My goal is to have an R2-D2 that can move around on 3 legs, turn his dome, and have lights and sounds. Anything extra will be determined later on by how expensive it is and how hard is is to incorporate into the build.

The beginning of the build.
Today I started on the build of my R2-D2. I began by cutting some of the wooden verticle supports for the body frame on the table saw. I have an order placed for the styrene dome, but I do not expect it to arrive until after March. The styrene skins for the body have arrived and they look awesome. There is going to be a lot of cutting involved, but first, we must have a frame to put them on.

Be sure to become a follower of this blog to be kept up-to-date on the build as it progresses. I plan to post many pictures as I go.
