Baker's Sonic Screwdriver: Does anyone have measurments ?

I just found out that I have access to a metal lathe that my grandfather had down his basement.

I am currently working on Tennant's version of Doctor Who's sonic screwdriver and am looking forward to the other versions as well. I printed off the picture from the VD and based my piece off of that.

Can someone offer up sizes so I can work on a pattern to develop the piece I have in the title? I have looked at some of the other prop makers versions of Baker's driver and have realized that I won't be able to make some of the angled cuts, but I should be able to make the majority of the parts.
Any help would be appreciated.

The Dr. Who Technical Manual had blueprints. I don't know how accurate they were, but they sure looked pretty good. Printed over full size, but they had a scale with it so it could be sized properly. They didn't have it all dimensioned out for each piece, tho, just a scale with the line drawing.

The overall length is 8 inches if you use the tech manual as your base you'll get a fairly accurate piece using that length.

I printed off the specs page cut it out and made my pattern from the cut out image. It measures 8 1/4 so it was pretty close.

Thanks for the input, at least now I know I am not off by much. :thumbsup
