Welcome to the ProfessorBoots channel where I share my latest projects and show the struggles along the way. Pretty much everything you see here you can make to so it may be time to dust off that 3D Printer for a project or two!
This is very helpful for one of my recent projects however I'd like to know before purchasing anything if I can write my code for my arduino project on the normal python app instead of one specifically for Arduino. Great video btw!
I'm so excited to make this now! I just subscribed to your workshop and ordered all the parts. Printing the machine will begin this weekend ☺️ Thank you so much for this, it’s really cool what you’ve made. I’ve had my own ideas but don’t know much about the electronics. Hopefully after this and perhaps your other builds I’ll have some experience to experiment with my own stuff. Looking forward to your future machines which I’ll most def be making! (Forklift or telehandler?🙂)
Haha someone forgot i2c pullups. Rite of passage i suppose. You can use a 74 595 shift register on an SPI port as a cheap chainable output extender. You can use 164 i think as a digital input extender, i forget, you should double check. There are also analogue multiplexer ics like cd405x. The 74 series comes in a bunch of different grades with different features, some also work as level shifters, etc. The standard grade today is 74hc which is high speed CMOS. 40 series chips have these same variants for example 74hct40. They are all very very cheap and available everywhere from every single supplier. What to do with the bundle of wires going up into the moving cabin... yeah no you can totally get the tiniest little micro slip rings from Ali. Otherwise you could build something that translates the motion like 5:1 limiting the number of revolutions into something with two endstops and when powered on, have the device calibrate itself into the middle of the motion range. Real PS3 controllers are unobtainable. The ones you see all around being sold are fake. They are compatible but you only get basic features.
Hey, I love it, and I thing I will made it, but how color of filament did you use? I thing it's bambu labs filament, but I don't know which exact color it is
Could you make a Liebherr LR13000 crane, with counterweights at the back and a working articulating arm? Maybe it could use string to operate the arm so that all of the motors could be mounted lower for a low center of gravity?
The interesting part about scaling the dump truck is that IRL most of those trucks have electric motors in each wheel. I'm surprised you didn't just do that for the rear wheels after putting motors in the front wheels.
