Please recall that for this tutorial, I am assembling a non functioning version of the multipass. If you were
interested in doing a working version, you would make some modifications during this step. These modifications
will not be covered at this time.

Here are the pieces that are in play in this step. We've got the top most ring, the support disk, and the
yellow dome that we built in an earlier step.
|
|
First things first, make sure your dome fits in the ring. It should be a tad loose once you drop it in. This will
leave room for the thickness that will be added after you paint it.
To maintain accuracy, if your dome doesn't fit, I recommend that you sand down the dome around the edges, and leave
the ring as it is. Be sure to hit the dome with toothpaste and polish it out after sanding. If all goes according
to plan, you really shouldn't need to resize anything. For this tutorial, none was necessary.

Use your plastruct cement and apply it to the back side of the ring. Apply liberally. You can see where I drew some guide
marks on the support plate so I would know where to plunk the ring. This isn't necessary, but can make things a little
easier if you're nuts.
|
|
Place the ring in it's position on top of the support disk, and press down gently. Make sure it's aligned properly before
you pour on the pressure.
|
|
Now apply glue to the back of the ring/plate assembly, and press it into place on the pass body.

Here's a picture of the final assembly. We are now done with the multipass body.
