Project sealab

moffeaton · 05-26-2011, 09:22 AM

This is not an interest or for sale thread - that will come later (soonish). This is an information gathering thread. I have a Sealab. Mike Salzo has excellent molding and casting skills. Everyone needs Sealab bits for their builds.

So what are the parts needed for which models? Lets put our heads together and identify what is needed from a Sealab to make a model!

Reply here with the parts you know, and I will update the list above! Here's a cheat sheet: Aurora Sealab III

Replace wonky parts in your pre-existing kits! Build the models you can't afford to build if you were to buy the eleventy Sealabs necessary! Get girls to like you!

qcfoundry · 05-26-2011, 09:32 AM

Jason, could you (finally someone) provide us with some good scans of this kit. I've been working from those same ebay shots and instructions for the longest time.

ckwanwoo · 05-26-2011, 09:40 AM

Hi Jason,

Please add 5 foot MF and Turbo laser on the model list.

thanks Eric.

moffeaton · 05-26-2011, 09:46 AM

Q, I will do that next week (talking a long weekend!) for sure!

Eric, thanks, added! Can you give part numbers?

As Beaz mentioned in another thread just now, we're gonna need specifics, and multiples, per design.

I too think it makes sense to group these into model-specific packs. So someone building a ______ can get a one-stop-shop purchase of all the parts they need.

But for now - let's ID, with part numbers and quantity!

ckwanwoo · 05-26-2011, 09:50 AM

Jason,

I will check the number used on my SC and Turbo laser for this weekend

For my SC, I still need some casting part of sealab.

thanks Eric.

Just reply in this thread when you do, fellas, and I will update the first post accordingly!

32" Millennium Falcon
Y-wing
Star Destroyer Devestator
Galactica

-... . .- --.. · 05-26-2011, 09:57 AM

X-Wing parts and multiples, off the top of my head:

I highlighted the section of the main tube that you need for the inner engine intakes.

Now, this is for a general hero model. It differs a bit from hero to hero, so when I have some more time I'll check my references and kit part numbers and make a few adjustments.

Treadwell · 05-26-2011, 10:14 AM

I acquired some one-piece molds for many of the parts some time ago, and don't really want to be in the casting biz, so I could offer them for some sort of future consideration. I'll dig 'em out and take some pics if you like.

joewhite · 05-26-2011, 10:53 AM

These are the parts I know of....may be slightly off.

Red 5 X-Wing -
83 (Clear) (x2 ???)
39 (x4)
19 (x2)
21 (x2)
45 (x4)
13 (x4)

Gort · 05-26-2011, 10:58 AM

Hi Jason,

This would be such a useful thing to do, thanks! - got loads of parts identified for the 5' Falcon, but as already asked, a proper set of sprue images would made cross referecning the required bits so much easier.

Cheers
Nick

moffeaton · 05-26-2011, 11:55 AM

Understood! Updated the list... still need MOAR

Colonial Movers info is complete!

J, it's actually #9 "Tank Plug" with the extra bit of detail on the cap.

Cool

moffeaton · 05-26-2011, 12:12 PM

Is part #20 used on the X-Wing too?

ralphee · 05-26-2011, 12:16 PM

Julien may know more, but Y wing.

Parts 26, 27, 45 and 71 ?

Yeah, if you take the section that I highlighted and cut it horizontally across the middle you end up with two inner engine intakes, so you need two copies of that section for a full complement of four.

Here are three castings I made of that section, which has the correct step on the leading edge:

J, I don't think #20 was used, but I'll take a look in the box when I get home.

star-art · 05-26-2011, 01:39 PM

This is off the top of my head, but for the Galactica you need:

53
74 (?)

For the ANH Imperial Cruiser, don't forget:

11

Thanks for doing this guys!

qcfoundry · 05-26-2011, 02:38 PM

jason seems to think #16 (side panel) is a sealab part?

moffeaton · 05-26-2011, 02:51 PM

Could be! I'll check tonight.

Thanks Charles! Do you have quantities?

star-art · 05-26-2011, 03:44 PM

You would ask that. . . LOL!

For the Imperial Cruiser, there are three of part #11 for each engine for a total of 9. For the Galactica, I think it's (4) of #53 and (1) of #74.

omes72 · 05-26-2011, 08:57 PM

This is great Jason. Exactly the kind of side projects I hope to see.
It will enable modelers to build & take pressure off expensive kits that most people just can't afford.
Add 4 x the long hoses for the Escape Pod.
Not sure of the number as am not home.
I'll be up for sets thats for sure.
