Man, hand-machining all those components. You're a freakin hero.
Jairus, man, you're breaking my heart! The look on your face at the end :( We've all been there, but you can do this! Keep going! I'm in awe of your dedication to this project :)
This comment had me waiting for a catastrophic malfunction 🤔
no, he cant.
Here's how I see it: The system works and it's just one of the components (overly-stretchy string) letting you down. That's still a win in my book, keep up the great work!
Yeah, this is coming along amazingly. Your standards are honestly way too high.
Hey, you could always use Kevlar string, that's what they use in compound bow strings so that they don't stretch! Love the content! Please keep up the great work!
That or Dyneema, I’d recommend the Ironwire from Lawson Equipment. It has a polyester shell to protect the Dyneema core from abrasion, is almost as thin as what is being used here, and has a tensile strength of 650lbs!
Exactly what I was thinking!
Your dedication to this project deserves a huge round of applause and up-votes. You're basically building something that 50 years ahead of it's time and from a fictional world, that's no small feat.
Even though things aren't going as planned, this is one of my favorite projects. Keep up the great work and I'll be looking forward to the next one.
The power drill against the belt sander is the most "if it's stupid and it works, it's not stupid" method I've seen in a long time.
I know people who use that to sharpen tungsten on a bench grinder.
The amount of time, patience and dedication to this project that I’ve seen over the series so far is just inspiring man like holy cow! Fricking amazing stuff Jairus 😁
You are the most hardworking UA-camr that I'm aware of, please take a BIG vacation when this is done. You've more than earned it!
Hey bro!! Before you try any major modification, chuck some small pulleys with little bearings in them on the 2 bolts that you wrap the cord around at 9:25, those screws will be creating so much resistance, and I wouldn't be surprised if chucking a tiny bearing lined pulley in there on each would fix this!!
This is probably the most impressive engineering and designing I’ve ever scene anyone do alone on UA-cam! Everyone else takes shortcuts but you are actually making it as close to the game as possible even though it’s so much harder to work through. You are absolutely amazing. You are actually Tony Stark. Keep it up man, we are all cheering you on! ❤️
I have faith in the success of this project! That was so great to see them moving after so much work put into this blade!
I have been loving the new "weekly video regardless of progress" format a lot!
You are a very talented maker. Your thumb driven Allen key tech is top notch. Lol but seriously your skills are supreme and your projects are tough. You’ll never have to worry about someone one upping you. I can’t wait for next video.
This guy is doing the things we all want to do. He is just determined enough to make it work.
I know it’s a lot of work but I really like how compact everything is! Great work
Here’s to the hardest working man on UA-cam, I know that you will defeat the mantis blades
I'm so happy this is coming together
If you need a weld strength bond and can't weld the parts Loctite has an excellent series of "welding" epoxy's and adhesives plus there is also brazing
The tower of beans that appears in the background of Jairus's workspace halfway through the video is an indication of the level of insanity this project has brought him to. (I think)
This is such a crazy project and the fact that you are trying to keep it so close to detail is insane. You’re doing amazing jairus.
Preem work choom. Keep it up!
V and Panam forever.
This project is extremely hard, but that's what makes the vids so interesting! I barely have 5% of your maker skills, I'll never be able to even come close to this level of complexity, but I've watched every video with great interest and even learned a couple tricks. Don't give up, it's a good one!
(Plus remember - the vids are used to document the process, so from this point of view, the more process - the better! :)
You are becoming a Master Machinist. your time and efforts are not wasted no matter the outcome of this project, keep making content and I'll keep watching it.
Jairus, this is your Master-piece! You got this!
literally the best thing to come out of that game
It’s definitely a win! Keep going man you got this! The buster sword was mad difficult in the beginning and you perfected it! Imagine how crazy this is gonna turn out in the end.
Maybe a spring assist just to start it might be what you need. Bonus: it shouldn't be too hard to install
The second coolest thing about your channel is seeing how you overcome problems with custom stuff. Like I would have had no clue how to make your own spacers had you not shown that bit
Progress!
Maybe start visualizing the compromise target. I haven't seen the movie/game this is based on. But, I would expect the one wielding the blades to swing their arms to facilitate the extension and retraction. Can you assist deployment, in that way? Whatever the weaknesses may by, in the end, you've just got to make a video montage of it working under whatever idealized circumstances necessary. You can always revisit this beast, later. Don't be afraid to be happy with "good enough." Get stoked. You've done a pretty amazing thing.
Getting there! This project is absolutely amazing. Keep up the great work!
Dude you have single handedly created a fictional item you have made a fictional thing real you have already won man it's amazing your dedication and craftsmanship has created something that doesn't exist cut yourself some slack that's a win we have enjoyed all the videos being there for the ups and downs of this thing and we still think your amazing because you are you made the fictional real time and time again be proud smile you got this.
Hell ya! This is so fkn AWSOME!!
Whoo! It lives! I'm excited to see the next update, success or failure. I think it's amazing all of the by hand fabrication you've had to do for the project, and that's a major win in my opinion.
Man, it's almost finished!
It has been a long ride, and every advancement still surprises me, you're almost there and i'd really like to see the end result, but as long as that makes you happy :)
Keep the good work!
What a journey you've had with this project! It's so cool to see this concept coming together (whether it wants to or not!)
