Sweet!

[@Lwyz]

Whoah that is impressive !!

[@NiHaoMike64]

The drawing of an octopus hugging you reminds me of Sarah Petkus and her interesting project.

[@napkin62]

Amazing idea

[@anthonyatienza3363]

Have you tried using nitinol wire in order to replace the motors and make it more compact while having smoother movements? I'm trying to find inspiration for a project I consider doing sometime later on.

[@LongPigg]

You could create interesting motion by simply having a wire running down the centre with a wave bent into it, then by rotating the wire the leg would move... if you follow.

[@maskedmarvyl4774]

Thanks for the demonstration! I didn't expect you to be so cute; it was actually difficult to focus on the tentacle.
Love your glasses....

[@Astrobiologica]

Nice

[@asnelandre5036]

Cool

[@jordandavidson9764]

Is it possible to get the disc stl file from you? I am working on a doc ock costume and wanted to adapt some of your ideas if that’s okay!

[@3dpprofessor]

Great music.

[@BarbMakesThings]

i think i'm going to stick to electro swing for this project :)

[@hansdegroot9300]

Tinkercat makes your work lots easyer.

[@iamfuckingyourwaifuandther2743]

Yea, sure you were inspired by a robot owl, sure you were, we believe you.

[@doomgod314]

Don’t have a 3d printer. Or 110v power. Using sheet metal. 😛

[@pavelandreev9110]

I don't know why...
But I always though that the first woman that make robotic tentacal will be Japanese.
Welll we will never know.
