The Robot Hut channel is all about Music and Robots. Robots featured are vintage robots and space toys and custom built robots by Robothut himself. The music is both cover songs and original music. The cover songs are under the band name P.O.M. that stands for Pathetic Old Man, as all P.O.M. cover songs are performed by a single musician "Robothut" useing a Zoom R-16 recorder. All the Original songs are performed as Robot Raven. There are two members of Robot Raven, Robot Hut does all the music on a R-24 recorder. www.robothut.robotnut.com
The version that I have is identical to the last one you showed, except that the head, arms and toe covers (feet) are all metal. I would imagine that mine is a slightly earlier version.
I've never seen this later versions of Mr Zerox and the Attacking Martian side by side before. There's more difference between them than I previously thought. The looks superficially similar and have the same basic action/movements, but I can see now the have a completely different body shells, and the legs are not quite the same too. Interesting!
I will see if our DT has this in stock, they just built a new store in our area. Neat project I like the addition of the fan. How long does it take to 3D print the ghost??
Which Dollar Store. I checked several today. Also ,do you think there is a way to tilt to horizontal position ? If not a deflector. I need the look of thrust.
Yes you can make a new water vessel that will keep the wick wet and have it spray the mist Horizontally. Here is a example of a toy I did this with last year. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-_LeglLWdyA4.htmlsi=z_p2K5LWRl4fUO3_ here is follow up video. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-ejqmmpyCgUw.htmlsi=55UAebQuZxaRIbMy
Here is a video I did 2 years ago of a robot using the same system only it sprays the mist horizontally. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-xT2p1mSo5N8.htmlsi=anGF4OoCn3XvexGe
Yes my turning program on the 180 degree servo version was faster. Thats the fun of making programable robots, you can try all kinds of different ways of walking and turning.
Yes, old carbon batteries would be lighter than current Duracell batterie's. But by the 1980's carbon batteries were not around much, so this toy was probably balanced for current batteries.
Yes, not bad at all. Schilling as far as I know does not make any of its toys, they just brand the China toys as there's with custom colors and box artwork.
If this one buggers off I only lost $1.25 at least. And it still should make a good Jacko lantern fogger or a 3d printed spaceship / robot fog / smoke display.
After a $400 electric bill 20 yrs ago from a leaking joint at the H coupling from failed torque Donuts, I added a bright red light to my well circuit. The leak wasn't enough to notice a water pressure drop, but the pressure wouldn't go high enough to switch the pump off. 60 PSI. Have one on order since it will monitor the health of the system. Do you have a shallow well ? That's pretty low amps .
Yes, the well that feeds the house is only about 30 feet deep. 1/5 horse pump. Now the well for the garden and yard is 180 feet deep. I was on Amazon just looking for 240 volt indicator lamp when I saw these things and thought wow, for the price I can tell if the pump is drawing power. Sometimes when a control box goes bad with pitted relay contacts the pump motor can sit there drawing 20 amps and not even be running. So this should help know what the deal is at a glance. And since it is only ON when the pump runs I think it will last a long time. We will see.
@@Robothut Yeah yrs ago I ran that 115 light of one leg of the 220 . Mine is at 180 ft also. I can't pull it by hand anymore, so I rent a puller. Good well at 35 GPM with a high recovery rate. I pulled the well 5 yrs ago as the Gould pump was 31 yrs old. Decided to change it before it failed in Feb when it was 5 degrees. They make good products. I stuck the old pump in the shed as a back-up. Still some good companies out there. Not all are faltering like Boeing. No excuse for those rudder PCU's still failing since the mid 90's.
@@PeterAgostiniJdcap26 Yes that was my first thought, the second is a 3d printed robot or spaceship as the water vaper will not hurt the plastic parts.
@@PeterAgostiniJdcap26 Yes and add a LED light inside to make the pumpkins glow as the fog pours out. You can run it on a USB power bank or a smart phone USB. I also tested it with 3 AA batteries. Worked great.
It gives a lot info for very little money. We will see how it holds up. In my case it will last a long time I think since it is only powered ON when the well pump runs.
I feel your pain with well pumps and pressure tanks! It's surprising they don't provide any sort of diagnostic indicators on the equipment ... other than whether there's water coming out of the tap or not. Our old system had a combination of breakers, fuses and switches scattered across three locations. I'd really like some sort of indicator post at the well head so we can quickly tell if there's power at the pump, if the pump is running, and if the pump _should_ be running.
This device would make a great indicator at the well head. Either drill a mount hole in the well head cap or "or since the indicator may not be weather tight, install weather proof electrical box where the wires enter the well head to put the indicator.
I was on amazon just looking for 240 volt indicator light to put on the pump control box, then saw these and decided what the heck even if the information is less than spot ON it is still a indicator of when the pump is running.
I think even more of a challenge than building these toys was how to build them to keep an 8 yr olds attention for more than 5 minutes. This one is innovative.
I'm definitely going to try and build this! I'm fairly new to the electrical engineering side of things (I'm coming from a music tech/recording background). Would there be any way to access a copy of your schematic for the stepper motor/footswitch build? I tried to screen grab the hand drawn one from the last video but it's a bit cutoff! Thanks in advance @Robothut !
I am working a project not related to the Leslie project right now that plan to use a stepper motor for and I think the same circuit would work. So I might experiment with Kicad cad to do a schematic and PCB layout.
If your careful you can normally open and close the tabs twice. Now there is not standard gauge of metal used so some toys that use a supper thin metal can only take 1 opening.
hello sir you've got cool youtube videos its very informative. but i have some questions to ask, is the 270 servo motor programmable to an arduino uno microcontroller? also can i ask where i can buy the 270 degree servo motor? i need it to make a positional angle servo motor for a research project. I hope you can reply.
The 270-degree servo is controlled the same as any RC servo. So, if a Arduino uno can control a servo then it can control the 270-degree version. I found my 270-degree servos on AliExpress.
Can you post the model or link of the adapter you used? I found the horn without a problem but need to find the adapter and unable to find one. thanks in advance.
Go to Amazon and type in "kia horn adapter cable" you will fine many there. here is one if the link works. www.amazon.com/Adapter-Wiring-Harness-Pigtail-Compatible/dp/B0991CR9QQ/ref=sr_1_1_sspa?crid=3KC9UP4L31PRM&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.04SBzNRgt06cZh_-6dbecl3X3hozNSCyAKlquaOg4DoSSU12KcIVHfXo0F0HtNQEZ92s5LlZmH9zpIBSxVfLLPj7bjuVfB2SuCQHIYJiHpl7oUwABdFqD7sfQxYWkzKvTNUXv3EG8dWgjwocn2FBdBp7m73KFdQ5ARgEWAM9bSCNwCYAbfoA4d-0BxNhjIPgwsM9arO4vqFgAugvBYRnzlA3VRDembHBuRF2ovbfssU.d33l08s3LBKq-T7uoqqA1WCYDwZUAS6uvTtuVW99RPU&dib_tag=se&keywords=kia%2Bhorn%2Badapter%2Bcable&qid=1727143077&sprefix=kia%2Bhorn%2Badapter%2Bcable%2Caps%2C302&sr=8-1-spons&sp_csd=d2lkZ2V0TmFtZT1zcF9hdGY&th=1
