Building up a Robn1 Star Trek Phaser 1 Shell

[pielock373]

The Nona Phaser One
Made from a shell set fabricated by Robn1 (site and meter parts also)
Thumbwheel and krispy by Sporak
All othe parts hand fabricated by Pielock373

Hand cut parts.

Robn1 site next to the Jlong site

Cutting in and fitting all the fabricated parts

Hand fabricated surface mounted side rails, just like the originals used.

Side rails glued in place using JB weld.

Still working on linkages and electrical.

Compared to my JLong TMOST build the Robn1 shell is 1/8 inch shorter.

Rob is a member here and over at trek propzone. This shell is one of a couple test shells he produced. I am lucky to have recieved one from him.

You make it look SOOOO easy....:rolleyes

This is something I'll do after simpler projects, like an AMT Enterprise Refit model, or a full size shuttlecraft...:lol

Seriously though, I AM working my way up to one.
You & Rob are one great team. It's like Romita inking Kane.

Robn1 is working on molding issues right now, but I think it will be a limited run when he is brings it into production.
