Klingon Bird of Prey made out of a Floppy disk

You saw the New Star Trek movie, and the noticeable lack of Klingon disappointed you. So the most logical next thing to do is craft a bird of prey out of an old floppy disk. This project was inspired by Kip Kays "Make A Spaceship Out Of A Floppy Disk!".

Everyone loves Star Trek.
Klingons are cool, floppy disks are cool and Birds of Prey are super cool!

Step 1 Materials and tools

-Floppy Disk
-Stanley Knife
-Ruler
-Cutting pliers
-Pinching pliers

Most of all you need a floppy disk. You can probably find a substitute for any of the other tools.

Well made! I always liked the Klingon ships better.

Always thought the ship designs in Star Trek were a little bland... I kinda liked the stargate ships (Except the flying pyramids). The Daedalus always looked epic in a space battle...

[Jetpack5]

Make us some!

[crash770]

Wahoo! Memorial Break Project!

[Jetpack5]

Your post inspired me to post my own design!

And I really hope you don't really make those sounds, or the men in white coats might pay you a visit.

Since you asked, pinching pliers are called needle-nosed pliers in the United States.

I have a LOT of floppy disks in my room and I don't even have a reader on my computer! LOL

I suppose that's one use for a floppy disk... :P The "Enterprise" looks like it's more of an Excelsior class to me (could be the Enterprise-B!!!), but still, interesting work... :D As for your desktop/screensaver, whoever put in the "USS Enterprise-D" bit needs to be shown out the nearest airlock for using the titles font on a display, naughty boy... :P

I think it is enterprise D a Galaxy class vessel from the next Generation(TNG) star trek serries

[twocvbloke]

You're correct, and the geek in me has been released: Enterprise NX-01 - NX Class (for whose who acknowledge the Enterprise as a Star Trek series) USS Enterprise NCC-1701(first and A) - Constitution class USS Enterprise NCC-1701-B - Excelsior class USS Enterprise NCC-1701-C - Ambassador class USS Enterprise NCC-1701-D - Galaxy class USS Enterprise NCC-1701-E - Sovereign class

[TyMan210]

The Enterprise-A was actually, Constitution Refit class

[twocvbloke]

Still came under the Constitution name though... ;)

oops, I guess that was sorta silly. Anyways, thanks for the comment.

This shows creativity - something lost on many today. I applaud this. Excellent build! It shows we can recycle and have a little fun. It took a huge leap of imagination to make a model from an old floppy disk that would have otherwise ended up in the trash. Keep up the good work.

[lemonie]

It's a lovely little build, but the disk is right out of proportion, bit more like an Akira Class? You could take the disk off I suppose. L

[phoneyakk]

While I agree with, I chose to keep the disk. The disk doesn't make it look any more like a Bird of Prey, however it does give it a more diy/made from a floppy disk feel. My point is that it enhances the spaceship in a non realistic esthetic way.

[lemonie]

Yes, I won't disagree with you on that. L
