40 years from now i bet they will be looking like that, 80 years u'll have jax arms from mortal kombat, you gonna kick a$$ in the hood, i bet they'll only be available for a special force that requires you to cut off your arm first, you can shoot rockets out of it lol
One of the major problems with any armor suits is how how to cover the creases (for example: fingers, wrists, elbow creases, armpits, neck region, knee creases, ankles, hips.
David, this is Steve, inventor of Armore Fitness. I note that you have a concentric hinge for your elbow. You will have noticed that the arm does not work this way. You need to change this to a 37 degree bicentric hinge to eliminate the pumping that is going on with your model, causing the exoskeleton to move up and down on the forearm.
everyone mentions Jax from Mortal Kombat, Genos from one punch man, and Bucky the Winter Soldier from the MCU but no one ever mentions Cable of the X-Force from the 2nd Deadpool movie.
your channel is definitely worth a sub, people only look at all those big gamers, vloggers, bloggers etc. while the creative channels who probably put more time and effort in making the videos are not so popular
I gotta say, your videos are wildly entertaining. I recently ordered a pair of steel gauntlets (medieval variety, not one of your products) and I was so disappointed with the quality; as a tinkerer myself, I was blown away by the quality of your work. Instead of ordering anything else, I may just make my very own! Amazing work, liked and subbed, and keep it up. You’ve got serious skill!
This is awesome! It's really going to help me if I decide to cosplay as Edward Elric when I'm a little bit older, or maybe Alphonse, even if it means dying from carrying too much weight. Worth it! Definitely subscribing.
if this man can make this by hand just like the guys of older times, trust me someone of more resources, money, and technology is watching this and can advance this. I hope whoever that's watching this and thinking about advancing this recruit this guy. much respect to your work sir. hope you get far with this. I wouldn't doubt there's armor like we see in the games and movies in real life...
Tried twice and messed up. Turns out I'm like 8" taller than you and it really throws off the forearm. I've got the pattern right now, and I cant wait to show you in spring. I'll be working all winter!!
I utterly adore your builds and own a few of your templates. But something that I wish we had was static images of the various pieces to help with construction. Not necessarily 'attach this to this,' just some static images of the various pieces from different angles. I personally would find it very helpful, and I'm sure others might as well. Thanks so much for the templates and tutorials! :)
I'd wear it everywhere and actually convince most people that I lost it in some badass fight or something and that I was chosen for like a special program and that some of the wires allow me to feel like a regular arm and then one day show up without the bionic arm and confuse everyone because I have a regular arm.
"Dude, where's you prosthetic arm?" "I upgraded... This one is much better." *some time passes* "Dude you got the cool one back on, what's up with the one that looks real?" "It needed some tweaks..."
Incredible! To be honest, I've always wanted to actually replace my left arm with an actually bionic arm. I find it interesting how it integrates into the nervous system, and the chance to potentially have a super arm is a pretty cool idea to.
I can let you in on a cool idea for an invisible latch . This type armor, especially futuristic armor that is not supposed to be seen, as though the robot is seamless. I owned and operated a special effects shop throughout the 80s and 90s contracting to television and movies. I learned a lot of cool tricks, especially when working with other artist like Rick Bakker or Rob Botin. To make the latch, you used a piano hinge, I always preferred aluminum stock. You cut the necessary size you need from the hinge, usually the full length of the joint. Be careful not to cut the hinge pin, you will need that for the latch. We usually put a piano hinge on the opposite side from the latch, but that one had its pin. I would cut the pin for the latch side a few inches longer than the hinge was cut. Then bend a 90 degree turn at the point the pin exits the hinge. That stops it from going in too far and works as a handle to use to pull it out. Oh, I also used to sand a point on the other end of the latch pin, not necessarily a sharp point, just diminished enough to made it glide its way back into the hinge without hanging. You have to replace the pin back into