⚠️ As a professional tattoo artist for over 30 years, I can tell you that you’re on to something very big here. I recommend reaching out to some of the bigger names in the piercing community for advice if needed and a possible colab in getting this to market. Seriously, the piercing world has been waiting for something new and different for a long while.
Great job!
I'd definitely get something like this if given the opportunity
fully agree he need to make some collab with come of the companies and make a product and start making serious money with it....
They would be expensive. Look at how much time it took to make one, with no guarantee of success with them. If gost is no object, why not reach out to him via his website?.
he freehands jewelry on a regular lathe. he programs an ATTiny through 1mm pitch pin headers. he finds micro soldering relaxing. this guy is insane
😂
This was way smaller than I thought was possible by hand.
@@althejazzman my mind was blown when i watched luis rossmans channel and saw him do board level repair with a microscope by hand. some people are electronics surgeons
@@eccomi21 Yes Luis is incredibly skilled too.
Some people...
I’m reading the blogpost, and I must point out that nickel is best avoided in jewelry since it induces sensitivity in the long run. Most people who wear nickel jewelry end up becoming allergic to it. So I’d suggest you make both of the end caps for v2 :3
Or just metal plate them :)
@@lynes2peters438 over time plating can wear out, but this probably isn’t meant to be worn much, given the battery life, so it would probably be fine.
@@conorstewart2214 don't forget the chromium in 304 stainless. And the fact that this is porous, which is a massive no-no when making piercing jewelry.
It should be titanium.
Also for comfort some kind of rounded caps or just rounded out edges on the end caps would be a big plus for redesign.
my shaky hands occasionally struggle soldering 22awg wire, your level of precision is almost beyond my comprehension. and the lighting designer in me is made very happy by how good it looks in your friends ear. outstanding work
use fingers as tripod legs
Employ hand stabilizing techniques. For example, I place my soldering hand down on the table at all times, since if it floats in air it will shake. I also bought a short handle iron so my fingers are more closer to the tip, so that helps shakiness too. Finally, using a microscope eliminates a lot of shakiness compared to just doing it with your eyes.
You just need to stabilise your hand. Think about writing, it is much easier and less shaky with your hand on a table or flat surface, soldering is no different, ideally you want to be able to rest your hand on a flat surface as close as possible, if that isn’t possible then resting your wrist or even elbow instead does help.
Shaky hands is a pain though, it’s the reason I had to switch to holding a soldering iron in my left hand.
Also for things this small you should consider getting a cheap reflow station and solder paste, it makes things like this much easier. Then the only precise part is applying the paste and placing the components and if you get a stencil this is even easier. Plus you don’t need to go small, you can always use larger SMD components.
@@user-rn1br5tq5j I do steady my hands on the table. its usually very manageable but occasionally my fingers will shake a considerable amount more for a couple mins. like the iron tip moves an inch side to side amount of shake.
IKR! he has the precision of a surgeon! 😀
For on/off control, maybe a magnet - you can get very small hall sensors.
Trust me he's not gonna settle for an On/Off switch He is gonna make a version with light ans sound activation (in particular sound is his jam) :D
A hall sensor-based tap tempo bpm counter would be sweet. One tap for on/off, multiple taps to detect BPM and change the pattern accordingly.
That's a cool idea, the magnet could be hidden in an accompanying ring!
@@robbiekavanagh2802ooooh I like that idea so much!!
Hall sensors is a little overkill, a simple reed would do
You're like a CNC machine when machining on the lathe
So... A machinist?
Almost robotic❤
I’ll forgive him
I want a CNC
@@aufoslab mitxela isn't for sale
Amazing project! Handcrafted precision, machining… With LEDs! There’s no way this wasn’t going to be an awesome project. But how come nobody’s giving you credit for the exceptional camera work? I have to think that filming at that scale was as much a challenge as anything in the project itself. Wow, for all of it.
man's a true artist indeed.
You just buy an appropriate lense my dude. Not that hard.
@@soggybiscotti8425 Well if you’ve done it yourself then I’ll take your word for it. But to me the appropriate lens seemed like the least of it. Lighting it all, positioning the camera(s) and honestly just capturing the work while you’re actually doing it. And then doing it scene after seeing after scene… All of that seems like a pretty immense task. Maybe it’s just me.
