Guts of an electric motor, probably the same one you used in the ginormous walker. I like! |

Those candlesticks will certainly need a little tweaking to suspend disbelief, I just see big candlesticks. A good start, I look forward to seeing what you do with them. |

Just….. wow. Your work always amazes me. The guitar strings are a fantastic touch. - Ix |

Really coming together now that paint is on it. I wasn't sold on the candlestick/smokestacks before, but they do work quite nicely. |

The good Colonel has made beads into VSF cybermen, a couple wine glasses into Buck Rogers' grandfather's rocket, and random bits of household detritus into a stargate. Converting a candlestick into a smokestack is one of the easy projects. (I can't stop giggling about a TP tube boiler…) I'm more curious what he's going to do with the tape bits holding the exposed coils of wire together on the exposed side of the stargate. He seems to have a good idea for everything. I wish I had half his creativity. - Ix |

Wow. I guess folks like me don't have any talent in order for you to have it all. |

Thanks guys! Much appreciated! Here's the finished Stargate! link
Loads of pics on the blog. Hope you like! |

Oh, WOW!!!!
Very nice, Colonel. So, when are you going to dust off that monster walker and get it going again?

Crap, I ran out of superlatives. Hang on, gotta reload…
That is simply delightful. Bravo!
You should get hold of a cheap little LED UV flashlight and see if it gives the transluscent stargate interior an eerie glow.
If it doesn't, give it a wash with some fluorescing paint and try again.  - Ix |

Those candlesticks will certainly need a little tweaking to suspend disbelief, I just see big candlesticks. How about now? - Ix |

Excuse me while I laugh maniacally and splurt my beer. And thanks! |

YOU MAD FOOL! You have to know the event horizon is going to disintegrate the head of your condenser, don't you? But, once you've rebuilt it in a more suitable location, and beefed up the grounding of your Ruhmkorff Coil, it should work just fine. Yr. Obdt. Svt. N. Tesla |
