A long time ago... Black Hole Scratchbuild

[adamata]

Wow! This was my contest entry for a "build a prop for under $20" contest held way, way back.

I designed and built the whole thing for about $12

Here is the website tutorial, with full plans, pics, etc.

OH, and BTW, I won the contest

Sorry for being a little late to the party. The Disney Archives has two Cygnus over/under blasters on display in its main office on the Disney lot. A display case in the hallway of the old animation building has one of the other Palomino-style pistols Holland carries at the beginning of the film.

Sorry for the dark pics, but, you know..... opening the case, getting a ruler out of your bag, and using a flash is against the rules. :unsure I tried to brighten them up in Photoshop.

PS - You realize that the effort you are putting into your replica far exceeds any effort that Disney put into making the originals, right?

I was waiting to see if you would post the tutorial up. Great to see you did...

I've wanted to have one of these for a very long time. And now I don't have any reason not to build myself one.
