I had the opportunity to spelunk around the Ontario Science Centre with BB-8 last month, not realizing it would be my last chance. The building is now closed to the public, effective yesterday, Friday, June 21.

Robotics Weekend at the @OntScienceCtr. Thank you for hosting the Ontario droid builders! This was one of my first events since applying a tonne of mods to my droid. The droid ran without critical failures for two full days.

Porting these gauntlets over to the new mk2 build. I may rework the models in @adskfusion360 based on all the new reference photos that have come out since my first pass. #soldering #wirewrap #DIYDaftPunk #DaftPunk #thomasbangalter #Arduino #DaftPunkDecl… instagr.am/p/CpOISHILLje/

Testing a wire wrap tool I designed to fit between 2.54mm male headers and use 24 AWG stranded wire. #3dprinted in @esun3dprinting white PETG. If wire wrap was good enough for the #Nasa #Apollo mission computers it’s should be fine for my purposes. #pcbdesign #soldering #arduino
