Industrial Robot Built from Scratch. Jarvis 2.0, The Full Build : Jeremy Fielding 104 

Awesome video

This is so impressive. The interdisciplinary knowledge required to make this happen is stunning. You are like the coolest dude ever

That moment when a robot you've built with your own hands finally works right. It feels sooooo good. Now, I've never built a robot THAT big or powerful, nor have I built a robot that complex all by myself. Jeremy you have every right to be overwhelmed emotionally. Self taught, built just by yourself, and "Jarvis" is one serious bit of kit. Well done! Let us know if you want a job in robotics.

dude I myself almost got emotional knowing how much work and energy you have put into this. you are truly an inspiring person Jeremy. the world needs more humans like you my friend.

Hey Jeremy, this is really awesome. Having kids, having a full-time job, not knowing everything about what you're doing, and still building a robot like this! I wouldn't know what to do with myself if I had your level of energy. :)

I can’t count the times I’ve had a mill job go haywire. If you ain’t breaking stuff, you ain’t making stuff. Some of the best machining lessons are learned from mistakes. You have natural talent. You were born to be an engineer and one that actually gets his hands dirty. 👏

"The thrill of victory (after the agonies of defeat)." That's what it's all about! 😎

I've kind of been browsing this series for a while and I am blown away by what you've accomplished. I work programming yaskawa motoman robots on a daily basis with dx100 and dx200 controllers. It was enjoyable hearing you explain about singularity situations from a "non professional" point of view. I am always warning some of the Jr programmers about their robot programs and the posture of the arm to make sure it does what you want it to do. High-speed maneuvers get scary when it decides its willing to snap its own neck to achieve what you want. Even after 9 years of doing it I still get excited when a new project rolls through the doors. Or taking the time to try and do it better than I had in the past. You are so excited and I love it. I usually preface my new programs with "either this is going to work, or you're about to see something spectacular." bravo sir.

One of the most under rated channels on RU-vid. I worked with welding robots for about a 1.5 years. Im absolutely blown away by this. I had know idea you were using strain wave gear boxes, many people don’t even know they are a thing. Having a home robot is one of my “life goals” sound odd saying that but I think I’m with like company so who cares. Any chance the Jarvis models we be available on your website store would like to build some with my boys.

Man, these videos are such an inspiration. Me and friend of mine just finished our master's degree in robotics and wanted to try building our own 6DOF robot arm to refresh our knowledge learned at university and these videos just hype me up to do this. So I hope to see even more videos in the future. Sending much love from Denmark

Wow. I've seen some amazing builds on youtube, but this, this tops everything.

10 seconds into the video, this guy already became my hero

I must have missed the original video showcasing this work and I just saw this thumbnail, didn't read the title and thought "Oh cool, Jeremy has fitted a plasma torch to an industrial robot arm." Clicked the link and quickly realised - No, Jeremy has MADE an industrial robot arm from the ground up.... You sir, have incredible skills, levels of persistence and thirst for knowledge. Bravo!

Fantastic project, as a lifetime welder and a WWII aircraft mechanic the only thing I would change is using steel for the structure. I don't care what the books say, if you want to to withstand fatigue you use steel, the real metal.

This has to be the most impressive project I've seen on RU-vid. I love it.

You are a living legend Jeremy, I had a couple of tears in the sheer joy of seeing your robot cut as it did and I felt your joy your immense joy. Thank you for all your projects and teaching and genuine good will nature. You are a living legend. Thank you.

It's hard to explain how satisfying watching single-point threading on a mill is! Nice build!

Incredible! Really enjoyed watching you succeed. I completely understood your "out of breath" and heart racing moment when it just worked. Loved it.

I've been a fan of your channel for a long time. Watching the progress of building this beast has been quite the roller coaster. It's been a long hard road to reach this point, but the payoff is spectacular. Thanks for being a leading voice in teaching the basics of engineering in ways that anyone can understand. I can't wait to see what you teach us next. Thanks for sharing!

You are "The Man"! You built all that in your garage.

A man , a vision, an incredible competence, a strong motivation ..... the road to success. Respect. :-)

A lot of hard work and dedication has been poured into this. Congratulations, Jeremy; you've built something incredible!

Unbelievably awesome. Congratulations on getting this far with this project, I'm floored!

This is such a cool project! I'm really impressed with how you've leveled up from tearing apart washing machines to build stuff. Not that there's anything wrong with that, of course, but this is a serious step up. Kudos, man👍👍👍

This is absolutely insane. Amazing work.

