Cool project! Did you try reaming the critical holes? I've had good luck making air / water tight SLA parts by printing slightly under size then reaming / boring the holes to size. Same for very flat / square surfaces (machine to spec in the mill).
Thanks! I did have to ream all the bores, but I didn’t have an actual reamer that size so I made a janky one that sort of worked. The resin I used was also really brittle and didn’t like to be cut without chipping. I think just machining the entire thing would have ended up taking just as much time as I spent trying to fix my 3d print lol.
Very surreal seeing this comment on this on a video/in a comment section with so few others. Also interesting to see the similarities between these channels and their content, but the wildly different popularity.
I just found your channel today... What an incredible inventor, developer and doer you are. I love it love it love it! Thank you for the ride and inspiration! You rock!
3:24 Technically it's not a parabola: it's a partial ellipse since the earth is round (not flat) and gravity changes with height. However this won't matter unless you're shooting at things miles away, like in artillery or ICBMs. Cool project, by the way!
Had a similar issue while creating a barcode reader, at the end I had to pre-process the frames, correcting the lens distortion, before feeding them to the motion tracking algorithm
I was thinking that might be the issue as well, I just didn’t get to look into it very much. I’m probably going to switch to different camera system for V2 and I’ll need to get all the lens distortion figured out for it.
@@ExcessiveOverkill python openCV has a great library for it, just need to take some images of a checkerboard pattern, and then values get calculated for autocorrection.

same but today. im loving this project after stumbling into his lightsaber project

Very nice! Looking forward to seeing future iterations!
really awesome work
1:50 Gaskets!
lol
CANT WAIT FOR V2 IT LOOKS AWESOME
Why didn’t you reuse parts from a normal airsoft? Especially for the reloading
4:17 look into the fisheye effect
Just found your channel love you content
3:44 v1 ultrakill!
5:24 lmao he is so helpful
Very cool project! Is v2 still in the works?
Excellent!
Is that a rail gun you're putting on V2?
Coil gun, but I haven’t done any testing so we’ll see how well it’ll actually work.
About the issue while aiming at the edges: is maybe related to lens distortion from the camera using wide angle fixed lens?
Had a similar issue while creating a barcode reader, at the end I had to pre-process the frames, correcting the lens distortion, before feeding them to the motion tracking algorithm
This is also what I was thinking.

You can do a camera calibration to compensate for the lens distortion!
Shoulda made the laptop gun from Perfect Dark
What cleaning tool are you using for the resin prints?
Ghost in the Shell autogun
What type of electronics controllers were used here?
Main program is python running on a laptop, the stepper motors and valves are run by an arduino nano.
@@ExcessiveOverkill Cool! Thank You.
Can you share the tracking codes
coilgun aimbot?
