What’s up, Plastic addicts?
.
The central antenna on K7 has a navigational flasher at its peak, so I had to figure out how to accomplish that.
.
In the end I decided to salvage the base and the peak and join them with a 3/32 brass tube. Something big enough to allow the 1mm fiber optic star and to pass through, without being out of scale.
.
The process wasn’t too complicated.
.
Cut away the parts you want to keep. Find center and drill 1mm holes (yes, I know finding center can be difficult, just do your best).
.
Next I used a 3/32 drill bit to make a shallow indent. This is for placement of the brass tube. Once it’s in place, CA glue it in and repeat for the opposite end.
.
If all goes well you can slide the fiber optic strand through then glue it to the dome.
