Hacking the Hacksmith: Wolverine

[@hacksmith]

This turned out so good Joel! Thanks again for turning me into the Hackverine! 🔥 can't wait to show them off at HERC!

[@Zachary3DPrints]

Hey James... you're going to 3Dprintopia next week?

[@WaffleTravel]

Hello there

[@7brhm4mlsy7fddn5]

James Hobson and James Howlett

[@chrisoakey9841]

@@hacksmith very cool indeed. Can you do one with the actual joints from a more flexible material so they can flex? And can you do the veins and arteries so you can pump fluid through it for realistic bleeding etc. like the mess required in wolverine v daredevil.

[@AndrewSink]

I love the mix of 3D scanning and 3D printing here, lots of cutting-edge tech on display!

[@3DPrintingNerd]

The tech at Seattle Children’s is amazing!

[@DadicekCz]

Blud calling basic math cutting edge

[@adrianvandriel4142]

Dude! When I saw the thumbnail I thought you had made the arm and claws using embedded 3D printing! I've just finished my thesis on embedded printing a few months ago and I'm always so excited to see the technology out in the wild. Really cool project regardless

[@UncleJessy]

Snikt! now this is one heck of a cool project! Also Bugman & Nomad Sculpt for the win!!

[@3DPrintingNerd]

Bugman is an AMAZING DESIGNER. FULL STOP.

[@PiercerOvHeaven7]

Snikt!!!!!!!! I read that as a child. Wild

[@rcmaniac25]

Now that's some handy work there. I love how you always get others involved. It's never "I got an idea... and here's what I made" but in reality someone else doing it. It's "I got an idea, let me ask this person from the community if they can help me out"

[@ASmallGreenBean]

I love that Seth goes out of his way to make something functional (with some imagination 😉) and doesn't just take the easy route by adding the claws! Props to you, Seth! - Thanks for your efforts!

[@3DPrintingNerd]

Seth is an amazing human being

[@ayol1011]

This would be such a good prop prank.. imagine having this in some cabinet for meds student. . Probably would give them a good chuckle

[@tomscioscia9869]

The hard part about this is that Wolverine's claws are also actually bone and they were just covered in Adamantium like the rest of his skeleton (except for his teeth, for some reason). Also, if he were to put his hands up instead of making a fist they would come out of his palms since they're "stored" in his forearms and pushed out by muscles.

[@Opala79_]

I've always thought about that. In addition, the claws in the traditional way were supposed to prevent him from moving his wrist back and forth

[@origindo1123]

@@tomscioscia9869 it actually makes sense why his teeth arent covered its because teeth arent part of a skeleton they arent even bone. teeth is mostly hardened calcium

[@rockinHurley777]

Also, how do you go from bone shaped claws to precise metal blades? Doesn't make sense

[@origindo1123]

@@rockinHurley777 probably because original the claws wer an implant and not part of wolverine so they were blades but when they changed it they probably new people wouldnt like it being adamantium bones so they kept them as blades

[@TedTrembinski]

Wow this is so cool! I am always so impressed how Joel is able to combine ideas and collaborate with other people doing such excited things in 3D printing! This is such a rad project 🤘

[@FSK1138]

Wolverine's claws cut through his wrist bones in the movies ... but his wrist bones are also adamantium 😆

[@darndangit4491]

They more slide to the side example in the movies it shows the anatomy of his skeleton and claws where the claws “unsheath?”

[@htw007]

Can't imagine the background time you spend on this video. Amazing. Thank you.

[@3DPrintingNerd]

Lots. Hahaha

[@mintyglitches]

"theres not many resources online for what the inside of wolverines claws look like" my guy, the movies have scenes that have literal xrays of wolverines claws/body which show the placement of them pretty much perfectly lol

[@mackea1]

Wolverines claws are in the back of his arm. They don't go up through his wrist. I always thought his claws were in the muscles of his forearm. That is part of the reason he has sort of Popeye looking fore-arms in the comics. Plus if they were in the underside of his arm, they would cut most his arteries and blood vessels in his wrists. Yes he has the healing factor to help but it's still a lot worse. Great model and amazing science. Hope it works out the way you planned.

[@punishedprops]

Ok this project is just crazy cool!

[@SharlzG]

Wow. This is some work. I know that this would be something doctors would not actually need to do, but I'm sure having them do this was a good thinking project and help them think more broadly for real future situations.

[@3DPrintingNerd]

Seth does amazing things similar to this at Seattle Children’s Hospital and he is a wizard.

[@sealdoggydog]

Shoutout to Seth because that was awesome!

[@3DPrintingNerd]

Seth is LEGIT

[@Sickzero]

@@3DPrintingNerd Funny how you spell LEGEND

[@Repkord]

What a rad collab between some of my absolute favorite "squishy pinchy hoomans!" Great idea Joel! Fun print, fun model, fun materials. Moar dis pls 🙏

[@michaeld954]

It would be cool if you made it into an actual actuating hand maybe a robotic hand where the claws can pop out And the fist closes up So you can do it like a prosthetic arm style with long sleeves and it would pop right out

[@offearth3d]

Joel is the man! Always coming out with something wild. I hope I get to see this at 3D Printopia!

[@wolffang489]

Wolverine's legal name is James so there ya go. Would taking the claws entirely out and just leaving a slot to slide along work well? It could be a neat progression to take the printed CT scan and combine it with electroplated polished claws that can actually retract and extend.

