Hi all,

After 3 freelance jobs, one sci-fi convention, and a boatload of stuff that
just took up my time, I built my pod. Not just any pod, mind you, but a pod

More pics can be found by changing the pod number on the above tags. There are
7 pics total.

and the folder to open when it's moderated:

Thanks!

This is Awesome. I expect 2 more pods, and then you can fit them into a scale model of the Discovery itself. :) Anyway, nicely done. I wouldn't worry about the rear hatch. I think it slides into the ship horizontally, and I can't think how you could (...) (22 years ago, 9-Sep-02, to lugnet.space)
