Title: Cavalier USS 64
Post by: rogerz on February 23, 2008, 09:58:36 pm
I just finished this Cav 64 that I did in a theme to give to a friend for his shop.
Thought I'd share a couple of pictures.

That really looks good. Did you dismantle the whole stack and paint, or just the front plate?

No I didn't dismantle the stack. The front plate is the original paint. I just masked it off and sprayed the rest of the stack with a spray can. Then I used vinyl paint on the knobs because they were sun faded. I haven't been brave enough to take apart a stack yet.
It looks like alot of pieces to me  :biggrin:

Any suggestions on changing the light bulb? I can't seem to get my fingure in to turn in the blub. Thanks, John

If your talking about the bottle door light bulb, I used a nose pliers on the metal end to get a twist on the tube. I've also used a screwdriver to get it to turn. You only need to move it a little and then you can rotate it with your fingers.
Hope this helps.
