hey y’all, just popping in here to point out the straight claws “issue” : this was mainly done to keep these as “slim” as possible, I know that the claws are supposed to be flared a bit. I’m mainly commenting this because i’m getting a ton of messages about it, I promise it’s something I’m aware of haha. there’s a few ways to make them more flared but I opted for the straight claws to save space!
Easy fix. Well, maybe not easy, exactly, but by offsetting the outer two claws' slide-holes biassed out from center and mounting the corresponding claws with a little bit of swing allowance, probably with a hinge and spring, the claws can store straight and flare out when deployed. Maybe a version of the claws with the base plate attached can use a compliant hinge. Still a fantastic print! Would have loved to see some of the engineering iterations. Probably a whole separate video.
@@bloodbound696i kinda think the sound bits they use for a sword/knife sliding out of its sheathe would be nice. That very clean and clear *shing* but that might be better for the times its a slower extension, which would also be an interesting thing: if she could make a way to have a fast extension and slow extension
I love that moment at 15:10 when the motor sounds like it is having an error and you stare down the barrel of the claw slot. I'm sure you could react in time if they accidentally popped out, but it would have been perfect comedic timing.
Awesome! What you essentially made is the Gen 1 Wolverine claws. Wolverine's claws started as part of his gloves, then became a Weapon X addition, then a natural part of his mutation.
@@bigguy7353 The claws were originally designed as part of his gloves. There was a book I read ages ago (can't remember what it was) but it had Wolverine give captain America a set of his gloves which contained the claws. When Chris Claremont took over writing the X-men (Starting with Uncanny X-men #94) he made the claws a part of wolverines powerset, and even had one of the X-men comment on them something along the lines of "we had no idea the claws were a part of your body" If I remember correctly that was issue #98-97 of Chris Claremonts X-men run. From there it was common place for future X-men/wolverine writers to write the claws being a part of wolverines mutation.
Oh my gosh these are amazing! I was literally trying to find a decent retractable claws tutorial for a wolverine cosplay all week and here you are saving my life! I feel like there's really not much for v2 you'd need to improve on, maybe just overall slimming down the design and reducing the chance of failure. Maybe seeing if the claws can come out at a higher speed but even how they are now feels just about right
This solves one of the two fundamental issues with a comic/movie character cosplay. Wolverine's claws were almost exclusively "in or out" or you had to have some kind of mechanism to release them, but it was all done by hand at some point. This actually makes a functional set of claws that gives the illusion of being real. The other cosplay issue is light saber blades, they have the exact same issue... that one might be a bit harder to solve, though :D
There are actually retractable lightsaber blades that extend/retract with a motor while also still being able to light up. Not sure exactly how it works but there are a few videos and shorts you can find that show it off, and it looks pretty convincing (if a bit slow) for videos. Probably not for sparring though lol
@null_verdict they aren't for mass production, only a prototype used for Galactic Star Cruiser and other Disney events/locations. You're right, the blade is extremely fragile and cannot be used for contact.
@@CalebBradshaw-x2c after walking away from a deal with a guy that had made a powered one, it looks like Hasbro is going to partner directly with Disney to make a working model for consumer purchase. Probably not till next year though.
Always so interesting to see what people can come up with and how compact it can be. Even if it is slightly big, it still looks pretty compact and by the time you add a suit I feel like it'd be very much in scale, awesome work!

