About This File
The Mk3 Dalek design was originally covered in the 'Shawcraft Mk1, 2 &3' plans booklet (now obsolete).
The plans have now been split into three separate booklets for the Mk1, Mk2 and Mk3 Daleks. This download is the booklet for the Mk3 version.
This split helps to present the variations in a more detailed and logical manner. A great deal of new information has come to light over the last few years, some of it measured directly from original props, some derived by painstaking use of CG modelling and some coming from rare high resolution images. Until now, much of this new data has remained unpublished or has only been available scattered across numerous discussions on the Project Dalek Forum. All this information has been gathered together for the first time and used to create this new set of plans, which represent a significant advance in classic Dalek accuracy.
If you intend to use these plans to build a Dalek, please post a Build Diary of your progress on the Forum.
These plans are also available to buy as a full colour printed booklet. Click here for details.
