Hey Everyone!
This is actually one of my first posts to the forum. I've been a Star Wars fan for a long time and I did a pretty standard Graflex Luke ANH build, but I really wanted to do the Yoda saber. I mean...it's Yoda.
I came across an eBay auction for two similar camera flashes - a Praco and a Service. Between the two, I had the parts I needed.
The Service-brand flash had the emitter shroud chrome thingy at the top so I took that off and put it on the Praco. I also took off the little transistor-looking thing (these are my *highly* technical terms!) and put that on the Praco. I used the grip from the Praco to be the mid-section piece and then cut the grip from the Service to be the grip pieces on the Praco.
Got my Lamborghini wheel and PEM nut on the top - here are some pictures of the progression
So...about the control box. On my kitchen counter is the fabled 1/12 scale Monogram 1967 Corvette. The problem is, it doesn't have an oil pan. Well, it does, it's just the motor/transmission is one piece split right down the middle, so it's not a detachable part. Any thoughts on where to go from here?
