Mr. Cogley, I am a double leg amputee with a pair of below knee prosthetic legs. If you ever decide to create a more cyberpunk version of this, and want it to be something practical, I'd absolutely volunteer to be a platform for your work! I can send you hi-res images of the legs, measurements, etc. You let me know what you need, my man. Awesome work.
you prolly dont care at all but does someone know a method to log back into an instagram account..? I somehow lost my login password. I would appreciate any tricks you can offer me!
@Remy Elliot I really appreciate your reply. I found the site thru google and im trying it out now. Takes a while so I will get back to you later with my results.
Looks really sweet. Love the vacuum forming. I think it would be really cool to have "emotions" in the gauntlent. A single quick half-second flutter of everything, say for an "irritated" emotion. Or a single slow wave for patience. Idk.I think you could do some cool animations, start the wave fast but by the time it's one rotation it's slow. or vice versa. There is fun to be had there. It's super cool and I feel like would fit perfectly in some film
You can also just cover the surface in superglue and dab it in baking soda. It will form a super strong shell. In this case, he could've printed in vase mode, then dumped some superglue inside and painted it on the inner walls, followed by baking soda. It makes stupid strong structures. I vase-printed two halves of the mirror mask from the movie Vidocq, did that, i needed no support for my vacuum molding, and i used thick acrylic (because i to make it realistic i had to do the mirror effect), wasn't joking around with it, full on oven baked it. No problem, whatsoever. I went on to make 5 more molds from that one print, finally failed on the 6th, but i'm pretty sure i screwed up and didn't heat the last sheet enough, and at 3 mm thick, i pretty much squashed the PLA mold, which fractured all over.
Awesome build, and a really dope video with it! I've been in a total design/build rut for a while, but seeing your mechanical innovation and the combination of different techniques has got me inspired again. I hope you can revisit this project again with the cyberpunk aesthetic: I could easily see this as a stylized heat vent where all the plates are in sync so they can flair out together as a "vent" or lay flat together as "armor". Kind of like Rat Thing from Snowcrash. Actually, I may do that myself in the near future. Looking forward to the next hand update!
Neat. On the filament topic, you might want to consider printing structural parts using the stiffer variants of TPU. As long as a small amount of flexing is allowed, thicker TPU parts can be nearly as ridged as PLA, but also nigh indestructible. TPU can also make for good strain relief material too.
Really interesting idea to use the infill to get the outer surface pattern during vacuum forming. Nice work taking a previous failure mode and transforming it to something useful!
You can print your forms in vase mode by turning them to the side, and then to reinforce them, you simply add plaster inside (or sand, if you're really in a hurry. This will mean you will have two overhang sides, unless you print caps for that.
PETG has become my go-to material for anything i dont want to crack or snap. forget "it prints like PLA". PETG literally shines when printed slow, hot, with a big extrusion cross section* and little to no cooling. (*= like 0.28*0,75mm at a constant 35mm/s @ 245°C with a standard 0.4mm nozzle)
Dude that is so sick it's unreal!!! That is brilliant and so so so so original hollywood has never dreampt the likes. If u did a full suit n walked around it would literally be scary even in 2021. Noone as ever even seen anything like this it's that original. Also while ur hear looking for at least one or 2 people that can write python code at an expert level for a humanoid project, and maybe an electronic engineer. If that sounds like u drop a link thx!
Impressive. I think an arm design similar to the one's Violet has in Violet Evergarden would look great without being too complex. Keep up the great work!
There was a youtuber recently who showed how to anneal 3d prints that didn't deform or change size after the process. He used finely ground salt as a refractory. It wasn't CNC kitchen, Stefan's annealing didn't work out. My guess is that they used different types of filament. PETG is the way to go though.
If you make it water proof and add more universal joints, i bet a dollar when you put it into water, it will swim. It is almost identical to the swimming legs of a mantis shrimp. How about a glove like propeller on a snake shape robot?
I really like the simple use of mechaics for this! Oh and for Zbrush I'm user/abuser so just let me know if you need tech/general help with it via your discord server (tho I just lurk)
i just found your channelt. i don't know if you experiment with this more. but with a bit of logic and a senser in the glove you can make the scales move only when you move your wrist too much
I'm no mechanic, but isn't camshaft the more appropriate term as opposed to crankshaft? The explosions in an ICU drive linear motion of the pistons which then drive the crankshaft, turning linear motion into rotational, whereas the camshaft is there to drive valves with a particular timing. The shaft in your gauntlet is driving the motion of the panels with timing dictated by the shaft. I think crankshaft would be appropriate if it worked the other way around, so instead, you pressed the scales down in order, to turn the shaft, and giving power to the motor, basically turning your hand presses into a crude electrical generator. I could be way off base, just wanted to put it out there
Hey! I really like your channel, and this looked awesome, got me thinking, if you ever watched Captain America: Civil War (I know, Marvel Movie), towards the end of the movie Iron Man deploys his missile from the Arm and your can see the gauntlet almost disassemble all its plates to reveal the missile. Have you seen it? Could this mechanism work for that? Thanks!

