Tie Fighter Pilot Chest Box with Dark Side Cookies by chadbaycroft

Last crawled date: 3 years, 1 month ago

This is a remix I made from the Tie Fighter Pilot chest box by Jace1969. I made a removable dark side cookie holder and scaled some cookie cutter designs that were on Thingiverse, so that they fit perfect in the holder. (Everyone knows the Empire has cookies, unlike those Rebel scum). Added that knurled knob on the front.
-The back writing translates to "property of Galactic Empire"
-2 gears should be printed, and attached with 5 min epoxy or whatever adhesive you trust.
The slot in the middle is to fit a Samsung S7 cell phone, as I made this for a friend's costume. Just drop your phone in and you can play the Imperial March as you walk. Or feel free to modify this to allow you to take video with your phone as you walk through comic cons.
I am placing a battery holder in the lid so I have ran a simple channel up the wall to allow the 26awg wires from the LED to the battery/switch to be held in with a bit of hot glue. It
holds good and if you ever have to take the wires out, I find it comes off easy enough too. The LED holes are sized for 5mm - blue and red super bright LED. Blue on left and red on right as per movie screenshots. I will be using 5 min epoxy for that. A bit of hot glue on the top and it will diffuse it perfect.
I never put in a switch hole to activate the two LED because wasn't sure which switch i would be using so going to just drill one wherever I decide. 9V battery will run the 2 LED for a long time, 2 years give or take.
Hope ya enjoy and I will post pictures here when it is done. Cheers from Canada...eh!