the latch hinge to attach it to the armor. Now you attach both hinges to each side of the armor with whatever medium you like. You can rivet it, glue it or fiberglass it into place. The hinges can be on the inside of the armor if, you want it invisible. It has such a low profile, it has never caused any discomfort with actors or stuntmen who wore our suits. Once the glue has hardened on both sides, the hinges will stay forever lined up perfectly. If you slide out the pin, using the 90, the armor should clamshell open. Place it on the actor, clamshell it around their arm and the hinge joints will line up perfectly and you can slide the pin back in and it will latch that side. Rotate the 90 degree turn on the pin until it is flush with the suit and the effect should be strong, but invisible. I apologize if you all ready knew this technique. I don’t know if anyone else has used it, but I can imagine others thought of it, it’s not rocket science. I learned it on my own, like I did most of the tricks of the trade, so I don’t know how common it may be in use. Great job on the armor. I’m impressed because it’s made from steel. In Hollywood, it would fabricated from vacu-form, fiberglass or some other light weight material, because actors are wimps and believe it or not, so are some of the stunt people. Whine like babies. If you put that steel on some actors, they would bitch from morning until the director calls it a day. There were other reasons. Often they needed several suits, one for the actor, one for the stunt people, which could be several and one for the stand-in. Suits get destroyed in some action scenes, so it’s best to have mold to quickly pull another and just paint it to look metal. I’d love to really do one in metal! i never have. Great job! Keep up the good work.
I never thought about doing a hinge on both sides like that. It's an excellent idea and I will be sure to use it on future builds. I came up with my own invisible latchless system on my Infinity Gauntlet build, but it was more complicated than that. And although a stuntman or actor might complain about the limited articulation of this piece, it actually only weighs about 4 lbs total. It's not heavy at all. But like you said...if they are wimps they will complain anyway haha
i'm in the hospital for 7 months now, i'm going to amputate my right leg and i'll have to use a prosthetic leg, somehow i found this video while i was searching for prosthetic legs and stuff... this is amazing work and made me think that it is a cool thing to add to a costume for me for halloween... wish i have one of those :(
OMFG!😲 This is amaaaaaazing! Dude, you did a really great job! This is fascinating,- in wish i could do/make it too! Congratulation, that you finished your product- keep Wirkung on your cool ideas! 😎- You should work in an industry, where people develop bionic arms for people, who have no arms or for e.g. no legs-so that you could be the savior for this "disabled" People. keep on moving on!
Very Impressive! This is the first video I've seen of yours, so please forgive my ignorance with my next question. Have you ever been approached to create cosplay outfits?
I just might build myself an Automail arm! I’d of course be doing most of the design on my own, but if you don’t mind, I’d like to use the gauntlet section of your arm.
Have you ever tried salt water etching instead of painting designs on your pieces? It is very easy and can produce beautiful results. I use etching on my blades, I have just gotten into armoring.
Other than the fact that it's a metal arm, no, there's no direct influence from FMA. The muscle structure is based on my own muscles and nothing else. I suppose you could say the knuckles are similar, but it's meant to be original and not a copy of anything that already exists.
Cool, thanks for the reply. I'm no metal worker, I would love to be, but I do do some cosplay stuff with EVA Foam. I'm wondering if I could apply these plans with EVA instead. Hmm. If I come up with something, I'll shoot some pictures your way.
I did experiment with some bulletproof armor, and I also built an Iron Man gauntlet....but not combined. Adam Savage successfully built titanium bulletproof Iron Man armor though.
If real bionic arms look like that, I wouldn't mind losing my arm.
And the other??
40 years from now i bet they will be looking like that, 80 years u'll have jax arms from mortal kombat, you gonna kick a$$ in the hood, i bet they'll only be available for a special force that requires you to cut off your arm first, you can shoot rockets out of it lol
Unril it starts rusting
Prosthetic arms already look like that
Nice one
Now he can catch Cap. America’s shield

