An inside view of the secondary hull of the Enterprise NCC-1701-A model. Note the aluminum plate at the top of the photo. The pylons leading to the engines will be attached to this plate.
I was concerned about the aluminum plate breaking away while drilling extra holes into it from the outside, but the plate was very well laminated into place and I did not run into any problems. I later removed the brass tube in the foreground and replaced it with a wider aluminum tube. |
