Author	Topic: Has anyone ever made an Astromech droid for their car?
del Registered: Jul '08	Date Posted: 8/28 8:00pm Subject: Has anyone ever made an Astromech droid for their car?
	I was thinking about just making the dome "head" of an R2 unit to attach to the trunk of my car. Has anyone else made one, or even something a little more involved? I don't really want to cut the trunk lid to insert a full model, because I don't know what else would be affected and I really need that trunk space for my job. I could really use some advice on what to make it from and how to attach it to the car, that would prevent too much damage from being done to it. -----signature----- My stuff on Photobucket http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v623/delirium_dizzy/ On MySpace http://profile.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=user.viewprofile&friendid=54045081

	I think I've seen a few on photos at cons, but I haven't any on me. -----signature----- Jacen and the two Vergeres http://swfanon.wikia.com/wiki/User:Katana_Geldar/Jacen_Solo%2C_Vergere_and_the_Force "They press some bum button and out comes the beams." - Excellence Aliena nobis, nostra plus aliis placent.

	All you would need to do is get an R2 dome (make it look like Obi-Wan's R4 in his jedi Starfighter) and just attach that. the domes are easy enough to come by. And they price range varies, depending on what materials you are using. - Bill -----signature----- "In for a micron, in for a meter. No one makes a victim of folks I'm sworn to protect."

	I was going to link to Shawn's H-Wing, but Lars beat me to it. R2 on the H-Wing is wired so that he actually turns, spins, lights up, and talks. -----signature----- You can't take the sky from me. He tini nga whetu e ngaro I te kapua iti. Dyslexics of the world, UNTIE!
