Cmags; I agree there, it is a minor fit issue, and from the pic I see what you are saying, Maybe just has a bit too much, "English" lol, I was just thinking it was more off as the front edge of the part does not match the rear edge of the main piece, easy enough to fix during the build, considering the great job done on the model so far. Better design job than I ever could have done!

Well the parts will line up with each other. Once rolled, they'll both have circular cross-sections, and will meet up like a cylinder sitting on top of a cone. The diameter of the circle when the part is flat simply determines the rolled cone angle. A straight line part has a 0* cone angle - a cylinder.

Ah... I get it, I should have thought of that before, it is a lot like sheetmetal parts layout, looks a bit off flat, comes out right formed up.
Thanks man. |

Hi All;
Using Rawen's cool little TMP movie shuttle I made up a page of just the shuttles, WorkBees, and travel pods. I named and numbered the shuttle-craft to make up the full compliment of the Enterprise's shuttles, 1,3,5,7. I am working on other shuttles and shrinking Shunchi's warp sled to size. Rawen, THANK YOU again!!! for sharing so much with us. Hope you are going to make the other style of shuttle. I am uploading the set to the D/L section. Jeff |

Hey;
I thought it would be nice to have both versions of the shuttle-bay. So I resized, recolored,and added details to the earlier shuttle-bay of Rawen. I also added the side alcoves for some depth, and added the missing windows on the shuttle-bay former. I posted the page to the D/L section. Jeff |

Hi Rawen, and all.
Just a heads up , I test printed my shuttle set, page number 2 and the shuttle-bays, the Surak type shuttle is about double the size it should be as it should only be about as wide as half the STMP landing-bay, the other version of Bay is narrower and takes the smaller shuttles, The set I made up would make a nice external display to show the shuttles in more detail. I am working on resizing them to fit in the Bays. Jeff |

Uploaded the resized shuttle set to the D/L section. they will now fit the bays as they should, they came out about 1/3rd of the original sized one.

I'm passing part of the weekend working on the build of some elements of the lower hull (printed from Rawen's beta). For fun, I figured I'd work on the shuttle bays. I got the inner-most one done almost perfectly, but the outer two came out somewhat less than square - much to my frustration. Probably due to my scoring, but frustrating nonetheless.
I'm obviously missing something in the process, but what techniques do people use (hint, hint, Sidewinder ) to keep things square when folding and gluing? |

many of the parts I score I can do freehand but if I'm not sure on some of them I use a ruler and that tends to be a big help for me.
