Author	Topic: Advice restoring Apollo Firing Room consoles
steffent New Member Posts: From: Registered:	posted 05-19-2011 03:12 PM We here at the Brevard Community College we have obtained several Apollo Firing Room Consoles. We are planning to restore one of them. If anybody has pictures or information on how they go together, we would love to talk with them.

I would very much like to see photos of them, and I can talk you through restorations depending on what you want to do. There are several of us on cS who have restored panels, including hooking them up to programmable logic controllers to make the switches and lights work. Check out my website at ApolloLaunchControl.com. I would be glad to include photos of your panels in the gallery. Please do e-mail me and I will be happy to set up some conversations with you.
