I still think they should have deployed with at least 1 of those spicy sticks when they had them. They weren't just weapons of terror, they were weapons of cool! 😎
I don't know what's scariest, if the fact that one could use one of those hub motors to make one of these powered with around one horsepower at least, or that you don't really need to go through all the hustle of building a complicated contraption, because you could just get a grass trimmer with a metal blade... Wait; hmm... There's a model that comes with a six bladed head, guarantee of them being razor sharp... OH MY FREAKING GOD! They also come with straight up buzz saws! When did gardening got so scary! 😅
The more videos you put out, the more I'm liking this channel, I LOVE the concept of what you do, and in general I think you're a talented craftsman. Keep up the great work!!
You could throw a light flywheel on it in order to keep the wheel spinning, but the chain is causing a lot of parasitic loss for the transfer of torque, i may recommend a tensioner wheel added, along with swapping out a few parts for a shortened version of a serpentine belt for a vehicle, potentially allowing for more transfer of energy, while maintaining speed and tension
A very fun episode. Now *obviously* if you didn't care about safety this would have been electric power, because that was kind of the main thing about the Ghiza's Wheel was that it 'ground into' enemies. I think with that the effectiveness (and I imagine using an in hub motor like you'd use for an electric bike) would reduce the complexity and failure rate of the device. Still, with what you could feasibly do, it was interesting seeing such a 'device' tested.
3 seasons is crazy. Great work lately dude!! The production quality and lighting at 3:00 is not unnoticed. Also, Bloodborne is currently on its way to being fully emulated on PC, its cool to see the progress its made in only a few months.
Keep up the amazing work man, love the showing the building and start to testing here with the follow ups with Shad...Such a great collab and always love seeing the set when you make something crazy. Like the Bloodborne "sword" with you 2 coming up to the same results from different starting points. It shows that if a weapon is good you can tell even if you were not the one who made it or knows how it is supposed to be used. Kind of a seen VS blind take. Hail from the FNT Fellowship!
Thank you for the series! It gives a wonderful insight into the practicality of things which I use to bring unnecessary realism to my TTRPGs and interesting tidbits that I can spring up in a conversation against an unsespecting listener. Please do keep up this wonderful work!
OMG!!! I told you Tyranth about making this Saw Wheel Axe Thing in last episode. My source of inspiration was from other game... But still! Thank you for making this video, even if you not read my comment from last episode.
I have a feeling it would work even better if all the blades were identical and smaller, basically turn into a round saw on a stick. And I guess if an actual round saw was attached properly, you could use something like that quite safely.
You could have used springs to power it and give you the better idea of how it would be used as both hand would be there for the use of the weapon, this would limit the damage loss of control would have due to the finite power in a spring over the longer lasting battery and motor setup. Good video and I'm glad you are doing well with the channel.
Fun fact, the whirligig saw from Bloodborne could shed the "saw" part entirely and become a mace. Seems helpful when you're dealing with a weapon that might get stuck, and also makes you just slamming it into Tony without winding up somewhat lore-accurate.
If you ever revisit this weapon maybe changing the hand crank into a hand squeezer. The handle to squeeze can be at the bottom for the rear hand and the front hand can have a handle at the top that is similar to the ones weed eaters have.
To be honest there are ready made tools for this kind of thing. Take a motorized weed wacker or tree limb trimmer ( I own one and use it to cut down small-ish trees), get a larger sawblade and sharpen it so you can spin it with the hooked ends facing the target and you'd have a relatively safe and functional Gheeza's Wheel for around the same that you spent on the individual parts. All in all, not a bad performance for a weaponized bike crank weapon held together by pins and glue.
Sure, he could. But those blades were coming loose from a hand crank. Best case scenario with a chainsaw they just completely dangle becoming near useless. Worst case scenario they snap off and fly back at the user. And be it hand crank or chainsaw, machines don't like getting suddenly stopped. Which is exactly what would happen in combat.
Like other people suggested some possible upgrades to make this more "functional": - Use a brushcutter/weed eater/weed wacker for the drive chain/axle. This would be relatively light weight and less issues compared to the un-tensioned chain. - For powering it a modified low speed hand drill with grip safety toggle/trigger. - I'd be concerned with the sudden jolt if the blades did catch and the power source was trying to torque through it making it wrench from your control. So there would need to be a freewheel or something to keep this from happening. You could still use the frame and general setup you have for structure with these suggestions.
