I finished the excavator at last! This thing is lots of fun and very fragile. I, again, went too far and this thing is too big for this kind of design. I recon I could try a different design using the blocks to make an excavator at this scale that doesn't "autodisintegrate".
The choice of using servos was on one side poorly made because they lack power and speed and in the other side poorly made because there's no feedback position so any minor distraction makes the thing implode. If I were to try again something similar I would probably use linear actuators (like the ones used in beds) and would wire endstops to stop the thing form harming itself.
I broke a few screws here and there but the screws are quite reliable even though the printing orientation is not the best.

It would be really cool if you had a public live cam overhead of your printer. It seems your printer probably never stops! I'd like to know how long it took to print all the parts for the tracks... that's a lot of pieces!
Chuckling at the absolutely overpowered metal teeth. Ready to tear through hard packed earth and stone - scooping sand. 😁 Reminds me of the butter robot in Rick and Morty, haha! I'm just continually amazed at how fantastically your creations are engineered though. That fastener system alone is a multi-million dollar system. You are a creative mastermind!
Yeah, that won't be the weak point by miles 😂
Reminds me of the little rideable backhoes on playgrounds from when I was a kid
@@Haagimus reminds me of the good ol’ days
It's awesome that you not only created a building system, but also custom tools as needed to assemble it all. ❤
and in no time he’ll be in the military building plastic tanks 😂
Incredible as usual! And frightening to think that those are the "mini" versions of your blocks, haha! Can't wait for the gokart.
Yeah, I better don't give it a second thought 😅. Thanks!!
You know I think the only thing missing from his workshop now is his own 3D filament production or recycling system. It probably wouldn't be practical but it would be cool to see how Ivan would put something like that together
11:38 "It will take just a second" lol 🤣 The hours and hour you must have put into this chapter are amazing. Then you condense it down to a 18 minute video.
I admire the countless hours that go into your videos. Fantastic!!!
You should do a video on your recycling, and show us how you re-use all the excess plastic from your prints you don't use.
Man, you make this look so easy! I keep thinking "Man, I could do that!", then I take a second to consider the engineering and design that goes into a project like this. Seriously impressive!
For me it's the cost.
30 kg of petg is around 12usd x 30kg =360 usd.
AFTER 4 YEARS OF PRINTING THIS BEAUTIFUL DIGGER IS THE RESULT. BEAUTIFUL
I strongly recommend trying to figure out how to make a slip-ring, so the top of the excavator can go all the way around. Otherwise - really cool!
I have one around here but I need to figure where to stop or projects would take forever 😅 Thanks!!
@@ivanmirandawastaken That's fair!
Nowadays, this is the most funny stuff on TH-cam, period. Congratulations Iván!
You should make a video showing all the fails and mishaps of your projects to show the prototyping process, I think it would be neat.
8:00 I like that support system alot! well done Ivan
Thanks!
Ok, the tabbed "brim" like that, is an amazing idea. Something I will start trying out for my projects. :)
Completely bonkers and ridiculously fun! Definitely need bigger continuous servos for the drive train, and a coarser acme thread for the bucket arm linear actuators to speed up movement there. Way too much fun and can't wait to see the go-cart. Thanks for sharing!
It is amazing to see you progress over the years and especially the the fact that your designs are modular right now.
I guess it also speeds up the process of designing the mechanisms and you can always upgrade existing projects.
Great work as always!!
The amount of detail you put into these builds is really awesome, you made a screw driver to screw in the hardware you made, that is pretty great.
He made a custom funnel that integrates into the system... It's kinda insane.
@@CDRaff I noticed that as well.
With the ever increasing weight of projects it might be fun to design a hoist to lift and lower. I was thinking 2 ladders for the sides. Maybe on wheels so you won't need to move the table. Strong bar across the top, and a pulley system or manual hoist for lifting and lowering. Also, thick straps of course. Love to see what you come up with next.
this dudes like the final boss for 3d printing
this channel is quickly becoming my favourite channel., este canal esta convirtiendose rapidamente en mi canal favorito,, hacelos en español tambien ivan!,, saludos desde la patagonia argentina.!
Gracias, saludos!
Ivan, Build a a filament/print recycler people can make for under 400 - 500$ and youd be my hero. You already are my hero when it comes to large format printers though no doubt
Ivan, you are an absolutely mad genius and I am here for every second of it!
Ideas for a future project:
1. build a crane 🏗️ to lift projects off the work bench.