@bombdiggity7196 admittedly I'm a professional photographer, not videographer or video editor, but I have enough experience to know that it's not particularly difficult with some simple lighting and the correct lense/lenses filter. But don't get me wrong, it's filmed fairly well and looks nice. Not trying to give him a hard time at all, just saying it's not particularly difficult to film so you are aware.
I will however give him credit for his camera positioning and whatnot. Some of the shots look quite good and are well placed. Some are a bit off but also some of thst comes down to picky personal choice, particularly from someone in a field where shots are everything and need to be perfect. You are right though, he has some nice lighting in some of the shots too. Some better than others, but all round very good 👍
I also mainly shoot on film so, it needs to be taken pretty much flawlessly on the day. I'm not into using an enlarger to correct positioning and whatnot. But some people aren't as picky and as traditional to their approach. It's certainly easier to do digital work. Would make my job far faster and easier, but to a detrement of quality and it loses my signature look as I habe a very specific method of developing thst achieves a particular balance of sharpness and grain. But anyway, that's going off on a bit of a tangent.
For ehat it is, you're right though. He did a great job 👍
Love everything from this channel.
oh damn u here ?
when is marble machine v92 gunna be done??
@@mikayla_collie Nah he scrapped v92, it wasn't picosecond axact, now he's working on version X three.2@
@ivanmolano7577 haha! 😆 omg that's hilarious 😂 I gave up hope of ever seeing it done at this point. Lol
It’s cool to see multiple popular artists and creators at the same time
A very well earned "Damn!" at the end. Incredible machining and filming!
I dont usually watch this type of content, but it was recommended to me by UA-cam. But even though I am an alien to the mini electronics world, I couldn't help but be absolutely devastated when that LED stopped working.
This craftsmanship is so unbelievably delicate and beautiful to watch, with almost a storyline, so when things go wrong it's like watching your favourite character not quite make it to reaching the victory you had hoped for.
Nevertheless, I love your work and your evident care and all around calmness.
Typical female romanticizing everything. Just watch the video ffs
The UV Amulet was already impressive, this is clearly next level.
I love the trick of using slightly off phase patterns, my VRChat avatar uses a similar technique to get light patterns that _seem_ random despite being entirely controlled by simple animation loops, using prime number ratios to ensure a large number of permutations.
that's really clever
If you're looking to use the snaller LEDs maybe you could use different colored triplets to achieve an RGB effect. Or use a bunch of the little tiny ones in the same color to make it more of a continuous line of light, or maybe have one in front and one in back to light up the ear behind ot as well. Or use them in some other unrelated project, but I definitely want to see them used in some kind of project.
While that would fill the "maximum micro soldering" part of a good project, those one-wire addressable RGB LEDs are a much more sensible approach.
I would suggest using an addressable 0402 WS2812B LED as it would only require 1 signal wire
I just wanted to say that I really love what you do and whilst both the video and the piercing itself were amazing, I just wanted to appreciate just how passionate you are about these projects
I think that what makes these videos so special and just wanted to thank you for making these in such a special way
Interesting that the epoxy adds a bit of a light guide effect, that dead spot still gets a bit of light from the next one in line. If the next one is RGB then maybe take advantage of that.
Absolutely mad lad; You always choose the harder way: the soldering, the machining, everything. And that's so charming.
It's so satisfying to watch you with your calm voice and well chosen words when you develop and manufacture such an awesome project!
That's a very silly project, I love it! Also, what tweezers are you using for these projects? They look very sturdy and nicely made, I've been looking for some with such a fine tip.
Look up titanium alloy tweezer. They are extremely fine tiped but still feel very sturdy and handle well.
Your production quality is so impressive. Amazing work as always with this project!
this is incredible. love love love the blinking pattern, the effect created by slightly offset oscillation is mesmerizing
As someone who has sometimes done work at that scale and has tried showing it on camera I'm deeply impressed with the skill you demonstrate doing both at once! Much better than my attempts thus far.
this is so cool!!! it feels like just the right blend of cyberpunk and maker culture. also that case is the most beautiful hard case i've ever seen. if i wore piercings and my friend made this for me i would cry
That's very unique, well done!
You should patent that and start selling it in local piercing Studios.
