• After witnessing the continued decrease of involvement in the SpotterNetwork staff in serving SN members with troubleshooting issues recently, I have unilaterally decided to terminate the relationship between SpotterNetwork's support and Stormtrack. I have witnessed multiple users unable to receive support weeks after initiating help threads on the forum. I find this lack of response from SpotterNetwork officials disappointing and a failure to hold up their end of the agreement that was made years ago, before I took over management of this site. In my opinion, having Stormtrack users sit and wait for so long to receive help on SpotterNetwork issues on the Stormtrack forums reflects poorly not only on SpotterNetwork, but on Stormtrack and (by association) me as well. Since the issue has not been satisfactorily addressed, I no longer wish for the Stormtrack forum to be associated with SpotterNetwork.

    I apologize to those who continue to have issues with the service and continue to see their issues left unaddressed. Please understand that the connection between ST and SN was put in place long before I had any say over it. But now that I am the "captain of this ship," it is within my right (nay, duty) to make adjustments as I see necessary. Ending this relationship is such an adjustment.

    For those who continue to need help, I recommend navigating a web browswer to SpotterNetwork's About page, and seeking the individuals listed on that page for all further inquiries about SpotterNetwork.

    From this moment forward, the SpotterNetwork sub-forum has been hidden/deleted and there will be no assurance that any SpotterNetwork issues brought up in any of Stormtrack's other sub-forums will be addressed. Do not rely on Stormtrack for help with SpotterNetwork issues.

    Sincerely, Jeff D.

Trying to ID an instrument - is it real, or fantasy?

Hi all,

About to start my second Twister Ram and Dorothy build - this time, going for Max Accuracy. There's a part that has me stumped - I believe it's based off a sensor on TOTO, but I can't ID it, nor find anything like it. After tons of hunting, I finally figured out the quad plate instrument - but this thing still has me stumped. If it's a real part, it's probably a vintage piece that doesn't exist, or is insanely rare nowadays haha.

I was thinking the same thing, but outdoor fixtures, the kind that line sidewalks, maybe commercial. Looks like they put a rubber gasket in between the two domes. Would also make a great fake flying saucer.
 
Took a TON of digging - but finding research journals from the 80's on TOTO, it's a temp sensor that has a radiation shield/hail shield combo covering it. Gonna have to make it custom, no biggie. I'll look into light fixtures - I figured the prop department either cast them out of resin/plastic, or just hacked something together.
