Thank you for the mention of my post! I just finished printing main parts for my second droid BB9E. While I will be sanding the pieces, I may attempt to print R2D2, but it will be a probably too big project for my tiny apartment. I always wanted to have a collection of famous robots but I thought I will start with Wall-E. I just love this guy :)

Awesomeness :)

I really need to buckle down and finish at least one ;)
