    I dont know if you'll read this, but thank you so much for this video. I remember when i was in 4th grade my teacher (who was running the talent show) was doing Party Rock Anthem, and he personally invited and wanted me and my little brother to wear the robot head. I looked at many videos, but nun of them were very helpful at the time, mostly because it was either in another language or was a timelaps of them building without directions or instructions. Then I stumbled upon your video and you saved me two days before the Talent Show. So i followed your instructions and i cant thank you enough. You will forever be the legend that saved me and my brother.
    With Love ❤️

    @AlexxJansson yeah that would work. The cardboard absorbs the paint so anything you can do to seal it or absorb it with another paint helps. White wood paints do both, but anything is better than nothing.

    @jmt731 it's won't look "bad"... it just looks better if you prime the box to seal it from absorbing alot of the gold paint and making it look a little more dull. But really... it won't look bad. It's just a small detail that makes it look even better.

    @adamvalo12 Great Question! I took screen shots from the music videos and online photos of the box head. I measured the width of my friends shoulders to give me a reference point and then I put the images into AutoCAD and scaled the images to the correct reference size (my friends shoulders being the baseline). From there I could get the dimensions of everything. Of course if the ACTUAL shufflebot has bigger or smaller shoulders than my friend - there will be some error in size.

    @MrLuffy9131 ur welcome! glad you found lights. There is a stack at the 99cent store down the road. I've been surprised how hard it's been for people to find them. For the LEDs: The reason I made the cylinders the way I did was so the lights could pop in/out, since it's cardboard and plastic and it gives a little. You just have to cut the holes they sit in correctly. Then you reach up through the holes in the helmet and you can pull them out, turn them on/off etc. Glue has held great so far!

    @cheewll they are usually near the tools and automotive stuff... but if not there you can always get some from walmart or target or a bike store. They are just bike lights. They'll be around $9 or so if you can't find them at a 99cent store... good luck!

  • @BrandonMLarson
    @BrandonMLarson  12 лет назад

    @reymisteriocheese yeah you could, but it's a bit too fine... and since it was chosen b/c it hides your face pretty well, it might hide the light too much. And actually - if you wanted to skip the mesh on the eyes all together - it doesn't look that bad. I just put that mesh there to give the perception of depth...

    @BrandonMLarson  13 лет назад

    @MrChagers36 I tried a few local stores with limited success, but I did find some shipping companies that had them. I noticed that McMaster Carr has them (Part Number 2056T121), but you have to buy 10. As long as you are within 11-12" W x 11-12" L x 15-16" H, it will have the right proportions. Party Rock Anthem uses a slightly diff box than Sexy and I Know It. If you use something other than 12x12x16 tho, you'll have to tweak the mouth dimensions a little from what I used.

  • @BrandonMLarson
    @BrandonMLarson  12 лет назад

    it's a roll of webbing. you use it to make a chin strap like you would have on a helmet. Cut two pieces, attach one end of each to the helmet, get the length right, then put the clips on the two remaining ends. Clip it, cinch it, shuffle.

    It's called AutoCad. It's made by Autodesk. It's a design/engineering/drafting tool. It's super old - I bought it in 2000, but works great for simple stuff. There are alot of inline sketch tools for 3D models. Try Google Sketchup or PTC Creo if you have an interest. Good luck!

  • @BrandonMLarson
    @BrandonMLarson  13 лет назад

    @KEVINSAWESOME1 This is one of the reasons the big holes were cut in the hat as well as having the lights able to pop in and out of the tubing they sit in. You can reach up into the upper section and turn them on or off as well as pop them out to replace the batteries. I think this is alot cleaner than having an opening or removable side to the box.

There will be 8 total going to auction. I'm still working on a few details. Price will start at $25 (~cost of materials) - everything above that goes to cancer research! I'm hoping they sell for $40-50 each... or more! We shall see. I'll post something by Saturday.

    @brownie1622 look for any ~4" diameter tubing... I used a shipping tube. There are all sorts of thing you could try... centers of tape rolls, plastic tubes (tho harder to cut), etc... get creative - half the fun is solving the problem!

  • @uviedo
    @uviedo 13 лет назад

    Great Video!!! All I have left to do is put on the ears. I had to make adjustments because I could not find that size box. So, I had to readjust your measurements (WHICH WERE GREAT) to my 15 x 15 x 16 box. And I found the LED lights at the 99cent store but they were not exact like yours. So, I had to make adjustments there, too.
    But this was the Best Video I found on RUclips for the Shufflebot!!! Thank you Very Much!! Are you an engineer or just architecturally gifted?

  • @BrandonMLarson
    @BrandonMLarson  13 лет назад

    @TheLoganu Seems to be some trouble finding them at the 99 cent stores now... so i found them on amazon and a few other online stores. prices range from $2-$19 tho. Search "Red Yellow Bicycle Light" on google or google image and you'll be able to track some down.

  • @BrandonMLarson
    @BrandonMLarson  13 лет назад

    @KEVINSAWESOME1 glad you liked it - yeah all good design starts with thinking about how it will be used, both now and in the future. Access to batteries was important. Even the height it sits off your head is important so if you tilt your head and shrug, you won't damage it, even the mesh choice and all sorts of little details. Yeah it just a stinking box that sits on your head, but those extra details will always help a project shine a little brighter. Have fun with your project!

  • @BrandonMLarson
    @BrandonMLarson  13 лет назад

    @jagungbusuk If you have the same LED's you'll need to use roughly the same diameter tubes. The tubes need to be around 4" in diameter plus or minus a little. The best way to see what size you need to to measure the length of the LED, then size your tube to give you the ability to support the LED. Too big and the LED will fall out. Too small and you won't be able to see the yellow. I hope that helps! Good luck!

    @roberthedrick1 117,000 views later and I was wondering when someone would catch that! Good eye! Here's some behind the scenes: That was Shufflebot Head # 001. The mouth was a little too big and the eyes not 100% correct and I had not decided what I would do about the ears... the one I make in the video and is shown at the end... that is Shufflebot Head # 002... much improved. Shuffle Bot heads # 003 through 010 were even better and I'm glad the folks that have them love them!

    Dang! Foiled by RUclips again (sometimes my updates don't take). For the tubes, anything that is 4" in diameter and can be cut "easily" will work. I used shipping tubes, can be ordered online or picked up at post office. 4" diameter is the key. Then just cut down to about 2-3" or so height. As far as LED lights. I've got a few left, so yes! Send me a message and we'll set it up. $10 if you are in the states. Batteries not included... hope that helps!

    @BrandonMLarson  13 лет назад

    @MrLuffy9131 p.s. another option i was playing with but didn't test... was to glue everything like I've done, but don't glue one of the box flaps closed. Instead, use some velcro to keep it shut. Seems to work in theory, but I can imagine that the adhesive on the velcro and strength of the velcro might actually rip the box if opened and closed alot... just a thought. Many ways to skin a cat!

    @SurgeRapper I got the mesh I used online from a parts megacenter called McMaster-Carr. If you google them or go to mcmaster dot com, it's part # 85385T707. Copy paste that in. It's $4 in a 12"x12" sheet. You can also get some screen door mesh from home depot. Use two layers tho, it's really blocks the light in, but lets you see out well. I also noticed that you can get see-through car window shades from the 99cent store... that would work well. I just prefer the metal.

    I went through all 984 comments, 100 pages of comments looking for the what has been referred to as the "description" and can't find it. I did find it just over a month ago, but can't now, don't know why. Now I need to build it in time for Halloween and still need a few things. Where is the "description" ??? Any help/links would be appreciated.
