Side-Mount Electronics Platform for Mr. Baddeley's v2 R2-D2

thingiverse

This electronics mount is specifically designed for Mr. Baddeley's V2 Droid Body and can be found on his Patreon page. I've created a back panel mounted electronics board with components situated on both sides of the board, which was a good idea at first. However, after our initial outing, I quickly realized that accessing items on the inside of the board became extremely challenging due to the large SLA batteries installed. This mod offers two additional mounting points that can be placed on either or both sides of the droid body. The mount comes in two components: a mounting surface that attaches to the inside of the droid and a bracket that secures behind the side vents. To ensure a secure fit, I used the following parts: 2x 18-8 Stainless Steel Socket Head Screws with M4 x 0.7 mm Thread, 35 mm Long, available at McMaster.com (part number 91292a131) 2x Zinc-Plated Steel Hex Nuts with Medium-Strength, Class 8, M4 x 0.7 mm Thread, also available at McMaster.com (part number 90591a255)
