R9 Dome

A fairly rare dome, thought I'd just mock a couple up, get the basic frames for future releases.

R4-M9 dome may be on it's way....

Full Scale Domes - Higher Rez

You're looking at the mesh for the full scale domes for all you lunatics who want to print a full scale dome in a single print. I've added a couple more following the MightJabba's first test print whi...

Jabba Tray (2 leg mode) done!

OK, all files printed and tested. I've published to the Patreon Early Bird folder... Also there's instructions published in the instruction folder. 

The Three leg version is coming, and I'm goi...

Compared against 1/6th sideshow version.

Fusion design video 2. Domes, domes!

A second video, in this one I cover a couple of other tools and show three basic dome designs ending with approaching the R4 basic dome shape, one of the more complex basic dome shapes.

This v...

First version of the Jabba tray printed!

Design and printed. Build and print is nice (and easy). This is an accurate 2 leg version however the accuracy means the dome can’t rotate fully as the holoprojectors will hit the arms and it’s a ...

First fusion vid

Published the first YouTube clip for our dedicated Patreons, showing a basic build and cut of a rough R5 droid shape to get the basics of fusion 360. Mike

First Fusion Video!!

So, ILM it isn't and Harrison Ford I'm not, however here's the first test (draft, rough.. choose your words) video for Fusion 360 for my dedicated supporters!! A step through creating this R5 "thing" ...

Fusion design videos

Ok, I’ve started to put together some (very rough) and instruction videos for our dedicated Patreons ($5 upwards) as an additional thank you. I’ll do an intro to Fusion (making and printing a smal...

R2 Tray n stuff

The R2 Jedi Tray is virtually finished for the two leg mode. Gotta do the three leg arms but that isn’t a big job. Files are in the wip folder (v2) if you want to play. I’ll publish the files and ...

The forum

Hi all, quick reminder if you’ve not seen it to join the 3dprinteddroid forum, Larry kindly set this up for discussion and support for all our builds. Obviously I’ll keep you updated on news and b...

What’s next? Wadda ya want.

I’m going to continue with all the modules and developments but was wondering on everyone’s thought about introducing a practical start to designing stuff. I use Fusion not in the perfect CAD way...

Optional Charge Port - Fixed and Retro parts available

OK, firstly apologies, I released the Charge port a little too early before I'd fully printed all the parts. Big thanks to Wayne for pointing it out, basically there's a magnet holder in the recess to...

**Opening Charge port changes**

Apologies, a modification will be needed on the opening charge port. The magnet holder needs recessing in the frame, I released the files before I test printed the door. Hold fire if you’ve not prin...

Fusion 360 share for opening panel

Hi all, I've shared the design for the opening panel using the original Fusion 360 design. The link is http://a360.co/2CzBPk1 and the pas...

Opening Charge Port - Option for new builds.

I've added a folder in the main body with "mods & upgrades" in. I've added an opening charge port in this, it replaces MB-ring2-1 and MB-ring2-2. Obviously you can't retro fit and it would be extr...

Tray is looking good

So a few revisions in, a few designs I wasn’t happy with and I think we’ve reached a tray that’s right. 3 top pieces, 2 bottom pieces. All modelled hollow for faster printing and less filament. ...

A little comparison :-)

The Tray is revised!!

Hi, after quite a bit of research and some great reference from the builders club I'm revising the tray design for accuracy. This is the (hopefully) final design for the tray. One of the common issues...

The drinks get closer and it's nearly Christmas...

The design continues, I've done the main details now, still some work to do but shaping up nicely. Happy printing, Mike.

Something from the bar...

First bit done, the support arms are finished. I'll have to do two to support the 18 degree 3 leg mode but happy with the first design! still loads to do on the bar top so watch this space!

Happy pr...

A little diversion..

Just adding a little fun accessory...

Externally complete and functional

R2 version two is fully assembled, working and actually delighted!! Couple of minor improvements, the 12v motors work but a a tiny bit underpowered. I suspect my battery isn’t great and I’m goin...

Magnetic printed hoses work!

Not glued (or put magnets in) but this really works :-)

Nearly there on the hoses

3d printed hoses work well! There I’ve said it. Basically the hoses are printed in Ninjaflex. They have a solid ABS core which holds the shape (slides in). The knurled screws hold via a magnetic lat...
