Screen Used Jedi Comlink Prop Replica

I have been working on this during a few months and found several parts of them, I even identified some parts, like the correct acorn nuts or the electrical socket pins that were used as antennas. Wanted to share them with you, as well the other parts that remain unidentified. Maybe you will think outside the box and give me some fresh ideas about them:

Step 1. The body:

Step 2 The Mold:

Step 3 Identifying the parts:

All necessary parts are described here (Some of them will be laser cut, other CNC machined):

If you identify some of the parts, please let me know, the 3d models were created for that. To help us identify the parts that sometime, glued to the whole prop, can´t be appreciated.

PS: This is the original discovery thread were you can read specific details:

That's an excellent thread. I can't identify the parts..yet. The threads aren't in english, too bad I can't render the language well.

Now is the tan coloured item a resincomlink ?

RPF thread is in English.

and about the tan colored comlink. Yes, It is a razor body painted with primmer paint. Which is normally gray. the other one, the greenish one is polyester resin. Hope this helps.

I was looking at a thread in spanish.

For my comlink's mic I'd used the removable screwdriver 'bits', with the hexagonal portion serving as a mic. It had the look.

I'd used lugs, sodering lugs, gaskets, E retaining rings, even the female ends of snaps.

I found that this could be a good replacement for the mic part:



You know, the stick. You will have to sever it.

Have been there. It is a great start, but outdated. I working along Chris Trevas finding the remains parts or even finding the codes for some others. He surely will have a lot of work updating that page.

A good friend of mine, sent me those samples he did last week. He lives in USA and is willing to help us. We are talking about different kind of materials and thickness, but the precision is excellent.:ohbaby

Thanks Tony!

I finally got the second set of samples. They are WONDERFUL. The thickness are just there. We will have to correct the propeller like buttons and the tab lock washer. The rest of the pieces are dead on or could be sanded to achieve our objective.
