Hello, everyone. After building my new B-Wing kit, I thought the dock didn't
look very practical, as it held the cockpit out of reach of both the ground and
the dock platform itself. So, I used the same pieces to engineer a different
dock that cradles the ship in the opposite orientation, with the cockpit
suspended just off the ground for easy access. I have no idea if this
"canonical" with the Star Wars universe.

Photos and an LDraw file are available at my long-dormant Brickshelf gallery:

When I get a chance I'd like to render step-by-step instructions, too.

Most of the details are arbitrary attempts to reuse all the original pieces that
were left over once I got the basic support worked out. I'd love to hear what
you think and any ideas you have for improving it!

Jim
