Can Lego BREAK a Steel Axle?
Vložit

- Let's see how Lego-compatible stainless steel axle deforms or breaks when high torque is applied.
The test bench is made using only plastic Lego parts. Enjoy!
The axle was bought from Brick Machine Shop on BrickLink (obsolete)
store.bricklink.com/Eezo?item...
it was later sold by cncgear on EBay (obsolete)

You can't be sure without a TEM
"in my medical opinion, THE AXEL BROKE!"
"Doc, what happened?"
"In my professional opinion, THE AXEL WAS BROKEN!"
(yes, this is stupid)

The fact that legos can withstand that much just shows you how incredible the quality is
I knew how quality they were when my fat ass stepped on one and it rkoed me
and then brown plates just collapse
Brown parts: are you sure about that?
Yeah, if this machine was creating 15 Nm of torque, that means the lego joints were withstanding something like 7,500 N, or 1,700 lbs.
Except brown bricks😂😂😂😂
2:54 i love how the machine just dances with the music
True :)
I have a crippling suspicion this will be recommended again in a couple of years.
1 year earlier this was in my recommended. Now again.
not years, but i am here
Ye
If youtube exists in a few years. Who knows. Google could eventually die.
Probably
Zooms in at an atomic level
"broken"
Haha
Had to make sure
Looked at this comment right as the zoom happened lmao
Man...😔
didnt saw it was broken before, the zoom helped a lot there
Ah, now that's the machine that makes drills. I always wondered how they shaped them.
Lol
You mean "drill bits" NOT drills?
@@luke14946 sry that we don't have information on drills 😐
@@TheOneAndOnIy is shop class no longer a required credit? this used to be common knowledge
@@XxXMrSisterFisterXxX nope, never even heard of shop class
that zoom in on the axle with the "broken" is prefect
Oh yeah, calculating torque, I remember doing that when I was a kid playing with lego
Michel Angelo who doesn’t remember that
Idk Something original me i forgot its been a long time, now i shred houses with a woodchipper
It was my favorite part of playing with Legos
😆
I can remember when I just hit 5, i said "I'd like to calculate some torques please!"
When you have a mechanical engineering degree but miss being a kid

Why are you all whooshing Danny, that is hardly a whoosh.
To be honest, I was surprised by the end result! It’s real impressive that LEGO isn’t only versatile in dioramas.
that zoom in on the axle with the "broken" is prefect. LEGO has to be the coolest “toy” ever made. Just incredible!.
“We couldn’t have built the pyramids, it was aliens”
*Guy bends steel with legos*
“Maybe we could have built the pyramids”
Lego pyramid?
Hahahaha
Aboriginals built the pyramids not aliens
I thought the homo sapiens built the pyramids!
No he is an alien I met him at Area 51 when I was visiting the bois that’s why we could walk on legos
*zooms in 100x closer*
--> "Broken"
well who would have guessed
lol
And i thought i was the only one when i laughed lmao
nani?!?!!?
just that little bit on the top is broken. the rest is "stylized."
*ah yes the floor here is made of floor*
Can we just spare a moment to be amazed of how strong steel is being twisted like that, so many times without breaking.
I remember when this first came out, a lot of poorly informed commenters were saying this was fake, and it wasn't really steel, that's why in the sequel he went to great lengths to prove the materials in question were what he said they were.
But just from watching the video, I'm baffled how anyone can mistake the plasticity of steel as anything else. Aluminum can be stiff, but it is so brittle. It can't be twisted many times and remain strong.
Oh well. People are so used to the internet being fake, I guess, that the honest man gets persecuted.
I’ve already seen this 3 years ago, but it feels so nice to see it again :)
Can lego break my neighbors annoying kids?
*zooms in on kid*
“Slight permanent deformation”
Lmao
Lol
The very biggest ghey
Underrated
Your comment is pretty funny but im more concerned on your profile pic
HUMSKI ok
"Serious permanent deformation"
Looks like a drill bit to me.
if it was he doesn´t need buy one
@@brucelucas8570 what does that even mean
@@dylbowaggins4160 it means that he doesn´t need to spend money to buy drill bits
yeah so much i thought thats where he started of from the thumbnail "unturning a drill bit"
How do you think they make them?
It's pretty cool they make drill bits using small Lego machines, learn something new every day!
THE BARS. THEY BEND AND TWIST WITH MY BERSERKER STRENGTH.
I'm very impressed with the tiny blocks with the plus in them who kept the rods in place, damn.
4:40 i like the part were he zooms in like 10x just to prove it’s in fact broken.
I wanted to like but the upvote counts are is in a good number
I wasn't quite sure at first, but the helpful arrow pointing it out proved it to me.
Soviet boi that’s okay😄
Yeah he even labeled it ""
I laughed out loud at tht part😂
When I look in the mirror: "serious permanent deformation"

