TOS PADD

thingiverse

My take on the original PADD series is based on measurements I found online, averaged out to get an accurate picture. The holes are designed to fit Osram/Sylvania 662D lamp holders like the ones used in the original prop. You can still find these lamp holders for sale online today. The most common lens colors for this prop are red, white, and orange/amber, listed from left to right. Yes, it requires a large print bed, so I've included a two-piece split version as an alternative. The loose pylon is intended to be glued near the switch and the left light to provide extra stability and reduce flexing when the switch is pressed. I left it loose for you to adjust according to your electronics or screen choice - the original used a Magic Slate toy, after all. As for the back of the prop, you'll need to cut a sheet of material to size. Printing a full sheet of plastic seemed unnecessary, so I recommend using a sheet of 12"x12" ABS instead. Kydex or other hobby plastics work well too, and wood is an option if you prefer. The dimensions for the back are 210mm x 265mm x 4mm, with blocks in the frame providing stability and a place to screw it down securely.
