Ah! Love it. This is excellent. You resisted the urge to make it give the middle finger gesture better than I would have been able to!

You make me have more empathy for product design. So many things can go wrong in trying to do one thing right.

The webbing Jamie used is from Dyneema climbing slings. They’re woven from UHMW Polyethylene. Super duper strong, lightweight, and almost totally static (very little stretch). Great for this application. Love spectra in here. That being said, it will slowly stretch out over time. It has settle stretch, as it’s not polyethylene, just notUHMW. Not a huge deal, but if this hand sits on the shelf for a while and you notice it’s lost some tension, that’s why. Super rad! Love the pneumatic cylinders, it looks so good.

Your enthusiasm and excitement are just the best

Dude makes a complex robotic hand in a 7min video.. this is old school KZfaq at its best 👌

The webbing that Mythbusters used looks like dyneema climbing slings. Check out the Mammut Contact Sling 8.0

Amazing project and slick story telling. This channel is so underrated

Man that content is top notch ! You cover such complexe topics yet making them understandable for all of us with great educational value. I don't understand why you don't have millions of subs ! Keep up the good work Tyler, the subs will come for sure ! Thanks for those great videos you make

This was really awesome!!

6:49 that Schwarzenegger impression is perfect to the point hahaha. Love it :)

Fantastic! And the amount is restraint exercised to not give us the finger was spectacular and refreshing.

You’ve already surpassed TheBackyardScientist’s videos at 100k… I honestly can’t wait to see the things you’re going to do with a higher budget.

Great video, well done. Super cool project. Wouldn't want to shake hands with it. Mahalo for sharing! 🙂🐒👍

If you rebuild the hand to grip soda cans it'd be the coolest can crusher in existence

Awesome build! You should make a mobile version. Use it as a vise and have it help you build stuff. lol

Dude I love your enthusiasm so much

I'm saving up for a better slow mo camera. You can help by supporting me on Patreon! patreon.com/tylerbellmakes

The rope used in myth busters is called mule tape and it is used for pulling wire through conduit. Very strong stuff and slick so it doesn’t catch on things

TB your a Absolute Mad Sciencetest or evil Genius, you pick. Wowsers awesome. I love myth busters. Can't wait to see what your mind comes up with next. Can't wait to see more videos. Keep up the great craftsmanship and hard work TB. Keep making. Hot Diggaty. God bless.

I read the title in reverse - a robot hand controlling your real hand, and while it seems fairly dangerous to develop test it would be a great video. You could link up the system to your current sensor and even have someone else control your hand!

I've been waiting for this incredible build, this came out great and I love your attention to detail! Thanks for walking us through it. Keep Making!

Nice job , on the hand Build 🤘

In case anyone is still wondering, it looks like the ribbon the Mythbusters used is called Mule Tape.

This is really cool! If you want to see a cool engineered prosthesis, I'd check out Ian Davis' channel. He lost his fingers in an accident and has made his own new hand (and he's still working on it too).

to make it so it can properly grip i would suggest making the fingers longer like make the length between each joint further or add a way for the knuckle/back of the hand to bend

Spectra is incredible stuff. I work as a rigger in the skydiving industry and we use it for parachute lines

Okay that is officially the coolest thing I've ever seen! I am curious as to what you do next!

Hey, do you guys remember december 2027 when Tyler Bell Projects released the very first full scale Gundam ? What a banger !

Bicycle brake cables are about 1.5mm in diameter. Braided steel or stainless, definitely strong enough for a hand if it's strong enough for brakes. Very cheap and available online or at local bike shop as well.

Dude, you should totally mount this to your arm as a power glove! Crushing walnuts, and splintering unfortunate pieces of wood! It's be awesome!

I feel like a bicycle brake cable would work fairly well. They are thin, flexible, and strong.

To account for the cable stretching, you could add a sustaining valve to each cylinder, like in old drum brakes, which would maintain a few psi, keeping the string tight. You would need stronger springs though. You could also use spring extend/air retract cylinders to neaten the cable routing. Extra levers could be used to increase power while reducing stroke, but you would need aircraft cable or kevlar webbing to prevent stretching. I've designed and built a few hands in my time - my profile pic is me wearing a LUKE arm, something I've been honored to help create for wounded warriors.

Love it! Thanks Tylor

You could add strong springs to the other side of the strings to prevent the fingers from hitting themselves too hard. It would act as a passive force limiter. Also, your grip problem is caused by the incomplete thumb/hand motion.

