My Starfighter Cabinet project moved along nicely till I had to set it aside for other work here in the shop. I will be back on it in a couple months I hope.
I had intended to offer kits, but at the moment this seems unrealistic as the actual build is very complicated and kitting it even more so. A lot of the pieces really are fitted together as you go. IE, sand and fit sand and fit.
Even though I'm lucky to have Doc's original cabinet here to help out, it's still quite difficult. Without the cabinet, I'm pretty sure it would be next to impossible to build it from the plans on Doc's site, nice as they are, I wasn't able to resolve piece cuts from them well enough to use for the main control surfaces.
In the photo below you can see his cabinet and mine in process.
One thing I have done is created the side cabinet graphics and had them printed on the material used to wrap cars, so very nice material. If anybody needs such a thing contact me.
I haven't done the marquee or front cabinet graphics yet, but will as well.
Another thing to keep in mind is there is a discrpancy in the site drawings on the main side panels. Definitely use the pdf drawing as it has the correct side panels.
I have a lot of photos of Doc's cabinet and can take more if anybody wants to see more details.
