  • @fictionmyth
    @fictionmyth 9 років тому +31

    I have grown up in a body shop and for those of you who attempt this, when you peel off your masking, make sure you form a "cutting edge" with the tape. You do this by pulling a bit of the tape off then holding the loose edge of the tape pull it back on itself, as though you're making a "V" with the loose and adhered tape. That should allow you to have a much cleaner paint edge. As the way it pulls allows a neater removal process.
    Just an FYI, I hope that helps.

    • @jpoolerdom
      @jpoolerdom 9 років тому +3

      +Corey Carnes I don't work in a body shop, but have done a little rattle-can painting in my time. Shouldn't he have used a spray-on primer in between the wood putty and two coats of white spray paint? Especially considering how much wear the body is going to take, literally rolling around on the ground.
      Oh, and another thing, anyone who attempts this should be careful using a power sander on the wood putty. It makes it much quicker and easier to sand down to the next level (which is bad), and depending on your sander, you might leave some unwanted swirl marks.

  • @codedthreat5981
    @codedthreat5981 7 років тому +2

    Great video, used it as a reference when I started building mine. I put together the main body and got all the electronics working. Didn't make the head or do the BB-8 paint yet. I might just leave it as a big Sphero-like ball instead. I would recommend if you want any sort of distance from the thing, using a RC controller instead of bluetooth to be able to get some better distance (and yes that is a little bit more expense but worth it if you are planning on using this outside), that is what I did and can operate my ball just short of a 1/4 mile away. Also speaking of RC parts, get some beefy motors to make it really pick up speed. The ones he has are pretty nice but at first I tried to use some out of a cheaper RC car I had and it was not that great, and if you do go for speed make sure to also add a pretty hefty weight ballast to the bottom of your platform to keep it in position.
    I also made my ball a bit tougher, I did the fiberglass and bondo method to make it tougher. It also made it heavier, which might be why the original RC motors I had seemed under-powered. You can find a bunch of videos about using fiberglass and bondo to make the body. It won't be as tough as the sphero bb-8 I have, since apparently the sphero ball can take a shotgun blast and be fine, but it will take a crash into a wall or tree with basically no damage and you can always bondo, sand and repaint any areas you might need to.
    And one other major upgrade I did was how to charge the batteries. I installed my batteries on the underside of the platform to help keep the weight on the bottom, used zip-ties and hot glue to make sure they stay in place. I then cut out a trap door in the body to reach a cable I have attached to the battery packs. I have the cable attached to the platform using velcro and I just have to pull the cable out, attach it to the adaptor I have and plug it in the wall. I might make another ball to improve on this design because right now I only have a tiny plastic hinge in place and it is already feeling like it is about to break from opening and closing, but I had to keep it small and as flush against the body as possible, but I am thinking I can maybe get a better hinge and sand down a section inside the body to countersink it into the body to make it flush.
    All in all, not the most in-depth build I have ever done, (once again, not completed since I only have the body done) but still a fun time and can be done over a couple weekends (or just one weekend if you only do the body like I did and already have all the parts handy).

He didn't program the head to move really, he only placed magnets on top so that the head wouldn't roll with the whole body but to maintain being at the top. Still is an amazing build.

    Good job, Angelo Casimiro. KUDOS to you!!! And congratulations also to your entire family who helped out, especially your Dad. What's so special about this is that you used ordinary items that are readily accessible. Not everyone has a 3D Printer or familiar with Fiber Glass manufacturing (like all the other videos posted on DIY BB-8).
    Maybe I could endorse your story to Spencer, Director of Consumer Insights at Lucasfilm in their exclusive fan base feedback group of "Obi Wants To Know Me"? Or maybe even feature you in an article in Bantha Tracks c/o Mary Franklin for Star Wars Insider Magazine? Even a direct "snail mail" to Kathleen Kennedy thru Bob Iger of Disney will probably do. If you want to send your story, yourself, the address is: Disney Studios, 500 S Buenavista St., Burbank, California 91521.
    NOTE: They do reply with "snail mail" that is properly documented & officially sent (as compared to e-mail). And when they reply, its enclosed in an envelope with Lucas Film Limited insignia, using a stationary with official letterhead, and properly signed by the current President of Lucasfilm (although the CEO of Disney will be the one designated in the U.S. Mail receiving copy).
