Sailbarge Display Rack.
« on: April 19, 2020, 08:26:39 AM »
Not a Diorama. Not a Display Shelf but a simple rack to display the Jabbas Sail barge. With added extensions for Skiffs and a discreet light bar this rack sits on metal shelf brackets that attach to wall mounted rails.
Here's the "Before". The "After" with Modified Barge and Skiffs coming Soon.
Stay Tuned ;D

I love how sturdy this looks. It would have to be to support that bad boy. Definitely want to make sure you get that shelf on a stud when you mount it to the wall. Great to see you woodworking bud.

Off to share.

I started my Mods by making a wire bracket to hold up and show off the front panel.

The cockpit wire is cool, but lifting the sails is killer! I'd love to see in-progress shots of the lifts; I'm curious how they were made (and how hard it would be to copy).
Very cool!

I'll make some more Lifts and take pics this time. There easy if you have a some sort of chop saw and a router table.

First pics on an actual wall. I see changes needed especially with the lighting. 2.0 will begin soon.

This is taking shape, quickly! Such a smart & noble solution to display this scene! The mirror almost tricked me at first glance. Jabba would be proud and offer you at least 40,000 credits for this masterpiece of art!