Thank you for zooming in at the end. I wasn't sure whenever it was broken or not
thank you for matching the music to the set picking up in the opposite direction

Bending a car in half with 1 million lego gears and four 500 hp engines
The thing is that it might be possible to bend a car in half using just a few of Lgo compatible electromotors and a lot of gearing.
It would be very cruel and torturing too as the process of bending might take hours or days.
True
@@mortisCZ yea thats the scary this is the it is possible
@@mortisCZ *goes out to buy legos and four 500 hp engines Intensified*
I mean if u distribute the force applied to each lego and add up then you could probably beat alot of stuff with them, its like paper, 1 layer is easy to cut, add 30 layers and its comparable to armour.
The sarcastic zoom in to that incredibly close distance THEN the arrow to indicate where it was broken. So sassy I love it.
4:40 lol
Yeah like "it's broken riiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
iiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiight here"
@Quest Chavez Ayooo!!!
How do you do a sarcastic zoom
@@keisufederationmapping2748 prolonging the zoom further and longer than necessary.
i love the zoom and the little arrow pointing saying it's broken

He even put a little annotation on. Definitely broken.
i hadn't noticed until he zoomed in
@@daeron_milk I know, right!
I thought we were gonna see the atoms or something

Thanks for putting an arrow pointing at it with "broken," I don't think I would've been able to tell without it
"Nobody knows what a torque is, but there's six hundred of them swimming around in that engine."
Spoken like a true physicist
It's like a rotational force. If you apply 1N of force to a 1m lever, you get 1 N m of torque. τ = F x.

@@GamerBravo7 same
The 2 lego holding the steel in place is the real champ
Those two were able to support so much torque *because* of the support of the rest of the legos.
@@Darenz-cg9zg Tell that to the steel axle.
Don’t forget the 4 big gears turning it.
I rember watching this video a while ago. I didn't knew it has been less than 3 years. I could have sworn to seeing this back in high-school or college.
One time I built a lego hut looking thing. 👌 this was very cool. Nice work.

I just realized that LEGO is pretty OP
It can even lift u...
Welcome after!
HKH From PH veeeeru slowly buy yeah it can
They'll probably nerf it in the next DLC
What does OP mean
Watching your videos is kinda like a meditation or like you are about to sleep and starting to have a good dream :)
It’s cool how you can see the reaction to the motors torque through the Lego frame
Me that stepped on a lego and felt inexplicable pain:
"It all makes sense now"
Instead of people using bricks for buildings use some legos ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) it will help
*IT "ALL"* Makes sense now
Im it takes 953 pounds to break one thats 2 giant couch potatoes

Thanks for the arrow and the note at the end showing that the axle was in fact broken 😊
After taking a few years of Mechanical Engineering courses I thought to myself, "I wonder if he's gonna do a fatigue test" My power of clairvoyance surprises me again.
Zooming up so close to the steel piece and having the “broken” arrow pop up gave me a good chuckle.
You know, just in case you couldn't tell.

1:35, the part that was in the thumbnail, looked so twisted that i thought that it was a drill bit
@FSJF Games its steel. The drill bits are made out of metal.
I didn’t watch the intro is I thought it was a drill
And thats how drills are made!

@Technology Boy there is different kind of steel, and the most common type of drill bit is steel
Enough legos, and motors, and gears, he can make a machine that would rival a crane.
Turns out cranes were made from Lego all along
@@Scott-tk8gi Though it would be really interesting to see, if he did make something that could pick up a car.
Well he already lifted 88kg with LEGOs so...
@@HasekuraIsuna I didn't know he did that video. I'm subbed to his channel, but wasn't notified. -- I only found this video because it popped up in my recommendeds.
Lego crane xD
I'm honestly more impressed that the axle was able to take that many 360 degree twists without breaking than that an electromotor attached to what is basically a plastic vise was able to eventually break it.
That's amazing the plastic didn't give first. This gives me more hope for my plastic gear driven Smart Curtains!
Me: Builds a hundred piece set and feels proud

Well, if you havent gone to school yet calculating torque might sound complicated
Imagine not knowing how to calculate torque and basic formulas in real life but learning bullshit like harmonic motion in detail. Wow I hate my education system

@@nightzzmixx pretty much at the point where you need tools to work with them. i think thats the main feature of lego: it connects with itself without nails or screws or glue.
@@nightzzmixx They will be Leg* metal gears as long as they have Lego-compatible connectors.
