Very impressive! You achieved pretty much the same goal as Stuff Made Here with probably 1% of the budget and 1% of the complexity. That's a mighty impressive feat. Congrats!

[@alexhri]

I love how incredibly advanced your projects get while you keep maintaining the "if I can do it, anyone can do it" character. Absolutely awesome!!!!!

[@gorak9000]

I think you're confused, "If I can do it, YOU can do it" is Eric O's line over at South Main Auto. But yeah, I like how he kind of pretends like he's just f'ing around in the shop, but he's actually amazing at building stuff and puts a lot more effort into it than he admits in the videos!

[@alexhri]

@@gorak9000 oh no, that's exactly what I'm saying. By no means is this a case of "anyone can do it". It's the character he's playing: pretending that what he's doing is easy, even though it requires a lot of skill and experience.

[@Pelt_]

This is single handedly the coolest thing you’ve ever done, the ease at which you solved an incredibly difficult problem, that most people would over engineer, is absolutely awe inspiring, thank you for your content

[@darmichar73]

This is the only channel I get excited about a new video. Awesome work on this one. Can't wait for the next.

[@NicksStuff]

Since you went the 2D mapping lithophane route, you know what would be super duper cool? Make a *moon lamp* from a pumpkin

[@electrosync]

7:07 That's the spookiest pumpkin I've ever seen...

[@MrThonny15]

Hope you get as many views on this video as mr Stuff did on his! In my opinion the simplicity of your robot makes it superior

[@Alpha0ne]

I think you might have one uped Mr Stuff this time. Very well done

[@cranktowncity]

Yeah, Imma have to hang this comment on the fridge for sure hahah

[@randomname4726]

This has become my favorite channel, I love the way you make your videos. Have you considered running a second channel where you post longer videos?

[@sakemaki10]

Something I learned as a student cooking on my own, even dried or burned spills are easily removed if you just throw a wet paper towel on it and leave it for an hour. Hot water for best results.

[@cranktowncity]

hell yes this is the info i needed haha thanks man

[@keithyinger3326]

That's pretty awesome. Now all of your neighbors are going to be bringing you pictures and asking, can you carve this onto my pumpkin for me?

[@paulb8264]

This is definitely one of your more polished machines. It is amazing what you managed to put together with your homemade tooling. Keep the videos coming.

[@randomname4726]

That turned out really well. Very impressed, especially with how strong those lazy Susan's are!

[@eftorq]

80/20 rule budget and complexity wise. This is so awesome! You make it look so easy

[@yutub561]

dinged subbed and commented. great work my dude. i really hope your channel blows up, you deserve it. the videos never miss

[@chase_h.01]

Watching someone with thousands in equipment make something unique is cool, but watching someone improvise on the bare minimum is where the entertainment is really at

[@borntobattery]

so much love for this. you can actually do a transformation to you point cloud/image file to correct out the circular aberration in a simple sinusoid transform. You can find more on the wiki for projection from Euclidean to Riemannian space, then you can leave all your cnc in the box cuz who wants to mess with that and just pre process instead. lazy susan rig is sick.

[@Waldrehun]

I'm so glad I found your channel. Criminally underrated for the quality of content!

[@smellycat249]

Your freakin smart dude. I’m glad your makin videos.

[@jordanbennett6461]

Man is a genius. Also that exploding transition and jokes cracked me up. Definitely my favorite channel

[@Robonza]

Great video mate. If you got into laser cutting acrylic you wouldn't get your hands covered in pooh and all your stuff would be much lighter

[@unusualfabrication9937]

jankier but just as functional! this is an INCREDIBLE video!

[@sheanyquist]

I hope this banana spaceship of a project rockets your sub count to outerspace. Awesome stuff man!!!

[@RGCbaseace]

Non linear awesomeness well done 👏

[@gizelle-s]

This is awesome, I'm so glad I found your channel!

[@seancriggs]

Another epicly done masterpiece dude! Love your engineering creativity!

[@MrConcord75]

Awesome job! You are my fav youtube maker creator.

[@NotProFishing]

Cool af, love this channel

[@jeroenjager]

Whoah! Genius man! You rock!

[@spike7112ify]

Really cool. Love the vibe of your videos, it's let's smoke an Oz then go play with dangerous shit and chill.

[@stevesloan6775]

You are on the mark in this brainstormed design. : )

[@holemajora598]

Looks good brother!

[@KieranShort]

Dude, you are all levels of awesome. You look like a simple dude, but you are so smart, it's not a joke. I take my hat off, you're great. Keep going, your videos are just bloody awesome. I have a friend like you who is one of the smart person I know. Keep doing it!

[@p1kto]

If AvE and stuffmadehere were somehow combined into an abominable being, this is the result. Love it.

[@bartowl]

1:34 looks like you are building StarGate :) keep going...!

[@nefariousyawn]

You made this look a lot easier than "Mr Stuff's" pumpkin CNC. Really cool.

