How's it goin' eh?

[Rickstrickland]

Hello all.
The oldie has become a newbie again. Some might know me from Astromech.net. It's nice to see some familiar names.
It has become time to make my R2 a buddy. And since I'm too fat to fit the C-3PO suit... BB-8 it is.
So I'm ready to read read read, and probably read some more. 
Looking forward to building this little guy.
Rick
