I was looking at a friends DVD and Cd Holder and thought that this could be made to look like the Tardis.
My Wife along with me are keen Doc Who fans.

All I would need to do is build the main storage all  to hold DVD as I have a area for my CD's already.

All I would need to do was add the outer Tardis design.
I wanted to use some of the scrape ply that I had along with an old office table top.

I am now at the stage that I will be giving the timber work an undercoat then I will paint the shelves as I have had trouble in the past paint the shelves when they are all together just need to take care when assembling but I have found it easier to touch up then to paint from the start in small enclosures.

Just need to wait to return home from a job to complete the paint and build.

This is just the first coat for the Blue I will be sanding back then filling any problem areas before the 2nd Coat on the shelves.
Will leave the outside areas till close to completions.DVD Cabinet 1st cote 3.JPGDVD Cabinet 1st Cote 1.JPG
I have most of the plans set out for the front doors and the top so with a bit of luck and clear weather should be moving along quicker then the past.IMG_1277.JPG

Is that the shade of blue the Old Girl will be when you're done? It looks a lot like the color the TARDIS was in "The Three Doctors".

Eagerly awaiting to see her take shape.
