3D model description

Hi!
This is my design of The Most Important Machine In The Universe, or more accurately known as the Modern Props Companies prop #195-290-1.

This prop has been in the background of several Star Trek movies and tv franchises (even animated), The Last Starfighter, Knight Rider, Airplane II, Austin Powers, and countless others.
For part 1 of 3 videos showing its use, check it out on Youtube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=phPp5oYnps0&ab_channel=MajorGrin

This version of the prop is how it appears in its early design, it has changed over the years with bits and pieces added to it, but this is the version as It first appeared, and as shown in the video above in a scene from Airplane II.

It is 240mm long, 113mm wide, and 188mm tall. The largest part is the main part of the table which is 227mm long and 75mm wide, so you’ll need a printer capable of at least that. Parts 1 to 6 are best done on a resin printer, and 7 to 10 on FDM. I have included a split version of part 3 which will probably work on FDM.

Instructions are here:

Thanks!

Parts 1-6 in resin, with part 1 in clear resin ideally.
