"A few more TARDIS pictures"
 
   I won't keep belaboring you with these unless there are interesting developments, but it occurred to me as I fiddled with graphics tonight that there were a couple of pertinent shots I hadn't taken when it arrived.

Here's a look at the inside:

That hanging wire is the electrical cord that runs to the beacon fitting in the roof. As you see, it goes out the rear window (in the old days, the box was standing in front of an outlet). This shot also gives a good view of how the windows are constructed, and you see the coathooks. The rear end of the bar for coat hangers is juuuust visible at the top of shot.

Here we see the small door in action:

Through it, you can see the jackplate where the phone used to hang. (I know now that the phone's supposed to be on the inside of the door, but I didn't know that at the time. That would have been trickier to implement in any case.)

The sign is only a prototype - it's just a piece of ordinary printer paper, not even stuck on there. It's basically a first attempt at getting the proportions right (which I didn't quite). The fonts aren't right either, though I rather like the way the ones I used look. (They're both variations on Blue Highway by Ray Larabie.)

   Verrrry nice, Chief. I agree with your appraisal of the font/arrangement. Honestly, most folks will be so vapor-locked over you having a friggin' TARDIS in your foyer that they'll never notice slight discrepancies.
