WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.560 A few months ago, I came across these boots and it's safe to say I became a little bit 00:00:04.560 --> 00:00:12.080 obsessed with them. Like, my boss was teasing me about it. They are called the Morso boots, Morso means fight, and they're by a company called GCDS. 00:00:12.080 --> 00:00:18.680 They've got fun! So we thought it would be a fun experiment to see if we could make some. 00:00:18.680 --> 00:00:22.920 You heard the plan from the fashion team, now it's my job to take the idea and turn 00:00:22.920 --> 00:00:29.200 it into a physical product. The first step is going to be getting a digital reference of our physical shoe. 00:00:29.200 --> 00:00:36.680 There's a couple ways to do that. The most basic would be just to take a picture from the side and trace out the heel. 00:00:36.680 --> 00:00:42.160 But we've got access to Neptune CT scanner now, so I'm going to stick a boot into the 00:00:42.160 --> 00:00:49.400 scanner and that's going to give us a 3D model of the shoe that I can then build off of. 00:00:49.400 --> 00:00:52.980 The process of CT scanning can actually be very variable. 00:00:52.980 --> 00:00:58.520 You can do the quickest scan in about 60 minutes, or you can go up to about 24 hours. 00:00:58.520 --> 00:01:04.800 It all depends on how much resolution you want and what the materials that you're scanning. 00:01:04.800 --> 00:01:09.840 Steels and stuff will take a lot longer, fabrics will be pretty much instant. 00:01:09.840 --> 00:01:14.120 Once we've got that reference model, I'll bring that into software. 00:01:14.120 --> 00:01:18.440 For most of the things that we do here, we actually use SOLIDWORKS, which is great because 00:01:18.440 --> 00:01:23.000 we've got version control and we can share the files between teams and keep on working 00:01:23.000 --> 00:01:27.480 off of each other. But for something like this where it's going to be a lot of surface modeling, and it's 00:01:27.480 --> 00:01:33.540 going to be not a final product and prototype, I'm going to use a software called Rhino 8. 00:01:33.540 --> 00:01:38.200 The process of modeling it will be pretty simple and very similar to what we were talking 00:01:38.200 --> 00:01:44.040 about before where if you take a picture from the side and trace the outline of the shoe, 00:01:44.040 --> 00:01:48.160 but because I've got a 3D model of it, or I will have a 3D model of it, it will be able 00:01:48.160 --> 00:01:51.680 to be even quicker and easier to make it mesh together. 00:01:51.680 --> 00:01:55.320 After we've got the 3D model, it's going to be sticking out on a 3D printer and for 00:01:55.320 --> 00:01:59.760 this video, we're going to try it on a few different things just to show them off. 00:01:59.760 --> 00:02:02.960 For this video, we've got actually a few different things we're going to print it on. 00:02:02.960 --> 00:02:10.280 We've got our Fuse SLS printer here and the associated not sandblaster cleaning station. 00:02:10.280 --> 00:02:16.240 And then we've also got our wall of FDM printers that I will probably be printing on a bamboo. 00:02:16.240 --> 00:02:20.480 And the last one we'll use is the Rapidea Metal 3D printer that we've got in the other 00:02:20.480 --> 00:02:23.480 building. What have you got? What have you got? 00:02:23.480 --> 00:02:30.680 A couple different options. Okay. We've got the FDM printed ones on the bamboo. 00:02:30.680 --> 00:02:36.800 We have the ones printed on the SLS on the Fuse. 00:02:36.800 --> 00:02:40.840 And then we kind of have metal ones. 00:02:40.840 --> 00:02:44.200 Okay, these are lethal. These are lethal, but I love them. 00:02:44.200 --> 00:02:47.400 And they kind of hold together. 00:02:47.400 --> 00:02:52.600 We ran out of welding gas and the timeline of this video means we don't have any gas. 00:02:52.600 --> 00:02:56.160 And they could do some serious damage, which I'm not opposed to, but I'm not sure it's 00:02:56.160 --> 00:02:59.760 right for this boot. No. Yeah. 00:02:59.760 --> 00:03:04.640 What's the difference between these two? Mostly the process. 