Thanks man. I've got half of an email drafted to you all about this, it's been a ride.

Dude made my favorite lightsaber.

Bro, you are the MAN!!! This thing is absolutely requisite

CRAZY.. YOU MANIAC... YOU ARE 1 WILD MAD SCIENTIST... ABSOLUTELY UNNECESSARY. I SOOOO WANT ONE.. RESPECT bro..

Dude, you're making Huyang look like a Nokia brick phone from 2001. Amazing work.

My dudes abouta slay some younglings

This is incredible! Congrats!

Wow man always bringing awesome projects

We are intrigued in the final product and how well it will wield in your hands. This is a very cool build. Keep up the good work! This is the way.

Our NYC Star Wars Disney/LFL Recognized Costuming group would be the first to purchase from you.. KEEP AT IT!!

You build it......PEOPLE WILL BUY IT! Including my self. That thing is just sick!

So awesome to see you back!! I need some more Chopper!! fist bumps from Canada :)

Man I know I'm a month late to this, but this is awesome! Can't wait to see what the finished project looks like!

Really cool and well built !

This is absolutely brilliant. I'm making an inquisitor saber myself, but your design is miles ahead of mine! I'll be watching your progress closely 👍

That's great! A couple other spinning saber builders have messaged me as well saying they are working on one as well. Feel free to message me on facebook if you want to compare notes on anything.

I have been searching for a spinning one thank you for making this

This exact one is what I've been looking for!

this is amazing. great job!

I’ve been wanting someone to do this for so long good luck with it

Love this! Interested to see the development!

I’ve been looking for this finally

Awesome build !!!

Great job keep the good work

I'm guessing that with more internals and then the outer decorative parts you may be able to dampen the wobble and noise hopefully. It's already reached an impressive stage can't wait to see the next vid

@PatchBOTS

Yeah. There is going to be speakers for sounds and what not, plus everything will be covered and (hopefully) tuned a little better. All that noise is coming from the miter gear mash, that can definitely be fine tuned and greased a bit more.

Woah!! Can I be your apprentice please?! Amazing work!!

This is great! Have you considered building the components that are outboard into a gauntlet that has contact points in the upper palm of the glove and the webbing between the thumb and forefinger?

@PatchBOTS

3 жыл бұрын

The outboard components will soon be contained. The final saber will be two isolated systems; hilt and outer ring connected via bluetooth. Both systems will have their battery packs built in.

@FuzzyBunnyRainbow

@@PatchBOTS very clever with the bluetooth! I'm guessing the sound venting will be radial near the ends of the handle (to avoid spin distortion of the sound and taking it's accelerometer input via bluetooth for the outerwheel plus input from the handle as well)? When you move to a internally compartmented setup, are you trying to do neopixel for the blade lighting or baselit due to the high battery drain needed for the spin? We will watch your career with great interest!

@PatchBOTS

@@FuzzyBunnyRainbow Thanks. Sound will come from transducers which will hopefully turn the whole thing into a speaker. I doubt it will be super loud, but hopefully enough. Yes, I'm sticking with the neopixels for this version. I'm slowly making a list of ways to make a potential V2 better, and switching out the neopixles is definitely on that list.

does yours do that?

Take my money!

I think making it heavier in the center would help with the swinging of the two blades?

@PatchBOTS

2 жыл бұрын

Yeah. But making it heavier would be a bad move. It's already pretty hard to hold for any duration of itme. Next iteration will be much lighter all around

Glad to see you posting again, though at the end of the video, why does the blades spinning have a greenish yellow colouring instead of red? side note, it looks like leeks spinnning around and reminds me of the leek spin videos.

@PatchBOTS

3 жыл бұрын

I have no idea why the blades look like that vs. the red. I had the same reaction when I saw the footage. I assure you from my perspective the color of the light did not change when it started spinning. Must be some light/camera/speed scenario. Maybe someone smarter than me can explain.

@robynsun_love

AFAIK red blades turning yellow is pretty normal on most cameras, even high-end ones, unfortunately.

So that's what you where up to

And here’s me thinking they just need a rotating mechanism and just a locking mechanism that you cam hold to unlock . so you just flick it spins and then Press it to stop it spinning So your not stuck to wires against a wall/generator

Once you have the design perfected, do you think you would ever sell some or make any on commission? I would absolutely love to have one of these.

What sort of asshole would give this a thumbs down? LOL this is AMAZING!

Where can I buy lol

Never owned a saber too expensive for me but I want that hilt desperatly! Wish God gave me the skills and tools. Coolest saber ever. Kudos my friend. Was it expensive AF? How long to build? You sir made this Star Wars fan outright giddy with delight. So jelious 👏👏👏

still a work in progress. i've been picking it up on and off for a couple years now. you'll see in the next two videos how complicated the circuitry can get with something like this. lots of fails, but it's in a good spot now.

Will this be for sale?? And for how much if it will be?

@PatchBOTS

3 жыл бұрын

This version will not be for sale. This version is a real brute force attempt to get this working. I've learned some ways to make it better/faster/lighter, so if the demand is there I may do a V2 which would be pretty easy to replicate

I had had the idea to build one of these four or so years ago! Although I deemed it too tricky of a project to attempt. Do you think the final product will be two isolated systems (the blades and the rotation motor)? Hopefully you're able to balance it well enough that it doesn't throw its weight around.

@PatchBOTS

3 жыл бұрын

Yes it's tricky. I've been working on this on and off for a couple years. Yes, the Inner and outer sabers are isolated systems connected via bluetooth. All user controls are in the hilt which can send signals to the outer saber for turning the blades on and off, activating the sound, etc. This project will have 4 videos. Video 2 will be all about the inner saber circuit and Video 3 will be all about the outer saber circuit.
