Building the Terminator EP13. Torso

[@comradeweismann6947]

This channel is unfairly underrated and deserves million+ subs. Also, thanks for the wonderful work. Its beautiful!

[@tristanmuehleib2302]

Viewers seem to strongly prefer machinist content with voice over explanations like this old tony or abom. This content with a good voice-over explaining the tools, materials, problems, etc would do a million views per video.

[@josephbooth8431]

This project is absolutely impressive! Can’t wait to see the next video

[@Issyos]

Awesome 👁

[@djbandicoot4798]

I honestly can't wait to see the finished product of this, it's so cool!!!

[@J0J0Z]

Just crazy amazing skill, Andy you are awesome !!

[@torchit2302]

The grandchildren of this guy will build a full scale, fully functional Autobot...

[@VovoRoqui]

Top.

[@jonathanjuanola8054]

Impossible to wait to see the end of your project. It looks like the best that I have ever seen on KZbin

[@EmonticonGaming]

Oh my goodness I can't wait to see how you approach the next parts!

[@redherring3110]

Nice keep going 👍

[@AndysMachines]

Thank you, I will 😁

WOW!

[@granpasgamings]

Hey man ;) ive got to give it to ya those eyes redonne was the best thing and now they work like in the movies. I am awayting the next episode cuz its facsinating work you do.

[@bobweiram6321]

I just realized you can do all,of your cuts with a bandsaw and or a jigsaw. Aluminum is soft and cuts like butter. Btw, Coconut fat is the best lubricant for aluminum. It's what Boeing uses.

[@AndysMachines]

Yes, a bandsaw would have been better for some of the cuts, particularly the curved ones, but I don't own one. I did use a jigsaw to cut some of the parts out of a large aluminium sheet.

[@bobweiram6321]

@@AndysMachines I forgot to say why I mentioned it. I am interested in working with sheetmetal and saw that terrifying finger snipper and thought, "Oh no! I'll have to buy one!" I then realized my bandsaw can do it easily if it's aluminum. Steel would be hard to do on a wood bandsaw with a fast blade speed. By the way, metal portabands and horizontal bandsaws are incredibly cheap nowadays thanks to the chinese. Grizzly and Wen sell a model with a table attachment. It was about $200.

[@AndysMachines]

@@bobweiram6321 The 'finger snipper' (bench shear) is a great tool, quick clean cuts even in steel up to 3mm, it will also cut rods up to about 10mm and takes up very little space when not in use. It won't cut curves though. I have owned several bandsaws over the years, including a chinese horizontal metal saw, which I have since converted into the power hacksaw you can occasionally see on my channel (I got fed up with how quickly it broke blades, and I can buy 20x hacksaw blades for the price of one M42 bandsaw blade)

[@papahamdrew]

Oh shit, awesome to see you back, this thing is going to look amazing. I unfortunately can’t afford machinery and metal lol, so I’m about to buy and start building the 1:2 scale t-800 from agora models. Lol

[@AndysMachines]

I was kind of following the progress of the 1:2 model when it was launched by Hachette here in the UK shortly after I started building my one.

[@bedfordshiremodeller4491]

​​@@AndysMachines The fingers on the T-800 we,re abloody nightmare Andy. And the entire hand was astupid/brittle soft plastic. I,m surprised that nobody tried to do asilicone mould the release agent so,s that nothing sticks to the mould itself. And just redo the halfscale T-800 hands/simply hav it all done in alluminium instead as it,s asimple lightweight metal to work with 🥶😫🤖🖐

[@Smartzenegger]

Very impressive once again. You know to what year will you be sending it back when it's finished?

[@AndysMachines]

I have to build the time displacement equipment first!

[@Smartzenegger]

@@AndysMachines First? Better finish the Metal Endo Skeleton, and find a living tissue donor from someone that looks like Arnold. :)

[@jazcreations]

Looks great... Does this mean we're going to see arms and legs in the future? PS: are using a heat treatment in between panel beating cycles?

[@AndysMachines]

Thanks! Yes, there will be limbs! I'm using aluminium sheets that are annealed to start with but because the curves on the torso are more subtle I didn't need to reheat the metal whilst working it, unlike parts of the skull where I had to re-anneal several times to fully form it.

[@jazcreations]

@@AndysMachines Keen to see the progress

[@grippgoat]

Big difference in welds since the episodes from a couple years ago.

[@jamesfield5346]

I see you use aluminum quite a bit. Do you prep the tools at all with anything to prevent buildup?

[@AndysMachines]

Usually just cutting oil that I apply with a brush, sometimes nothing.

[@ender_slayer3]

I am honestly curious how one would go about mass producing these things.

[@jigawatt1.215]

Amazing work. Are you doing this all by eyeballing it or do you have schematics?

[@AndysMachines]

Mostly by looking at pictures/screen grabs. I also have some 3D models for reference for general dimensions and a small plastic toy. I'm not trying to create a perfect replica and have made a few small design changes of my own. The endoskeleton itself changed slightly with each film anyway.

[@LifeSized101]

That's one nice hyper alloy combat chassis , I need to make a 1:2 scale version. Do you have some detailed files ?

[@LifeSized101]

I know my full size endo matters more

[@jeremiahbullfrog1844]

DUDE. THIS WAS ORGASMIC TO WATCH. IM SUBBING YOU.

[@bedfordshiremodeller4491]

Will you be using braided cables for the tubes that connect upto his neck/shoulders? 🤔🤷‍♂️

[@AndysMachines]

Yes, they will probably be mostly for show but may also carry power or signal cables.

[@stevenmarin6893]

OMG!!!! :DDD

[@millomweb]

Endo or exo- ??

[@AndysMachines]

I guess the chest part is kind of exo, but the whole skeleton is endo.

[@pascalkatzorke4601]

4 dislikes is from John conner and his stupid rebels 😐

[@bedfordshiremodeller4491]

You sir are amachine shop god " We,re not worthy!" Lols! 🤩👏⚙️🔨🪛🔧
