Cockpit Rear Bulkhead Complete!
Yeah – so it’s been two years since I finished the cockpit sidewalls – and now, as promised, the rear wall is finished! Here’s a link to the GrabCAD project!
Quad Cannon Test Print
Just got these polyjet printed and added a single coat of white primer. No sanding yet.
This is the ANH 5′ gun printed at half scale. It was printed in six pieces and includes hollows for 1/16″ steel rods inside the barrels and the articulation points.
I did this as a test print to figure out my tolerances for snap fits and such.
Quad Cannon Lives
A little mock-up to test targeting the quad cannon from the Millennium Falcon.
I used Unity3D to calculate the spherical aiming model, and then I derived the servo values from there which are passed to an Arduino to control the servos. Pew, pew!
