Printed these at 70% for my 10yr old son. Everything came out great and still worked just fine!!!

Hi! I joined the "We Are Makers" tier but I am having trouble finding the claws. I don't see them in the September drive folder?

TheStormLord

Fingers crossed you figure a way to make it work and look right. Looking forward to it though if you do. Would be great to go with the biomask

Marko Makaj

Hey sorry for the slow reply, the link is sent to your rmail you joined with. Its the first messge you get from oatreon :) did you find it ? :)

Marko Makaj

Just a regular knot , nothing fancy really :)

Marko Makaj

Maybe :) haha

Marko Makaj

5mm dismeter x 2mm thickness,forgot to add it to the folder :D

Harry Barham

Hey, what magnets do you recommend for the gauntlet? Thanks! 😁

Hector K. Paredes

Super easy to print! Fantastic!

TheStormLord

I’m excited to give it a go. Have you considered doing a predator wristblade with this sort of mechanism?

Willis Meekins

What is the best way to tie the elastic loops? I'm having trouble keeping everything tight.

Marko Makaj

its best to check my 3mf file, it has rotation, support, all info included, but the way it is designed it does not need any supports :)

Elias

Okay. I’ll give that a go. Thank you.

Erik Johnson

Print it flat on the plate. The bridging is really small, so i didn't get any drooping inside.

Elias

These are my favorite models yet. So when it came to printing them out. What was your orientation for the claw sheaths? did you use supports? I tried two attempts printed vertically because I didn’t want to deal with support internally in the blade tubes which I think would have happed if I printed horizontally. 1st vertical attempts failed. Thanks, would love to know all your printing best practices.

Alex Facemyer

Amazing. I cannot wait to get this done for Halloween this year. 😀😀😀

Angel

Ok cool thank you. Looks fantastic either way , so good job

Marko Makaj

Downscale yes, just not sure how much, didnt test it. Paint- it should also work but i didnt test that

Angel

2 tolerance questions. Can it be scaled down and function the same ? Can the claws be painted and still function?

RossReplica

Well done mark all that needs is a way to retract two leaving one lol

Dustin Wood

Corey Mccall

Firing up the printer today!

daz

watched the video but seen nothing but ye i see now that ive opened files lol

Marko Makaj

Trust me ive went thru all sorts of iterations to be able to simplify it down to where it is now :) your suggestion would make it smoother, sure, but also more dificult to build, break apart,assamble, it would be it thicker, peoole would need extra hardware parts, and we need to incorporate acces to hardware into the design to make it usable in the long run, so overall more bulky. In my opinion it just isnt worth it to overcomplicate it to get a smidge of diference. Ive noticed with all the "electeonics build", they are so complicated people immidiatelly give up when they see only a part of complication, i wanted this to be aa easy as it gets and it is the easiest to work with mechanism in the world. Now that ive made this im aure people will work on it in all sorts of way :)

Vince King

Let's fucking go!

Drue

Wow man that’s great!! Only suggestion is, assuming there’s a track of sorts that the blades slide on.. would seem that if there was a ball bearing race attached to a T track, might give a more smooth and firm extract/retraction.. as well I’d wonder how difficult to making them motorized with a linear servo… that can control speed of/ and extraction length (1/4, 1/2. 3/4, full ) extraction that’d be sweet to But overall, Wow You!!!! U always make great stuff
