- Here she is! A few things to change eventually, but... I'm still amazed to see this in my driveway, haha. A Dorothy from the movie Twister!
Dorothy II, based loosely on one specific Dorothy. There were 6 to 8 Dorothy's made for the movie, and the way I tell them apart is the weld line on the barrel. This one is based mostly on the one that has the weld line through the D in Dorothy. My 1995 Ram 2500 V10 4x4 and this Dorothy are meant to represent the Ram's first chase after the Jeep is dropped.
If anyone wants to build a Dorothy, no matter the accuracy, please contact me! I'll share anything and everything needed to build one of these. As an autistic individual, I was 5 when I first saw Twister, and it became my hyperfixation. This is 10+ years of research made real. I'm living my childhood dream - and I'd love to help others experience this too.
Here's the features:
As accurate as possible
Lights, sound system, on-board battery
Gauges lining the top of the barrel read battery level
Detachable solar panel inside sensor tray
Mechanical lid opening mechanism
Sound system controls on buttom bus connector box, one button to play the score, one button for the siren, a kill button and a on/off switch
Accurate vintage parts, reproductions where needed
Custom drop in tray that rests on sensor tray, custom tray used for ice and beverages - บันเทิง
I love this so much! Thank you for sharing!!! 🌪️ - SG
One day I'll make my own Dorothy and I'll have my own 90s red Ram truck to go with it! This was really cool to see.
I would pay big money to have a Dorothy!
Great work! I've been wanting to build a replica Dorothy since I first saw the movie when I was about 12. I'm glad you said you wanted to help others with what you learned building this one... I was a fabricator for a while and I still do blueprints/models occasionally, I'd be happy to take your information and start working on a 3D model and fabrication blueprints.
So freaking awesome
Absolutely amazing work on Dorothy 2! Someday I'm looking at building two of them to put in the back of my truck. It will be quite a while yet so hopefully you have the plans available by then! You really did a fantastic job!
I do have most of my research public, I need to update and add new stuff sometime soon. facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.156387362781052&type=3
"....and inside, she holds 100s of these sensors....."
Which go up in the tornado simultaneously
Dorothy is very nice
I would pay a lot of money for this :D
I’m looking to build this exact replica for my soon to be done j10. How can I get in contact.
Hey I’m looking at making one of these to go with my Ram pickup please let me know what kind of drum you used and where I could find one? Any help would be appreciated thanks!!
I'm in awe
Hey man I know you posted this a while back but I'm curious how did you get the Mount for the cb antennas on the bed of ur truck? Plsss let me know I would rlly appreciate it 🙏🏾
How large is the frame in length width and height? Very awesome!
Amazing work!!! What did you use to make the stainless container?? I would love to have one for myself!!
Where or how did you get the decal that shows how she works. I’ve been trying to find one
I'm really big into off-road community and I want to build this for the back of my mud truck. Do you have an idea for the dimensions and stuff building materials stuff like that I really really want to build this for the exact same reason you did as an ice chest /replica
can u send me the size to the steel canister that u got? and if possible names of the items
This is epic! 😮 How did you find the Muskogee State College logo? That would make a rad t-shirt.
What would the dimensions of her be mostly the yellow frame and the silver drum? I’m look in to making one and I can’t find a good scale online or the movie since none of the actors stand straight up or on level ground in the movie, it would be amazing if you could tell me. Thank you for you time
How did you get the siren?
Did you have a spec sheet to work from?
Yep! If you look up 'The Paxtonmobile' on FB, you'll find my build page/behind the scenes collection. I keep my decade-long research for Dorothy there in an album.
@@Mel.Roswellthank you!
Dorothy never had the meters on her
She did! If you're talking about the little amp meters along the top of the barrel.
What kind of drum do you use to build Dorothy
How much did this cost? My dream is getting the 1995 beast and want to acquire Dorothy with it.
For how accurate I went... I spent over $30,000.
How much did it cost to build Dorothy alone, excluding the cost of the truck?
All told, about $12,000.
@@Mel.Roswell Thanks, me and a friend are looking forward to making one ourselves.
Now put this in a tornado
take care torando away
