Trying to come up with a project to keep me occupied. Last winter was rebuilding Corvette suspension. I am starting to think maybe this year's gonna be something cool and even less useful - a TOS Captain's chair.
Some plans out there, none complete. I think I found the basic measurements and might mock something up with cardboard. Frustratingly I once had one of the the very Madison chairs the original was made from - long since sent to the landfill.
Lots of people have made these things and this is hardly an original idea but I figured what the hell, why not? May not even do it .... I mean, what am I going to do, sit in the basement and tell my cat stuff like "
we'll pivot at warp two and bring our forward tubes to bear" ? On the other hand, Louie is a TOS fan and he might need a science station.
Incidentally, Scotty was my favorite character and I loved it when he was in charge. If he tells you he'll blow up the ship and take you with him or that General Order 24 starts in one hour pretty sure he means it.
