TARDIS fridge. AKA WHAT HAVE I DONE?

[Revvy]

So are we gonna see pics of this thing? I was hoping top see some of the process.

Just take as much time as you need, then, when you are finished travel back in time and give it to her when she needs it.

Go old school with the micro and turn it into K-9. :fro:

Damn you!

I took some before pics. After I put the graphics on I'll post the results.

Then I'll start designing the REAL TARDIS! I already have half of the wood necessary to put it together (I hope) and the paint.

Only problem is I keep my mash tun and a kettle on top and I REALLY want to put a light on top. I think I know how to create a flasher circuit for the light and how to rig up the sound effects...

Here is what I started out with:

And here is the final product:

It's not really bigger on the inside

 

[Homercidal]

I just realized I forgot to photoshop the small round sticker on the right door. Too late now. I'll have to glue it on if I want to include it.

I should get dimensions for the microwave and build a papercraft K-9 to put it into. I can take it down one of these weekends when we go to Broncos Football game (She'll be playing piccolo in the marching band.)

 

[ThatGeekGuy]

That's freaking nice, how could she not love it? And you for taking the time to do it....

 

[stratslinger]

Nicely done!

 

[loud1]

Nicely done! Your daughter should be very proud to display your handywork.

 

[Revvy]

Holy moses, bro, that is fantastic!!!!!!

 

[Homercidal]

Thanks! It would have been nicer with the top finished off, but there is limited space in a dorm and they already planned on doing the microwave thing. I'm going to try and remember to take measurements of the microwave when we move them down on Sunday. I can totally picture K-9 with a microwave on the side. Just have to make sure it gets good ventilation.

And thank God for having a large format printer at work!

yup, you forgot the st john ambulance emblem although I guess it depends on which doctors tardis your going for..

 

[thatfatbastard]

That is awesome. Good job, I'm sure your daughter will appreciate it.

 

[ajlee]

Awesome job! Looks amazing!

 

[purplehaze]

Man does that bring back memories of watching that show as a kid. Great idea and excellent job.

Got my daughter moved into her dorm. I brought the fridge up wrapped in a blanket and was going to video tape her first reaction but there was a misunderstanding about where the video camera was and before I could get my other daughter the camera, Kim had pulled the blanket off!

They went nuts!

Her roommate actually had a brown bowtie on a magnet so she put it on the front and now it looks like a TARDIS AND A DOCTOR AT THE SAME TIME!

Good times.

 

[Shooter]

Well done sir!

 

[Homercidal]

Called my daughter while driving back home from fixing my sister's van in Grand Rapids and she said she's gotten a lot of comments about her Dr. Who shirt at marching band camp. Band Geeks are apparently also Sci-Fi geeks. Who knew?

Bowties are cool.

And always will be!

Am I missing something? Where's the tap? How will the beer come out?

AH, well, the school frowns upon alcohol in the dorms.

However, I feel there is a VERY good chance that after she is done needing a dorm fridge I will acquire the Unit and turn it into a Thermally Automated Homebrew Dispensing Intoxication System. (TAHDIS)

Or, if I have some major breakthroughs in design and available time, a DALEK (Dispenser of ALEs from Kegs)

that is what i have been picturing in my head lately.. thinking the guts could start with one of thoes round refrigerated coolers from the gas station.. i see mainly the ice bins ones but a couple electric ones too

In case anyone is interested, there is an entire site dedicated to the building of DALEKs.

Uh, scratch that. There is more than one...

Dalek City

Project Dalek

Some of the stuff in there is pretty detailed.

My basic plan of attack was to keep my eyes open for a very small dorm fridge and build a DALEK around it, or strip it's working parts out to install into an insulated DALEK.

 

[edmanster]

thats awesome!

Would the beer come out of the plunger? Or the blaster?

 

[tszetela]

This thread is just fill of WIN!

I think that I now know what I am going to do to my Kegarator!

 

[edmanster]

Would the beer come out of the plunger? Or the blaster?

i would almost want the top of the head to hinge back to expose a single faucet tower and maybe a couple glasses

 

[Homercidal]

The plunger could double as a urinal port!!


Or, is that taking things a bit too far??