A few way to improve the design for real life would be: Using exact length chain, (even walmart and most super stores should sell bike chain repair sets that allow you to shorten your chain to an exact length.) Covering your chain with a shroud so it is protected from external damage and doesn't overspin. Shroud will keep the chain in relative shape. The blades could be attached in a more hinge like pattern, this would (theoretically) allow the blades to wiggle forward and back with the rotational force. Thus allowing them to slide off of targets that might get them stuck and stop the rotation of the wheel. Finding a way to attach an electric drill motor would be fascinating. Your crutch handle already resembles a gatling gun handle and putting a trigger on it would be magnificent. However I would suggest a battery powered one as they produce less force and I would suggest only using the drill to get the blades spinning and then when thrusting or swinging release the trigger and work only with acceleration. Lastly an arm strap at the back end might help with the unwieldiness of the weapon. Also although it looks like a polearm, maybe it is meant more to be used like a spear, with thrusting and using distance and only swinging the device as a last resort. Amazing job making the Ghiza Wheel I live it
Thank me? Nah, thank you! You're the wizard swinging Mjolnir at your own head, and making these ludicrous things!! 😁 Just the thought of this fine killer sunflower with a motor is enough to give one hypertension - the manual touch was very sensible. Thank you for season 3, I can't wait for season 4! 🌻
Making the primary gear larger for higher torque, a chain guard to help prevent kickoffs, and a heavy flywheel to help it keep momentum during strikes would be incredible.
That..was actually more effective than I thought it would be. You're a brave man testing that terrifying weapon. I'd be way too concerned about blades coming loose and flying back at me 😬 Keep up the brilliant work but stay safe!
essentially just a brushcutter is an interesting point. Other ways to take this idea is to make it longer, and counterweight it a bit. Couch it like a lance. this way you could hold it with one arm, while turning the crank.(if not just attaching gas/electric motor, and backpack fuel/battery..) or, like Brush cutters. counter weight is in the back(motor). and they are carried at the hip, with a STRAP holding the weight/pivot point over the shoulders, freeing both hands to aim.
Cool. You should have used a shoulder sling at the end to make it easier to hold it up. And maybe some walls around the bottom gear so the chain doesn't jump off.
You remind me of the Red Green show's series of wacky build skits, "if women can't find ya handsome, they should at least find ya handy". Of course, you've got both covered though, lol
In the spirit of dangerous spinney weapons, might I interest you in the Psycho's Buzz Axe from the Borderlands Series, It would be a lot lighter and smaller than this, and it could end up being easier to make, of course the best way to make the spinney bit spin would probably be a grinder or some sort of electric drill, but I think you might have fun making it
Nice video. I think you should keep it together. Hear me out. I know it's expensive, but you're going to have the coolest damn pizza cutter on the block. 😂 On a less ridiculous note, you could perhaps counteract the gyro effect by having another, much smaller but equally heavy flywheel type situation for the pommel. I know, it would have to be enclosed somehow so you don't get clothes, appendages or scenery stuck in it, make another point of failure, making it that much more complex and costly and it would not be true to the in game representations (unless I'm missing something). On the other hand, it could potentially make it a much more feasible implement of dooooooom. Not saying it would be anywhere near a sword in it's simplicity, elegance or ease of use. A pizza cutter of doom is still a pizza cutter of doom, though. Edit: Spelling and grammar derps.
well... looking at the pros and cons I figure out the "next generation" could be something like a "automatic war sythe": I one designs this one auto powered (motor or in phantasy magic) one can change the design so it can be couched underneath the arm so you can handle it right like a motor sythe. Together with the 'hook blades' you can easily disarm opponents by hitting the blade or shaft with the spinning blades
Taking into account that this weapon originates from Bloodborne, i think it makes more sense in the context of the game. Considering that most of the time you have to fight monsters who don’t use weapons, the player probably doesn’t need as much agility as when fighting against humans. So the main goal is to inflict as much devastating damage as possible in the shortest amount of time 🤔
Something I feel would have helped a lot is a tensioner, they come in a variety of types and would stop the chain from falling off which would probably have made it easier to use.
