Project overview

(some of these posts are copied from the main project site)

I am planning on building the ultimate Star Wars model: a 1:1 scale Millennium Falcon with complete, correctly scaled interior. Construction methods to include a welded steel frame with marine plywood exterior skin that is weather-sealed, and a heated/cooled interior space with all the amenities that a smuggler's ship would have.

For detail parts fabrication throughout the ship (full scale greeblies, etc.) I'm currently building a 4'x8' CNC router table and a 2'x4' heavy duty vacuum-form machine.

Yes I have completely lost my mind, just like my friends say. Except for my Star Wars fan friends, who say "cool, can I help?". So, this will likely take me several years, but isn't the journey the reward after all?
