Ah cool, looks like some enterprising gentleman and scholar posted one on the Indy fandom as well, I'll link straight to the image in case spoilers arise from the article: Dial of Destiny
Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny
- Thread starter Jintosh
- Start date
This is a confusing multilayer object. The earlier picture is at a layer BELOW the surface of the later picture top disk. Meaning you can only see the detail when the hole in the top disk turns and shows what's on the second layer disk through the hole in the top disk. This may be harder to model than I first thought.
I'm a super novice - beginner at 3d modeling but I also had to sit through some extremely mind-numbing meetings today and tinkered a little in Shapr3d with my iPad while I pretended to listen to the talky talkies..
The source is below if anyone more talented can turn this from suck into something decent.
STLs on Github
I'll continue to tinker with it too as time allows and more information about the prop becomes available.
PS,
Forgive the scaling issues, I'm not sure what was up with Shapr3d vs the Slicer - might have also been my ADHD kicking in or possibly just the aforementioned bad-at-this.

It really does look like a neat little mechanism, all that detail in the inscriptions is going to be tedious as well
mm hmm.. I wondering how that spiral spring is going to interact (assuming it even does) and drives that panel / window beneath. It reminds me a lot of the lunar phases portions of grandfather clocks where you have this disc spinning at a much lower gear than the rest. From that still, I can't really tell but it sort of looks like the outer hexagonal box is raised partially on the upper right 3rd, I don't know if it is a trick of perspective and those are shadows or if those are actually seams?
Edit: Someone on the Indygear forums said someone has already made a 3d print model (on facebook) but my facebook-fu is weak, couldn't find it.

Having lots of trouble putting together a cosplay of Voller, the villain of the film. Almost every piece seems to be custom-made with his wardrobe from the clear/brown horn-rimmed acetate eyeglasses to the patterned tie and the black leather field satchel.
Any leads?

Goofing around in Shapr3D until we get more info:
STL Files are here if anyone wants to remix: Dial of Destiny Prop Build, Mark I — Arcade Shenanigans

Yeah! If you do put one up for sale (printed parts or model), put me on your interest-list. I'd happily buy a better looking one, functional or non. I'm really just piddling around. Its a fun time-spend waiting on the new movie and inhabiting the Indy universe again after being away for awhile.
I did end up finding a lead on the one for sale on facebook but the facebook group it was featured on (hasn't) approved my request to join so I didn't have a chance to reach out and get on his wait-list. Later, I saw from another forum post I think the author wasn't thrilled about it being shared out off fb - wants to control the exposure. I get that, probably just trying to keep it manageable and/or maybe not draw the attention of the mouse's army of professional litigants.
I'm printing a slightly better quality, 200mm one now to send it to school with my wife to see if I can bribe the art teacher with favors, coffee, wine or lunches to add some glyphs to it and provide feedback / notes.

I ran a bunch of PETG parts for a friends' custom pinball game this weekend and I'm having some strange / new / intermittent wavy top layers, sort of slowed me down a bit, although ironically those imperfections actually look kind of cool when applied to the center "compass-like" component.
At any rate, my current iteration is below.
This one is 200mm by 200mm. It adds a circular window to the bottom that pivots against a small block, a set of offset spacers so things can actually move a little and changes the way the outer box and inner-bowl-like parts fit together. (Sort of snaps in place)
The hand at the top is too delicate, though / keeps breaking. (It is glued in this picture)
The main enclosure, in this case is Bambu Iridium Gold Metal PLA (bad name: it's not a metal-blend, just metallic sheen)
The rest of the gold pieces is an Amazon find: Silk Champagne Gold from HZST3D. I liked it for making my Fertility Idol and whenever I see it pop up on Amazon I try to grab a roll for this sort of application.
The white is Flashforge Natural, the Spring Mech was an Inland PLA Plus, I believe the color is Kona brown.
I haven't really tracked down yet good PETG or ABS colors yet but hope to but I need to replace the carbon filter in my Bento box before I run anymore ABS.
Source files for the above print are on the github repo: 3dPrintStuff/Indy/DoD at main · graffitilogic/3dPrintStuff
Being able to turn it around in my hand, I guess I'm starting to see how you could add a few small gears that interface with the View Finder disc. The gearing for the two primary hands is still outside of my mental grasp, though. I guess the next major revision I'll try to add some depth to the ring and figure out a way to mount that rail-hand-thingy.
Painted, it comes out like this:
EDIT: This is 8-sided, which it turns out is wrong. I'm a victim of my own confirmation bias, an email I'd gotten from someone on production describing the prop as octagonal coupled with my programming day job that really likes numbers to be equally divisible by 8. The bummer of a six sided model is its going to push the overall print size to a smaller scale to be able to fit the print bed. (Longer sides on the hexagonal version)

Someone over on Indygear pointed me to this collection of amazon goodies,..
Amazon.com : Brass Nautical
Lots to draw inspiration from. heck I bought one of the smaller pieces just b/c I thought it would be a cool piece, theme-adjacent.
