Star Wars Prop Build

[@Mu-podcast]

Like a poster below, I made it about halfway through the video before I jumped to the store and ordered the full kit. This is exactly the sort of thing I was wanting for my full scale R2 build. Thanks for the fantastic design and execution. I bet the pile of parts from iterating the design is impressive.

I love this build. If you want to get a more even illumination in the interior of the light boxes hit the interior with a super white or even white with a slight spray of silver. It will massively reduce or eliminate the light fall off as you get away from the diodes themselves. Keep up these great projects.

[@TheSmugglersRoom]

Thank you! And you are 100% correct, That is the one thing I feel like i missed. The blue tile doesn't even glow as a result, so I am certainly going to do that again.

Thank you very much! We really appreciate it, and cant' wait to see how yours turns out!

[@scottthomas6202]

Something you might want to consider...timer motors. Not as common as they used to be , but are great slow turning motors. The downsides are the rpm is usually fixed - from one quarter rpm to maybe sixty , and the are typically 120 volt AC , but they are durable and long lived. Just make sure it's a " continuous duty" model. They still pop up as surplus every now and then. For something like your basement build , they might have a use..

[@TheSmugglersRoom]

Whoa! Thank you Scott, that is a great idea and something that i would love to try. Thank you very much for sharing that.

[@GarlandLym]

Scott Thomas that sounds awesome

[@scottthomas6202]

@@TheSmugglersRoom Their main advantage is simplicity...give them 120 volts AC and they start turning ..no driver circuit or anything. Low current consumption and long life..

[@Iskelderon]

Man, I just love how you've taken to selling greebles on your website for others to use, the same way Randy Cooper offers those curated sets for starship model scratchbuilders! Hope they sell well enough to make the effort worth it, since it's a great service to the Star Wars community.

Great looking panel. Pity you couldn't have gotten the stepper motors. I went with HDD motor for mine using TIP 122 darlington pair transistors, driven by an arduino. By modifying the timings I was able to get it to flick forward and backwards randomly. It isn't finished yet, but I'll post it when it is. Looking forward to more on the room build and completion of DD3. Great work.

[@GunnerAl9]

Where do the wires lead to at the end when you had like ten of them coming out of the hole on the top or bottom? What voltage were you using. If it was low, why not keep the wires inside the box and create a switch using one of the buttons you added? You never mentioned where the wires were heading to. This item is so cool. When it's back in stock I think I'll order one for my R2D2 room.

[@TheSmugglersRoom]

Thank you! To be honest we have not entirely figured out how all of it will move. Each "wheel" is isolated, but the real trick is hiding any of the mechanical aspects of the prop so you don't see the gears or motor connections. Should be fun to figure it out!
