Tiki Bird Animatronic Part One - The Head

- Опубликовано: 3 июл 2024
- Tiki birds were the very first animatronics built, so to honor that I am building my own animatronic tiki bird. In this video, we look at how I started designing the bird and how I built the head.

nice tiki bird dude where is the pineapple swirly juice
Do you have files for the tiki bird on your patreon? I'd love add this to a bunch of other animatronics I've been working on
What do you want to do in the end?Build a whole Disneyland in your backyard?
Don't suppose you have the STL files for the project shared up anywhere?
Looks amazing already! Hope you will continue this project and post updates!
That's amazing! Great explanations! Never knew what a servo was for. Thanks!
Thank you!
Cool stuff my man
Hello Kleist, thank you for all the hard work putting that together. It is by far the most creative way I’ve seen controlling the head. Would you mind sharing or selling your files for the bird please?
I was wondering if I could get the STL 3-D files because I’m building my own and your files look amazing
Do you gave the STL files posted somewhere?
I would like to know what the foam cylinder is, would like to buy some to build a flexible neck for my animatronic, thank you
The foam is standard insulation that can be found at Home Depot.
Thank you. The cross shaped cable guides you used, do you have a download link for them? Definitely want to try making this 🙂
I have noticed that you not made any progress on taking this to the next step. I would like make the head as you done in the first video and then finish the rest of the bird as you outlined it the first video. So is it possible to get a hold of the all file to the head and body so I can take it the next level? Anything I create will be sheared with you. Let me some idea of my background like you I have always like the Tiki Room it is my favorite attraction. I have wanted t make my own Tiki Room Bird. I had the opportunity to have worked at Disneyland on the Tiki Room attraction got work on the up close and personal both the electronics and the mechanics, but until recently it has been possible to make all the parts without the use of a machine shop etc. 3D printing has now made it possible to do this at home. So let me help you out on this. I Will make youa free custom electronics to control it for you.
Question. How did they make the head without a 3D printer?
It was 3D printed
NO like walt disney
No walt disney how did he make the tiki birds
Very skilled machinists and engineers, I would assume.
The Enchanted Tiki Room opened in June 1963. So, materials and techniques available to make the head at that time would have been fiberglass and/or closed-cell foam insulation (isocyanate and/or polystyrene), cast resin, vacuformed plastic shaped over a hand-sculpted model, sheet metal (extremely doubtful but possible), or hand-carved wood. Regardless of the actual material used for the head, it would have been hand-shaped by a sculptor. The armatures of the birds were, and still are, made from metal. I've seen one without it's "back" at Garner Holt's shop. The servos are inside the bird and it is absolutely PACKED.
