Re: Darthpedge's C3PO Build..
Hi builders here's an update.. I bought another lid as I like the one seen in earlier photos but its a little heavy, Chris however has since made a larger one from styrine and have to say is great.. Iv done my rear panel so its removable and now working on putting sims on shorts to fit better...
Iv added the shims and these will be trimmed back to suit..
