Image request... Hartnell Meters

[Rassilons Rod]

Does anyone know where I would find some good closeups of the meters on the Hartnell console?

I have a good one of the one on the RHS of the 2 that are right next to eachother. And I have just bodged one for the RHS meter of the other pair (the 2 that are separated by the 2 orange rotatey things).

Cheers in advance

Hey yeah, that one is cool I should be able to do something about that one on the left now...

Shame we don't know what it says...

That's uncanny! I was going to ask exactly the same question, so I can make sure the IR console is as accurate as possible!

Cheers celation, nice link!

Anyone know what the telepathic circuits are made of?

[celation]

Possibly... what do you mean by the telepathic circuits?

Well - yes. The piece of card is just representative of the box itself, which I don't have yet. I was just trying to work out the correct size so I know what I'm looking for.



The boxes are actually "adaptable" electrical enclosure boxes, I believe - which have this pattern of corner screws. Probably plastic rather than metal, because of the rounded outer corners.

I'm 99.9% sure that the lamp is correct. It even has a rim around it where it can sit into the hole in the box in the same manner. Obviously it needs a circle of silver painting on top, and the "segmented" look is from the bulbs which are underneath it. You can hear the clicker on the soundtrack as it rattles through the connections. The colour I'm not certain of. Fairly sure it should be amber based on the Inferno pictures.

The other circular displays on the console are a mixture of this type of lamp and another 60s lens.

Bulbs? Are you using a generic term for lighting things, or have I missed something?

I've always been under the impression they are LEDs... I thought they looked kinda rectangular?

And also (unless my memory fails me again, its been a while since I worked on my console, or
looked at the references), isn't there a silver dome on top too? (matching the curvature of the
cover) - or is that more paint? I have to admit I thought it was a metal plate, in both cases,
rather than paint.
