TESTING THE MIRANDA MINI BLOCKS WITH AN EXCAVATOR
Added 2023-01-20 09:30:34 +0000 UTCHi everyone!
Trying to build the Go Kart to race Matt Denton found a lot of flaws in the design on the blocks but I found even more things that could be improved. I had built the "mini" version of the Go Kart but I needed something with more "engineering punch" to do the final test to the design so I went for an excavator.
This has proven to be a good project to test the design because I found lots of more improvements along the way and I'm loving these blocks even more the more I use them.
As I'm getting lots of questions about the new even bigger printer, that one is going through a revision as it has lots of "it's the first version" things that can be improved so I'll most probably make a new video with a rebuild from start to finish before I can release any plans.
I'm also testing the viability of a "desktop" metal 3D printer using a laser diode and the first tests are quite promising, I'll keep you posted.
As always let me know your thoughts in the comments!
Cheers!!

Haha, that's the sign of a good designer, play with it until you discover its weakness :-D. Nice work
