GONK!

This is the GNK Droid from the Lars Homestead as seen in A New Hope. It's only in the movie for like 3 seconds, but it's unique from other GNK Power Droids in the movies.

I modeled it for my 6" scale Lars Homestead Diorama. This is a multi-part print designed to be super-glued together.

This was designed to be printed on a resin printer using tough or ABS-Like resin.

Several parts are very fragile and require care when slicing. The Sensors have a thin cable between the 2 side boxes and the Light has a short thin tube that connects to a hole in the top of the tank. These printed fine on my Anycubic Photon Mono X 6K.

Assembling the droid should be pretty self explanatory for the glue-on parts, There is a recess on the back for the tank. Superglue that first, then superglue the Light into the square hole at the back of the top shell. It has a small bit that fits into the hole on the top of the tank. There are 2 smaller square holes at the front of the top shell for supergluing the Sensors and then the top shell slides into the bottom with, you guessed it, some superglue!

The legs require some explanation. There are 3 pairs of legs, standing straight, stepping forward and stepping backwards. They are designed to be mixed and matched, but the legs are asymmetrical and have a left and right for each pair. Cut a 3mm diameter acrylic or plastic rod to 30mm in length. First, slide a left leg and a right leg on the rod, and then you insert the leg assembly through the large square hole in the Bottom shell to fit snugly into 2 C-Channels. Some twisting may be required to get the leg assembly into proper position. You can glue them in, but with the three droids I printed, after paint, they are snug enough to hold the body either straight or leaned forward or backward without glue.

Leg pairing options:
Left Step Forward : Right Step Backward
Left Step Forward : Right Straight
Left Straight : Right Step Backward
Left Straight : Right Step forward
Left Straight : Right Straight
Left Step Backward : Right Step Forward
Left Step Backward : Right Straight

You shouldn't use both forward or both backward legs together, as your GNK will stop GONKing.

Additionally, there are small holes in the outer side of the foot and 2 holes in the top of each leg. This allows for supergluing a bit of electrical wire into the legs to simulate the hoses. You may have to drill out the foot holes with a rat tail file or a 1mm pin vice bit. See the pics for a clear view of this.
