He he he he!! Not spying, maybe I'm just psychotic ummm... I mean psychic! I had an idea of using an R4 (cone) B.A.D. head for the actual "suction cup" thing at the end of the hose that attaches to the Astro droid's head.

My plan on the "droid-lift" was to use some small craft suction cups from Hobby Lobby...

Depends on which one he builds. In ANH the droid lift tube looks more like a small suction cup. However, in TESB the droid lift tube looks more like an R4 (cone) dome.

Guys, I have 2 pics where you can barely see the one I am going for. Why this one you ask? Because I have the perfect fodder for it.

I am in the process of finishing up some operational equipment for the maintenance and construction bay. Also playing around with a removable second level and storage racks for speeders or more storage bins. I will take some WIP pics of this aspect later today. For now I am proud to say the members of X-Wing Rogue Squadron and several Rebels stopped by yesterday for emergency repairs to their vehicle that was damaged durring a mission.

Group-shots! w00t!!

Jason, I hadn't noticed that before - excellent screen-shot.
Spry - you will pull it off, elegantly, and everyone will go, "Well, yeah - of course!" That's the kind of magic you have. Work it, man, work it!

Spry,

Speaking of fodder for the Droid Lifter thing (is there an "official" name for it?), didn't the old Kenner maintenance mini-rig thing come with some corrigated hose with a suction cup on the end? Either that or the hose from the Kenner/POTF2 E-Web cannon could work.

The wire loom i used in my Hoth dio would work perfectly, man that stuff has so many uses in the SW dio universe

Do you notice the 2-dimensional Y-Wing "cut out" in the background? A quick shot on the screen and you'll think that's a fully operable prop. Nope, it's just a 2-D mock cut out.

Thanks Jay, Ron and Doc! Hey Jason, I too noticed that cut out for the Y-Wing!

OK, I have built the astromech lift but not photographed it yet. I have photograped the crane I built along with a few new removable elements that will add variety to the bay. This being the maintenance and construction bay. They will be building a Y-Ugly in the near future now that we have a crane available.
