1:1 Millennium Falcon Console Replica

UPDATES!

I've been working on the throttle housing and surrounding greeblies...

Adding paint and clear coat


Cut the hole in the housing to accept the two other throttle pistons


Added some bolts to bulk up the greeblie




Slowly coming together




The bolts go through the MDF so there is no need to adhere the greeblies - they just bolt into place...


More to come

Things are moving along at a snails pace right now. I'm waiting for a few things to arrive for the LEDs and the throttles. But should be picking up the pace very soon. Thanks again.

Lol. It's painful every time I see there's a new post in this thread I rush over to see new progress!

Looking damned sweet, man.

It's my first post in the community after being suscribed long ago, and I was sent here by a friend who knows how much I love Star Wars just to watch your work. It's damn good what you are doing, I have to say it

Ah.... Pictures. Sweet sweet pictures...

Hi Raz,

Hey OB,

Pics are fun! I find myself looking at the pics more than I do the actual build sitting in the other room - odd, huh?

Thank you, Sir! Didn't get as far as I would have liked... But the weather is FINALLY cooling down so I should be speeding up!

Sorry for the lack of updates. I've been in conferences and workshops all week and have been exhausted by the time I get home. Also, no parts have shown up... GRRRRR...

Stay Tuned... More to come... I promise

Don't rush the calculations. We don't want to jump into an asteroid or something...

Hi Gang,
