All that hardcore engineering and then...googly eyes.. lol.
Any film of the axe? Looks hella cool.
Lifter Test:
Axe Test:
Both were done with the Ragebridge set to 50A, so for the lifter that's a straight 50A limit, for the Mag each set of brushes was getting 50A, so ~100A total. Max planned current for the axe is 140A. (70A per side)
Video of the axe at 140A-
High speed video (120fps) at 140A-

Looks scary - what is the material the axe is hitting?
Looks great, I have to say. I do like having been able to see it move from CAD through the construction process to where it is now. I also like the "ding" at the end of the axe demo. As if it's saying "Your fries are ready".
It's hitting 1/8" 6061.
Speaking of CAD files, NFX, here's the lot of them- http://nearchaos.net/NyxCadFiles.rar
The instructable on Nyx is live. Covers the full process and includes the original cad files along with alternate parts suggestions where applicable.

Spanky was due for a bit of an upgrade, so after quite a bit of design work and some laser & waterjetting I put this together:
