- I built a LEGO Robot arm like the one Tony Stark has, and it's probably 20% dumb-er than that one.
and I call him... Hand-E

Hey Riley, what app do you use to edit your videos, I’m starting my channel soon and I can’t find any good video editing apps
Amazing vid by the way
Can you try to build a lego robot that sort the pieces please
I like your video' s concrediulations i hope that part 2 is coming soooooon
I like lego and robots this is perfect 😃😃😃😃😃✋✋✋🙂🙂🙂
@@maximetheron8544 jeah thats cool 😎
I think if the base is heavier i think it can maybe hold another camera for panning shots haha!! That aside, the editing and story is phenomenal! Even for someone like me who don't really build technic it was an enjoyable ride from start to finish
First like
Thanks man!! Appreciate you!
9th like 👍
Hey I built a robot arm with a GoPro rig :)
I love your videos
I love your videos, well done
One day this man is gonna walk into his studio and not going to need to do anything because he’s built a fully automated lego assembly line.
😂
he'll become tony stark
@Adam lony stego
Lol
Then what's the point
I cried, that's how good this was!
Hi
Again
Im your big fan
Hi again
I saw u on td channel
Great project! This reminds me of a school project I once had where a friend an i programmed a robot to build a lego house ;D
I think we had around 5k code lines for just a 10x10 cm house with 4 walls, a door, and a window with a prebuild roof that the robot had to place on top.
So seeing you struggle with just the first brick placement really brings memories back. Looking forward to seeing the updated version ;D
Inverse kinematics would've made that a lot easier.
Nicely done man!
Thank you man!
hi im your big fan
Fun fact : Tiago hates lego technic because he had to dismantle a big technic car all by himself
I agree dude
daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaang
Even though he's controlling it, why do I feel like the robot has a separate personality?
Same
*It does*
I feel the same
Can’t wait for a part two! Great work. Try worm gears, they give great torque, slow the motors down, and it’s basically impossible to make them slip
Also for the turntable you could add a ring on top of the wheels like a mechanical sandwich to make it less wobbly
I'd love to see another round at this. Pretty awesome build and entertaining video. 👍 Maybe have the base wheels with rubber on them (I think someone else mentioned) and connect them underneath the large circle so it adds stability when the weight of the arm is extended or if it lifts something heavy. Also cool wrap built around it but this adds to weight and slows motion down too. Maybe strip it down get it working as best you can and add minimal panels to make it less heavy for the motors. I have seen some claw designs where there's a corkscrew in the middle that could help push out what is being held as the claw opens so maybe that can help it build too. Just brain-storming for you. Blown away by what you presented though. Keep at it and I'm sure you'll get it! 😊
Wow, thats amazing! I think now, you should make a brick storage unit, and have a brick selector screen. you pick a brick, and the machine gives you the box! (can be integrated onto your stash in the back)
I’m surprised this wasn’t done with any LEGO Mindstorms platform! But then, I have an overwhelming bias toward potentially fully autonomous robots, which probably wouldn’t be useful in this case.
I’d love to see a part 2, if one hasn’t been posted already!
Yes, this definitely need a part 2
🔥🦾 Amazing technical feat! all you need is an appropriate controller, or even better make an ia that can follow instructions!
may i suggest, for the rotation of the base, to check out the bag n° 6 of lego 42082 set? (a red crane). Maybe it could inspire you to come up to a more solid design to prevent the crazy wobbling
need to use the bananna gears to make the base rotate solidly. Also, you've got that curved wall with the drawers, have it bring the drawers out. you could use a mindstorms colour sensor at the end of the arm, and little stickers on all the drawers so its knows which one is which.
This is really good! Part 2 please.
This would talk me like 10 weeks but you are so smart and builds this big arm in only 15 hours ,impressive
You need weights (the battery box for example) which you place on the opposite side of the moving arm to compensate the wheight.
Try using wheels for the bottom of the robot.
Also part two
This guy is like Tony Stark with Legos!
I'd love to see a working Lego claw machine game, maybe the prizes could be polybags and Minifigure packs
That would be cool!
Looks super cool, you should make a robot that can bring you whatever you tell/program it to say!
Thats useless
I like how the stream starts at 4am for me here down under.
