Refurb - Repair - Remake - Replace
Designer and maker of parts for your perfect project.
"Imperial" Eyeball Kit designed, developed and 3D printed by Tom's Refurbishments.
Included in each kit are the parts as follows:
1 X 3D printed eyeball front
1 X 3D printed eyeball rear
1 X 3D printed lens template
1 X piece of silver Dc-fix
1 X M8 hexagonal nut
1 X M8 hexagonal Nyloc nut
As the original prop featured an eyeball made as a single, sealed piece, this eyeball kit is designed to be joined at the seam with adhesive and then filled and sanded to create a perfectly smoothed finish. Due to this feature, the eyeball has a hexagonal recess inside the rear eyeball section to hold either of the supplied M8 nuts, along with an 8mm centre hole, so it can simply be threaded onto a finished Eyestalk using an M8 threaded bar as the centre when painted. The back also features a 1mm deep recess in the centre to suit a 1" (25.4mm) diameter tube.
Although the hexagonal nuts supplied are a tight push-fit into the recess in the rear section of the eyeball, it is strongly advised to fix either of the nuts in place with an adhesive to help avoid it from being pushed loose and being forever trapped inside the eyeball.
The supplied template and Dc-fix are for the builder to cut and apply a silver finish to the iris ring of the eye as per the original props.
This is a kit and will need finishing and assembling before painting. These parts will require filling and/or sanding before painting to achieve a smooth finish. What you will receive in this kit is pictured and also itemised above.
Toms refurbishment is one if not the best business that can provide you with recreated "prop" parts to a outstanding degree and would definitely recommend him as his speed in posting and the finish quality of the product is handled with such care. Tom himself is also very kind and encouraging and a pleasure to talk to. Thanks to Tom I have been able to start my dream of having my own personal "army" which would not be possible without parts provided by Tom.

I contacted Tom back in 2019 about making some improvements to my project so that I could take him to events and Comic Cons. Tom saw this as a challenge and found solutions which created a beautiful, reliable machine that works wonderfully and allowed me to attend the Queen's Jubilee Parade without any technical issues. I fully recommend Tom's Refurbishments and I intend to commission my other project with Tom in the near future.
