R2D2 computer socket interface

thingiverse

*** WARNING *** THIS IS AN EARLY DRAFT UNDER DEVELOPMENT *** WARNING *** I set out to create a computer interface for my R2D2 droid, inspired by the design of MrBaddeley on Thingiverse. I gathered measurements from an episode IV movie frame, so the replica may not be exact, but with multiple interfaces in the movies, it's not a significant issue. You can see the printed model alongside the reference frame used for measurements in one of the attached photos. Many people requested that I share the model even though it's still a work in progress and far from complete. So here it is. As this project is ongoing, I'm unable to offer personalization services like joining or splitting parts at present. When finished, the interface should be fully functional, detecting the insertion of the R2D2 probe, rotating the interface (using a modified R2D2 interface arm), and establishing a wi-fi connection with the droid. You're free to modify my files for your needs if desired. Additionally, feel free to donate some money to encourage me to complete this model sooner than usual.
