As a childhood dream of mine, all your hard work has now been translated into 'A lucky man!'. Congrats on a beautiful Dalek (if those two words are ever used together to describe one) Hope your creation brings many many hours of joy, for both yourself and those witness to it.
Beyond impressive! It's perfection. I'd love to make a Dalek but the closest I've got is heating up a Gino Ginelli pizza that looked a bit like a Kaled mutant with black olives on it. Early days. But seriously... any advice for a complete novice? I was shite at woodwork at school. Thanks mate, I'm totally in awe. Can't wait to see what you do next. Subbed! 👏👏
Haha! Honestly my advice would be to spend a bit of time before hand researching other builds and seeing what works for you, and then just taking your time, anyone can build a Dalek well if they spend the time to do the job well. And thanks, there should be much more stuff coming soon!
Damn, that's awesome, I went to MCM on the friday, I am guessing you did one of the weekend days, Would have been awesome to see Dalek Sigma in person, great video and what a cracker of a photo of you and sylvester, he's such a legend isnt he, i met him and paul on friday
Thanks! Yeah I bought Sigma to MCM on the Saturday, although next May ill be bringing it along for all three days! Its a fun photo of Sigma and Sylvester isn't it, I think he liked the build and was quite humorous about it all. Paul McGann seemed lovely too!
Nice work! I too plan on doing a 60s prop at some point, albeit based on Dalek 1 rather than 7. I really adore the wooden gunboxes compared to the fiberglass ones, and it gives me an opportunity to have a go at the dilating Iris
Oh cool, its a very fun build! And the original gunboxes are very nice, I quite like the shape of them. The dilating iris too is a really nice feature!
Maybe squeeze a camera into the eyestalk so you know where it's looking? One thing I've noticed in most of these is they rarely make eye contact with who they're talking to.
@@Here_is_Waldo That's a very good idea, and I've seen some Daleks where that's been done. The difficulty is in getting the camera to hide away and not be visible in the eyestalk. But its a very good idea!
Like many - I'd love one, but you should see the replica Mac Classic I made in Woodwork class... 😯 Love that it's a specific Dalek, and not just an early era Dalek. Adds to the character, even though 99% of people who see it wouldn't have a clue...
Thanks for sharing so much info in a manageably short video. I have dreamed of owning a full sized Dalek for many years, but your build is one of the first times that I ever really understood what would be involved. I like your choice of Dalek generation, as it is truly iconic. Cheers from Canada.
Thanks, I tried to share as much information as I could in a small video, so I’m glad to hear it’s understandable. And the 60s Daleks are just so iconic.
That is a BEAUTIFUL object! ... So much better than those daft "Brass Daleks," or those stupid multi-coloured "hump-backed" monstrosities! ... The old Daleks are best!
Ahh its a shame that you missed Sigma. Luckily ill be bringing it to MCM May next year for all three days, so if you're going you might see Sigma then!
making the motorization by using an electric wheelchair is genius! how difficult was it to incorporate that into the dalek compared to using something else?
I deliberately added the screws in the eyestalk because I personally like the way they look. The original props also had the bolt and washer holding the plunger in place.
Sigma look Ace. I started to build a Dalek about 10 years ago but didn’t get very far, it’s been sitting in my garage all this time and I keep wanting to complete it but never seem to have the time or money sadly.
Back in the mid 80's I could have bought a Dalek it was about 1.2metre tall, but it was expensive about $400 , back then I was an apprentice chef and that was nearly a month's wage, so I didn't buy it to this day Iam pissed off that I didn't get it.
They're incredibly cool to own. As for how much it cost, the answer is too much! Im yet to add up the full amount but I recon its somewhere in the region of £3000-£4000, so quite a lot! Ive also no idea how much its worth, I guess to find that out i'd have to sell it, and I'm not planning on doing that anytime soon.
Very Nice build. I built a Genesis Dalek about 14 years back, but eventually had to sell it due to moving and not having the space. So now I build Virtual CGI Daleks instead. Love your Sixties build. Very good quality, you obviously put a lot of time and love into it, and it shows.
"everyone knows what a dalek is right?" ohhh i wish there was more people like that in mexico! hello i am dalekrulo from the project dalek forum :) beautiful dalek!
@@Helliconia54 Well the Mk1 props were the four originals used in "The Daleks". For the filming of "The Dalek Invasion of Earth" two new props were constructed, these are the MK2's. The original four props also got the dishes on their backs and the larger bases so they looked the same as the new props. Then there was one new Dalek constructed for "The Chase", this is the MK3, it had some notable differences to the other 6 existing TV props. Again, the other Mk1 and MK2 props had the upgrades made to them such as the slats added to the shoulders so all the props looked the same. If you're interested in the details I would highly recommend Dalek 6388 as they've done a load of research into this!
this looks lovely! i’m interested in getting a modulator do you have the link for the one you got? i went to the project dalek store and the only thing i could find was a membership
Hiya. Yeah to get the modulator you need to have an account and be an “active member”, which is a subscription that costs £5 a year. Once you're an active member you can get access to the “DVM8 support” section where you put your name on the list. I’m afraid I can’t provide a direct link to that, sorry!
Nicely done mate! 🏆 Best wishes from a maker of movie armour and a man who was once a guest musician at BBC Wood Norton. Filming ran over that day, so I was invited to stay the night. It was whilst walking to the accomodation block that I realized... 'This is where they filmed Robot!'. So at 3am, when everyone was sleeping... I sneaked out and went looking around the open delapidated sheds for the Brain of Morbius, Dalek parts or model light-houses. I wouldn't have stolen anything... But I would have hated myself if I hadn't had a look! Best wishes from a man in a medieval ruin in a French forest and his lobster-clawed bio-mechanical man-servant! 🦞🤖🤫 Good luck with the channel...

