LEGO Extendo-arm!

#lego #shorts #legolanddiscoverycenter

[@tmtvids]

And if you are making it so that you can keep it extended without holding it. Use the black pins because the grey ones allow for more turning and collapse easy. I recommend the black pins because they are better for connecting!! Love the videos!!

[@Yoikumo]

Really? did not know that

[@pen-nn5nk]

I was going to say that but it looks like you said it for me:D

[@DuckInGameStop]

Yeah, the black and blue pins have little extra bumps on them that add friction for connecting things that shouldn't move easily. The grey and tan ones are smoother and great for rotating stuff

[@puggysmall3136]

That’s the same for the pins where one side is the circle looking one and the other it’s the x shaped one, the beige ones collapse easier than the blue ones

[@Gapi505]

Black = more friction (better for connecting) Grey = Less friction (better for smooth turning)

[@Dan-1031]

The thing I love about your builds is how sturdy they are. In every video you don’t abuse your builds, but it’s not like you are gentle either.

[@nightnight8724]

A classic scissor lift! I took part in VEX robotics in high school and it was a fun challenge, although my team and I never finished one from time constraints for competitions

[@someonetou]

Two other VEX People, nice to finally find others on social media.

[@connorm_3605]

Yooo, didn’t expect to see someone who did VRC/VEX here!

[@alejandrodelacerda5164]

I did VEX too! All i’m gonna say is “water game”

[@thatonedude4543]

Hey my second year in vrc.

[@coolbeans5992]

YOOO VEX PEOPLE

[@C0MMAND3R_ZER0]

Fun fact, the black pins are harder to spin while the grey ones are more loose, making it easier to spin. Everyone already probably knew that, but i still wanted to say something.

[@Catgovroom666]

I didn't know that

[@96Assassine]

Sometimes you also want a mix of both. Depending on the friction you need. Also I feel like the pins with axle hole (3L with 2L pin side) have even more friction, especially when fixed with an axle.

[@The_engineering_potato]

And that boys and girls is what we call a “ scissor lift”.

[@I_TALK_IN_ONLY_EMOJIS]

When he spun one of the technical arms I thought it was about to scream

[@The_Awkward_Goose]

Could you do a tutorial for the mimic 2x2? Also love your content ❤❤

[@delta7341]

You gave me a good idea for my Lego robotics team thanks

[@bendystrawz2832]

That was some smooth Lego handling, the spin especially.

[@Roboshi2007]

funny story, the extending arm is one if the first toys nintendo sold way before it became a video game company

[@nourishedvines3899]

I’m gonna start building That right now

[@mineblocksf]

Watching your videos now . Awesome

[@IAmToad_Man]

I feel like you are the ultimate form of the nerdy kid in school. The king of all nerds.

[@leanpotion]

That’s a 🔥tutorial ngl

[@JobroskiSwaqqman]

This used to be my favorite mechanism until I learned about crank rockers and crank sliders

[@stupidgenius42]

I’m in First Lego League (Lego robotics) and I’m just mentioning that you really shouldn’t use the black pins in this situation. Black pins have large friction ridges, and are used to hold pieces together, grey pieces have no friction and are designed specifically for moving or rotating parts.

[@duncathan_salt]

Notice the black pins are used in the actual build, because the additional friction makes them better suited for staying in place while extended. There are merits to both.

[@JakjacDpro]

Bro I needed this to finish my redstone! Thanks❤

[@hawk2fast1]

I know I’m not that only guy that thinks he’s adorable when he sharing his knowledge of Lego stuff

[@nanoo1340]

I've wanted to see this since forever 😭. I honestly think so far this one is my favorite of the big bricks😂

[@TheItCreatures]

Your vids are great

[@slushiethelynx8779]

You could make one of those grabby arms with that! So fun lol

[@notordinaryextraordinary5534]

This is so cool I wish I could build as good as you can

[@hyperdiamond6086]

I love scissor lifts

[@titank8948]

You should make a scissor snake i 3D print them but by using this technique I bet you could make one out of Lego, heck you could even design your own

[@miscellaneousfauna]

I think it would look better if the middle one was offset so it was more balanced

[@runforitman]

Use the grey ones because their diameter is slightly less than the black ones, meaning they have less friction and the mechanism will move more freely

[@duncathan_salt]

Both have their merits! Notice that the big brick itself uses the black pins, because the additional friction makes them better suited for staying in place when extended.

[@davinanthonyviegas3584]

Thank you for making a tutorial you gave me something fun to do this after noon

[@XanderProductionstrue]

You should put a cloth in it to hide the mechanics that would look trippy

[@herrapingviini2024]

Every tecnic builder: if you ask this you havent listen in school or you are haveing your 1st lego city set

[@hs4619]

Thanks for the nostalgia, my guy, I swear, everyone had these just about everywhere whwnni was a kid, jUst using the extenders in stiff because it made life more fun, heck, we even had stuff like that at my school

[@shadydealz]

Man do you know if Lego ever plans on making anymore of the Teknik Legomen? The way more apposable ones with elbows and knees. Sometimes they came with the more complicated vehicle structures

[@artsy_dragon_creations]

I made one of these scissor jack type builds years ago as the main driving mechanism for my own design of the Assassin’s Creed hidden blade

[@ZoyrahPolivirl]

I’ve made a ton of these before and I love these mechanisms. The only suggestion I have is using 3 technic bricks to build it up and use pins that are 3 studs long. It takes more parts but makes it all the more sturdy. Either way, I like it though!

