Are you talking about this scene In he's office ? It's the same pattern but not exactly like the buckle they made for the Spaceballs , a bit more details on the wall piece and finesse compare of the buckle piece .

I'm working on the new vac form table to do this beast ... the dome master mold is in cure under the sunshine ray to make it the dryer as possible to sand the lightly imperfections of it . I didn't receive all the material to make the vac form table ( my old one have 24"x24" and I need a 28"x28" for make the dome ) I also receive my mig welding machine last week .. .Yay ! ... I'll keep you all in touch

sorry for the delay

Joe
