The Mechanical Mind episodes

  • Ep. 3 Robotic Arms

    Welcome back to Mechanical Mind! In this episode, Jacob and Cohen dive into one of their latest engineering projects — building their own robot arms.


    From designing the mechanical parts and choosing motors to figuring out the electronics and programming, they break down what goes into building a robot arm from the ground up. They talk about their different designs, the parts they're using, and some of the things they've learned along the way.


    Of course, not everything has gone according to plan. They talk about broken parts, bad measurements, wiring problems, software issues, and some of the mistakes that come with trying to build something from scratch.


    They also look at where they want to take their robots in the future, including computer vision, inverse kinematics, AI, voice commands, and autonomous movement.


    Then they switch things up with some robotics-themed "Would You Rather" questions and a rapid-fire round.


    Whether you're into robotics, engineering, 3D printing, or just want to hear two engineering students try to build a robot without breaking everything, there's something for you in this episode.

  • Ep. 2 3D Printing Overview

    Welcome back to Mechanical Mind! In this episode, Jacob and Cohen dive deeper into the world of 3D printing and talk about what we've been working on, what we've learned, and some of the interesting things happening in the 3D-printing world.


    From the technology behind 3D printing to the projects and ideas we're experimenting with, we talk about why 3D printing has become such a huge part of engineering, making, and creating.


    Then we switch things up with some hot takes and a round of "Would You Rather," leading to some pretty interesting debates, questionable opinions, and plenty of laughs.


    Whether you're into engineering, 3D printing, making things, or just want to hear two engineering students argue over some random hot takes, there's something for you in this episode.

  • Ep. 1 Introduction

    Welcome to Mechanical Mind! In our first episode, Jacob and Cohen introduce themselves and talk about what inspired them to start the podcast. As engineering students and hands-on makers, they dive into their experiences with 3D printing, CAD, engineering projects, and the rapidly changing world of engineering technology.


    From designing and building projects ourselves to discussing how 3D printing is changing the way engineers and hobbyists create, this episode sets the stage for what Mechanical Mind is all about.


    We'll be talking about engineering, 3D printing, CAD, design, new technology, projects, and the things we're actually building and experimenting with.


    Whether you're an engineering student, a maker, a 3D-printing addict, or just interested in how things are designed and built, welcome to Mechanical Mind.
