Lol it was just a joke. Who knows, you might have needed some more filament too
ill enter at some point, I was just trying to make something specifically for the competition rather than using an old model.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ONnFEvNyB_gIt's powered by an Arduino board and remote controlled via RF. This droid self-balance on two wheels, play sounds, and has several programmable LEDs.Printing the whole body and head takes about 200 meters...
I created this 3D Printed BB-8 droid!
It is motorized and remote-controlled to move around and interact.
I’ve made the design in SketchUp, It’s printed half-size so it doesn’t take tons of filament. The robotic platform is Arduino-based so you can add programmable LEDs and sounds.
The video is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ONnFEvNyB_g
Enjoy!

First my idea was too large and too little time to implement, so I said that the size dosn’t matters and I focus on utility. Too soon I have a ball and decided to make cufflinks for my shirt. I am a fan of Star Wars so of course the cufflinks will be the theme in StarWars. They have been printed with a layer 0.15 in ABS. Everyone knows that the biggest problem is just the smallest prints, so it was this time.
I hope that someone like them and surely someone will use them:)
Cheers

Hey ! I am glad you like it
I don’t really have time for that these days, but maybe after the competition.
My painting skills are not so good, so my model might look very ugly after.
Hello Simona,
I understand that the deadline on March 21st but is there a cut off time? If there is a cut off time, please let us know the time and time zone.
Thank you!

My friend and I decided to make the map to Luke Skywalker from “The Force Awakens.” Then we took it a dozen steps further.
To be clear, we didn’t print the map itself. We printed the flash-drive-shaped object that BB-8 carries around, but with space to fit a real flash drive within it. With this, we came to realize, “What good is a flash drive without a USB port?”
So then we printed a Star Wars themed USB port with over a dozen 3D printed PLA parts. The port is complete with a mechanical descending and lowering vertical port, plus a fully-functional mechanical iris door at the top. The Resistance can finally read USB drives.
Check it out:

Hi Simona,
Is there a specific cut off time on March 21st? You mentioned that the winners will be decided on March 21st so there must be a cut off time in order to give the Ultimaker / 3D Hubs team members enough time to go through all the submissions and decide on the winners.

+1 for NEW DESIGNS. Seems like someone is downvoting people all around and put you into the negatives. I really hope the judges totally neglect the votes. It’s creating a bad aura for the entire community.
