barman Posted January 5, 2013 Author Posted January 5, 2013 Thanks everyone for the great compliments. @nielsvdv, cool that you do prostheses hands for a living. Getting a compliment from a pro is the best anybody could wish for. Thanks Quote

barman Posted July 20, 2014 Author Posted July 20, 2014 So dusting off a dusky topic. Since the robotic hand I haven't done that much building. The raw video material of the Mad Masher Monster Truck wasn't usable for youtube, so this had to be redone. During my holiday I was able to shoot some good video's in the park in my home town. Watching Sariel's and ZBLJ out-door video's, I had to make one as well, they just look better than studio video's. Thanks to NXTchris and Jurgen Krooshoop, I have a very nice intro for my video's to make them a bit more interesting. In the video of the Mad Masher it will have its debut. Right now I am working on the Ripsaw from the Howe brothers. I just saw the video of Sariel's version... He beat me to it ;) I am using an XL and L motor to power each track. Today I could test it and the is decently fast, but not as fast as i would like. I think I also need to use RC motors for power to get some speed. 20140719_130628 by Barman76, on Flickr Sariel's version is build his tracks system and the interesting suspension. It looks great and drives even better. Mine will be more of a scale model, trying to get as close as possible to the real Ripsaw. Making the roll cage will be a challenge. Quote
Kelkschiz Posted July 20, 2014 Posted July 20, 2014 (edited) Can't give us the middle finger, but ow so cool otherwise :). Sweet looking chassis. Looking forward to seeing it finished. I wish lego would release some powerful motors again. The old RC motors are too expensive at the moment. Edited July 20, 2014 by Kelkschiz Quote
Zerobricks Posted July 20, 2014 Posted July 20, 2014 (edited) You can always use a pair of just M or S motors to get more speed Edited July 20, 2014 by Zblj Quote
barman Posted July 21, 2014 Author Posted July 21, 2014 Thanks guys You can always use a pair of just M or S motors to get more speed I think i'll put in a micro motor for just that extra bit of power Quote
Zerobricks Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 Thanks guys I think i'll put in a micro motor for just that extra bit of power Not worth the extra weight Quote
jantjeuh Posted July 21, 2014 Posted July 21, 2014 That chassis looks badass, very interested to see what you come up with Barman! Maak er wat moois van Quote
