Yep, lets see few things, after all its only 11 days and 12 hours until I
open my christmas present (acting pleased will be easy, surprise I'll have
to work on).

Also, from pictures it looks like the outer edges of the upper/lower hull
(with the stepped plates), looks a litle rounded. Any comments?

Has anybody out there who's got a Star Destroyer experimented with some

I got mine finished (in a mere 14.5 hours!), and it's all together in one
piece, but I don't feel good about four magnets and three "latches" holding
the underside plates on.

I've been thinking of ways to shore up the structure, maybe by attaching the
underside plates to the central spine more permanantly.

Anybody got any ideas?  I was thining maybe some of those 2x4 hinge pieces
(sorry, I don't know the correct terminology - the ones that open and close
like alligator jaws) might be useful.  Maybe 10 or so to a side connecting
the inner edge of the internal frame to the plates?

Any other great thoughts out there?
