**Jawa Update**
I have the Burlap and black cloth fabric trimmed and sent off to my Alterations gal to sew together. I even brought and shown her the mannequin I made, she had a good chuckle.
That was a couple weeks ago, She said two weeks, due to her work load. I'll follow-up tomorrow to see how it is going, but I'm getting excited to see the results!
Moving on to the sound system for my Jawa. I went looking for a small low profile wired speaker to play the Jawa sounds through. I found this from Amazon for about $15.00, which also had the added benefit of coming with a small 3 foot audio extension cable!
I also needed an MP3 Player, so I grabbed this with it, also from Amazon, for about $20.00....
Not that I was terribly distraught by it, but the screen on that MP3 Player I can tell you is
NOT Color - Hahaha! Saw Gerrera would say.....
I wanted the speaker to sit somewhat close to the head and for that I grabbed my speaker and headed to Home Depot. I grabbed....
5/16 in. x 3-34 in. Eye Bolt - Due to the shape/size of the speaker, I found that it fits in it perfectly.
And here is what I came up with.....
Hopefully I can update you all this weekend with it near completion! You can download many Jawa noises/sounds via this site:
The first film in the series, Star Wars, was released on May 25, 1977, and became a worldwide pop culture phenomenon. Star Wars is an American epic space opera film series created by George Lucas. Many species of alien creatures (often humanoid) are depicted. For Star Wars humans, see Star Wars...

And using the free audio editor "
Audacity" (
Which is pretty powerful), I'll be able to make some jawa sound files for playback. The idea is to create random sounds, followed by 20-30 seconds of silence then more audio not in the same sequence. Then have this on repeat.
