Engineering

Paying homage to the various iterations of Star Trek Enterprise, this mod takes elements from the Next Generation Universe as well as the later Abrams films.

The top deck contains the bulk of the PC. Center deck is water lines and a Rasp Pi operating the center LCARS display with Windows IoT. Each side has LCARS cycled imagery with modified Polaroid digital picture displays. The bottom layer is an Enterprise E model assembled and custom lighted by me.

Custom parts were 3d printed or laser cut. All custom parts and the full design is by me. This build was in no way sponsored. Started in December 2018 it took almost a year to complete.
