Lola work in progress update
Added 2022-06-17 11:45:20 +0000 UTCAnother Lola droid update :D
Having such a blast with this one :D i can't wait to print it all up, so what i added now
- created the shell so it's printable without any supports, and has all the necaserry offsets and mounts so led's and servo's can fit.
- the electronics will therefore be easily accessible and exchangeable if needed
- i wanted the final look to have a real droid feel, and that means hide everything that makes it work. So I designed the servo mounts and covers to camouflage the servo themselves and other electronics, so when looking from the back you will see hinges and flaps working as if by magic, and you will see only the droid components, as if it was a real life droid. The cover once again prints without any support.
- i made the slots for led's as well , so all electronics as well the servos will have easy access on the bottom
- i will include a "shell" or the "mask" separate version as well one fused to the "chassis" itself so you can pick what works best for you :) If going for the "chassis" only you will also have access to hinges form the top as well bottom
- not sure if i forgot to mention something but that might conclude the upper portion of the droid and i can move to the lower one. I will add room for power supply, speakers and have the legs removable
Oh, one more thing, i'm having a little trip tomorrow, so i'll be back sunday, and will continue the work then :D I'm about to go pack my bag :D
The little droid is not complex in shape but the engineering process i am doing to get it where i want it to be is quite intense, so i kindly ask for a biiiiit more patience, you will all get your hands on this little droid soon enough :)

My only regret from signing up to your Patreon (and yes I do have one) is that I didn’t know about you sooner because looking through some of the past items you did really makes me want to print them. Keep putting out phenomenal projects and continue to make us geeks happy. Fantastic work
