I know how moves go! It's like some law of physics that there is a place in the universe ( a wormhole perhaps), where all lost possessions go after a move. I think that is what happened to the missing parts and stand in the first place!

Great job with the paintwork on the Enterprise. Nice choice of colours.

Thank you Drop Bear!

So, I used some JB Weld for Plastic and a brass rod to fix the broken pylon. Here is the finished product!

Thank you guys!

If I took close up shots, there would definitely be flaws, and it is far from professional looking. But I think I learned a lot rebuilding this model, and a lot of what I learned was from you guys! Thank you very much for the tips, advice, and in some cases, even the parts! If I get froggy and build another 1:537 Enterprise-A, I think I can now do a better job. :)
