Full Scale Shawcraft Dalek Dome Model and Negative
By Omeganinjaboy
The dome is based on the Version 3.1 Movie plans (so the eye slot is higher than other classic domes), though the negative and back half files are consistent with other classic domes dimentionally. You could just print two back halves if you do not want a movie dome and cut the eye slot yourself. I would advise you consult the dome dimentions in the Version 3.1 Movie plans and compare them against the dimentions of your own plans if you are building a different classic dome.
This is a 3D printable Dalek dome model that has a curved eye slot rather than a rectangle extruded one making it more accurate to the real thing (It took quite a while to figure out how to make a hole based on a curved measurement in CGI). The front and back halves are provided, but you will have to slice it up if the model is bigger than your printer's build volume. The skinny dome is half an inch (1.27cm) thick and the normal one is one inch (2.54cm) thick. There are lower poly and higher poly (HD) variants of most files. A negative of the dome is also included for you want to use however you wish.

Full Size 3D Printable NSD-like Dalek
By elembivos
Hello all, I hope some of you find this useful, and no one finds it frustrating...
These are the STL files I designed and used to print Duma. You can read all the details here:
I used this project to gain experience both with CAD and 3D printing. Both of which I had no experience with before starting. I started at the top and worked my way down, and you can see how my skills developed a bit as progress was made. There are places where things don't quite match the plans, most notably the NSD dome grooves are missing. I didn't have the skills at the time I did the dome to make that happen. One other thing to note, that you might not notice is the eye stalk is slightly shorter than the plans. This was done intentionally to fit a lamp rod down the center to reinforce it. Straight up 3D printed stalk was not strong enough by itself. Likewise the gun and plunger have lamp rods through them too, but I used long enough rods that they could be trimmed to fit. I took artistic license here and there, for the most part it follows the plans.
If you are thinking of attempting this project you need to know a few things. First, again, I had little to no CAD or 3D printing experience before starting this project. There are probably better models in the downloads section for various parts, but I drew them up myself anyway in an effort to gain experience. So this is the WHOLE thing, designed to fit together. If you substitute someone else's dome, or eye, or whatever, don't expect it to fit without some additional work on your part. Even if you stick strictly to these STL files, not everything is perfect. Read through Duma's diary 5 or 6 times to see where I struggled, and needed to make modifications post print, to make it all work. I think the only file in the bundle that isn't what I used is the Cowl, and there all I did was remove the name from the ID indent, because you probably don't want your Dalek to be named Duma. That said, this project took over 2 years, spanning 2 computers. I did my best to assemble the STL files into one place before uploading them, but be prepared for me to have made a mistake and included one or two files that don't work, or there may be something missing. If someone comes across this, I should be reachable through the forum to figure it out. Second, for the neck and dome you'll need a variety of M3 nuts and bolts. There are many, and I don't recall all the sizes, so have a variety on hand. The skirt and base are held together with a variety of M5 nuts and bolts. Currently the neck is glued and screwed, everything else is just screwed. Eventually it will be glued, but for the moment it seems to hold together pretty well with just nuts and bolts. In the beginning I was printing the parts with threads in the part. Which works ok, but isn't super robust. Eventually I learned how to embed nuts in the parts, so the lower parts don't have that. Third, the dome was designed with animatronics in mind. So there are motor mounts for the eye, and rotation. The motors are described in the build diary, but if you can't get hold of the same part, you will likely need to make some significant modifications. I haven't included anything for motorization in the shoulder or base, so it is currently a static prop. Eventually I'll work out those details. If you get to it before me I'd be happy to bundle your efforts in here. Lastly, I had no CAD or 3D printing experience when I started, so don't judge me 😉.
P.S. Someday I plan to update the files to include "what I would do if I had it to do over again." But don't hold your breath.

Full Size Movie Dalek Fender (1st or 2nd Films)
By Chris Moliere
FINALLY! This thing took an eternity to split into smaller parts, but it's complete! This can be used for both movies: If you are making a 1st movie Dalek, print all 60 parts, but if you're making a 2nd movie Dalek, print ONLY parts 1-35, and use rubber sheeting for the rest of the fender. This thing will probably take several months or more to print, but it will be worth it! Have fun!

