Giant Robot Project: Part 23 New Rails

[windsunh2o]

Hi Jaimie and Dashania! I just wanted to let you both know that I love you. I guess I could write other junk here but I know you both will understand that nothing else is needed! Keep living your lives. It gives me hope =)

[frosty9595]

Jamie you completely forgot your notches!

[djdaanke]

my but hurts because i'm siting on my chair watching your movies for about already euhrm 4 hours ! :d

[6stringedkiller]

looks like a lot of blood, sweat, and beer went into this project

[rwhendrix]

I agree. Tools wont make anything without a strong imagination. Both are best though. lol

[kryptonicloser]

sweet this was posted on my b-day

[Rohan2300]

that is a great impersonation on the trampoline :P

[extreeeeeemist]

jamies the man

[gladiadordeyaniree]

ahhh so cute the couple joking escene

[breezebro]

The puzzle should help him. Yeah, total immersion will help him learn the language and English measurement system too.

[snilton]

Dude, tell me youre hitting that

[F0gstridEr]

06:50 <--- WORD :)

[ihurtpuppies]

Jamie, ur just plain awesome.

i keep checkin youtube to see how ur robots coming along. i wish i hadnt discovered you til the whole thing was finished :) haha

im gonna make a t-shirt with "imagination > tools" printed across it in honor of you :D

[kstarsmiles]

Trampoline is a nice addition to the dome compound!

[ryansuen]

is that your wife/girlfriend?,because that's seriously messed up if shes your daughter,you spanked her..............

[dracheous]

Has anyone else called you "Hami" yet?

[Bennyg257]

you guys got a trampoline!

[inviktus1983]

ytmnd

[inviktus1983]

Wtf thats not the comment I replied to... O_o

Is it just me or is youtubes commenting system fucked?

[JMEMantzel]

yes... youtube's commenting system is totally screwed up. It used to be good, but then they broke it. :-P

[JMEMantzel]

yep. Its fun. :-)

[Nesformers]

youre like a aerospacial tecnicician or something

[kchididdy]

you are the man.

[JMEMantzel]

I'm still a kid. :-P

[mansheep22]

so im confused, you built a tree-house, which was initially going to be your shop, but it ended up being your house. The dome, which was going to be your house, ended being a well house. This left you in need of a workshop, so you built your banana building for a workshop. Lol is that right?

[JMEMantzel]

uhh... sort of.... but not really. I got the banana building unexpectedly, and figured it would be better workshop than the tower.  The tower is unfinished. I built the big dome first.

[xstyr]

Seriously love these videos :)

[JMEMantzel]

Thanks! I have about 4 more worth of video saved up... I'll have to edit some tonight.  argh

[31toyota]

nice

[JMEMantzel]

thanks!

[saltwaterwop]

Keep up the good work you 2

She really is getting good at doing the Dashaimie impression.

I second the request for some video of the Canadian Hoover Dam Hydroelectric plant.

[JMEMantzel]

heh heh. yes... she's hilarious.

[alberto4532]

wow, looks like almost ready to land on the moon :) when you do more welding be sure to just use lots of fans, my dad was a welder and has like Parkinsons disease.

[JMEMantzel]

aw crap! I better not get sick. argh. I'll try to be careful

[zeewrath]

great vids as normal, when do you think you will get to filming some of the hydroelectric generator thingy?

[JMEMantzel]

ohh... er....ya.... the hydro thingy. I haven't finished that yet. umm... AGH! Slaves! I need slaves!

[slopedarmor]

stupid questions like why don't you have a fancy table?

that was me! :)

[JMEMantzel]

ha ha. Good one. :-P

[theproof7]

whether or not this works, hats off to ya !

:]

[JMEMantzel]

Thanks. but.... it must work!

[palmisano]

Hehe, stoopid canadians . . .

And its soooo much better to have tools than to imagine having them =P

[JMEMantzel]

err...  what you say has no meaning.

[fresheyeball]

The footage with you drilling, was one of the most beautiful things I have ever seen. You made my day. Thank you.

[dirtTdude]

send him a countersink bit and you'll be really impressed

[JMEMantzel]

ya... I need one of those. :-P

[JMEMantzel]

ha ha. I wonder why that is.

[kahunabear]

Good to see the project back on track!

[JMEMantzel]

Ya, its going awesome now too! I'll get more video up soon, but I'm too busy building!

[tallyhoroad]

Are you really Canadian? or are you just being funny?

Very cool robot project! Do you thing I could rig up a 30ft. di. Dome out of 3/4 conduit and make it livable for the winter? I need suggestions on covering and insulation options! I like your channel and vids. I hope to make a response video when I get the bush lot!

Tyler from Canadia!!

[TheGreatSteve]

He's a Canadian but his land is in America.

[JMEMantzel]

tis indeed. Less building code issues.

[JMEMantzel]

I am actually Canadian. I grew up in Ontario.

Ya, you can totally make a dome like that. Get a clear tarp, and it'll have a greenhouse effect. ...keeping it warm in the day. Get a big woodstove for night time, though! :-)

You could always do what I do. Wall off a smaller room to heat at night.

[tallyhoroad]

Hey, I'm from and living in Parry Sound and looking for land. Thank you I've been saving a big mumma bear stove from my old house and it can hold a ton of 18 inch logs :) Thanks for the info man! Have you seen the video for PAT (pumps as turbine) , these clever are using centrifugal pumps off the shelf and pushing water through the out spinning it backwards. Tre cool!!

[futsalfred2]

Holy moly, the robot looks awesome

[JMEMantzel]

thanks!

