ooh, this looks like it's going to be awesome! i've been planning/considering making a sort of dalek costume for a while, but instead of building myself something like this (seriously, where would i put it?  ) i'm going to try and make my own dalek dress like link and link |

yeah I was going to do the dress thing, but I would have to shave my legs, and well it would make my butt look too big, lol..
Actualy those dresses look cool. if you ever get round to doing it post or send pics.
thanks for the kind words.

hahaha, that'd be a lot of things to have to explain to everyone  so, quick question about these...are they just for display pieces? or, with the dalek, could it actually be used as a costume somehow? (if you could put some kind of moterized wheelchair inside that, maybe add a small camera/screen...  ) |

LOL. The dalek will mainly be a display piece in the yard, somethign to look at and something for the kids to play with. If all goes well I will either be making another one or I will put a motorized wheelchair set up inside, most people who make DALEKS put a seat in and eaither just wheels on the bottom and walk it like a flitstones car or they put a motor in. The TARDIS will be just a play house thing, I will put lights on a subwoofer inside so when they press some buttons it will materialize and dematerialize. Latest on DALEK.  |

I use to watch Dr. Who when I was a kid. For whatever reason, I don't follow it anymore. But I have got to say FamilyMan, your Dalek, looks amazing! Are you a carpenter or just have great imagination and building skills? Man that looks sweet.

Dalek update: Been a while since I updated you guys on the Dalek, mainly because it has been a while since I did anything to it, I have been working on my clone trooper armor, but over the past few days I have had chance to getworking on the arm ball joints, and the Gun arm. The gun arm worked out really well, just a piece of pipe, some wood and 4 coat hangers..  |

nice job on the arms, but for the gun, wouldn't it have been easier to just take the frame from a paint roller and attach that instead?

nice idea and some do do that when building their Daleks, but the problem is most paint rollers only have 4 - 6 bars, the dalek gun has 8..
