R9 dome files ready in the wip folder
🕑 Added 2018-02-24 11:41:04 +0000 UTC Just completed the first set of files for the R9 dome if you fancy something different! I’ve printed the dome and rings, nice print and build. Panels and greebles also uploaded but not fully printed those yet.

Yeah, all designed to work without supports.
Thanks, thats what I was thinking of. Without supports works?

Hi, same settings as I did. Orientation wise I printed on the flat plate with holes in it as the base, so like an orange segment on its side.
I started printing the parts... could you give me some advice on the orientation of the main-dome parts? Did you use supports? I wanted to go with .3mm layer and .9mm walls with 15-20% infill.

it is in the patreon folder.
Can someone point me to the WIP folder?
This looks incredible. So awesome we can make one droid and swap the domes out. Much appreciated.

That would be awesome 👍🏻

I’ve done the R7 Radar eye, but will do the dome also. Have been looking at modules for the body to swap for the other astromechs, so yes will do eventually. :-)

Great job mate. Looking forward to printing this one out . Any chance of doing an R7 dome and the R7 body panels to swap into the R2 body panels.?
