You can see I'm holding it by a bolt screwed into the bottom of the globe. That's the hole I put the switch in <br /><br /><br />I hope that makes sense.

T...Hi Amanda, I cannot see there being any problem. The magnets are in the top of the metal curve section on mine (and most of this style) but they should be powerful enough to go through a couple of coats of paint. But keep doing tests and don't paint too thickly where the magnet is.

It was a tremendous amount of effort to complete but I think it turned out pretty good. I have also made some tie fighter and x wing models that are clear coated. I hope you like them.

I would like to make one myself someday. First off, as a welder/fabricator my medium of choice is heavy metal and as such I have just acquired 2 spherical ends from a set of 2-500 gallon 41" diameter propane tanks. I will be building my DEATH STAR from these 200 lb/each halves of steel welded together atop a pedestal. I also have found 160 km for the D.S. diameter but I have yet to find any diameter for the concave focused laser. What ratio did you use if I may ask please? Also, what linear distance did you space the lowermost edge of this concavity from the equatorial trench? Thank you so very much for the help and the inspiration! I may incorporate 7 or 8 3/4" sections of electrical metallic tubing converging into a 1 1/2" tube to replicate the main laser. Once all the plasma cutting is done to match the "under construction" state in the film, this 300 lb. firepit will be awesome!
