Glue the speaker grill in place.ĭisassemble the arcade button as much as possible and paint the bezel. Glue the two front pieces together and then glue the two back pieces together. Measure, cut and paint the perforated plastic sheets. Print all of the 3D parts and carefully paint them. I wanted a single audio file (HAL's voice) to play when the red arcade button was pushed so I hired someone to help me with an Arduino based circuit that fits inside this model.
#Hal 9000 replica kit series
Custom single stickers are not easy to get so I ordered a 5 x 5 inch window sticker with a series of different sized HAL 9000 logos on it. I ordered perforated plastic canvas for future models. I couldn't print the grill and used an old radio grill for my first attempt. The red arcade button didn't breakdown into paintable parts and needed a lot of taping to prevent overspray. I printed the front faceplate and the box behind it in four different sections. I started with the 45mm red arcade button and worked around it making a 3D model on Sketchup. It took me 4 days to complete assembly once I had all the parts printed and together. I designed, printed and assembled my own model from scratch with a lot of inspiration from other replicas shared online. TUTORIALS.I wanted a replica HAL 9000 but I didn't want to buy a premade one. To order your very own HAL 9000 click the BUY NOW button or email nice tutorial of this kit online. Resistor, shrink tubing, LED (your choice of BLUE or RED), wiring, instructions. Includes on/off switch, 9v battery connector, You can add an electronics package to this for $12.
#Hal 9000 replica kit professional
The body is cast hollow to allow for electronics (LED for the eye, motion sensor/speaker circuitry).ġ.) The faceplate casting (hollow in the rear to allow electronics installationĢ.) Laser cut professional Vinyl Decal (your choice of HAL or SAL) To make hollow cavity castings, I crafted a positive brick that is designed to lay inside the laminated faceplate mold. The following photo shows how the laser cut grid plate was fastened into position.Īlthough the wood was milled fairly smooth and grain free, wanted the faceplate to have REALLY smooth sides, so I lined them in styrene strips and trimmed the corners flush. Once the lamination was solid and the edges routed smooth, we machined the inset hole for the eyepiece: The photo below shows the laser cut acrylic being laminated onto the wood faceplate body. Once that lamination was cured, I trimmed the edges flat with the faceplate. I did this by laminating a few sheets of high density/low grain wood (poplar) but to the measurements of my CAD file. Here's what this looked like directly off my laser cutter: This necessitated vector files for: 1.) The baseplate (etched with the positions of the upper layers) 2.) The gridplate 3.) the decal plate 4.) the lens rings To do this properly I decided to create vectors for each individual height layer.
Once I had a height measurement, all the other pieces were scaled accordingly and drawn out in my CAD software. Check out his INSTRUCTABLE HERE: Īfter analyzing many libraries of frame captures and reference photos of the HAL9000 from 20, I decided on a height scale for the faceplate. David Strine utlized this HAL kit to modify Amazon Alexa. This is an excellent example of how you can customize this kit. The ENTIRE unit is 4.28" wide and 12" tall. The speaker box housing area is 3.78" wide (96 mm), and 2.2" (56.4 mm) tall. **FOR ANYONE INTERESTED IN MODDING this Hal 9000 With Speakers, a real IR Sensor, thermostat nest controller, here are the specs: The eye lens housing is 3.1" (79.1 mm) diameter. Please allow a minimum of 3-4 weeks for shipment after order. UPDATE: You can choose between these two style decals: **UPDATED 2019 - each HAL kit ships with a laser cut brushed aluminum screen!! Welcome to my HAL9000 webpage! This project started in Feb 2010 and completed in March 2010.
