A snip and cut

Last week whilst marking the dome for the PSI and holo projector's, for some reason I thought I'd make R2ST the same as R2D2 and have a coloured band under the dome. So it was marked out and jigsawed (!)off. Just got to work out how I'm going to fix it on.

Tonight Matthew I'm going. ....... Oops wrong saying!
Tonight the holes were cut out ish. They are undersize  so easier to make bigger than the other way round. Before cutting any more, I have filed the pie panels for a less jagged look. This keeps the strength there with the narrow strips in between panels. Once I'm happy with these and the holes then I'll be cutting out the rest anf repeating the process on the inner dome.

That's it.  Except R2ST may be having a trip to North Weald on Sunday for Wings and Wheels radio control event.
