Ok, firstly stack up your pieces, here i have about 4/5 layers of corrugated, and a layer of mount board either side.

picture 2 - Holding the inside cover the out side in PVA Glue, make sure you get it all in the gaps, soak it in the stuff. Then do the same for the inside.

Picture 3 - Glue your scavenged parts to the top and bottom - i found that PVA was strong enough to hold them in place.

Picture 4 - Finally just glue a strip of paper around the outside and inside to neaten it up

Leave to dry over night, or longer if you can wait.

Just to let you all know, this isn't a real time machine, but time travel IS possible; I've read about it before (get the book "Physics of the Impossible"). It just isn't feasible. And you really don't need a "time machine" (at least, not to go back in time).

how? you like press a button and set the time and place? can you go to the past?
Oct 23, 2009. 10:42 PMSkinr says:
Technically, you can only GO to the future, not the past.  This is because time only flows forward, and you're simply removed from the time stream for whatever length of time.  You can LOOK at the past, but you can't change it.

Anyway, mine is way different; I built the prototype in a suitcase, and now it's inside an old laptop.
