Very interesting mixture, I am curious what comes

JD
Oh my!🤭 I definitely feel a disturbance in the Force over here.. 😍

I need like corrugated plastic tubing in the 3mm to 5mm outside diameter range. Wire looms seem to only go down to 9mm o.d. Any ideas?

Cliff Jones
Bendy straws?

Ben M
I thought of that but I don't think they'd take paint or glue?

Starbase101
Recast the straws in the color you need....

Ben M
A friend made me an stl file, I'll try to print one

Ben M
3d printing the part worked great

A video update so you can see the leds: youtube.com/shorts/Zi28Xcn9aNY?feature=share

Mona
what brand/type 3d printer are you using ?

Ben M
I have a photon mono x. I'm not very good at using it, I get a lot of bad prints, but when it works it's awesome.

Something wrong with your airbrush, maybe needs cleaning - it keeps spraying large blackouts over the girl. 😉

Well @starbase101 basically I just don't want to violate the norms of scalemates. What started out as "oh I'd like to try putting an led in a model" seems to have gone seriously awry in a fun way.

(Don't think I want to know where the LED is being inserted now.)

Ben M
The robot body has a flashing red LED inside, and the head has a random color / random blink LED. It looks pretty cool, I'll make a youtube movie when it's done. I need to figure out how to attach the backdrop and the battery pack to the base. I might also do more painting on the backdrop.

Ben, look upwards for a moment, no not at the previous posts - just tilt your head backwards...a little more. Up there is where my small jokes seem to be relative to your workbench. (Probably this one too.) The build looks nice and the humor wasn't meant to be taken seriously. What do you think about the Robot holding a leash onto your Orion girl?

Ben M
The other suggestion someone gave me was to put a stack of cash in the robot's hand. Either way...

Robbie
There better be a Robbie the Robot in all of this. Forbidden Planet for the Win ;P

Ben M
I should put a battlestar galactica in the sky…