00:03:04.640 --> 00:03:09.000 This one is basically made out of a bunch of powder that a laser goes by and fuses it 00:03:09.000 --> 00:03:14.920 together. And then this one is kind of like a hot glue gun where it just extrudes material and builds 00:03:14.920 --> 00:03:17.920 it up. Okay. And tell me about the trees. 00:03:17.920 --> 00:03:22.520 Yeah. So this one, because it's a bunch of powder and it goes up layer by layer, you don't 00:03:22.520 --> 00:03:33.880 need any support. And it actually comes out like this or there's still rough and it's called armor, but you 00:03:33.880 --> 00:03:37.040 have to sandblast it off. Oh yeah. I can see that. 00:03:37.040 --> 00:03:40.800 And once you sandblast it off, then it looks like this. 00:03:40.800 --> 00:03:46.680 These, because it's extruding up from the bottom, you need something to support the top 00:03:46.680 --> 00:03:53.380 or else it would just kind of drip and fall over. So that's what these tree supports are and you can pop them off. 00:03:53.380 --> 00:03:57.180 And do you have to design those or is that, does that happen? Nope. 00:03:57.180 --> 00:04:01.020 The slicer just automatically does it, but then you can just pop them off. Oh that looks like fun. 00:04:01.020 --> 00:04:04.020 Can I, can I do something? Yep. 00:04:04.020 --> 00:04:08.060 Yep. It's also easy to pop the teeth off in this one. Am I really weak? 00:04:08.060 --> 00:04:15.340 Yeah. And once they actually start going, it's actually not bad, but it's getting it detached from 00:04:15.340 --> 00:04:25.660 the top that's, here I loosened it for you. 00:04:25.660 --> 00:04:29.340 And then this is one where it has none of the support on. 00:04:29.340 --> 00:04:33.300 I think we're going to have to chrome like paint one of these. 00:04:33.300 --> 00:04:37.060 Which one do you think is going to take the paint better? This one's probably going to be the nicest. 00:04:37.060 --> 00:04:40.300 The layer lines are smaller and it's probably easier. 00:04:40.300 --> 00:04:43.980 We also have, this is a dyed of the same print. 00:04:43.980 --> 00:04:49.740 So this is how it comes out of the printer initially. And then this is just with some fabric dye, RIT. 00:04:49.740 --> 00:04:54.460 Really? Yep. And then it makes it black. 00:04:54.460 --> 00:04:57.460 Or blacker. Oh, cool. Yeah. 00:04:57.460 --> 00:05:00.740 Okay. Well, so we can use, we'll paint one of these then. 00:05:00.740 --> 00:05:06.740 Yes. And then actually, interesting thing with the fuse prints. 00:05:06.740 --> 00:05:13.300 So this is printed off, not dyed or anything. But then if you actually cut into it, it is black, like the plastic's black. 00:05:13.300 --> 00:05:17.900 It's just that the surface texture makes it look gray. What are we going to do with all of these though? 00:05:17.900 --> 00:05:22.580 I feel like we need to do a separate project with all of these. I don't know. 00:05:22.580 --> 00:05:26.620 I don't think we had any plan. Oh, look, I can do. 00:05:26.620 --> 00:05:29.620 I just was doing it the wrong way. There you go. 00:05:29.620 --> 00:05:38.740 Other thing with the metal one, since we have it, the, so these ones were all printed together 00:05:38.740 --> 00:05:44.020 With the process that the metal ones are printed, when it goes into the sintering furnace, 00:05:44.020 --> 00:05:48.720 it has the consistency of warm plasticine. 00:05:48.720 --> 00:05:54.660 So if you printed it like this, it would droop down. 00:05:54.660 --> 00:06:01.260 And the fun thing with printing metal is the support is also metal. 00:06:01.260 --> 00:06:05.900 So if you do support like this inside the teeth, it's going to be really fun to take 00:06:05.900 --> 00:06:10.340 out. It's possible, but you have to be more clever about it. 00:06:10.340 --> 00:06:14.140 I'm probably stronger than me. You need an angle grinder. 