I've been trying but I always fall back to the same problem which is attaching the gantries (that hold the clamp) to the underside of the walkway up the top. The weight of the TIE Fighter is just to great for two measly supports to hold. I'm obviously trying to replicate the movies as much as possible, and don't want too many supports or gantries in the way to obscure the view of the Fighter which is what everyone will want to see. I have come up with an idea of resting the Fighter on two supports rather than clamps (excuse the colours and poor choice of supports, it was a rush job): It holds up quite well but after a while the supports give way to the base plate up the top. As you can probably tell I'm perhaps not the best bricker around, I much prefer to collect. But this has me irritated and interested all at the same time!

Surely not. The one in the MOC has many more studs, and plus its more like an upside-down "U" in the MOC where as the brick you are referring to wouldn't attach around the Fighter's neck. Appreciate the help though :-)

I'm looking at creating a Hanger for my TIE Fighters but I'm at a bit of a loss as to how to do it. As you can see from this picture TIE Fighters are held in place by two "clamps" on the neck part of the fighter. Someone has done a great MOC over at mocpages but I can't seem to find the technic brick that he is using as a clamp on bricklink. Has anyone tried something like this before?
