Archer Automaton

- There is detail that is easy to miss, notably the way the bow is realistically canted (angled). The idea that a bow is held vertically is a relatively modern concept that is only applicable if you have sights fitted. As the model is rotated near the end of the clip you can also see the curve on his bow arm.
There is a more detailed explanation of how it works and how it was made in this video:-

This is so awesome! 😃
PS: Who is here from JK Brickworks? 🙋♂️
I am
Lol me!
me
Yep, brickworks got me here...
Me :D
Not only great engineering, but nice proportions on the model. Keep up the smooth and beautiful work!
a wonderful little masterpiece, well done sir I am in awe
Wow, Derek. The movement on him is so perfect. I can see you still have a ways to go finishing him, but the mechanics and motion are right on. Bravo.
That is the coolest automaton I have ever seen. Love it.
Such a range of movement from a fairly basic mechanism, pure engineering genius 👌
I've seen many awesome automatons, but that one is simply impressive, congratulations
Mr. Hutchinson, this is so clever, you must be part elven toymaker/clockmaker. it gives me joy to see some of this old school tech is still alive. great job! i nearly forgot, next week i'll finally have an indoor bowyer workshop, i still have those warbows, i also aquired yet another yew stave, so when finished will have the elm, and two yew bows. i really need a tillering setup similar to yours, so holding till i have a wall to mount it.
This is so wonderful, wonderfully designed with such simplicity and perfection.
Excellent! Not only the design and the execution as a model, it also works to demonstrate the force vectors and the correct stance for real archers. Even the loosing of the arrow happens as it should. Very nice. I hope you don't mind if I would build myself a copy of this - of course I would mention that is your idea.
No prob at all! Go for it, but expect an awful lot of fiddling and fettling to get the action to work! Just about every part gets built twice and the control rods have a series of holes where the connect to the cam, each hole giving about 0.5mm extra rod length for adjustment. One cam ended up with a couple of hole positions too. There's a lot of permutations and combinations before you get into the relative positions of the cams!
Sounds like a lot of fun. ;-)
Its technically a weapon and a work of art. Now i want to see a really big one
Omd this is as gorgeous and genius as it is simple, I am deeply impressed!
A true work of art! Bravo!
This one automaton should get you into the celestial kingdom, worlds without end.
I've always imagined and automaton to have complex mechanism. This one looks so simple I thought there were going to be a bulk of gears behind that board. This would make such a fun an interesting toy for children to learn about gears and stuff. Great job
Thanks :-) ... as an archer I could really think about the motion and try to keep it simple. As an engineer simplicity has always been my watchword.
@@delcat8168 it shoots well too. What do you use for the bow string? Does it shoot accurately all the time?
Outstanding! Your an inspiration. Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Parabéns, uma obra de arte.
Amazing work! Thank you for the inspiration
That's absolutely amazing!
Your are great grand pa...
great work Del
Fantastic work.
¡Excelente! ¡Muy bueno! ¡Felicitaciones! (saludos desde Buenos Aires, Argentina)
It is fantastic work ! Very good idea ! I will try to make archer how this ! 👏good work!
Incredible engineering.
Amazing work
You áre an genius!congratulations Mister ,
very unique!
nice job
well this is just ridiculous, just amazing
amazing job!
WHAT!? INCREDIBLE
Bellissimo! Magnifico! 👍👏👏👏👏💕
Very clever, thanks for sharing.
amazing mechanism
wow!!! my mouth dropped! this is epic!
Beautiful
HA!! This is wonderful stuff!!
Just Brilliant!
Wonderful!
Amazing.
This is exquisite
Amazing!
Good effort!
Awesome!
Wow, he really shoots an arrow!
very underrated
you are GOŚĆ !!!!!!!!!!!!
Derek that is brilliant, would you consider doing some plans so I could have a go making one, I shoot trad longbow as a hobby..... Excellent work mate👍👏👌
Wonderful
also such an aestethically achievement !!!
amazing
Brilliant.
very cool!
Amazing
wow!
brilliant
Love it😍😍😍
You clever bugger, Del.
Good
Good job...keep goin on 😉
Shelly says can you make him one!
It's tooo good
Bravo..
Neat!
Wow!
genius!
Look at my automatons!))
very cool thanx *o*
Wow😮
You very clever man
Super
😮
could you make a full video of making an archer automata? please
No, sorry... there is a video of the prototype
This is amazing!
Where are the rest of Derek’s videos?

Witchcraft!!
No se trata de que explique el sistema sino de la capacidad mental para crear eso... escomo una estrella en el universo..... y. Para que encuentres otra persona igual....😐🤔
Genius!
Amazing work