If you did have an electric motor with a very secure chain to more closely simulate the magic, how do you think the T.I.T.S. would change? (Was going to say ratings, but then realized I couldn’t pass up that opportunity.)
Overcomplicating with the chain a brushless motor directly attached to wheel would work and you would only need wires running down the shaft with a electric trimmer trigger
Have you considered using a windup system with a flat spring like on clocks, a lot of drum magazines for guns have a heavy duty spring that would give you two hands after winding up to swing
While not familiar with the weapon in game itself - what do you think of having it function more like a yo yo--- with the spinning gear on a string under tension - if Elastic, have have one string winding around the end of the weapon, and an opposite one pulling back to the base. You could still hold the frame, and force the assist hand to charge the wheel, and using the counter motion to of the opposite string under tension to reset or pull back the rotation. Think of it as a REALLY BAD FLY WHEEL.
What about a gasoline powered weed Wacker engine all the way down at the bottom end? Just a thought experiment. Second thought for this. Shoulder strap. That way you don't have to hold it with your arms. It's cool to watch and about as practical as a mall ninja weapon. Great content as always!
Looks like the issue is that the drive chain doesnt have enough tension in it so it slips off like that constantly. Could also be mitigated with some guides near both sprockets. Also a smaller main sprocket could potentially help it build up speed.
Great videos, love them bud. May be not your thing but have you tested the gun sword. It's a flintlock built into a knife or small sword. It's a strange weapon I found a couple months ago
I think it would be cool if you could make it spin with some sort of pump action motion. That would likely make it more usable as a weapon. Then again, it would also break and be a lot harder to fix than a simple crank.
It seemed that you were able to get it spinning by the way you hit Tony, without the chain. You could try to make a fork with a self-rotating Aluminium plate, even just a square with the edges sharpened. Then it should be scalable enough for you to find a good weight for it to still be usable.
A brushless motor from an ebike probably would have been a good option to power the wheel without relying on a chain. The battery would make a decent counterweight as well. It would still be obscenely heavy and a lot more expensive of course.
if he had more mechanical know-how, there could be some sort of ratchet spinning gearbox with a tongue or lever extending to the grip to squeeze and catch the bike gear and "rev" with each depression. also, a c curved sheet of metal at that middle hand grip of the crutch to act as a blade guard.
I think I'd just have gone for a pull cord to set the flywheel going by hand, could get fancy with one way freewheeling, self retracting pull cord and the like but it just adds complexity and unnecessary weight IMO. And then if confident enough use a motor on the ground to get more vroom - I expect it would be rather more effective and much harder to use if that wheel was really spinning with some gusto - all that fighting the gyro to get on target. That said good effort and fun testing of a daft idea. I can't think of a target those relatively short blades spinning like that would really be better on than just putting all that weight into a two handed axe. I guess maybe something huge like a whale you might find it easier to just let the circular saw element do its job once you hit the target than actually have to land more than one swing in much the same place to gain deeper penetration.
An engineering flaw I see with this is that you have no supporting ability with the hand on the bicycle crank, a piston type pump crank ( like a tube that slides back and forth over the staff handle) would be more efficient and supportive while using it.
About that intimidation factor - I think a chainsaw would intimidate me more. I would be a lot more scared than if someone runs at me with a sword, because I wouldn't be familiar with the capabilities of this weapon.
It reminded me of a gas powered weed eater with those aftermarket metal blades attached. Those blades are only maybe three inches long but are still very dangerous, with your knives attached it would probably be a Geneva Checklist violation.
hello sir. may i make a suggestion where it comes to your chain issue? you could use a spring loaded tensioner to help with derailments. love what you are doing. keep it up .
Imagine Tyranth having funding..... Just imagine integrating a saw into Ghizas wheel as a driving mechanism for the chain, add some stuff to stabelize the whole thing, maybe cover up the chain so it isn't a weak point and voila: You don't have to worry about it being unweildy without having to power it by hand and instead being able to swing it properly with both hands
Ghiza's Wheel makes sense if you think of it in context of what it was meant to be used for, it's not a weapon its meant as a scary and painful thing to get confessions from people through torture.
So, I think what you really ought to do is combine the Arlong sword with this, and mount a series of Arlong sword teeth on a hefty chain that runs around two sprockets, which you should definitely power by a high-speed electric motor. Then test it via remote activation from a mile away behind a blast shield and at least 5 miles from any other people, because fuck wielding that monstrosity, or being anywhere nearby if the teeth fly off.

