Having seen it in person and now having seen the amount of work that went into AARP-65 ! I have no words amazing display of tooling knowledge and execution! The Junkyard Jedi is a true master craftsmen!!
I loved meeting you all and seeing AARP-65 last year in Anaheim, and this making-of video is just icing on the cake. Great idea, amazing execution. Brian, your reactions were perfect
Your interactions throughout this made me laugh. Being a caregiver I’m thinking “good idea, old bed pan”. That was really cool thanks for posting that and I really love his vintage router plane.
This an awesome speed build and a great addition to the fleet of droids. I hope the Junkyard Jedi is able to adjust back to tranquility of shady sabers after being thrust back into the excitement of saving the galaxy far far away.
First of all, this is ingenious! The amount of work and engineering in this build blows me away. Secondly, why the Smugglers Room channel doesn’t have a million subscribers, leaves me befuddled.
It's nice to see that after thwarting the Empire's undercover operations deep within the garden center of Walmart, that the Junkyard Jedi was able to retire to a life peace and relaxation!
Too awesome! It was great to see a droid completed and the mechanics of it. Genius build. I love it And now I see potty parts runs in the genes. Lol (all puns intended)
Fantastic job! Always exciting to see the Junkyard Jedi in action. 😁 P.S Brian your face matched mine throughout the video! 🤣 Especially with the math; my brain does not compute.
As a droid builder myself, him building that in 20 days is unbelievably mind blowing. He did such an amazing job on it too, just goes to show ya as long as there’s passion and will, you can do anything 👍.
It's always amazing to watch the Junkyard Jedi work. I always learn something new, I loved that vintage hand router! And it was an absolute pleasure to me him, your mum and AARP-65. I wish I'd have gotten a picture with them too.
I'm laying in bed sick today, unfortunately, but the pure consternation on Brian's face during that first math bit has made me feel at least 7% better. :D
Brian…. These are the types of things my dad and I would have done if I hadn’t moved away to another state and gotten married…. You will forever remember these days and events with such fond memories…. I’m so envious and super happy for you! Great build!
Thank you much! My dad and I do live in separate states, so you can always find ways to work together even when you are apart. You guys should give it a shot!
Junkyard Jedi is back!!! Love the use of the old wheelchair. The techniques… the geometry…the bedpans… He stays educating us padawans! Excellent as always Master Jedi.
Could you BE any more awe-inspiring? This is so very creative. Your calm narration makes this an enjoyable video to pause and absorb each step. I wasted too much time being a "serious adult". Now I'm trying to set free my Star Wars fan self.
I'm constantly amazed at people's creativity. Awesome build. Side note: I'm also constantly astounded at how many people are intimidated by simple geometry 🙄 I mean I am an actual physicist but still... 2πr and πr² are the two most basic equations in math. Come on people!
As always a privilege to watch the Junkyard Jedi in action. And Brian cutting in trying to figure maths had me rollin, 🤣, we were all thinking it but somehow you said it without saying it. Lolol. Such a fantastically creative build. Love it!
WOW! I love all the old school techniques he used to build this beauty. Now that 3D printers have come along a lot of these techniques will be lost unfortunately. What a fantastic and fun build!
You know, that was one of the biggest reasons I wanted him to build this and share it. When I see this I realize that we can have both new technology and old techniques working together. So we just need to keep mixing them you know?
So when I saw this at Celebration I was impressed, but I had no idea how much work was put into this. I think part of me just assumed he’d have retrofit an existing droid, but to build it from scratch like that is just unreal. It makes me appreciate it even more. Junkyard Jedi is next level!
Man that looks better than the pictures I have seen. It must have been so much fun growing up with Junkyard Jedi! Always love his builds. Thanks for another awesome video!
Awesome craftsmanship as always. Being a machinist it makes me itch whenever I see plans glued to material like that, but I guess that's sometimes the best way. I just wish the plans on the builders forum had dimensions too. Haven't been there in a couple of years so I guess it's time to go explore and get some of those stl files. And a 3D printer, lol.
@@TheSmugglersRoom I actually have a decal that I can email you on what it looks like the fire dept. droid , what's your email? Your welcome and glad you like the idea on the medic droid lol
This is too cool!! Wow, a lot of work goes into these guys. Question, though: this was just for Celebration, right?? What became of AARP-65 afterward?? I mean, he’s not that small and I know you guys do a lot of these R-Unit droids. Would be and interesting geek-ication video
Thanks! Oh he will get plenty of use! There are so many comic cons, and other events to use this. And when not in use, they make for great display pieces!
That is pretty funny, you never no when you will need that little high voltage pick-me-up. Just one side note... in starwars the medical cross is blue.
This was awesome! What was the glue that he used for the styrene? At work I use ReznBond but I’m more interested in finding out about this brand. Looks easier to use.
now you need to make a Blue/white police droid with blue n red police lights. hehe i love the AARP-65 thats cool and being a retired emt/paramedic i love the paddles, IV pole , wheelchair wheels
I can’t speak for him entirely, but I know when I work with Styrene I do use a bit of both. I am assuming that the dome needed a bit more of a gusset and possible a little extra strength that the CA glue provided as it’s thicker.
I'll admit I got distracted by pie for some reason during part of this, but I liked it... my only criticism would be that it needed more clamps. So it's construction criticism, if not constructive criticism.

