STAR WARS ESB base display question

[Loanstar]

I want to build a small life size Star Wars Scene in my Gallery that showes
Boba FETT and the Stormtrooper in the ESB Carbonchamber scene.

As a base for the statues, I would like to have the grill floor look of the chamber.

Does anybody of our members made these already?
Are there any AUTO CAD / AutoCad files about it?

Would be great if you can give me any inforrmation.

Dear MOD, If its not allowed to post this link please let me know and I will remove it.

Thanks

Mike

I could give it a try if you like.
Do you have an estimate of the dimension you need this to be?

 

[ave4uevoli]

Tom spina makes those bases. Google him or do a search here insure you'll find him

 

[Loanstar]

Hey Thomas,

thanks for the info.
I contacted Tom but it seems that his base is to heavy for a transport.

Someone else that has maybe any CAD Files?

Let me know

Mike

A fellow R2 Builder made lots of these and brought them to the R2 Builders room at CV.

Here's a lil' Carbon Freeze Chamber-style base that I made a few years back...

It doesn't have any grill details on the top of the mannequin base, but that wasn't the look I was going for... I tried to get the look of the steps from the Carbon Freeze Chamber, incorporated into a mannequin base :cool

Dunno anything about CAD, but I was able to craft this with good ole' plywood 'n' pencils

If anyone's interested, here's the link to the thread I posted back in 2006:

Good luck with your illuminated mannequin base(s) - please post lots of pics of the finished items!

Cheers,

I drew up that circle area behind Lando awhile back in preparation for a base build for my collection.

Some 10 years ago or so I built a display for Steve Sansweet's Carbonite and Don Post Fett. I probably still have dimensions on it somewhere here. I know I kept the master template for the slots on the carbonite piece.

John,

this looks realy fantastic, you made a great job.
Thanks for sharing this with us

I am looking for the grill version.

Dear Phil,

your display looks also amazing

I already have finished my ROTJ Jabba Scene so HIC has a very good place

I now thought about puting my ESB Boba in a nice display together with a Stromtrooper and maybe Vader.

So if you have any files that would help me .

Can't find my sketch book. It's currently packed in a box I think.

I pulled out the templates I used to make the carbonite stand and measured them.

The slots are 1.5" wide and either 7" or 9" long.

Here are some more of the build photos that might help. One of the tricks of the internal design was to allow support of the top and access to the backlight bulbs underneath.

Hey Phil,

this looks amazing.
Now I know where the mousedroids live

 

[Loanstar]

DARK-SIDE was so nice to make me the correct cad file.
Soon I can start with building the under-base.

You don't mean the yellow ones do you? :rolleyes

 

[darthwhitey]

I've been kicking around ideas for a base for my Fett to sit next to my new HIC.

Great ideas in this thread!

I hadn't thought of a larger base to display both (like Rebelscum's!)...that is really cool!

Following this thread with much interest! :thumbsup

I've tried to make a design for the chamber.
Here's the whole floor in 1/10th scale.
Since it's vector shape it can be easily scaled in 1/1

Sorry for going a little off topic, but has anyone noticed that bobas knee guards are upside down in this pic? At least I think their upside down, I could be mistaken though.

 

[Bruce Wayne]

Nope I didn't notice until you pointed it out. They're upside down