00:06:14.140 --> 00:06:17.820 So, but yeah, so that's why they're printed like this. 00:06:17.820 --> 00:06:24.020 And we would have welded them together, but. Are these solid or are these hollow? 00:06:24.020 --> 00:06:29.860 Same as with these ones, they've got, these ones have 25% infill, so they're mostly hollow. 00:06:29.860 --> 00:06:33.380 So they're lighter than they should be. They're still a good weight though. 00:06:33.380 --> 00:06:36.820 They're still very aggressive. 00:06:36.820 --> 00:06:40.540 So it was painting time? I think it's painting time. 00:06:40.540 --> 00:06:45.900 We'll paint these ones, which means this one has to be sandblasted, which I guess we can 00:06:45.900 --> 00:06:51.020 get B roll for that. You can see part of the armor here that's been sandblasted off, and then this hasn't 00:06:51.020 --> 00:06:56.460 been sandblasted. The purpose of that, we think is kind of to do with heat dissipation. 00:06:56.460 --> 00:07:01.660 We're not 100% sure they haven't told us, but yeah, you get kind of a crust on the outside 00:07:01.660 --> 00:07:05.980 of the print, and it just sandblasts off. These are actually also fairly. 00:07:05.980 --> 00:07:15.100 They're all sharp. I've stabbed myself a few times. I mean, violence wasn't necessarily, I mean, it wasn't in the brief, but it's definitely 00:07:15.100 --> 00:07:22.020 a little extra. 00:07:22.020 --> 00:07:28.820 It looks kind of sick with that little like, with a little bit of like a gradation, yeah. 00:07:28.820 --> 00:07:32.740 That paint actually looks like it's not bad. It's actually really good. 00:07:32.740 --> 00:07:36.500 I think it looks, I think let's leave it like that for a moment and then see. 00:07:36.500 --> 00:07:41.940 Do another layer after. Yeah. I was part of the team that spray painted the wings for a very impressive movie called 00:07:41.940 --> 00:07:45.380 Tooth Fairy with Dwayne the Rock Johnson. Are you serious? 00:07:45.380 --> 00:07:48.380 Yes. Would I lie to you? No. 00:07:48.380 --> 00:07:51.380 That's sick. Yeah, serious. Many years ago. 00:07:51.380 --> 00:07:54.380 Yeah. I think working in a shoe factory in Transylvania was pretty cool too. 00:07:54.380 --> 00:07:57.380 Yeah. I don't know. It got me on the spot. 00:07:57.380 --> 00:08:01.220 But I think, like I just started to clear what. 00:08:01.220 --> 00:08:04.300 Six months ago, seven months ago. I think I'm going to get a lot more of those. 00:08:04.300 --> 00:08:07.860 I think it's longer than six months. You tired of me already? Yeah. 00:08:07.860 --> 00:08:12.060 I didn't think these would come out in real school, but it's like already off. 00:08:12.060 --> 00:08:15.700 It's pure skills, man, pure skills. I think that's pretty good. 00:08:15.700 --> 00:08:18.700 I think those. They look good to me. 00:08:18.700 --> 00:08:28.900 Yeah. I'm excited. Do you think they'll actually, can I stand in them? 00:08:28.900 --> 00:08:33.020 Do you think I'll actually, like, if I stand in my tippy toes? 00:08:33.020 --> 00:08:37.700 I would stand in, like, 50 percent? I wouldn't trust your whole weight on them. 00:08:37.700 --> 00:08:40.980 I just, I'll just walk in my tippy toes. Yeah. 00:08:40.980 --> 00:08:43.980 That should be fine. I'm used to these kind of high boots. It's all good. 00:08:43.980 --> 00:08:48.620 Off camera, I cut this boot a few days ago just to test fit the prints and stuff. 00:08:48.620 --> 00:08:52.860 And now we're just going to band saw this heel off, sit down and get it ready to glue 00:08:52.860 --> 00:08:56.780 the heel on. There we go. Now we just have to sand it down. 00:08:56.780 --> 00:09:01.660 The band saw blade has to be replaced. What do you want to stick them with? 00:09:01.660 --> 00:09:06.140 Normally use something like epoxy or something for this, but we're just going to use some 00:09:06.140 --> 00:09:10.580 hot glue because that's what this project is like. 00:09:10.580 --> 00:09:13.980 So which one? They're not quite symmetrical, right? 