Hello everyone:) so i have begun building my full size astromech droid! I know that this project is going to take a long time but I feel it will be worth it in the end. My droid will be built from styrene and 3d printed parts. The dome is actually a security mirror but requires a 2" riser made from a floral craft ring and styrene cover.

I was so shocked when I got this envelope in the mail! All of the kids from a class wanted to write me thank you letters for showing off the robots. Makes all the robot building totally worth it:) I hope to be able do the same thing again next year

I love that they all did drawings. Very nice.

as of right now the dome is autonomous but the body is remote control. the droid weighs around 100 lbs and has no sensors. one day soon I hope to get some sensors put in the body.

my senior design project is a robot that follows a person so I will implement that once my senior project is completed
