![]() Most of them sound nice and the speaker is super loud, the panel acting as a resonant chamber. The sounds : I'm very pleased of the audio extraction and cleaning process I did. Still, the black background I did with the 0.2mm and the texture wasn't flat, so I just fixed it with the airbrush clear coat (aquarethane) then 2 thick coats of spray can clear coat, no cracks with this one. The second one, now that I've figured out with the airbrush, nozzle diameter, paint, paint quantities, thinning and cleaning, it's going better. I should stick to fool proof products, like my daughter water colors and colored pencils. One panel went to the bin as I couldn't fix the cracks on the clear coat, tried everything. The big lens is also what will be missing in my SD studios HAL panel, and I don't have a grand or 2 to spare with to purchase a vintage nikkor fish eye. I need to find some magnifiers with the right diameter. The lenses are made out of acrylics globes (michael's) and they really suck. The goal is to put a sound board in there and some more goodies to make it functional.įor $60-ish the kit is ok for a decorative item. ![]() Laser cut parts, I had to drill all the speaker grid (which is flat). They aren't bad, but I think they aren't 1:1 scaled. Then I managed to score 2 cheap HAL kits from a RPF member (gordon gekko). Then I thought it would be awesome to have one at the entrance of the movie room in the basement, to eventually control the access (for real or fake). Then I started thinking about that computer era, I stumbled upon some HAL 9000 replica from space odyssey and I thought it would be cool to add one on the PDP panel. ![]() Talking with a coworker about the PDP-10 (or 11) that is in the IT office, we're thinking about reviving it with leds, lights etc. The console will also be able to get updates from the internet, bringing in new functions to the functional art piece.In the recent trades I did with the lawgiver project, I tried to grab several nice props replica. This model is limited to (of course) 2001 units, and includes the Bluetooth Speaker Edition, power supply, desk stand and a numbered and signed certificate. Say, "Open the pod bay doors," and HAL will definitely still not be able to do that. It will include a replica command console to mount the Bluetooth HAL into, and it will recognize your voice commands and respond with lines from the movie. The higher end model will eventually cost $1,199, but is available for $889 on Indigogo now. You can send any audio from your Bluetooth 4.0 computer, phone or tablet to this standalone HAL-9000. For $599, you'll also receive a desk stand and power supply "early bird" pledges of $419 will get you one from Indiegogo, as well. The first model is a Bluetooth-enabled rectangular HAL-9000 with a red-glowing lens/eye, brushed aluminum faceplate and built-in magnets that can be mounted on any metallic surface. Master Replicas Group has already achieved 358 percent funding on this Indiegogo project, which includes two versions of the iconic device. Sci-fi fans rejoice: You can now talk to your very own replica of the iconic HAL-9000 computer from Stanley Kubrick and Arthur C Clarke's seminal film, 2001: A Space Odyssey.
