After talking with a few r2builders I decided to stick to the original colours. The PSI's should be red/blue in front and yellow/green in back. There's no point in making a great looking unofficial-artoo. Also I'm a pain when it comes to detail and it would just eat me up.
Now, like everyone else, its time for a little holiday break from artoo. But, it won't be a total break. I have a bunch of electric components, resin parts, hobby machinery and tools coming in santa's big red sack so there will be an unusual amount of drooling going on this holiday ;)
yea...they have these things in Hawaii as well ;) |
Comments on "no need for a 3rd PSI test..."
Hawaii? I thought u were in Sweden (Stockholm).

:p

hahaha Jason.... I was there earlier this year doing a presentation... right now I'm freezing my but off in Sweden (stockholm). But you are very welcomed to visit me and my family here in Sweden. The mailbox in Hawaii gave me the final inspiration to start building my own artoo ;)
Have a very merry and safe christmas holiday
Thomas
Haha..you did confuse me!
Sounds good..I'll look you up if Im everin Sweden!
How cold is it? We're about 5 below freezing right now..not too bad.
Jason
Its about 5 - 10 below....it other words warm this time of the year ;)
Wow...sounds like it gets cold there. We can get to about -40....but thats not too often.
Hope you had a great christmas and a happy new year!!!
Jason
Thanks Jason, yea normally went I visit my friends in the northern parts of sweden it gets around -30 or -40 as well. My opposite experience was about 52C (126F) in Las Vegas 2 years ago ;)
I promised the misses not to do too much work on artoo over the holidays but I still can surf the internet (r2builders) and plan some parts building, ordering etc. After the relatives have gone home (next weekend) I can begin doing some serious building, yippy. Its kind of like lookiing at your presents but not being able to open them, lol
Have a continued pleasant christmas Holiday and wonderful New Year with your loved ones :)
52 in Vegas?!? WOW! Me and my buddy are planning to go there in Feb for a getaway!
I hear you about seeing R2 and not being able to work. I take it you dont have kids?? Its like that for all the time now. ;)
All my best to you and your "misses" and the family for the new year!
Jason
Thanks and the same... by the way I have two 16 year old "kids" ;-)
AH..then you have helpers. ;)
Twins?
well.... twins yes..helpers...not really....todays kids love SW but hate doing anything creative, lol
