Hi All,
I’m nearing the end of my DeAgostini Falcon build, and almost ready to assemble the top and bottom saucers. I’m curious about the sidewall modification where you mount the metal support pieces on the inside to buy more room for the side sections to better match the filming miniature.
Has anyone successfully done this? I’m not finding much info about how you actually attach the pieces, since the screws won’t work going the other direction.
I read that someone was buying small nuts to catch the screws on the back side – is that correct? Not sure how you would tighten those with the top on and no access to the inside. Any info is greatly appreciated!
Here are some pictures of where I’m at with the build.
