Better late than never! It took a few weeks to arrange a little space in my workshop for the camera equipment, lighting and such but here’s the first episode. More to come over the coming weeks and months!
K-2SO Body
Well, this CC was the one that literally changed my view on what I’m doing and get to do because of my hobbies. Here’s the video that started it all. I just showed this video to a few interest forums and the feedback was phenomenal. So many surprisingly positive reactions. Zillions of questions about “how” covering every aspect from painting, 3d designing, 3d printing, mechanics, servos, servo controllers etc…. I then realized that people just wish to know how i did it (all). I guess I was so engrossed into resolving stumbling blocks with K2 and other projects that I never considered that I should go into more detail. So my next post will be kind of an announcement….stay tuned 😉
As I’ve begun to approach bigger and bigger parts I’ve realised that my CR10 300x300x400, which works great, was limiting my printing sizes and lengthening my printing times. So I decided to invest in yet another CR10. Its the CR10 5s which has a printed bed of 500x500x500. At this size I could print an R2 body or BB8 body sphere in one or 2 printing sessions. This works very will for a K2 but K2 is still much bigger. The upper body of my K2 was still printed on the “smaller” CR10 but I sliced up the parts to make them fit. My CR10 5s arrived afterwards. Here are some of the parts before painting….
