Thomas' R2D2: The UnDead
http://tomsr2.blogspot.com/2011/09/undead.html
Wednesday, September 14, 2011. Wow, it has been along time since I had anything to post. I'm working on R2's new foot motor holders and his foot shells. These are the very old Kelly Krider foot shells, I have been putting off working. On them due to the fact that they needed so much work. Even the center area for the ankle to mount did not come with the foot. I now have the center ankle area installed and now I'm filing the channel to fit. All of this stuff I've had put away for a longtime.

red's Droids: October 2011
http://r5-d4.blogspot.com/2011_10_01_archive.html
This is my blog about building Astromech droids. Saturday, October 8, 2011. Worked on my antenna today. Today I tried to extend the range of the Vex antenna. Its really short like 12 inches long and means when I use the Vex transmitter I have to be atleast 12 feet away. Here is how I had it wired up. The vex is the yellow box with the short antenna I had wrapped around the frame. Posted by red UFO. Wednesday, October 5, 2011. Painting My Tinted Dome.

http://r5-d4.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
This is my blog about building Astromech droids. Monday, December 26, 2011. Despite the lack of updates on here lately. I'm still working on droids, slow but sure. Here is a progress update. I have been collecting parts for to finish the domes. I recently got these HPs and radar eye in clear resin from Cal. I can't say enough about how awesome these parts are! Here is each HP part side by side for comparison. The old school HP is a little higher then the parts currently being run on and off. Victor's R2D...

red's Droids: Working on R2-Q5's dome
http://r5-d4.blogspot.com/2012/05/working-on-r2-q5s-dome.html
This is my blog about building Astromech droids. Thursday, May 31, 2012. Working on R2-Q5's dome. Here is my construction of the R2-Q5 dome in styrene. What seems like an easy project has turned into quite a challenge, read on. The inner and outer domes didn't quite fit so I had to cut the inner dome in half. I used Weld On 3 first to put the spider looking ring on. Glued the bottom but it didn't hold. What worpage might look like! This is what the other side looks like. After 1 year as a parts colle...

red's Droids: June 2011
http://r5-d4.blogspot.com/2011_06_01_archive.html
This is my blog about building Astromech droids. Sunday, June 26, 2011. CPU Armed Painted and Misc stuff. I haven't updated here in a while but I've been busy with some parts and waiting for things in the mail. I'm pretty much done painting the CPU arm and I have the servo attached! Painting the arm was much easier than I thought. Here's some of the basics so you can get an idea on how to paint yours. Power is restored back to the droid via the power board. I also installed a new Pittman motor so the...
