 Attach the bow part to the hull.

 I have 2 led in the bow. I pass the wiring through the hole in the hull, carefully. If I break fiber optic,,, I do not want to think about it...

 The entire shape of the ship is now visible.

 Very small white srings is fiber optic.

 

 I bond the bridge to the deck after painting skull on the bridge.

  This section has some fiber optic, too. I need to put those into LED.

 

  I set LED to aluminum pipe, and fill in glue gun to the opening of the pipe. After hot glue is cool down, I put small aluminum pipe to the center of the LED pipe. I put optic fiber into the small aluminum pipe. I think I can stop any reaking of the light.

 I can not express well, so please see my hand drawing below.

 alll fiber optic is going into LED.

 

 In case if I will need to repair the electrical unit when I have any problem, I made a main deck removable.
