Thank you so much for posting this!! My husband has been promising me for years now that he would build a TARDIS for me as my 50th birthday gift (I’ll be 56 in June), but used the excuse that he wants it to be just perfect and can’t do that without either seeing one in person ( not too easy in Colorado) or having plans//blueprints in hand. You’ve made my year!!! 😍
Thanks so much again! You’re fantastic!
Got tips on obtaining a fresnel globe at the right dimensions? Almost everything I can find is a replacement lens for a Perko lamp which is about half as tall and wide as a typical TARDIS one would be.
