  • A How To video on how I made a scratch build droid from recycled trash. I had this Advil bottle and as soon as I saw it I knew I needed to make a droid out of it. I hope you enjoy this custom toy.

      @@DRToysCreations Oh! oh! I pulled the innards of a dental floss container out recently. If you turned the insides vertical (of the brand I had of course) it had kind of a mechanical crane look to it with a wheel too (where the floss was originally wrapped around). I wrapped some .025" polystyrene rod around it to look like a cable and attached a hook to the end of it. I was making a Star Wars mechanics bay diorama with some rebel ships being worked on. The "crane" was a perfect addition to the rebel hanger bay mechanics shop. Dental floss to the rescue.

    Nice build! I am kind of late to comment on this video, but l noticed one thing: always drill the barrel of your gun out. It adds much more dimension to a gun when there is an actual opening on the end. (Oh, and that is a capacitor you put on the leg, not a resistor, but that is just me nitpicking)

    • @DRToysCreations
      @DRToysCreations  2 роки тому
