We are planning on a R2D2 side table, rustic shelves, glow in the dark stars on the ceiling and a few Star Wars type art pieces.Solo: A Star Wars Story is a 2018 American space Western film centering on the Star Wars character Han Solo. Sweet now I have some for future projects. After all of that silver painting, I only used 1/3 of the quart. My son is thrilled about the room so far. Finally I painted stars on the wall, don’t look to close because I hand painted them and I’m not an artist □ Then I printed off some Star Wars dingbats and traced them on the wall, then filled in the tracing with silver paint. To finish off painting around the room, I painted a 3″ silver stripe between the dark blue and sky blue. In the center I traced a couple of tie fighters, as if we are chasing them □ Again the silver paint went on great and only required one coat. I really struggle with random, and since the stars should be random, I printed a picture of hyperspace for a guide. Next step is the hyperspace wall! I taped random stripes on the wall that radiated out from the shelf and gradually got longer. Take the corresponding screw distances and put hangers on the shelf, or route keyholes in the shelf to hang it. I drilled 2 1/2″ screws into the studs to hang the shelf. Then level and mark where the screws should go. Step 6įind the studs in the wall to hang the shelf. I applied two coats of paint, even though I probably only needed one. The paint went on very smooth and the coverage was awesome. Then I painted it with the Modern Masters Silver Metallic paint, I have to tell you that I am really impressed. I primed the wood with Zinsser Bullseye, and let it dry. Sand the hexagon smooth and remove the dust. Then I filled any cracks and gaps with wood filler, let it dry. I left the screw heads showing to make it look more industrial. To assemble the hexagon, I glued the side faces of the trapezoids and used 1 1/4″ screws to secure them together. Add a bead of wood glue on the ends of the 12 1/4″ pieces and join to the 24″ and 10 7/8″ pieces. Now we’ll make 6 trapezoids, the pocket holes are going to be on the outside of each trapezoid. Since this is an odd joint, to make sure you are getting enough thread engagement, screw in a 1 1/4″ pocket hole screw and see how much thread is showing, aim for about 5/8″ – move your collar fwd or back and re-drill to get the right depth. On one face of the 12 1/4″ pieces, drill 2 pocket holes (affiliate) on each end. Modern Masters will sponsor a giveaway, wahoo! Step 1Ĭut 6 pieces of 1 x 6 that are 24″ long and have a 30 deg bevel on each end.Ĭut 6 pieces of 1 x 6 that are 10 7/8″ long and have a 30 deg bevel on each end.Ĭut 12 pieces of 1 x 6 that are 12 1/4″ long and have a 30 deg bevel on each end, except the bevel needs to be facing the same direction this time. I was able to do a review of a quart of metallic paint…perfect for this project. *I have heard lots of great things about the Modern Masters paint.