Love the mythbusters throw back. Nice build!

Can’t believe you aren’t a lot closer to a million subs! Well produced, interesting, and unique videos are your norm. Keep it up man!

I have been thinking about making a more compact version of something like this for awhile now so its super cool to see another person with a similar idea.

I love watching your videos! You always have such fun ideas

I love, love, love your videos. I have been waiting forever bc you are just so great of a maker. I just wish your videos were much longer.

High tensile webbing=mule tape. Electrician use it to pull large wires in conduit. Electrical supply store should have it.

Now mount that on an arm like the LEGO one that 'Brick Science' made

Tyler dude this project is super awesome, just insane really the type of content you put out and the quality, you're a top lad keep it up

This was definitely worth the wait!

Awesome video!

I love your videos!

Give yourself a robotic High Five, man. That thing is great. Tyler, Merry Christmas to you and your family. And Lord bless you all in the coming year.

Nice!! Great project!! 😁

Good job dude really cool!

Very cool!

damn.. them welds so beautifull

Very, very cool.

Very fun! Lots to learn to maker a stronger version 2.0!

That was a sick build Tyler! I was really hoping to get flicked off by both man and machine 😂

Lots of engineering went into that! Really cool. I'd love to see a follow up episode if you make any revisions! Would love to see it crush some stuff. Maybe a soda can would work well?

Imagine when someone asks you "Hey, can you give me a hand?" and you reply with, "Yeah, here you go!" and send 'em this video.

This is awesome!!!! They were using Tech 12 or Technora fibers. Spectra and technora are very similar but technora doesn’t have as much stretch.

so sick!

You do amazing work and deserve million views... Just make thumbnails and title on point

You should try the next step of making a super strength glove, have cords on the bottom of the palm.

Absolutely incredible as always bud!

I wonder what Tyler would think about Ian Davis’ prosthetic hand. Everyone should check it out, that guy’s hand is amazing.

I suppose it will save you from sitting on your hand till it's numb.

It looks like strands of Dyneema cording used in the Mythbusters video.. Dyneema has very little stretch and is as strong as steel.

Use paracable bro, highly durable, yet very flexible, and the last stress test done with paracable was able to withstand 305 lbs of pressure, thats more than enough.

Super fun! Would love to see a V2 with dual hand control :)

Can't wait for this guy to br famous

Dude you so smart

I wouldn't advise the "Wallowitz" robot hand application. 🤔

Thats cool my dude!

may i suggest flex sensors? they would allow for finer control and variability in the finger positions

Have the finger input be analog like a trigger to get control over how far the fingers move for finer control.

this means it’s possible to make a mimic from fnaf ruin dlc

Think i found my next binge youtuber

Finally I can flip someone off remotely

He is now the ruler of everything

The main reason it can’t grip very well is because it looks like how an alien would try to mimic a human hand to blend in as a 350lbs mechanized man-suit. It’s not perfect but could pass at a glance. Very cool though!

This was so cool hahah

Did you think of using 1.2 mm shifter cabel from a bicycle? Brake cable is 1.6 mm

Wonderful! Just a tad bit less power and some more friction on those fingers and you'll be fine!

...why am I even surprised anymore?

i dare you to build a full humanoid robot controlled by full body tracking vr.

5:03 it literally sounds like a sniper trying to shoot you across the map but he can't because of your ninja moves

Amsteel is what you need not spectra, people use it for hammock suspensions and amsteel is known to have significantly less stretch than spectra.

How about, Making a Better Robot Hand than the Mythbusters or Myth busters Robot Hand v2? 😊

This is handy

That webbing Jamie used might've been Amsteel/dynema.

i read the title as "robot hand controls my real hand" lol

Reminds me of the opening to the patlabor 2 movie

dope

A bit late to the party, but maybe some steel fishing line or even nylon fishing line. There is something called Nano Cord, its 0.75mm and 36lbs test. Even braided fishing line. Might be 2-3mm and is 200lbs test. I am almost 100% sure there is some b-role for you flipping the robot bird 😂

It's time to do it with Lego!

This hand looks almost exactly like the one from ash vs evil dead

nice

I was waiting for it to flip the bird

based on the second I saw it, I think what they used looks like a dyneema sling

You could use this for a vr hepatic glove

My hand is real! Also, nice.

Use dyneema for the string it has no stretch

It looks like Jamie was using hockey skate lace

Try a climbing store to get dynema webbing for super high strength low weight/thickness webbing
