It's always something you can come back to. My problem is I want to see the finished product so bad I don't have the patience to slow down. I do plan to fine tune the one I built with tubing. Some great references are (retired for now)'s build, he did a spectacular job, another good one was built by Georg B, his is posted on Zealot. The detial on his is insane, he even did the ventalation duct work on every level.

I guess you mean our German friend Michael. I can't remember Yogi building this Educraft LUT.. But perhaps Michael also might be retired. (-;

With building these big things, patience is of great importance. I found that the anticipation of seeing it finished only grows and pays off when building in a slower pace - and the result always is better. The way Paper Air is working on his 1/1 Mercury on Zealot is a good example of this. He left the big one alone for a while to build a 1/4 one (!) first to tackle eventual unforeseen problems in advance.

And I think the tubing can always be added later. It looks good from itself.

That would work out to 1:164 I think. When printed on A3 it becomes 1:116 (not HO, as Apollonia claims).
Saturn V, MLP and LUT 1:116 - Apollonia/TVC-15

Hey 10 check out this site, I use it offten. I receintly used it to jack up a model from 1/24 to 1/4. I use photo shop alot in paper modeling, when using PS. you can set the % of size of what you want to print.

Milk stools are all over, I think AMX has one and I know Lower Hudson Valley has one.
