Well I want to get rid of the rounded corners at the ends, not sure if
that'll be harder then just framing a new hex box. I'm going to fiddle
with
the nuts first though.

Ditto. I do get down to Seattle now and again. Might be able to talk the
wife into letting me out for a few hours on one trip ;-)

Thanks ;-)

Ok back on topic. New photos up:

I've mocked up a couple of primary details for the rings and to test
them
out. I've also switched up the carrier module a bit. I think I prefer
the
new way which is 4 launchers. I can still make a 2 launcher module to
fill
the in the space and to use as say the launch system for a single
fighter
bay or support for an lander module.

I didn't get around to making the smaller ring or detailing the nuts.
Colbert Christmas came on and I had to go watch ;-)
