This thing, is awesome.

Im going to watch a new hope in honour of this build (the only trek i have left to watch is ST5, AND THAT NEVER HAPPENED!)
 
Thanks for havin a look guys, so after a mini dissaster (Drilled right through the part rather than meeting an adjacient hole :mad: nothing a bit of aves wont fix) I've got all of the wires I need going through the left and right engine blocks. Next up will be replacing the fragile broken resin pipes with brass rod. It will be nice not to have to do any more drilling for a day or so lol. Must say that there's some great stuff happening with everyones builds especially sci fi and diorama, wow.

*whistles* That's alot of intricate hole drilling going on there.

Looking forward to your pipe work John. I'm sure it'll be "piping" hot. Worthy of "piping" up about. Not just a "pipe" dream.

::) Oh dear.
 
Great stuff happening here as well, John.
Nice work! I'm really enjoying this build log a lot.
 
Cheers guys, started taking off the dodgey broken pipes and replacing them with brass rod.

Allthough time consuming and there is a LOT of plumbing, I think its worth it and looks better:

Oh' yeah John that brass looks so much better. Amazing how everybody does so much prep work on their builds before they even touch paint. I really enjoy checking out your progress.
