[jimchuff]

Incredible!

[AkabusTraffic]

はっきり言って、逆に遅刻するｗ

これこそ「才能の無駄遣い」ですねｗｗｗ

まぁ、高評価ですがｗｗ

[CipherIvory]

I want to buy this as a reason of my being late to office =P

[NiagaraFallsHotel]

@NiagaraFallsHotel - It could also do the Double Windsor

[RonHofer]

As a putterer who tries to make things move they way I want them to, I applaud your achievement.

[sculptsystem]

Great! quite an accomplishment

[7absinth]

man liekas tagad var vīri no savām sievām mierīgi šķirties jo būs nopirkta šitā vērtīgā manta :D

[Joniggs]

I see people saying, "What's the point?" The point is proving that you can make a machine, device, etc. that can do something that requires dexterity and precision.

[Jazzlovr0468]

Why go through all of this for a necktie when you can just tie and wear a bowtie?

[EveryoneCry]

And people Laughed at Pee-wee's Breakfast Machine

[ronyahoo07]

i want to do it for a project in my school, if someone have theschematics please send my a link or mail to me

[bloodmonk61]

i felt the sudden urge to kill myself... just me?

[parapobabam]

@bloodmonk61 please satisfy that urge. for us.

[Communitypk]

VIRGIN!

[ironman5454]

Notice the smack and squabble at 1:58.... division of labor issues !

"Machine holds man hostage - demands higher wages, better working conditions...news at 11"

[dennnpeter]

Até a maquina terminar o nó, já chegou o final de semana. O cara pode ir à igreja, pelo menos.

[mvgg]

Letme guess:

American invention??

[fbaugusto]

Seria mais fácil aprender a fazer o nó...

[Arkananjo]

o kra levou anos para desenvolver o projeto e mais alguns para "fazer", nesses tempo todo ele mesmo poderia ter aprendido a dar nó, quem sabe ele não viraria o mestre gafanhoto do nó da gravata tailandêsa se tivesse treinado por todos esses anos? :D

[mallix2000]

i can do that quicker with my hands

[DunkleWurzlen]

That's awesome, but is certainly cheaper to learn how to knot.

[banzaibam]

I didn't know that robots also wear ties

[kuanxD]

he lost more time doing that than learning how to make a tie knot =P

[SpitFire1BR]

The machine auto applause is so cool!

[hosihaimuttyo]

遅いｗ

[gamagorigra]

早送りしてるとこ、かわいい

[fteogr]

Engineering porn

[Nickjpost]

Dude, I wear a double-windsor

[zikuunotansu]

手で締めてwww

[uniken100]

sooooo funny!!!

[JohannesVinke]

Friggin awesome!

[catluvr2]

LMAO

[Leodergenauder]

awesome!



[noninoD]

juemadre!!  ahora si me pongo corbata

[MrGlib1]

Wow, the sheer number of people who think this machine was created because the artist NEEDED his ties tied is staggering. Our educational system is seriously failing.

[MrGlib1]

You really don't get this, do you, TF2DrAwesomePHD?

[TF2DrAwesomePHD]

Why not knot the knot by yourself and not use a knot machine to knot you tie?

Oh lawdy

[uboatskipper]

Okay, now tighten the tie and put the critical dimple in the knot.

[uboatskipper]

Okay, now tighten the tie and put the critical dimple in the knot.

[SAMIMYS]

yesterday i received electricity bill...

(2KW per-day used only for necktie, $200...)

[taylorveltrop]

Thanks for showing the whole sequence in one shot too, or I'd never have believed it!

[9rockky]

myself is better

[MrFeghea]

@9rockky i'm agree, i can do it faster than this shit

[ToneEQ]

The sped up bit sounds like an Aphex Twin track

[hpzimmerfrei77]

lol

einfach genial

[elcrax]

O MY GOD! THIS IS SKYNET!!!

[tworowans]

Seth Goldstein - Nobel prize nomination for services to silliness!

[joekiddone]

Believe it or (k)not, this sculpture counted as an Obama shovel-ready saved-or-created job!

[LevyNskyPL]

What about Full Windsor ? ;)

[YoshioTube200X]

It's useless at all. But extremely impressive.

[xxevilxx]

Why isn't there already a remix of this?

[Depoetic2]

WOW. This would actually be an amazing thing for disabled people! AMAZING!

[belovedconsole]

I wear a necktie every few years. I would like to rent one of these machines, buy neckties from every era, have it tie them, and just hang them, to be used every few years, rotating with fashion accordingly! This design is amazing. It boggles my mind that someone figured out how to make a machine do this.

[MrJonnyKilljoy]

but can it play crysis?

[ShinFuYux]

I like how it gave itself a self applause at 2:04 lol

[danielnathana]

1:20 That beat is awesome.

[jklyank]

Exactly how I do it.

[SAMIMYS]

now i divorce my wife and buy this machine, it ties my necktie without nagging....

[ironman5454]

@SAMIMYS

'Wifey' attachment optional...

Please Indicate size: Sm/Med/Lg/Ex Lg/Holmes when ordering.

[betadryl]

nice one... this should be in a museum. raises some very interesting questions on modern society

[gunrobot]

but but.. it's not a Windsor!

[jerh7806]

that's awesome! thanks for the video

[scragz]

Do you trust your neck in there?

[utube2post]

wondering if it will be able to continue tying or untying correctly if the power supply is interrupted in the middle.

[FranckBeck]

Genial! Cada executivo do Brasil deveria ter uma dessas! Super prática  ¬¬

[eviboyd]

This is just brilliant. I feel better about the future now. This machine is just stunning. Excellent work!

[listenheed]

It sounds like a techno song when sped up.

[jimmyPain2121]

wish i had this thing at intermediate school, it took me like four times as long to tie a necktie

[rozilovesyou]

This would be super handy for people who can't tie a tie, I guess.

[sonicase]

faster than i can tie mine lol..

[aziangr1]

idk why but this made me so sad. i kept picture the beginning of Wall-E :'[

[guiolivfisio]

Muito bom, só não dá pra usar quando saindo de casa atrasado, demora muito....rs

[huskarV]

human getting more and more lazy everyday

[eyad85]

wow... this sounds imposable without seeing it ,,
