If you are looking for my upper deck drawings and they are no longer attached to the messages below, please PM me (Starseeker) and I can email them to you. There are occasional long periods where I'm not active here but I do lurk and eventually I do check my messages. The thirty-some files posted here are 60-90k each or the original approx 11" x 17" drawings 600-900k each. So you would need reasonably high speed internet.
As a little kid, I was a huge Lost in Space fan. As an older kid, I still loved the hardware, the first season stuff, and of course the Jupiter 2. My Grail kit was always a 1/24 scale model of my beloved saucer. As Supersnipe, I sent endless letters to Fox begging for the blueprints of the ships on their shows. I must have finally driven someone insane, as one day two two inch thick packages arrived in my mailbox. On another thread I’ve posted my conversion of the original Fox blueprints of the early Seaview into its series incarnations, as well as copies of the original control room and sail and flying sub. But it is the Jupiter 2 that I most loved. Some of the blueprints were for the pilot version, some for details of the 2nd season version. Our winters are really long and cold this far north. Twenty plus years ago I spent a lot of time copying, tracing, and drawing and not only made plans for my own 1/24 scale J2 but drew every single detail of the exterior and interior upper and lower decks that I could find.
Season 2 cross is a bit of a hybrid diagram. It shows the dimensions and angle of the 2nd season control panel, plus the curved crash doors of the 4' miniature.
The walls behind the ladder and the glide tube are vertical to the ceiling. They would not fit inside the straight sided set, and the locker room wouldn’t fit into any Jupiter 2.
Astrogator shades are way too dark. But they show do the contrasting panels that lasted throughout the series. The tops and sides of the top fins, as well as a band around the edge of the last ring outside the glass dome are polished metal.
