To parody a line from the series
"Who would make a gigantic red trash can with no brakes and three million years on the clock?"
Answer... me !!!![Smiling3 :smiling3: :smiling3:](/smiles/Smiling3.png)
So here we have the start, its around 1:10,000 (ish) the size and shape will be predominantly the ship built for series 10, with maybe a few little changes from bits i like from the other versions from earlier series.
Started with cutting two circles from melamine furniture board and made the shell up from an old picture frame hardboard backing and an old memo board... filled gaps with bathroom sealant
There was a bit of the old Pythagoras and 2-π-r going on for a while but i'm sure i'll be ok in a few days
anyway here's the base from which i might smeg it up completely![Smiling3 :smiling3: :smiling3:](/smiles/Smiling3.png)
