I genuinely like this guy. His smile really shows how happy he is.
Try casting the grapnel hook in aluminum.I like the straw design maybe add flight stabilizing fins , like a dart or rocket would have.
triplebackspace remember it needs to flip over to grapple the fins would stop it from doing that
Fionn O' Flaherty I don't think the straw design flips . It looks like the straw design tethers the back.
triplebackspace did you get that idea from grant Thompson?
Will Ham Animates Nope just seemed to be a logical step in the progression , if you want to improve flight distance , improve aerodynamics.
triplebackspace I was thinking aluminum too. Really strong and light. The straw is my favorite too.
Was Supposed to be Spiderman. somehow. somewhere. turned into BATMAN Series.
Alter_Signa lol yep
Alter_Signa I didn’t see this comment and I commented it?!
true
Batman>Spiderman
@@gunfuego Because He's Batman!
this guy reminds me of cisco from the flash
I hear that a lot! I've never seen the show though lol, hope Cisco is a cool guy
Sufficiently Advanced He sure is!!! Huge recommend that you watch the show
Sufficiently Advanced u do look like him! he has powers!
Sufficiently Advanced Cisco is like the best character,he is sooo funny
I agree
In an apocalypse this dude would make a tank out of rubble, amazing grappling hook btw.
He is literally Cisco from The Flash
Lol
I was going to like but you are at 69 likes
I just realized he looks so similar to him lmao
YYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!!!!!
i dont understand, you are so smart, its just amazing. Build a real iron man suit in the future or something. haha keep it up bto
The wrapper is quite efficient actually. It's what a lot of real pneumatic launchers usually use since it can make very good use of the compressed air escaping the barrel. It just has the side effect that the air has to travel down the length of the barrel first before it can act on the outer projectile. You want to make it as long and low friction as possible to get the best acceleration from your air pressure. I'd use a sealed PVC pipe design that can fall away once the hook has been accelerated sufficiently. But realistically they should both give similar results at low pressures. Once you go into the really high pressures an inner 'gun' type design is much better.
*when u got strength, durability, and shooting situated*
Oh yeah, it's all coming together
Finally a cool thingy builder on youtube who like me, does crappy welds. Grind on bro, you make me feel better about myself
Haha right on man, we'll get better someday 😂
+1 Sub. you're the man
Brilliant dude! Looking forward to seeing how this progresses, been paying attention from the start. Been super interesting.
youre brilliant! keep the awesome content rolling bro i love it!
the straw wrapper style is the best when it comes to delivering the most energy possible to the projectile, you can actually get away with using really thin walls on them too, check out joerg spraves arrow pistol, might even try polycarbonate straw wrapper if you want since it will be as strong as metal and lighter
This is awesome!
AMAZING WORK! The only thing i'd recommend is some sort of "reeler" like the button you press on a measuring tape but ya know.. A LOT STRONGER!
You never fail to make me happy
This was an amazing video!
I think the straw wrapper is more reliable to get it to stick to wherever you want it to... the other one has to rotate first to be aligned properly, and we could see in the footage that it doesn't just rotate 180° and stops there but keeps rotating, so it's gonna be a 50/50 chance of it actually being correctly aligned when it's time to get a grip at something
I think that when the rope pulls back, the hook will align itself properly no matter what so it will still work. On the other hand, I feel like the spinning makes the arrow less aerodynamic, making it fly a shorter distance... Also if the hook is lighter, the wind will have more effect on it which is also a drawback... Just brainstorming here :)
Yeah, it seems like there's significant kinetic energy lost in the flipping motion. On the plus side it doesn't get windy much in Los Angeles.
I think the spinning might be beneficial for getting the hooks to catch
Maybe if you fine tune how much of the stem you replace and where the weight is, or maybe add small fins that pop out?
Don't let you memes be dreams
Thank you
Z🚬☠️👍🏼💸🕷
Lol Troll True
Lol Troll dont let your dreams be memes
Lol Troll LOL
Loving the portal music at the end.
You deserve hella more subscribers honestly , you're great mate
BTW your pursuits are amazing Alan, keep it up! And also bring more of this type of inventing back to TV!
Spider-Dude, Spider-Dude. I'm a real huge fan, Spider-Dude.
similar as a tool 3D maneuver gear in attack on the Titan / Shigeki no kyojin
i love your creations you have a bright future dude
I like the straw one, like you said more elegant and just going straight for the target instead of having to flip around and all.
Very impressive. But can you make a working 3 Dimensional Maneuver Gear?
Well, I never thought I'd try making Spider-Man web shooters but it was so requested that I finally decided to give it a shot. 3DMG isn't something I'm planning to make, but people keep asking for it...
Sufficiently Advanced *misses shot, crashes in to building*
have fun testing that one
It took an entire government & decades to make that technology in the show. Now this TH-camr is gonna do it in a video.
Safir yeah but based on their weapons and the style of the buildings the show takes place in the mid-1400’s. We have better tech now and it will be much easier to make these kind of things
Test it out at an Airport next. That'll be fun.
