Model Description
3D model of mrbaddeley
The models were repaired and checked for printability.

A fully printed R2D2 body based on the fabulous work published by James Bruton...Show more (check him out on Youtube) but heavily modified for scale / skins along with changes to fit the Dome I designed. This is not a certified build model (not compatible or interchangeable with the official builder spec) as I've designed for complete 3D printing, although I have used reference dimensions to create as accurate as possible. A huge printing job, which I'll update as I print. All parts printed in ABS on a Makerbot (parts cut for the Makerbot build plate. Modified Shoulder Frames based on James Bruton issue with too much flex. I've included a 15mm 36 degree hole for further support rather than the James bodge shoulder which limits the skins being fully fitted. Added Head Turn Gear (driver) and Head Turn Idler (for the opposite side to hold the Lazy Susan Ring in) designed for 2 6mm bearings, 6mm Bolt and Nut with a washer. Video of assembled droid! First full test of self powered Bluetooth controlled 2-3-2 and dome movement for my 3d printed Artoo! Tuned the legs / tension and really happy with it! next is the foot motors! I've now finished a complete revision of all the models, version 2
