this gave me a chubby
awesome. way of the future.
Thank you
@3goldy p.s: You don’t stop at 10 min, you record until you run out of room then edit 10min episodes.
I want to print my own cloting line!
amazing
This. Is. Cool.
What a genius item. A machine that makes nearly everything and that can nearly replicate itself out of some crappy milk bottles that would probably just get thrown into the bin. Hay how good would it be if they could develop this technology so that people in the third world could make there own Internet enabled computer.
How totally refreshing to watch, a very creative video like this instead of beer guns and ammo, ( the american Hollywood way) fantastic stuff guys, NICE 1. the subject totally captivates me…
Thom in Scotland.
@jammapcb You may think the video sucks, I think its great! (although of course there is always lots of room for improvement – but its had many more likes than dislikes. My guess is that your viewpoint is very marginal, although valid nontheless). If you want something done properly, do it yourself, I guess!
(saying that, if you post me a pro camera I’ll happily try to arrange myself another trip down to Bath!)
@jdaviescoates thats geek sneary lol..do you mean my test vids for youtubes crappy codec conversions.. yeah veoh does a better job for HD..54k views though is not important when the video sucks…you should of showed what the machine can do .not just talk about it ffs lol. timelapse with a pro camera and prime lens would be a good start. so far nearly every video sucks for showing off this unit..blurry, seasick, motion glitches, piss poor audio, generally 1 million impressions but sucky videos!
@jammapcb at the time youtube wouldn’t let videos last longer than 10 mins, and I personally don’t like vids that have to be watched in parts. Each to their own I guess – no need to criticise my “directional skills” though – this is one of my earliest video and has over 54000 more view than any video you’ve uploaded!
What a superb man…. why not add a part 2 instead of cutting him off at the end… i dunno some camera operators have no directional skills lol…. next time make it 2 parts and a lot more of Adrian’s work… truly inspiring!
@visionontv the whole video is perfectly audible, no? Are you listening on headphones? Guess that would make the different volumes a bit more noticeable. Hmz, perhaps I should try to normalise the sound or something. Then again that goes against the whole simplicity of shot, upload, done
I was about to ask you to recommend a good value one, but my flip video camera doesn’t appear to even have ability to plug an external mic in. Personally I don’t think the sound is too bad.
You must use an external mic as they are interesting videos spoiled by bad sound
Any substrate that can handle > 100°C? Food grade?
The real world applications in the long term are limitless! Please do a presentation at TED.
what about attaching a mill head in place of the extruder?>
Do you have to program your own tool path?
This is fantastic, good old British engineering!
So bottomline is that you need eletricity, polylactic acid and a 3D printing machine (RepRap) to provide useful hometools/appliances and donate them around the world. I’m no chemist but where or how do we make polylactic acid? What are we waiting for, let’s build the world with these awesome machines… for free!
How can we help this guy?
@Gradeoch It’s a choice we all have to make everyday: Money or the right thing