[@BMRPRODZ]

Showed this too my friend and he thought it was the dopest think ever

[@dytrap918]

This is honestly very cool

[@gogavela1]

That is so cool

[@JGSharknado5911]

Thank you for the Lego device I am going to have so much fun with this technique

[@TheMemerest]

Make the worlds longest extending brick

[@pichibruh]

fun fact: this is called a scissor lift! its very cool and helpful in engineering

[@CauseIDid]

Do a tutorial on the magic one

[@EmilioQuintanaa]

that is so cool

[@TBD_dog]

I used to make stuff like this when I was a kid I just never had enough pieces

[@luciansworld4594]

that’s really fun I want to playlist

[@amondobranic6575]

I was shocked when you pulld it apart

[@RedAceProductions4152]

The Ultra Hand from Nintendo!!

[@YD_.]

I wanna motorize this

[@starwarsjc1551]

Can you make a quick tutorial on how to make the big bricks? I absolutely love them!

[@SpizyPiklezz]

Thank you i will use this once i have enough money to buy the peices

[@The_Real_ArtyVr]

I want to work at lego

[@thehoodedone718]

You should make a jack in de box with that

[@feuerflamme1202]

intristing Gotta make a Design

[@snoozlewoozle]

reminds me of the big power miners mech

[@michellegummeson4424]

I'm going to make that !

[@lukejarvis3409]

Is it just me or does he kinda look like Ben from parks and rec It’s a compliment btw

[@linkplaysyt]

This is how he should propose

[@rll1963]

Can you make it into a extending hand? You can grab things with the hand and you can use the extending blocks.

[@joshmcghie169]

How did you get so good at lego

[@rvlifewithzaneschaefer4024]

Make more and combined them

[@hurricaneheehee2254]

Good to know, now to find all the black pieces for it

[@JeremyStaceyMusic]

You should make the Nintendo grabber arm.!

[@thapersun4350]

The difference between grey and black is grey is more slippery

[@Frickes]

Maybe give your colleagues a hint that nobody wants to have blue pins and we want the black pins back please.

[@garthmeehan-de4tw]

Make a 2x4 big brick

[@Raadicality]

Discord mods when a child passes by

[@riibergikodu1232]

Thx

[@lordandrewlluz3869]

Make a boxing glove gun with that plz.

[@legostudio9466]

hey can yu pls do more on the technic pieces pls

[@derreckmailand5380]

He does look like a young slim version of Nicocado avocado. Let's hope he avoids muck bangs😂

[@GodzillaLordofallMonsters]

Is that how the Fire Mech’s claw in Power Miners was made?

[@James_ChannelIsTheBest]

It's the inside that counts.

[@AiOinc1]

Same as a scissor lift

[@paulio103]

Make the longest extendo arm you can

[@Neontetra276]

thanks 👍

[@jamesreynolds2410]

You sound EXACTLY the same as Colin Robinson/Mr Wurmald

[@Arvl.]

Oh cool i wondering how you make that

[@tersusk-levstory6703]

Could you do a tutorial of the little man by the big brick

[@Alastor_theradiodemon737]

I used to make those

[@NekkNakLeRat]

Could you theoretically flip the middle one to the other side so it’s more stable?

[@willreasoner4472]

Oh yeah.. well, one time I made a tower… it was like 2 feet tall

[@amirhosseinmaghsoodi388]

Now just make an extendable boxing glove.

[@K4P53R]

Gray is for the real g's

[@williamschroder3413]

Nice

[@Bengerq]

"Black ones or grey ones" Chooses grey My brain: poor black fella🗿

[@lsaac_]

Im just going to order a bunch of lego parts in bulk so i can make cool stuff

[@Echolusion]

After I watched this I grabbed mine right away and they look so tiny all of the sudden!

[@razannaiim9418]

Thank youuuuuuuuuuu

[@External-rx6z]

Make a Rubiks cube❤

[@noahblack914]

So why didn't you do the criss-cross pattern on the super long one? Wouldn't that help it actually collapse properly?

[@hostiledodo1150]

Are master builders allowed to submit on Lego Ideas? I'd love to buy a set with some of these big bricks

[@mylestrumbore5382]

Mimic block please!

[@herobrian8785]

Can you make a Lego scissor lift

[@lincolnbeckett8791]

He's such an enjoyable person to watch make literally anything.

[@user-zy4im8lx7r]

How do you make the ice come out of the mini fridge

[@Crxzy21ttt]

Make a Lego techdeck

[@felixsneaky4332]

i made that as a kid

[@ziggy1314]

Good guy

[@cahydra]

How does someone not know this from playing with lego technic?

[@eirgel38]

I'm a little concerned that a tutorial was needed

[@wisper3064]

I don't like that they're off center

[@davidcasteel7948]

Nicoe avocado when he was young
