TARDIS Deluxe Kit

Designed right from the BBC blueprints, my TARDIS kit is meant to print flat to avoid the cracking problems I have experienced with other versions.

Iris Box v3

I did a major overhaul on the iris box and printed 100+ for Maker Faire NYC 2013.

Sean Charlesworth - 3D Modeling & Printing Reel

3D DEISGN & PRINTING REEL

These reels are woefully outdated! Nowadays I do more fabrication.

I am a hard surface 3D modeler and printer with a specialty in designing assemblies. For the last 10 years, I have also been the Head Repair Technician for NYU Film & TV - responsible for the repair, maintenance and processing of all existing and new production equipment.  I use this hands-on knowledge and sensibility, to design working 3D printed assemblies, combined with actual hardware where appropriate.

Maker Faire NYC 2013

Charlesworth Dynamics will be at the New York Maker Faire!  We will have our Replicator 2X on hand and be happy to answer any 3D printing questions.  We will also have our iris boxes, TARDIS kits and other goodies for sale. 

Look for Charlesworth Dynamics in the 3D Printer Village exhibit #11803. Click banner for info and tickets.

To buy a TARDIS kit or iris box check out our Etsy Store.

If you have your own 3D printer, download files for the TARDIS and irisbox on my Thingiverse page.

The Shop - Kid Tested, Adam Approved

This is the NYU Film & TV Repair Shop and it's probably been my biggest project ever.   It's a never ending task to keep it efficient, organized and stocked and I love it. I'm lucky to have access to a great shop in the middle of NYC and would be a sad, sad man if I didn't.  As the one and only Repair Tech at NYU Film & TV I am responsible for keeping over 50 film cameras, 300 digital cameras, audio gear and a ton of light and grip equipment up and running.

A Red Letter Day - Adam Savage visits the shop.

 And yes, Adam Savage stopped by.  I won his Inventern competition and helped to finish his Hellboy Mecha-Hand.

Camera Repair - ARRI S

I was the Head Repair Tech for NYU Film & TV for almost 12 years and during that time, one of my biggest jobs was keeping over 90 ARRI S 16mm cameras running.  Up until Summer 2012 the ARRI S was the workhorse of the introductory film class but NYU finally made the transition to digital and while they still shoot a lot of film, the amount of digital projects continues to grow and the ARRI S has been retired.

I may have moved on from NYU but I inherited a massive amount of new and used ARRI S parts and still do camera repair when I have time. Contact me if you are looking for any parts or need some work done.

Analog Projects

The Charlesworth Dynamics site was originally setup to cover the Octopod but has since grown to cover a lot of my other projects as well.  Before I delved into the digital realm, I had a long history of building and fixing things in the real world and I wanted to showcase some of my hands-on 'analog' projects. I felt that this was especially important since I want to continue combining 3D modeling and printing with real-world hardware and hands-on.
