@@emiruu2919 They pay those who leave money... Philanthropy is not very well regarded by companies if said "philanthropy" does not leave a profit... I just came from an Instagram post about a prosthetic arm that is only worth 8k compared to other brands. Designed by an alleged 26-year-old girl who is said by many to be a philanthropist for the idea of ​​her... I started a conversation with someone who had the same question as me. Why cost 8K when for sure in production cost it wouldn't even cost $300? People only know how to see the differences. What costs 8K when the competition costs 100K?... Everything shines when you see it like this. But, those same ones that sell it for 100K with better materials, only spend a fraction in production, is more a business of benefit than of aid. I see the same thing about the "26-year-old girl" who sells it at 8K when she surely uses 3D printing materials and micros like those of Arduino. But people only see philanthropy in numbers, not in acts... For me Will will always be one of the true philanthropists in this area. You invested time and effort in this project and it was not just any project. I like its mechanical approach and search for flexibility, strength and robustness more than many other models. I Know Some Engineering Being an Industrial Designer and I can say that Will rivaled the greats in quality and ingenuity, the only difference being that his purpose was really philanthropic. Without him saying it. But ask me about any of these "new geniuses of science" that you see on the internet calling themselves philanthropists when you see that it is more a profit business than a willingness to help. Nothing is for free in this world. The first ones who don't like the concept of free are companies. Where there is no profit, there is no business. That's why not all of them help selflessly to people like Will. Especially the users. Companies are free to choose who to help or not and have their objectives to survive. But UKposts users find it more interesting to see a fool to play his favorite video game while talking shit about other players, than to give a free like to projects like this, and with that help keep them alive. Or better donate! Although Will never asked for money. He solved his needs in his own way, finding work and focusing on surviving. Another indication of his philanthropy. A true philanthropist is very stubborn in these ways. Although they accept money from others, their ways are very evident not to depend on it and not to give much hype to donations in the videos. Just let your audience flow with your decisions... Some UKpostsrs do it and as far as I can see, you can see their commitment and seriousness with the issue of aid. But they are not all and it is easy to pretend, that is why I cannot assure nothing from nobody. What is sure is that when you are so stubborn not to ask and assume responsibilities on your own and abandon something like this, it says more about philanthropy than those who ask day and night and he becomes the victim of the UKposts monetary system... True philanthropists live in the shadows, only discovered by those who seek them. Not the other way around.

to be fair youtube algo doesnt boost content based off how interesting it is, but based off how many open mouth meme thumbnails are used and creators are heavily punished for not posting more than 2ce a day

Hey! You are a genius and a real hero. I am lucky not to need a prosthetic, but your work matters way more than fancy-pants hip entrepreneurs that show up on media interviews with projects that never hit the market for people that need them. DIY and Open Source is the power of the people.

The two DIY prosthetic legends have met! Subbed to both of yall, great job to you both!

If you can code a robot's ROS then place my debug code on the 1st Line of code in the system then run it through like any other line of code: . . . . .. . . .. . .. Force = [F=m(2385)]; . . . .. . . . . . You can also run this on any line in the system's language. It runs the SOST properly.

Good to see you two interact.

Well, well, well. 2 geniuses at prosthetics meet, and one is a Cyborg. Xd.

Agreed. If he's nervous about the shipping etc.. I think Alec Steele just had a sponsor that that may help.

How much do you think people would be willing to pay for a part kit? or the entire hand kit? (assembled or kit) ukposts.info

would buy

@@kikelabmor how much would you be willing to pay? that is the question.

@@DARARobot my guess is he could sell a kit for $75 - $100 USD. Considering it's not complete. He'd have to invest in at leaset one more printer and the resin/time/effort/components. By my guess since he hasn't broken 100K subs he'd only sell near 100 kits. Not sure it's worth it. That's why I think getting more people to see his channel is more important.

I'm sure Colin Furze would be interested in this, too, but he'd probably just attach a flamethrower to it, lmao.

My thoughts too. Godlike CAD work all to be betrayed by iffy printing

@@Pyrohawk Never heard about the pareto principle? This guy develops something in his FREE time. It's about the mechanical principle, NOT about ultra cool looking within the first development step. @Will: keep going man! It's all about getting results!

@@onairtotheworld bad surface quality will impact his mechanical interfaces. From experience. Its important he knows he can improve his print quality. I'm not throwing any stones at his design work, which is amazing.

also it's PETG, not PTFE...

Its not even FDM, it a SLA print man

Yeah I was following this when it was being updated. forgot about it and came back to see nothing has happened since :/

@@HavokBWR it happens, especially with covid, we can just hope that hes doing well and might be able to find the time in the future to return