00:09:13.980 --> 00:09:17.180 No, there's a left and a right. 00:09:17.180 --> 00:09:21.660 And those will go there. This is all my fine boots dreams come true. 00:09:21.660 --> 00:09:24.340 And this is the before heel. Yeah. 00:09:24.780 --> 00:09:28.380 One of the other options that we had, if we didn't want to paint them, is to do something 00:09:28.380 --> 00:09:32.740 like electroplating. Now, we didn't realize that we actually had an electroplating kit. 00:09:32.740 --> 00:09:37.580 And in a very simplistic way, it's basically just a transfer of metal ions via a solution 00:09:37.580 --> 00:09:44.660 from a positive electrode to a negative one. So if we ever want to do something further, let us know in the comments and we can do 00:09:44.660 --> 00:09:51.820 something like electroplating. We even have something like anyone in whoever taken a beginner, a chemistry level class will 00:09:51.820 --> 00:09:57.300 know copper to sulfate pentahydrates. So I mean, the possibilities are in this. 00:09:57.300 --> 00:10:02.340 One of the things I did while designing this was I gave a relief along the edge to try 00:10:02.340 --> 00:10:06.220 and hide the seam better. 00:10:06.220 --> 00:10:10.180 What we're going to do is we're just going to run some glue here and call it a day. 00:10:10.180 --> 00:10:15.180 This mini hot glue gun isn't the best either, but you can just put hot glue on it with a 00:10:15.180 --> 00:10:19.140 torch instead of using the hot glue gun. 00:10:19.140 --> 00:10:23.820 So on the metal ones, that would work well. Just put a bunch of glue, hit it with a torch, heat it up. 00:10:23.820 --> 00:10:27.780 I'm so excited about these, look at them. 00:10:27.780 --> 00:10:31.540 So I mean, they actually feel pretty sturdy. 00:10:31.540 --> 00:10:36.820 They, I mean, for essentially a prototype, they are, they're amazing. 00:10:36.820 --> 00:10:40.320 Yeah, they're sick. They're so sick. This is super short. 00:10:40.320 --> 00:10:45.300 I'm really curious to see how they, how they are when you actually wear them. 00:10:45.300 --> 00:10:49.100 Lisa, you want to give them a spin? Oh yeah. Those are sick. 00:10:49.100 --> 00:10:52.100 They look so good. They look so good. Yeah. 00:10:52.100 --> 00:10:55.100 I mean, I might not wear them the rest of the day. Yeah. Let me see if I can put any. 00:10:55.100 --> 00:10:58.100 Yeah, no, there's a definite bend. Yeah, they flex. Yeah. 00:10:58.100 --> 00:11:02.100 Well, we, I mean, we knew that was going to happen. But like imagine you were just prototyping these like, yeah, that'd be amazing. 00:11:02.100 --> 00:11:05.100 Oh yeah. Can we do more of this? I want to do more of this. 00:11:05.100 --> 00:11:08.100 Oh. Oh. Yeah. 00:11:08.100 --> 00:11:11.100 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. 00:11:11.100 --> 00:11:14.100 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. 00:11:14.100 --> 00:11:17.100 Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. 00:11:18.100 --> 00:11:24.100 Woo. So safe to say they lived up to your expectations. 00:11:24.100 --> 00:11:27.100 Yeah. I'm so excited about this. 00:11:27.100 --> 00:11:31.100 I'm not actually going to hear the end of this from Nick. 00:11:31.100 --> 00:11:35.100 Yes. He's going to tease me so bad, but I don't care. 00:11:35.100 --> 00:11:38.100 I know. You have your boots. We got our boots. 00:11:38.100 --> 00:11:44.100 We would really love to do some more projects like this. So if you're interested, leave a comment and we'll see what we can do. 00:11:44.100 --> 00:11:50.100 Leave a like. Like it up. I mean, it'd be so cool to do a whole bunch of different fashion content. 00:11:50.100 --> 00:11:53.100 Kind of like blending what we have together with some more stuff. 00:11:53.100 --> 00:11:59.100 So hope you like this as much as we did and look at our crazy boots.
