So I'm building a couple Droid Fusion Furnaces. A friend asked me to build him one of these little gadgets that charge Artoo on Dagobah in ESB. I've never paid it much attention. Didn't know what it was called, or any specs on it. So, along with his, I'm building one for myself as well. So ... two droid fusion furnaces, coming up!
After doing a bunch of research I determined a commonly agreed upon size. It's definitely bigger than I thought. Almost 12" tall and 13" in diameter!
The bulk of my build is mdf. Which means lots of ring cutting on my router table. I got really good at this building my R2D2 last year.
The rest is lots and lots of cast resin details. built all the fittings and greeblies out of various hardware finds and created a mold. This allowed me to created the dozes of little pieces needed.
So far so good. I'm rounding the corner on all the pieces for assembly.
From there I'll be putting it all together and figuring out the interior illumination.
