Build a Bunch of Table Top Tardis

Lets Build Them:

Parts List:

25 Boxes from Uline 

4-5 cans of Sail Blue color Rustoleum paint (Lowes or Home Depot). The color is close to Tardis blue and I found the color value on line to make a swatch from to use in inkscape. If you want to be true to the show, there is the BBC Authorized TARDIS Blue: Pantone 2295C

5 8' sections of 3/4”X1/4” screen molding 
This gets cut into 5” pieces and each Tardis uses 4. Make extra! They make great refrigerator magnets.

40 11X17 prints of the attached pdf.

20 1W LED's mounted on a star

20 75Ohm 1/2W Resistors buy 100 they are cheap

20 nine volt battery clips 

20 nine volt batteries (Alkaline!)

1 can spray glue 

Wood glue or white school glue for paper
Tools:

Hot Glue and glue gun

Utility knife (with new blade)

Small piece of cardboard (to make cutout template)

Pencil

Scrap wood to use as cutting surface

Paper shear (or scissors) I borrowed one.
