Hi,
Anyone here built a Dalek?? I've joined a fabulous forum called Project Dalek and they have so much resources, even for free that this looks like
this is my next project 
hoping to put my 3d printers to good use with it too. Wanting to build one of the bronze modern ones...
Nope not built one, but there is a Guinness World Record "class" for fastest Dalek - a bit of immortality for you if you get your name
in!

Not done it myself, but there's a guy on FB built one recently, based on a shortened mobility scooter, if you can find him on FB he might be able
to add some tips.

home-grown machinery!
