MY BB8 PROJECT

WHEN DID IT START?

• IT ALL STARTED IN 2016, IN SUMMER.
 PROBLEMS!!!
BALL TOO WEAK

TIME-CONSUMING

ACCESS TO THE INSIDE AND CLOSURE

ANOTHER STRATEGY
ANOTHER STRATEGY
ANOTHER STRATEGY
MORE PROBLEMS
MAGNETS AND MOTORS NOT
POWERFUL ENOUGH
I DON’T SEEM TO BE ABLE TO DEVELOP
AN OPENING AND CLOSING
MECHANISM FOR THE BALL
(ANOTHER) NEW STRATEGY
(ANOTHER) NEW STRATEGY
I DID IT! OR DID I?
 MORE PROBLEMS!!

THE MOTORS AREN’T FAST ENOUGH.

THE HEAD DOESN’T STAY ON TOP OF THE
BALL
let’s make a (better) hamster
drive!

 WELL, IT
WORKED…..
MORE OR
LESS…
 EVEN MORE PROBLEMS…
4 YEARS AFTER STARTING THE
PROJECT

THE BALL IS IRREGULAR. IT’S NOT PERFECTLY

ROUND, WHICH CAUSES PROBLEMS WITH THE
MAGNETIC ATTRACTION
I DECIDED TO 3D PRINT THE WHOLE
THING
and after 5 years of hard work
and a loooooooot of money
spent……

here he is at last!
