I have done a cost post before (<a href="http://howibuiltatardis.tumblr.com/post/8428619571/how-much-are-you-estimating-the-final-cost-to-be-cause">here</a>) but it was full of estimates. Since then we’ve needed more paint than we thought and we bought a proper light fitting amongst other such things so we’re now up to the $1250 mark!</p> <p>Edit: I hope I don’t scare you off with the costs, if you want to build one you should!</p>http://howibuiltatardis.tumblr.com/post/9764600729http://howibuiltatardis.tumblr.com/post/9764600729Sun, 04 Sep 2011 08:49:00 +0930<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lqx9goyKPf1ql1e6to1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lqx9goyKPf1ql1e6to2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lqx9goyKPf1ql1e6to3_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p>test fitting for squareness</p>http://howibuiltatardis.tumblr.com/post/9726959803http://howibuiltatardis.tumblr.com/post/9726959803Sat, 03 Sep 2011 10:30:22 +0930tardisdoctor whodavid tennantmatt smith<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lqx9erv6Tt1ql1e6to2_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lqx9erv6Tt1ql1e6to1_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lqx9erv6Tt1ql1e6to3_500.jpg"/><br/> <br/><p>Painting all the bits</p>http://howibuiltatardis.tumblr.com/post/9726912094http://howibuiltatardis.tumblr.com/post/9726912094Sat, 03 Sep 2011 10:29:13 +0930tardisdoctor who<p>just having a busy week.