[@klausnielsen1537]

That was awesome!

[@Artismas]

You are a modern day mad scientist. I Love the channel!!

[@Zimbob2424]

I like that style cnc, I think it could have many use cases

[@AlbertFilice]

Suuuuuper cool man, love your videos! Especially the final cube one it was great. I was going to say you can sell custom pumpkins but you might need to set up outside.

[@gorak9000]

StuffMadeHere did do a CNC pumpkin carver, but he's far from the first person to have done it. I remember seeing people doing those LONG before youtube even existed (aka a LONG time ago)

[@gorak9000]

OMG "This is my very professional probe - it is a fridge door button [giggle]" - ROFL - that's actually the funniest thing I've heard all week! - Maybe that needs more context. Funniest thing I've heard in a long time as someone that owns a Renishaw spindle probe and a Renishaw toolsetter probe (though neither are actually on my machine yet)

[@trhosking]

Cool! A counterbalance weight for that Z-axis might go a long way to taking the load off of the drivetrain.

[@grantfielder]

Man, I'm so glad I found your KZbin channel, you're my new favorite creator. keep up all the awesome work dude!

[@jdattaway]

This is one of my favorite channels. Keep it up!

[@philsponsel3824]

your videos are getting better and better 🙂i like that you don't give a sh.. about cleanliness in your videos you just show how dirty the maker stuff really is no make-up no glove bullsh.. just the reality, keep up the good work mate!

[@redherring3253]

Your videos are always awesome, and have been spot on lately, I only wish I could subscribe twice.

[@dhi8518]

really do love this channel

[@bigdaddyshank]

That's pretty rad man.

[@mirono3099]

This is engineering level

[@Baxteen1]

This was awesome

[@MakersWorld20]

I get just as excited when I see that you or stuff made here has a new video and it's amazing to see you have made something similar to him at a fraction of the cost with much less tools and yet you have came out with the same results! Congratulations dude! Absolutely smashed this one!

[@seanburnett7760]

I always look forward to your videos man.

[@rehoboth_farm]

Seems like there would be software available for a polar coordinate system. GE made some welding robots that used a polar coordinate system. Otherwise, it's a pretty simple concept. You have a theta, angle, measure for one direction set in one plane set at 90 degrees or pi/2 radians to another, kind of like your lazy susans. Then you have a radius measurement from the center which would represent your spindle measure.

[@dirtdart81]

So damn good, you continue to surprise with your capabilities with the tools at hand. Great job!

[@toteu00000]

You always deliver with your cool and fun videos!

Great video as always man! Keep it up.

Your brain is on another level man. Rad machine.

[@islanzadi1]

Will never stop watching

[@olivrose9226]

Saw u on chickens stream! Love this robot! So neat!

[@FinlayShellard]

So nice man, I've always felt a lazy Susan was meant for greater things lol

[@julias-shed]

Love the circular axis looks really space age 😀

[@davidbeer]

Wow they look great!

[@kylem5726]

Duuuuude.. Nice work.

[@zrobotics]

Sweet project, that turned out way better than I'd have expected. Where did you get those lazy suzans? I've never seen any that large that aren't super flimsy

[@cranktowncity]

They were "tambee" lazy susans from amazon

[@truthcam1]

Keep up the inspirational work ...

[@W-C-F-o1k]

This is amazing!

Sick video bud.

[@chubbs9937]

Great video, like the machine

[@danielmcgee813]

I do say (stuff made here) would agree that those Jack lanterns looks great

[@aegis3d]

Impressive machine, impressive results!

[@sommersetcoker5455]

Well done dude! :)

[@rednecktech9485]

Holy cow! Mach 4 has integrated surface mapping by the way. Glad to hear you can do it with Linux CNC too now I will have to get my CNC back on Linux CNC

[@poopypuppy9412]

7:07 LMFAO Truly horrific

[@customsolutionsinc]

how goes it man? I must agree that was pretty awesome. You always have a way of pushing past obstacles that I really dig.... Nothing to do, but to just do it, right?

[@linecraftman3907]

Now it's time to convert the robot to do haircuts Maybe use a tool other than a spindle though

[@ramous5182]

Next logical step: a CNC made out of pumpkins

[@cranktowncity]

I love a challenge

[@nickwhitney1534]

Great editing 👍

I got to say bro you're the best you can make somebody's bad day turn into a great day just by watching a video of yours and that's no joke I wasn't laughing and joking but now I am thanks to you

[@ivprojects8143]

Seriously impressive! I love the unique style of your builds. Thanks for sharing!

Whenever I watch this guy I get the feeling that in past life he died sticking it to his torturer, refusing to repent some stupid thing that didn't matter in the first place. I fear his stubborness knows no bounds...

Really neat!

It boggles my mind how you haven't blown.up yet......trust brother that day is coming keep it up
