  1. Thumbs up from me :)
  2. parts? there is brickowl, bricklink. LEGO's webpage, 2 different options and even more?
  3. I, do not know. It is a quite strong friction connection. Maybe adding a cable and a small drum? "even More details to the build! Whoa" How does the area where you want the "white room" look like?
  4. Oops, I forgot the 27263's. I have seen those too and tought of them, but totally forgot them. The waterwheels have disadvantages too. They are connected to 25893 that connect to 97760 "or 3023 and 97760's" plates connected to 2x3 and 2x4 plates, in my build. 2x7 plates, if there were any, would take away some of the sideplate weakness. It might be possible to replace some of the 97760 with 2x6 or 2x4 plates, I have not checked if those would fit. And I could use more reinforcements between the waterwheels and rest of body. Round bricks would fit as reinforcement, they fit between the waterwheel 'spokes'. The angles are quite nice, yes.
  5. Longtime ideas supporter here, lovely to see these new pictures :)
  6. 35787's I have tought about too, but not implemented. I should have checked how the noses of 10231 and 10213 were made, would have gone way faster. I have no 1x6 plates, so those are missing. To do list is to add more details in the future. The dark blue pieces, holds the bricks quite nicely in place. So far atleast.
  7. KingsKnight, cheers for the pictures. Rear Orbiter to External fuel tank I have simplified. Someday I'll add more details to it, but a bit differently than yours. My orbiter is visually mostly as yours. Tail the same, pods mostly,, rear internals different. All thrustes gimballed. External fuel tank externally as yours, except the bottom orbiter attachment. Internals, quite different. I went with technic beams for the lower fuel tank stability. rotor blade internal for mid and top curved internals different too.
  8. The ship builders on this forum are fantastic. Konajra, you have built a lovely ship :)
  9. I could fit in that stabilizer quite fast, if I have all the parts. ScottishDave. Boosters, 32 + 16 long axles. External Tank 32, 8 and 8 with stop. The 32 long axles are way cheaper than the 16 long. My Booster axle connection:
  10. Thumbs up from me :)
  11. Adriano72, ah, that. It is my builds weak spot too. I have no good solutions for it at the moment. But check out Lego 31066. I am thinking of someday rebuilding my shuttle's vertizal stabilizer attachment points. ScottishDave, I see you used the smaller half cylinders 6259's for your Boosters. I'll someday switch out my 85941 with 6259 and 87081 's, due that the bigger half cylinders have weaker connections. And switch out some round plates too.
  12. Adriano72, you mean the split rudder? If yes: 54384 and 54383 for the rudder pieces. 2x 26047's on the rudders "4x total". Those pieces are connected to 15712's "4x in total". And those are connected in pairs to 2x 4081b. And the 4081b's are fixed to the Vertical stabilizer. This will not work direclty to your Vertical stabilizer, because it seems it is built studs down, while the others I have seen, including mine are built studside up, covered in tiles.
  13. ScottishDave, thank you. I'm not 100% happy with the back end of my shuttle, currently it would need 2 white stickers in the back. 1 on each side. it would have been nice to be able to use the 65466's with 32209 + 32034 + 6541 + 32001/3709b + 15535 to attach the Boosters to the External Tank. But I have no clue yet, if the vertical plates with holes can be aligned to work with the Boosters. /Edit: According to a test in LDD, it differs a 1/3rd of a plate for this setup to work? Altho, other things that have worked in LDD has not worked in a real build. And things that have not worked in LDD, does work in a real build.
  14. Thumbs up to that build.
  15. freshfather, no I have not done any interior details. Only thing I'll add is cargo bay details in the future. And some rebuilds/strengthening of the orbiter and boosters. + more details to the external tank.
  16. Finally the last and critical pieces arrived 2 days ago. And after some smaller internal rebuilds, the Space Shuttle is mostly finished. I used a brick for stability while I took the photo, if you are wondering.
  17. Nice! And yes, a bit of a lot of pictures. 8880 seems to have been the base for it, sort of?
