SAIC - Orion Capsule Mockup

This is an "old but a good" project that Custom Creation built and installed for SAIC at NASA's Houston campus back in 2008.  I found it interesting to work with shop drawings from Lockheed to create our plywood and bending luan version. 
The client asked a full scale 1/4 section mockup that could be disassembled for shipping to differing events.  Here is an "assembled" perspective view of the sections that went into the capsule.
Exploded perspective view, to aid in installation and disassembly.
Exploded view showing all the parts and pieces.  The parts cut out on Custom Creation's cnc router are numbered.
As far as I know, our 'capsule' is still "here", in a lobby area of the NASA Houston Campus' Building 17.
