Bro, show your work, you made a custom t-shank and we dont even see how its integrated or functions? I see there is another video on the bit driver at least, but show off your work post-assembly!
I've thought about it since I've been asked by quite a few people now. I guess I'd need to set up some kind of online store though. Would something $25-$30 seem like a reasonable price?
I wish there was less video of flatearther, religions, pseudoscience, etc and more video like yours. Please, don't be discouraged because of the low number of views and comment. You are part of the 0.0001% that truly make this world a better place. The rest (billions people) are there to keep the price affordable.
There's such a thing as a 3D metal printer? Boy am I behind the times. I have an SAK S557 (from Victorinox but originally a Wegner design) that has the "universal wrench" (a euphemism at best), and I'd love to see a bit adapter that can slide onto that, or onto the Phillips driver. Something that could be carried separately along with a bit kit. Can you make one for me? 😀
Unfortunately I don't have a SAK S557 to work off of, otherwise I'd give it a try. You might be able to use the Leatherman bit adapter. I've seen some people use that with the bottle cap lifter and Phillips driver on the 91mm versions.
The search term for the controller is in the video description. Otherwise you just need a Nema 17 motor, 12V power supply with a barrel jack, female barrel jack and some wire connectors.
I taught a neighbor boy how to make an electroporator from an AM FM radio powered by 9 Volt batteries and electrophoresis to extract DNA genes so I wonder if he ever was able to achieve results since cleanrooms and air showers re essential for biotech and for semiconductor electronics of how you would not believe how dirty his house was of drunken step father want to be musician unsuccessful rock star from Hamilton Ontario and a hillbilly mother online cyber swindler from Venango Clarion.
If your environment is bad/dirty/full of laws - you could always use alternative techniques. TMGT can be used with electroporation and traditional breeding. But even more surprising, grafting can lead to horizontal gene transfer (tested with transgenic Tabasco plants). But adding electroporation should increase the probability. Selecting two plants that can survive a craft is now the biggest problem (but it is surprising how many plants can be crafter). And those plants can be even crafted in dirty places
Such a kid's mother died drunk driving so I was the only one on my street with my moiher who went to her funeral service since police were always raiding their house while local retailers had posters behind counters to not let them in. His sister went to a sanitarium. Only later I discovered how they were incredibly wild delinquents they would cook live kittens to death in a clothes dryer to evoke a local fire marshal's warnings they used a rope around a toddler's neck to walk a toddler, bayoneted baby dolls,, defecated on yards, etc.
Thank you so much for empowering me with this knowledge. Now i can scare the living hell out of my colleagues by disassembling a pipette and then reassemble it again.
@@simonbutler377 hence I said it's a step down. But it can still be plenty of strength / capability for most tasks. I also designed a scale that holds a quarter inch bit that uses plastic.
The walls of the socket look extremely thin, like it would break if you apply some medium force. Maybe you can add a steel ring around the socket or something to it to give it strength so it just doesn't crack? I feel it needs something holding it from tearing itself apart. the idea is cool
Very nice craftsmanship! I think you could just take something like a Cybertool with the 4mm driver and add an adapter to allow it to take 1/4" bits. Or you could take the driver from the Cybertool and mod that onto a different model to make something else (like a Yeoman). Of course, you would have to carry the adapter around with you. But, you're already needing to carry bits, so it doesn't add much.
Thanks. The idea was to replace a tool that's on most SAKs which I don't really use (corkscrew) without adding a cybertool layer to keep it thinner. Also the cybertool models are pretty expensive so I'd be less willing to modify one.
@@qosmoschem Your points are true, of course. I actually use the corkscrew for its intended purpose but also to hold Firefly tinder and an eyeglass screwdriver. A lot of people do find the corkscrew to be useless though. Your design decision makes a lot of sense in that case. You certainly do some beautiful work!
Agreed (that was why I chose the 1/4 inch originally), but it might be nice to have both options. I imagine the 4mm would fit the original profile better for example.
You should be able to find it by searching for: handheld spectroscope 55mm. The links change fairly often but here is an example: www.amazon.com/TEKCOPLUS-Handheld-Diffraction-Spectroscope-Gemological/dp/B01HNRVY3Y/ref=sr_1_fkmr0_1?crid=3UFLA4T931WM7&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.cihCUFztR9KBXzVPirBO1kMHkSmiE9agGe7ROZI_LUq8MBnyWQWJnANJ8xEtHZe_4ADagbFVYHIsG8OGk7CY0A.F70IDcqNufrmAWrzGD4G8VhXS5nlssK5sDIAlBwG9G8&dib_tag=se&keywords=handheld+spectroscope+55mm&qid=1720506953&sprefix=handheld+spectroscope+55mm%2Caps%2C265&sr=8-1-fkmr0
The main design consideration was to find a brushless motor with a shaft running through both ends. The one I found is linked in the video description. The 3D printed parts are designed specifically for this motor. If you use a different motor, you will likely need to modify the design to fit. The rotor on top mounts through a threaded rod that is clamped in place with a nose cone that comes with the motor.