It is pretty amazing that you were able to start doing CNC Machining quickly! (It does help to have a more formal education in Machining because then you don't spend quite as much time putting parts into the "basket of shame" ) But, don't worry ... everyone has the same basket, different parts! I just want to thank you for inspiring many future machinists and robotics professionals. All of these skills combined takes years of effort and draw from wide range from Design, Engineering, Machining, Mechatronics and Programming etc. (And a LOT of dedication!) Well done!

i made similiar thing (partialy inspired by you) as a school project. i made two robots which are much smaller but functional. one uses 5v servos and other uses nema17 steppers. i can absolutely feel that excitement you showed in this vid, it felt similiarly when i first powered it on and it just worked as it was supposed to (finaly) even through mine were on much smaller scale. also similiarly to how two companies reached out to you to help you, two schools reached out to me to help me which was really awesome

I've tapped thousands of holes and I've never seen a single point threadmill. Back in the early days of CNC I don't think that was even a thing. And the accuracy to be able to do a second clean-up pass. Wow. Looks much safer than risking cracking a tap in a hole, which I only did once. Thanks, Jeremy.

Having been in the field of robotics for many years and coming across a whole myriad of "misadventures", I have to salute the drive and energy you put into this project and I cheered almost as hard as you did when it succeeded!! You did a fantastic job and I have shared many of the pains as well as the triumphs when everything goes right. Great looking robot as well! Congratulations! I can't wait to see what kind of new adventures you embark on with this robot playing alongside. Peace, Love, Joy, and Curiosity to you and your family!

Congratulations! I was holding my breath and very excited when it worked. It's been a long journey. Thank you for taking us along for the ride.

That scream of joy at the end... I truly felt that. It's highly impressive what you managed to do here. Kudos to you. Though I don't want to know what you spent on it, both monetary as well as time wise.

I used to operate a cnc laser cutter and that cut is easily as good as what we used to send out.

I love watching your work... and you being surprised at how well that worked... bro come on... I never doubted you. I learn from you every video. Like this video... I learned slag can be removed by working the torch height. No one ever told me that. Spent a few more minutes looking on the internet but searching torch height and slag instead of just plasma slag. Now I get it. Again... thanks man

I am totally blown by this video. My. first on this channel, and have seen a few robotic videos, but nothing like this. Absolutely, fantastic. I am hooked. thank you

You are one of my favorite makey techy guys on the internet. Love this channel!

Your Jarvis journey is beyond amazing and I am grateful for all the energy, thought and enthusiasm you express to all of us. It is a big leap (beyond me) from salvaged microwave motors to CNC machined precision parts, but the principles hold true, and your boundless curiosity is a treasure you generously share with all of us. Thank you.

Wow, I might have been almost as excited as you at this success. I think I found you at your 3rd or 4th video. Unbelievable how far you've come with nothing but determination and supportive people around you.

Need a relaxing hobby project?... build a robot! Wrong... that's one of the most stress-filled sixty seconds I have ever seen! Another great video Jeremy, as always, thank you.

I'm blown away and only one word comes to my mind: inspiring great work!

This is absolutely incredible. It's awe inspiring to see something so big and heavy move with such precision.

It's been amazing to witness Jeremy Fielding's engineering journey...from humble beginnings to many full grow kids dream work shop... His level of dedication, attention to fully understanding, and then improving up systems has become on par with the best engineers in the World... Bravo Mr. Fielding, Merry Xmas and Productively Happy New Year... Continue... Forever Better : Immer Besser -ER Miele Commander : AVCO : American Veteran Commander Organization

I had bed mill (similar to your knee mill) in my garage and I made splash guards out of Lexan with aluminum angle channel at the corners. It was cut to fit close to the contours of the vice and had clip on extensions for width and height. Worked well. What I finally did was to use an Acculube system. It uses air and vegetable based lube to blow away chips and lube the cutter. This system does not atomize the lube, which creates a mist, but spits out small droplets that don't become airborne. Full props for your skillset, I am very impressed.

What an incredible project! As a mechanical engineer I can definitely relate to the feeling of pride and relief when such a long difficult project finally works. Congratulations on it's working successfully! Very impressive.

