    Now that I have 2 of these ships and bb26 is rebuilding his which I built for him and has seen 1 Can-Nats in New Brunswick Canada and 2 IRCWCC Nats. I thought it be nice to see them again in her glory after she was commissioned from the Stokamoto shipyard. Anybody else building one just to let you know this ship is really a nice looking ship. You wouldnt' know it from the black and white actual photos of her. There's a beautiful 3D render of the ship as well online.
    So Welcome aboard the ship for your tour as an enlisted crewmember .

    Mirror tabs are holding down the deck. Part of a servo arm. Nothing fancy. Just a piece of plastic that is screwed into the deck rail that will turn to keep the deck in place.