[shadowace421]

good luck conquering the world with that thing, but seriously dont come by my house witht that thing

[JMEMantzel]

I have no interest in conquering the world. :-P People can keep their problems to themselves!

[TheGreatSteve]

I was thinking, even if somebidy did conquer the world, what would they do with it afterwards?

[shadowace421]

? what couldn't you do?? P.S-im just sayin, its not like im crazy or anything :)

[shadowace421]

lol that makes sense, but still dont come by my house, you might break stuff...or blow up on my lawn

[Nesformers]

hahahahahah... i cant stop kidding....

[JMEMantzel]

maybe you're a kid.

[Nesformers]

the doctor dont think so

[Nesformers]

and where are the legs...... i wanna see some legs

[JMEMantzel]

oh... right. This thing is supposed to have legs???

[Nesformers]

oh man..... youre getting old..... ;)

[JMEMantzel]

oh dang! Not old!

[djAmiracle]

awesome, your videos just keep getting better and better, and its great to see everything falling into place :)

[JMEMantzel]

Oh good.  I wasn't sure if I was getting more boring. :-P

[domenriono]

it looks like a juicer right about now

[JMEMantzel]

Ya. a juicer for watermellons! ha ha

[domenriono]

i was gonna say human heads but....

[JMEMantzel]

Its funny running into a conversation in the middle. ....right when someone says something like "human heads"

[domenriono]

ooookay?

[kattejuice]

I, kattejuice..., TOTALLY agree with what you say at 6:23 to 7:08

[JMEMantzel]

heh heh. ya.  imagination can do more than any material tool.

[artistkeith3]

We call those with tons of expensive tools "equipment hounds". They spend lots of money but never make much. The true creative can make amazing stuff out of almost nothing. The same applies to musicians (lots of nice amps and guitars but no talent) and artists (tons of paint, canvas and expensive brushes but can't paint worth a crap). Equipment hounds are everywhere, every profession. You sir, are no equipment hound, but ARE a crazed genius. Can't wait to see the finished ROBOT! Rock on, J!

[dirtTdude]

I agree with your assessment of equipment hounds, the truly gifted craftsmen will create with very little however, give the same creative craftsman some equipment, materials and sharp tools and there projects jump from functional to art. I'd give Jaimie a vertical milling machine if i had one

[JMEMantzel]

wooo.... milling machine.... mmmmm.... that'll be on my list after I finish the banana building

[dirtTdude]

i don't know, a milling machine would be sweet. no doubt... just one question, would a hypothetical vertical milling machine interfere with indoor trampoline real-estate?

[paperjack93]

What is the glass that she's holding during about the 4th minute ?

[blogs454]

Its the mat that she was making the jigsaw on.

[dirtTdude]

its a plastic craft bored for making quilts, scrap books and other crafty things... Dashina is creative

[robotwo]

Yaaaaay 8D , MORE UPDATES :)

I wanna see some legs , hope to see another update soon :B

[kukelz]

cool, tnx for the update. Looking forward to the next episode!

[breezebro]

Those people with the great workshops use up all their imagination figuring out where to hang stuff on the wall. At 6:30 you look like Captain Kirk with your Star Trek shirt on, explaining to Spock about the need for human imagination.LOL ...or maybe It's cause I just watched the new Star Trek movie!

[AMonteverdi]

dam what you said about imagination just make realise how much important is been creative thank you sooo much Jamie jaja btw nice name Dashaina maybe when i have a girl in a future i may name her like you jeje

[AMonteverdi]

zaaaarpado que buena onda!!!!!!!!!! jaja its 3 am and i found the video has been uploaded some hours ago dam i cant wait to see the video!

[DannysCam]

hey man how do you get internet in those woods? i allways wonder about that

[dirtTdude]

he could connect through his cell phone and connect to a free dialup ISP but he connects to a high speed WIFI in town

[JMEMantzel]

ya. thanks for answering for me. :-)

[dirtTdude]

I do what I can `;-) .... yeah, sorry.

[korko3]

The robot is taking shape once again!!!

[dirtTdude]

looks like your together now, couldnt ask for a better dome companion, Dashaina is pretty neat. Might want to start thinking about that hot water heater ;-)

[roboman79]

Haha she makes a good you!

Awesome update, can't wait till the next one!

[hobbexp]

nice ,,, hope you post more videos soon,

[idahodad1]

You made a great case for imagination, and inspire those to set out and build even though they don't have a machine shop yet.

[togaida]

Wow, she is a dead ringer for you.

Oh yeah...Einstein said: Imagination is more important than knowledge and your robot design (albeit freehand) is the epitome of that...cool, just so cool.

[hiimrichhehe]

good luck with the sun

[ShawnCFarm]

Hurry up and finish it lol, I want to see what your going to make next. Just kidding, I know full well what its like to run out of stuff like money when your building stuff . Keep up the good work.

[Zekian]

You can see it starting to take shape, Thanks for posting =] and Dashaina does a surprisingly good impression of you. =P

[JMEMantzel]

argh! I better not let her see this comment! ha ha.

[timmyd24601]

That trampoline bit was spot on! The robot is looking good Jamie! keep it up!

[awsutherland]

She does a pretty good Mantzel.

[JMEMantzel]

oh great. Everyone seems to think so. When she sees this page, I'll never hear the end of it. :-P

[Nesformers]

hey jme about the robot wich work power is going to have and what the hell have you studied

[ilovearcher2]

Lol i cant wait untill the robot is done

[JMEMantzel]

ya, me too. Then you can fast forward through all this boring stuff. ha ha

[Tolan69]

What boring stuff? =]

[Nesformers]

yeah jme isnt boring is only getting old xD

[JMEMantzel]

HA! First comment.

[iConiCFX]

lol
