SHOW OFF THREAD STAR TREK TOS SPOCK SCANNER

[Tiberius Kirk]

It has been my good fortume to gain access to Spock's Spectrum analyzer from "The Naked Time".

I am curious to know how many here on the board remember this?



TK

[mtpalin]

I remember it well! If I'm not mistaken, it appears in numerous episodes...

[blufive]

Is that a replica? It looks "minty fresh".

[rad1701]

Nice prop. One of the more unusual pieces from the series.

[Krel Jedi]

This appears to be a found item, Any idea what it might have been?

Considering it was a found item with no modification. I have a friend in San Diego that has one, not as good a shape as TK&#39;s, I was told that it is a Rad counter or meter of some sorts...

It&#39;s the scanner that lets you tell that shop mannequins have frozen to death.

Ill be danged. I never even would have recognized it from TOS without those pics.
Cool&#33;

[TheSt.LouisKid]

Thats pretty dang spiffy&#33;

It also doubled as Scotty&#39;s timing gun for the Enterprises engines. :P

[LastODJedi]

Very cool, I want an Enterprise timing gun too&#33;

Now that&#39;s a really cool prop&#33; Something you don&#39;t see everyday. Did it come like that or were there any modifications? I don&#39;t think anyone has offered a kit of that before. Have you given any consideration of maybe letting it fall into some rubber? I&#39;d love to get a copy if you do.

[mtpalin]

It just occurred to me that it resembles a radar gun, with some mods...

[jhusel]

Looks alot like an art projector with a handle on it.

VERY cool nonetheless.

[kitt1]

That is just too cool. A rare find indeed. Keep us updated as to whether you are going to offer these.

[redeye]

I remember that prop very well. Thats a nice find.

[Jedi Lawja]

Cool&#33; What exactly does the back end look like? Is that an analog meter that Spock is looking at?

I wonder what the little clip on the front is for..

Here&#39;s a couple of pics for you Jedi Lawja.

Also, notice the "orange" handle in the pic where Scotty is holding it.

Here are some new pics of the latest alterations. A new paint job and I&#39;ve also added the silver studs on the side.

I think we are almost there&#33;

I can&#39;t take the suspense anymore

Did you produce the prop yourself? Is it metal, resin, wood, or some combination? Are you considering offering these for sale?

Do tell

It&#39;s a found item... an actual, real world electronic device from the 1960s. The only thing different was the change in color of the handle. A bit of orange paint and tada&#33;











Still a sweet piece&#33;

[mtpalin]

A found piece?&#33;? Man, that is WAY cooool.
