Warp Command Center

Here is the loose sketch of my next mod:

The top will have motors that will make the orbs on top and the sides go up and down.

I'll prolly put somelittle workers in the top behind the plexi.

Here is the center:

And the bottom. I think I may put something over the drive I dunno yet.

I have the case im gonna use. Now I'm gonna practice with some bondo and some other materials, aluminum and figure out whats gonna work best to make this thing come alive. I'm preddy good with motors its the "slide guides" or whatever for the warp orbs that
are going to give me trouble.

Warp orb= "the things inside the super mario tubes and on the top" :D

Im going to finish up my last mod Saturn Magnetosphere and start work on this one this soon.

Hey that looks pretty cool! I'm not sure if I can make heads or tails of it just yet, but if it looks cool and I don't even know what I am looking at? It must be cool. lol

What are the dimensions of this thing going to be? (width, height?). Hmm, I can make most of it out, but I'm not exactly sure where you plan to put the cd drive? Is it two in the sides or one in the middle? It looks like in your first pic you have them in the sides, where as in the last pick you have one in the middle with some switches on the sides. Which btw, looks very cool.

lol you know, this almost looks like The Shepard's Gate (I think thats what its called) from WOW: Burning Crusade. But yours is much more technologically advanced I would say. :p

+rep for clear, detailed drawings with readable explanations. Now if only we could get a Sketchup video of it rotating, but that would probably be asking too much. ;)

Switches on the sides, and the Drives in the center of the bottom. Case window in the center. will look similar on the backside. I will do the top first i'll make it up like a mantle to sit on top. Complete with control panels and little people to run the warp drive :D

I'm going to put one of these in the bottom behind plexi, where it says lightning tube in the above illustration:
