Well...
Since I didn't find any saucers (or not enough for a consistent fleet)
I scratchbuilt my fleet. (Wooden buttons are *soooo* adaptable, don't
you think? Also a "yo-yo kit". 3, 5, and 7mm "acrylic cabochons" and
"acrylic faceted round gems", plus the turrets off an old 14" SDF-1
model for engine pods.)
