Hi Guys, I'm wondering if anybody has drawn plans up yet? Has everyone decided on the size? Are people making this as a prop or want a fully working one? ...
Yes it may not all physically fit together, as you say animated. We have had that trouble with some of R2 as well (dome flaps that open two ways or drop inside...
Hi Guy, Looks like there is a bit to work out on this. I agree, lets make a standard. I'll start on the hands/arms once I get dimentions etc. I'm told the...
For the arms sliding back & forth I had originally thought drawer slides. But since the arms should slide all the way back & forth, you only have about a 4”...
Hi, I just had another look and the arm track is actually a C shape from looking from the side. It comes out, then can go all the way forward, then can go down...

I think it says four things (Wall-e, something like Hi I think, and then two different 'noise' sound bites). I was playing with a display with my nieces for a...
Yes, heard the sound box but the volume was really low and the theater was noisy. It would be great if we could get a clean recording off of it, just don't ...

Thanks! I have a nice sheet of ¾” plywood here, ready to make the body as soon as I determine how big each of the sides need to be via which parts overlap...
You're going to make the body out of 3/4"? That's going to be a heavy solid box. I was thinking 1/2 or 3/4 for the bottom and 1/4 for the sides. Looking...
Will, By now you must understand that I think outside the box. Because of this I am putting my drive motors INSIDE the box. My tracks will be on self contained...

If you watch the BnL promo, you¹ll note the 2 treads have to be almost touching each other to fit inside, and you can see the Tread support frames overlap...
