Yep, another hit! You are EXTREMELY talented. I really enjoy seeing what you come up with next, because its always done so professionally! Last time I saw one of your videos it was Plo Koon, I've been away for a while, not by choice, so glad to see you have kept on going!!
Even as a 3d printed model, I can recognize the different bits and parts the prop makers used to kit bash the greeblies which is really cool to me.
Please make more of these floating props they’re so cool!
You’ve been dropping endless amazing videos! I always drop what I’m doing immediately when you post a new video and watch.
You’re one of my favorite RUclipsrs!
As a modeller I recognise some of the parts on the training ball.😊 great build ❤
The piece itself was gorgeous, but that floating effect just made it fantastic. So glad you were able to get that to work. What an amazing piece!! It's interesting that you had to remove so much material from the top half of the sphere to make the weight asymmetrical. I would've thought the big magnet in the bottom of the thing would do that. It was definitely the right move, though.
Okay, that is fantastic! I printed and made one 3-4 years ago with my FDM printer and sanding was a royal pain! That process with the cut up parts and high resolution resin printer made it look so easy!
I tried to look into making mine float too. I'm glad you managed to get yours to float. Excellent job! I can't wait to see the next project!
Fantastic job like all your other videos. You are a talented artist!
I was inspired to try this project. Bought the magnet kit pictured and everything. Getting it to actually balance and float is extremely difficult.
I built one about 15-20 years ago, using a real 6" hemisphere and as many of the actual model parts as possible (truck rims and tank cupolas and other parts). Couldn't get it to float properly, so I added a magnet to the top, and used a levitation device that had a top and bottom (kinda like a question mark). Then I tied an invisible fishing line to the bottom of the remote and the bottom of the base. The magnets on top are strong enough to pull the remote upwards, while the string holds it down.
Loving the amount of videos you have put out lately and not a single dip in the incredible quality of your projects. Well done!
Wow looks awesome it turned out fantastic. I like the little turn that it does. It will make a great show piece to anyone’s collection
Absolutely stunning! Fantastic work, love your videos. ✌️
You're always making the stuff on my to-do list lol, it's great motivation for me to get caught up. You did an awesome job!! The parts you did in chrome were most definitely chrome on the original, they are wheels from a model kit of a transport truck (18 wheeler) and were chromed like you'd expect from a car model kit part. Also, for the large and small eyes, the original used reflective safety tape, that's why those spots "glow" on screen.
That’s fantastic to know, thank you! I had wondered what the lenses were made from because in some of the pictures of the prop they look like they have a slight texture to them. Now I know what to get if I ever find myself making another one.
About the dynamic layer hight: the Mars 4 Ultra's .goo file format (and I assume the printer itself as well) supports changing almost any parameter per layer. You'd just need a slicer that supports that or custom a postprocessing tool.
really great. thanks for sharing. I like the weathering using an airbrush technique. I will try that on my next project.
Such a great job! I really enjoy watching the process and breakdown, thank you
This turned out Great! Well Done as always!
I would have added a power receiving wire ring to run a few LEDs inside that thing like where the milar llenses are, wouldn't add too much weight.
Awesome build! Wow!
another great build! Love how it turned out!
Nice Build, Well done! So much can be achieved with a good 3 D Printers and some hard work!
Amazing print, i love it 😍
Very cool! Great addition to your collection.
This is so awesome. Really happy to see that you are not including a little bit more electronics work into these builds.
For weathering, I would have guessed to make it more clean with scratches and slash marks on it sense it would have been used for training and indoors more instead of getting dirty and stuff. Still looks amazing
Very cool
Looks awesome! 🤩
Brilliant video and amazing quality of building ❤
you gotta show off more. pass a pencil under it to be like "look guys, it floats" lol
😂
great project and well done
Incredible work!
I've been printing in 0.035mm layer heights and its a good mix between speed and quality
Never thought of 0.035. I usually print either 0.03 or 0.05
Amazing job
This is awesome. You did a fantastic job.
Thank you!
That looks dope as hell!
what materiel are you using on your circuit to make the stencils to get those nice clean lines? :)
I just used some stencil vinyl like this: amzn.to/4aEJRs8
It has a lower tack adhesive on the back so it will peel off easily without damaging the paint underneath.
Very cool! I wonder what the range of wireless chargers are? It would be cool to be able to have one of those some how rigged to the base so you could have a little circuit in the Training Remote for lights (I can't remember if they had lights... so it might be moot). Great result... impressive... most impressive!
This is AWESOME! My 8 year old self would be floating of excitement for one of these things too!
(and my present day self desperately wants one too XD)
Good job, very amazing !
Thanks!
SO COOL and inspiring
This was an awesome project your skills never cease to amaze me! How is Chopper going?
He’s still the same as I left him unfortunately. The weather hasn’t been great so I’ve not gone back to doing any post processing work. Hopefully soon though! I can’t wait to start properly working on him.
Stunning
Thanks!
Amazing!
Cool! 👏
Hey beautiful build but what colour is the main ball please?
Wich clear coat are you using on your project ? To protect them !
Currently doing this but instead of a training remote its the treasure map from Treasure Planet
I'm worried about your hands, friend! You wore gloves during the least toxic part of the build relative to the others. I know you know, but for the others that may follow in your footsteps resin is nasty stuff on bare skin and 405nm UV light is like a little ball of direct sunlight and will give you burns. Be safe!
would love to see a few of these be made with a USB setup instead of a wall plug
wow now that's impressive, have you made the medical droid Vader uses on lea? it would be pretty similar but with arms and eyes that could be lit by a battery pack.
Very good job! Is it possible to make the sphere light up?
In theory, yes. If you wanted to keep it levitating and also light up, it would need to use some sort of battery powered light that could be accessible for turning on/off and charging. That was a bit more complicated than I felt like dealing with for this build, but it would be really easy to run lighting and wires into the ball if you were ok with a more static displayed version.
@@MMsPropShop I am sure that would look amazing
This looks super cool!
How much power does it need?
It uses a pretty standard 12v power cord.
I found out that the power adapter uses 12V 2A (24 Watt).
@@MMsPropShop Thank you!
I know it wasn't the focus of the video, but where'd you get that Watto from?
I used this model scaled down to 1:12 www.cgtrader.com/3d-print-models/art/sculptures/watto-star-wars-episode-i-3d-print-model
Wow
Hi. This is awesome.
I think make one. But have limited space. what is size ? THX
The ball itself is approximately 15cm.

Hello where in Canada are you from? I'm in luskville close to ottawa
Cool! I’m closer to the Toronto area.

Please make more and sell them to us lesser mortals without the skills to do this :)
I’ve had a few inquiries about them so I was considering making a couple of the static ones displayed on an acrylic rod/base.
