Prepping to build a four way tentacle mechanism. to make a four way tentacle mechanism without using cnc machining, landon explains how you can create a simple version using sliced aluminum. you’ll slice a bar of aluminum multiple times to make a five vertebrae tentacle to start with. (landon draws a mockup of the process he'll use to create. Subscribe on : bit.ly zp70t4 and ring the bell!full story here: bit.ly cabmechfcytin this mini lesson, you’ll learn the various types o.
Drilling the set screw holes in the vertebrae. drilling set screw holes in the vertebrae with a drill press. tapping the set screw side holes. threading the vertebrae onto the speedometer cable "spine". prepping the cable housings. fitting the housing with shaft collars. threading the cable through the mechanism. October 21, 2016. welcome back to the final chapter in our journey exploring two stage tentacle mechanisms. this is where we arm you with the tools and techniques to get one of these cretins alive. In a tentacle mechanism, it is important that the discs do not rotate on the central flexible core. if the parts do rotate the tentacle will become less controllable. the best way to eliminate the rotation is to make all the discs out of aluminum so that each individual disc can be secured on to the central shaft with a set screw. Tentacle mockup. to get some intuition of the cable drive, let’s build up a crude tentacle consisting of two plates, and a flexible core. here’s a diagram of our pre natal tentacle below: by.

Tentacle mockup. to get some intuition of the cable drive, let’s build up a crude tentacle consisting of two plates, and a flexible core. here’s a diagram of our pre natal tentacle below: by. In a tentacle, the discs are strung upon the central shaft like beads on a string. for the optimal functioning of the tentacle, it is important that the discs not spin upon the central shaft. set screws and shaft collars are good methods of securing the disc to the shaft. not all the discs need to be secured, but the longer the tentacle mech. Two stage tentacle mechanisms part ii: the cable controller. a few weeks back, we got a taste for two stage tentacle mechanisms. it’s a look at how to make a seemily complicated mechanism a lot.