The main benefit of the over the barrel version is that it will fly a lot more true and if you make it a tighter fit it will use the pressure a lot more efficiently
I like the light furze one (btw I have been watching your channel since the very beginning and I have to say, your work is amazing. You inspire me to create things and keep up the good work!👍)
Humans are getting places in life
So clever and i aspire to be like you
dang I wish I could buy this. this is incredible
I love your videos and particularly in this one I liked how you explained a lot of stuff in this video.
could you try and make it fire with a electromagnet railgun inspired mechanism
don't know whybut I couyuld have sworn I saw you on Americas got talent in the backstage area
Jellal Fernandess same I thought I heard him talking about one of his inventions
Mhm
he was on mythbusters " the search"
Haha yeah I was there! I put the Cerebro helmet on Howie but it didn't really work on him, so they only aired about a second of me in the backstage area. There's also footage somewhere of Tyra getting...handsy with me but I unfortunately don't have it! LOL
Sufficiently Advanced ah that sucks that would be great to see did you advance to the next stage?
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR SO LONG
This channel is gold
Can we have a collab between you and Colin Furze ? It would be incredible.
Watch the slingshot channels airgun videos ... that'll be helpfull
Ich ficke Alphabet I'm not sure he needs 4000 psi and Mach 1.5 grappling hooks lmao
The point is the aerodynamic design, I think. Obviously he could scale down the psi to a more appropriate level.
Yup, the steampunk pistol was a major source of inspiration for this launcher, but Joerg uses a 1/2" valve which is just a bit too clunky for my arm.
arnt you a mythbuster?
Stephen Shelcusky No, he was in the competition to be on the show but lost.
He should certainly be on there, but the producers made several shitty mistakes during the process IMO
I grew up in Westchester so watching you film in culver city not far from my childhood house was trippy
i like the third (straw wrapper) design since it has the factor of an additional boost when the preasure captured inside the tube of the hook releases and acts like a little booster. and dont take me by word since it is only fast thinking
Is it unfeasible to use lightweight alloys? Like magnesium or aluminium alloys?
Guess you would have to make a larger hook if you used those :/
Lukegear I don't see why he wouldn't be able to use just 6061
Yes! It has some quite decent mechanical properties. I really think he should try it out
Lukegear the problem with light weight metals like aluminum is that it might not be able to hold his weight if he made it the same size as the steel. He would have to compensate greatly for how weak and malleable the metal is, so in the end it might end up weighing more than just the regular steel
JJantson I think aluminum would be more then strong enough, but you're right maybe @SufficientlyAdvanced should experiment to see if it would work
Can't weld aluminum
"Part Number" wait wat

Dein Kanal ist erstaunlich! Jedes einzelne Video, das ich von den Sachen weggeblasen werde, die du tust!
Man your sick! your going places!
You got the Hookshot!
but the longshot is required to beat the water temple
Is that giant piece of wood supposed to be plank from
Ed Edd N Eddy?
SANHII G I hope so
I hope Plank makes it into Smash Bros Ultimate
I've been watching this "series" if u can call it that but I can't wait until it works and looks amazing great job
I love when he makes new things
Looks like it's just too heavy to get any significant distance. In the long rung you gotta ask yourself, why make a grappling gun if you could throw the hook way further than the gun can shoot?
Well both of the collin furzz designs spin and lose energy in flight so the straw rapper should be the best
Yeah, it definitely seems like any kinetic energy gains from reducing the mass are lost in the flipping motion...
Its Colin Furze, do you not know who he is? Amazing inventor, better channel id say, check him out
th-cam.com/users/colinfurzevideos?flow=grid&sort=p&view=0
his whole channel jesus amazing
I love your videos, keep it up
WEB FLUID SERUM (I DID NOT MAKE IT IN ANY WAY)
spirit gum with sylica
hydrolized polyvinyl alcohol
water-purified
magnesium oxide
graphene^
xantham gum, or guar whatever
heating coils
combined then like agitated by getting shot through bristles
and shot through a sort of flat thimble spinneret with the holes all pointing in a inward direction so it makes a binded thread.
literally 60$ for the chemicals on amazon (in total btw)
1:45 just like society 😃
I like the straw wrapper. While it is pretty heavy I think by increasing the PSI you could get some pretty good results!
Jeez man, you're a genius.
firstly
YerBoiBob YOU DID IT!
Yes you are
Notification squad what up
this is so dope!
Love the Portal music!

I like the straw wrapper. It just seems so much simpler.
Again a great Video
best person I ever watched on youtube
I like the straw design because it looks more like a traditional grappling hook make it all out of acrylic and put for tips and not to
You deserve to be a mythbuster
You are amazing, keep it up
You mentioned that you used that specific solenoid because it has that specific size of fittings. You could try possibly using one with larger fittings, then mounting them to your back and using heavy duty tubing to carry the air to your arms. that way you can lessen the load on your hands, reduce bulk, and possibly have more space for a larger grappling hook.
epic gun dude
I'm in a good mood so I'm liking this video
Use titanium for the hook. It's strong as steel about half of the weight. A few small pieces won't cost much and you can get a shop to weld it for you since it's a bit tricky to work with if you're not an experienced welder.
