    I think the banned guy had sourced those lights as 12-volt car leds or something didn't he? I'd have to go back through the thread to be sure. I'm pretty sure from the endless jokes Craig made, the real Geoff could go more than 12ft from a wall outlet, so you are close to being spot-on with...

    Neil that looks like the correct skull - the "Bucky" I think I mentioned back up in the thread someplace that the way the jaw on Geoff was hinged if you watch old clips his back teeth don't touch because of the way it was re-attached to open and close on the servos. I'm deep in work on a...

    Geoff Peterson - Anyone?

    I never got around to doing anything more with my skull because it turned out not to be the "Bucky" one that Geoff was based on. If you look back through this thread there was some discussion about the Bucky skull. It's a quite common skull used in medical skeletons and in props. You'll find...

    DR Who-Sonic Design Competition (winners announced)

    Well, I've already posted this as a thread before, but I've tinkered with it on and off since last year, repainting it, remaking some bits. If I had a chance to have the copper bits milled, I would make them sharper as the parts taper like on the Eccleston/Tennant sonics. I'd also mill them out...

    Excellent job, I'd say lit it would probably take a side-by-side comparison to spot the difference once you're done. Are the internal LEDs in those blue or just white? Once you have the "metal" mohawk on he'll probably spontaneously start jabbering "Colorado, oh I have a place there!"

    Geoff Peterson - Anyone?

    Yeah, I agree and I want to say it's been a blast talking with you Darth and everyone else about this admittedly silly build. I'm probably going to at least get the eyes and probably do the same as you. I think I may use that Bucky tutorial to see if I can build the servo system adapted more...

    Geoff Peterson - Anyone?

    I had to go back and look at the Bucky servo link i had posted before to see if I could find a bottom of the skull shot and that pretty much shows how the servos might also be used. Getting it exactly like Imahara made Geoff would need more reference pictures than I've found so far. In the...

    Thanks NormanF. Now I have to figure out how to fit that in a skull like Imahara did, if that's what he did. And how to make it go. I've never built anything like this before. And yes epilepticsquirl that was the clip I was thinking of. I watched a bunch of pre-Geoff clips the other night and...

    Geoff Peterson - Anyone?

    Ha, yes, though on occasion they have managed to 'break' Geoff a few times, the best was once the arm quit working and several people were shown on camera with tools trying to fix Geoff while Craig heckled the whole thing and Thompson continued to voice Geoff as if in pain from their...

    Geoff Peterson - Anyone?

    What I was trying to point out about the jaw is that it looks like on Geoff that Imahara removed/ground/cut away to the existing jaw hinge and with those two screws below the hinge point probably put a plate on the inside surface of the jaw and it looks like there's a rod that goes from side to...
