Well, I'm finally getting back at it. I tried a few times since I stopped but the thought of all the prep and paint work that still remained was just too much. Finally I got tired of my 'scrapyard' Droid staring at me from the living room, where he sits with missing parts and parts still in primer.
The little guy deserves better than that, so I'm off to the races again. I'm going to try not to spend every spare hour working on it, as that's what burnt me out in the first place. That being said, I'm currently working on about a dozen parts at the same time. - Наука та технологія
Great to see you continue with the R2 build, I have learnt many things from your R2 build series so it has been very much appreciated. I have completed my 3D printed R2 build, just need to hook up all of the shadowmd electronics. I blew up my Host shield yesterday so I have the setbacks as well and the burnouts, especially from all the sanding...it never seems to stop. I didn't realize how much of a project it really was, John Salt's videos made it look easy..lol. All the best for the future build, looking forward to seeing the progress.
@scottc7749 I'm so glad that my videos helped! I'm sorry to hear about the host shield. I remember watching John's build videos and being amazed at how quickly he completed it. From time to time, I have to remind myself that we all just have to go at our own pace and don't rush it.
Following. I have the dome and body glued up and almost everything printed. We now need to finish the assembly and painting as well as the electronics. It's a fun project, but also big commitment!
That is an understatement! Good luck on your build! Remember that it's OK to take breaks from the project now and then. I didn't, and it ended up burning me out for quite a while.
Woo, never clicked a notification this fast in my life 😂 Glad to see you’re back at it 🙌🏻
LOL thanks!
Are you building another one? AWESOME!!!
@@Toy_and_Prop_Masters Another one? Nope, this is still the first one. It's just taking me way longer than I thought. A 2 year pause due to severe paint prep burnout is the primary cause.
@@TomsProjects Cool can't wait to see more!