2. Build a workbench that can be lowered closer to the floor.
one of the best, most inspiring things about your videos is... the fact that you almost always smile / laugh when things blow up!! I'm learning from you, its all in good fun in the end! ;)
Can we see the whole filament wall some time? I kinda want to die from envy.
Your awesome, I have been interested in this 3-D printing for years. My wife bought me one for Christmas. And I'm learning so much. Your the man!!
That is so crazy.
An RC servo can drive the machine around.
miranda took 3d printing at home to another level :D
Bravo! My only suggestion would be to use some silicone tape or Loctite to prevent your screw drop out issue. And perhaps a more powerful DC motor!
Ivan: let's reinvent lego and make it cooler.
The world: that is impossible
Ivan: hold my beer...
Mwhahahaha!!!
I'm not sure if you've thought about it (I'm sure you have) but that building system is INCREDIBLE.. you could make a ton of money selling that to the right toy company
Nice, Ive been designing, 3d printing and building RC excavators for many years, the size of this is incredible. Love seeing your crazy videos man.
I dig this build
Thanks!
wow
I also print in 3d but here we are at another level! BRAVO
You are mad on a totaly different level… 😂 I love it!!
its like a 3d printed Erecter set and i am here for it
Ivan has the coolest toys even if they explode a little sometimes.
I’ve been watching your channel for a while! You are awesome! Love your designs and creativity… very inspiring.
Can’t wait to see the full skate model you use to dig a pool in your backyard 🤣❤
I think Ivan is the only one who orders filament in ton units and not in kilos like all of us.
someone get this man a pellet extruder!
Thats such a cool mounting system the tools only make it better!
I love watching your videos and all your ingenious ideas come to fruition! I even ĺove your problem solving for reaching the screws with your short and extra long screwdrivers . Thanks Ivan
Awesome. Loved this project!
Super awesome and impressive! It seems like everything-red is your thing, but this would look infinitely better if you mixed in a second color like black or gray for some classes of components. At a minimum, all screws could be in the highlight color. And maybe something obscure like all exactly-4-length joiner pieces or something like that. It would not only look better, it would *really* help the features of the engineering standout.
For the loose parts, you could try tapering the threaded holes narrower at the bottom, so you get tighter friction/pressure on the last turn. A ridiculous alternative (and you seem like you're into ridiculous), is that you could make the equivalent of lock washer out of TPU - a thin, low-infill ring that compresses under the screw head.
This is a really slick building system you have designed for this build
The amount of PLA used in this project makes me uncomfortable
Thank you Polymaker! :)
I hope that you will be selling the Miranda Block system somewhere in future, it is very impressive!
It’s in my store! The link is in the description 😉

Okay the video is working on for this week now seems silly after seeing this 😂🤣 amazing project 🤘🤯
Why??? 😂 can't wait to see it 😉 👊👊👊
somehow every video is more impressive than the last. amazing
This is an awesome project!
Thanks!!
it's awesome how there are a certain set of pieces
like the screws, blocks, and plates
which can all be assembled to create stuff like this
along with some specialized pieces like the wheel sprockets and gears
the threaded screw heads are also genius
and it all goes together so well
along with the fact that you can custom size all the pieces and print them out
also the different length screwdrivers and holes through both sides of the blocks allows for easy access
since you can put a screwdriver straight though
little quirks like that
really well designed system
I just absolutely love it
incredibly creative approach to building 3d printed projects
I love how the system so overengineered so that the build itself can just be flying by the seat of your pants.
I would love to see Ivan rebuild the tank out of these Miranda Blocks for some reason.
That would be quite an undertaking
I wonder how much heavier it would end up...
I'd bet 3x at least unless Ivan designs some thin sheet parts to make most of the structure solid - probably for versatility and lightness something like 2x3 and 3x5 ratio triangles with just holes along the edges and a few fixed beams across the thin middle parts. Even then I suspect it would not be really practical as that thing is already so heavy and it is all only made in PLA.
@@ivanmirandawastaken That it would be.
I'm pretty sure I saw them but Ivan didn't mention them, so I will:
*SPACERS* !
The provider of red filament is the happiest person on earth😃
what you need as the last piece for this is like a wiper cntact, so you can turn around infinitly
Awesome project. That ringing around 11:00 is quite pronounced, but I'm sure you need to print fast for something this enormous!
Yeah, a part with ringing is better than no part at all. Thanks!
Very nice. Looking forward to the kart now.
first thought: what a waste of plastic
second thought: WOWW, so cool!!
Very impressive & big project ! You are a great engineer!
