my brother is actually doing this build and is taking him a very long time but this is like the best thing i have ever seen anyone do with a 3d printer and is part of the reason i purchased a printer.I will get around to doing this build someday.Nice job man.

That is so clean! Very nice printing. PLA+ wow. "I love to solder" That explains a lot! I hate it myself. There are a lot of mods on Thingiverse you can download to enhance things. Stuff like hiding a plug in port in one of the octogons, stuff for the speakers, those 2 buttons on the dome, there is mod to turn them into power and reset buttons, etc. I too went to the MIII drive, I finished my assembly of those a few months ago. Black undercoat: Yup. "Sanding the tops of the pie pieces at 45 to work:" Nice tip. "Split the power" Michael Baddeley mentioned that several times. Good call. Awesome job!

Outstanding! I have been looking for a chassis to put together a gaming computer in. I am a total noob, but given time I think I could figure it out. Do you think the gears and track pads could handle an additional 15-20lbs? If not I could make it just a stationary case. But wow could you imagine that awesome rig with a gaming computer in it ?? Wow.

Impressive stuff, we've started on ours and I'm excited, just frustrated at how slow the printing is going. :) Two questions, where do I find the proper color codes for the painting? I don't want to try to match the blue by eye... and where do you get the Marcduino boards now?
@KevinFlynn1967
@KevinFlynn1967 2 роки тому
Hey Darryl Sorry for the delay in the answer. The color codes for the paint can be found on astromech. I can get the exact ones I used if you like. I ordered the Marcduino boards from oshpark I believe. You can also send the gerber files to a site and have them made. You will have to flash the arduino chips. marcaduino.com has all the info

I got part way through mine and essentially killed my printer. I've got the dome, the body (which is a bit wonky due to poor print quality) and one and a half legs I think. I'm currently trying to build my own printer which has a bigger build area to help with completing the build... but I might end up redoing a lot and I'm even debating learning metal casting and trying to cast some/most/all in aluminium. I also have a plan for making a miniature projector (and using laminar flow technique to create a portable "screen") for the Leia message... but the way I do things this is probably still a few years off. Love the finish you've got on yours... looking really great! Makes me want my printer up and running so I can get back to tinkering.

How much did it cost you to print and how much for equipment
@zombiehunter1152
@zombiehunter1152 2 роки тому
You’ll be looking around 20 to 25 rolls of filament give or take and $25 each roll, electrics you can get the padwan 360 system which would cost you around $500 , you can buy a lights kit for about $200 , then you have motors and other little bits and pieces.

Hi Kevin. Which kind of PLA+ did you use?
@KevinFlynn1967
@KevinFlynn1967 2 роки тому
I shouldve took better notes, lol. I used primarily Hatchbox regular PLA (basically why I call this an experiment), but for some tougher parts I used eSun PLA+ and Raise3D Premium. I had great luck with all three. The Hatchbox PLA is so nice for PLA printing and the Raise3D was my favorite. I did try a number of other filaments but I think it really depends on your settings how much time you are willing to tweet them.
