Upgraded Armor Mounting for an Antweight - Patching a Combat Robot Ep02

I'm not quite yet to fixing the weapon because I have one more chassis upgrade to complete. 3D Printed Armor allows for more unique options to attaching it to insect class combat robots. In this video, I am developing a system that should allow for armor to be replaced much faster in between fights.

I somehow really liked the intro with just hacking away at the chassis, it gave me a cinematic vibe like some other youtubers do, but they slow down the footage, put some music behind it and make it like a 2-3 minute segment lol. I really do like these "just working on the bot" shots and honestly I like it more when it's just the sounds of the tools instead of some dubstep track violating my ears in the background.
4:35 So you're saying you've rejected reality and instead substituted it with your own?
But putting wubs between parts to reduce shocks is pretty common practice, I think your internal physics engine is pretty well aligned with reality and it will probably help lighten the loads on the bolts holding the armor ring in place.
Also your method of modelling in Blender came quite handy a couple of days ago, I downloaded some STL off thingyverse to print but the dimensions of a hole were wrong and it wouldn't fit, I was about to make an entirely new part in CAD but then I remembered your channel and fired up Blender, moved some vertices a bit, printed it and it came out perfect. I wouldn't have thought to use Blender for something like that if it weren't for your channel, so thanks!

"So you're saying you've rejected reality and instead substituted it with your own?". Yes that sounds about right. To clarify my point a bit about the physics model in my head not matching reality, I'm not sure if the stress from a vertical spinner would actually work the way I described in the video. Given the flexibility of nylon armor, it is possible that the thin tabs take the impact or even the epoxy holding the brass posts could fail.
Finally, I'm glad that some basic blender skills proved be helpful.
