Refit/1701-A - 3D Model, Full Interior

I wonder how stable those railings are. They might bend if you leaned on them.

Haha, actually they bend in a few scenes. Plus, I noticed at the beginning of TWOK one of the end pieces gets broken between shots:

The funny thing is I can imagine in-universe that Kirk bumped the damaged (from all those explosions) railing and it fell off. He just placed it back on top of the rail and by the time the camera switches back to him you see it there. :)
 
Well, I have been making 3D prints since 2015 mainly TOS using Razor's great TOS bridge mainly. But I never found any good movie era STL files. Are these online? Thanks
 
Dan, do you have a Patreon or other account where people can show their appreciation for your work? You are making my biggest childhood dream come true. I've always wanted to play hide and seek on the refit Enterprise (no transporters allowed)

That would've been a nice touch. In my head, I can see it now... Kirk bends down, picks it up and holds it up at eye level, with a quizzical look. Spock says the line about havoc on equipment, he turns his head to Spock, gives him an imitation Vulcan eyebrow raise, then puts it on the railing, and life goes on... :)

The problem with that is that Spock doesn't say that until the next scene, in the corridor, with the janitor in the background.
 
I'm using Sketchup yep, for no other reason than it's free and I was impatient to get started ;)

I've re-done my layout slightly using Big Jim Slade's blueprints as a guide, and everything seems to be fitting a lot more cleanly now. I just can't seem to get Deck 2's little round windows in a sensible place... they look like they should be at head hight but the model simply doesn't fit that way.

Have any of you guys seen a decent solution to this?
Yes... look at Sketchup 3D Warehouse for the work done by agent-p for the Enterprise-A. Already done. I have downloaded all the agent-p created Star Trek deck models for my personal archive on a USB thumb drive. He/she suggests using the turboshaft system as a "skeleton" in order to insert each deck in correct orientation.
 
Oh, models have been done. Plenty of them on 3d warehouse. The issue is that DanGovier plans to do every deck and infrastructure. That level of detail can quickly lead to a huge file that Sketchup can't handle.
It's been done deck-by-deck in 3D Warehouse by agent-p, along with the suggestion that you use the turbolift structure as a "skeleton" with which to locate the other decks as you bring them in. I've saved agent-p's work to a USB thumb drive for an archive. Even if I take it to Blender, a LOT of heavy lifting has been done by agent-p.
