The discussion of the Alien series of films and the props used in them is the aim, but if it's got Big Bugs and Big Guns, then they are welcome too!

That is very nice.
Is it the later version of the model you produced with the modified & more accurate parts I think you may have talked about elsewhere?

It's a fairly heavy piece. I have a brass rod running the entire length. Since the engine section is hollow I inserted a half inch thick disc of wood and ran the rod through that.