YOU HAVE A METAL ARM?? THAT'S AWESOME DUDE!!
I get that reference
I UNDERSTOOD THAT REFERRENCE
If I loose my arm make sure to have mines like Bucky's
BRO SAME I WHOULD LOVE THAT

I love hearing this! Doing it yourself is the only way to go!
if I ever lose a limb, please make my prosthetic. I don't care if it works or not. just make me look like a total badass.
I thought it was a prop, but then i saw that you made it out of steel. Thats insane.
I should clarify i mean that i thought it would be made out of some kind of foam and be solely aesthetic
This is awesome! It's really going to help me if I decide to cosplay as Edward Elric when I'm a little bit older, or maybe Alphonse, even if it means dying from carrying too much weight.

YOU ARE THE BEST!!! ITS PEOPLE LIKE YOU THAT MAKES THE NET FUN!!! SHARING YOUR TALET IS SO WONDERFUL!! THANKS!!!
Thanks Leon I really appreciate that!
You could add some leds inside to make it look like it's energized.
i should be sleeping...why am i watching some dude making a bionic arm?
Slavic Power because you clicked on the video when you saw the title and thumbnail
Slavic Power me too
Slavic Power Oh really?
David, we're impressed by your handiwork. We'll be reaching out to you.
He's literally the winter soldier. This is my first time watching any of his videos and I've got to say, I'm definitely going to be watching more.
You took brass knuckles to a whole new level man.
This video should be called : How to become the winter soldier from Captain America
ProCakeMan Playz
or
how to make voltrons shiro bionic arm
It really hurts to connect the nervous system to the arm itself.
Tried twice and messed up. Turns out I'm like 8" taller than you and it really throws off the forearm. I've got the pattern right now, and I cant wait to show you in spring. I'll be working all winter!!
Looking forward to it! But I am just over 6ft tall. 8" taller than me would make you a potential NBA star

I saw the video and I immediately thought "Winter Soldier."
if I had one of those, I'd probably never want to take it off.
Jonathan Courtney me neither
*You have a metal arm ? , that is awesome dude*
This looks like full metal alchemist automail
this would be perfect for full metal alchemists cosplay
Amazing workmanship dude. Beautiful.

nice to see someone who can make a body prop that looks great and is practical
This arm would make the winter soldier look even more cool
Woah. As a Fan of Fullmetal Alchemist, I think this is Amazing!!!. I want to make one now!!
You have a metal arm? That is awesome, dude!

I'm gonna need this Guy's Arm.
-Rocket Raccoon
I got Fullmetal Alchemist vibes
Just add a red star on the shoulder and you're done 😂
It looks like Jax's arms from Mortal Kombat
yes ,you are right i like it
first character I thought of when I saw the metal arm was Jax Briggs
if you don't already have a job in engineering or the movie biz then you my good sir...are on your way. cheers mate!
Next year, my big brother is going to be Bucky (the Winter Soldier) for Halloween, and I'm loosely following this tutorial for the arm. Good work.
Thank you i can finally make a realistic Jax arms for next years Halloween
Cant wait to ask my crush out with these arms

It's very awesome, but the wrist part of the gauntlet glove is overly bulky
I'm surprised no one's made a winter solder joke yet
Because he mentioned it like 15 seconds into the video
Ik
Badass background music too 👍
Did you get inspiration from the anime Full Metal Alchemist? Because the design looks identical to Edward Elric's Automail. Really awesome.
Khaos Production I was thinking the same thing but it's not really "identical"but I see what you mean
possibly, since he mentioned FMA
Other than the fact that it's a metal arm, no, there's no direct influence from FMA. The muscle structure is based on my own muscles and nothing else. I suppose you could say the knuckles are similar, but it's meant to be original and not a copy of anything that already exists.
Mate, that is a great build. The level of movement you get in that when it’s on is perfect. Well done.
bucky would be jealous
Yoy have a metal arm? That is awesome dude!
Are you selling these arms? If do, i would buy it right now hahah. But if not, can you tell me how much time it takes to make it?
This is the coolest thing ive ever seen
You SERIOUSLY need to start selling these. How much to buy one made to my arm size?
That looks awesome, David! Can I ask how the mobility is in that thing?
It's not great, but it's not terrible either. If I had to wear it for any length of time I might make a few adjustments but it's not bad

this is amazing !! and only for 55$ wow
And it will leave you with one extra glove and enough metal left over for a smaller project in the future too
If I wore that arm I feel like I can just punch through anything lol
Agreed.
How would you construct the arm
using Eva foam? Want to start on a Cable build for next year.
I've never worked with foam so I am afraid I can be of little help
From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh

How much would it cost to buy this from you? Or make me one?

So which arm should I loose. I'm right handed and my left arm is pretty much useless
Lmfaoo
I need this maybe it will help me defeat the legend 27
This is the epitome of cool. Thanks for the inspiring work.

Awesome. It's a nice tool to have once it works.
Imagine people using your designs to make bulletproof armor
this stuff remind me alot of Edward Elric more than Winter Soldier
damn..
really nice job
..i am thinking with a few modifications, mostly visual, it could be great for a winter soldier costume
He could add something to his hand that when he touches something it gets shocked
