  1. Looks awesome. I was wondering what materials did you use for the exhaust pipe, specifically the black coil part? I tried to find things like electrical wire casings and vacuum hoses that looked the part but they just don't look accurate enough. Is it black shrink wrap or black tape wrapped over some coils? The original part for this looks something like a flexible tube of some sort.

    Can't wait to see more progress pics especially of the radio when it is finished!

  2. I already use this water chemical for my fish tanks and thought the container seemed suitable for the top canister but I want to be sure. The container is 26.5 cm round (84cm diameter) and the height is about 21.5 not including the cap. Is this something's I can use for the top canister?

  3. Hmm, Voodoo used to be very quick at posting out the dials etc. I bought some a while back and it took a couple of months before I got them.

    Where are you based, what items did you need?

    Thanks Smally. If it took a few months then I will keep my fingers crossed and hope they arrive. I just ordered all the knobs, switches and handles. I don't need them asap but just wanted them to size up my radio kits in the next month or so. I am in Japan. I have most of my orders sent to my NY address and have my folks send things in bulk . Shipping direct to Japan for all the parts ends up being really expensive.

    Thanks Dutchy and Marcus as well for responding to my message.

  4. I paid him for a Sonix radio parts set. He confirmed the payment and said he would send the parts in a few days but that was back on Aug. 26th. No package yet received. Hoping this is not a deal gone bad, it would be a first in my experience buying from members on the MEPD or FISD.

  5. I need to get in touch with a member here on the MEPD but so far no luck. Sent a few PMs and tried direct mail to the member but I have not heard back since late August . If anyone is in contact with 'Voodoo' please let me know or please notify him I am trying to contact him. Your help is appreciated. :thumbsup:

  6. What size tupperware pitcher do the 5'' lids fit on? 1 quart pitcher? Having the actual container size makes it easier to locate a lid . Just saw a few on ebay but want to be sure. I am new to all this so please excuse me if this was already answered in a previous post.

  7. Sounds like promising news coming from the top. The great thing about Star Wars is that most things do not need to be re-created or updated. Most fans would respect a new Star Wars film that keeps things real and in touch with the originals. CG was overused in episodes 1-3, too clean and no gritty.

  8. You can find a very nice collection of Screen grabs in HD at www.looksirdroids.com it is not MEPD but a very useful resource by Art Andrews.

    Hope it helps.

    And yes, we want to add a reference library in the future!

    :)

    Saludos

    Thanks Juan and Felix. I never came across those pics on the FISD. Strange. Thanks a million though. I will use the links you sent me for my research to assemble a TD .
  9. On the FISD they have a nice gallery of blu-ray stills for TK reference. Does the MEPD have a collection/gallery of TD movie captured stills or behind the scenes shots? If not, could that be something someone could add in the future?

    I already looked at the photo gallery post but thought there could be something easier accessed. At present I cannot record stills from ANH but if I find out how to I will post again.

    If I am completely missing where a gallery might be,please point me in the right direction! Thanks.

  10. :thumbsup: Fantastic! Can the knobs turn or are they glued in place? Also is it possible to open the radio somehow?

    Great work on this. Just for the fun of it, I would love to turn one these into a working radio.

  11. Thanks for everyone's advice. Really just want to go RS but the cost is out of my range.

    Just another question, what size body is ATA made for? I am 5'11 / 179 cm . Do the parts for the legs and arms run short or just the same as RS? I have long arms and legs and want to avoid too much spacing between the parts.
