BBQ and Build day

Our friend Jaka has had the parts for years to get her droid, R2-AL running, but never was able to get it working right. So this Labor day weekend she came all the way from Colorado with AL so we could get him moving. (Sorry for the unturned photos) There are more photos on my facebook page!

The night before Jaka and me laid all the electrical components out, wired them together, and got a test run going.

Laying everything out on the frame. What a mess!
Hobbit hair and all, wiring everything up.

Ben says the foods is ready!

HAZZAH! Is is break time!

Sitting around eating, trading stories.
Back to work! Mo and Dave lend a hand as well with AL.Setting him on the floor after getting the legs back on.
TADA! AL is alive! Driving under his own power! Jaka is one proud mama!
All the kids want to play with AL now.

More photos on my Facebook. :)