Thanks for watching Lisa, the medical references just kept coming to mind, had to “go” with it
well technically it is a wash basin. still funny to have it in the video.
That was honestly the most wholesome and funny SR video I’ve seen yet🤣 Its also really nice to see your dad enjoying Star Wars as much as you
Thank you very much!
This an awesome speed build and a great addition to the fleet of droids.
I hope the Junkyard Jedi is able to adjust back to tranquility of shady sabers after being thrust back into the excitement of saving the galaxy far far away.

Absolutely mesmerizing to watch the Junkyard Jedi scratch build a droid.
Isn’t it though? It’s crazy how much I enjoy it!
Fantastic job! Always exciting to see the Junkyard Jedi in action. 😁 P.S Brian your face matched mine throughout the video! 🤣 Especially with the math; my brain does not compute.
LOL!! Thank you! So glad you enjoyed it!
The wife and I just watched the build video. Awesome as ever. We loved your reactions to some of his materials! Now I want a droid now
Thank you very much!
Old jedi at the jedi temple.. never looking to the future. Always looking what's its front of his nose.. I think its amazing..
LOL, love it!
I could watch these types of builds all day long. Fantastic job by the Junkyard Jedi!
Thank you bro! Very much appreciate it!

Couldn't agree more! It was amazing to see him put it together so quickly and pull it off. Thank you for watching!
Your dad, the Junkyard Jedi is a genius! Absolutely awesome 👏👏
He's outstanding! Thank you very much!
Looks like he had a ball making it and even more fun walking around Celebration.
He totally did! Smiles ear to ear!
It's always amazing to watch the Junkyard Jedi work. I always learn something new, I loved that vintage hand router! And it was an absolute pleasure to me him, your mum and AARP-65. I wish I'd have gotten a picture with them too.

So glad we could help a little, hope you get well soon! hang in there!
I’m sure Brian’s face in school was the same way. Thanks for raising your head to watch and get well
I'm not sure how this build got past me but I'm happy I finally got to see it. Brian, your dad is genius. So fun. Cheers - Virgil
Amazing and inspirational. Proof that the best years are ahead and you don't have to stop loving Star Wars.
AMEN!
Never too old to have a good time, thank you.
This was a master class in problem solving and creative solutions. We can see where Brian gets his creativity. Truly one of the great Nerd Families.
Thank you so much!
This droid build is great in all the right ways. Nice work Junkyard Jedi!
Glad you like it!
Thank you for bringing your medical droid to Amarillo for AMA-Con 2022. It was awesome to see the real thing in person and meeting its creator.
Thank you!

