Creating a ROBOT from scratch! - Finishing the body

[@goatmealcookies7421]

I am impressed and amazed by your creativity and craftmanship.

[@duketorres]

It's increadible. Reggards from Brazil.

[@CutTransformGlue]

Thank you!

[@michaelvonfeldt9629]

The pieces and where you acquired them is really interesting. Looking great!

[@andyball8707]

Hi! I'm revisiting your channel while getting ideas for a robot build and I'm just blown away by your precision and inventiveness. Thank you so much for sharing! I feel really lucky to get to see your work develop in such high-quality vlogs.

[@CutTransformGlue]

Thanks for watching buddy!!

[@TheLord0Ice0Wind]

That's awesome, love all the little bits and details, can't wait to see paint on this

[@CutTransformGlue]

Thanks a lot!

[@MannEMar]

Perfection!!! Recently found your channel and I'm obsessed 🤯🤤

[@CutTransformGlue]

Thanks a lot buddy!

[@tomiramone]

i love the design and watching your process is super insightful and captivating

[@daverico559]

Love the amount of work and attention to detail you give your work. Your videos inspired me to make a robot out of things I had laying around. It's my first attempt but I finished it and it looks really cool. I didn't video the process but did photograph all of it. Maybe I'll do a video of the photos. Thanks for all your hard work and inspiration.

[@CutTransformGlue]

Thanks a lot buddy, I'm happy to hear that I inspired you in any way! If you do a video of this please share that with me, Stay safe

[@leifahlman9636]

Looks really good!, I think you got the perfect path of detailing. It looks like a real robot. Very nice 👍. It will be nice to see it painted.

[@CutTransformGlue]

Thanks a lot!

[@clab9041]

Love your work! You should do an ink wash to really bring out all the little details.

[@CutTransformGlue]

Thanks a lot! I'll make a wash once it's painted for sure!

[@glutenfreegam3r177]

YES!

[@ericsainte290]

This is se superb modelling. Even looks to me like a design out of a Gundam anime series, a bit like a cross between a Zaku and a Mobile Doll heavily modified to suit for heavy work on a big space station or a lunar or Martian base... maybe a moon or space station diorama base (like in Gundam Wing or perhaps in Knights of Sidonia) to display the robot would be a nice additional project...

[@CutTransformGlue]

Thank you!

[@barryjack3025]

Nice job... looks a lot like the droids I designed for a few Tv show pitches... I like adding bumper bars to all the outside area also. Great work and good videos. On to painting!

[@CutTransformGlue]

Thanks a lot!

[@dxdx5638]

Thank you..always looking forward for your video

[@CutTransformGlue]

Thank you!

[@josephupchurch7138]

I love it, brother. Looks like the love child of a Gundam and a Maschinen Krieger. Very nice 🤘

[@CutTransformGlue]

Love to hear that, since both are a huge inspiration. Thank you so much!

[@Bat_74915]

Great work____!!

[@CutTransformGlue]

Thanks a lot!

[@collinlueb5980]

amazing, your videos are always a treat! The robot looks great, the sequins for rivets idea is super smart. can't wait to see it painted.

[@CutTransformGlue]

Thank you so much! I'll paint it soon :)

[@callmealen6785]

I wish i had a cnc machine just like you.. Btw appreciate your work its awesome 👍👍 😊

[@CutTransformGlue]

I don't own a CNC yet. I just have access to one in a maker space. Thanks a lot, buddy!

[@callmealen6785]

@@CutTransformGlue i made a battlemech from scratch which was inspired by your repair robot.. I have it on Instagram.. Check it out if u want to 😊 Link= instagram.com/p/CDVrDQZHcSY/?igshid=ts25vddcslyp

[@corneliusperkins7363]

Another amazing build. Your work is dauntingly amazing. In response to your question about whether we find the sources of your parts interesting? Yes, yes we do.

[@CutTransformGlue]

Thanks a lot buddy! I'll make sure to talk about that on the videos

[@postrofo]

Yes!!! :-D

[@standupjoe]

Absolutely beautiful work as usual. Really enjoy watching your projects come together. I look forward to the painting process and hope you can get back into your normal work space soon.

