BB8
thingiverse
I'm attempting to build my own Star Wars BB8 droid from scratch. The main components can be printed using a 3D printer. Designing the parts completely anew was a daunting task, but I rose to the challenge. The largest part of this project is undoubtedly the shell. If you happen to get your hands on a 200 mm diameter acrylic shell, then there's no need to print one from scratch. The mass inside and wheels have been optimized for simple brushed DC motors. The ones I'm using are 52 mm in diameter and 20 mm high. A servo motor will be used to control the head. More exciting updates are on their way!
