What's It To You?

My name is Brent Byerly and this is my personal Sci Fi modeling site. I have been crafting wooden spaceship models for several years now and until this blog could only display them on a bookshelf. Thanks to the wonders of the web they may finally have a wider audience. Please feel free to comment (keep it family friendly please).

Classis Lines

If you're gonna build wooden rocket ships you've got to have at least one classic. While a TOS, Trek ship can be considered for this category, it's better to go way back. This is the "MX-1." It's a throw back to the days of the "sparkler in the back", Saturday morning serial spaceships. Buck Rogers or Flash Gordon would have been most comfortable in a ship of this type.
Notice the rear rocket nozzle. It's made from a toothpaste tube cap. They make great engines.
