Ok so I now have a Scrub N Buffer. Anyone have blue prints or a good parts list? I know what microphones I need and that seems to be the only known part.

Anyone?

First off if you want a somewhat detailed build view my thread on here:
http://www.gbfans.com/community/viewtop ... 34&t=12011

Cylands may have been the first, but is more inaccurate than it is accurate. He said he built it off of pure screen caps before the 720 copy was available.

Second plastruct does not sell the right size domes. You will need to go to:
http://www.complexplastics.com/balls/PU ... /index.htm
They are pricey, but they are the only place I could find a 3.5" dome.

Also Im not 100% sure it is tank tread they used on it, as I have watched the bluray of Star Trek VI and that is the one piece that I still cant identify.

I hope this information help your build, and good luck, its a long road to finish one of these.

Thank's for the rave review. Truth is your build is somewhat lacking as well. I've been holding back at your claim to being the "Most Accurate To Date" dig but man you can sure sling it. Truth is, what's mine lacking? The boxes are not off set at the back by 1/8" and the perf unit top hat piece dosen't have some of the detail, Oh... and the little miss cut around the front is not there.

Your build looks to be fairly good just that the cosmetic plating is far more subtile than yours and we never see a back shot to see if the boxes are off set or not. How about the dome cage where's that? It's funny that you can use my build as referance but also cut it down.

Tank Tread--- it came from the same kit as the PKE meter switch cover and quite a few of the other parts on their builds, so yes it's the real deal.

Woah woah woah my statement made was not to bash on your build. I purely meant that yours was the best at the time for what was available for reference. No disrespect. Yes at first I did use yours for reference, but once I got the 720 screen caps I changed and rebuilt a lot. I think in the end I didnt use anything from yours, but I am glad it was there because it was a good jumping off point. And yes mine is missing a few parts, but like was stated in my for sale thread, that was as much as I got finished for the comic con. By no means is my Giga meter complete at this date in time. I am still tweaking things to make it better. In the end I was just trying to help JoeLuna33 in his build, that is all.
