Re: Rogue One - Death Star plans Hard Drive

Not exactly a beauty shot, but building up the 'open' side is progressing. Waiting on aluminium rod before completing the handle section.

Progress on the drive internal details :)

I cut the circuit board from 3mm blue perspex. The surface film is left on as a mask, then the graphics are cut and oversprayed with white paint. Same technique used on the dials, 1mm white HIPS, then oversprayed with black.

Hope to have this nailed by end of week/early next.

Here we go!

Finished build. The camera didn't pick up the engravings on the clear panels, so I've darkened a shot a the end to show them more clearly. The next step is to make a two-part silicone mould of the main chassis.
