they have also stopped making the color that is used in the film. but they stopped making it with a window but they still make it without a window. I did a lot of research 10 years ago on parts of the flux capacitor, BTTF forums and prop making pages, and discovered back then that the enclosure was a Stahlin J1210HPL but one with a window.

Sd card reader, I picked one up in a pound shop that works well.Īdobe Illustrator (for researching the sizes of things from screen grabs of the film) Stahlin J1210HPL enclosure - the one on the film has a window but Stahlin have not made one with a window for years so you have to buy the one without the window and put your own window in.Ĭlear Acrylic sheet, 250mm x 200mm x 3mm - this is for the window.ģmm thick plastic sheet, grey for the back board.ġ meter of rubber window gasket - I used one with 3mm gap, 5mm gap A and B and 5mm web (see picture)Īccel 3009 yellow spark plug leads with orange ends, they have to be the 3009 to have the bend in them.Ģ0mm clear Acrylic balls, I had a hard time finding these you can get them hereĢmm thick stainless steel wire, I used a coat hanger, you could use music wire.Ģ0cm Jumper Wires, female both ends and some male both endsġ x 5w speaker, no thicker than 30 - 35mm so it will fit under the back board.Ī medium project box, no thicker than 30mmģD printer, not really required but it was easier for me to use this, you could make the bases out of clay or something then cast them in resinĭymo label maker with red tape, 9mm wide. Near enough everything I got on ebay, I love ebay. In this instance its best to replicate the relay as best as possible. Some of the parts are very hard to get hold of such as the Torr Vacuum relays (TRV-1 high voltage relay) if you can find them they sell for serious money, often sold by Back To The Future prop geeks for ridiculous prices.

The idea was to create a flux capacitor that was as close to the film as I could get, and at some point I want to put it in a Delorean. I decided to come back to it with my now improved skills and technology, and this time I have something awesome!! So about 10 years back I decided I wanted to build a flux capacitor, but I got stuck back then because I didn't have the correct skills at that time and I was making a mess of it, so I shelved the project. I watched it at the cinema over and over, I was very lucky that my great uncle was a projectionist so I could just sit in show after show. Since the release of the film back in the 80s I have been obsessed by the film Back To The Future watching the trilogy repeatedly.
