Hey I’m new here and I want to build the 2010 new dalek and I was wondering how did you all make the shoulders? Other parts are much more easier than the shoulders. If you could tell me how did you make the shoulders I would be so grateful!

And just to round off that update, here’s the shoulders all glued up and together as one piece for the first time. In their current form they weigh ~5.3kg and feel immensely solid, no flex at all. I still need to trim the wooden bits smooth.      Today I also finished up with the dome touch ups, so it’ll be filler primer and sanding from now on. I’m in no rush to grey prime it as painting is a long way off and a lot of mechanisms still need to be put in.  On the subject of mechanisms, I just wanted to bounce ideas off you good people. I have 2 designs for attaching slats, one with screws/bolts from the inside with threaded inserts (the shoulders only have holes for the top) and one with super strong magnets. Maybe cut a hole in the second skin to allow me to glue a magnet, hidden, for the bottom attachment. Not sure, drop your thoughts below.    Also, for my plunger arm, I’m considering making it from PVC pipe as well, as I want all my “metal” parts (gun arm, plunger arm, eyestalk) to look the same so ideally will use the same painting process. I’d cover the bushes in something soft like sponge and silk, and add a strong lacquer to avoid paint scraping during operation. Interested fo hear your thoughts.    happy exterminating!

I'm only on YouTube and I didn't even see it there...
