I was a tank commander in the US Army, and nothing was more comfortable than the M1 family of tanks and their reclining driver seat. WAY more comfortable than the previous (M60A3) class of tank. Also, I believe you're the only one who measures their 3D FDM prints in "tens of kilos"!
I was also on the M1, and M1A1. Totally agree. Best place to take a nap. Also, if you which to dutch oven your crew, best place to do a chemical attack. I can remember a few times during gunnery my crew was the "sensing tank" during Tank Table 8 at Ft. Polk. We had to traverse over the back so I could kick the driver's chair to wake him up. He had a hot mike and was snoring through the coms... DUH...
Absolutely love how you design with the expectation that you’re going to have to change it later! I’m sure all those removable pieces make life a lot easier :)
@@ivanmirandawastaken Hello Mr. Miranda, President Putin would like to have a talk with you... Apparently, he lost a few tanks recently during a little "special operation" and he's looking for a quick way to build new ones for a low cost. He also insisted that I tell you how much he likes to watch your channel! Have a good day Mr. Miranda...
I always knew you used a metric shitload of red filament, but it’s still insane seeing all of the raw spooled filament piled up. It really puts it into perspective how insane these projects are. Turning gigantic spools of plastic string into magnificent works of engineering beauty! And also some SPACERS!
Mind Blowing. I wish you had a second channel of content where you share your design process, techniques, etc! Thank you for the great stream of positive creativity! Do you have others that help you for design, printing, edited, etc ... or are you still a one-man show? Folks! JOIN or help Ivan on Patreon ... he's worth it!

Every video you say "go and make something" and then the beautiful inspirational music plays, I'm moved to tears. Thanks for spreading the maker spirit, you are an absolute inspiration to me. To me your channel is by far the most authentic, you are just an average guy who likes to make things, who fails, tries again, until he succeeds. It's so easy to see myself in your videos, and to understand that truly anyone can achieve greatness by just starting to do things. So much love from Germany

I know how you feel, which is why I've been designing so many small things over the years since I got my printer, the results are 'instant' compared to the multi-hour prints like this tank. My latest designs I uploaded are tiny TPU bungs that fill USB-C and Micro-USB sockets on drone flight controllers to stop debris getting in when you crash into the trees/bushes/ground, they only take 2 minutes each to print :)
I can just imagine playing some kind of real time strategy game and going to a building to click on "Build Miranda Tank - 1200 ISK" or something like that. Then a minute later hearing a soundbyte and shooting the baddies with it.
Not only is this an awesome project, but its so cool to see all the other projects you have made come together to make parts for your tank! I also love the small details you leave in like the break away spacers and cutting a washer to hold a spring down. I feel like a learn a lot from the videos :)
Seeing the sad news these days I would have thought we'd have seen enough of Ivans driving tanks. We can make a big exception for this Ivan tank though. It's looking great and well worth the long wait. Looking forward to seeing the finished tank. Thanks Ivan.
I am constantly amazed at the engineering prowess you have. If you offer someone else to drive your tank, ensure that he or she is not a pilot, as you have the pedals reversed from that in an aircraft!
Nice one Ivan! Do you find the ultra large format printer to be easier or harder to use than a smaller one? Bed adhesion, mesh levelling, massive extruder. What's the low down my man?!
I reeeeeaaaaalllly want to make your large format printer but I'm still learning the basics on my cr10s pro. Bed adhesion and z-axis setting... but once that's concurred, we'll have to race in our 3D printed tanks!😁 Awesome job as always!
@@ivanmirandawastaken I love seeing designers push 3D printing to new levels, you're definitely 'pushing the envelope' with your amazing print ideas :)
Wow so incredible! I want to build something like this- to place packages of my product ready for shipping. And to have the vehicle take them up to the front for FedEx to pick up. Then return to the loading area. Looks like fun!
Incredible! I just bought an Ender3 to get into 3D printing. I've been making small models for our upcoming DnD game, but this is just wild seeing a drivable RIDEABLE tank that's 99% 3D printed!

You can control the tank via a single joystick - north/south on the joystick = forwards/backwards and east/west = clockwise/anti-clockwise for turning. The programming is really simple - for example - map your sensor reading to a range of 0 - 1000 where all the dead space is mapped to 500 (no input) where 0 = south/1000 = north and 0 = west/1000 = east. Take the reading from the east/west joystick sensor as follows: difference = (eastwest - 500) * 0.5; (the 0.5 halves the input reading for less sensitivity) now ADD the difference to the north/south reading for the left motor and SUBTRACT the difference from the north/south reading for the right motor. (leftMotor = NorthSouth + difference; rightMotor = NorthSouth - difference)Trim off any values that are outside the range of 0 to 1000 then map these values to the motor controller software values (or stepper motor wait times between steps). This then leaves your other hand free to control the second joystick for the cannon. There is also another way and that is to mount the joystick so it scribes a diamond shape (rather than a square - rotate the square 45 degrees) with the sensors both at the bottom or top of the diamond (not both on the same side).
As usual, you never fail to impress. This thing is a beast! Seems to handle pretty smoothly. Can't wait to see it fully operational. I need to know your secret for getting such huge prints done so fast. My last print on my "normal" size printer was three smallish boxes about the size of pencil cases and it still took 30 hrs. Thanks for sharing!
In the description, it says you designed the seat yourself. Did you get the measurements online or did you measure yourself? If so, may I have those angles and measurements? Thanks!
This is the coolest project! I love seeing people make completely impractical, but fun, builds with 3D printing. I'm curious how much this weighs, and how much this costs to build in terms of material used. Keep up the great stuff!
Te das cuenta que un dia de estos vas a diseñar y montar algo que no podras sacar de tu taller?? Felicidades 😘 Did you noticed you will some day design and craft something you won't be able to take out of your workshop?? Congratulations 😘
¡Que maravilla Ivan!. El momento en el que te he visto moviendo la base del tanque con los pedales me ha dibujado una sonrisa en la cara. Me flipa como diseñas. Un saludo desde Málaga. 👍
I love this tank! one thing, tho. I would have made the controls for the cannon by my feet. Like the way bobcats control the bucket. Rotate the turret left and right with one foot, and move the cannon up and down with my other foot
What filament do you use for all of your projects? I thought I saw somewhere that it was PLA, but it's hard for me to believe that PLA would hold up for all of your more demanding projects.
hi Ivan, you've hit the mark again! your modifications are exceptional, even if the engines have reactions to the commands that are still a little too abrupt; you can probably modify the response curve by acting on the SW of the drivers, just to avoid that with a sharp acceleration you can tear some track pins i'll see you in next video
99.9999999% of 3d printer owners: my baby yoda prints are shitty, break at the slightest touch, warp, stop printing in hour 7 of 8, spaghetti, fall off the print bed in the breeze…. Ivan: I made a working human-scale tank that I can sit in using a room-sized 3d printer I made myself using parts I printed on my old self-made room-sized printer. Stay tuned next time for the cannon that throws 3d printed armor piercing HE rounds.

Hmm... Red PLA seems pretty hard to come by these days... Ah! Ivan must have a new video coming out soon!
And I suspect the delay in getting this edition out was due to printing all those gigantic parts. Epic build.

Once you have a 3D printer file (the hard frustrating part) the 3D printer just does its thing (for days).

Size of those prints is amazing.
