I made these to do a ridiculously high dunk 

First(I got 441 subs)

Second

Dang it ... Beat me to it

fourth

Last

Agreed

it is and its idea can also inspire firefighting tech and make it the global standard!!

Hi Destin!

Nerdcord.

You guys should colab🙃

Probably instead of using air, he would use explosives, and of course he would be bare foot and only wearing his apron

XDDD

one is a scientist doing a mad project, other is a mad scientist doing a project

I'm waiting for years for the collab

Came here to ask would Collin Furse have taken off his safety tie; I think not!

I think he likes the water jet. Don't know why..

​@@finjafeenstaub7459 Who wouldnt? If I can only afford it.

And stressing how hard it is to reassemble the legs

honestly I came here for that

if you're related to Ben... I am so, SO sorry (insightful comment btw, I def agree. Engineering is mostly failing lol)

thanks for that comment, it inspired me to get back to work on a project that I was failing at.

@@idontwantahandlethough Shapiro is a quite common name in Jewish communities.

​@@idontwantahandlethoughThe video has nothing to do with Ben Shapiro, neither does the comment. You chose to insult the guy using faked compassion. WTF??

Didn't need her this time for that, figured it himself.

Better than completely shattering his tibia and femur.

Agreed

They still together? Energy lacked here big time. Felt off. He seems down

@@Lgp2324 I'm pretty sure they had a kid together. So I would hope so.

As a true engineer!!

What does that mean?

@@Capt-Intrepid The deadline was probably this year 2023

Man reached for the sky on this one though

Didn't even have time for the Mrs to mock him.... I miss that part.

Came here for this comment!

Can't wait for the building size full military mech version!

At Kennedy they had a cantilevered harness system of some sort to simulate lunar gravity, and you could jump around a decent height and area. Something like this could be a safer and more flexible way to do this - he already has a lot of experience with pulley systems, too.

he has to make it voice activated by saying "Go Go Wighton Stilts"

​@@jmcbresilfr i can already imagine a hexapod that jumps with these

I want to say big stilts usually have tall handles for better leverage.. also minimizes the chance of getting hit in the face if the handle goes above your head

Score! Daddy would you like some sausage? Daddy would you like some sausages?

URC

@@RKroese wtf is that second line lmao

@@peptobepto a movie from before your time, I suppose

Except he never took the step.

I was thinking the same thing 😂

I wonder what wife thinks about this

I have to imagine that tool was at least partially donated by the manufacturer as a product placement (its well into the 6 figures and he isn't using it to generate revenue on a day-to-day basis [for example cutting granite counter tops]).

At least no one can say he is taking it for granted XD

that would be awesome actually

I want to see a foosball table that will play against itself. A lot of learning opportunities in that build.

@@AronDarling it would be awesome to see it play using AI on one side, and preprogrammed algorithms on the other side

Great idea!

I honestly think that would be too easy for him.

This is exactly right except for one key point: these videos are made for entertainment as much as education and it might be worth showing the whole process being used from an entertainment point of view. I think a healthy compromise would be to make a scale model of the design to show the whole process in miniature to cut down on material cost while still getting the visual effect of the whole rig activating.

Yeah, I was confused why the seal wasn't perfected on one joint before making whole set. But I guess it's easy to feel like you're doing "just a minimal prototype" while you're making too much at the moment. I'm glad he did just one leg before assembling the other one :D

The only problem with that would be that the one seal would be experiencing lower pressure than what would be experienced with every leg extended. Like he mentioned that the bottom-most leg needs 10x the pressure to extend than the first - if he only tested the seals with one leg, the seals would be exposed to much less pressure in the test than the actual thing. Basically, the full thing IS the MVP to accurately test the seals with the appropriate air pressure.

All the joints have to be sealed, otherwise air will leak out and the joint being tested will not be pressurized.

I assumed he did test the one seal before making the entire leg. But obviously not good enough test​@@angrypotato_fz

next one he is in an air hangar for SURE

This is the same workshop as the last few videos. Just with tarps covering the walls.

HAHA

​@@Enderman0415 Well of course - he can only get himself... like 20 feet up in the air in this one. So limiting!! Lol

Huh?

@@ChargeNReact It was a joke. He didn't actually go to engineering school on a basketball scholarship.

