DAOTF (extending and retracting) claws - DONE!

[Harmonic_Distortion]

I'm happy to announce that after Chaz and I have worked on these puppies for over 2 years...Chaz has them 95% done...and I have them in my possession to play with!

As for the mechanism, the mysterious version of the description is: pneumatics + solenoids + motorcycle battery + fanny pack.

Yes, I'm wearing a fanny pack.There's a lot more that's going to have to happen even to get them under claws, since there's a 1.65" post at the knuckles that will need some larger hands/gloves made to make it look semi-seamless. This is the costume for now.

Enjoy. Hugh Jackman eat your heart out.

excuse my ignorance, but what does DAOTF stand for?

 

[Harmonic_Distortion]

DA-OTF : Double-Action Out-The-Front. A automatic knife where the blade opens and closes by spring activation. Automatic both ways.