Please, we need a part 2 !! This was amazing!
That click clicking editing is dope,
Btw I think some multiple mini hydraulic hammer pushing down the bricks might be cool 😉
Honestly the amount of effort you put in your creations and videos is absolutely brilliant, [which is why I am subscribed lol]
Agreed
how is this guy not at 1m subs yet? he has the coolest builds on CZcams
I know like how does he not have one million
I believe one of the tutorials I watched for power functions said that there is a way to set an absolute position for the motors. So you could give yourself a button that positions the arm directly over the same point do that it's easier to stack the bricks
Looks awesome, you've got great programming skills!
your awesome builds are really inspiring, GREAT JOB!
"Building lego to build lego"
these have been some of the most enjoyable lego building video i have seen, thanks for the good stuff!
Definitely needs a part two.
This looks SICK! You are so underrated.
this truly is such a great feat of lego tech, amazing work.
cant wait till you make a version that's foldable or create a 100 square foot factory with it
(and then upload it in a week like SERIOUSLY YOU PUMP OUT GREAT CONTENT REAL FAST IT'S UNBELIEVABLE)
Not sure if you thought of it. Or would consider it, but Rollercoasters have wheels and supports on more than one side of track. Perhaps turn the base swivel into a cage bearing. Make a frame and attach another ring track on top. Might make it stronger and smoother than just making it wider. Very top heavy as well. Add weight to bottom. Alot, if you want it to press bricks together
3 years from now:
*”I built a full scale LEGO factory out of LEGO!”*
Although the functionality of the robot isn't much, the arm is quite impressive nonetheless.
this man spends so much time for our entertainment, thank you
❤️❤️🙏
@@Brick_Science i agree because it's been a good year since that came out and in that year i've whatched it a good 15 times
my suggestion would be to add some sort of pusher as well as the pincers, so that you can grab the piece and push it down instead of having the pincers slide off
Pretty please do part 2! I'm really hoping to see it.
I think it'd be cool to see how you improve this thing. I'm definitely looking forward to a part 2.
I was wondering what took u so long to make a video but I'm not even mad it was worth the wait I wish I could do this
Why don’t you build a mountain railway (I have a plan for the locomotive!)
Make it look like the engine Snowdon from the snowdon mountain railway, using an open gear smaller than the wheels, put a gear rack in between the rails that will mesh with the gear. Curves and points will have to be level, to keep the engine from slipping
Part 2 we need part 2
You're just an awesome person! The moc is epic that I really want to make one for myself!! Also the video is very entertaining and you did a really great job!! To be honest I just can't refuse to click the like button!! #sss
Thank you 🙏
it is crazy that he came up with this by him self all i got to say is that you are truly talented
Did that’s an amazing build, I can’t imagine me buildings this in a million years
Is it me or is this man progressively getting closer to being iron man
My hands are shaky too I need this
So it can hold an Iron man mask, but what I really want to know is if it can use a fire extinguisher.
+1 to keep going.
WHY DID SOMEONE DISLIKE THIS!!!!!!!!!!
Bc your a like beggar
You're the reason why I want to be an engineer when I grow up. This is amazing!
You And your buildings And mechanisms are amazing 🤩🤩🤩
Awesome video! Now, it needs to be asked: can it hold a fire extinguisher like 'U' from Iron Man? ; )
maybe you could build 12 claws projecting radially (like a 12 jawed chuck) from 1 motor for holding parts of big builds while you work on others or mount pieces together
It would be really cool if you could program it to build little Lego houses
You've inspired my son to try this out! Would love it if you made a part 2!
Pt2 plz loved the vid
I really love your videos, thank you, and my 7-year-old daughter and I enjoy watching them. Do you have any tips or videos on simple basic interfaces to run lego motors?
I was a Lego technic enthusiast as a child, and now I've started buying modern Lego technic for my daughter (and yes, for me too :) but the modern sets only seem to let us run the motors from an annoying app, which a) is annoying, requiring us to use my phone and touch screen as our only option to control them, and b) it even point-blank REFUSES to run the motors at all if it thinks they are connected differently to the battery box from how the set that we bought stipulated. This is totally ridiculous, because the whole point of Lego has always been (as you illustrate so well in this video here) to use the parts to invent your own stuff. My daughter and I recently built a (very simple) Lego ski lift for Lego people, super-primitive, just winding in a piece of string with a motor, basically, and I literally had to physically build it differently, with an axel fitted into a free-wheeling piece of another motor, in order to satisfy the Lego app and "trick" it into letting me just run the one motor that I wanted.