[@CutTransformGlue]

Thanks a lot!!

[@standupjoe]

@@CutTransformGlue Can you tell us where you get your MDF from and any specifics about it? I have mostly used Styrene, but I am curious about using it after watching your work. Thanks.

[@CutTransformGlue]

@@standupjoe I'm not in the US, so I can't point you to a specific MDF brand or store ... When I buy it, I usually go for the cheapest since it doesn't make much of a difference on the CNC laser. Also, I buy it on 3mm just because it cuts really fast on this thickness :)

[@standupjoe]

@@CutTransformGlue That still helps. I appreciate it!

[@lovehighlove]

AMAZING work! I wish more and more people will find you on youtube!

[@CutTransformGlue]

Thanks a lot!!

[@comontoshi]

Your work is magnificent. Keep up the great work! 🙀👍👍

[@toosmalltomb]

looks great! the shot of the model with greebling before the final primer pass makes me think of patlabor - something about the high-contrast, high-saturation detailing against the first primer coat, I think. I'm interested to see what kind of final paint job this gets

[@CutTransformGlue]

Never watched platabor but I believe it's an anime, right? Thanks a lot buddy!

[@MacGivre]

Repair robot with.. a gun ? Oo Sublime, in any case.

[@CutTransformGlue]

Thank you :) It's a powerdrill

[@tomgruber9211]

Its a cool thing!!!!

[@CutTransformGlue]

Thank you!

[@mark3208]

Great build. I like how you name almost all the pieces and where you salvage them from. I'm getting a lot of ideas. Thanks😊

[@CutTransformGlue]

Great, I wasn't sure if that would be useful or interesting, but it appears to be so, thanks a lot buddy!

[@punkbloater]

What i like about this model? Everything! I like this last process the most, finding bits that make the model perfect. I really hope you decide to paint this model, would love to see that. 😊

[@CutTransformGlue]

Thank you so much! I'll paint it soon, stay tunned

[@Gunrunn3rTV]

Searched for scratch build mech and found your channel. It was an insta sub, dude! This is so inspiring, I have to try this too! Seems much cooler and more creative than kitbashing Gunpla like I do... Keep the content coming, you deserve many more views and subs! Greetings from Germany

[@CutTransformGlue]

I'm glad to hear that, buddy! Thanks a lot for watching and for your comment

[@BlitzMekanika]

Destiny service bot. 👌🏻

[@aquatrout]

I love this so much. My favorite thing is all the metal rails. So cool

[@CutTransformGlue]

I'm glad you liked it! thanks

[@MaximilianonMars]

He looks sturdy, well designed, great! To my imagination he's so well built that although he's a maintenance worker, if a force in a war or defence situation needed troops in a bad situation they would reprogram and use the maintenance bot for fighting.

[@CutTransformGlue]

Gotta say I loved your take on this! Thanks a lot buddy, stay safe

[@adamteeee]

What an incredible build. Great commentary as well, a really well executed video. Really wish I found your page sooner, but consider me subscribed, video shared and on board moving forward! Keep up the incredible work

[@CutTransformGlue]

Thank you so much, buddy!

[@gilontiveros6691]

LOOKS AMAZING!! Very inspiring. I am currently working on a project and your videos help me think outside the box.

[@CutTransformGlue]

Wow, cool! Happy to hear that, thanks a lot buddy!

[@AirBEARist]

nice

[@CutTransformGlue]

Thanks!

[@gunplus5723]

This is incredible. It actually kinda reminds me of a mrvn unit from titanfall. During quarantine I've been very bored have only been building model kits bit know ive given scratchbuilding a try and I'm having a lot of fun. Thanks for the inspiration and keep up the great work 👍

[@CutTransformGlue]

Awesome, I'm happy to know that I inspired you to build! Thanks a lot!

