This project was so hard it almost broke me.

    Big thanks to everyone who supports me on Patreon! That support allows me to spend such insane amounts of time on projects like this. If you’re interested in support these projects, check out patreon.com/stuffmadehere

    "If at first you don't succeed, reduce your expectations until you're a success" what a line
  • Damn I cannot even imagine how stressful it must be to make these projects. Devoting months to these insane projects that could very easily end up failing, all to entertain strangers on the internet. I have mad respect for that.
  • @kvom01
    Retired programmer here. I would have debugged the process with a much smaller puzzle first, but you got there in the end. Kudos.
  • @skelliam
    I don't know if you'll see this comment in a sea of 12k comments, but I really really really REALLY appreciate how you showcase your successes AFTER a series of failures. Code bugs are a part of the process, and I so appreciate your willingness to share those. There are many other channels that filter out the failures. Awesome job. 🙏

    You know when Stuff Made Here says that he has tried to solve something for weeks, he has literally spent weeks trying to solve it
  • I imagine that this would be an absolute hit at an art establishment or children's museum. It would get many people into Engineering.
  • @syedabdullah8460
    As a Mechanical Design Engineer, my mind just went bullocks looking at how Software and Design Engineering has Integrated and how you solved the problem sequentially, Mechanically I suppose you can do way more precise movements, but what you have done has just peaked the whole project!! Love to see such videos, I get inspired to learn and get to enjoy Engineering!!
  • @ScottStronghill
    Looking forward to part 3, where the expectations gnaw away at your soul until you have no choice but to revisit this project until it's fully automated.
  • @TimeBucks
    That assembly time lapse was so satisfying
  • @NamedNitrogen
    “If at first you don’t succeed, reduce your expectations until you are a success” That is the best philosophical phrase I’ve heard. Ever.
  • @TheMrGunmann
    As a programmer I can totally feel you saying: "It is an awesome job", while feeling some resignation and just being happy to not touch the code again :D
  • IMPORTANT TIP: Having spent a decade making laser cut jigsaws I have learned that if you cut it UPSIDE DOWN the slight bevel caused by the tapering of the beam focus works with you to iron out slight misalignments when assembling it. Wonderful, wonderful work and a joy to watch.
  • “It is, without a doubt, THE hardest project that I’ve done.” I love how this is how he feels after every project. Shane rules.
  • @JoshuaMatthias
    Watching these videos brings to light just how complex, amazing and precise our own bodies are. It also highlights how much success there is in "failure". To me the Success line is more about recognizing your achievements over dwelling on what still needs to be perfected. Love the humorous ending, months of work and she immediately recognizes 2 missing pieces. It also illustrates that the biggest (and least appreciated) part of a successful project is the R&D.
  • @TommyRaines
    Brief version of this fascinating story: human beings may be slow, but they're amazing
  • @BlackDreaded
    what I love about Shane is that he also shows the fails - engineering is hard and a lot of trial and error - but succeeding like in this video feels great
  • @yawcty6478
    I like how the third monitor says, “I’m slowly going totally insane” and then shows top vacation destinations with no robots
  • @jackhsrper
    I was blown away impressed at the problem solving skill to even figure out how to effectively quantify each point on the edges! You’re awesome bro! You’re living the dream and I’m happy to just watch!
