Compliant Mechanisms & Mark Rober's Nerf Gun | Real 3D Printed Products

Check out Mark's full video here:
   • World’s Smallest Nerf Gun Shoots an Ant  

Or, learn how to implement compliant mechanisms into your own designs:    • 5 Living Hinges for Mass Production 3...  


Today we explore the power of compliant mechanisms by taking a look at a 3D printed blaster designed by Mark Rober and a team of BYU students.

We cover what compliant mechanisms are, and how they can change the way we look at designing and manufacturing products. We also break down some of the manufacturing challenges that might come up with Mark's design and discuss some design tweaks we might make to improve manufacturability for mass production 3D printing.