@@DavidKutzler I must express my profound gratitude for your prompt elucidation regarding the intended facetiousness inherent in the initial comment under the aforementioned video. Regrettably, my cognitive faculties were momentarily confounded, and I found myself ensnared within the labyrinthine corridors of literal interpretation. Your perspicacious clarification has extricated me from the bewildering depths of my initial confusion, and I am now poised to proffer my sincere acknowledgment of the humor intended by the commentator in question. Upon revisiting the comment thread, it has become manifestly evident that the assertion posited therein, regarding the individual known as Shane, attending engineering school under the auspices of a basketball scholarship, was nothing more than a whimsical and facetious fabrication. This sardonic invention, delivered with a deftness that eluded my initial comprehension, proffers a satirical twist on the perceived incongruity between the ostensibly unathletic demeanor of Shane and the ingenuity demonstrated in the creation of the aforementioned contraption designed for the facilitation of dunking a basketball. In light of this revelation, I am compelled to express my admiration for the astuteness with which the commentator ingeniously wove a fictional narrative, embellishing the video creator's backstory with a purportedly athletic foray into engineering academia. The delightful concoction of irony and jest, which served as the foundation for this comedic stratagem, has now been unveiled, and I find myself humbled by the dexterity with which the commentator navigated the delicate balance between fiction and reality. As I reflect upon the intricacies of this humorous exchange, I am prompted to marvel at the multifaceted nature of online discourse, wherein the interplay of wit and banter serves to enrich the communal experience of content consumption. It is a testament to the creativity and quick-wittedness of the denizens of the digital realm that such textual repartees can be fashioned with such finesse, transforming an innocuous comment section into a veritable playground of linguistic acrobatics. In conclusion, I extend my deepest appreciation for your elucidation, which has not only dismantled the shackles of my initial perplexity but has also heightened my awareness of the nuanced dynamics inherent in the realm of online humor. May we continue to traverse the vast expanse of internet discourse with an ever-heightened sensitivity to the manifold layers of meaning concealed beneath the veneer of textual exchanges.

Not near as good as you guys

Next year he's gonna have a fully functioning ironman suit lol

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

The people who watch both seeing this comment 👀

A great engineer

I always call him "The most complete engineer"

With you on that. I'll be nice and just say that this wasn't his best idea.

For real!

and the water jet. I think he mentioned that 3 times.

*two* auto belays

yeah lol autobelays aint cheap.

She must have loved it.

Yeah, how do I know if this is good without critical wife reviews

I think it was so sketchy that he didnt even show her the video before releasing it... thats what you get killed for as a father, you know...trying to kill yourself.

SMH: The legs extend without blowing apart now!! Wife: Yeah but your real legs are still gonna blow apart when you use this thing

@@nilz6432 Totally makes sense, marriage is basically forfeiting the right to kill oneself to their spouse

"The design is very human"

100% agree

Simone Giertz also has trailblazed a lot in that area

Sadly he tends to cannibalize past projects for parts.

I'm not saying this didn't take a lot of effort, but compared to all the previous videos, this one was lacking a lot - there's no electronics or firmware. This one is basically just a bunch of seals and o-rings and some solenoid valves.

@@gorak9000 hey, you know what, you make a good point. In comparison to his other builds this one didn’t have the digital complexity his builds usually do. And I’ve often noticed his builds quickly become a Rube Goldberg machine; so much fun but the exact opposite of KISS. lol this entire ‘problem’ is solved with a small trampoline

this is probably a "quick" in-between project to get us some content because he's working on something more complicated

@@BPBomber Didn't he say in the previous video that he moved shops again? Don't underestimate what a PIA moving is and how much time and effort it takes to set a shop back up after a move. He gets a pass this time... (just joking, his videos are amazing and I'll watch them all!)

Also his day job is basically rapid prototyping/product design (thus why he needs all the gear he has), so this is all in his "spare time"

Yeah, the safety systems in his projects look like they shouldn't work or aren't enough, but are actually quite thought out I'd say lol

Exactly what I thought too! 😂

No, he gets almost all of them free from sponsors.

You see? The video made $10 so that means I can buy the water jet

id say he does that so the tool manufacturers see how much publicity can get by sending him their tools

"Throw me the rock!" Everyone just starts yelling "ROCK!" until it stops moving

Actually, thanks for writing down the name of the device, I've never heard of it before and not being native English speaker it was difficult to understand what exactly he was calling it throughout the video (I've heard "delay" and kept thinking it can't be right).

