Thanks Timegirl!  I'll reduce the text another 5% or so before I do the final version, and I may replace the braided phone cord with a solid one.  I have the brackets to add to the bottom, as well.

Many thanks to chriskingbees for facilitating my acquisition of two excellent brass bow handles.  I've just finished nickel-plating them:

Thanks again!

 :D Awesome handles! I wish we had them down here! Oh well, you can't have everything I suppose.

Well, hence the inestimable value of friends from overseas.  Can't get them in Canada, either!

Cleaned it up a bit to make it match the Cushing lock a bit more:

A scale drawing of my box-to-be, possibly subject to further revision.  Elements from several boxes.

looks pretty "tardisy" to me, i'm guessing you left off the small box underneath the beacon because of height restrictions. good job and a build to watch for sure. how deep are you planing to set your walls back.... just curious

Thanks!

Height restrictions, the fact that you can't see the top from below, and that the various props sometimes didn't have the little box, or had a very very small one.

The doors and walls will be 1 11/16" back from the front face of the column.
