Good ol ping pong balls! Good job mate
Thank you Bill, i wouldn't have dreamed of using any of this stuff before your channel. Good ol Bill 😎
Aaah, how sweet. I can almost feel the love between two of my favorite makers. 💞 Either that or the glue fumes are getting to me again. 🤤
Very cool. I especially like your himges.😮
Thank you brother! You are an inspiration! You're mind is a curious-jungle like mine!!! HAPPY DAYS.
Very impressive 👏
Awesome Mc Meca
Brilliant
Well done bro💯👌👍👍
Sweet
Dope
Every shape in your mind you have a plan for it, I love your creativity👏👏👏
Awesome work man, BRAVO!
That is just fantastic , great job using the handles from plastic spoons to build articulated arms and legs .... fantastic looking Mech 👌 👏 👍
great video
Andy Mecha forgive for me I have sinned. I watched only a few vedios and diddnt comeback for a time. Watching this today I realized the talent and creativity i've missed. Thank you for bestowing your vedios to us, the unworthy.
😅 Your very welcome, thanks for the high praise. If you haven't tried, you should give it a go, you might surprise yourself. 🤖👍
Excellent Work!
Great Paint job
The plastic covers on LED light bulbs work great for this as well.👍
Awesome idea man, sometimes building materials come from the weirdest places. 😎
Awessome
カッコいいね!
I see you are a really fast sander like me. Bzzt
Oh yeah, learning from the pros. Just need to be careful you don't set off the fire alarm. 🔥
Your ingenuity is outstanding, you've given me so many ideas by just showing how to work with a plain old spoon. I cant imagine whats to come! Keep on bashing!
Those leg constructs are genius , I’m stealing those for a build :D
I’m so happy you’re starting to get the views that rival your subs, sir! You deserve it….love your vids………and accent haha
used a scented oil mister unit to hold tricky superglue joins over as a 'third hand', the moisture plumes cure it pretty quick, and you have the bonus of posh pongs.
Would have been nice to see you painting it.
Sorry about that Jules. I have some other painting vids if you want to check those out. 😁
Ever try a stepping bit. They work great
@@AndyMecha do not use the drill motor to make the chuck tighten up. Use your hand 100% to do it. If it grabs your hand as you are tightening the chuck with the drill power, it can leave you with a nasty cut
These mech builds are all brilliant but I think this one is my favorite out of the 4.
Thanks for sharing. Lots of great ideas.
Brilliant build ! Such a nice step by step timelapse !
Thanks, it sparks creativity in my brain !
Nice one, that's good to hear and thank you. 😎 Give me a shout on Instagram if you post any builds.
This came out fantastic. Using simple shapes to create a complex looking mech. Love how the arms and legs were built.
Andy what a great robot build I definitely like what you did with this one. Definitely some awesome use of all the items you worked with. Very cool indeed!
Thanks man, Big Elvis is still one of my favourite builds. Definitely need to build an upgraded version.
It looks real good! I can totally imagine this walker around a waste land with weapons in hand 👁👁👌
Thanks man, that's the look I was going for but he's not allowed weapons in the house. Safety first. 😁
💯
Genial
😘
What Color. Of Grren did you us
And what did use to paintvthe Mechanical
Arms Andy Mc Mecha
Thanks George, I think the green is fern green and I used metallic blue on the arms.
Loving your work dude, can really see the improvement in your work and your videos the more content you make. Keep it up!!!!
Awesome bot build Andy, I think this is your best yet I've seen! Also, I love the look the rivets add to this. I see now how you get the edge detail on your spoons, never though to use a candle. Brilliant!!
FYI - You can keep some articulation in the hip joints if you glue the bottle cap on top of the ball. (Which I think comes from an old analog mouse. Right??) If the ball is a tight, but movable fit under the bottle cap, then it would allow you to pose the legs after assembly. Just a thought.
Great stuff, thanks for sharing, and keep on keeping on!!
Thanks, this is one of my favourites, Big Elvis. That's a great idea for articulation that could work really well.
Oh and the balls for the joints are baking beads, I found in my kitchen cupboard. 👍😎
This is an awesome build. Saw your shout out on T-Nu's channel and came over. You should make some characters from Machinarium some day!
Nice one, thanks for having a look. I just googled machinarium, ☺️ those wee bots would definitely be a good build, that's one in the notebook. 👌👍
What is the pink handle tool you used when doing thr rivets?
I think it's called a gem applicator tool. It has a small hollow tip that the gem fits into I just dab it on my tongue so the gem sticks.
Nice 😍😍 is it posable?
Thank you 😁 unfortunately this guy is not posable. I have been experimenting with magnets and ball joints to try and include articulation in future builds.
@@AndyMecha but i saw this build is posable in one of your short 🤔 but it doesn't matter it's cool. I need to try to make one 😁
Awesome looking! Great job! A tip I heard somewhere when sanding down stuff like sculpey: if you add just a little water to the sanding paper, it will hinder the fine dust particles from spreading across the room and into your lungs :)
EDIT: Can I ask where you got that valve for the opening of the mech? I need it! :)
Thanks, that's an awesome tip, saves my lungs and since I craft in my living room it'll keep the dust down. 👌👍
Oh yeah, the valve is a wheel from a toy car trimmed down with a knife. If you want to check out my spray bottle scratch build tutorial I explain it about 12mins in. 😁👍
What is your rivet applicator?
It came with a gem art kit. If you search ebay for gem applicators it should pop up. 👍
where do you buy the spoons
I buy them from the pound shop or other discount shops. Sometimes even the supermarkets have them.
What Brand 9f painyvyou use
Hi George, it's just cheap acrylic paint brand is deco art. I show some of the bottles in my painting vids.
what is that powder you apply at 7:19?
That's baking powder, it cures the glue instantly and gives a stronger bond. 👍
Nice job!
To clean up cut lines, it's often useful to have a letter-sized piece of wood with a glued-on sheet of sanding paper so you can quickly sand stuff flush and even.
