Quantum Leap Handlink

This is a project that has been a long time in the making, but most recently got a kick in the pants after RASCO Motion Pictures contacted us about doing this piece for a fan film they were creating. A fan film basically just that, a film that a fan does to compliment an existing film or tv show. In this case RASCO was creating from scratch, a new episode of Quantum Leap. This episode, called "A Leap to Di For" involved trying to save the life of Princess Diana. Oh Boy!

For this project we first had Dane, the king of all CNC cut us up about 75 plastic parts which all had to be assembled very precisely. Imagine a jigsaw puzzle with absolutely no tolerance for wiggle room and if you get off even the slightest bit you have to file down the rest of the pieces.

That is what we have here!



We ended up building a couple of these, and I'm quite happy how they turned out. The electronics are a modification of the exact same circuit that the show used in the 90's. The mods were simply because the exact same LED's no longer exist and to 99% of the world would never know the difference. The finished product took probably 12 hours from start to finish, not horrible for a one off piece.

Enjoy!
