Make a Cardboard TARDIS!

Ok, guys! Here are some cool links to how to make a mini model TARDIS. I don't do much with balsa wood and wanted this project to be cheap so I looked up how to make it out of cardboard. The result was this website.

It shows how to make it and the pdf of the plans are here:

This is so much fun and I did not have to buy anything for this project. I did not add noise or lights to mine, but I painted it a darker blue and sanded it to scratch up the paint to make it look weathered, and it turned out great! Here it is:
The Picture is a little blurry, but you can see the sanded areas, and the doors don't open, but it still is a great model.
All righty. I will list the materials so you can get them before you go to the site.
*A nice navy blue paint
*A sharpie (2 of them) or other permanent marker (black and silver)
*A clear straw
*Clear plastic (like the outside of a toy packaging, as this will be for the windows)
*Sand paper
*Printouts of the "Police Public Call Box" sign and the "Pull to Open" sign.
*Scissors
*An Xacto blade and handle
*Glue (this can be Elmer's glue or super glue. I prefer to use super glue)
*Lots and lots of cereal box cardboard (I used a couple DiGiorno pizza boxes)

Have fun! But be very careful handling super glue and Xacto blades as the blades are very sharp and cut very easily and the super glue bonds to skin and eyes instantly! Haha. Really just be careful and read the labels. :)
