I met with Alec Peters today here at my home shop and he brought me some goodies I'll be restoring. Two Phoenix models and the original Greg Gein Sisko Daedalus which is ironic.
Restoring Star Trek Models for the Propworx Part 1
Enjoy the show.

Too cool! Looking forward to following your progress.
Good to see they are interested in bringing it to someone that will do it right. I'm sure they will love it as much as you will love doing it. WIN/WIN!!
I am looking so forward to this!!! I love the Daedalus and I'm cant wait to seeing her up close. Hopefully soon we will be seeing the Galileo up close as well!!
Steve, you have turned into the poster child for, "Be careful what you wish for".
What's next, the Enterprise in the Smithsonian.
You were wishing for more work, it happens to my Wife all the time.SteveNeill said:
I thank you all. Max. Ah OK.

If anyone can find me some pictures of the other Phoenix, not the First Contact version please help.
Thanks,
steve
With the Clipper project winding down, it's nice to see more subject matter for the videos. I've gotten used to them and look forward to them; glad you've got the work to keep you busy!
It's no where near winding down yet! We still have to finish all the panel lines and make molds. Then after all that make parts and build the model. Then there's the XR-1 from Man in Space. All 4 ft. of her that will be used in Space command. Lots more for a long time.

I'm apparently off in my time estimates, but I'm happy to hear I'm wrong!
You're very close to getting your picture on my bedroom wall.
I love the Pheonix. Looking forward to these vids.
Think I may know what that Tonka part is.... Gonna try and find it in THE PITT that is my shop.
Steve,
Looking forward to seeing these models brought back to their original glory! This very Daedalus model you are restoring was my inspiration for building the USS Essex for myself.
Someday, I want to scratch build a nice size Phoenix!!

SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much better than the original or mine. Love it!
Really looking forward to watching more vids of you putting these model's back together. Been loving your work specially how the clipper is coming together. Make sure to take lots of reference pics of the Phoenix's you know how it is on here its only a matter of time before someone will want to do a scratch build of one of them.
