How to use Magnets for "Wireless" Electrical Connections! | Great for Cosplay Helmets! |

[@veronikaderbeneva1709]

I SOOOO love this video !! In april, 2 years ago, just before that pandemic started, 2 colleeges found an old motorcycle helmet lying on the parking place. They laughed and wanted to throw that out, because it is not safe for driving. And then I went by, guess I came after some things needed for work. I said that NO WAY they will throw it out!! Wanted to make an Iron Man helmet out of it. Glued all the cracked places with epoxy + soda (makes a solid plastic), cleaned everything from stickers/scratches and then started to work. I am visually impaired, so I have no car or motorcycle, that's why - no garage. So I did everything at home and coloring - outside, guarding it from cats and gids and reading comics, while the color is drying. As I don't see well and had completely no experience, it took me 6 times to do end re-do the helmet coloring and like 5 times to re-do the visor. Re-doing wasn't easy, because the mistake was noticed after making holes in visor and attaching those LED eyes showed in the video. Waited them from UK for 2 weeks (I'm from Latvia)! Noone wanted to help me with advices, except one friend, who lives far away, that's why everything was done by watching KZbin. So, I took my helmet 300 km from here and asked my dad, why the color makes the small dots every time, and then he said that I won't ever succeed and make it look perfect because the helmet itself is not... So he convinced me to leave it there and now I'm sooo sad :( He said I should collect money for a new helmet :( Now started to make a cosplay Winter Soldier arm from EVA foam. Hoping to get experience and make a whole Iron Man suit in the future :) So, if there is a givaway and you send the props worldwide, I woul like to participate! IronMan helmet pictures and process can be shared if someone is interested and can find me on Facebook

Genius! Really love how you explain the process! Thank you once again for sharing your knowledge with us all!

Iam going to 3d print a iron man helmet and try to follow your step thanks for the great video 🌈

the magnetic electric surge idea is awesome

Thanks dude! Hahaha

[@laylahingram838]

absolutely ❤❤❤ this tutorial ... helped so so much. thank you

[@HeyItsRed_]

Can't wait to do this! I just made my first helmet and it was too small so I'm going to give it to my little cousin for his birthday and make a new helmet with lights and magnets

[@FranklyBuilt]

That’s awesome!

[@mrbobjob8995]

Cool

[@gettingfitat5015]

You're funny dude...you're "quick barbaric install" will probably look 1000 times better than my most "patient, intrictae, neatly done" install! Great vid dude! Thanks!! ;-)

[@seeminglyRANDOM88]

Wonderful tutorial and amazing work as always! Keep it up!

[@Susthethird]

Thank you for teaching me how! This will be so useful in my project!

[@Noob121w]

This video is super helpful

[@paulviana838]

just finished one with help of your videos. Thank you very cool

[@XSelianBladeX]

I was your 100th link. You're welcome!

[@drdisinfectant8714]

Awesome man, super cool to see the diy process of the same helmet that is up for a giveaway. Hope to win, cheers man

[@derek750]

Great outro! 🤙🏼

[@ironman_kyne25]

GENIUS 🧠✨

[@raymondgonzales2536]

I love your videos and imma make a suite of my own

[@zoemeow7677]

magic✨

[@infinity-yo4qr]

looks great! how did you attach the led eyes beforehand though?

[@dogewithchanga3326]

i wonder if you put in servos as well if it would work and turn off the leds Only concern I have for this is the magnets as you said it would release only by directly taking it off and I wonder if the servos move it direct enough to do so.

[@KyoticDaOne]

It would be so awesome if you did a expanded tutorial with meshmixer of how get those perfect plain cuts

[@redhedcompwiz]

Awesome video! This is probably a stupid question but, is it dangerous if the magnets are touching your head. Are you going to get shocked or something by touching your skin to the contacts?

[@JamesJohnson-dc1kd]

love your builds in the process of building a helmet .... quick question do you use just white for the eyes or are you using the light blue

[@monkeysockers8695]

Light blue I think?

[@JamesJohnson-dc1kd]

@@monkeysockers8695 i just grabbed both lol

[@Yop75015]

Hi Francky. Very good work. Have you done a live concerning a mechanism for the helmet ? Thanks

[@FranklyBuilt]

Kind of yes

[@peebs2424]

Do you use this technique with your crashworks board, with the left & right led eyes having their own outputs? Electrically it would be fine joining them to one common point but you would lose individual control

[@FranklyBuilt]

I do! Just like you said I give up left/right control

[@peebs2424]

@@FranklyBuilt perfect thanks. I guess you could use two smaller purse magnets on The one raft if you really wanted individual control. Only scenario I can think of is battle damage and coding one eye to flicker

[@dailyDIYdude]

Another great video

[@nathanmonsell]

What magnets did you use for the Jaw and Lower lip, I'm using the same model and there are not indents for any, Did you use the same magnets as you did with the faceplate?

[@mrbobjob8995]

Can you please do a how to make a flickering light Thx

[@cguevara9014]

Excellent job... At what % did u print this mask? I printed it right out of thingiverse and the jaw is a pretty tight fit TIA.

[@FranklyBuilt]

Depends on the file. Anywhere from 90-100% scale

[@mrbobjob8995]

I guess the link is at the side or top 😀 When the magnets touch it completes the circuit and they turn on

[@mrbobjob8995]

Yay I got it right

[@giannidallaserra6781]

nice video

[@MrSirFluffy]

How much filament should one expect to use if we print a mask? Would a 1 kg spool be enough?

[@FranklyBuilt]

MrSirFluffy one should be enough when starting. I remember using about 1 at first. Now I can get 1 helmets out f one roll. Make sure you watch my How to arrange 3D parts video about masks

[@ironcoleyt]

thx bro i just got my first 3d printer and ur so helpful for all of this

[@jacquimon9938]

Where do you get the magnet tabs

[@user-lc7ud3ew1y]

Can you still motorise the helmet with the magnets there?

[@FranklyBuilt]

Ehh not really. It’s usually one or the other

[@user-lc7ud3ew1y]

@@FranklyBuilt damn I’ll chose the motorisation then! Thank you 🙏

[@oliverd3979]

Can you see through the helmet fine when the LEDs are on?

[@FranklyBuilt]

Yep!

[@joshthomas5151]

i have an idea, what if there is a way where you can hide the wires inside the plastic of the mask it self

[@d-rockpain4250]

4th attempt printing cage for alien power loader (diff settings). If it messes up this time, then someone try print the file see if they can figure it out. So far every other piece flawless.

[@ethanleung4091]

What's the easiest way to get rid of extra paint particles inside the helmet?

[@FranklyBuilt]

No idea hahah sand it?

[@mooskee3160]

Is the led eyes flexible if not how did you bend it

[@FranklyBuilt]

Prototype i have a tutorial for that

[@arkinrai3871]

can i use white led eyes for the mark 85 helmet?

[@powerfoxman8623]

Olá . qual e o nome da luz de led que você usa

[@d-rockpain4250]

Oh yeah. I wanna win a helmet.....w lights. Howz that work?
