The Fifth Element - 4 A DAY smoke dispenser

Please remind me, do the cigs pop up or come down the tubes? If they pop up then a spring loaded platform could be rigged with a release switch pretty easily.

Neither.. The tubing piece containing the smoke, slides down into the " To quit is my goal " section at the bottom.. The tube sits out of the block at the bottom up to the end of the white section of the cigarette..
 
Sure thing, anything i can do to contribute to someone with facilities to make a resin mold is always on offer.

There are so many people here I'm sure someone will pop on like maybe Droidboy or Mutant Enemy. I'm shipping my stuff to Mojo in the UK for my run

Yeah, but you never know what other projects people have going on at the time and most of those guys may want a break to do other non-5E stuff.
 
The guys I just mentioned pm or offered via the thread hence why I said them but again there are tons of guys that can.

well yeah. Its scarilly easy to do something like this.
heck it's not even that hard to make it either quasi or fully functional.

the key thing obviously would lay in accuracy. And how many details you want there (read how dead on you want it)

p.s: just saying. I'm one of those members that rarely say much, but am lurking around.
 
Great to see all the interest.
Apart from the mechanics of dropping the cigs and CL tube down, all that is needed is some electronics for the side lights and the "4 a day" and "TO QUIT IS MY GOAL" audio.
The hero would only need one tube to drop halfway, not all four so that simplifies things a little. When i get a chance, will take some more, helpful to builders pics and post them.
 
Thanks guys, it was one of my favorite out of the blue projects. Doesnt look like there will be a hero version any time soon though.
 
Your prop looks awesome. I'm also am working on the smoke dispensor and am really looking for the text that is behind the "tubes"... Do you have any idea what it says? Thanks for your help and any info you have.
 
Sorry, not meaning to necropost, but this prop is great. I hope to see another one, especially with all those bells and whistles!
