This is a simple base plate for the Tardis created by 23Maple (which was an awesome design).
I sized it to print for the original size of 23Maple's design. So if you made that bigger or smaller you need to do the same with this.
I made a channel through the back that comes out the top middle of the base plate. This is for running a pair of wires through for your light. I used a strip of 5630 12V LED's and cut off a section for this. You can use the adhesive on the strip to lock it down to the base, or hot glue, etc. I used a simple 12V wall wart and a Servalite single pole white light switch I got at Lowes for $3.
I ran ground straight through the pass thru part of the switch and cut the +12V line and soldered it to the two ends of the switch. So when you turn the dial on the switch the Tardis light turns off and on.
I designed the base to be a teeny bit loose around the tardis, so it lifts off easy. My goal was to glue down the tardis to it, once the tardis and base have been printed.
