@Teridax12 from the back to the tip of the flashlight is 9and a quater inch .The wood of the gun legth is 7 1/4 , the hand held detachable black phaser (that sitsin the big phaser ) is 4 " 6/16 , the handle is 3 '' 6/16 tall and 3/4th wide , and 1 "1/16 wide .The phaser is 1 3/4 thick at the widest but the back tapers to 1". Bottle cap is 1 1/16 long . pen light is almost 5 3/4, the pen light is 3 1/2 deep, 2 2/16 sticks out .Pen light is 1/2 inch across .
Hey, Thats great! I had heard that the original phasers in the show were all made out of wood, save for a couple that were used for the special effects. And its good to see people having good old fashioned fun, Halloween and Science fiction were always big at our house! Thanx for putting the video on!!!
But this item IS currently available through many retail outlets for around $30 +/-. Art Asylum/Diamond Select has these in toy stores like Toys R Us at this very minute.
This is a fun project and all but you've spent how much time and materials on a commercially made item that can be easily purchased for $15-$30 dollars?
Scrap wood is free , I used an old balsa boat .Hard wood could have been used as well . An experienced wood worker can make this in less than 1 hour .
I think it is better to just buy one lol

This is an excellent example of scratch building on a budget, using mostly materials already available in the house. Well done.

Phasers are not easily found and are not cheap typicly.Over the decades the price has droped .The point was to do it yourself from scratch.

It's always sad to see an old ship decommissioned by being sent to the scrapyard. :( That old boat looked quite nice.
