Legends. This article is part of Legends: the expanded-universe stories that Lucasfilm set apart from canon in 2014.

WED-15-77, or simply Treadwell, was a WED-15 Treadwell repair droid that was built prior to the Clone Wars, serving moisture farmer Owen Lars on the planet Tatooine for more than twenty years. Treadwell often worked with Lars's nephew, Luke Skywalker, on the moisture vaporators of the family's farm. While working on a vaporator with Skywalker one day in 0 BBY, the droid suffered a meltdown, and Skywalker, eager to meet his friend Fixer at Tosche Station near the settlement of Anchorhead, abandoned the droid in the desert. Treadwell was subsequently taken by the scavengers of the desert.
