What’s up, Plastic Addicts?
.
Work continues in the Model Shop, there’s so much to do and not enough time to do it in.
.
I want to carry on with the Lake Monster Details accurate replacement parts for the Enterprise B.
.
The aft shuttle bay is pretty easy to start with, though I did make it a bit more complicated.
.
Instead of the usual method of swapping old molded detail, I wanted to try something else.
.
For those unaware, the standard method is to drill a bunch of tiny holes around the perimeter of the detail you want to replace. Once the holes are drilled, use a knife to finish cutting the part out. Leaving an opening to allow the replacement part to be installed in.
.
However, with styrene, you can break the part out by using the score and snap method.
.
Take your knife, score the plastic, then snap away the excess.
.
Now, this method is primarily for use with sheet styrene.
.
Trying it on a molded part is risky.
.
In order to snap the part that you want removed, you have to bend and flex the kit supplied part. The possibility of warping, or even breaking the part, is extremely high.
.
As such, I’d recommend this only for experienced builders.
.
In my case it was just something I wanted to try, knowing the risks. And it worked out extremely well.
.
The benefit is that I had pretty clean lines to work with that only required minimal cutting. Rather than having to do excessive cutting/sanding/filing to leave a clean opening.
.
It’s like Quark says; ‘The bigger the risk, the bigger the reward.’
