Scratch Build – Complete Cor Leonis

just awesome. just awesome... whoaa

 

There aren't much buildlogs where I scroll through an update like 4-5 times to see every detail ..

 

This one of my favorite projects , awesome awesome

 

Such a small arc to compound the bending process.

Great solution, and of course wonderful work done.

 

Thanks guys.

It's great that you are finding this useful as well as entertaining.

Haha, sure go ahead, er......son. There's no reason that the plex should be too scratched up, but there are a couple of marks here and there. It doesn't really matter though, it will all be painted.

Thanks John. I hope you are a bit more comfortable these days.

Thanks, you know I'm still waiting for an update on your build.

Thanks Wayne, I do jump in when I can, mainly at the insistence of my daughter. She never wants to get out. But it really does make me feel a lot better, very therapeutic.

Thank you all, I'm happy that you are enjoying the project.

Nice bit of poetry there Craig.

Reading this tread I had desire to remove own treads from this forum
Beautiful design, great implementation and unsurpassed skill

 

Inspiring. I suspect you made bejeweled swords for kings in a previous life.

Fantastic work attila, i admire your sense for detailing and make averything fit exactly! i've tried a couple of times myself but i always leave some small little detail that will bother me till i die... '-_-

Dude, your skills are amazing! You have mad experience, and I give you mad props! Keep up the good work! Also, you inspire me!

 

Thanks for the kind words guys.


Over the last two days I finished up the frame for the other side.





And mounted it to the central tie.







Fitted the skin and countersunk the holes. Also cleared the threads after c/s.



And the shape looks good.





But the big test was how this section would behave once the screws were undone. Would it twist and flex into a grotesque shape? Nope, it didn't budge. The mounting holes on the plex wings didn't move out of alignment with the corresponding holes on the bulkheads.





While I was checking the fit of the top with the side panels, a thought hit me. Does the PSU still fit? It's been about a year since the PSU was in the chassis, so I dug it out (this took a while), and hastily fitted it.







But I needn't have worried. There is plenty of room, even for a much larger unit.



Back soon.

 

Is the bar going to be illuminated in any way Attila?

 

No, this entire section will be painted. Inside and out.
