Thread: shiatsu massager prop, test run #1

Tweet

This thing is outta control gotta move a few things around if I plan on keeping this from lasting 5 min any suggestions?

It won't play. Says the video is private.

Yep.. Private Video.. Can't watch it

Sorry, video should work now, first video posted on Youtube, newbie.....lol

Holy crap! LOL! You better have the ambulance on call - that thing is dangerous! It'd definitely keep the birds out of your yard.

I'm interested in hearing a solution though. Just getting in to playing with motors, so I might run into the same problem down the road. (Makes me glad I started with reindeer motors.)

Looks promising. Maybe switch it to decaf? (Welcome to the forums!)

Hi 13thour,

The shiatsu massager I use has a small dial underneath that controls the speed . Also,it looks like you have the straps too loose , if you shorten those it should give you more control of the motion. I had to adjust the straps many times until I got close to the movement I wanted .

Hope that helps.

put an axe on that thing and you could hack up some stuff...

I agree with undead... i found a speed dial on the 3 I have built underneath the motor.. Great prop start I do like it!!

If you shorten the PVC rod that the head is mounted on it wouldn't move quite as violently.
Unless that's what you want.......

Now there's a zombie that REALLY wants out!
It looks good, but I think I'd tone it down a bit before it knocks out a ToT or tears itself apart.

The more weight you put on it, the less movement there will be. By the time I added a head and a suit coat to mine, the movement was MUCH lower. So as you work on yours, just try adding some arms or clothes, or anything with weight.
