R2D2 - Non Electronic Version

youmagine

Please watch this video for more details: \n\nThe survey for my next project has just closed down. I'll post a video soon revealing the winner and outlining my plans to bring it to life! \n\nThis is the non-electronic version of the R2-D2 robot I created here: https://www.youmagine.com/designs/r2d2-this-is-the-droid-youre-looking-for \n\nI stripped away all parts designed for housing electronic components, and instead of using screws to hold it together, I opted for small cylindrical connectors. You can view them in the "extras" file.\n\nThe tallest ones connect the body to the arms/legs. The mid-sized ones link the butt plate to the middle leg. The smaller ones join the body to the butt plate. These connectors should be quite tight, but a simple glue will make them stick together if they don't hold properly.\n\nThe head simply slides on and once turned, it falls into a groove, allowing for rotation without falling off easily.\n\nI haven't printed this myself, so let me know if you encounter any issues during printing and I'll try to fix them. However, everything should be printable at 0.3mm layer height and all necessary supports are already included in the models. This model can also be scaled to some extent, despite the pegs making it difficult. You should still be able to downsize it slightly.
