3D model description

This is a reproduction of "NOMAD" from Star Trek (The Original Series) designed to contain an echo dot generation 4 or 5
Cabling is run up through the base and It can be illuminated with internal LEDs.

3D printing settings

Best printed at 0.2 layer resolution
No supports are needed
Use 20% infill and at least 3 layers for the walls of the two base sections for strength and cleanliness.

I printed mine with a silver silk PLA and spray pinted the grey surfaces with grey primer. This seems to match the TV version quite well

After painting, glue "Base1hollow" to "Base2" using the cone shaped protrusions and hollows to locate the pieces

The "Hat" similarly glues to the "Head" and then to the top of the "Torso"

Print the "Antenna" 3 times and glue to the locating dents in the "Head"

If required, there are "window panes" you can print to hold red green and blue squares of acetate and slide these inside the torso to colour the grills

I filled the top of the torso (above the echo dot) with cheap battery powered fairy lights with the switched battery pack in the cavity in the base. But this is of course optional.
