Re: The Smugglers Room - Entertainment Room

What type of paint are you using on your toilet flanges to get it to stick? If it is a "chrome" paint are you running into any residue issues with it?

If you are referring to the large wooden object, that it my miter station and wood storage cart:)

Re: The Smugglers Room - Entertainment Room

I try, I freak out if its too much of a mess.

I don't have that affliction... :lol

I get teased a lot because I'll just work on top of the mess, and then it gets messier... And messier...

Just ask Caveneau, Dave Porter, or neilo1!

So you are an artist? That's how my father puts it. His shop is a complete and utter disaster!!! yet he can find ANYTHING he has ever seen in that mess. "Yeah, its over there under a red plastic strip with vent thingies on top, which is under an old fan blade, which is next to . . ." and you get the idea.

Actually yes. I'm an Art Director by trade. :lol

I start to misplace things when I clean up...

Re: The Smugglers Room - Entertainment Room

Thanks king, its a big tough to move around when its full of lumber, but it is a great piece so far.
 
Re: The Smugglers Room - Entertainment Room

Well, I took a slight detour today. I am waiting for parts to finish my light, but i had the day off so I couldn't just sit around. So a long awaited project that is going in the room has begun!

I was able to get a little help from DarthCromer, and he was kind enough to hook me up! Thanks Darth!


At any rate, here we go!

Its funny, but his head looks awfully big. I know it will look different once it is complete, but it took me by surprise how odd it looks in this format.

Re: The Smugglers Room - I've taken a slight "HIC" Detour!

Nice!
I've always (well, for a couple of months) wanted one of those Han's. It would make for a great wall hanging!

Epic to the Max!

Love this project ! Very inspiring.

I know man, I've read a half dozen posts as to angled or not to angel. It's my understanding that Empire had straight sides and ROTJ had the angled. Am I correct about that? I thought I was? At any rate, I decided to go straight thinking I wanted an Empire version. So If I'm wrong, I'm going to have to make te box again!!!!

Other way around I'm afraid... :(

Empire was angled, ROTJ straight.
