Started Sanding New R5-D4 Utility Arms for Droid #2

I ordered a pair of resin utility arms that will be painted red from resinparts.com to go along with the red framed front panels for droid #2 when he's dressed up as R5-D4. I did the same for droid #1, but the arms aren't interchangeable for a couple of reasons, not the least of which is that the two droids use pivot points of differing diameters.

Most of the surfaces of the arms are in good shape, but there is some roughness and overfill here and there that requies some sanding.



There are some small bubble pits that will need filling.

I'll get to the filling soon enough, but first I want to prepare the pivot points.
