I need a version of Annie where #stanleytucci plays a gay Daddy Warbucks. @felicityblunt how do I make this happen? #annie

Put together these beautiful electronics for R2 today. Now just to fine tune the colors. #starwars #r2d2 #makerspace #props #movieprops #r2builders #astromech @1030jh

Outside of a few errors any good Gunter should know...I really enjoyed Ready Player 2. Great job @ernestcline #ecto88 #readyplayerone #readyplayertwo #ballantinebooks @erniecline instagram.com/p/CIOQhdNAo-L/…

Took the day off from R2 building to begin the upgrade process of my Han Solo in Carbonite. These new panels are amazing. #starwars #hansolo #makerspace #props #movieprops

New version 0f the legs are all cut out and I picked up a couple of metal parts. Super happy with how all of this is coming along. #starwars #r2d2 #r2builders #makerspace #props #movieprops

Picked up a handful of parts from the plasma cutter today. They don't come out nearly as clean as I'm used to with the laser but they clean up nice never the less...plus for the price it was worth the extra elbow grease for these parts. All this for $70. Not too shabby.

Getting a bit more done today. Cleaning up the seams continues and added a steel rail so I can magnetize the back door. #starwars #r2d2 #makerspace #props #movieprops #r2builders

Started working on the battery box bypass area and the seams on R2 tonight after a chat with my buddy @1030. Gotta stay motivated! #starwars #r2d2 #makerspace #props #movieprops #lasercutting #r2builders

R2 skins are on! Couldn't be happier! @1030 check this out.

Inner skins are mounted. Now to start working on the part everyone will see. #starwars #r2d2 #makerspace #makerspace #movieprops #props #r2builders

After nearly 20 years this guy is finally coming back to life. Got my new laser cut skins in and they gorgeous. Now comes the arduous task of prepping and mounting them. So crazy that this is a real thing again. #starwars #r2d2 #makerspace #props #lasercutting #r2builders

Making a bit more progress. I try to get another piece or two done a week. I'm going to run out of pieces that just need cleaned up soon.#r2d2 #starwars #r2builders #makerspace #props #movieprops

Fixing these are probably more work than just starting over, but my friend Dane helped me make these 10 plus years ago. Last fall we lost him to cancer so I'm determined to make sure these legs are incorporated into my build. #starwars #r2d2 #makerspace #props #movieprops

Now to glue these bad boys up and start the clean up work on them. It should go pretty quickly though. Damn I love a laser cutter. #starwars #r2d2 #makerspace #props #movieprops #lasercutting #r2builders

Prototyped some new R2 parts today. Horseshoes! #starwars #r2d2 #makerspace #props #movieprops #lasercutting #r2builders

My R2 parts so far. I'm slowly pulling out parts from a nearly 20 year old pile of stuff. #starwars #r2d2 #makerspace #props #movieprops #r2builders

Before and after of the metal pipe I'm going to be using for R2's shoulder. For years I just used aluminum tape. This go round I decided to up my game a bit. #starwars #r2d2 #makerspace #props #movieprops #r2builders
