Treadwell WED-15 droid build : Part 3 - eye box modified

 

Friday 18th November

Part 3:
Did some modifications to the main plate, as I was happy with it’s strength, so included the missing angles and the rear cutout, also noticed that there’s a bolt or something, hanging down at the rear, so added a hole so I wouldn’t forget to add later 😂. Added some fake parts for illusion purposes.

Printed it off and really happy with it. Check ☑️

Made a longer set of location pins to replace the front ones.

Next up was designing how to fit a servo to move the ‘eyes’ up and down. Printed off a cropped piece, then surgically fitted it into one of the eye side pieces by cutting out a panel.
More on this bit in a future post.

I may need to make a removable panel so that the servo can be replaced if it failed….
