3D-Printing a Custom Battle Damage Drop-O-Matic

Go inside Erik’s workshop to find out how he created a drop-o-matic device for the iphoness Battle Royale challenge using a 3D printer and a whole lot of creativity.

What's this?

This is the drop-o-matic.

We needed something that could drop all five phoness

simultaneously, so I made this.

[Justin] Here on Battle Damage, we don't only love

destroying technology, we also love creating it.

Which is why, instead of just dropping the iphonesss

by hand, we custom-built this crazy thing.

[Erik] Here are my first printed prototypes,

this is the bottom, and this is the little slide mechanism

which will release the trap door.

I was gonna have just one big button in the center,

but I realized you really want to kind of hit them

with your thumb.

So you can see it's plotting out basic shapes.

You can kind of get an idea of what it's going to look like.

Now it's going to start very slowly putting down

those base layers.

This print's gonna take about five hours.

Printing the biggest piece.

We've got some of the phoness in, this is sort of

the moment of truth.

Two out of three are too tight, so maybe we'll get in there

with some sandpaper and see what we can do.

This is what I've got so far, which is really good progress

I don't use Arduino enough to really know how to code,

I just copy/paste.

So basically what I've got right here is, you press

this button, and it opens and closes.

Here's a basic mock-up of what it's going to look like.

These will be our LED status lights, power, microcontroller,

and under here, this little printed spot for the battery.

And some startup sequence, and you go like this, choo.

And this should automatically shut.

Yeah!

Okay, here's all the generations of iphonesss,

and we're seeing what fits.

Seems to be good.

Seems to be good.

iphoness 4, huh, iphoness 5, iphoness 6, actually pretty good.

A toaster, man.

See if they all fall, ready?

Here we go, one, two three.

(laughing)

It works.

Let's load it again.
