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 wil be loading larger and not sideways photos soon.... stress

Markthebotbldr's R2D2 Interactive Hacked!
I bought an R2-D2 interactive that was working and I just didn’t feel like I could hack it because it seemed somewhat...
@robot56... How much of your R2 (mentioned in another thread) did you print out on your 3d printer?... Is there STL files available for this?... looks awesome!
Who did your skins?
@Richard R all of the structural components of the droid are styrene. But the detailed pieces (vents, panels, light bezels, leg details, etc) will be 3d printed
There is a yahoo group where many of the members from astromech.net post files. One of the folders has club approved stl files that you can download!
@Zap Brannigan My skins were cut by A&A on astromech.net i still need to finish cutting all the way through the skins to give the panels more depth though
Aaron
Thanks @Aaron...
I missed the A&A run this time around. I hope they will do another one soon. I have the plans printed out to hand cut the skins but I don't have faith in my ability to cut them as smoothly and cleanly as I'd like.
@Zap Brannigan I would honestly get your skins through A&A... They're way nicer than i expected. I had hand cut skins but did not come out as nice as these. Plus they offer the "extras" with the skins and include most all of the body vents, power couplers, etc. One of the best decisions i have made on my build thus far
My legs are finally all glued and sanded together! luckily thanks to a couple of local builders I was able to pick up some of the larger detail pieces (horseshoes and booster covers). The white detail parts are 3d printed from my home printer so they still need to be primed and sanded for paint.. so next is finishing the detail pieces for new paint and mounting them to the leg frame
Aaron
good news! skin layers are glued together and now waiting on delrin square stock to mount them to the frame!
I have registered my droid for Star Wars Celebration in mid-April so I really need to get working lol 75 build days left
