I am looking for info on the Guardian of Forever. Any measurements that anyone might have would be helpful or line drawings that could be expanded for tracing out on form or wood.

Are you talking about the Star Trek Guardian of Forever? If so, I would suggest finding the small model they made of Kirk and Spock and the Guardian. You should then be able to take those measurements and just multiply them out. Also, if you could find someone who has been on the superb Star Trek Tour that is traveling the country, I believe people are allowed to take photos very close to it!
I don't know if those two options will help, but it will at least be a starting point...
I wish you the best! Post photos of your progress!

Got some info does anyone know what the measurments might be? If not I'll just fake it.
Hey tekmage3000,
I am not sure to what small model BladeFanChuckster is referring to but I do know that Hallmark put out an ornament in 2004. The problem with it is that it is not very accurate looking.
I would suggest that your best bet would be to go to http://www.trekcore.com/ and download any screenshots of it from the episode!
Then you could extrapolate the size of it from Kirk and Spock standing in front of it. If I remember correctly Leonard Nimoy is about 6' tall, William Shatner is a couple inches shorter!
Hope that is helpful, Petseal

Thanks that site is a gold mine. Lots of great shots in there. I should be able to work out a pattern from there.
Thanks again

Don't forget that there are HD screencaps there from the new remastered versions. City on the Edge of Forever is on the last page.

Well if it ever drys up here I am going to make my pattern for the Guardian. I have my shots and my art projector. I'll take some rosin paper put it up on my shed (just to mount it ) and start tracing for the pattern.
Now I am thinking of foam insulation board with a plywood backing. I may coat it "Sculpt and Coat" and then paint. This is going to by my phase 1 version. After I would like to get it to glow and put in a voice circuit. Please feel free to toss out any idea's on the subject.
