Note from Alan: Here it is. This should be it for a while. Take a look and let me know. There are a few minor things left, but nothing major.

Autodesk offers a free CAD viewing package called Volo View Express, which lets anyone view or print a CAD drawing as well as make mark-ups. This would allow folks to see all of the details. Even at their current size the pictures pixelized quickly. I'll be more than happy to send the drawing file to those interested.

Here is a summary of the dimensions:

Saucer diameter: 150.5 cm (59.25 inches)
Nacelle length: 183.5 cm (72.25 inches)
Engineering hull length: 124.5 cm (49 inches) without antenna, with antenna: 135.9 cm (53.5 inches)
Distance between centerlines of nacelles: 96.52 cm (38 inches)
Overall length: 342.9 cm (134 inches)
Overall height: 81.3 cm (32 inches)
Weight: 91 kg (200 lb)

Nacelle Dome Dia. 7.16"
Nacelle Fwd Dia. 7.625"
Nacelle Aft Dia. 6"
EH Fwd Dia. 13.4"
EH Aft Dia. at start of hanger door 8.5"
Distance from CL of Saucer to the front of EH inner ring 17.5"
Distance from CL of EH to the rim of the Saucer 18.01"
Angle of Fwd edge of dorsal to the CL of EH 34°
Angle of Aft edge of dorsal to the CL of EH 43°
Pylon width (fore-aft) 5”
Pylon thickness 1 5/16”
Fwd edge of pylon to Fwd of EH 32.75”
Front of Nacelle (not the dome) to Fwd edge of pylon 14.54”
Angle of Nacelle Pylon 47° angle from horiz. centered 1" below the CL of the EH

Notes:
1) These dimensions have been compared to various pictures and represent an average.
2) The basic shape of the Engineering Hull (EH) is assumed to be symmetrical.
3) Taking dimension from pictures should only be done in one plane. The photo can be scaled up and down to take dimensions in various plans. The key is to know a dimension in that plane.
4) To bring out hidden details convert the pic file to a negative.
