Hi, I absolutely LOVE your invention and I'm trying to make a version of it myself.
But I'm trying to see how the components are put together and the mechanism works internally.
But all of your video shots are so fast and swinging back and forth from one to the next, I can't figure out the structure.
I don't mean the electric motor and how it turns the drum, that's simple - I'm talking about the design of how the rotating part moves and separates the sand inside.
I did read through your Greek forum where you discussed this design with others, but most of that was about how you actually built the structures and finish them with resin.
On the GitHub it's mostly about the electronics in the mechanical turning of the drum.
Again, I can figure out the electronics and the motor to rotate the drum and the automation myself.
What I need to understand is the structural design of the structure and how it actually cleans the sand.
Do you think you could make another video where you SLOWLY disassemble it so we can see how it's made?
Or maybe just make some simple drawings or renderings showing design of each piece the inner workings of the device? The kind of drawings you might put together when applying for a patent.
They don't need to be fancy but do you need to demonstrate the basic internal mechanics and how it operates.
Anyway, it's a beautiful invention and you've finished it gorgeously. And from what I can tell, the way you've designed it seems to work a lot better than many of the commercial products I've seen out there being sold retail for hundreds and even thousands of dollars.
(Have you thought about patenting your design? I think you should!)
Looking forward to figuring out how to make one myself! Cheers!

Thank you for the kind words.
I can make a video, but I am not sure what it is that you want to better understand. I can make it move slow and film it during the empty cycle, maybe have a camera inside the base too, would that be ok ?

nice..did you make it? where can I buy one?

[@enaon2931]

hi omidel, yes I did, I added a link in the description, the google translate works ok I think, there are some photos there, have a look if you like, I will add a video with some big cats using it in a few days, they can fit anywhere :)

I saw the link but it is only a forum in Greak not a buying link...I wish you the best..hope you come back to eucwhatch project
