I try to mostly use hand tools. A habit from guitar making. Thank you for the tip though. Any ideas are welcome and I appreciate your interest in what I'm doing. I've always had this compulsion to do things differently my whole life.
Nicely done with the windows specially the Sensor Dome light. think I'll do that with mine which is in the preping stage right now, thanks for sharing.
As far as the warped saucer....that's always been an issue with the Excelsior kits, even the new one like this one. I have read over the years for warping plastic use a hair dryer to get it straightened out. If you google how to unwarp a Star Trek model piece you should come up with something.
A counter sink bit would be good for the planetary sensor dome on the bottom of the saucer
Yes it would, but I don't have one.

Thanks for watching
I would love to see what you do.
@@Trekmods Sure thing.
Great video. Where can get some needle files that small for those windows?
I got mine from temu but probably Amazon as well