Been excited to see how this project goes, all the hard work you are doing is impressive on this :D
U got this bro this shit is next level you’re doing something amazing my man keep up the outstanding work
Never since your buster sword video I have found out that there is tons of designs out there for 3D printed buster swords. I'm actually interested in doing something like that.
Dude gotta be your biggest project but I'm loving every second of it. I'm enjoying more seeing all the work you put into make it then I am excited to see the final product.
G-Sus. Such a tremendous amount of dedication. Gratz!!!!
Sure - go on!!!!
I didn't realize how early i was lmao. damn bro i hope you get to sleep at some point but the entire look of this project looks amazing.
You are the American Colin Furze. You are amazing and I love watching these!
This is amazing honestly so proud of you! keep going!
Great to see all that work starting to pay off, looks like you are getting close
Another 50 years of fine tuning and were there!
Definitely check out the steel cables.
But also if the servo is not strong enough, there is something to do about it, you can go full custom and make brushless servo, it will be even more compact and powerful.
This looks very good, it just can not "get scrapped".
You don't know me, but actually I'm working on some similar custom servo-related stuff, if the problem is in servo and you don't want to bother with a custom one, I would be happy to help with that.
Brushless motor + custom gearbox + magnetic encoders for position control.
This is absolutely insane. Well done.
You are truly an inspiration to all of us!
I appreciate your dedication to perfection.
I love your music choices in this one
watching you do this is sooo awesome! thankyou, really.
Tension cable idea: Frame wire (like the kind you put on the back of pictures to hang on walls?) Also, maybe a small metal tube for the routing instead of guide bolts?? At least that's what I would do. Should theoretically make it more consistent and stable
Can’t quit now, we believe in you
This man literally makes Real Science Fiction Weapons work Functionally for Combat; UA-cam Dead Asleep smh thanks Google.
Happy my friend. Because you are awesome.
Small victories mate. You are so close
I've seen kevlar bow string suggested and my suggestion would have been either a braided steel cable or even like guitar or piano strings but those can be pretty stretchy too
Almost there don't give up...too bad you can't use "spider silk"...but I can't wait to watch the end result
You could use pneumatic pistons and a small tank of compressed air, and some solenoids to make it work and have more power
Combustion pistons powerrrr💥
Like a propain plasma pop gun, or somethin
Keep going man it’s looking sweet!
I did enjoy the video! Awesome Jairus!
very satisfying at the end
Can you use a cable?
Edit: you mentioned might needing to just a moment later. Lol
That is some awesome progress!
look into small linear actuators with ball screws or perhaps even spring load it and have a similar actuator to rewind the spring after it fires.
Making future weapons by hand ✋
IT'S ALIVE
You’re kicking ass, so just keep doing what you’re doing. I’m pretty new to your channel so I’m not sure if you like suggestions in comments, but here’s one anyway… I could be wrong, but it looked like you had quite a few hard turns with the string around those button heads. Seems like you lose some power because of it. Wondering if you could soften those turns by routing the cable through some small tubes epoxied into the arm.
Well done
This project elicits the same sort of awe I get with some of colin furze's projects.
Hey this project is pretty damn awesome. And your progress is moving forward. So keep up the great work! Wonder if kevlar string would help?
you can fix it. Changing the string will defently help but the motors just need a better mechanical advantage. Hope your doing well.
it a fantastic proof of concept. that it is actually feasible. but I also believe you reach the point that you need some better technology that is accessible in a home shop.
like space craft material and precision.
ahhhhhh, I love manufacturing
8:59 enjoying the beat.
So exciting!!! So close!
Try using Dyna X Black MPC from atwoodrope.com . With a diameter of .08inch / 2.032mm and lifting cap of 550 Lbs with very little stretch I think it might work well for the project.
Man, your builds are amazing! I'd love to see you build the "Stake Driver" from Bloodborne, that weapon is so cool!
You desperately need a Lathe.....and a Bridgeport for that matter!!
sometimes you're the guy building the airplane, sometimes you're the guy making the washers
You look like the mature version of William Osman lmao
AMAZING! but it just occurred to me. you're building two right? :-P
watch this vid blow up
honestly though good job on making this
Just imagine this being an actual start of legit cybernetics corporations? Today - working replicas of videogame items, ten years later - people are buying his products in bulk.
dont worry be happy
They're not really from 56 years in the future though, they appear in one of Johnny's memories from 2015.
Nice, now for the other arm.
I mean it isn't exactly inside your arm but maybe in 2077 it will be
I could imagine that this similar to what they might have had in our time "prototype"
you got this
I think you may be able to use a Kevlar string in place of what you are using.
Braided fishing line is no stretch.
Hey! Have a nice day my dude. I really enjoyed that video and your channel. I don’t comment often on anything, but homie I’ve had a nice day and I hope you did too
Is there such a thing as aluminum cable? Might be lighter and more flexible than steel cable if so.
That or maybe copper if it'd be strong enough?
use piano wire or guitar string, the big E string in a set of .11 guitar strings is rated to over 400 pounds of tension and once they stretch, they stay stretched
This seems like it would have been easier if 3d printed, is there a reason you're hand machining them all?
Too bad I won't be alive for technology like cyberpunk 2077's :,,)
blink twice if you're being held hostage Jairus!!!!
loving it
