star trek the original series

Hello everyone, I'm very excited to find this community of fans, and hope that I can share a long-term project I have in mind, and maybe hone it with some ideas that you might have. I currently have a large desk with a three-shelf hutch, built from rough recycled timers, and backed with rough...

I'm working on the graphics for Gary Seven's fake CIA, NSA, and NYPD identification cards from 'Assignment Earth'. I'll probably finish these over the weekend whenever I can find time to work on them. I'm going to attempt to match up all the fonts, which should be easy since these are yet...

This is my recent build of a vintage 1960s AMT USS Enterprise model kit. I built it as the USS Constellation (without the damage) from 'The Doomsday Machine'. An early long box version of the kit just like this one was also used for the actual Constellation model in TOS, so this is studio scale...

Starting work on the 1:350 TOS Enterprise. I frosted the outsides of both the inner and outer Bussard domes, and the insides of the bridge and sensor domes. The inner Bussard domes have the strips from the Aztec Dummy window masking set. I also put white styrene discs inside the saucer...

Hello! I was looking around online and all i can seem to fine are super over exposed shots of the model when it went on auction a while ago. I'm trying to re-create it for a friend of mine and would like to get the details right. I have these images below (along with many more that are equally...

For ages now, I have wanted a three-dimensional chess set as seen in the original Star Trek series. There is the option of buying one, but I can think of many better ways to spend the five hundred bucks for something that's not even a replica of the screen-used prop. So, build it is. And while...

Last year I bought the cheap Rubies TOS phaser, intending to upgrade and repaint it eventually. Today I felt like breaking something, so I decided to begin this project by prying open the toy. Here's how it looked before I began: Not bad for the price, aside from the bizarre color scheme...

My latest project is an 18 inch long wooden model of the Shuttlecraft Galileo from Star Trek the original series. It's made of hard maple, black walnut, padauk, osage orange, ebony, and yellowheart. There is no paint or stain in this. All the inscriptions are inlaid using a mixture of epoxy and...

Hi all, Does anyone have any insight on the way the flip-up clear acrylic sight works on the phaser 1 from TOS? I understand that as you rotate the knurled brass thumbwheel on the phaser a connecting rod inside the body causes a half-round acrylic rod to rotate and push up the silver textured...

Hi guys n gals here is my star trek beyond uniform which I cosplayed this week. The tunic is tailor made and the gun is also handmade, the trousers and boots I bought to match the film are not 100% accurate and the badge is qmx but I hope you like it as for the money I paid its not a bad...

Hi Everyone, I just wanted to share a project I've worked on for Star Trek TOS - an 50th Anniversary flip watch ;-) Limited to 500 units only. Full Stainless Steel Case Citizen Movement Engraved unit number (making watch unique) Flip front, leather strap, engraved buckle, presentation...

For a while, I've wanted to get into the whole "building" community, so when I found depictions of the Star Trek TOS 4b Computer (possibly from this site) with dimensions, i wanted to build it. I mean, it's an angled box, how hard can that be? (that's an honest question, btw, I want to know what...

Hey Everyone! This is my first real prop build, so I don't know what to expect, but I've had an eye on a special project for a while (since Adam Savage's Tested video came out on it), and since I consider myself a decent carpenter, I figured I would give this thing a shot. For this build...

I needed to come up with some Star Trek themed alcoholic drinks for someone's birthday recently and found it incredibly difficult to find glass bottles that even remotely resembled anything I remember from the shows. Has anyone found reasonably affordable options for recreating classic Star...

My friends and I are wanting to build a replica prop from TOS for their nursery. We're very interested in creating something based on the Type 4B Alpha. http://tosgraphics.yuku.com/reply/35/TOS-Computer-props-REVISED-and-in-HD#reply-35 We're very new at this and don't know where to find...

**Update to post... Last one. This is a fully functioning Medical Scanner as seen in the original 1966 Series of Star Trek with both working movement and added sound. There were only 10 of these scanners made world wide that were fitted with the sound electronics. Only 6 were ever made...

A few months back, I modeled and 3D printed a midgrade TOS Phaser I. Inspired by pics I've been seeing in asalaw's and robn1's phaser threads, I finally got around to modeling and printing a couple of P2 sections (one early season 1 black-and-white version, and one post-repaint version). Still a...

Considering building a Captain's chair from TOS. The build itself seems pretty simple. The only problem I can find with it is that the various switches on the chair are very hard to find, and when found, are often very expensive. I'm wondering if anyone has ever 3-d printed any, and if so...

I was wondering if there's any builders out there that enjoy replicating props in LEGO? Here's some Star Trek Props I did a while back. I've been meaning to build more, I have a long list in fact, but free time is always at a premium. check out more and a video of the tricorder in action on...

I've looked at online blueprints, but haven't been able to uncover the diameter of the transporter base in Star Trek: TOS. Anybody feel like sharing? Thanks!

Bought a couple of these Wand Communicators and very impressed with them.:) So I'm going to see if I can convert one of them into a Beta version communicator and make a few changes to it along the way. Everyone is welcome to join in with ideas or suggestions.:cheers Need to open it and find...

Putting together both Kirk and Nurse Chappel costumes. What were the boots? Thx!
