  that is next when I feel more comfortable going out and about, I don't have enough wood right now. That might be a a while as cases of COVID are going up here in northern VA and I don't want to tempt fate on this,   really want to get this thing motorized.

Yikes, thats a shame. Covid rates are variable here in the UK but some places are continuing to be diligent about it. Our household certainly is, only going out if completely necessary - he says having popped out for some tarpaulin because a heavy rainy storm was soaking the TARDIS :'(

Up and down is still a mystery to me, even as a father of two children... ::ba dum tish::

Excellent work!  But...

Your phased induction coils need tamping, and the plasma override injector manifold needs degaussing!  Don't try a temporal jump until they're sorted! 🤢

I've said this to you in private before but I do have a slight sense of ownership over this beauty and I can see that you've been paying attention to what I've said/written! ;-)

Semi-joking aside, in my best David Banks/Cyberleader voice: This is excellent!

Karsten...

Well done mate!

  Thank you guys,  I am going to put in a little back story to this build.   Back in 2017 I decided that I was really wanted to get a console build going. It had been a life long dream of mine.  I finally had the space to do it, a loving partner who was supporting it and the drive to do it.  Tony was in the midst of putting all of his research into diagrams that could be easily used to start the build so I reached out to him.  I contacted Tony as I wanted to create the console true to how the Kenneth Sharp was built.  Tony was very kind and supportive of course, but I am sure there was some skepticism if this guy (me) would actually follow through and build.    We all know the members who come here with grand plans and then disappear shortly after with nothing to show.  As I moved forward through the build, and it became apparent that I was in fact putting my money where my mouth was, Tony provided a lot of input, guidance, suggestions, pictures.  When Tony says he feels some ownership its because of   what we both put into this build, not only the endless research and extrapolated measurements but also as I wanted to make this as close to what was produced by the BBC back in 1971.   

  So this is a huge thank you to the individuals, whom I literally can count on one hand, that helped me with this build.

1) Tony Farrell - Again thank you, I literally could not have pulled this off without you

2) FiveFingerStyre - Steve, you and Tony inspired me to take the plunge with the Rotor Builds on my own, and you provided me with the help I needed to complete some of the parts I needed. 

3) 13drwho -  Without Jason's 3D cad work based on Tony's plans I would not have been able to reproduce the most accurate parts I could for this build.

4) AMachielson - Thanks to him opening up his Hartnell console and taking tons of pictures for me of the Telepathic Circuit I was able to backwards engineer it into a functioning unit on my console.

5) The members here that cheered me along in this build. I really could not have pulled this of without TARDIS Builders.   

       Thank you to everyone that helped me when I reached out for assistance,  it was greatly greatly appreciated.  For those that I reached out to that didn't want to help, ignored my emails, and shared zero with me.  Well its a shame and I don't know why you are a member here.   

  That is if for now, so thank you again TB and its Members
