Thanks for noticein'. I thought I saw another scratch BB-8 from a styrofoam ball, but now I can't seem to find that link. Basically this is just a Sputnik style rocket in a cardstock body, but with those internal lugs, hand rolled from half of an index card, I can friction fit the bamboo skewers so they are remove-AFTER-flight. And then cook some shrimp on the barbie.
Using the bolt pattern graphics put them in a lower spot on the sphere, really close to the engine mount, so I had to glue them in ASKEW.....er. (These are the jokes folks, I'll be here all week.). So, yeah that may introduce a spin which would be cool.
After this cardstock sphere, now I am thinking of making a larger ball with different graphics... think Death Star!
