Description
This is my take on the classic Doctor Who prop, the sonic screwdriver.I machined it from a solid brass cylinder and carved the handle from an octagonal block of walnut. The only parts which were not made from scratch are the screws, knobs, and the threaded rod which runs through the middle of the handle.
Tools used: metal lathe, milling machine, files, taps, wood lathe, chisels, sandpaper, steel wool.

Just stumbled upon this, and it is freaking awesome! Tom Baker was my Doctor growing up. Looking forward to going through your gallery. (Steampunk rules!)

For some reason, I can imagine the 8th Doctor using this. Again, I don't know why... :I
I love the look of it, though.

Strange. My first thought when I saw it was: "This would be Eight's Screwdriver."
