Description
*** THIS IS A PROJECT IN WORK ***
This is a lift design using some of the parts from the user mascal's lift system, altered to bolt to the dome top i modified for mr baddeley's r2d2 model. Uses dowel rods as slide rods and a threaded screw to lift the devices, the core system works fine, still tweaking the lifts for the periscope and light saber, will update those as i complete them, the life scanner works as i didnt need to modify that from mascal's designs.
print the top and bottom of the lift with supports to keep the dowel rod holes clear, i suggest solid PLA+, PETG, or ABS for the screws for strength as i easily snapped one in plain PLA.

lift template.stl - make your own lift design using this and the core lift system!
lightsaber lift.stl - should be working, made it modular and included 3 sabers to swap out
(included the periscope and life scanner i used to keep you from hunting them down, periscope is parts from 3 different releases, print the lenses in something clear, i use the pie piece from the r2 dome files from mr baddeley. the life scanner i believe was made by mascal, i did make a servo adapter for it to sit on the server a little better.)
you will want 6 dowel rod sliders, screw the bottom to the dowel ends, i put in the screws and then the top, you can screw the top to the dowel rods as well. i used a thin circle of craft foam between the lift top and the dome to help prevent sliding, you could glue it in as well, but i was trying to keep my design as modular as possible. would be interested to see what others come up with to work with this system!
*I think i got everyone in the credits, if i forgot anyone it wasn't on purpose!
