Impregnate!

03 September 2010

Trying to keep a civil tone, but f**k it.

My computer crashed last night when working in windows. So now neither windows or OsX will boot. I've moved the harddrive to an external chassi, so I can use it as an external harddrive, and do all my work on the schools computers.

But still..

Impregnating piece of crap.

Sketchmodel

Well, it worked!

Atleast partially. The spool need better friction against the rope, and some bigger edges to prevent the rope from drifting off. I however, would like to claim the function-model a smashing success!

Took longer than it should, due to the workshops being filled with the freshmen and their introduction to the workshop-course, but thats ok. I'm not supposed to be here anyway, so who am I to complain?

I'm just a bit bummed that I didn't do it earlier. Better late than never, right?

And yeah, i had to butcher my old skateboard for one of it's wheels and lathe it down to a good diameter. I'm seriously considering using something similar for the final model. Love how the graphics are still there.

Playing a bit with Bunkspeed to see what it looks like.

Still missing leg and some vital mechanics.

Continuation.

28 August 2010

So presentationdates are still not set.. Need to synch this with every one whos going to attend, like supervisor, opponent, examiner, jury etcetc.. So now it looks like it could be later than September.

Still grinding the late nights in school, trying to get everything down in blueprints so I can start building, and just get it done. A lot of stuff needs to be solved, like how the legs move, attachments and so forth. If I do it properly, it could be possible to just pop in a motor and some electronics and then give it a go.. We'll see about that though.

Also, the proportions dont seem to be there yet. Have a full scale print of it on my wall, which looks nice and all, but with this 185cm virtual dummy, it doesnt look right.

The sitting surface has an average of aprox 40 CM above the ground, (tilted), which is pretty much what a normal chair is at. We'll see what i can do about it.

Some pictures with a real dummy.
