    Any advice on budget DIY/restoration for Millenium Falcon?

    I've only got a week before her birthday now but here's some more I did for the gunner's seat yesterday using an old ice cream tub, double sided tape and some blue spray paint: Just time for a few last tweaks now before next week. I have found a couple of thin bamboo sticks that might be...

    Yes, that's exactly the one I came across first and gave me the inspiration to start fixing! In fact I used a free downloadable PDF template from his site to make a cape for this little fella!

    Any advice on budget DIY/restoration for Millenium Falcon?
