    No worries as long as we can get Tayor in his seat all will be fine.
    If a Mego figure of God did not exist, it would be necessary for EMCE to invent him.

        No more worries at all. The bases are mounted and you can spin the seats into almost any position.

          Looking good. Re-assembing this thing is going to be a biznatch.

            That was the easy part. I spent all of yesterday tearing it down, repainting the floors, attaching the seat bases (and underside supports), and then rebuilt the ship while video taping it so you have assembly instructions.

              It sounds like a nightmare....that's almost over in this world gone mad.

                Hahah. "It's a bloody nightmare". And yeah, we're inches away from completion. You can see on those two rear chairs i just need to complete the finishing and rear framing, and add the seatbelts to all. Are we ready to entrust this to the USPS?

                  Nice! I'm standing by the door. I won't cry in public about backing out of the exterior.

                      Don't worry about it. This is Brent's ship. It's rear wall matches the one your going to display this spaceship up against.

                      That could be cool. I could scale down the original cardboard mockup. I don't
                      know if i want to go all through that again, though. But i still have the Betty Crocker escape hatch. LOL:

                            Excelllent work! I can't believe it. The seatbelts look great. Church bells have been ringing all day. They must have gotten the news that the ship is DONE!!!!!

                              LMAO! Thanks so much! Yeah, the seat belts came out real nice. I recycled those harnesses you sent me and got extra matching material from an unused camera bag. I'm putting together a video to include with the shipment so you'll have DVD setup instructions when the ship arrives. I'll contact you shortly with those details. Hard to believe, but i guess this thread can be moved to the completed projects folder. Hopefully you can add some new pics there when you have the ship setup.
