Also, when you are making a post, it should say "Additional Options..." in yellow letters below the box in which you type.  Click on that, and you will be given the option of attaching a file.  If you attach a picture (preferrably .jpg, .png, or .gif) it will appear in your post.

Hi Don,

Very nice ship there - is this your base model (ship you're going to start "moddifing").  I like it a lot, nice mix of primary and secondary hulls, interesting seeing the nacelly pylons originating at the bottom/base of the secondary hull.

Cheers,

Great info Mr. Tricorder- I've already cut and paisted it into my kitbash book.

Is it possible use cut and paste for model objects ?? Say I want to use the engines from one model on another model, can I simply import the part only ??

Ok, here's how you do that.

Now, let's say that you're making a ship and you want a warp nacelle that is saved in a .max file along with several other parts.  In order to retrieve this part, and any other parts you need from this file, open the File menu and select Merge.  Chose the file that has the part or parts that you want (this should work similar to opening a file).  Next, you should see a dialog box listing all of the objects in that max scene.  Select the object or objects you wish to merge into your current scene.
