ATMI created a Dejarik area control panel (ATM) from the Millenium Falcon lounge / cargo room using a 6-drawer dresser as a base. The frame was cut with a table saw, but I used a laser for the square cutouts and etchings. The greebles were mostly 3-D printed. I created most of them based on images from the movies and a few behind the scenes shots. My goal was to match the ATM in The Force Awakens (TFA), but it takes elements from other movies for parts that weren't well shown in TFA. I call it ATM for short as it was inspired by the Apollo Telescope Mount console on Skylab. To keep the dresser functional, I added a few extra knobs, and made the table/shelf retractable. I also made some decorations to go with it: containers (cut to size and painted), X-wing helmet (3-D printed & painted) and Marksman remote (a 3D print modified to replace a levitating moon globe). |

Boba FettFor Boba Fett, I experimented with reinforced plaster (heavy) and air-dry foam (light) only to find out how brittle they both are. A layer of Goop (glue) added to everything made it resilient despite the brittle core. Eventually I replaced most parts made for Empire Strikes Back with 3D printed ones from Return Of The Jedi for better screen accuracy and to match R2-D2 / Slave Leia. |

Camtono CoolerI made a Camtono Cooler (and beskar safe from The Mandalorian) by modifying the TonyBlokeDesigns model and doing a little reshaping to fit it over a Coleman Poly-Lite cooler. The bottom was redesigned to be more screen accurate and to hold either 6 collapsible cups, or 2 cups and a secret storage compartment for the beskar I’m saving for foundlings. The electronics section is magnetically attached for easier removal for cleaning and battery insertion. |

Carbonite MeThe carbonite "Han Solo"-like door was made for my man cave. It has a thermal detonator for the door handle. I also made a conversion kit to turn it into a full model - including side panels with electronics, which also doubles as a protective transport crate when reversed. |
|
Dejarik TableThe Dejarik table was made with: 3D prints based on the Ian Martin files (Dejarik Builder's group on FB) with a few of my own modifications, a steel reinforced plastic pillar, a plywood base, a plywood intermediate level and an aluminum playing surface. For the electronics, I integrated an electronic piano and a few sound cards (Wookie and Klingon sounds) as well as switches for the lights. The lights have interchangeable colored tops so you can switch from the A New Hope to The Force Awakens color patterns. |
|
Dr. RhasivFor Dr. Rhasiv (Andor), I modified a commercial Narkina suit with blue fabric paint, and added a drawstring and hidden pockets. I made a medical case out of a plastic one I had and assorted greebles (3d printed and found). |
|
Grogu's PramThe neighbours threw out a cat carrier backpack, so I turned it into a pram for Grogu (The Mandalorian). The lid was cut back a bit (too long) and the breathing holes were filled in with the piece I cut off + polyfilla. On the bottom I glued on a foam lip (slightly sanded to round the edges), and 3d printed the front white greeble, inner red trim and hinges. I filled the inside with leftover packing foam bits. |
|
JediI made the Jedi out of a Judo gi and some tea-stained fabric. The belt was made from leather, plastic tubes and other assorted bits. The lightsaber was a custom design, using the electronics from a toystore saber, modified so it can have a detachable handle. |
|
R2-D2R2D2 was made with 3D prints based on the Michael Baddeley files (v2) with an aluminum dome from Granite Earth with some personal modifications and a barge tray to match the Return Of The Jedi look. For the electronics, I integrated a frequency hopping radio transmitter/receiver, a Sabre, a Syren, an MP3 trigger and amp, chargers. For the logic lights, I used LED belt buckles and for the PSI's I made some LED flashers. I also 3D printed a gold tray (from Jabba's Barge) and glasses. |
|
Slave LeiaSlave Leia's bra and boot trim were made with air dry foam over formed metal wire (with Goop again). The bracelet and skirt plates were 3D printed. The staff and hairpiece were assembled from assorted scraps. |
|
Willrow HoodI dyed some orange coveralls to make them slightly less orange, and added a few pockets (with tools made from greebles) and a button to make my Willrow Hood costume. For the wrist computer, I 3d printed a design I modified to fit over an apple watch so it's still useful. |