Full size NSD Dome solidworks for 3d printing
By cjorgensenmd
I modeled the NSD dome in solidworks with the intention of breaking it up into parts small enough to 3d print and later on make a fibeglass mold from. The cone near the eye cutout will help when an air valve is bolted onto the fiberglass mold. This air valve will enable easy mold release.

Full Swd for 3d printing
By captianboko
This my take on the swd using a model i scale up and modified to make it possible for a human to fit inside of the model.
There is some problems with the model and this is a work in progress would also recommend to modify it to your hearts to content to make it better or interesting.

Full True Dalek Paradigm Kit
By erichdalek
To begin: that is a lot of files.
This is in 1/10 scale, so scale up as you want.
This was built on tinkercad.com, the file can be found here.
There is the main file, 'Full Dalek' if you want it in one color, and have support material.
The rest is all the individual parts, broken up so that they can be printed in their different colors, without support material or as groups of the same color.
There are two zipped folders, one "all parts"-- everything individually, and "Everything Sorted By Color" which is the groups of the same color in about a 20x10 cm box.
The last file is one that I am using as a hot glue mold to make the domelights.
If there are any questions or requests or whatever, feel free to contact me.
Disclaimer:
I am not amazing at modeling, nor is Tinkercad the best program ever for this kind of thing (as user KiwiMrDee stated, it is "designed for kids so detail and rendering options are limited") and so this is not exactly perfect (especially my angles in the full dalek, so print the pieces and assemble it yourself!) and I won't take offense at greater creators then me offering criticisms (hot glue mold, really?).

Gazing Globe Drill Box
By trickster
This is a jig I made to drill a pilot hole in a 10cm gazing globe. The globes I used were Rome brand purchased thru Amazon. Each had a single hole already drilled. This jig allowed me to drill a matching hole directly opposite.
The base has leaves which can be clamped to the drill press table. It also has a peg which fits the existing hole in the globe. I clamped down the base, fitted the globe to the pin in the base, pushed the cylinder down over it and then the lid. The lid has a center hole.
There's also test cylinder file which is only 5mm tall. If you want to use this jig I suggest you first print the test cylinder and make sure it is the right size for your globe. It should fit very snugly.

Genesis Dome Lenses
By Firebiro
This is a much sought after model of the Dome lenses for the 70's Day of the Daleks - Genesis of the Daleks Wipac lenses, intended to be printed at 100% to have the 69.9mm diameter. You can download the model and remove one instance to print one at a time, I have checked this model on Shapeways and it appears to pass all their tests, n.b. if using shapeways use the Print it anyway option

Genesis Tapered Eyestalk
By Ferrain
Genesis Eyestalk TaperDec2
As above with 1cm insert into the next revision of the pivot, this insert should now be a solid piece compared to the previous version (should it shear away as per V1 it should fit back in & be pulled into place by the threaded rod as its tightened).
Genesis Eyestalk TaperDec3
As above .5cm insert into the first printed eye stalk spacer, this insert is smaller than originally planned as to fit on the printer bed of the Makerbot Replicator 2.
The pivot should not be printed first in the event that the pivot insert shears & can't be refitted.
ID of the threaded rod channel is approximately 1.62cm & this is to accommodate the 1.6cm diameter (approx) couplers for the 1.26mm threaded rod as used in my eye stalk design.
Print time on standard MB Replicator 2 should take about 2.5 hours & 40g (0.07IIbs).
Parts currently under (re) development to have a complete stalk assembly (add eye of your choice).
Pivot mounting.
Pivot with threaded rod channel or with threaded rod channel & insert guide hole.
1.2" diameter .75" long disc spacers with threaded rod channel & insert guide hole.

Goon X Eye - As Per PDF Plans.
By ansonjames
Supports required front/back of the eye, remove supports on these parts and insert the ring which aligns both parts.
If the part layout is too big for your print bed just "select all" and "ungroup" in Microsoft 3D builder.
Parts are oriented for best printing speed and quality - 20% infill, 3 perimeters recommended.
11MM diameter hole is for the eye stalk/pivot files which are located here;
The finished prints are kept together with an M10 threaded bar and nuts.

