Currently there are a few sites using the videos and pictures from this project , claiming to sell stargates. Those sites are scams! If you buy a stargate from those sites, you will not receive a stargate as seen here.
I have a made a “working” Stargate model from the SG1 TV-show. It spins, the chevrons move and lights up and when a correct address is dialled, the wormhole is established. The wormhole is an infinity mirror effect. The gate is controlled with a DHD. You can check out the video presentation of the Stargate in action here:
Here is a video showing one Stargate dialing another Stargate
I like 3d printing, electronics, programming and making stuff. I also enjoy the Stargate TV-series and decided to make a “working” model of the gate as seen in the TV-show.
This was a challenging and fun project and I had to learn a lot of new stuff. This has been a very time-consuming project. There are a few variations of Stargates used in the show and I chose to make the original one from the SG1 series. There are also several logical “glitches” in the technical workings of the gate as seen in the TV show and it even behaves differently in different episodes. I have made it work as best I can while staying as true as possible to the feeling and essence of the TV-Show.
Features
- A fully interactive working Stargate complete with a DHD (Dial Home Device).
- The Stargate ring spins and places the dialled symbol on the correct chevron as the traveller is inputting the address by using the DHD.
- All 7 chevrons move and lights up when engaged.
- The Stargate can dial any milky-way address used in the show.
- When a correct address is input using the DHD, the wormhole is established.
- The wormhole effect consists of a animated infinity mirror of 122 LED’s.
- Complete with sound effects from the TV Show.
- When the wormhole stays open, selected random audio clips from the TV-Show is played.
- As in the TV-Show the wormhole can stay open for 38 minutes. When the time limit is reached, a random quote from the show where the time limit is mentioned is played and the wormhole disengages.
- The Stargate itself is about 39 cm in diameter.

hello,
I absolutely love it and would be ready to order one … some FB Scams are selling for 60-90$ that what made me search for it and find your post.
Congrats and keep up the great work

This is awesome. Big Stargate fan. Did you have to do anything about copyright?
Any future plans for an Atlantis Stargate? I kinda prefer the more “Ancient” modern style / look / aesthetic of it.
Hello. I truly would like to purchase one. Please contact me and let me know if you can make me one. I truly am extremely serious about this. I won a walk on years ago and I was in Season 7 for one episode. It was the highlight of my life. So I beg of you I would totally like to purchase one. Please let me know. Thank you so much. You have my email please message me there or here. I truly do appreciate your time and this is truly amazing.
Thank you so much

What 3D filament printer is a good, trouble-free printer. I had an ANET A8 and it sucked. I have an Elegoo Mars resin printer and love it. I don’t think I can make the ring or stairs parts. If someone needs resin-printed parts that I can make in exchange for the bigger parts I can’t, I’m up for that. Contact me. I’m in the USA in Florida.
I saw the same ad on Facebook and remembered seeing your 3D Stargate. I figured you made some and wanted to sell them because of such positive feedback. I’m glad I came here to double check things.
This is really cool, but i am just wondering on a variation here… beyond the basic model. Not sure if you are already experimenting with this but I would like to see a variant where two or more stargates are placed around the house and by dialing one you receive a video stream through those light effects from the other room. You can setup a stargate network in your house this way for communication — and maybe in the far future sending food upstairs so your teenager doesn’t have to come to the kitchen for lunch 🙂
in my FB feed there is a link to a website called Amethystly selling based on your videos. Is it feasable they are actually building from your plans, or unlikely based on what you know the construction costs and construction times are for this project?
It’s most definitely a scam! If they actually had stargates for sale like seen in the videos, they would not have to use my videos or pictures. They could use their own.
I think i got scammed. I just paid for one and it states it will be here. I did not know you were the original designer truly
Hi.
I’m really sorry to hear about that. If I understand you correctly, instead of getting shipment information you got a link to https://thestargateproject.com ?
My brother just sent me the same link, I’ve reported it but I doubt anything will be done
You definitely should offer to sell this stargate. It’s so incredible looking!! You would definitely have quite a few sales and people out there won’t be fooled by those other scammer sites using your video and photos!
😱 I want one. Take my $$! Seriously..you should find a way to make this go big. It looks amazing.
There’s one just popped up on Facebook called the Amethystly Store. They’re using your photos and saying it’s on sale, half price!
Yeahhh… there are a lot of pop-up sites claiming to be selling these models. We want to buy one, but haven’t found one yet that isn’t a scam site. DH is posting fraud notices as fast as he can find them, but it’s like playing cosmic whack-a-mole 🙁
There are a couple of “shops” online that are using your imagery and selling your project as a complete product.
God knows what would one receive if ordered from there..

Hi, Arturas Kundrotas
Thanks for reporting the links. They have been popping up like crazy lately. One of the links you reported was new to me. Thank you.
Really like what you have done,are you going to make any to sell??, it is a very cool piece
A lot of people are asking if they can buy a Stargate as seen on this site. More information about this here: Buy a complete Stargate?
If you are feeling creative, you can buy the STL files, Python program, Gerber files etc: Build a Stargate yourself?
Hi.
The Link to this shopping site, is that your Stargate, or is it scam?

Hi Andreas
The link you provided is one of the scam sites.
Thank you very much for this information :)!

Is you???
Hi Fran.
No, the link you typed in your comment is NOT me. It’s a scamming site.
This is sooo cool! would be cool to make it so you can add a voip to the raspberry so when you call another gate you can speak to the person on the other side.
Also reported a few facebook adverts claiming to sell this!
Here is the current FB scam site selling this with your pictures, video and text !
