Builds By Baz - Full scale MKII Colonial Viper

[BuildsByBaz]

So far I've not been able to raise the money I need to purchase steel, suspension, braking and electrics to build this trailer. I have a heap of stock on my shop, but no luck selling yet.

In my bored state of waiting, I decided to gather together some scrap aircraft engine parts, shed offcuts, a rusty old steel bucket and a box of brass and copper scrap components.

I put together a bit of a FrankenBaz engine facade, totally non-cannon, and cut a hole to fit it into the top of the port engine nacelle. I soldered my first circuit board ever and gave it some blinking lights to bring it to life.

I like it.

That's fantastic, Baz!

 

[Lojak]

YO! What a build!

Here's how simple and fast it is to fit a wing to the Viper as a one-man operation.

This is just amazing! I never watched the original show, but loved the reboot from 2003. This build is just, wow!

I know I said:
> Mate that looks sharp!

But that wasn't exactly what I meant.


Just kidding - I think it is ... awesome beyond words to see it is going on public display. If it wasn't so far I'd be there!
I'm sure you'll dump an album full of photos someplace so please link it back here so we can all see.
