My Mom always told me I should "make new friends" so at an early age I took her literally and started playing with robots. I never stopped even when I grew up so here goes my efforts at making some new droid companions.

R2-D2 Begins
R2-D2 Begins. Starting with an R&J dome I marked some of the panels I wanted to open on the inner dome. These were cut out using a dremel tool.
I decided to cut the inner dome into 2 parts in order to make it easier to fit and get all the parts aligned.
Finally the top part of the inner dome was wet sanded to improve the fit and clean up the edges of the openings I cut. Amazing how much work this represents.
