After building astromechs a protocol droid seemed a logical choice, especially as so many fellow builders in the club kept suggesting I had the frame for it!

I must admit, I do quite like building things that you don’t see many of and its this that pulls me towards learning cad and electronics more and more amongst other skill sets. Although there is not so much a specific club, there are groups of people who have really helped and enabled me to develop my own suit.

Unlike the other droids til now, 3PO is entirely 3d printed. He’s come with his own unique challenges but it again is another journey and one which I look forward to follow for years to come.

If you are thinking of printing or building your own suit I can’t recommend the C-3PO builders group on Facebook enough. There are some very talented people out there and the kindness of some has enabled anyone with a 3d printer to jump into building their own suit.

I’ll jot down some updates again soon, so stay tuned!
