The antennas look appropriately spindly. Fine job!

Definitely worth it!

I know you said that you over-did the graphics, but each build step seems to bear out the value of your effort. Besides, if someone ever decides to do a life-size, it will hold up in the printing... By the way, the effort on the antennae was definitely worth it!

Just a note on the antennas.
From the image you shared of the rendered image, the antennas appear to have 2 pairs of antennas crossing at 90 degrees. A third pair passing at a 45 degree angle to the first two. Finally a single antenna extending straight out from the mounting stud. Whereas the antennas you have made appear to be 3 pairs mounted 30 degrees from each other, though that could just be a distortion of my view. I know it's a fiddly little detail but as someone with a little experience with radio antennas, the devil is in the detail. |

Artistic license!

Be careful of that artistic license; you could get it suspended for going too fast...

And I have the last few parts unfolded and the first bracket done. There are 8 of these brackets that hold the modules in the arms and also hold the solar panels. The panels have been laminated and are drying.
I suspect I may have all the sub-assemblies done tonight and do the final assembly tomorrow night. |

Outstanding! I am amazed at how fast this build is going and how clean you work

But assuming I don't get diverted the next few evenings I should have the initial model done by Friday night, then I'll need a couple days to finish the instructions and glue all the documents together.... Hopefully, you'll all be able to grab a copy by the end of the weekend. |
