Not so long ago in a garage not too far away... Ryan Huffman built 3 R2D2s. For Maker Faire Detroit, he disassembled one. At the faire, in one day, Ryan will build a complete R2D2. Come and see him build it: Inside the Henry Ford; Saturday only!
The dream of becoming an engineer started with this R2D2 build. For five years, he went to school after work to fulfill that dream and gained his engineering degree in 2005.
