MKM ModelwerxHad to modify the pylon support structure. When I did a test fit, the upper sphere half sat properly, but there was a large gap between the lower half and the secondary hull, so I cut out this area at the back so that it could move further aft, now the entire sphere sits where it should. <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/StarTrek?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#StarTrek</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/3DPrinting?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#3DPrinting</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/ScaleModels?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ScaleModels</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/ModelBuilder?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#ModelBuilder</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/MKMModelwerx?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#MKMModelwerx</a>
