However, if they were going to wedge .5" plexiglass between the saucer halves, I suspect the edge would be vertical, not sloped, otherwise the saucer bottom wouldn't fit without having its outer edge sanded down.

I had an idea... certainly this is nothing but speculation, but --
Perhaps this unseen/unmade design is what the USS Liberator (the ship that launched the shuttlecraft seen in "The Art of Star Trek") looked like? 'twould be interesting to find a place for such an interesting starship concept...

I like it. I'll build it....mabye even this week if time allows. I'm glad it does'nt have those "marker nacelles". What is the length of this ship? Looks to be about 350-370 meters at first glance.
