Here I present for your delectation, pictures of the Classic styled sonic screwdriver constructed by myself, being inspired by the designs of Teletran and Greatwazoo42's build.  These represent the culmination of the build, before moving on to the next project.

Perhaps I'm old and tired, but I think that the chances of finding out what's actually going on are so absurdly remote that the only thing to do is to say, "Hang the sense of it," and keep yourself busy. I'd much rather be happy than right any day.

Thank you for taking the time to look through these pictures.  I appreciate that many have already been posted, but I wanted them to all be together to form a final collection.

That is very cool.  I like the changes you made to make it a unique piece.  Especially the change to the conical section and the head.  Very impressive work.  Bravo!

Thank you Greatwazoo42 for your comments.  I may be attending the Memorabilia show in Birmingham at the end of March if I can afford it.  I'll try to get some pics when I am there. :)

Hi that is a cool sonic screwdriver.

What would be a neat feature if you could embed a laser into the head of the unit.
Or maybe this is a good idea. Current lasers you can buy would be too big to go into the head of the screw driver, but how about laser and battery in the handle.
The laser could go up the stem of the unit hitting a mirror at 45 degree angle in the head and it would look like it has a laser function.
