Thanks!
I've written up some detailed notes on Tony's 3D printed parts on my site, for those interested:

Okay - exciting news for less experienced modelmakers who want an Original Trilogy Falcon based on the Bandai model!
I was working yesterday on cutting out the Bandai radar dish mount, and finding it slow and fiddly. And I got to thinking - you know, this really isn't something that a new or inexperienced modelmaker is going to want to take on. It's hard to do without messing things up!
So I mentioned this to Tony and suggested he consider a modified version of his 3D printed part - a radar dish mount that simply fits directly over the existing Bandai mount. That way someone with less obsessive focus on getting a screen-accurate model could slap an Original Trilogy dish on there with the minimum of fuss.
And guess what?