Absolutely amazing craftsmanship!
Thank you!
Bowing to the One known as Junkyard Jedi. Genius build. Genius!
Thank you!
Definitely 1 of my all-time favourite vids.
Thank you!
Kids, How he makes the body and head is how we used to do it before 3D printing came along! Hats off sir!
Absolutely
Hats off to TJJ for an amazing build, absolute pleasure seeing this created from nothing.
Thank you!
I always learn something new from the Junkyard Jedi, couple of more tools on the wish list..........such an amazing build!
Thank you! He really is a wizard!
A great way to make friends and something out of nothing!! Amazed at the work and the spirit!! Keep on cosplaying!!
Thank you!
This video shows that this hobby can be done by anyone, no matter the age o the material they use.
This is so inspiring!
Absolutely
"We've got an unused bedpan"...😂
LOL!!! Right???
Ah, if you only knew where it came from Ryne.
I really enjoyed watching the Junkyard Jedi's build. I picked up a couple of tips I may use someday myself. Good detail!
Glad you enjoyed it! He has always taught me so many things.
you can tell by the way your dad is working, that he has tons of experience in building droids. This is a hilarious and well build Project!
He certainly does! Thanks for watching!
I have made a few in my day, thanks for watching
Absolutely brilliant!!! The Junkyard Jedi is a true master!! Thanks so much for sharing this my friend!

As a paramedic I can really appreciate this one your dad did an amazing job I love it.

Thank you so much! I agree with you, and that he did it in under 20 days is insane!! LOL
Thank you so much, Celebration was a blast. Thank you for watching

Something that many people don’t think about to build in their projects.😀. Thank you.
You are welcome! Thank you for watching
This was such a great build! It turned out wonderfully. I absolutely lost it at the naming of the droid. It's hilarious and creative!
Thank you so much!
It could have stood for Another Awesome Robot Project 65. Thanks Kota for watching.
Saw this in person it was so awesome!
This was great! Another wonderful project and video. Thanks for sharing!

learnt me alot from just watching awesome colab
Glad to hear it
That is so impressive!
Thank you very much!
Brian, your dad is amazing.
Thank you! He really is!
Very creative and cool! Love it! Needs a Bantha beer holder, for medicinal purposes of course 😃
LOL! You are so right Mark. We actually discussed that at Celebration. I am certain he is going to add that to the kit!
Yup, Dual cup holders, one for my lovely assistant!
I seen them on another channel i watch Ordinary Adventures,looked great 👍
Thank you! It was fun to see them on there!
Amazing build. He get my two thumbs up! 👍👍. Thanks for sharing. Happy days and model on! 😎🇨🇦

Glad it was helpful!
I would love it.. being in the medical. Very important now in everything going on.

When I saw this gentleman in other Star Wars Celebration videos, I thought it was your dad. LOL Amazing build!

Outstanding! Great build!
Thanks a bunch!
Loved that! I knew if I kept all those walker and portable toilet parts, they'd someday be useful for something. Now I know. ••• Thanks! PEACE!!!

Thank you kind sir, I didn’t think I could ever teach YOU new tricks.
Thank you my friend!
Good luck my brothers!!!..

This was awesome! What was the glue that he used for the styrene? At work I use ReznBond but I’m more interested in finding out about this brand. Looks easier to use.
He used "Weld-On 3". It basically "welds" the PVC together. Here is a link: amzn.to/3y4cMDO

Thank you Erik, loved incorporating all the medical references to the droid.
@@junkyardjedi386 if you make a police one let me know I know where to get nice strobe lights n decals
Incredible work!
Can I ask why the switch from styrene glue at the beginning of building the head to what looks like superglue later on?
I can’t speak for him entirely, but I know when I work with Styrene I do use a bit of both. I am assuming that the dome needed a bit more of a gusset and possible a little extra strength that the CA glue provided as it’s thicker.
That is great. !!!!
Thank you!
Damn that was Awesome 👏🏼
Thank yiu
Thanks for watching Jared.
I'll admit I got distracted by pie for some reason during part of this, but I liked it... my only criticism would be that it needed more clamps. So it's construction criticism, if not constructive criticism.
more clamps are never a bad thing
hello . good video very good your work. Could you share with me the sane template of that droid please. greetings
