NTS&B The aliens have arrived
With all of the news about illegal aliens on TV, I found some trying to sneak into my layout. The flying saucer is actually an 'S scale' model from CatzPaw Innovations LLC, which is a 3D printing company. They printed the unit, painted it, and added the LED lighting which sequences around the saucer and illuminates the top and bottom. After many attempts at hiding the wires, this is the best I could do. I originally had it hanging right underneath one end of a florescent light, and no matter what I did the wire stuck out like a sore thumb, I had tried painting the wires 3 or 4 different colors with now help. I finally moved it away from the light, and hung it closer to the ceiling, which is much better. Since the top light is close to the ceiling, I put a piece of tape on it to keep it from lighting the ceiling so much. Installing it also gave me a much needed break from the passenger yard lighting. Here it is.