Increasing air pressure will work too, but I'd also work on the aerodynamics of the hook itself since that can also help with distance.
If you really wanted to go crazy, you could make a much smaller hook mechanism that expands the hooks out of a cylindrical container when it leaves the barrel using springs on the inside of the container to push the hooks out when it ejects. It would be a bit more compact and aerodynamic. Plus, it would look really cool if it was executed correctly.
ASCO valves are also great for water. We use them all the time for that at work.
They're good valves, though the one I used is air only.
The main limiting factor probably isn't the weight of the grappling hook, but the weight and drag created by the rope. So actually making the grappling hook weight more compared to the rope may result in longer flight. But ideally make the rope thinner.
To check if this is true - try the hook with and without rope.
Also another way to make it better without changing the power is to make the acceleration last longer - for example by lengthening the barrel.
I love the portal 2 music in the background at about 5 minutes
i wanna make a batman grappling hook gun irl and i needed to find a video to understand the basics and this helped a lot and i think if i go along with this idea i will use the straw hook
I subbed to you a while ago, but I never realized that I've also been watching you on mythbusters! XD
Wrapping teflon tape around the straw wrapper gun barrel or the Furze rod, you could make a tighter seal around the chamber barrel.
Depending on how tight of a fit the straw wrapper style is you could probably reduce a lot of weight off of it as well. you only need a minor amount of material to hold your weight and the rest could be shaved a way you might be able to cut a pattern into it that still in part strength but lightens it up or leave two or three strong struts that run the full length with a ring at the bottom and then fill in the rest with something it still captures the air....
I LOVE YOUR VIDS I SUBBED AND TURNED ON THE BELL!!! BEST TH-camR EVER!!!!
I like the straw wrapper design. It looks cooler, and when you fired it, it looked the most like Spidey's web. Ultimately, I'd choose whatever design is easiest to change cartridges mid web sling. If you run out of web fluid, you're gonna have a bad time.
I've been loving where your current project has been going so far! Though I'm only 14 with very little knowledge in mechanics and PSI and stuff like that, I do know how to make PREDICTIONS AND HYPOTHESIS! (Thank you Mrs.Harsh, My 8th grade Physical science teacher)
So, seeing the Colin Furze hook, it performed at much the same rate as the Colin Furze Lite, with the Colin Furze Lite giving that nice flip around that the normal Colin Furze hook might struggle with at times. So I'll mark out the Colin Furze hook. Now, when comparing the Colin Furze Lite to the Straw-wrapper hook, I noted that the Straw-wrapper hook did weigh more, and it would DEFINITELY hurt to have that come flying at your face! But nonetheless, the weight will cause it to arc much more strongly than the Colin Furze Lite. So I can mark out the Straw-wrapper hook. That leaves the Colin Furze Lite! I apologize if I took up so much time trying to tell you what my opinion is!
this looks straight outta bioshock, nice job.
I like the straw wrapper design but you might try using some rubber sealing rings to maximize pressure on the rod. I prefer this design since it allows for more power behind the shot. We cant have spidy falling short because he missed by 1-2 feet.
u need one that is like a spike in the barrel then when it leaves it has 3 or 4 hook like parts that when it goes through something it expands to look its self like a one way valve. kind of like grappling gun from cars 2 in the opening scene (i am not a fan of the Disney cars movies I'm just using it as a reference) this plus the extra pressure and you have built the ultimate grappling gun
Amazing
I think the Colin Furze design is more likely to wrap around itself after getting over a target. Probably be a good idea to test which one, when launched, is the best at "sticking".
The dauphin noise music was unique and interesting
I like the acrylics light
You got this
Although it'll bump up the price significantly and be harder to weld, titanium might be a good option for the hook due to it's similar tensile strength compared to steel and it's lower density.
Wow so cool
he finally did it
I like the straw wrapper and you could make it out of aluminum or titanium to save on weight.
I like the "straw wrapper" hook more because unlike the "Colin Furze" hook you don't have to rely on it doing the same perfect 180 degree flip at various distances for it to grab onto it's target.
Jorge Sprave of the slingshot channel did some work with solenoids and was able to pump the psi to like 900 or something. He was using his for a crazy arrow launcher but I think his methods and materials could be useful.
I like the acrylic grappling hook better, it seems very practical
Colin furze is awesome I love to watch him do crazy things☺
I love this guy's videos! I have an idea or two for the straw wrapper hook. I was thinking maybe half steel and half pvc pipe (or something light like such.) Like a weighted arrowhead concept. Move the rope's loophole at the bottom of the steel half to still make use of the strength of the steel. And still using the arrow concept, run feathers down the pvc half. They're weak enough to keep from obstructing the hooks latching on. Also maybe have a spring mechanism wired to go off at the pull of the trigger to assist against the rope's resistance. It would increase the rope's chamber size, so maybe run it along the side instead of the under barrel and at an upwards angle. Idk. You're the walk and I'm just talk lol. I really love your work, though.
The one that you like or started talking about right the simplest one you could make the hook parts kind of like wings where they got a little lift too then
