Still haven't decided on what to do about the apron; so was hoping that work on the Shooter Scale would trigger some creativity.

Here's the old scale:


Because the PF has been mirrored; the shooter is on the opposite side of the PF. This means the existing scale cannot be used. Therefore my plan is to duplicate the scale and mirror it so it'll work on the correct side of the PF.

Once I had the measurements done in QCAD (DXF); the plan is to waterjet it at Techshop then then bend the piece on a metal break. Since I'm waterjetting a new piece; might as well make it Mirror universe:



I decide to replace the generic scale with a Terran dagger cutout and changed up the scale a little bit while still paying homage to the original. The plan will be to do some powercoating / laser etching to make this scale look correct.
