Recon Unit PART 1
Hey everybody! What's up?
In this video I'm going to scratchbuild and kitbash to bipedal Robot! Stick around and see the techniques used to create this machine, from simple cutting and gluing plastic pieces to laser cutting intricate shapes on MDF.
Wanna see photos of the builds earlier? Follow me on instagram: / cuttransformglue

    I watch a lot of these kinds of videos, but this is one of the best examples I've seen of true scratch building. So many videos claim to be of a scratch build, but when you start watching they're heavily using 3D printers. Excellent work! I'm off to watch part 2 now :-)

    Did you miss the part where he used a whole load of laser cut MDF pieces that seemed to fit his sketches perfectly? Anything you build without using a model kit is a 'scratch build', some people just use bespoke pieces rather than trying to find the perfect piece of junk

    If you've ever built a Gundam model they actually handle this nicely, the couple a joint limited to one axis to another and that achieves essentially 360 degrees of movement. If you haven't built a Gundam before you can buy kits for about $20-$30 and maybe see what I mean for yourself.

    Cut Transform Glue I think that will be the key. If I actually get the stuff that is roughly organised (read mostly shoved in the garage, but I know where it is) onto shelves, and I then handed either boxes or containers for my different “parts”, then I’ll be much more on the way. I might even look ‘organised!?!’ 😂
