Here's the list of parts you'll need to replicate the Elevator TARDIS as seen on SparkFun Live. Check out the preview video here, and the live show here.

You will also need [soldering tools](https://www.sparkfun.com/products/11807 (iron, solder), wire cutters and strippers, needle-nose pliers, etc.

Important note about speakers:

You will also need one or two speakers to complete this project. Our speaker supplier disappeared on us, so we're currently out of stock of large speakers (sorry about that!). You can use our 0.5W speakers but they are not very loud. Fortunately larger speakers are not hard to find; look in thrift stores for old computer speakers that you can take apart. The LilyPad MP3 Player isn't picky, and we've found that the larger the speaker, the better it will sound (don't worry about the wattage). Another option is the Large Surface Transducer, which is a bit more expensive, but can create very interesting sounds by effectively turning other objects into a speaker.
