Newbery Box Plans
« Thread Started on Sept 30, 2009, 7:44pm »

Here's the first stab at the plans:

Purp tells me despite the metric plans, the prop was built more or less to imperial standards. For this reason I have chosen to draw imperial plans that try to look more like the prop as we have seen it before any major modifications or with the best bits. This means it has a proper fresnel with 3 supports, a beveled door divider but no Logopolis and future redressing.

Please test, render and correct the plans. Later I will add the top view and appropriate dims.

You and I seem to be treading the same waters. I've got mine over in the TV TARDISes section. Here's mine.

Just for reference, here are the dimensions I used in my Sketchup build. These were just made assuming a 78 inch door height and estimating the other dimensions as best I could from photographs.

I know there are at least 3 threads knocking about at the moment that are covering this subject, but I decided to put it here

Newbery Plans Update
« Reply #3 on Oct 18, 2009, 9:15pm »

The plans have been tweaked. The door span is a bit wider. The lintels are a smidge taller. The posts are taller.

Also remember:
panel bevels are 5/8" deep / 45 degrees
lintels and top roof step corners do not terminate at center of posts - they're wider
