Wow! Ever since pod-mania broke out here on .space I have been thinking
about the 2001 pod, but I would never have been able to catch that really
cool 2001 look and feel. I can hear the music of Also Sprach Zarathustra
already. You would have made Kubrick proud! Great work.

Hi all,

After 3 freelance jobs, one sci-fi convention, and a boatload of stuff • that
just took up my time, I built my pod. Not just any pod, mind you, but a • pod
from 2001: A Space Odyssey.

The arms move, and the back opens up. Also, the rear hatch opens, though • not
accurately...couldn't figure that one out.

Here are some deep links...

More pics can be found by changing the pod number on the above tags. • There are
7 pics total.

and the folder to open when it's moderated:

LMKWYT!

Thanks!

Nice work, especially with the arms.  There's a 2001 pod in this video:

(the = doesn't want to be part of the link, but it should be, so just cut
and paste instead of click)

You should have a look at it and maybe  combine the designs.  The one in the
video is missing the thrusters, but it got some other stuff dead on, I
thought.  Plus, it's funny!  ;)

(...) Thanks! I actually used that pod as a starting point (you might see a couple of similarities right off the bat) and got some other photo references. Joe Meno (22 years ago, 8-Sep-02, to lugnet.space)
