Throttle bay with G737
My thanks to Roberto for selling me the parking brake handle and switch for my G737 V1.
I built everything in a throttlebay to fit between my CDU bay and pedestal.
Hope you like it

Re: Throttle bay with G737
Looks fantastic! That's exactly what I'm picturing of making when my V2 throttle shows up and I pick up a O/C FMC. Are the trim wheels operational? I may try to make mine.
What did you use for the lower EICAS screen?

The trim wheels are not movable.. just as detail.
I have bought a small LCD screen for lower EICAS on Ebay in China.

Re: Throttle bay with G737
Don't laugh but the trim wheels are painted kitchen choppin blocks.
I used MDF (12mm and 15mm) for all my builts.
All paint have been applied with a roller. Paint is Flexa Creations (mixed in RAL7011 and 7038 ).

Re: Throttle bay with G737
What did you use for the decals on the throttle handles, or did your throttle come like that? My V2 doesn't have anything.

Re: Throttle bay with G737
Thats correct, But I really missed them so I searched for decals.
Eventually I found the decals in Italy :

Re: Throttle bay with G737
Ooo.. I'll have to send him an email. Do you happen to have a side shot of the bay? I want to build something just like this but trying to determine how much should go between the front of the throttle and the angle section for the FMC/EICAS.

Re: Throttle bay with G737
Hi Nolatron,
Sorry for the late answer. Unforgently I do not have any more pictures when it was not built in yet.
This is how it looks now.
And these are some shots during the built..
