I know I am late to the party, but…. Wow ! Just. wow. This project is borderline insanity, and I love it !

The attention to detail on this thing is incredible. Don’t worry about lack of videos, I’m in for the long haul, but also quit your job and do this full time for my entertainment, thanks. ❤

Here in Brazil, I'm loving your work, I'm a Mechanical Engineer, congratulations on your work....

Love this project and videos, thank you very much for taking us with you on the journey! (also loved the Egg-trebouchet videos)

Phenomenal work. Your dedication is an inspiration!

Great to see that the project is still alive! Can't wait for an actual episode of this series!

Short but sweet. Thanks for the update and can’t wait to see the progress in the next one.

A robotic terminator hand with incredible strength would make an awesome prosthetic for people who have had their, well, you know.

Thank you! To be continued...

Great update, Andy, thanks! Your work and skills are so amazing to me!

Interesting skills builder.Enjoyed!

glad to see that you haven't given up

I admire your dedication.

Well, obviously I have to subscribe so I can vicariously be part of the robot apocalypse.

Thank You! This is awesome!

Awesome looking forward to the next one.

Keep it coming!

that's actually my first time enjoying watching the whole playlist on KZread and even coming back to hit the like button keep going, please! someday I'm sure the whole humanity will come back to your channel and hope it won't be to try to figure out a way to defeat Skynet. thanks a lot!!!

This is good Work 👍👍👍

I am The Biggest Terminator Fan... Ever! And i approve this.

Hey you’re back! 🎉

It's so cool that I watched the video and forgot to like it, I was so entertained by the video that I moved on to the next video lol very cool

glad to see an update. Love the progress, wonder how heavy it's gonna end up being.

Блин чувак, GPT по твоей технологии построит себе тело😂. Ты просто отличный инженер 👍👍👍

Very nice! I can't wait to see when you get to the Living Tussue problem. :P

Wow, that's dedication! Its looking amazing. My only comment (which may have been mentioned) is that the teeth should be human like. Maybe get some out of dentures?

I am building my own terminator t600 but also creating the molds myself which is incredibly hard since to make the molds I need to make the endoskeleton out of clay, do you have any suggestions or tips I could use?

@AndysMachines

I would love to build a T-600, but I think I need to finish this one first, and a few other projects. I actually think a 600 would be easier, I would weld most of it out of steel and oxidise it black. Being bigger and more primitive you don't have to be as precise and there's more space inside for the mechanical parts. Could you 3D print some of the moulds rather than using clay?

Keen to see your setup for casting the elbow piece, I still remember the grief it gave me....Also... I may have missed you saying it, but what are the cables that you are using in the arm

@AndysMachines

10 ай бұрын

I'm actually working on the elbow right now, my approach was to sand cast the basic shape with the parting line running lengthwise, and then machine the undercuts, recesses etc. The cables I mentioned are actually for the neck, but I'll be using similar ones in the arm too. Bowden cables come with 2 different types of outer casing, one that's a spiral strip and one that's made of straight wires. The spiral type is more common and generally better, but it changes overall length when bent which was causing problems with the tension in the neck as it bends. The straight wire type is less flexible but doesn't change length when bent. I actually knew about this problem before I built the neck, but I thought I could get away with it. That will teach me!

The only 'blueprints' I've found are a set of quite accurate drawings by Conqueror Worm for the hand/forearm. Everything else I've done by reference to photos and 3D and physical models and there's quite a lot of variation.

I am currently working on a linear actuator of this design. If anybody's interested let me know

For the actuators to be functional it would require an insane amount of force. But have you tossed around the idea of doing this with a small hydraulic pump? Ny next thought was pneumatic with either co2 or nitrogen.

@AndysMachines

4 ай бұрын

There are micro hydraulic systems, but the smallest cylinders are still around 4x bigger than those in the hand. It would be theoretically possible to make even smaller ones that would have enough force to compare to that of a human, but the main problem with hydraulics would be all the hoses that would need to be routed through the skeleton to the pump (around and through the joints). I don't think pneumatics would work well at this scale, not enough force and gas/air is too 'springy' to hold position well. Having said that I have an idea for a future project involving micro hydraulics.

If you use actuators that screw in and out.. You could use a tube with turning cable to actuate them from the chest..

@AndysMachines

I will operate some of the joints like this, where there isn't room to put the motor/gearbox near the joint itself. It's not the ideal way to do it as cables always have some stretch in them, particularly the rotary (flexible drive) type.

@laurahaaima1436

@@AndysMachines I am thinking about a new type of linked cable with no stretch.. Like a chain of small pins with pivoting small balls. The technology and materials are in the now.. Would be ideal for these type of applications. the small ball heads would have small horizontal pins so they wont have room to stretch.

The ball joint for the wrist. Reminds me of a trailer hitch. All you need to do is Cross drill that hole for the pin and, hog out the center section. For what you show in your design. They generally come with a pedestal to mount the trailer.

@AndysMachines

9 ай бұрын

Yes, they do look similar, however a trailer tow-ball is twice as big, the ball is only 1 inch diameter. A lot of the parts of the endoskeleton are actually smaller than you might imagine. The balljoint used for the wrist was a standard hardware part, but I don't know what it was used for and they may have modified it.

Some of the cylinders do have what look like lines attached, but many do not. They could be hydraulic, pneumatic or electric actuators. Who knows what they had in mind when building it? They probably just wanted to make it look good on screen.

I disagree. It is not hard to believe that you took 4 years in this project. I made an small historical miniature of the first submarine in wood and it took me one year.(ok, I did not worked everyday). Congrats. I made some jewelry too. Worked with soft metal(tin, cupper, silver) and...you have my respect.

Just so you know, the terminators had real human teeth.

@AndysMachines

4 ай бұрын

It's not mentioned in the first two films, but many people assume they are real teeth harvested from human prisoners. In Salvation (yes, I know many fans discount this film) all the T-800 skulls in the skynet factory (before assembly) had metal teeth. I think the teeth would most probably be made of the same material as the skull and then coated with an enamel coloured layer to look like human teeth. Why would they bother collecting and inserting full set of actual human teeth for each terminator? Personally I just prefer the look of the metal teeth, so I built it that way.

@GeneralPadron

@@AndysMachines, Because most if not all of the T-800 series has the living skin around the skeleton. This, as you know, was to deceive the humans. That is why they had the real looking teeth. Also, I do count Salvation as one of the cannon films.

@@AndysMachines , Yes, Salvation and the video games definitely open up the universe of Terminator and allows us to see allot more of the technologies involved. They should make more future prequals to open that up more.
