Maker Faire 2015

OK, so got to show off R2 so far again this weekend. It's the first time I've had 'em rolling around in public. Got some serious control issues, mind; it seems the rear wheels aren't tight enough to the ankles, so there's a little too much "play", making the steering unreliable. Still, I had a good time and talked to a lot of folks.

R2 on the way to the Faire

Note the clear plastic "skin" I put on so people could see R2's innards. I figured it made sense, Maker Faire and all.

Dig it: a 3-D printer big enough to print furniture.

Note to self: get one of these for R2.

The gang all parked together at the end of the day

Hey, look who else is here!

Our droids lined up Sunday. You can see the clear skin better.

And of course it wouldn't be an R2 gathering without a big of on-the-spot maintenance.

It was pretty cool. Nice to see everyone and the progress being made with the different droids. Looking forward to KC Comic Con.