I admire your work so much. Wow!!!
Looks like youve got a lot of experience making tank tracks
Your new construction system is a keeper I think.
It would be interesting to see how expensive it is to get some critical parts, like the screws, injection molded for extra strength.
If the spool supplier ever does a trade show, surely miranda's creation(s) should be there ...
Amazing work Ivan, keep it up!!
You need to add little TPU pieces on the tracks to increase friction. Actual Lego tracked vehicles have it as well.
Ivan I gotta let you know something man, the lack of a cup holder and truck balls is really bringing the vibe down, WHERES THE HORN gotta have a squeaky toy dangit
Lol the 3D-printed screwdriver very innovative dude
On second thought, it's not too surprising that parts keep falling off, since single screws are easy to get to back out, with rotation or even just vibration forces... maybe some sort of thread-locker (glue is probably the wrong tool here, lock wire maybe?) would be a good idea for the go-kart
Or some kind of splitpen to lock the bolts.
Would stepper motors be better for driving the treads? I guess servos don't require the additional control boards and they might have more torque.
For removing the screws at 8:00 I wonder if the tabs could be redesigned so a single swipe of a blade could release one side of an entire row. That would be faster than individually removing each screw.
hey i may have an idea on how to make the 3d printed parts even stronger but it will need testing.
all you need to do is cover it in sand or salt then place it in a mini oven get it to the temp where it just starts to melt then let it cool. that should make the part solid.
could you give it a try and see if it helps your builds rigidity? it could maybe even help you save on the filament by making smaller but stronger parts and could help with the treads breaking like on the tank.
can you imagine if he started seling miranda blocks kits? like adult legos
How many hours did this take to print? And what printers did you use? Only your self-build ones or did you use other printers as well?
Your idea is very creative, I like your work very much, you can try the ds600 one-handed remote control to control this machine, it will operate very well😀
in a few months i believe Ivan might be in a 3d printed Helicopter 😂
logical next step, you need to 3d print an over head gantry to move heavy things around. ;)
would you consider building an excavator out of the full size Miranda blocks I'm absolutely addicted to rc heavy machinery models and this is just got me foaming at the mouth for more please do a full size Miranda block one and a front end loader i would be so stoked to see those projects
BIG once again :) Amazing Fun project !!
Very creative, but you have the worlds slowest backhoe, still, I love it.
Love this, although I thought it was gigantic lego lol.
Curious, would it be possible to use stepper motors instead of servos for faster amd stronger movement?
Can’t even think about how much all that filament would cost if you were not sponsored!
Hola, fantastico trabajo, molaria que pusieses cuanto tarda en imprimir las piezas por que al ser tan grandes...
love your stuff my only complaint is the red. if we could get some other colors that would be great!
super awesome
Thanks!!!
Great work Sir 👍
Tks for the amezing videos
I would like to see you make a tool for doing up all those screws as it seems hard work. Too much torque will strip the screws though
Fantastic work, Ivan! Really well done! 😃
Next step should be a metal 3d printer!!! 😬
Stay safe there with your family! 🖖😊
I love your insane projects man. Super inspiring. Never fails to spark creativity.
Amazing!!! Why PLA+ and not PETG for the projects tho?
How many kilos of filament is this thing? I'd love to make one, unfortunately I have to pay Polymaker for my filament...
Ivan, great stuff. I think your blocks need a name, though! Mostly because I'm a journo, haha.
IvanBlocks? MirandaBlocks! I don't know!
Long-term viewer, have been covering your builds for years. Love it!
I'm pretty sure he called them MirandaBlocks in a previous video.
I wonder if you could make it so that you can dig ground that hasn’t been touched by machinery or a shovel. I wonder if they can make a powerful enough to do that that would be so cool.
Make a shredder machine to shred all those failed parts and build/supports, and try making something with recycled parts, should be something accessible for you and you can make a series out of it, soled 3 videos. Shredder + filament extruder and printing new parts.
Impressive
Thanks!
Ivan has pensado en cambiar el mecanismo desde un tornillo con motor a una bomba hidraulica? Lo digo porque hace unas semanas vi una serie de video de un youtuber vietnamita que se motaba una excabadora a escala a base de tuverias de pvc, las cuales derretia con una pistola de calor y las daba forma de planchas con las que ya trabajaba. Lo fabricaba todo a mano con el pcv y pegamento, incluidas las bombas hidraulicas.
These blocks are amazing! I love that mini hammer you printed also! cute. I guess at that size its really a screwdriver. :D
