    Very informational, more so then the show "How it is made." Thank you for posting this.

    This is awesome! I love looking at the "guts" of machines and how they actually work.

    Very cool! I am not very interested in playing claw machines, but how they work fascinates me. I came from watching rcnightmare from a couple years back. It would be cool if you did a video kind of explaining what you do for a job, probably not involving anything super specific like company name or specific details of projects you have worked on. Just a video for us to understand what kind of cool stuff you have been up to. Keep up the cool vids!

      Hey man thanks for the support on RCN and giving Clawstruck a shot! I mostly do field NDE work now. Not very YT worthy lol.

    @3:14. thats the component i came here to learn about. i wonder what the owners of the arcade/machine set that at. i'll probably never play one of these again.

  • @thebluedragonontheskyscrap1838
    @thebluedragonontheskyscrap1838 ปีที่แล้ว

    Love the video! Btw, just have one question about the gantry mechanics. How does the pulley wheel that is connected to the same rod as one of the roller wheels not rotate with the roller wheel as the gantry moves from side to side? I'm building my own homemade claw machine and I am trying to figure out all the ins and outs of claw machine gantries so that I can make my own gantry.

  • @81joshwarren

    I have a question? If a claw machine joystick isn’t allowing me to move left or drop the claw, would I replace the joystick or buy new switches or would it be caused by something else

    Hi,
    The power supply vents are very dusty which will cause excessive heat inside it.

  • @jaxmanf
    @jaxmanf 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Love the videos! Just subscribed. It would be cool if you could do a tips video on how to position the claw well before you drop it. Whenever I play it always seems like the claw is a bit too far away or close when going for a specific prize.

    • @ClawStruck

  • @Vivalomedia
    @Vivalomedia 9 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I have a question on the pay our laser light. Can you keep putting your hand in the prize area until you reach the payout rate if you know about we're its at? And then just play ounce and automaticity get the best claw grip?

    • @PinBallReviewerRepairs
      @PinBallReviewerRepairs 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      I know this is 4 years ago but with my claw machine it has the hand guard in it and the sensor is above that hand gaurd so no triggering it.
      If I kept it in the Candy Crane location then yes you could trigger the prize sound over and over.

  • @bbuucc
    @bbuucc 2 หลายเดือนก่อน

    I have a “winner every time” machine missing claw. Does it have to have a motor on claw? It’s for candy so I’m assuming it is more like a backhoe bucket? Still can’t figure out if I need crane with a motor or not. Some are sold without motors can you help?

  • @lukemiller9521
    @lukemiller9521 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thanks for the informative video. Try adding in audio after filming to help keep the voice volume consistent.

    • @ClawStruck
      @ClawStruck  9 ปีที่แล้ว

      I know sorry! I normalized them a bit but not enough. I left the lapel mics a few states back. They are en route now. Clean audio is on the way

    Curious question, can you change the coin? Like you want the game to um turn on but not using coin. Example using cards or something.

    How do you test the terminal block on the gantry that it's getting power to close the claw??????

  • @Boontz_AK
    @Boontz_AK 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    I noticed that in one of your videos Jeremy played a game called the "Keymaster." Are you guys planning on expanding the series into other types of arcade games in the future, or are too many of them payout machines for this to really work out? Loving the Claw Science videos the most at the moment.

    • @ClawStruck
      @ClawStruck  9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      We will definitely be shooting videos on any payout machine. We want to educate everyone playing these things.

    So you seem like a expert at claw machines. im a crazy cosplayer trying to make a doctor octopus costume. Can the claw be removed and still used and moveable?
    I know this is a out of topic question but any advice or help is great.

  • @Ksilver21
    @Ksilver21 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    In previous episodes you've stated that you've been clawing for plushes for your own claw machine. Once you fill it, and you keep clawing at walmart etc..., what will you do with the extra plush/other prizes? Do you sell them? Give them away? Is there a profit to be made?

    • @ClawStruck
      @ClawStruck  9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Oh man the bottom (storage) of my machine is ready to burst with extra plush. We'll definitely be doing some giveaways to our subscribers and maybe selling the name brand stuff. No profit margins to be had.

  • @nyngenafterall4375
    @nyngenafterall4375 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Nice! One time I saw a video explenation of this, the strategy they suggested was: wait until a person wins, then star counting how many people lose before someone wins again; and then you have your pattern! So for example WIN LOSE LOSE LOSE LOSE WIN you now know you have to wait for another four people to try before you know you can win! Cool stuff! #hqsentme

    • @ClawStruck
      @ClawStruck  9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yeah that's a great way to beat payout on some machines but be warned, other machines randomize that pattern so you can't count it!

  • @TheMrporkman
    @TheMrporkman 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    2:15 A Z80 cpu, I Knew it! I'm willing to bet at least 95% of claw machines run on Z80s. Also do you have an opinion on what you call it? Skill crane? Claw machine? Something else? I see you call it a claw machine in the description but i feel like that might just be the opinion of the uploader :p

    • @ClawStruck
      @ClawStruck  9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      hahaha at a blistering 6MHz too! The industry standard is Crane Machine; referring to the gantry up top that moves and drops the claw. But we all know it's a claw machine []---E

    • @ClawStruck

      Personally I've been into them my whole life. Love 'em. But hey if almost every Walmart (Clawmart) has one, it can't be that niche!

  • @Studio9HDR
    @Studio9HDR 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    I need your help! I am one hell of a Google searcher, and for the life of me I can not find one D-Damn picture of my "SMS Skill Crane" electronics all hooked together. I have about 3 wires left that I have no idea where they go. Well some idea but I just havnt taken the time to check voltage and the manual is all in Electronic lingo, wich I could learn but I would like to have this up and going NOW!. I heard it is also the same as Big Choice and the same or close to a Grayhound. I have all manuals and can not figure it out.
    Can you help me with a picture of the board and where the wires go, if you have ticket vend wires and all that would be great so I could upgrade.
    How about a replacement board and guts, I wouldnt mind updateing so lights flashed and had a newer easier layout. Sure could use your help.
    p.s. looks like one wire is screwed to the power pack corner. {green} others are red with black lines- and I have open spots on my bridge board but dont know what voltage these need to bee hooked to. I believe there is a choice of three voltages 120, 14, +5 or something similar.
    Thank Man.
