    OMG. I just noticed the holes in each corner of your board, I don't have my tech manual handy, I guess the small platforms are moveable?

    SWEET! What a piece of work. Gratz again. I'll try let someone else post next.

      Thanks again. The picture you linked to is a Next Generation set, while I was making the one from the original series.

      Here is a reference picture I used:


      Yes the small board are movable. Each large board has holes in the corners to accept the smaller boards. However, moving the boards around have a good chance of knocking down the pieces.

        DA-YUM! That is what I call a work of love!

        You, my friend, must have patience of gold to work on something that small!

          That is way cool. The prices are very inexpensive as well. I am sure that you will do well with these. So I guess the only question really left here is what is YOUR NEXT MOVE as it pertains to custom work. You pretty much went and out done yourself here. I would be interesting to know what else you have up your sleeve for later? Thanks for sharing!

                  $22 for the 3-D Trek set (3-D board + 32 chess pieces). Plus $3 for shipping in the US. PM me for details or if you have any questions.
                  SOLD! Thank you.

                  Wow. I haven't bought anything from a post/this site in so long. I don't feel like such a Troll anymore now.


                  I've had a busy weekend. I think 20% of my current posts are from the last 3 days...

                  Thank you. I'm looking forward to the set. Now I have to get a Dida Display and make a Briefing Room for Kirk and Spock to play in...

                      You know....since you obviously have the equipment necessary to do so....any chance of putting together a Trek Burke style chair from the original series?

                        I'm working on some chairs, but the curve back is difficult for the way I'm making it. I may compromise with a rounded seat but straight back.

                            I have also asked ctc (I think) about this. He makes the 3D Klingon Disruptors. I also worked on a Trek fan film as you may know and the FX company that did some work for the movie made a miniature Engineering Room! I have been trying to find them and ask if they will at least make one Mego Chair that we can try to replicate. They could do it. I wish I had a picture of that Engineering Room. It was awesome.
