BB-8 parts

thingiverse

Interesting little Star Wars character .. saw it on a box of Cheerios and thought I might come up with a functional version. Needs a few weights at the bottom of the pendulum; ferro ring magnets to repel (neg - neg) which are to fit the sockets at the shoulder, to levitate the head and suspend the pendulum; stack neodymium magnets (neg + pos) as needed in the neck and spine to mount and center the head. Maybe add a few bb's at the cross ends of the pendulum to ride the inner surface .. insert the completed pendulum inside the body, and glue on the sides. Paint to your fancy Might want to scale it down to half or quarter size as well. Enjoy! Dear George Lucas, no copyright infringement intended. Purely an artistic endeavor, for the love of the saga.
