[quote="DaveL17"]Don't get me wrong. I love RoboCop.

So a little Colin Furze + Mark Rober + Destin Sandlin... :wink:[/quote]I never doubted your affection for RoboCop, not even for a second :)

I need to check out this Destin Sandlin of whom you speak!

It’s funny, my wife signed up for the Mark Rober online course, and, as a designer, she basically came up with things that I wound up having to make, but I like making things so it was both fun AND good husbandry. Here is the Mark Rober lesson two on “creating art.”

I know, I didn’t handle the diffusion properly, so it kind of looks like Tetris. But it was fun! It involved matrixing addressable LEDs, simple arduino programming, and welding!

Don't get me wrong. I love RoboCop.

[quote="DaveL17"]Saw this movie in the theater when it first came out. We pissed off so many people with our laughing (apparently, they thought it was supposed to be serious). I mean c'mon. The 6000 SUX?

Dead or alive. You're coming with me.[/quote]It’s definitely campy, but I watched a couple years ago and it holds up in its own unique way i gotta say. But yeah, the 6000 SUX

[quote="matt (support)"]This is awesome, but am I the only [url=https://youtu.be/TstteJ1eIZg?t=96]one thinking of this clip?[/url]

(trigger warning [literally]: blood)[/quote]Lol, I’ll handle it-[img]https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20220519/19c2fcccec2c1b022b31e290ee880da9.jpg[/img]
Probably episode 3: home pyrotechnics for the family, inspired by a Slayer concert I once attended :)

[quote="DaveL17"]So somewhat Colin Furze-ish, then?[/quote]Great question! While I love Furze, if I won the lottery today, I would probably try to become a high school science teacher.

I want this to be educational and kid-friendly but mainly geared towards adult maker-types. I plan to go through the math of the pressure in the pneumatic cylinder, the bore size, and a little bit about the importance of the inertia of the system. Add some of the welding shots I have (not yet posted), I talk about oxidation and how it is different for steel and aluminum and why the direction the electrons are arcing is relevant.

That said, I will be hooking up an absolutely brutal murder contraption to the back of a toy vehicle targeted at age 3–6. So yes, Collin Furze is amazing, and I literally taught myself to TIG weld because I saw him do it so much, but I plan to make it maybe a little more science heavy without seeming stuck up about it, because science is fun!

Thanks! I am delaying my episode on Camerabot 2000 to first release Lawn Murderer 2000- it’s a fun little project covering lawn care, physics, arduino programming- and a coring aerator at 140 psi welded to my daughter’s pink Barbie Power Wheels.

Neat!