I haven't had any problems so far but I haven't really stress tested it yet either. It's so easy and fast to print a new one that I'm not really worried about it though. I guess you could always get it metal 3D printed if you wanted extra durability.
If you're looking to spin larger volumes maybe consider checking out my Slowmo centrifuge. I think you could probably run it with 50mL tubes. It has lower RPM but better torque.
It's a ZK-SMC02 stepping motor controller + driver and has a speed range of 0.1-999rpm (1-9999 pulses) according to the seller datasheet. I'm not sure what you mean with 12000hz frequency.
@@qosmoschem since the stepper motors tend to be 200 steps per revolution, The from the internal controller that go to the driver or what I'm referring to. The reason I was asking is because I like how it appears to have a semi soft start feature. And the one I'm looking at, I'm hoping it has that same feature.
Hi, I recently purchased the sensor, and I'm having a problem with the code. I'm using an Arduino Nano on the Arduino IDE, and I can't download the <NDIR_SoftwareSerial.h> library, despite following the companies instruction. Do you know how I could fix this issue? Any tips about wiring would be appreciated too. Thanks!

WHich software are you using for the tool you built? I am loving the build! Could this also capture spectrum from glowing metals maybe [Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy = LIBS]?
I use SpectraGryph for the spectrum analysis. I'm not familiar with LIBS, but if it produces a signal in the visible light range then I guess you should theoretically be able to use this to detect it.
The reason I ask is that a handheld unit to identify junkyard scrap cost at present an astounding $15-50,000 ! It would be terrible if a DIY fellow could make a unit. [hint hint] I am thinking a laser or even a plasma cutting machine for light source @@qosmoschem
@@mikeharmon4901 It's all about precision. What is the minimum acceptable precision you really need in your industry? What precision is available for 15-50,000$ ? How much would folk are willing to pay for a little less precision/accuracy? There is a lot of different way to skin a cat in analytical chemistry analysis. A quick search on the topic and I find a "Handheld XRF Analyzer". It use X ray fluorescence to analyse various metal % in a fast, accurate and non destructive way. For a junkyard scrap, you don't care about the "non destructive" aspect. So, it open a lot of cheaper options. The cheapest that I could think of would be a direct arc. Way cheaper than LIBS, but you need to replace consumable (electrode). I have not search to know if it does exist, but it's 'relatively easy' to make compare to XRF.
It's very good but I prefer small bit drivers made by established tool manufacturers over those made by companies specialising in EDC gear. The reason being that they are always better designed in terms of ergonomics, and you can get more torque as the outer diameter of the handle is wider in some if not all places. 2 prime examples are the Wera 813 with or without Rapidator (the 813R is the version with Rapidator i.e. locking bit chuck) and the Hazet 810BHK, which has a locking bit chuck. The 813 is the smallest at the size of a Bic lighter, the Hazet is about 1/2 an inch longer, as is the Wera 813R. Both the Wera 813 and Hazet 810BHK can be had in the USA for around $10 and are made in Europe - Czechia and Slovenia respectively - by well respected German tool manufacturers. The downside is that neither of those have onboard bit storage. There's a Snap On which is around the same size, with a pocket clip and a short double ended bit, but I don't like that one so much since the bit just slides into the plastic of the handle, rather than the handle having a metal bit holder insert. Also I'm in the UK and anything Snap On is exorbitantly expensive. But despite me not personally finding that your driver would suit my own specific needs, it is nevertheless well designed and manufactured. As you are in the US and Big Ideas Design manufacture in the Far East - and no not in Japan or Taiwan which wouldn't be so bad, but in China - I fully support you making this and it wouldn't be immoral to produce it there commercially, however it would be illegal and you'd get a lawsuit for copyright unfortunately. Despite being made in China, Big Ideas Design products have first world price tags. I like the look of their Ti EDS (every day carry screwdriver) but the price of it here equates to $162!!! No way am I paying that, I can get a whole load of top quality German and Japanese made dedicated screwdrivers for that money and that's probably around what I have spent on my little collection of screwdrivers.
