Thanks for the feedback Lindsay. I'm not sure if it's accurate in terms of
size. It was done primarily from memory (and I've only seen AOTC once) and a
vague picture I managed to find online. Technical details on the booster
ring seem to be lacking so I basically just did what looked right to me at
the time.
The clamps are not 'absolutely' required to support the starfighter but
without them it doesn't quite sit properly and slides out very easily.