@@mikosoft oh yeah, that would be confusing if you don't speak English -or... French, I suppose?- edit: nope, I was wrong. Just looked into the etymology of "belay" and wow, what a neat word! Words are so cool :D we take words for granted, but the capacity for speech is so damn cool. Consider how many orders of magnitude more data we transmit compared to any other organism on earth!! All they can do is warn each other, say "hey bb want to get sixy wit meh?" and "learn" a single new thing every few thousand/million years via evolution. Even before the internet (even before electricity, for that matter), humans were capable of transmitting more information (in the strictest [Shannon] sense of the word) in a single sentence than most animals are probably capable of in their entire lives! That's pretty sweet 🤗

….that’s literally the joke.

@@CGagnon5 We know. It's inception, the movie plot, not the actual meaning of the word. Plans within plans (Dune). Wheels within wheels (Revelations). You get the idea.

lighter/cheaper/faster is a choice for consumers to make, not innovators

@@CGagnon5 yeah, you can only have two

excellent idea

Hits the dunk stilts and the 3D moving basket races over and annihilates you

@@krumplin8992LMAO

If he does that, he'll create the ultimate basketball court- where even a newborn can be the ultimate basketball player if they can manage to simply hold the ball

@@krumplin8992 holy hell that's an amazing visual

Who’s Shane

​@@TheCanadianCommunistShane is the guy who runs the Stuff Made Here channel.

@@TheCanadianCommunistShank on deez nuts😂🎉

@@TheCanadianCommunistthis channel

Shane is a way way wayyy better mechanical engineer than mark is two of them are not even comparable

nah keep it strictly score based, i want a centralized meta

There is technically something like that for handicapped people. Engineering teams work to build solutions to help them pass through different events

I want to see fencing

"All this time" was only two months, hopefully he gets back to a more regular schedule after the major delays getting his new shop set up for the videos before that.

chocolate dunk

The GOAT! I love your brain, Tay. A staring contest with a giraffe.. Who thinks of this stuff!?

Well, *start* a staring contest with a giraffe, anyway XD

You mean camel

I wonder if clipless bike shoes + mounting points would work? Once you're familiar with how to clip in and out, the motion isn't too hard, and they're designed to be able to do that if you need to bail

That's engineering. Like how the idea of flying started with small wings attached to your arms, and ended in large metal tubes with 200.000 horsepower going over 600mph at 30.000 feet. 10% of the development process is making it work, and 90% is making it less likely to kill you.

@@andrasbiro3007 "10% of the development process is making it work, and 90% is making it less likely to kill you." I fuckin love that

Have you never met humans before?

Essentially this exact mechanism is used to lift stuff for construction. Look up a Genie SuperLift. It's also very similar to what TV reporting vans use for their telescopic antenna masts.

Anyone can make a bridge that doesn't fall down. An engineer can make a bridge that almost doesn't fall down.

doesn't that mean the engineers bridge will still fall down@@robertdascoli949

he actually has an object like that: its called The Wife

@@commentbot8081You have a comfortable couch, I take it?

​@@professorluimes3020LOL

I second this idea! I've had this idea for years and always got stuck in clothing items that don't look like regular clothing items. Like a circle scarf

I don't want to doubt the man, but most likely he'd get as close to the solution as with the hair dresser robot

I seem to have missed it, what parts here are printed from nylon?

​@@the_ALchannelall the black parts for the O-ring seals

@@the_ALchannel around 4:30, after the metal parts are done the shaft seals are shown being designed and printed.

right, thanks. Totally missed that. I thought SLS only prints with metal powders

The fuse 1 is a really nice machine, but you are looking at about 30k for a basic package. If you want to be able to print and load it faster, you are looking at 50k easily.

from a youtube diyer's point of view, Shane's safety engineering is commendable. From an engineer's point of view, it's still reckless. I know it's part of the entertainment factor (think electroboom) but for all aspiring engineers watching this: be prepared to be an order of magnitude more cautious when testing stuff. The time and cost of prototyping and testing is often 99% safety. (these steel blades ready to snap and fly up the armpit / the hearing loss in case of seal or tube rupture / the slack in the anti-kick-up gizmo allowing instant knee shattering in case any of the retaining blades give in / and I have watched the video only once...) @shane: please don't hurt yourself - I'm sure many of your supporters on Patreon would gladly give feedack (the diyer's version of a test safety review) and then you can deliberately choose how (un)safe you want to be.

Nah, man, these ain't no scissors - the joint is not in the middle of the blades

You mean all I had to do was not leave the ground????

yeah a collab with safety 3rd would be great!