An awesome idea for an awesome cause! :D
Imagine a prospestic that looks like the armor from the knight in the video "praetoria " from oats studio
@Caiden Preston report pls
you prolly dont care at all but does someone know a method to log back into an instagram account..?

Pretty Impressive for a "Side Project"
That looks like bonemold armor from skyrim like seriously looks just like it
Exactly the comment I was looking for.
Dam you man of quality, you've robbed me

You should check out ‘remelting 3D printed thermoplastics (the salt method)’ by ‘free spirit 1’. he uses salt to make petg parts crazy strong.

Loved the way you used that udnerextrussion issue into a way to suck air in the vacuum form.
Astounding mate. “Side project” with tons of information and learning material. Thank you
Incredible as always ! Looks like a Monster Hunter amor set !

The crankshaft mechanism is so clever!
AMAZING! Loved this Will, thank you so much for testing out the FormBox, we can't wait to see what you make next.

With those magnets attaching the plates, you could also do more draconic, more techno, or more retro plates. Awesome!
You have no idea how much this excites me about the future of mankind.
That looks so damn cool. I wonder just how awesome a full suit built by you can look. Best of luck making things.
this a cool idea to adapt to use on a custom PC. always wanted to build a custom case with movement like this for the air vents.
This is so fucken cool. Really beautiful use of a crank shaft to get that result!
that ended up with a very organic feeling movement I love it
This is very impressive. I have a lot to learn from you to upgrade my own armor.

This could be really cool as a full costume with the same style or even a cyborg/robot looking version. Keep up the great work!

Great side project. Im never dissapointed when watching your videos. Great stuff man, im learning alot.
In the Game Destiny, there is a pair of Exotic Gauntlet called Young Ahamkara's Spine. Its so cool that you have made.
Nice it looks like something straight out of pirates of Caribbean or aqua-man maybe even the Last of us
If you make it water proof and add more universal joints, i bet a dollar when you put it into water, it will swim. It is almost identical to the swimming legs of a mantis shrimp. How about a glove like propeller on a snake shape robot?
Great work! Look beautiful and move really smooth
Looks like monster hunter world armor
This is sick!! Looks like Sladar from DotA 2!!
I really like the simple use of mechaics for this! Oh and for Zbrush I'm user/abuser so just let me know if you need tech/general help with it via your discord server (tho I just lurk)
That looks so cool. It is some what mesmerizing. Keep it up!
this kinda looks like it could be some form of sentient, living armor, quite freaky, but intriguing
Active Cooling would be sick
This fantastic! Nice work will!
Would be cool to add flex sensors to the segments and each time they move, add a sound font, kinda like screetching bone against bone.
Where did you go to find Solstheim?
i just found your channelt. i don't know if you experiment with this more. but with a bit of logic and a senser in the glove you can make the scales move only when you move your wrist too much
Make the whole suit!!! make the whole suit... make the whole suit!!!!!

I came here by mistake earlier and now I keep coming back
If you think and see it upside down, you would make it look like an engine for "rowing" on water or possible on sands. Is it possible???
imagine a full black armour of this on wn undyne the undying cosplay. It's like the armour is flowing by pure energy!
So cool. Keep up the good work!
Instant subscribe. This is so cool. I have an idea for making the files mine
Hey! I really like your channel, and this looked awesome, got me thinking, if you ever watched Captain America: Civil War (I know, Marvel Movie), towards the end of the movie Iron Man deploys his missile from the Arm and your can see the gauntlet almost disassemble all its plates to reveal the missile. Have you seen it? Could this mechanism work for that? Thanks!
AWESOME work as usual!
That's a really cool design
PETG is my favorite material!
While impressive, for a second i had a uncanny valley experience, how organic that looked.
i wanna save up for this and make a young ahamkara spine goddddamnnnnn
Keep up the work, this is inspiring
Ya zbrush is great aside from the startup, if you dont know what your doing its deffs hard to get started
Imagine a full suit holy cow
Awesome video once again 💯👌🏼
What site can I buy the potentiometers on
this is really cool, but you really shouldn't use hot glue on leather like that. Use a leather cement like Barge or Petronius Masters.
bro this is just the coolest
This is excellent!
using fusion 360 or freecad for design
Can you make a werewolf hand ?
Jeez, awesome job! :D
Fantastic!
this looks like the dragon bne gauntlets
Try plates with feathers
This reminds me of samarotts legs
Warform?
It looks very elder scrolls morrowind-esque
Interesting!
🔥
Good video
All the link from github and patreon says 404 not found. Did you delete the files or are you banned?
bro thats so cool
What is the use of this?
I hope i dont get shit for this, but whats that tablet thing he was using to draw on?
Or even dragon bone armor
Hey why dont you make a super cool fish with a camera
Your Patreon link is broken :')
Cool
bug gauntlet bug gauntlet
ZED BRUSH
woah
You should make vibrators
This makes me so uncomfortable, I need one
I want to by this hand ❤️
ok
Monster hunter cosplayers will notice
creeate Robotman easy
Is it weird that the thumbnail aroused me?
fnaf pliz
Absolutely pointless!
Man I want that