Thank you so much! That's very cool, and its always a funny feeling when you're at a filming location, especially when you're there unintentionally haha.
This looks better than the ones they actually used in the 60s.

it looks great! I think you even did a good job with your old Davros chair, not many people can make something full-size from a show!
Thanks!
Really interesting to see how you built it, looks amazing
Fantastic work... and the final shot with McCoy is the icing on the cake
Cool 😎👍💙👏⭐️🤩😆😄🙂😀😁😃😍👌💚

So you where the Dalek that exterminated me at MCM! 😂
Haha, yup!
Now that is a thing of beauty, well done.
Thanks!
Now I know what Im gonna do this summer break!
*pulls out moms credit card*
Haha!
this is amazing. I've wanted to build a dalek for years but it's just not feasible with the amount of tools and knowledge required
That is a BEAUTIFUL object! ... So much better than those daft "Brass Daleks," or those stupid multi-coloured "hump-backed" monstrosities! ... The old Daleks are best!
Great Dalek!!!!
Can you create a new video on how to create a 2005 time war Dalek?
I’m sorry but the fact it’s called sigma had my friend rolling and I did the sigma face💀but very nice dalek
Seek locate exterminate

I went to MCM in October but must've gone a different day, I would've loved to of seen sigma because 60's Daleks are my favorite too!
Ahh its a shame that you missed Sigma. Luckily ill be bringing it to MCM May next year for all three days, so if you're going you might see Sigma then!
Exterminate !
👍🏼 awesome 👍🏼 Now, make the TARDIS
Now that would be a fun project.
making the motorization by using an electric wheelchair is genius! how difficult was it to incorporate that into the dalek compared to using something else?
Why doesn't anyone build the Golden Emperor from the TV 21 comic strip?
You know, I've seen one of those somewhere! So there's at least one out there.
@@whopropsmodels9710 ruclips.net/video/BnAIORy7gkg/видео.html This black variant, is pretty cool.
Always wanted to build my own Dalek. I lack the skills and tools to do so tho Xp
It’s my actual dream to own one
They're definitely worth it!
this is very impressive 😁🤩😁🤩🤗🤗🤗🤗
Thank you!
My favorite dalek too the only thing I would do is cover up the Phillips screw heads in the eye stalk & plunger
I deliberately added the screws in the eyestalk because I personally like the way they look. The original props also had the bolt and washer holding the plunger in place.
Amazing work! Thank you for sharing.
What a beauty 💖💖
Sigma look Ace. I started to build a Dalek about 10 years ago but didn’t get very far, it’s been sitting in my garage all this time and I keep wanting to complete it but never seem to have the time or money sadly.
Some Dalek builds can take years to complete, and being in that stage where there's still work to do on it is actually very fun!
But what I want is a motorized Dalek to ride around in
They are a lot of fun XD
nameing it Dalek Sigma didnt age well -w-"
At least the brainrot kiddos didn't invade the comments section so...
Incredible work! So talented.
Nice job! However, I don’t think that Daleks would use Philips head screws. They would probably prefer hex capscrews.
Looking at photos of the original props, I'm pretty sure they used flat-head screws to hold the collars on, but I just used what I had to hand.
I wanna make one but I need plans I can do it off looking at the thing
Perfect…but I’ve never been a fan of the mesh.
Get this guy to 100 subscribers!
Awesome stuff! Way to make the *dream come true!*
how much did this cost it must have cost a fortune
This looks so good, hope you can achieve the early Dalek voice with the modulator though!
I try my best!
WELL DONE IN HAVING A GO AND GETTING IT DONE
Where did you get the dome lenses from?
One of my goals in life is to own a full size Daleks. (sigh) One day...
Maybe one day!

Thanks!
Impressive build
Great dalek.
Well done.

Thanks.😁

I want one

Hugely impressed and jealous, wish you were my neighbour, good luck for the future
Nicely done. I've genuinely never watched Dr Who but I've always wanted a full size dalek and tardis.

welll done
Amazing craftsmanship!
Thanks!
10/10
Seriously impressive work . Looks incredible . ❤
I have to say, that is one -beautiful- efficient Dalek design.
Shawcraft Mk2?
Ooh close! Its a Shawcraft MK3.
@@whopropsmodels9710 what is the difference? I have the builders plans and It says Mk2, or were the M2's ,Mk1's with those dishes on their backs?

That looks so good it’s too good to be remotely authentic, but I absolutely love it!
Haha thanks! Im sure after a few years of use it'll look suitably weathered.
I wonder what dalek would be easiest to make for a beginner who haven't worked anything like this before
I’d recommend a classic Dalek as they are slightly more simple shapes, perhaps a Dead Planet dalek?
