Is this 28mm scale?

Yes this is set to 28mm scale but you can rescale

Any chance of getting the solid version without the upper balcony attached?
Sam Campbell –
Thanks for suggestion. We’ll add it to the development queue.
Benjamin Neher (verified owner) –
how do you recommend connecting the gear and balcony to the tower?
Nicholas Jebson –
Either superglue or a high strength epoxy glue. This is one of our older models and this has highlighted some updates that we should look at doing. cheers.

What do you recommend using to join the 2 halves of the telescope? There are 2 location holes on each half but filament doesn’t fit inside the holes. The same for the balconies.
Jo Boorer (verified owner) –
We used filament for these joins as seen in the linked video
