While there is a thread about a fantastic replica for the Key to Time segments being done here
http://www.therpf.com/f13/doctor-who-key-time-full-3d-cube-crystal-clear-acrylic-updated-148357/
and the Key to Time tracer I build here:

I’ve decided to make the OTHER Key to Time. This is the one done as the hands-on prop of the assembled Key to Time.
As you can see it’s basically the assembled KTT pieces' edges represented as clear triangles inside an acrylic cube.
The pieces inside mimic the “seams” where the parts fit together.
Thanks to Dalex and others for a paper mockup to give me the approximate parts. With those I could get the general parts layout. Here’s the assembled paper version which was the model I used for the interior layout.
We all seem to agree on the KTT being 6”size. First I purchased a 6” clear cube from online and some acrylic sheets from a hardware store for a total of about $25. I also grabbed a cheap plastic acrylic cutter to cut the acrylic sheet.
