The 3D walk-through is still online and working, I'd really appreciate feedback, opinions and critiques. I had been working on the design museum concept for a long time and this was a unique opportunity to make it into a real world project.

The space was small, as the budget and production time. One I got the go ahead to opening day I had about three months to make everything you see in the online walk through which matches what was displayed. Even the QR codes will work on a big screen.

This exhibit was more of a prototype to see what worked and what didn't, especially post-covid, so no VR goggles.

Everything is available for sale maybe trade or lend. Health problems will make it hard to redo but there's the 120th anniversary of Lindberg's flight next year so who knows.

I have the Vanguard 1 prototype that uses tough non-PLA plastic for its body. This is as accurate as the metal version but more affordable.

I'm putting a PDF together of a whole bunch of models from Topping desktops to a NASA/MSFC 1/96th SV that I have been restoring (may not finish) that will be up for sale.

All funds going to be used to finish my full cutaway legacy model, the 1/8th X-15 for the National Air and Space Museum in D.C. and a X-15A-2 for Wright-Patt, both to be donated.
