calling them?
Been sick from constant nasal drip due to desert allergies for 2 weeks now, but I thought I would try something, here it is, not finished yet.

Finally wrapped things up and feeling well enough to start on the large 1701 of Ron C's. The black paper I spray glued onto the backside of the print held up thru cutting and I finished off the first page of the saucer underside.
Here is the 2nd page cut out. I'm thinking of punching out the windows with a hobby rectangle tube if i can match the size.
I'm really trying to get this moving but without any sleep, just tossing and turning from the heat I guess, I'm going nowhere. I did widen a blow-up of Rawen's stargazer so the nacelles are positioned more like the hero prop, still needs to be wider. I will post some pics. Warming up the black hot melt stick for the inner ring of Ron's 1701 enlargement.
These turned out kind of weird-looking, I guess I need more light in the room.
The biggest problems I keep running into is warbling due to paper thickness, I need a metal rigidness, yet lightweight. Also, the matching up of parts has micro errors turn into huge problems as much as being able to be seen easily as not matching up. So far, cutting up the pieces into sections may solve that thru trimming the pieces so they line up. So now I'm back to printing sections up, I may have to use black foam board as an inner support of the model, a slightly smaller built-up model, and then glue the image of the paper model over it. At this point, I really don't know yet.
A few snips on the outer ring and the warbling became managable. Now to the rim, once that is done, then I can re-inforce the structure and hopefully it will look ok. My thanks to Ron for helping thru this resize and snipping into shape proceedure.
