What do you get when you combine strips of metal, LED lights, wiring and some batteries? Why a Doctor Who-esque crack in the universe of course!

Admittedly, combining these items will not actual result in a tear in the fabric of time and space (you need to add a lemon for that…I’ve said too much) but if you add a little elbow grease and no small amount of swearing you’ll end up with a cool LED ‘Crack in the Universe’ light strip.

Taken from the crack that appeared throughout Series 5 of Doctor Who this replica was designed by Imgur user Poolstick and his roommate – who has been offering advice and his services for anyone interested in making their own via reddit – the crack looks fantastic and as a bonus comes with Prisoner Zero! How cool a roommate would he be? He mimic you and kill you!… maybe check his references first, though.

For further details and a breakdown of how you could make your own, head over to Reddit.