Imperial Dalek : Dome Lights
By Necrosis
This is a download for the Imperial Dalek dome lights. The files are in .stl format making them easy to 3D print or to use as digital references/models. These parts are 1:1 scale and match the most recent revision of the Imperial Dalek plans making it plug and play to print or easy to scale to your Daleks needs. I personally 3D printed these units to create molds so that I can cast the parts. I cut the center piece from acrylic using the print as a template. However, the parts look great as 3D prints with some filler and primer and you can print the center disc from a transparent filament with out any hassle; SLA resin printers also work great for this kind of part. Recommend printing these parts slow and precise at 15% infill for best results.
(Would love to see any print results from anyone who chooses to share on this thread)
Details:
Scale - 1:1 (In compliance with Imperial Dalek Plans Version 3.5)
Parts included in this download - VHE-275 * Acrylic Disc * VT-250
NOTE: For ease of assembly, parts VT-250 and Acrylic Disc have 6.5mm holes through them, this allows a 1/4" bolt or 6.35mm bolt to go through and connect them; there are two recessed locations on part VHE-275 (Elliptical head) where the hex/head of the bolt can be mounted in place. This is not visible from the outside and ensure perfect placement of the parts and allows easier installation on the dome. All parts also have a 26mm hole in the center to allow the placement of a small bulb.
I will keep these files up to date and if you have any suggestions or find any errors please let me know so that I may update the parts.

So It Was a Simple Design and I was Bored last Night as I couldn't sleep after I was brainstorming how I would be My Mk1. So Here the Imperial Daleks And Emperor Dome Lights. It's In separate pieces, Hollow, and Able to fit on a minimal 233mm by 233mm print space. The Gray Disc(As it Look in the Pictures above) are really clear Perspex disc, so you could use that instead of what Is in the print. IF YOU USE THE GRAY DISC THEN PRINT USING A TRANSLUCENT OR CLEAR FILAMENT!The Hole In the Gray Disc is 20mm by 20mm hole, just as a middle point to help you. You can make it larger for the light.

Imperial Dalek 5 inch Model Kit
By audrey2
To make up for the fact that there is no sufficiently accurate 5 inch model Imperial Dalek, here is a small 3D printable model kit to create your own.
This was modelled in Blender, with FDM style 3D printing in mind (although if anyone makes a resin one, please let me know, I'd love to see how it turns out), and the parts have a tolerance of around 0.15mm to fit together.
Only the plunger and the shoulders require printing with support material, and I have provided a visual instruction booklet showing the basics of how to assemble the model.

Imperial Dalek Dome lights - STL
By Aaron J Climas
After the plans change on the domes/ dishes I went away and redesigned my 3D model. And although the pictures here are of the old dishes, I have
since printed out the new sized ones. They seemed to work well, the pipe I believe was around 12 months, and the dome about 25. Much faster times
due to the much smaller objects.
OLD INFORMATION ON PREVIOUS VERSION.
I needed a set of Imperial dome lights. The EMA parts looked expensive, so I 3D modelled and printed out a set myself.
When I imported them the models came in factor of 10 too small. However in STL viewer and Maya they seemed the correct size. So may have been an issue
with the printer software.
The pipe took me 18 minutes to print, and the dome 43 minutes. So just on two hours for the full set.
I thought I would share. If you have issues, give me a shout and I will repair the files.

Imperial Dalek Eyeball
By Aaron J Climas
Hey guys.
This is a STL file of the Imperial Dalek eyeball. It's in two halves that need to be printed and glued together.
It is a pair of STL files. They are much larger than normal as I have found issues with low resolution geometry making the prints come out with hard edges. If this is too much geometry I will remodel and upload again.
The front of the eye isn't as deep as the original prop, because it makes adding the front much harder! However I could do that variation if someone was keen.
The front of the eyeball itself is slightly rounded off as per the original, rather than being dead flat.
The rear of the ball has a nice flat section for tube to sit flush against, as well as a pilot hole included for drilling a central hole.
I haven't printed this file yet, but intend to tomorrow!
EDIT. The rear of the eyeball has a hole in he model. I have fixed the model, but not uploaded yet. This will be fixed soon.
EDIT- The previous upload didn't include the front of the eye. I only just saw a message about it then. (4th March 2016.)

Imperial Dalek Eyediscs
By Aaron J Climas
A relatively quick version of the Imperial Dalek eye discs. They are based on (A forum members- someone please help!) measurements from a few years ago. I haven't had a chance to test print these.
Included are all four discs as separate files as well as a combined download of all four. The discs are about 11mm or so apart, and have a 25/26 mm hole partially extruded on both sides of each disc, but not
the whole way through so you have a little choice of construction.
Please give me a shout if you have any issues with them.

