Hoth/Scarif Ear Radio parts question

[TheMechanic]

Can anyone I.D. the parts used in the Hoth or Scarif ear radio? I'd like to build my own. Thanks.

Think the Hoth one was a Hengstler counter, so assume it could be the same?

Kinda looks 3D printed off of that fuzzy pic. Not sure if those are print lines or what.

A real actual parts com-unit would be an awesome build!

theres always the available files on Thingiverse if you feel like going that route.

There's a guy out there who makes a dead on replica cast in resin but I'd really like to make one that's 'mine'.

Except that a real Hengstler counter is really heavy, so the cap would be very lop-sided ...

I've looked at the Hengstler counters but I don't see anything similar except maybe the basic shape.

Looks like the exhaust you get on the side of the cab on the big american trucks - wasn't a tanker model used elsewhere?
That is at the bottom

Definitely not print lines all of their 3D printed props are SLA printed or either printed using a polyjet plastic printer in those create and don't have print lines at all because it is very different and doesn't use a string filament of any type. I actually really don't know why you would even think they would allow print lines to show on a prop that is so small as well just saying.

So I'm wondering if the horizontal round piece is a handle to a tool or something?

Maybe like this machinists screwdriver..

That's a pretty good and great start looks about the same length to me.

To me the Hoth radio seems to have a larger horizontal round bit. As well as the grooves in them.

The Rogue One radio however looks smaller in both size and grid pattern
But this may be a result of shadows

also, great picture @Probe Droid :thumbsup
