My BTTF Hover Board

[GreenRock]

Hey everyone, I finally finished my BTTF hoover board. However, I feel it is sub par. This holiday when I go back to my father's (he has every tool ever) we are going to improve on my design. One thing that I need however is the board graphics. The last guy that created the sticker messed it up. I was looking through my files and here on therpf for the graphics. Its a file of the board graphics and not a screen capture. Does anyone have this or a link to it? Also I am going to take some pictures later and let you guys see what I need to fix, and maybe you can point out other stuff so it's screen accurate. This is only my second project (the first being the Inception Totems). Thanks for the help. And maybe I will have some cool before and after shots.

Looking forward to see the pics :thumbsup

Here are the pics. The graphic on the top are wrong. The black stripe needs to be green and the bottom center piece needs to be pink not blue. My GF pointed out the black stripe thing. My dad and I are trying to cut the silver part out of the wood and make a metal piece that goes in the center. Also the red brackets holding the round hoover pieces are made of red foam and I want to make them from plastic.

I think that is a mighty fine board you've made so far !

I'm sure the expert BBTF fellows will chime in with their suggestions for improvement.

I also want to drill a hole in it and build the handles that Marty pulls off of it. That would be cool. I have not seen anyone make that before.

After some digging I found the link. http://www.therpf.com/f9/full-size-hover-board-layouts-20286/

Wow, that's an awesome job! Looks amazing so far! Apparently there were a few versions of the board, some with a lighter green line, and sometimes with a darker one. If you are going to replace the black, research some pics and pick the shade of your choosing!

P.S. Re: Hoover Board...at least you spelled it right on the board. :angel:lol

Very nice! Would love to see some before shots too!

 

[GreenRock]

These are the before shots. The after shots will be of the silver wood replace by metal, the blue piece becoming pink and the foam brackets turning into plastic ones that come up and look like they are holding the metal piece on. Any other things you guys can think of? I want to make the handle bars he rips off. So I need to drill a hole.

Don't You know that a Hoover Board is a flying Vacuum Cleaner. Or you can just stand on Top of the former President... J. Edgar was magical.

Always a great prop.

Ha. Those guys at Dyson are always coming up with something new. :lol

In all seriousness, great replica GR!

Nice work! I tried to make one out of foam once...the shape was actually pretty accurate but I never finished it...

I would absolutely love to see someone make an accurate set of handlebars for their hoverboard, I don't think that's ever been attempted.

I see a lot of good detail in your hover board.

 

[cordaroyfog]

Wow fantastic reproduction. Love to see props like this made from scratch with such detail!
