Don't forget the pictures of all the available ladies offering their
services that seem to cover every square inch of all the phone kiosks
in London. Is this the real reason Dr. Who spent so much time on the
phone?

Please, if you're going to make a Gilbert Scott phone box, at least
copy it from the real K6 design (or even the older and larger K2)
http://www.englishphoneboxes.com/examples.html
Even the blue police box, or the K3 kiosk design (both easier to make
than a K6) would work, especially if you're a Dr Who fan.

This piece of retail junk is a travesty of everything that worked so
well in the original design. The roof in particular is ugly.

Always wanted to build a TARDIS but never could figure out how to get all
that stuff inside. ;)

Nothing easier - just build it inside out, arrange the furniture, and
push it all through an isolated singularity.
