Robot Hand controlled by my Real Hand 

You make me have more empathy for product design. So many things can go wrong in trying to do one thing right.

This was really awesome!!

I'm saving up for a better slow mo camera. You can help by supporting me on Patreon! patreon.com/tylerbellmakes

Your enthusiasm and excitement are just the best

Dude makes a complex robotic hand in a 7min video.. this is old school RU-vid at its best 👌

Man that content is top notch ! You cover such complexe topics yet making them understandable for all of us with great educational value. I don't understand why you don't have millions of subs ! Keep up the good work Tyler, the subs will come for sure ! Thanks for those great videos you make

Fantastic! And the amount is restraint exercised to not give us the finger was spectacular and refreshing.

Great video, well done. Super cool project. Wouldn't want to shake hands with it. Mahalo for sharing! 🙂🐒👍

Ah! Love it. This is excellent. You resisted the urge to make it give the middle finger gesture better than I would have been able to!

Awesome build! You should make a mobile version. Use it as a vise and have it help you build stuff. lol

The webbing that Mythbusters used looks like dyneema climbing slings. Check out the Mammut Contact Sling 8.0

You’ve already surpassed TheBackyardScientist’s videos at 100k… I honestly can’t wait to see the things you’re going to do with a higher budget.

Dude I love your enthusiasm so much

If you rebuild the hand to grip soda cans it'd be the coolest can crusher in existence

TB your a Absolute Mad Sciencetest or evil Genius, you pick. Wowsers awesome. I love myth busters. Can't wait to see what your mind comes up with next. Can't wait to see more videos. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work TB. Keep making. Hot Diggaty. God bless.

I've been waiting for this incredible build, this came out great and I love your attention to detail! Thanks for walking us through it. Keep Making!

Nice job , on the hand Build 🤘

Imagine when someone asks you "Hey, can you give me a hand?" and you reply with, "Yeah, here you go!" and send 'em this video.

This is really cool! If you want to see a cool engineered prosthesis, I'd check out Ian Davis' channel. He lost his fingers in an accident and has made his own new hand (and he's still working on it too).

Okay that is officially the coolest thing I've ever seen! I am curious as to what you do next!

Love it! Thanks Tylor

In case anyone is still wondering, it looks like the ribbon the Mythbusters used is called Mule Tape.

Very, very cool.

Hey, do you guys remember december 2027 when Tyler Bell Projects released the very first full scale Gundam ? What a banger !

The rope used in myth busters is called mule tape and it is used for pulling wire through conduit. Very strong stuff and slick so it doesn’t catch on things

This was definitely worth the wait!

Spectra is incredible stuff. I work as a rigger in the skydiving industry and we use it for parachute lines

I read the title in reverse - a robot hand controlling your real hand, and while it seems fairly dangerous to develop test it would be a great video. You could link up the system to your current sensor and even have someone else control your hand!

To account for the cable stretching, you could add a sustaining valve to each cylinder, like in old drum brakes, which would maintain a few psi, keeping the string tight. You would need stronger springs though. You could also use spring extend/air retract cylinders to neaten the cable routing. Extra levers could be used to increase power while reducing stroke, but you would need aircraft cable or kevlar webbing to prevent stretching. I've designed and built a few hands in my time - my profile pic is me wearing a LUKE arm, something I've been honored to help create for wounded warriors. Keep the great content coming!

Lots of engineering went into that! Really cool. I'd love to see a follow up episode if you make any revisions! Would love to see it crush some stuff. Maybe a soda can would work well?

I feel like a bicycle brake cable would work fairly well. They are thin, flexible, and strong.

Good job dude really cool!

Absolutely incredible as always bud!

Can’t believe you aren’t a lot closer to a million subs! Well produced, interesting, and unique videos are your norm. Keep it up man!

I love watching your videos! You always have such fun ideas

Tyler dude this project is super awesome, just insane really the type of content you put out and the quality, you're a top lad keep it up

Bicycle brake cables are about 1.5mm in diameter. Braided steel or stainless, definitely strong enough for a hand if it's strong enough for brakes. Very cheap and available online or at local bike shop as well.