I tried to look up suggestions of how to just use the motors ourselves with full control, but it seemed complicated and I don't understand what to do next.
you know how many extra hours of sleep i'd get just TRYING to plan that?
The fact that you could even make the motors work is godlike, i would literally give up within a minute.
oh ny gawd, seeing someone with such limited resorces build a complete robot arm is amazing!
P.S. i have te exact lego set and finished building it few month ago it took me half an year to buld it since im only 12
I never new a robot hand could be built with nothing but Lego, I love your vids your a legend
You’d said you weren’t good at mechanical engineering in the beginning, but you are actually very good!
this is one of your coolest builds!!!
I really love your stuff it brings me back to when I used to spend hours playing with LEGO’s and I really enjoy watching you SUPER SPECIAL SHOUT-OUT #SSS
If you wanted to use it to construct stuff you could put it on rails and make it work like a claw machine/3d printer
Nice job. For stability get another turntable and build it like the 42082 Rough Terrain Crane
I think you should add some weight to the back as a counter weight so it’s more bottom heavy
Transforming a Technic lego set into a robot arm... This is a brilliant idea
“I’m terrible at mechanical engineering”
*Builds the sickest robot arm I’ve ever seen*
SO AWESOME DUDE!! I didn't even know those mechanical LEGO pieces even existed until I say your videos
It would be really cool if there was a way to compact it down to fit on like on of the lego city trucks or trains that would be cool
AMAZING!!!!.................................but I have an idea that you can try that , you can make the arm a bit compact and put it on a Lego Mindstorms remote controlled car..........that will help pick up and move garbage and other objects.....................................or you can also add some spinning brushes to make it a full garbage collector and floor cleaner.......................................................one last idea is that you can make the hand of the arm hold a camera so you can rotate the arm wherever you want the camera to be.
this dude spent like 20 days on this he's like 1 of the most patient person in the world
Amazing Work love your vids keep it up.
Bro Doesn't Every Lego Fan Wanna Build Something like this
Hey brick science love your vids i have a question for you can you make a video about how to use technic bricks? I have a lot of technic bricks and i have no idea how to use them so a vid about how to use them would be very good.
4:09 the fact He has deadshot eyes to make 1 vid for us
Damn good robot 🤖, btw if you add wheels at the bottom it would be more efficient
guess the issue is the weight in the arm, for the base to avoid beign "tilty" use bearings between 2 circular parts (those made of 4-24121) not on 4 points but at least 1 each 45 degrees (8)
than as long as a gearbox could be used to multiply outputs insted of changing speed with really few efforts
just use a 3 output turntable plus a sequential gearbox as a function multiplier (up to 9 functions) all the weight will be in the base.
so cool! i like to build lego robots all the time but i havent made one as careful as this one!
Aaronnxxjorkey
Damn he really passed the "im not a robot test"
You can do two ring gears so it is more stable
To make the main arm not as wobbly is to make rotational part wider. It should fix it.
I’m glad you’re feeling better :)
the amount of asmr he puts in these videos in awsome
Me: has bucket wheel excavator and the red crane, thinking I have the biggest technic sets.
Also me: damn I need to buy that now
Your channel is so underrated, Keep up the good work :)
I love your videos, Keep the hard work up!! What app do you use?
Yes please make a part 2!
Dude this is so awesome keep up the great job man!
I've never seen anyone build a remote controlled minifigure, that can walk around and everything! You'd probably be the first person to do so!
A part two would be awesome 😎
It is really good. Part 2 please
Cool tecnics!
7:04 it's nodding and waving :D
How about a robot that can walk like a human on two legs. I tried to make one from lego mindstorms, I spent a few months on it and failed, but I'm still trying. It would be really cool to see that, plus I could steal your method.
amazing I wonder if the future humans will use lego to make full size humanoid robots
