I can never get enough of The Ben Heck Show. Every time I watch you guys, it's like I'm Randy Marsh watching the Food Network, and then getting all these inspirations to cook. Thank you.
I use neodymium magnets to hold the wood down in my laser cutter so that when i remove the work the waste stays EXACTLY in place in case i need to add engraving. Saves a ton of painters tape.
This was a fun video to watch. A lot of people will not have the space and/or budget for all these tools. Check out your local makerspaces as these tools may be available there!
Great show! Love it! What size awg is the solid wire you use on the PCB's 28? 30? Thanks btw I love where the show is going, the addition of Karen and seeing Felix more is improving the show. Keep up the good work!
One of my clients has a 3D printer that can do metal. Its about 1 million to 2 million dollar unit. It is also liquid cooled. They also have a few machines that do up to 32x32x16 inch items. Those a about 500K each.
This is a useful video, it's fun watching the giant gameboys and spy cooler episodes but these sort of videos.Sometimes the comments about how to use something, or whats' the best tool for the job get lost in the rest of the project specific videos.
Hey there Ben, i mentioned this on a previous video, but i figured i'd comment on something more recent. I've been slowly getting into electronics since i started watching your show, and i'd really like to get into making my own guitar pedals (Distortion, Overdrive, Boost, Delay, Reverb. etc) I was wondering if you could dream up some designs, or maybe even some kind of multi-fx unit that i might be able to build. i tried my hand at a couple of distortion schematics that i was able to find online, but to no avail. perhaps you could guide me in the right direction. either way, i love the show, and thanks for keeping it up all these years.
You compensate for the tool in the cnc program Then it will know where to put the toopath. I guess this machine isnt nearly accurate enough to do that though.
Weeeeelll.... Okay, it was a great episode, but I'm not sure I'd say it's about design workflow. It's more about tools. And a bit about electronics prototyping. By design workflow I'd guess you would pick a project from its earliest stages and then talk about the whole design process, including the decisions you'd make midway through completion.
So we've been watching Ben for 4 years and we finally learn how to use a breadboard, and how solder???? There are plenty of other youtube channels for learning electronics basics. I thought it was assumed you got inspired, went away and did your homework, watched all Ben's back catalogue of content, or heaven forbid buy a book about beginner electronics - then come back when ur ready to learn higher level stuff. Your running the risk of trying to please too many people. Old viewers are really starting to get pissed with these series of beginner tutorials. And the newbs will not understand much of the content. Why not create a new channel with electronics tutorials. I miss the old days....bring back The Ben Heck Show
+raindogred That was a really long rant. You made a good point BUT you failed to give suggestions for new videos that mind you they always ask at the end of their videos. It's one thing to point out what's bothering you, but please give them ideas, otherwise you risk sounding like a salty viewer. I do agree that they should have a separate channel for tutorials though. It would keep things nice and organized.
+raindogred I agree with you. I really liked those videos too. However it's not that simple. They've been having some problems with new ideas lately. Remember a host will never ask for ideas if he/she has ideas. After so many years it gets hard to come up with new exciting ideas. It happens. It's why it's our duty as fans to provide realistic but awesome ideas for him to make and for us to enjoy. :)
+The Ben Heck Show Well my suggestion is to do a second channel, or create a playlist with a separate series for beginners.. Aussie Dave has fundamental Fridays (sometimes). I understand the need to educate beginners..it's important. However, I really liked the way that Ben was never into "hand holding" beginners, There are plenty out there who do that. The onus has always been on the viewer to do your own homework to try and understand what Ben is doing... it's never been a "maker/instructable" channel (thank god).. i.e electronics equivalent of paint by numbers. But the world is changing and what Ben was doing 5 years ago, which was so far ahead of the game it wasn't funny..pretty much stood on his own on youtube, it was mind-blowing ..microcontrollers, prototyping using cnc, 3d technology..is now old hat, Hard to believe in such a short period in time. Arduino generation and now retail stores selling 3d printers??? I think now more than ever you guys should not be trying to compete with all that..my 2 cents. Having said that, I appreciate all the vids you guys put out for our education/entrtainment.thanks
it's more "different design and prototyping technique" than a workflow plan. workflow means pretty much "how a project takes shape step by step" wich is not even talked about here, fix your titles instead of clickbaiting.
I can never get enough of The Ben Heck Show. Every time I watch you guys, it's like I'm Randy Marsh watching the Food Network, and then getting all these inspirations to cook. Thank you.
"Ben you're back we missed you!" "...wow." lmao I'm dying :D