[@-RustySpoon-]

I wonder if he saw the video of the x-ray of how Logan‘s claws go through his hands because I thought that explained it quite well and there’s gotta be something else out there to help him, but it looks like it turned out well

[@RealSnail3D]

Cool!! Kudos to bugman as well for the design work.

[@3DPrintingNerd]

He is SUCH a great human!

[@BeardedPrinter]

That is absolutely wild!

[@3DPrintingNerd]

SO MUCH FUN. Dude. This was fun to film. And do!

[@Zachary3DPrints]

That was so cool! love to see it next week!

[@3DPrintingNerd]

I don’t think it’ll be at 3D Printopia :(

[@nathanbeilby]

before james got there the adimantium callor bone was al ready on the shelf

[@3DPrintingNerd]

;)

[@Neberheim]

I was really hoping this was a “where do they go” mechanism, but looks like the mechanism is still suspension of disbelief.

[@hen3drik]

This is the way! 🎉 very nice co-op!🎉

[@3DPrintingNerd]

I think so too!

[@bigreadbaron]

This is such an inspirational video, and makes me think of more things I could do with my Prusa XL. Are the design files somewhere I could download and try printing it myself?

[@3DPrintingNerd]

We all had so much fun making this one! Sorry, models not being published for this one :)

[@thebluestig2654]

Doc got it wrong, the claws are not connected at the root, they're separated, because they can be exposed and retracted individually. Remember that Wolverine is a Mutant, so his entire arm structure would have been mutated for the bone claws long before he got the Adamantium.

[@Violianom]

What an awesome video. Loved everything about it

[@samihook6863]

😂 Smithereen. Awesome project🎉 thanks for the video

[@leesmithsworkshop]

I am sure I will not be the only one to say the claws need to be coated in the Nanovate N1210. Amazing work 😀

[@3DPrintingNerd]

Thank you! Link and video about that awesome cabinet is here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pJbZf6CtiZKDrdU

[@torinux4980]

But Wolverine's claws retract back to his radius and ulna. Other than that, he wouldn't be able to bend his wrists at all. That's why originally, his claws are placed above the radius and ulna, and come out, pretty much around the middle of the upper part of the hand, which makes more sense. I honestly never liked the live action version of the claws.

[@raymondduncil5786]

The Smitherine is awesome 🎉

[@doomgolem5348]

I love that James brings out the bone at 10:50 but it's in the background on the shelf for the rest of the video

[@3DPrintingNerd]

Eagle eyes you have :)

[@YEAR-1-RELICS]

I wouldn't think it was bults that made the claws slide but a comination of muscils that push or extract them out

[@Skoposplatinum]

for the record Wolverine's name is already James Howlett

[@DerBums80]

I like the idea more, that the claws are part of his gloves. It would have made more sense for me.

[@egypthobby]

Hacksmith now need to plate the claws the same way he did his bones.

[@3DPrintingNerd]

Agreed

[@Agustinfig]

The smitherine was a good one

[@Kaskets3D]

Super cool bit

[@6FStyleCo]

Seth looks like he could be your dad. Also i think people need to think of wolverines claws more as like cat claws so he has muscular control over them. And his anatomy lends to his mutation so yeah they slice thru his knuckles when they come out but they should have passageways thru his arm imo anyway. I know there have been times theyve come thru his wrists but thats dumb and i dont think its canon

[@TS_Mind_Swept]

I mostly wonder how much of a hand it would actually feel like; as well as how flexible would it be if it needed to move 🤔..N-no...No reason in particular..👀

[@drumm3r_b0y27]

We figured how to get claws now guys. Now we just need to figure out to get some healing factor

[@commonfolk663]

Eh, tbh you probably really need some glossy metalic, I think doing same thing (that is metal plating) would provide much better results

[@dave61242]

You should have done the mirror image when you made the second hand so he had a set.

[@Dominik-jz3ww]

The guy kinda looks like Markiplier 😊. Awesome video though! 👍

[@3DPrintingNerd]

[@rockinHurley777]

SEATTLE!!💥

[@josea.estevez9946]

that is awesome, and I have one idea for one beautiful Project... Yesterday I meet one big and beautiful griffon vulture, in Taunus falk center in Frankfurt am Main, without one wing since the shoulder. Could you invent something like that hand, structurally functional, just to compensate for the weight of the other limb? when he walk is difficult for the waist of the other wing. thanks and good Job. 😍🥰

[@Scarlov87]

Nature would then redistribute his veins in order to avoid cutting himself while taking out his claws

[@NagashiChidorii]

How do you get Seth to do something like that at his job when hes suppose to be working? Im always amused or wondered how partnerships like that happen

[@thesharksurfer]

Dang it Nerd! You printed the hand twice but didn’t mirror one of them so there would be a right and left hand?!?!

[@3DPrintingNerd]

Hahaha. Thought about it but in the end wanted the same hand. I could always print it again :)

[@legolasstudios]

Smithereen is deffintely THE term

[@Yeet_master69]

I really thought they're gonna make the claws pop out of the model

[@3DPrintingNerd]

If we had more time that was a thought, but for now these are going to be incredible showpieces that live on James' desk at the HERC.

[@SiliconRiot]

A Muscle in the forearm that connects just behind the wrist and pulls at the rear of the claws to extend them when the muscle is flexed and retracted when the muscle is relaxed... Would cause an interesting bulge in the forearm during use.
