    Uncle Bill, your work is on a whole different level. Texture, color choice and (the best part) the incorporation of cheap items one may never consider for such a project.
    From one Star Trek fan to another, I hope you never get burnt out doing this, because I am eating it up. And I know I'm not the only one.

    I think you can pop out any of the connections on the arms if they keep getting in the way.
