The aim is to have it deep enough that when the 10mm aluminium is nestled in the groove, it's flush with the top of the 20mm bar if you hold it against the side. It should be around 8mm deep, but some experimentation may be needed. Use some scrap to work out what height to set it. The slot for the horizontal aluminium bar is cut according to the plans (thanks again AP,) by locking the mitre saw to a certain height. It doesn't matter how messy it looks (as you can see, mine was far from clean,) as it will be covered by the grill on the final product. Chisel off the top few mm of the wood, until the grill from step two sits flush with the surface of the wood. Once you have it cut, mark off the bottom 70mm. The entire project is built around a piece of 18mm plywood cut to 343mm x 108mm. It's going to go 100% failure in 72 hours. According to The Verge, the company is only going to produce 2001 models in keeping with the year the novel is set in and has so far sold around 1700 of them, proving that creepy computers are quite popular in people’s homes.I've just picked up a fault in the AE35 unit. It’s obviously a little oversized and impractical in actual use, but as a prop, it’s pretty cool.
The company is still manufacturing these devices in China and is planning to ship them out by January 2019. Just look at Darryn’s collection of Batman figurines. It’s a lot of money, but if you’re a huge sci-fi fan, I can think of worse things to waste your money on.

The device will be available in two models, one with just a standalone Bluetooth speaker and red light for $499.00 (R7500) and another which includes the visual command centre that will complete the look of the Hal-9000 for $999.00 (R15000). Its screen also replicates some of the screen outputs from the film.
The company has essentially created a command console that looks like the HAL-9000 – red light included – that essentially acts as both a Bluetooth speaker system and a prop replica with a built-in Alexa system that quotes lines from the movie. Well, this is what one company Master Replicas Group is offering fans as they unveiling their replica of the HAL-9000 to audiences at New York comic-con. The two of your friends that get the reference will love you for it and you will instantly be one notch higher off the bottom of the geek social list. Better yet, imagine owning your very own HAL-9000 and having it in your home. Now imagine getting to really freak people out with a computer that talks exactly like HAL-9000. It’s a computer voice that is as unnerving as it is emotionless and what you would expect a computer to sound like.
#HAL 9000 REPLICA PROP MOVIE#
One of the best parts about the movie though was that deadpan voice of HAL-9000 as the AI computer starts to take over the spaceship and kill off its crew. It was also adapted into one of the most boring sci-fi movies ever made (They were both created concurrently but the point stands), but that’s okay, Kervyn loves it and I will be probably be looking for other writing work by the end of this week for hating the movie. 2001: Space Odyssey is one of the most iconic and thought-provoking sci-fi novels ever written.
