You have put together some very nice displays! I had not ever thought about using shadow box frames to do something like this. Where did you find the Juno II and Jupiter rockets (seen in photo 34)?

Wow, great collection you have there! Looks like a set up for a museum on space exploration!

By chance, do you build and fly any model rockets (model rocketry)?

WOW Henk!!

What a great collection of models! I love your lunar rover!! A friend of mine has been working on the proto type. All of your models and the way you have them displayed look like they are in a museum. I also love all of the Constellation models! I wish there were more Constellation models that were priced so the average person could buy them. I cannot wait to see more. GREAT WORK!

Hi friends, two answers: No I don't fly model rockets although I have some models for display only, all X-Prize models, Titan III-E, Clipper and Vostok.

Second answer about the JUNO and Jupiter models: Go to the site of Tomas Kladiva.

Very nicely done. I'll have to consider your display methods for my own models as these shadowboxes are a great idea.

This year I have build some new models, a Hubble Space Telescope scale 1:6 with a Beamer and Video inside for Star and Galaxy projection on a screen, the model is now in the Air and Space Museum here in The Netherlands.

Second one is a paper model of the Saturn V tower, LUT and crawler, a lot of work and the glue on you fingers...grrrr!

Also some new showcases with "Robot or Man", "First US Moon probes" with a Surveyor, Ranger and Lunar Orbiter, and Sputnik II with Laika.

If you are interested you can take a look at my site.

I wish you all a Merry Christmas and a very good beginning of 2010 a new decade for space: "Back to the Moon".
