I can hear Dr. Smith now- "Oh the pain, the pain!" All those wires! Looking forward to part 2!

[@pauly7218]

There were indeed a lot of wires on this build, but between the kit and some organization it isn't so bad.... I'll see you next week with part two, and don't forget a fun Diecast build Saturday!

[@DiecastMediaNetwork]

Agh! A cliffhanger! What a build though. Can't wait to see the conclusion.

[@tomtbi]

I'll be anxious to see the finished product!!

[@thatsdavid2u]

I admire your patience! Great detail work, can't wait to see it complete!

[@pauly7218]

Thank you very much!

[@mormic]

Love your channel. this help me so much to build my Jupiter 2 with phototech and light like yours! 👍

[@2ahdcat]

Yay! Another Paul Noodle-doodle video, lol. LOTS of wires on this thing...

[@tomtbi]

A lot of exquisite parts in this kit too!!

[@pauly7218]

It was a very nice kit indeed...

[@jeffbaker2897]

Super interesting Paul 👍

[@pauly7218]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@tomtbi]

I agree am impressive looking kit!!

[@tomtbi]

Nice job on the small fine details...

[@jameshunt9130]

Awesome build an great detail can't wait for part 2

[@pauly7218]

Thanks 👍

[@anthonybollini3699]

What a huge project a must to drove you nuts

[@pauly7218]

I really enjoy that kind of thing, so not really (Most of the time!)

[@chargoldsmith5112]

Very nice loved lost in space when I was young. Look forward to part II...

[@pauly7218]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@tomtbi]

WOW!! A TON of wiring!!. I bet it took you a while to figure it all out!!

[@pauly7218]

It took a bit, but was all good once everything was sorted out....

[@2H80vids]

That's a lot of wires Paul.😁 It's fun *watching* this build so you must be having a blast actually building it. Looking forward to part 2.👍

[@pauly7218]

I really did enjoy it, and am already planning on another lighted build!

[@billstelzer7755]

Great video! Eagerly awaiting part two.

[@pauly7218]

More to come!

[@davidtparker4840]

Way cool....

[@slawnski]

Looking good do far! Great work.

[@pauly7218]

Thanks!

[@morebassman5860]

Paul, I am working on the same project with everything also. the lighting kit, photo etch ect.. Your problem on the power switch, fusion core switch was very helpful. What I did was flip it upside down to expose the nubs you describe that needed to be file off. I just used a small micro drill bit, found the center and then drilled the right size holes for each switch. The nubs on the bottom were gone without any sanding. this also allowed the nut to be screwed on without any problem.Thanks for the insight

[@pauly7218]

another tip would be to gut some channels in the lower hull to run cords through so they don't interfere with the floor and upper hull....

[@morebassman5860]

@@pauly7218 Got it. I work very slow since I'm not retied just yet! just finished the bottom hull. My low melt glue gun came in the mail yesterday

[@theragingdolphinsmaniac4696]

Hey Paul. The problem with your splotchy metallic finish is because you were spraying a large area with a small nozzle. Ideally you want to use something like a Iwata TH2 with a fan spray head to get even coverage.

[@pauly7218]

I actually have a detail automotive brush and was seconds away from turning to it. Thanks for the good info!

[@theragingdolphinsmaniac4696]

@@pauly7218 Or you probably could use a Paasche VL because it has a large spray pattern with the #5 tip.

[@tomtbi]

😎 decals for the control panels!!

[@potrzebieneuman4702]

Looking forward to seeing the flight deck consoles lit. I always thought those Burroughs computer lights were cool too. I built a cardmodel of the J2 and also had problems with deciding what colour the interior should be. Having the whole set on DVD I started looking but every scene seemed to be a bit different shade, very odd.

[@pauly7218]

I'll be doing another Jupiter 2 build soon....

[@potrzebieneuman4702]

@@pauly7218 sadly it's out of my price range or I'd be building one as well.

[@joshuapfeifer642]

Had no problem with the freezing tubes because i didnt uae hot glue. I never use hot glue for models. If i need something other than model glue use epoxy in a syringe.

[@davidbeeson1178]

I wire houses and businesses, definitely leaving that job up to you, lol. So far so good my friend, it is coming together nicely.

[@pauly7218]

Once you got it sorted out, it was pretty good...

[@PhilNixon-fr9nm]

Great job Paul. Very informative. Where did you get the interior lighting kit?

[@SuperBadVideos]

I was watching lost in space and forbidden planet this morning

[@pauly7218]

I love when stuff like that happens!

[@SuperBadVideos]

Paul Youdelis I’m really excited to see this build finished, they have lost in space on Hulu right now

[@dpoole08]

Hi Paul, I'm currently working on this build and have the same lighting kit you are using. My question is that I noticed you are using a difuser of some kind on the lighting for the fusion core. Is this something you made or were able to purchase, any information would be helpful.. thanks

[@pauly7218]

David. It is the kit's clear insert. Just lightly spray it with white paint. In my case I used Tamiya White fine primer

[@kenbaumer2599]

Watching you do this, Oh the pain the pain my dear boy...

[@pauly7218]

Pain is so close to pleasure!

[@dpoole08]

Hi Paul, I noticed in the instructions for the Lighting Kit, its stating to use one of the Static Tube bases as a mount for the reactor core lights, is this something you did?, I didnt notice you doing this in your video, also were you able to align the reactor lights to the gaps in each of the open slots in the reactor core cover ?, love the video.. cheers David

[@pauly7218]

So yes. Follow the lighting kit instructions visa vie the tube base. Also, I don't actually remember if I aligned the core or not - I doubt it is a big deal either way. I'm starting a re-build shortly and will do a new video and will mention what I find....
