robothut Posted August 1 Posted August 1 Wrong glue for 3d printed parts Eagle. If they are resin printed then use a UV glue or super glue, if they are FDM filament printed then use Weld On #16 or super glue.

Brian.. Posted August 15 Posted August 15 Finally produced a true-size Captain Patrol robot. It's a right pain working at this reduced size. Everything has to be squeezed into no space at all. The motor is the little N20. I found a version with a dual shaft that made life easier, though the axle was marginally too wide I've copied colour schemes that I've seen in various old advertisements and one is based on the box art. I tried to keep the workings accessible for future maintenance. Great fun after a long lay off.

zebedee Posted August 15 Posted August 15 Great job Brian, love all the different colours think the blue and yellow version is my favourite.
6Stelab9 Posted August 17 Posted August 17 Excellent job Brian. The result is impressive for such small robots.
Brian.. Posted August 18 Posted August 18 Finally: When Imai went bust the moulds were acquired by Bandai. They released the Space Patrol robot as The Guardman Robot. It's surprising what a a difference a few decals make:
