DD 886 u.s.s. Orleck design process

[FRD]

Temporary delay, I wasn't happy with that case at all as it was, "makeshift" or, "temporary" until I could get better materials and optimize the design, instead of the angles being scored and folded, I'll just heat form them, with Mylar it's easy.


Another thing that I was not happy about was the depth of the recess, twice as deep as needed, by making this alteration, the reflective tape is no longer require as the trim pieces alone at half the width will, "do the job" quite effectively.


Stay tuned, it shouldn't take long as I now have the proper materials and the model is back out of it's case, it was taken to the ship last week just to show them that it wasn't just, "a figment of my imagination".


Well into the 2D graphics now with a momentary pause to remedy this case.

WOW!

What an event!, a spectacular sight that is a, "beauty to behold" for so many who have worked so hard to bring it into fruition.

It is truly a, "Major Milestone", the pier has been resurfaced, reconfigured and lighted, able now to accommodate large events at 600 feet (182.88 M) long, essentially TWO NFL football fields!

It appears similar to an Flight deck!

There are 76 Sunset Sconce Lania lights (Sunset Lighting Design, LLC) installed on the pier only, none on the ship currently.

The lights are low voltage lighting fixtures that operate on 24 volts DC and are fully dim-able, they can be control via remote to change the lighting colors. Over two dozen lighting colors are available.

The lights are fully rated at 18 watts each, however the typical user mode uses about 6 to 10 watts each light. There are 76 lights in the entire system lighting up pier area, we will consume approximately the same amount of energy as a nine single 75 watt light bulbs.

It was a great event and I was honored to be invited!

Onced you have used flattery to flatten a shape how do you export multiple parts.

[FRD]

I don't use anything to flatten parts, it's all done manually, that's why it is so time consuming, I, "flatten" everything in my AutoCAD drawing and then export everything into corel draw for the 2D graphics (what I'm doing now)
