Any of u bright minds out there with a solution?

The tongs are spring loaded and won't turn the other way in the bottle.

I'm thinking something elaborate with magnets and string
Metal coat hanger, you'll destroy it in the process, but which is easier to replace: a coat hanger or a pair of tongs and 5 gallon bottle?

No elaborate use of strings and magnets required.

A TARDIS-themed BRZ that is not just for show. That means changing color to TARDIS blue for starters (a bit deeper blue than WRB). I think a light on top of the antenna, instead of going with the ever-popular shark-fin is another thing for it. Then of course the exterior design stuff. Going to do an interior color redesign anyway, so that'll work as well.

Do this, and I will love you forever! No homo.

Why not try to recreate the light from the top of the TARDIS to function as an antenna cover?

I think the TARDIS blue is basically the Ultramarine but without the metal flake in it? Depends on which TARDIS you're trying to model this after.

You should also find a way to remove the rear seats and move the front seat mounting points back a few inches, that way people might actually say "Its bigger on the inside" without lying through their teeth.

I have little to add other than which Doctor/interior design are you going to go with? That and you have to rewire your horn to make the tardis sound.


Also this is a good excuse to post the tardis costume I made my daughter for comicon last weekend.

Started making the billiard ball shifters. I'm keeping the 7 and the Cue ball. I might keep the 2 also. The others, I can make for sale if anyone wants one.

I was thinking $25 plus shipping unless we club ship or meet up. I'll start a dibs list in my phone, you get 3.

I need a night to make each one, line it up on my shifter and let the epoxy set for a while before doing the next one. If it doesn't line up perfectly on your shifter, stuff some tissue or little bit of foam or rubber into the end to tighten things up.

I'm keeping 7 and Cue, possibly the 2 also.


I'll order some more fittings. I can probably have them all done in 1-2 weeks from now.
