The "Sci-Fi Artifacts" pages.

Here's more of my collection of StarTrek artifacts, things you can make yourself, or that can be found for sale elsewhere...

< The basis for an ENTERPRISE computer station

This is the late 1990's NEC LCD1530V 15" Flat Screen Monitor, 1024x768 - 60Hz VGA Monitor... which is no longer manufactured.

This specific model was used in the production of StarTrek "Enterprise" as a smaller monitor / computer work station throughout the Enterprise set. Captain Archer had one in his quarters, as did Sub-Commander T-Pol, and various places through the ship.

They can still be had through e-bay and occasional lot sales of store used property closeouts. They were widely used by kiosk stations in electronics stores, for example.

Below... My home made versions of the same thing.

Left: In this image is the half finished monitor running the background screen I created with both Windows "Paint" and Adobe PhotoShop.

The right image is the finished piece.

I got it fairly close, eh!?

I created my own "Romulan Tal-Shiar" Military Harness. It is an old heavy black rubber floor mat ["Drideck" - made in Florida] cut into strips and then zip-tied together, with grey vinyl 'Naugahide' strips woven through the spaces. I got the Romulan "eagles" from an enthusiast in Alaska (off of e-bay) awhile back. They had stiff coat-hanger wire molded into them for mounting. Several hours of cutting the floormat zip-tying them together, weaving the strips through the floormat, and it's done.

I made these Klingon style handcuffs from hard wood, added the metal hoop, hinges, screws and a magnet closure, and painted it up. It's an exact duplicate of the screen used one. I had in my hands long enough to do a CAD drawing of it. (click on the image below for the CAD drawing) It's deceptively easy to make.