Imperial Dalek Plunger v002
By Aaron J Climas
Thanks to Shane for helping me out with dimensions on this! Dalek Candi has an Imperial plunger that has original heritage. He was kind enough to measure up his plunger for me and I have build a 3D model of it based on those dimensions.
To my eyes, the front feels too big, however I haven't seen an original in hand, or printed this one yet. So I can't judge.
The rear section I have deliberate made quite soft, as the original casts are, and I feel doing a perfect computer set of straight angles wouldn't give the right feeling to the whole thing. There are only 120 verts around the circumference, I could potentially increase that if anyone wanted to make a more detailed print than that. Most people, I imagine will be using relatively low end printers that will require cleanup anyway, so I don't think it should be a problem.
Potentially if required I could split it to a front and back, so the front dish/ surround could be printed, then the rear 'tower' printed and then joined. In my experience prints often warp somewhere and joining like that often ends up with parts that don't join well.
It was created in Autodesk Maya, and the front ring should be about 120mm to give sense of overall scale. Please give me a shout and show images if you print it, as I would love to see the results.
All the best,
Aaron

Imperial Dalek: Eye Stalk
By Necrosis
This is a download for the Imperial Dalek eye stalk. The files are in .stl format making them easy to 3D print or to use as digital references/models. These parts are 1:1 scale and match the most recent revision of the Imperial Dalek plans making it plug and play to print or easy to scale to your Daleks needs. I personally 3D printed these units to create a mold that allows me to cast the part with perfect detail. You can achieve the center reflective disc by printing the part and then covering it with a reflective film as shown in the screenshots above. However, I prefer the none reflective disc on my personal Dalek build. The parts look great as 3D prints alone with some filler and primer and detail work. Recommend printing these parts slow and precise at 15% infill for best results.
(Would love to see any print results from anyone who chooses to share on this thread)
Details:
Scale - 1:1 (In compliance with Imperial Dalek Plans Version 3.5)
Parts included in this download - Eye Stalk * Eye Piece * Reflector * 4 Stalk Discs * Eye Pivot
NOTE: For ease of assembly, parts have a 0.5mm to 1mm tolerance. The eye Pivot has a 12mm (1/2") hole in the center for a bolt and a larger hole on the backside that can be used to attach a control rod for the eye stalk.
I will keep these files up to date and if you have any suggestions or find any errors please let me know so that I may update the parts.

This part is 1:1 scale and match the most recent revision of the Imperial Dalek plans making it plug and play to print or easy to scale to your Daleks needs. I personally 3D printed these units to create a mold that allows me to cast the part with perfect detail, SLA printers work great to get to that finished look quicker. As noted in the plans; the original props where easily damaged during filming do to the ball joint openings being thin, I would suggest slightly flexible resin for casting or 25% infill for plastic printing to give greater resistance to stress. The parts look great as 3D prints alone with some filler and primer and detail work. The surround piece has a 101mm recess in it to allow a 100mm ball joint to stick out as they do in the show. Included in the download is another file that is the same but without the recess for those that don't want it. Recommend printing these parts slow and precise at 15% or 25% infill for best results.

I'm in my late 60's. I live in Australia and have always enjoyed Doctor Who from the very first episode aired here around 1965 when I was 9 years old. Thought how amazing it would be to have a Dalek but had no idea how or where to even begin UNTIL I came across this site. Thanks for giving me the opportunity to at least be able to start on a Dalek build and will detail my progress as it goes along.

I'm in my 50s and have since I was a boy watching Dr Who in the 70s always dreamed of making a Dalek for fun, now I have the time and resources, along with your forum's help it's time to live that dream.
I have watched some of the members videos, and I am very impressed with what I have seen.
Long live the Who verse.
I will document my progress and share any innovations I make

Moflash lenses appear to be slightly difficult these days. the best bet in my opinion is 3D printing them. there are many accurate models here that can be printed on any FDM printer you can find. there is a chance that you can find the lenses online to buy, but those sites can be slightly sketchy. depending on the filament you buy and the printer you have/find, they can be produced fairly accurately. filament can come as cheap as 17 dollars, but do keep in mind that they can some -
By Chris R · Posted
Thanks for uploading these files. Printed really nicely with the odds and sods of filament I had around and very pleased with it, haven't done any tidying up or painting but it looks great as-is.