I like it when Ben does a Guest appearance on the Felix and Karen show. He's always so polite and informative. J/k Love the show guys!
This was a fun video to watch. A lot of people will not have the space and/or budget for all these tools. Check out your local makerspaces as these tools may be available there!
Awesome video Ben i learned about between PCB boards and prototyping boards i never known before Thank you.
Great show! Love it! What size awg is the solid wire you use on the PCB's 28? 30? Thanks btw I love where the show is going, the addition of Karen and seeing Felix more is improving the show. Keep up the good work!
You should build a handheld gameboy like pocket pc for light gaming out of a intel compute stick.
+Jack J Check PiGRRL (Raspberry Pi project)
have you tried conductive filament for 3d printed circuits?
Love This Show
And What Ben Dose!!!!!!

Thanks for another fine video Ben!
Hey Ben I was wondering how did you start learning or start on the whole with electronics.
Hey there Ben, i mentioned this on a previous video, but i figured i'd comment on something more recent.

Hello Ben and thanks for the video one thing being that CadSoft EAGLE is expensive why not suggest or used software like Fritzing for PCB's?
Eagle is free until you go commercial
+Ben Taylor The EAGLE Light Edition can be used for free but I did not know that thanks
4:23 I love when she does the _muppet smile_. ;D
Up next are you going to make your work flow process more portable?
YES! The hotglue bit is still there! :D
Hi! Ben.
Would love to see a balance bot build.
Who sent an email to the Lazer Printer?
Can you build a morse code armwatch using an Arduino and some 433 Mhz transmitters / receivers? Just a button and a LED.
Would be awesome :D
Was that a R2-D2 head I saw in the background?
+Jmaca32 Yes. It was from the can cooler we made around Christmas time. It was a very CNC router heavy project.
Use PEI (Polyetherimide) Sheet for your build platform on your 3D printer and you will no longer have warping issues.
Awesome video!
Ben, I hope that you keep on design a game console that one day, all retro gamer can develop they own game or mod in it.....
It would be really cool to show how to reflow a CPU on a motherboard, fyi a PS3 and/or a XBOX 360. (YLOD & RCOD)
+BenJamin Croft I reflowed my PS3 motherboard by baking it in the oven. I don't have a heat gun. Thing still works lol.
Is it cold in the workshop? Everyone always dresses so warmly.
+Gooberslot Wisconsin is a very cold state in the winter.
Looking Tanned Ben, where have you been?
You compensate for the tool in the cnc program Then it will know where to put the toopath. I guess this machine isnt nearly accurate enough to do that though.
ben can you do a cideo about making a game console using a avr or arm stm32 microcontroller
Weeeeelll.... Okay, it was a great episode, but I'm not sure I'd say it's about design workflow. It's more about tools. And a bit about electronics prototyping.

Hey Ben Make a REAL Coleco Chameleon! That would be hilariously awesome!

+derek jeter Give specific ideas, preferably on their forum. :]

Awesome!
Can you make a very slim GBA
What is that high pitched beeping that is in every single episode?
it's part of the music I think
Also laser cuter are very pricey
I'm watchin it
So, where's Karen's shirt from? The characters seem so familiar but I can't put my finger on it.
+phoxxentswrath I'll give you a hint. Below the characters it says "Run Orphans Run"
theHeckwithKaren Soo, Series of Unfortunate Events, right?
Nice Tan Ben! ;)
Alison????
Show me the R2D2 !!!!
+)v(emento OKAY! bit.ly/1SVhMkP
Ben looks a lot better!
And where is Felix?!?!
+Daniel Monteiro (MontyOnTheRun) maybe its his turn for a vacation?
+JJiG a reasonable explanation
batten down the hatches!
Can you guys make me a piboy???
He got some sun... 😬
i think ben needed some rest i looks to have a lot more energy
it's more "different design and prototyping technique" than a workflow plan. workflow means pretty much "how a project takes shape step by step" wich is not even talked about here, fix your titles instead of clickbaiting.
just build cool things and bring back the bad acting
