I'm glad someone is! The refitting of the door is what took so long. The cutouts that were marked on the body shell were misaligned slightly, so I had to reposition this several times to make it fit perfectly. I'm not going to charge extra for that, as it's not your fault, Roy. The stickers are placed on there, not glued. This is soley for example. I still have to figure out the reed switch placement yet. I made these stickers from a sheet that Myron sent me via email. The ones that I bought from him are wrong, even thought they are the Roddenberry version. They're for a different tricorder altogether, but I'm not going to charge you twice for these.
All this needs now is the LEDs soldered into the lid, and painted. I'll let you buy your own battery, and charger for this. The reason being is so that you'll have compatible connectors that'll fit each other with no problem. Myron gets his off ebay, as they're cheaper, and easier to find than the local stores.
These pictures are over two weeks old. I know that this has been sitting for over a month, but parts, and paint have slowed me down to a crawl on this build. I have the LEDs now, and the reed switch along with the paint, so I can finish this, then send it back once the paint dries. I'll have to fill, and sand the hell out of this today once I get the last of the parts installed.
