I'm making a hammering robot because uh, I hate getting my nails done
Actually, I've
blacklisted a bunch of jokes for this project including "It's hammer time," "Let's get hammered," "Nailed it,"
"Smashed it," 'Shaft."
And I've also already built the hammering robot, but I forgot to film an intro.
So let's rewind to before I knew how painful this project would be. I was so much younger back then!
(lil' montage of Simone doing things)
Wait, by the way, this video is sponsored by Squarespace, thank you. Back to rewinding.
Hi, my name is Simone.
This is what I have so far
So here's a servomotor that I hope is gonna not buckle under the pressure of all of this
oh Poor servomotor oh
Why am I not a mechanical engineer I feel like this would be so much easier if I just knew what I was doing
This is not gonna workt Cal. I went back to the drawing board and made a bunch of sketches of it
I really need to make sure that this fully works very soon because I'm taking it to LA because it gonna be a guest on
Good mythical morning
I got a linear actuator
560 pounds of thrust agh
*grunting*
My god so heavy
So the main thing I struggled with mechanically for this project is that I want only to use linear actuator
But I want the Hammers to be offset so that they're not hammering at the same time, but they're going like this
But then I realized that if they have the same pivot point
But the the motor lifts them one from from this side and one from the back side then we should get that effect
I've made so many assumptions of this, but I've also planned really carefully so
Thank you oh
My god, this is some hard wood. It's like impenetrable. Scott is laughing
So they're both gonna pivot right around here, and I have like these little D. Shafts that are coming into the hole
but you need to make sure that they
Don't get stuck in the hole
so that they can twist around really well
These bushings that you push into the
bushing?
Really, how like a bush?
We don't have an HR department
I
I doubt this machine so much we're just gonna try it
There's a really big motor, and there's a lot of things that can go wrong, but okay?
that's it thanks for watching
Why is it so slow?
The most of all you need to make sure that it actually touches the table because now it was like really politely
Stopping you're not supposed to be polite. You're supposed to look like a kid is throwing a tantrum in a shopping mall
Okay, it's also really late. I need to eat some food and not hang out with this hammering robot more
I will show you how to be angry
Okay, this is where it's at
It's just not working out and I was really stubborn trying to make it work for the linear actuator and Marcos was helping me out
the guy's polishing a rod
Marcus's is my friend who helped me build spool. I think I showed him briefly polishing the needle to spool as well
Well, you just gotta embrace it. That's your brand on my youtube channel
I'm flying to LA tomorrow, and we basically started building the hammering robot from scratch
But I like this so much more. I've scrapped the linear actuator. I might do like a DIY hydraulic press
Or something basically, it's just gonna be here and the motor is gonna
Have a cam and it's gonna push down on the on the hammer, and then it's gonna hammer hammer stuff
You'll see it's gonna be glorious
M: You're gonna come like this
S: Yeah?
M: You're gonna steady your hand with your glove
S: Yeah
M: you're gonna stay stable at the tip
I made this. It's a thing
It's so beautiful
Do you think that it's gonna hold?
M:Yeah. I think It'll hold.
M:do you wanna stitch the sides as well?
Yeah, I got you
Ow!
Watch it. It's warm. Im like "I Know!"
It was worth it
I wanna feel my weld
I'm in LA at good mythical morning. I'm nervous because macus and I finished this robot 10 p.m.yesterday
and there's like 80 people here, so if it doesn't work. I'm gonna be the one sweating
Yeah
This is Simone Giertz, and she has built a hammering robot we're gonna build a birdhouse by the way
Just like this really hopeful, so what's really great about this hammering robot is that you only need three people to operate it?
R: Gotta get it under there quick
We're gonna up the speed a little bit
It really- AAAAA
It got it in a little bit
What did you think about the robot
it does it does its thing very well
Very dangerous very edgy. I feel like it might be better as a smashing robot or as like a beat robot
Yeah, you get a good like that's kind of what I was yeah
That's what I was considering its thing, but I didn't want to hurt your feelings. I'm gonna take it and smash some stuff
back to San Francisco
No, I got it bye, thanks
Oh
Wow, it's a it's now again. Just like in the beginning of the video. I'm actually not looking at an imaginary wristwatch
I'm just seeing how much my arm hair has grown the hammering robot is definitely more destructive than constructive
I wanted to embrace its true nature. Can we cue some triumphant music?
Is that is that all we can afford yeah, okay, we'll featuring a fin on a budget
Don't put the hammering a robot in a mold because it will break it if you put a glass ceiling over the hammering robot it
Will shatter it you can try and knock the hammering robot down, but it will knock you out. Is anyone else crying?
It's just me
I try and just push them back into the eyeball should I be wearing shoes maybe?
Safety first, but I don't call it safety. I call it sexy okay uh
Let yourself free hammering robot
Mark, I don't know what the story behind making this car is but the story is gonna end here
I love you apparently they didn't love you back they give it to Goodwill
Oh, ya think you're safe?
We still have a whole head are you okay Scott?
There's very few contexts that sentence would make sense
They put the switch that is not an accident somebody had a good time making that
Nope
This is making me feel really bad
You're rooting for the dog to get away?
We cannot kill this dog I'm gonna spare you. I'm so sorry does anyone want this dog
We'll send it out to somebody on patreon you're gonna get a second chance in life.
I Didn't kill the dog, but I did kill the mood. See you later calculator
For anyone who's wondering this is how I do my tax returns oh
No, it's like it's bleeding
This is what I picture whenever anyone writes me caps lock