I think youtube changed their recommendation algorithm. I used to get only shit in my recommendations, now ive been getting some amazing stuff, like this video! The gauntlet looks amazing, and much more compact than I'd expected
WoW! Super good design and reveal. Natural teacher. Great job K, If you are a team of one, Fantastic!!! If you are a part of a team, Fantastic!!! As a 59 year old builder, I am proud of you. Keep it going.
That is seriously the coolest thing I've seen on the internet in a long time! I'm jealous, I know I don't have the skills to make them but want them SO badly.
I have to say that this is one of the coolest things I've ever seen. Not to mention, you look cool wielding them. Doing a Wolverine suit with it would be so cool.
This is some damn fine engineering. This design you came up with can be adapted to all kinds of other props that have an extending function. X-23 claws, Predator, etc. A variation with extending gun barrels can also be cool. I think the bulked up arms actually work for this. Subscribed.
Need to figure out a way to have the center one on its own track with a separate program to extend just the middle claw so you can flip people off like in the first movie lol
😢they look so good it hurts 😢 definitely the best ones I’ve seen so far ,also this is the only one I’ve seen that looks like it’s coming from the nuckles and not the wrist 🔥🔥🔥🫡
Hit the gym, get some snatch, those desires will be cured. You may even get a job after that. Before you know it, you'll never understand why you were going to vote for Kamala.
eeeek how did I only just see this video now! These are freaking cool, it's so hard to make mechanical things work for real that are magic or superpowers in fiction and you did a great job there. I'm gonna steal the extra steep lead screw idea for one of my projects. I did not expect the claws to be driven by a screw when I saw the intro.
You're my favorite person right now and I want one of those printers. I used to make wolf masks by hand before these printers came out now I wanna get back into it
WE'RE NOT WORTHY!!!....Super impressed with this build, you've cracked the mystery, you've done the undoable, Wolverine cosplayers everywhere will fight to the death and create shrines in your honor!
Wow! Great job Kiara 👏👏👏!!! Wolvie totally rules, so this mechanism and the explanation of it's construction are hugely appreciated and extremely thorough without getting too techy. Top job all round sister 👉👉👉. And when you swing back and pop them, it just gives immediate and complete attitude 😁😁😁. New Sub here mate based on this vid alone 👍👍👍. 😎
The Algorithm sent me here and I'm very glad it did. Those claws a friggin' amazing! As a ~52yo comic book nerd from the way back, I wish we had 3D printers and Arduinos in my day... Hell, the word "cosplay" didn't even exist when I was your age, we just called it "dress-up" or "wearing a costume" (takes a moment to look it up and per Wikipedia the term was coined in 1984, so my ignorance, I'd've sworn it didn't exist until the turn of the millenium... Huh. Anyway live and learn, eh wott?). Congrats on your mad science! I'm going to subscribe and see what else you create!
Very cool! I think tweaking the knuckle design a little to where the claws taper out and adding hinges for the claws could work because wolverine’s claws aren’t perfectly parallel. Also adding separate small batteries into the gauntlet could help with mobility and make sleeveless cosplays possible
Very cool kiera! I think this is an ever evolving transformation,,,,,,more advanced, robotics become, the smoother thiswillbecome. And I'm sure you will be on the "cutting edge " 😊
Very cool, I made a crude "flick in out" set of gloves like these with like a skintone for a party once, i They didn't have a motor though, this is a great build. Good work ❤
What if you put them on the other side of your arms and make them more wrist bands that transfer the claws from your arm to your palm, so they could actually come from your knuckles. Just a suggestion
Great Job! Your like Tony Stark, It looks like the arc reactor should be hooked up to your chest like ironman 1 with the wires hanging down during the demo lol. Looks fantastic! Keep it up!
Great video, and great design! I was not aware of those power packs, and I REALLY wish I knew about them while building our FCG robot. I will be using that power pack in the future, since it could power the voice/sound board with 12v, and 5V for servos, lights, and arduino.. Thanks for this helpful video!
Awesome video! One of the best Wolverine claw designs I've seen. What if: You were able to separate the hand piece from the forearm piece, design a connector that extends out from the forearm guard and connects to the hand piece with magnets. This way you can have have more mobility at the wrist whilst the claws are retracted. When you active the claws, the connector piece extends out a few milliseconds before and locks in to the hand piece with small magnets to ensure alignment. Once the claws a fully extended into the hand piece, the connector retracts and you have more mobility in the wrist again. (You may have to redesign the whole extension and retraction system for the claws though. Maybe some sort of grabbing mechanism in the forearm guard that will pull back the claws during the retraction phase).

@@KiarasWorkshop in the Brown and Tan Hulk scene in D&W, Hugh's claws are the flat straight knife blade style anyway.
Ngl, the fact that your claws actually make a "snikt" sound without having to add a soundboard is a pretty damn awesome coincidence.
she could do like something inside of it where metal grinds on metal? and maybe it will sound more like a "shink!"
@@bloodbound696i kinda think the sound bits they use for a sword/knife sliding out of its sheathe would be nice.

Just proof the original artist got the physics right, that if they were actually real, they would make that same noise
They have little rigges on them to make the noise

Have you considered just politely correcting their grammar?
you just might be the coolest person in the universe

Pro tip- your forearm is the same length as your foot. Makes measurements easy
How can you guarantee that?
@@JLikesStarWars test it. It’s a fact
@@theraVen27 I have long arms and my forearm is a stolid inch longer than my foot. Don’t put bs claims on this

Awesome work.
I think my inner child got healed a huge chunk by watching this video
this is one of the best video's i seen that actualy work wel and properly with sheatable claws ones everything is adjusted wel,pretty cool.
Man that’s so dope!!! I love how aesthetically pleasing you managed to keep it while still fitting perfectly sized claws!!!! Bravo 👏 ❤

9.9/10
What’s actually cool about this, this is literally how Wolverine used his claws in the old marvel comics, before it just became a super power.
yeah the claws used to be inside the glove rather than inside Wolverine

Those are freaking great! Only thing you mentioned about the springs you don’t wanna hear them, hot to one end to one side so doesn’t free slide

What if:
You were able to separate the hand piece from the forearm piece, design a connector that extends out from the forearm guard and connects to the hand piece with magnets.
This way you can have have more mobility at the wrist whilst the claws are retracted.
When you active the claws, the connector piece extends out a few milliseconds before and locks in to the hand piece with small magnets to ensure alignment. Once the claws a fully extended into the hand piece, the connector retracts and you have more mobility in the wrist again. (You may have to redesign the whole extension and retraction system for the claws though. Maybe some sort of grabbing mechanism in the forearm guard that will pull back the claws during the retraction phase).
Awesome! I am totally going to make these!
*Amazing work!* ⭐😃👍
that is super kool. you should design the claws to individually come out and to retract. so you can do the famous wolverine middle finger claw deal.
Really Cool! I just bought your pack and can't wait to start this project!
Absolutely incredible.
OK, I am subscribing to your channel because of this video alone. First video I ever saw on your channel.
Super cool! Maybe a small amount of white lithium grease in the shaft/coupler to help with jamming and noise? Might help!
