Awesome video,
Simple clear and easy to follow, and ZERO annoying music, blasting out.
Perfect, thank you
Love your projects -- thank you so much for sharing this one!
thanks my friend for your nice comment 🙂
Gracias por compartir, excelente sistema
Wow man you have great skills and gold fingers too !
thank you bro!
Hi, how is maintenance with this setup? Has any parts worn out since you first built it?
Luxus version :-)
Where can I find the complete list of the components?
Very cool!! But I wanna know, what happened to the chicken that didn’t make it? Is it ok??
Thanks!! The video with the chickens was the first day, and only one didnt make it...
She is alive !!! .The next day she made it!
Off Grid Crafts thank God!!
Sir, how does the line in the middle going up an down?? Are there any tooth on the wheel??
I have a question.In the morning,when the relay turns on and the door opens,after the NC switch stops the motor the current throught the relays inductor will be still flowing unnecessary.
What is your question?
you are right, this project with the relays is the simplest i can make. you can use H-bridge with mosfets.
it work until now !

Is this what you meant to be asking?
@@OffGridCrafts What drill press stand are you using?
Thank you for this video, how I can get this material to do it the same , where you bought it , market Ali express or amazon or abay
What materials you can't find ?
Good evening. Motor and Timer, All Plastic,
@@falehhamd858 good evening too!
1. The plastics are 3d printed you must print them or make something else like this..
2. For motor you can find a geared one
3. it isn't timer but it's a day night sensor with h-bridge (look the diagram it's simple if you know simple electronics)
This works with 12v battery + solar panel
"This is just an idea you can make one with the materials you can find"
@@OffGridCrafts oky , very thanks
It's been almost a year now, how is it doing? Anything go wrong or get loose? Mechanical wise that is. I like the design a lot but am sceptical of the strength to keep predators out. Have you had any issues along those lines? Either way it looks great.
The only issue because of rain was the photo resistor... now I add a photo resistor with some silicone.. no problem with the strength because of the gears..
@@OffGridCrafts The area I was "worried" about is the cable and roller. Does it slip at all? Did you print it with grooves? TY.
No! If you stretched the wire well it will be ok . There is no grooves... test it and maybe you can find a better way... tell me to know!! You are welcome!!
@@OffGridCrafts Um, why are you yelling? Did you think I said something wrong?
I have been testing and looking for a better way to make a door that takes up less space (for smaller coops), that's why I like your setup. Still, like I said before, that was the only part that concerned me. I will be making one like yours but I am going to try a spindle
Nothing wrong! And I am not yeeling! All this is just an idea.. anyone can do it better!
Εντάξει πολύ μπροστά! Μια πόρτα για το κοτέτσι του μπαμπά μου παρακαλώ!
did you use an encoded dc motor or switches to provide the door limits
hello! i use switches and simple (analog electronics) take a look at 2:13 - 2:35
@@OffGridCrafts hi and thanks not sure how i missed it
@@ynocoolnamesleft you are welcome!
Hello.What happens when in the morning the weather is cloudy?
Hi!!! I adjust it when the weather was cloudy ( 8 months ago) all is good until now!
