Project SG-69 -- Photos!

[kproche]

Here, as promised, is a set of photos of progress to date.

	Pile of Foamcore The raw materials
	Pattern on the foamcore The main ring segment tacked to the 1/2" foamcore for tracing
	Tracing Tracing around the segment pattern with a Sharpie&tm;
	Tracing the trim elements The outer trim segment pattern tacked to the black foamcore. For these I used a silver Sharpie&tm;
	Main segments laid out A sheet of main ring segments ready to cut (note the first tracing that was the wrong size, they are the ones curving down)
	One main segment One main segment cut out of the foamcore with a utility knife
	Laminated Trim and main segments All the segments, with the trim arcs laminated to the main pieces thanks to Super 77 spray adhesive
	Laid out for painting The ring segments laid out in the backyard for painting.
	Painted with hammered metal finish Voila! First a coat of Rust-Oleum&tm; primer for plastic, then a coat of grey hammered metal finish spraypaint
	Closeup of hammered metal finish This stuff is pretty cool!

Oh -- and a big shout out of THANKS to lobolance for helping me do the topcoat so we didn't miss any of "Lost" last night. :-)
