  "Concerning my contribution to the Project..... and the fact that we have about 13 weeks to go:
At the Atlanta model show, Erin the Resinheart took a look at my mostly completed masters for the Huron freighter for the project.

He made the comment that the 2500 scale TOS Ent nacelles may work; but when I got home & double checked my references, that makes the freighter waaaay too small.

The plan was (and still is) for the warp engines were to be from the 1/1600 3-ship set that has been around forever. I wanted to know if anyone has already made a cleaned up, crisply detailed set of these that can be utilized for the project, or, should I do 'em myself?

Also, how many aux. ships should be planned for? I'm doing the Huron-class with two variations; one, as seen in TAS, and the other with a simplified forward end but a larger lower cargo hold.

Thoughts, opinions, and comments on this would be appreciated."