Love what you have done it takes me back to my AGV project using stepper motors back in 1989 - funny thing- I remember I had code problems with the software assembler on a 6800 burning it to EPROM I added RAM, a serial interface and an LCD display and used a BBC computer to send the instructions - the code error meant it would not start and funny bit was me "giving it a shove" in the hope it would start, OK that might work with analogue but not digital. The stepper motors needed a routine to ramp up the speed or it would stall the stepper motors. The project was for an AGV (automated guided vehicle) automated stock control in a factory. The 6800 processor and all the clips was constructed using en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wire_wrap method it was all I had back in the day. Our family business was Blacksmithing and we eventually added MIG TIG and a plasma cutter to our stick and gas welding equipment, lots of changes back in the 1980s.

The sentence in this whole adventure that really solidifies you as a true engineer there was the celebration eventually followed by “I can’t believe that actually worked!” I don’t think I have ever heard an engineer who’s spent as much time on a project with as many ups and downs and lessons learned who *didn’t* say that precise sentence when testing revealed their success.

I have to say, every one of your videos I see is impressive and inspiring.

An incredible piece of work. We all clapped at this end when the torch test went flawlessly. You really deserved that win. I'm standing and saluting.

As engineers, its those first few seconds or minutes that the project works when you realize that all those sleepless nights and years spent working on the project were definitely worth it and makes you want to do it all over again. Its the same looking at other engineers succeed, gives a stronger and newer sense of motivation to challenge yourself further.

This is great content - I've been watching your videos for a few months now and always look forward to them. I'm a mechanical designer (by day) and recently have been playing around more with electromechanical - arduino & sbc's, and 3d printed parts. Just throwing out a suggestion for your Patreons - what if you did a build-a-long series and made a mini Jarvis, with smaller motors, and 3d printed parts using arduino mega and / or orange pi boards to control it with PC or phone app. (Obviously not with the plasma attachment - maybe just a claw) It's a big ask, but with some 3d printers under 200 - and the audience you are collecting it could be a great series that would help a lot of people get hands on with robotics and electromechanical design - might even help pull in more interest from potential sponsors - especially if you offer parts lists and links to specific motors / control boards, etc. I for one would say "show me where to sign up!"

I have to take my hat off to you taking on this kind of project and working all the way through it is amazing you are a very smart person

Mechanical design, electric design, cnc programer, cnc operator, welding etc etc etc.... your skill are amazing men,,

Hi Jeremy, that was SO AWESOME! Thank you for producing your wonderful videos!

Let's all take a moment of silence to remember the comments that gave their lives in the original publishing of this video. Gone, but not forgotten. I just can't seem to recall them at the moment

Respect for your work and sharing knowledge

Dude, so proud for you Jeremy. What an accomplishment! I could feel just how overwhelmed you were with emotion when that cut completed. So great!

wow, wow, wow, this is the most effort i think i've ever seen anyone person put into a video

The excitement after the cut, engineering is awesome.

Thanks for sharing your "Box of Shame". It's a real challange for me to work past my mistakes when I'm doing a big project. I can really appreicate the extra effort that it takes to record all that you do and share it with us. It takes a special dedication to get the framing and focus right, making sure the battries are charged, remembering to remove lens caps and press record, managing the sd cards and files, dealing with corrupted files, editing and uploading. It takes a lot of extra work to create the quality content that you provide and I for one am very happy that you enjoy sharing your experience with us enough to go that extra 10 miles!

This is an amazing build! Most of all I love the wisdom you impart failure, perseverance, and challenging yourself to do new and difficult things. I personally am a musician. As an artist, it is so easy to just coast along in your comfort zone. You've demonstrated the reward that comes from trying something new and maybe a bit scary. Thank you so much!

I imagine there is a lot of self-satisfaction in completing such a detailed project. Well done.

Jeremy is perhaps the most lit of the makers on RU-vid - to pull off a project like this... there are companies that fail trying to do exactly this. Seriously amazing!

Amazing! I found this channel when you were making new things from junk people were throwing away. Now this!... You have done so many amazing things and I love watching these with my family. WHOOOO! AMAZING! Good job!

I have been watching your videos for a few years even when you were collecting parts from washing machines. You have a wonderful attitude about life and I'm sure your children really look up to you. As a parent I strive to be like you, you inspire and motivate many people pls keep it up.

This is EPIC that one person can do so many things by himself. I think the outstanding thing is that one person has access to all resources to do such a thing. And only 870k subs :/ for such a masterpiece.

