The "stringing" of the filament can be reduced by increasing the "retraction" settings. It basically winds the filament back a bit everytime the nozzle moves to a different location. Stringing can be cleaned up with gentle use of a blowtorch.
Woo! I remember watching Giant Robot Project 1 which was a long time ago, was it before youtube? Looking forward to seeing it all come together again and, I wonder if it'll walk on/under water this time?
Question. The slewing bearing. They are usually designed to be attached to a solid structure to keep them from distorting beyond operational limits. I'm wondering if you have a structure in mind for the GRP, or are you planning to try using the slewing bearing as the solid structure?
День тому+2
Do you expect the robot to be able to walk on uneven terrain, or are you planing something for that?
3d printer stringing happens from a few things -- filament that has soaked in a lot of humidity, or retraction isn't enough (so when the printer hops from place to place, it pulls back the filament to stop oozing, this function is called 'retraction')
@@NickBiancalana in that climate the humidity problem is pretty likely. There should be noticable pop noises while printing from the water getting vaporized in the nozzle.
This thing is so freaking cool! Lol this has to be the coolest thing I've ever seen 3D printed. Beautiful CAD work!
Superhuman in action!
Respect
Robot Builder Goggles! Nice.

Loving the doctor robotnik vibes
I can't wait to see this thing running!

Back in the saddle again.
👍
Cool offset shaft to make a crankshaft. Are they clocked the same or offset?
What CAD software are you using.
Solidworks, very popular in industrial design.

Couldn't you make it belt driven?
I initially thought the same but that includes more pieces and therefore complexity
Yes I agree I should have watched the hole video before commenting 😊
