@Lock I've gone back through all 43 pages and I've seen some good ideas but I still keep coming back to Marshall's. 

@Vouatch thanks. That gives me a new direction to go in. Did you see his original post or are you like me trying this from the beginning? Time to use Studio.io

@eddmont never seen the original post, but I have lego 75040 that let me imagine this way. And I'm working on doing an ATAT by my self with minifig scale, so big round tile and other are in my mind.

But I did it this morning only to help forumers + build challenge, and will not realise it on my falcon.

@Vouatch thanks. I keep racking my brain to figure it out.

Maybe I’ll give it a try in the next days (if LDD still starts on my old Mac). :)

Your work was really appreciated (by me anyway), Come on, the falcon squadron need you again lol

@Vouatch that was quick. I was still trying this out in Studio. Are you willing to share the LDD file? I missing going to try it out.

Ahah, I see you have brilliantly solved the problem. :)

It's always a problem to share files online. If you haven't a dropbox account, you can send me the file (raccspam@gmail.com, it's the spam email, eh eh) and I'll share a link for everyone from my blog files directory.

No password, after a test, works directly and perfectly

Strange, got a password pup-up. Tried another App...still the same. It prompts me for a password.

Edited November 8, 20204 yr by tismabrick

... strange, I work with chrome and uBlock... direct file download when clicking the link

I was able to download the file. When I try to open the zip archive then I get a password pup-up.

sorry but there is no zip... the link point direcly on io file

Problem solved then :) When I downloaded it it had the suffix .zip. No idea why...

Already ordered the parts for this mod. Looking forward to the end of the week now.

Wow... Hope all is ok lol, may be it could need some tuning... let's give feedbacks !

I've got the same warning from Gmail when I've received the file from Vouatch. Maybe Stud.io saves projects as a zip file with a different extension. Anyway you can ignore it; there's nothing to extract, just open it in Stud.io.

No idea why you ended up with a .zip extension. Maybe your Mail program was fooled by the archive and added thet extension. :)

It may be a stupid reply, but remember to order 2x. :P

I have the majority of the parts, mainly needed the technic link tread and wedge plates. I’ll post some pics once I put it together unless someone beats me to it.

Thanks for the reminder. Before I uploaded the inventory I did double it. Good for every one else to know

Good to see someone finally replicated the Marshal docking rings. I posted about it a while ago in this thread and got no response. If I had money to spare then I would buy the pieces to make them, any idea how much it would cost?