An electric motor inside the frame and the bike chain too would made this thing absolutely terrifying.
I think it would be cool if you could make it spin with some sort of pump action motion. That would likely make it more usable as a weapon. Then again, it would also break and be a lot harder to fix than a simple crank.
It needs that little gear on the spring lever that's one a mountain bike to keep the chain taught when the blade is spinning and you're striking.
Off road unicycle without a seat.
GIVE IT A MILLION VIEWS
Also emphasizing the danger of it and then spinning it without face/eye protection is wild!
It seemed that you were able to get it spinning by the way you hit Tony, without the chain. You could try to make a fork with a self-rotating Aluminium plate, even just a square with the edges sharpened. Then it should be scalable enough for you to find a good weight for it to still be usable.
Or, basically a free-spinning circular saw blade, though it would tend to get stuck.
With a game full of inspired weapon designs, you picked the most human option to create IRL
A brushless motor from an ebike probably would have been a good option to power the wheel without relying on a chain. The battery would make a decent counterweight as well. It would still be obscenely heavy and a lot more expensive of course.
It’s a worse version of a giant pizza cutter or Krieg’s Buzzsaw axe club from borderlands.
if he had more mechanical know-how, there could be some sort of ratchet spinning gearbox with a tongue or lever extending to the grip to squeeze and catch the bike gear and "rev" with each depression. also, a c curved sheet of metal at that middle hand grip of the crutch to act as a blade guard.
I think I'd just have gone for a pull cord to set the flywheel going by hand, could get fancy with one way freewheeling, self retracting pull cord and the like but it just adds complexity and unnecessary weight IMO. And then if confident enough use a motor on the ground to get more vroom - I expect it would be rather more effective and much harder to use if that wheel was really spinning with some gusto - all that fighting the gyro to get on target.
That said good effort and fun testing of a daft idea. I can't think of a target those relatively short blades spinning like that would really be better on than just putting all that weight into a two handed axe. I guess maybe something huge like a whale you might find it easier to just let the circular saw element do its job once you hit the target than actually have to land more than one swing in much the same place to gain deeper penetration.
Brush cutter, but more dangerous for the user.
An engineering flaw I see with this is that you have no supporting ability with the hand on the bicycle crank, a piston type pump crank ( like a tube that slides back and forth over the staff handle) would be more efficient and supportive while using it.
Tyranth: this is fucking dangerous. Ididathing: hold my apron, bro.
About that intimidation factor - I think a chainsaw would intimidate me more.
I would be a lot more scared than if someone runs at me with a sword, because I wouldn't be familiar with the capabilities of this weapon.
That is a clasic British Top Gear opening.
It reminded me of a gas powered weed eater with those aftermarket metal blades attached. Those blades are only maybe three inches long but are still very dangerous, with your knives attached it would probably be a Geneva Checklist violation.
hello sir. may i make a suggestion where it comes to your chain issue? you could use a spring loaded tensioner to help with derailments. love what you are doing. keep it up .
Imagine Tyranth having funding..... Just imagine integrating a saw into Ghizas wheel as a driving mechanism for the chain, add some stuff to stabelize the whole thing, maybe cover up the chain so it isn't a weak point and voila: You don't have to worry about it being unweildy without having to power it by hand and instead being able to swing it properly with both hands
Ghiza's Wheel makes sense if you think of it in context of what it was meant to be used for, it's not a weapon its meant as a scary and painful thing to get confessions from people through torture.
Damn that's beastly, should've just powered it with magic tho, would help with the weight 😂
So, I think what you really ought to do is combine the Arlong sword with this, and mount a series of Arlong sword teeth on a hefty chain that runs around two sprockets, which you should definitely power by a high-speed electric motor.
Then test it via remote activation from a mile away behind a blast shield and at least 5 miles from any other people, because fuck wielding that monstrosity, or being anywhere nearby if the teeth fly off.
Bat axe.
Ask Shad. He'll know what I mean. You'll hate it as much as I do.
"You had my curiosity now my attencion!"
~Myazaki.~
Hopefully Tyranth adds a chain tension wheel like a bicycle before the Shad test.
I want to see Tyranth make a line of culinary tools. LOL!
