Shift838 Posted February 9, 2021 Share Posted February 9, 2021 I was watching a old Star Trek: The Next Generation, specifically the episode called 'A fistful of datas'. at the beginning I noticed a move prop and it has 3 face plates from 5.25 floppy drives. What else is out there I wonder that parts have been used to create something else. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Omega-TI Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 With high definition or even 4K TV's and monster sized screens that kind of stuff will be much harder to get away with from now on. At least they can use their imagination and 3D print something original now days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