It has to be made to measure... and would cost quite a lot
but considering some ladies have solid gold piercings in funky places i guess a couple people would buy it
@@Mic_Glow made to measure? industrial piercings are usually one of three sizes
What a fantastic idea and execution! You definitely inspired me to go below 0603 for my next project. Every time there is an upload from your channel, you know its something unique!
One of the most beautiful and amazing project I saw this year. Thanks to showing its gestation, production and exposition! You should definitively dig more your concept and make other ones. Bravo!!
I really like your pulsing pattern! I just finished my second annual LED xmas ornament, and if you had published this a few weeks ago I would have implemented this mode as well! There's always next year.
For cutting holes in the needle, a dremel abrasive cut-off disc may be a simple option - if you're epoxy-filling, the shape of the hole may not matter too much.
In French :
Les résidus microscopiques du disques abrasifs ne sont peut-être pas une très bonne idée pour un piercing je pense... risque d'infection a cause d'un corps étranger dans l'organisme.
In english trad :
The microscopic residues of the abrasive disc may not be a very good idea for a piercing I think... risk of infection because of a foreign body in the organism.
@@HYDRA_MARK_VI
In English:
I imagine that if you cleaned the needle after making the holes, that risk would be reduced. I'm not an expert though. Definitely a good point to think about when when creating something like an earring that will come into contact with a piercing.
In French:
Je suppose que si vous nettoyez l'aiguille après avoir fait les trous, ce risque sera réduit. Mais je ne suis pas un expert. C'est en tout cas un bon point à prendre en considération lorsque l'on crée quelque chose comme une boucle d'oreille qui entrera en contact avec un piercing.
I loved your digital clock design and have been dying to buy one of them for some time, and as someone who has an industrial piercing myself this would definitely be an instant purchase if you ever sold one or a kit for one in the future! You're making some really awesome and cool projects, I love it and just subscribed to your channel, can't wait to see more!
Your projects never cease to amaze me!
I recently recreated your Charliestar earrings by designing small pcbs with the ATtiny, LEDs and a tiny button on one side and a CR927 holder on the other.
Your videos are always very interesting!
every video of this man is golden
Awesome project. From the idea, to the amazing and precise execution to how dope it looks when worn. Hats off!
Truly beautiful project mate!
You never stop to amaze me with your abilities at work.
Glad to see you more active! Love your videos ❤
This is awesome, if you're unsure about the food grade epoxy being safe, you could use some medical grade 3D printing resin, cures clear with UV light, it's the stuff printed ear moulds (for hearing aids) are made from nowadays.
Maybe you could do a project with ear moulds? bluetooth paired in ear monitors with leds that flash depending on what you're listening to? wireless charging maybe?
Only just found your channel, but so excited to see your new vids, awesome!
I jsut found this channel, and as a hardware engineer and a hobby machinist, I have to tell you, this is absolutely fantastic. The craftmanship in this is top notch stuff. And you might have invented something completely out of the ordinary. Great work!
The precision of this project is amazing. Lovely video, subscribed.
More demo footage please! It's amazing.
This reminded me of the guy I saw a while ago who made his own prosthetic eye that had lights in it. I could imagine just having a small light like this would be an interesting look in a dark environment.
Also a use for those very small LEDs might be for "glitter" effects in art pieces, but what that would actually look like is up to anyone's interpretation.
Holy crap this was such a good video, your level of skill, knowledge, and attention to detail is what I aspire to work towards, and the pendulum wave effect on the LED’s BONKERS
Mitxela, I have no clue how I found myself on your channel, but I was completely hooked within 10 minutes of the first video I watched and am currently writing this after watching the 4th video of yours in a row. Cheers!
Honestly this is super inspiring as someone who wanted to but couldn't do a lot of circuit work- and no PCB work at all- while getting an ECE degree in university. Great job, really.
I get the same zen from micro soldering. I think filming this was WAY harder than making it. Great job!
This is one of the most beautiful things I have seen in a long time. Very well done
This video came up on my feed and I have to say you are a solid legend.
That’s plain amazing. I love working with RGB LED animations, and this is tinier by far than anything I’ve done. The end result is amazing, and almost as beautiful as the process and journey getting there. Having each led be slightly out of phase with the others is really the icing on the cake. I’ll have to steal that trick. Honestly, the whole thing is plain inspiring.
You're my hero! What a project. I agree, micro soldering IS relaxing and like meditating. Absolutely love the project and execution.
