Some fat dude in a McGann costume. Good thing it was Halloween otherwise he'd be a real geek. 
Funny you should mention Check and Mate considering that was a DW Fan Audio I wrote for a friend years ago: http://www.doctorwho.damproductions.org/html/series1/0104.htm
Turned out fairly well if I do say so myself.

I love my sonic screwdrivers (well my future self does, but he told me the ns one is fantastic and why would i lie to myself)
unfortuneatley my Z grade fanfilm never got finished (one lousy 5 minute scene short) before my college friends split after graduation so i cant make any other claims

Hey, man, we're just stalling for time until Neill or Russ posts something about us all getting our wish and getting MilleniumFX metal bodied sonics with screamingly ultra bright blue LED's and a night indestructible build all courtesy of RussRep's uber-machine shop.
It's sort of like that talking about the weather to stave off nervousness thing...

Had a horrible thought over the weekend. Russ told me that he could not make one in the $100.00 range, would need to be more. So, if he makes them for Neill....who needs his mark-up for profit....Could we be looking at a $300.00 replica? :cry

Don't forget - making things one at a time is a lot more expensive than doing 10,000 at a time. The price drops the more that are made because of bulk orders of materials and several worker related factors. Making one metal object requires a machinist, making a full run requires a machine shop. With a massive number ordered the price would be a lot less...we hope.

I was actually really surprised that the estimate was originally that low. It would definently be cheaper to have them mass produced. But I wonder if with as complex as the thing is if the final product will end up trading off some accuracy/quality for mass production? For example the tip on the real one looks like it was machined but I think it would likely be cheaper to cast that part. Just things like that. I have a few of RussReps Sonic Screwdrives, but unless I am mistaken those were made one at a time. Could that type quality and detail be maintained if they are mass produced at that scale? :confused

I figured I would bump this thread as I saw MFX posting in the cyberman helmet thread.
Any updates?

And so, here it is..
I knew this would happen the moment I posted.
I can't say a thing other than I hope things may be looking positive. We've had lots of false starts and been almost there so many times but we're still working VERY hard to try and make this happen. Rest assured it's not forgoten about and progress is being made every day. Slow bloody progress, but progress all the same!

Would be nice to finally see this come to fruition! The prototypes were very nice and I know there has been continuous debates...now with Matt Smith coming up in a year, I wonder if the design will yet again change or if we'll keep on seeing this design.
I love your work Neill, looking forward to seeing this come about and I will be one of teh first in line...I think you are lucky that those of us really wanting one are across the pond
