Everything as of June 7th.

Sure, the "knob" on the end is a little short, and the end's too shiny, but it's a reasonable simulation of the Clippard valve on the movie prop.

The cylinders found on the front and also the cylinders to simulate the Clippard valves on the middle of the wand are ready for painting. The top strip of the simulated Clippard valves are taped so that the upper portion will remain grey, which will mimic the look of the real valves on the props.

The paper pattern is slipped over the tube and it works nicely. Arts-and-craft high five!
