Homemade TARDIS update

I'm building my own TARDIS, and it's definitely a learning process.

Doctor Who build

I started with the frame you see above.

I then added corrugated plastic panels for the walls. I used this material because it is lightweight and I wanted to be able to easily pick up the completed TARDIS and carry it around to different locations.

I then added corner trim so the plastic won't get damaged along the edges.

Doctor Who Do It Yourself

I attached a hinge near the top and the bottom of the open front. This will be for the two doors. I then lined a small portion of plastic sheet on top of it.

My next step was to use a thicker panel of wood for the top of the TARDIS. This is where the "Police Public Call Box" sign will go.

I then added trim to form the panels you see in the TARDIS.

So far this build has gone better than I could have imagined. Especially since I really don't have any experience in wood work or building projects.

Stay tuned to this blog for further updates of this TARDIS build.

Hopefully, it will look like this soon.
