Home Made TOS Bridge Console

Way, way back in the mid 1970’s a young “Star Trek” fan put together a bridge console from his favorite TV show.  Yes, that fan was me (Rico) and here is an image of that effort and a long-lost B&W video I found showing it in action.  The console was a labor of love for me and I learned a lot about carpentry and electronics building this replica.  I also learned how many Christmas lights I could steal away from my parents in order to wire up some new console display.  I wish I had more to show for this and this console is long gone now, but it’s memory lives on.  So, now I can share a little of this with all of you.  Hope you enjoy this blast from my distant past.  Man, those were the days!
