Scratchbuilt Star Trek McCoy's Medikit Hypo by Kev D


Hi,

I'm going to have a go at making McCoy's medikit from proper Star Trek. So far, I've made the spray hypo. Not easy as I lack a lathe and the skills to use one!


One part down, 4 to go.

Take care,

Kevin D

    Thanks. I see what you mean about the similarity (Star Trek was there first!). In the original prop, you could change the vial at the bottom. There were various different coloured liquids.

    I've seen that finger guard before and even used it at some time in my life. I think it may have been a steel sprung pickle grabber in the Seventies! https://www.amazon.co.uk/KitchenCraft-Vintage-Style-Telescopic-Pickle-Fork/dp/B0001IWUSQ

      A ha, I got a utensil with my pizza in ASK today, a pizza slicer. I knew I'd seen that hand guard before Kev. It was on my circular slicer!

    There is much debate over what they used for that prop. Best guess is, oddly, a chiropractor tool!
