I 3D Printed a Boat (World's Largest Benchy!) 

what no jiggies

@@NonsensicalSpudz absolutely NONE fr

I felt like replying but I didn't know what to reply with

Missed opportunity to name it Benchy McBenchface!

DuhHUT!

same I scared my cat

My first thought was the Benchus.

condoleances 🙏

bot comment

I came to comment this. Macro-plastic is gold for sure!

Call it the Megaplastic

Actually Emily really need to do more bigger. Cuz she said the life size but she still even not fit in the rooft. Okay petition to Emily do it again but more bigger, start!

Make it 4 times bigger. They can go get the 4 for 4 in the 4

@@KAK_PAN Also need to license Jan Hammer's Miami Vice theme.

@@lightning1896 Ah yes, the GIGAPLASTIC

I heard that if you discard the batteries in the neighbors yard the battery fairy comes and gets them

Can you tell me the name of the video you're talking about?

uss is for aircraft? I thought it was for boats

@@8bitarmory846 y'all tryna make me look dumb. "USS is an abbreviation for "United States Ship" and is used to identify commissioned ships in the United States Navy. The prefix is only used while the ship is in commission, and before that it may be called a "pre-commissioning unit" or referred to by name without a prefix. The abbreviation USS can also refer to any commissioned military vessel of the United States, including ships from the Coast Guard, Army, Air Force, and Space Force." -ai

He's absolutely right.

True.. she has to sit INSIDE the cabin....

And also printed out of Petg so that you don’t need to keep it inside, oh and use a DJI power bank or somthin

Make the steering wheel functional

Exactly 😅

Hmmm?

Fr bro #savetheeels #dropyourbatterys

electric eels live in rivers for starters

@@thehiddencryptid you haven’t heard of the oceanic electric eels! See this is why we must dump our batteries in the ocean! There are so few left!

Styropyro ahh comment

“We printed a small one and filled it with rocks”

probably depends on the infill. If you do variable infill you can probably make it bottom heavy enough for it to float. Flat bottom might also be an issue however, which is why you add a raft.

No, it is not. It's too top heavy. A while back someone redesigned the benchy to float a lot better, I'm surprised they didn't use that model instead.

you mean the guy that sawed the boat in half and then drove it :D

@@Der-Martinski And we now have the idea for another video. "Yeah, remember our boat from earlier? We sawed it in half and put it back together with flex tape. We're still not sponsored."

hello @hewfil1 do you mind sharing the community's link? thnx

Umm, yeah gotta give the deets on the Tuggy community! I've been thinking about building one recently!

I could use a tuggy

Link please 🙏

@@TheFutureLooksGrimm They keep deleting my responses lmao

and a backup battery too

they could 3d print a backup paddle, so obviously, bring a 3d printer

@@Ticktok_of_Oz Now we're cooking with fire!

On top of that, a small solar panel on top of the cabin of The Macroplastic probably wouldn't have added too much weight and, during the peak of the day, probably would have slowed the drain on the battery by a decent bit. It's all about redundancy!

Or sticks and a big sheet for an ad hoc sail

Why is this so funny lmao

Dr. Nefario!

@@Dailey100 We gotta charge the eels gru!

Spotto

Or the fact that it was day 6

I couldnt believe this. 3 kayakers left one guy in a printed boat without a phone or paddle on his own, at sunset.

Where could I find their forums?

I love that it gives me the option to 'translate to english'.

@@rayrowley4013 Translation: OOGA BOOGA means OOGA BOOGA (like no joke the translation did literally nothing)

@@Kalvinjj I know, thats part of what makes it so funny. LOL!

yeah, i think the reason they didnt do a coating is specifically because the youtube comments would say "oh the coating is doing all the work its not really 3D printed at this point", but i mean, cant win with the youtube comments anyways. and the extra floatation tubes are way worse than a clear coat. also at this scale, im pretty sure the plastic isnt pourous enough to absorb water all the way through. the wall thickness has to be prettyyyy thick, as opposed to the usual thickness where the porosity allows for routes into the hollow parts. they only needed it to work for one video though, so it worked out either way.

No, some aren't. You have no idea what you're talking about! Hint: there's more than one type of plastic, with different degrees of porosity!

I ve printed a lot of watertight things from pla and petg , it's only a matter of settings .. easiest way is bigger nozzle like 0.8 ,0.3-0.4 lh ,few degrees upper than normal temp few % more extr vol , lower speed and cooling ...

@@arcanealchemist3190 I really don't like these comments because the coating would only solve a minor issue. It's not like water instantly penetrates the plastic, it takes pressure and time. Sometimes people want to be annoying without thinking about how it really happens. But yeah 3D prints have these pores. The 3D printed submarine video proved this. Because submarines withstand pressure... Water gets in a lot faster. For submarines this is a major issue. But I'm going to argue that even carbon fiber isn't good enough for submarines... It has to be a very special steel alloy.

You're doing it wrong if your prints are porous.

I love that someone noticed….. yes

@@EmilyTheEngineer 😂😂😆

@EmilyTheEngineer bruh 💀.

The amount of energy that's in an empty battery (below 30% is considered empty) is still enough to destroy itself.

@@paulmichaelfreedman8334 that's simply not correct. It depends a lot on the kind of battery. Lithium batteries, yes, they get damaged when depleted. Lead batteries, not that much, specially if they are kept correctly: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lead-acid_battery

@@almarma I know that, but most people think lithium when thinking of batteries nowadays. Lead-acid is an old tech now only used in established systems that have not been upgraded yet. And I think it should only be used now in situations where the specific properties of lead-acid make it uniquely suitable. Anyways, the "zero-point" energy (chemically speaking) is huge in lithium batteries. About lead-acid, I know they can be deep-discharged way further than lithium, but with standard batteries you do have to watch out for dendrite formation. Absorbed glass mat batteries have way less dendrite formation and can be ultra-deep discharged with little to no damage. AGM batteries are sturdy as hell too, can smash a hole in them without the electrolyte spilling out, or very little. I dabbled a bit with batteries around 15 years ago, interesting business.

if MythBusters ever goes for another shot at a reboot, they should really get Emily and Dan

This is the 21st C version of that myth

@@antonventura6364 Give him a beret to wear and its a wrap lmao

Or warp drives

Super nice touch!!! Hell yeah

I was afraid I was the only Star Trek nerd who noticed that. Thank you.

The best part was that you could watch the pontoons slowly move back more and more and angle outwards until the one failed.

yeah i DEFINETLY didn't do that

Good question

lol

I have never printed a benchy in 7 years of 3D printing. Fight the benchy hegemony! Benchemony? Whatever! ✊
