Make Your Own Doctor Who Umbrella Part 1 of 5

This is a video I put together to show Doctor Who Fans how they could make their own ? umbrella handle like the one Sylvester McCoy used during his run as the 7th Doctor. You can find 1 inch diameter acrylic rods online lke on ebay. I recommend getting your walking stick umbrella at http://www.raindropsto.com if you live in the United States.

Sorry about this long delay in responding. I have so many sites with messages it is easy to get lost. The length is 12 1/2 inches.

great work , love the finshed look! Well done! what would you charge for only a finshed handle ?

To be honest, I don't know exactly because I was not keeping track of the cost when I made this one. I can look into it monday and figure the cost once I contact my local plastic maker for a price on their rod.

I can't recommend this video highly enough, even though I had to improvise on a few things detailed, this tutorial was invaluable for helping me make my own umbrella.

Thanks!
