Hi All, BigGrin

Well, this this one has been a while coming and the reason is that someone in their wisdom decided to put a two month gap between deliveries.Confused

Anyway, I`m on to it now with this update for Issue 7, the first of four updates for pack 3.

Parts supplied.....Pic 1, you will also need the frame with the two supports attached from issue 6.

Start with the new parts 07C (battle section rear neck) and 07D (neck phaser bank left). Place 07D inside 07C as shown in Pic 2. Note: this part will only fit one way as it is slightly curved.

Next, add a spring 07F onto each of the posts inside 07D, Pic 3 and then place the part 07E (neck phaser bamk left base) over the springs and fix it in place using 2 x AP screws, Pic 4. The parts should now look like those in Pic 5.

Our attention now turns to the frame from issue 6.

Place the support 07A onto the frame and fix it in place using 2 x BM screws as shown in Pics 6 and 7. Then add the support 07B, fixing that with a further 2 x BM screws as in Pic 8 and 9. The whole frame is now shown in Pic 10.

That`s it for this update, so I`ll see you soon for Issue 8.

Hi All, BigGrin

It`s time for the Issue 8 update of the Enterprise D. In this update we will replicate the neck phaser bank on the right hand side and extend the internal frame, last worked on in Issue 7.

Parts supplied.....Pic 1, you will also need the rear neck battle section 07C and the frame 06A ( both worked on in issue 7).

Take the rear neck battle section 07C and add the part 08B, Pic 2, not forgetting that the part has a slight curvature so will only fit one way. Place the two springs 08D onto the two posts in 08B, Pic 3. Then fit the right phaser base 08C fixing it in place using 2 x AP screws, Pic 4.
Pic 5 shows the battle section rear neck with both phaser banks installed.

Now bring the internal frame from issue 7 and place the new frame 08A to the left hand side, making sure that the support parts line up on the new frame, Pic 6. Then whilst keeping the parts aligned, turn them over and fix them together using 4 x BM screws, Pic 7. That completes the work on the frame for this update, Pic 8.

See you soon for the issue 9 update.

Hi All, BigGrin

The update for Issue 9 is here. In this update we extend the framework from issue 8 further and fit the first set of windows / lighting into the battle section rear neck.

Parts supplied.....Pic 1, you will also need the frame from issue 8 and the battle section rear neck also from issue 8, plus the battery pack and circuit board from earlier in the build.

We start by extending the framework. Add part 09A to the frame from issue 8, Pic 2 and fix it in place using 4 x BM screws as highlighted in Pic 3.

Next fit the clear and black windows into the left side of the battle section rear neck, Pic 4. Note: these windows are all marked "L" and should be orientated as shown to fit properly.

For the next stage of construction, you need to be very careful not to disturb the windows.

Take the led`s and bend the wires on one of them at 90 degrees to the led. This led will fit nearest the edge of the battle section rear neck. Position the led`s under the left window reflector 09D and place the reflector over the windows, fixing it in place using 4 x BP screws as shown in Pic 5. The rear neck section should be the same as shown in Pic 6. Check the windows are properly in place, Pic 7 and adjust if needed.

To test the window lights, insert the battery pack into position "F" and the led`s into position "B" as indicated by the label on the wires. Pic 8.

That`s it for this update, so see you soon for the last update of thid pack with issue 10.

Hi All, BigGrin

Well here we are at the last update for the third pack, Issue 10. In this update we will add two supports for the framework and fit the right hand lighting in the "Battle section rear neck".

Parts supplied.....Pic 1, you will also need the frame and the battle section rear neck that we worked on in Issue 9.

Place the frame on the table as shown in Pic 2. The supports 10A and 10B are fixed to the left hand side of the frame as shown in Pic 3 and secured using 4 x BM screws as in Pic 4. The frame should now be the same as shown in Pics 5 and 6.

Now turn to the battle section rear neck and fit the clear and black windows as indicated, noting that the windows are marked with an "R" and should be orientated as shown in Pic 7.

Now fit the led`s 10F and the right reflector 10E over the windows, noting the led nearest the edge of the battle section has the pins bent at 90 degrees to fit. Fix the reflector using 4 x BP screws. All shown in Pic 8. The outer face of the battle section rear neck should be the same as shown in Pic 9.

To test the led`s plug the battery pack into position "F" on the circuit board and the led plugs into positions "A and B". Pic 10.

That it for this update and pack, so I`ll see you as soon as the next delivery arrives. Cool
