Is it easy to dismantle? The gold gear looks like it can be take down and cast.
Obviously I'd be in if there's a run.

The gold parts are actually 3d printed plastic painted gold. Real obvious up close. It would be great to have the original files to have it printed in higher resolution. I haven't tried dismantling it but I doubt it would be difficult. I don't really know how to make a run of this but if someone with the skill had an interest I would help out where I could. Not to ruin the magic but the functional part of this in the movie was cgi. All this does it allow you to rotate the dials and the gears.
I agree, original prop has its own value. And it's always nice to have the replica and the prop side by side for comparison.
Not sure how much value a prototype has. It is a good source for measurements and seeing how the actual prop worked.
I was watching the movie the other day and looking at the soldiers' shoulder lights because I got one, and you can see lots of spots in the movie where the light shines through the areas where the paint chipped off. You have to be looking for it, but it really makes it obvious it's a painted cast part. I never would have noticed except mine has a lot of spots and I thought they'd never use it in that condition, but they all had them.

Sure. When I have some time I'll put together some info. The guy that bought the actual prop refused to share pictures of it because he doesn't want anyone to make replicas and devalue his prop, so I say the more replicas the better.
Cool. I like that this is starting to feel like a collaborate effort. pinder91 says he wants to work on the gear modeling.

There seem to be several pages with symbols that appear on the discs. Auction resolution again.

Hmm. Links don't work for me.
I can take picture of that page when I have some time. There are a couple pages that looks like characters index in the journal.