That was amazing ! so much precision .
Can't wait for the RGB version
this is the coolest video I have ever seen on youtube. I am about to start learning CNC and this video made me more excited to learn about it than anything else.
Amazing, can't wait for the next version.
This is beyond amazing. It's pretty bloody beautiful.
This is the best kind of silliness.
I am so thankful for all these videos
This is so awesome! I hope this project gets industrial scaled and open to purchase soon!
UA-cam recommendation giving me the good stuff today! What nice, beautiful, and delicate work, congratulations.
Amazing and ambitious! Fantastic execution!
so good to see you uploading frequently again!
This is insanely cool! Thanks for sharing your process and awesome build! Your creativity and ingenuity are truly inspiring! :D
That is amazing!
I was genuinely gutted with that LED failing but you accepted it and it still looks damned good.
really cool project!
I can't wait for the upgraded version!
I have never encountered your stuff before, but I’m very glad the algorithm led me here. What an awesome project!
Very enjoyable explanation of the whole process. Great video!
This is the first video I see from you, instant subscribe! Your work is awesome and a delight to see
most beautiful art I've seen in a while. truly special. thank you
What a wonderful project!! Well done, this is incredible.
you absolute mad man. I LOVED every second of this. Thank you so much!
Amazing project once again!! so cool to see you become a electronic jewelry wizard! keep up the good work!
I WANT THIS SO, SO BAD. extremely well done, the sheer precision and patience this would have taken at every step is astounding. the moment i become rich i will be busting down your door for one.
Love this project so cool! Everything the execution the design and application!
What an incredible video, and a wonderful end product
Crap... Your tiny micro soldering skills are pure awesomeness to watch. I thought I had tidy ideas of soldering. Not even close to my basic skills.
With burnt finger tips alone, (not to mention scalpel cuts and other tears) you seem to be a master of your craft, hats off to you Sir.
your soldering made me feel good about my soldering, thanks! Fr though this is crazy 🤩
Awesome video, what a great project idea! I love the stuff you make, can't wait to see the RBG version.
This was such a calm and nice video, thanks.
It's crazy cool, the craftmanship!
Amazing work!! Even with that one unruly LED, it looks awesome!
That is gorgeous! Love the design.
That looks amazing! I would wear one for sure
this is so cool! the way he makes these micro electronics is incredible!!
WOW, it's just incredible how small an LED can be. Amazing work.
i enjoyed your music so much it made me open beepbox to noodle around for the first time in ages
Dude you’re amazing. When I was a kid computers, electronics, circuit boards and components always amazed me, and idk how in the world in todays world that this store became obsolete, and I always loved going to Radio Shack as a kid in the 90s. I always wanted to learn about this stuff, but never knew where to start at. But I love this stuff and I just had to subscribe 😊
Super unique and well crafted!
I've never really thought of anything outside an integrated circuit as "microelectronics" before, that but this video changes that
How cool it turned out! As a musician, I need them.
dude your voice is calming as hell
I just found this channel and I can already tell it's gonna be HUGE pretty soon.
You sir deserves more recognition. The channel is not my thing but the quality and explanation is top notch! Superb worksmanship. Hope you will go big in new upcoming year! Cheers!
The quality, the editing, the music, all great. Hope to see more in upcoming videos.!
This channel is hidden gem , absolutely amazing quality
Alright ive seen 2 videos and im in love with your channel
It's always a good day when mitxela posts! I love everything about this!
ugh mitxela is so cool, this looks amazing
What an amazing project! The box is the cherry on top
The negative wire connection that you were careful to make sure didn't touch the case and short out, you might consider "liquid electrical tape", which is a paintable insulator
You're a madman! 😆 Please never stop, it's amazing!
Also cool tunes. 🎧
as an electrical engineer in progress you inspire me so much that you for sharing your creations with us it means a lot to me personally as well as many others i’m sure
Would you say after getting your BSEE, projects like these would be cake to design?
Nice idea and great execution!
you might just created a whole new trend... bravo to you sir!
And i thought i could do very tiny things by hand but you. you sir are a master!
Thats amazing - what an incredible feat of engineering!
I haven't enjoyed this much watching UA-cam for a while now, until this. I feel like this video really awakened something in me, and now I want to know more about microelectronics such as these!