What a project!!! Congrats!!

I'm sooo happy for your project. I could see the happiness in you when it worked and that is what inspires my to build my own projects. Great work Sir.

Wow, you have come such a long way from pulling apart a treadmill to make a bandsaw :) Outstanding.

This is absolutely amazing, Jeremy. I've been watching your skills grow ever since you upgraded your little bench top bandsaw. I am tremendously impressed with your dedication to learning and making and your willingness to share along the way. Thank you!

My hats off to you. Robot arms are one of the most complex machines we have in use in the modern age. Building one yourself is a testament to your skill, experience and abilities.

Wow, all your hard work has paid off. That is very impressive.

I felt that when it worked bro, been watching you build this for a while and that sense of relief and the final win....epic!

I am so happy for you amazed by you and proud for you. You have the luckiest family I know bless you my brother.

I like your can do attitude, so many think they can't. I never give up either... well almost never, Sometimes you just have to rethink things so let's not call it giving up, maybe more of a restart. Great video!

Has CNC mill for 2 months - builds incredible robotic arm!! Bro you're a genius!!

Fantastic! Your perseverance is great. Thank you for sharing.

Seeing your Kid qnd imaging what this moment meant for him fells me with joy. May you two have the most wonderful time together!

waaww..this is serious...I'm speechless..you have my deep respect...that level of complexity..just amazing

Happy for you! Right on!

Thank you Jeremy Fielding

Great Video. You seem to be a humble human being. Glad you are here man. Greetings from Germany.

Just as a shredder is an office device to turn a ream of paper into three bin-liners of paper straw, so a cnc mill is a workshop device for turning a 1 lb block of metal into an acre of oily swarf. Awesome project, stupendous achievement 🌞

6:05 I know that FIGJAM feeling. Well done Jeremy!!!

Congratulations! You continue to inspire me to push myself and my abilities. Keep up the great work!

So many skills involve. 1person. Just love it!! Awesome project !!

9TB of video, wow! Awesome build Jeremy, thank you for taking the time to share it with us. Cool tip re slowing down the feed and coolant. That successful plasma test must have been the most amazing feeling of triumph! I don't know how you didn't run out into the street to show all and sundry to come see the fruits of your 18 months of labour! Now "all" you need to do is add locomotion to Jarvis and program it to make a copy of itself - almost like a von probe ;) Thank you Jeremy.

That's impressive. Well done.

I am sending this to an engineer friend who I think is struggling for inspiration or motivation. The fact you did this on your own in your garage is truly amazing. Even got me motivated to do some more projects.

wow I came to Jeremy's channel to learn about motors so I could understand how to do this project, and the man has not only beat me to it, he has documented it! such good content. we are very lucky to have you Jeremy!

I tip my hat to you amigo! So inspirational, great head on your shoulders, you are certainly someone to look up to. Thank you sir! 👏👏👏

Watching what you do makes my heart cries with joy as I vicariously live through your works! My being a Robotics Enthusiast to watch/follow *_"Your Robotic Build From Scratch"_* in the privacy of your home workshop is totally epic on another level, let alone a testament to your underrated Innate Genius! ... There are two kinds of minds in a junkyard! One that sees junk and the other that sees Parts and Assemblies! In an SHTF scenario, the ladder (YOU) would be priceless!

Wow from working on a motor and now we're building a robot. Congrats, J.

16:30 we all know that feeling! Congrats Jeremy!

Jeremy, Congratulations on getting Jarvis to do what you asked it to do! I know the pure elation you feel after struggling with something for a period of time then finally getting it to work. Such an incredible feeling.

Jeremy, your amazing. Followed you from salvaging motors from old treadmills and washers found on the curb to build a 6 axis robot from scratch!!!! Aaaaaaa! Wow! So impressed!

Really proud of you man. I've been following you on this journey since the beginning and what an endeavor. Never stop learning and sharing, you are the GOAT.

Wow! Congratulations Jeremy this is one of the best vids I’ve watched on RU-vid. Amazing stuff👏

Thread milling is just ... *chef's kiss*

Dude! That’s REALLY impressive! Excellent work!! Congrats

It’s been awhile since I’ve stopped by and always loved your channel. OMG!!! That was amazing and I caught myself jumping up and down with you!! And possibly a tear. Fantastic job and your kids have a hero of a father. Best to you my friend. Be well

AWSOME! Congrats! Been loving watching this come together.