[@mrgud7645]

First let me say - great work! I love your ideas and i love your building process ( and I hate your main material choice - horrible stuff :) ). But since i am a firm believer in constructive criticism i have to point couple of things that rubb me the wrong way (maybe i'm wrong so correct me please). First thing, the head. It has only vertical but no horizontal movement (can't rotate left and right, just up and down). The second is the torso - it has no waiste rotation. So you need to rotate the whole robot to use the forward facing head sensores/cameras or do a repair that is not streight in front of you. Anyhow, can't wait to see the finished piece. Cheers

[@CutTransformGlue]

Thank you! You mean MDF, styrene and acrylic? I love it, the first one being the trickiest to deal with, for sure. Thanks for your feedback!

[@mrgud7645]

@@CutTransformGlue Yea, MDF. Tried it a couple of times and didn't like it at all, but i work in smaller scale so there lies my problem with it. I work with styrene a lot and i love it, acrilyc not so much , brittleness and all. But i understand the problems u face in cutting process, and for the scale of your modells MDF is ideal.

[@CutTransformGlue]

I get it! MDF and acrylic is really bad for small details, like panel lines... I use them because they cut so nicely on the laser CNC. I'll buy another type of glue soon, like the liquid weld-bond one (I currently work with mostly CA glue because is awesome for MDF and acrylic), so I'll dedicate more time to the styrene stuff

[@colossalbigfoot256]

You have a huge surplus of unique parts. You must work in IT to have access to printers and computers. I do.. and cell phones. A lot of rowbut parts there. 😉

[@CutTransformGlue]

I don't work on IT, but I know people who do! Also, every household has old electronics and machines of all sorts, just waiting to be found, you just have to ask around :)

[@rafasamurai]

Ta ficando cada vez mais incrível !

[@CutTransformGlue]

Muito obrigado!!

[@TheKutlessrock]

It looks awesome great work!!! Are you going to paint it? I think that always elevates the figure design.

[@CutTransformGlue]

Thank you o much! I will, soon. I'm just thinking about finishing a base (diorama) first.

[@nikond90ful1]

Thanks for the video. Well done. Are you going to paint it? Keep safe and stay well.

[@CutTransformGlue]

For sure! I'm just thinking about making the base first, like a diorama

[@prithvirajdutta5094]

This is beautiful.. I am trying to scratch build a humanoid gundam based robot myself. Please do let me know if u want to spare some insights on my build

[@CutTransformGlue]

Thank you! Look for me on instagram and I'll definitely check on your build! Look for @cuttransformglue there

Hi bro what is that white plastic sheet you had used for robot and what size is it please tell buddy 🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@CutTransformGlue]

Styrene! Pretty easy to find :)

[@abjulunnisabegum878]

Thank you bro

[@sammerritt730]

Do you have any advice on getting scrap parts?

[@pandr7036]

Let me answer. You might ask your friends, colleagues, relatives about old, broken, not working electronic stuff. Look for visually attractive shapes in used bottles, shavers, cosmetics, toys, all of theese might be come in handy. Generally main idea - your imagination, how you use all of theese.

[@CutTransformGlue]

Just like PAndr said it! This is how I do it.. It's impressive how many good parts are thrown away everyday!

[@olverathespaceman6843]

How do you do the hands ?

[@CutTransformGlue]

Plastic tubes with aluminum wire inside, so that I can pose the fingers

[@LaserGadgets]

You have quite a few laser cut parts on your builds. What kind of laser cutter do you use?

[@CutTransformGlue]

I use a big one from a public maker space! I don't know the specs/brand etc

[@LaserGadgets]

@@CutTransformGlue Public?? You mean you take your stuff there, pay a small fee and cut stuff you designed?

[@CutTransformGlue]

we have (I mean, before this whole world situation) public maker spaces, where you could just go and lasercut/3d print/woodwork, free of charge... I'm just waiting for them to reopen when it's safe

[@CutTransformGlue]

of course, you gotta schedule and bring your own materials

[@LaserGadgets]

@@CutTransformGlue Be glad they did close. I heard brazil got hit really bad, because of your stupid president. He kept everything open. He could drive from house to house and shoot at people. What is wrong with him?? Wait.....free of charge???? How? Oo