Now mount that on an arm like the LEGO one that 'Brick Science' made

damn.. them welds so beautifull

I suppose it will save you from sitting on your hand till it's numb.

I have been thinking about making a more compact version of something like this for awhile now so its super cool to see another person with a similar idea.

Super fun! Would love to see a V2 with dual hand control :)

That was a sick build Tyler! I was really hoping to get flicked off by both man and machine 😂

High tensile webbing=mule tape. Electrician use it to pull large wires in conduit. Electrical supply store should have it.

Thats cool my dude!

I love, love, love your videos. I have been waiting forever bc you are just so great of a maker. I just wish your videos were much longer.

Awesome video!

You could add strong springs to the other side of the strings to prevent the fingers from hitting themselves too hard. It would act as a passive force limiter. Also, your grip problem is caused by the incomplete thumb/hand motion.

I wonder what Tyler would think about Ian Davis’ prosthetic hand. Everyone should check it out, that guy’s hand is amazing.

Very cool!

I love your videos!

You should try the next step of making a super strength glove, have cords on the bottom of the palm.

The main reason it can’t grip very well is because it looks like how an alien would try to mimic a human hand to blend in as a 350lbs mechanized man-suit. It’s not perfect but could pass at a glance. Very cool though!

Nice!! Great project!! 😁

so sick!

You do amazing work and deserve million views... Just make thumbnails and title on point

Finally I can flip someone off remotely

Give yourself a robotic High Five, man. That thing is great. Tyler, Merry Christmas to you and your family. And Lord bless you all in the coming year.

This is awesome!!!! They were using Tech 12 or Technora fibers. Spectra and technora are very similar but technora doesn’t have as much stretch.

Dude you so smart

Very fun! Lots to learn to maker a stronger version 2.0!

I wouldn't advise the "Wallowitz" robot hand application. 🤔

It looks like strands of Dyneema cording used in the Mythbusters video.. Dyneema has very little stretch and is as strong as steel.

Think i found my next binge youtuber

Use paracable bro, highly durable, yet very flexible, and the last stress test done with paracable was able to withstand 305 lbs of pressure, thats more than enough.

Can't wait for this guy to br famous

...why am I even surprised anymore?

5:03 it literally sounds like a sniper trying to shoot you across the map but he can't because of your ninja moves

this means it’s possible to make a mimic from fnaf ruin dlc

may i suggest flex sensors? they would allow for finer control and variability in the finger positions

i dare you to build a full humanoid robot controlled by full body tracking vr.

How about, Making a Better Robot Hand than the Mythbusters or Myth busters Robot Hand v2? 😊

I'll take two.

Have the finger input be analog like a trigger to get control over how far the fingers move for finer control.

i read the title as "robot hand controls my real hand" lol

He is now the ruler of everything

Did you think of using 1.2 mm shifter cabel from a bicycle? Brake cable is 1.6 mm

That webbing Jamie used might've been Amsteel/dynema.

This hand looks almost exactly like the one from ash vs evil dead

I was waiting for it to flip the bird

This was so cool hahah

Wonderful! Just a tad bit less power and some more friction on those fingers and you'll be fine!

A bit late to the party, but maybe some steel fishing line or even nylon fishing line. There is something called Nano Cord, its 0.75mm and 36lbs test. Even braided fishing line. Might be 2-3mm and is 200lbs test. I am almost 100% sure there is some b-role for you flipping the robot bird 😂

Reminds me of the opening to the patlabor 2 movie

based on the second I saw it, I think what they used looks like a dyneema sling

Amsteel is what you need not spectra, people use it for hammock suspensions and amsteel is known to have significantly less stretch than spectra.

He used Dyneema in the video - they are mountain climbing slings

bros making the hands for the animatronics from fnaf

This is handy

Why didnt you use Bike brake cables, my dude.

very good project sad i did not get flipped off by a robot though

I'm incredbly dissapointed that you didn't make it flip us off.

You could use this for a vr hepatic glove

dope

Try a climbing store to get dynema webbing for super high strength low weight/thickness webbing

My first thought was to make it give the bird

Use dyneema for the string it has no stretch

Next are the legs, then a mini jaeger.

nice

All that work and you didn’t even give us the middle finger😤
