When I was offered the opportunity to beta test an upcoming robotic arm from Tormach, I knew exactly what I wanted to do with it. CNC chainsaws baybeeeeee. Aside from being fundamentally awesome, it is a very interesting software problem. Since I didn't have to build the arm I was able to focus the project and the video on the software challenges of making something like this work. Thank goodness I didn't have to build the arm because the software almost killed me. I can imagine all kinds of next steps for this creation like machining textures with the chainsaw or cutting topiaries. I hope you like it!

There is a relatively easy way how to calculate the gradient ascent, even if you have multiple maximum points. Start scanning a linear line, let's say along the length of the object starting near the edge, and record the heights. repeat that with a rough distance, let's say 6-7 mm scanning another line parallel to the first one and recording the heights again. Do it until the object is roughly scanned, which should be a couple of lines, and should happen quickly. Repeat the same on the perpendicular direction along the width of the object, again a couple of parallel lines. Once finished, you have obtained a rough heights matrix. Let's assume that you've discovered that this height matrix includes 3 maxima (maximum points) All you have to do now is get the height sensor to do the standard algorithm of gradient ascent you used before and start with the nearest point next to each maxima and repeat that 3 times (once for each maxima). Once done, you compare the 3 heights you've got and take the highest one, which is your point. In order to avoid mistakes, when deciding on how many maximum points the algorithm should check after the initial scan, just make a condition that the difference between maximum heights should be higher or equal to the distance between the linear lines you measured initially. That way, you reduce the to-be-measured points into minimum number possible. Good Luck Lemogan

A chainsaw file and oil go a long way! Depending on how hard the wood is (it appears to be pine, so probably not too hard), you'll need to sharpen the teeth fairly frequently. Speaking of oil, was the feed blocked?

The reason your chainsaw was burning the wood is a combination of the saw being dull and also that the standard chain is optimized for cross cuts with a tiny cut depth. It is not optimized for ripping. You could purchase a ripping chain or you can buy a cheap chainsaw sharpening tool and do it yourself. I highly recommend buying the tools and doing it yourself. You should also touch up the chain every few hours of sawing. The more often you do it, the less time it takes to get the chain perfect so sharpening the chain more often actually saves time. Also you were partially correct about the chain's depth gauge slowing the cut down. Part of sharpening is getting the depth gauge teeth the right height. Too high (as they typically come when new) and you'll need to push the chain into the wood while cutting and the teeth will take small cuts (even if sharp). Height gauges you adjust too low make the saw pull itself into the wood aggressively and you'll constantly be dealing with the saw being underpowered for the cut the blade wants to naturally make (even if super sharp). Basically (with a sharp chain) you want to shorten the height gauges so the saw naturally cuts at a moderately aggressive rate without you having to push the saw into the wood nor pull it away. You definitely need to shorten them quite a bit from the original height. Once you understand the height gauges you'll want to keep the saw sharp using a file and chainsaw sharpening guide tool regularly. Roughly once every 10 or so sharpenings you'll need it to slightly shorten the height gauges again. If you want to make the chain cut more efficiently (in addition to the shorter height gauges and sharpening) you'll want to reduce the tooth angle on every second pair of teeth. A typical cross cut chain has 35° (or 30°) teeth. This helps to clear the wood out of the way so it doesn't get cut again. When ripping, this angle reduces the efficiency and clearing isn't as important. A 10° angle will cut noticeably faster (with a slightly shorter gauge tooth as well) but you still want some (often ~50% of the teeth, depending on the wood type) of the teeth at 30 or 35° to help clear the chips. Do some googling and video watching about sharpening chainsaws, sharpen your chain and in no time you'll have the saw zipping through the wood like butter. The biggest improvement is sharp cutting teeth and shorter gauge teeth. The 10° angle is like an extra 10% to 20% bonus in ripping rate and is optional.

What do you think chain oil is for, without lubrication is not going to cut it.
Rolly MarthallerHace 11 horas
Filing down the raker teeth on the chain slightly will allow you to use the tip of the saw to cut. Because it's not a human operator, with numerous limbs in the danger area, slight kickback shouldn't be a problem. Just be careful to limit plunge speed of the blade to not be overly aggressive.

Why don't you do something worthwhile with your time, equipment and clearly huge disposable income? There are millions of starving people around the world you could help with your talents and engineering ability. Making ESdos videos contributes pretty much zero to humanity and just burns up energy in servers around the world. Sorry but all this effort to create a (bad) facsimile of a dog out of foam sheets is an insult to the world. I know there are worse offenders but do you really need to join them for the sake of 2.55 million subscribers? Edit; yes, I'm disappointed with myself for using my computer (and the electrical power) to watch this whilst locked down. Pathetic.

Speaking as an artist , who has spent the time and made the sacrifices to learn a real skill. By hand and by ones own ability. Every time one of you types comes up with a device to automate art. Is a loss to something special in the world. .. the more that is done for you , the less you can do for yourself. Cheap art made by machines, has no soul , no love . Frankly speaking, I'm not impressed . Keep on this track , down the road people like you will be helpless unless you have machines to do the work for you. "And dont think they will always be around" No matter that you have the technical skill to create this device, art should be left to artists , your way buys into capitalism. This is disgusting. You could do better for the world with your abilities, to create something that truly can help the world . This is just theft from people who are becoming more rare in such an over automated ready made world . . You could really do better with what you can do. This isn't helping anyone but yourself. Greedy .

Man you used the wrong saw… you can do a better job with an angle grinder with a chainsaw blade, you might not be able to go as deep but would help in completing the look plus I think your saw speed might be to slow also with the skate board motor, there's a circular saw blade called Prazi which might be better. Blade speed plays a lot in how much you cut, and it looked like you saw blade was to loose.

I wonder if your saw chain couldn't either be modified to cut at the tip or a chain couldn't be bought designed to do just that? I could ask my logger neighbor with 35 years of dealing with saws, chains and bars. He's my go to guy to tune up my Poulan and put a quicker cutting edge on even a new chain. Perhaps checking with one of the guys that do the chainsaw carving. I've seen them carving and know they use the tip to cut... a lot. :)

Michelle LewisHace 22 horas
you're going about it all wrong......chainsaws require sensitivity of touch and intimate understanding of how the tool cuts, so that which moves the tool needs to have that knowledge and sensory feedback from the cut. You also have to account for the variability of the material properties which is not uniform, and the changing properties of the tool as the teeth sharpness reduces. It really is not suited to cnc programs.
