Hey about the part on using water instead of oil, when i was machining aluminum too i found that out as well. However, the profesionals use some white coolent instead of a lubercant.

Asellith · « **Reply #39 on:** April 05, 2008, 11:13:12 PM »

Make sure to check out his other videos. He just did an interesting project on his way back to vermont involving a cool tower. Man what I would give to have an old school stone tower in my back yard but he put a floor at the top after clearing the bottom out. Oh and he built some interesting bee hives.

Rebelgium · « **Reply #40 on:** April 08, 2008, 12:47:39 PM »

yeah I saw them, those bee hive show that he's really talented...

Sorry it took so long, I've been a bit preoccupied with life. =\

Any who, Right now he is in Alaska. I'm not sure when he will return but I know we cant wait!

HDL_CinC_Dragon · « **Reply #45 on:** July 17, 2008, 02:19:33 PM »

Hes going to return soon. Hes pretty much done with the work he had to do there. I think he mentioned something about having to go down to Florida again though. I dont remember though

Rebelgium · « **Reply #46 on:** August 19, 2008, 12:54:10 PM »

He's back!

He's back in Vermont and he sais he's excited about continueing the giant robot project. Right now he's still busy building a road to his dome in Vermont, so he can get material to the dome easier.
Be sure to check out his videos of Alaska to, they're great.

kotentie · « **Reply #47 on:** August 28, 2008, 08:32:25 PM »

quite a project.

airman00 · « **Reply #48 on:** November 01, 2008, 08:03:32 PM »

he added some more videos

HDL_CinC_Dragon · « **Reply #49 on:** November 01, 2008, 11:00:02 PM »

A couple weeks ago I went up to his place to meet him. Hes a pretty cool guy. Ive been following his project(s) ever since I first saw them from this thread. Im actually in a video helping him work on a project that another friend of his, Ellen, was working on. Its not on his youtube page though, its on Ellens. We were working on the Sphere
Pretty cool

I plan on visiting him again sometime soon and probably going to be staying for the weekend at the dome helping him work on stuff and such. I was only there for like 2 hours or so when I went up.

Fredrik Andersson · « **Reply #50 on:** November 02, 2008, 02:45:44 AM »

I so much want to visit him as well, and help out on his projects also of course. I have considered doing it, but that has to be on a long trip since i live in Sweden. I should maybe wait until i graduate also.

I really hope more people will come and visit and maybe even settle down and live like him. It would be interesting to see what happened if ten people or so lived there instead (and worked just as hard as Jaimie do). He have by himself already fixed water, shelter AND infrastructure!

HDL_CinC_Dragon · « **Reply #51 on:** November 03, 2008, 03:46:15 PM »

He actually has plans of buying an island and only allowing specific "cool" people on it to live with him and create our own society lol. He said I have a spot on that island if I want it :-p totally do

dunno if thats a joke or not

Problems with an Island : far from land ( which means medical help, food, and safety in case of emergency)
Too much worry from flooding
Expensive ( the islands with freshwater springs at least )

as someone who actually grew up on an island,
it does have a lot of advantages. not everywhere you could disappear hitch hiking all day when you are 10 years old without your parents having to worry.
as soon as you get old enough to want to see a city easily it's time to leave though.
i don't go home much these days. getting the ferry just takes too long.

Nice Whisky

I do prefer the whisky Jura though, I think its still classed as an islay though

dunk · « **Reply #55 on:** November 04, 2008, 07:25:04 PM »

naa. Jura (the whiskey) can be nice but it's kind of unreliable.
Jura (the island) is always cool. takes even longer to get to/from though.

I think he's lost interest and given up on his giant robot spider . . . $:-\$

got a link?

Oh, and island living is great if you have an army of robot monkey butlers doing everything for you

Rebelgium · « **Reply #57 on:** November 06, 2008, 01:41:12 PM »

I hope he hasn't lost interest, and i don't think so.
He's been asked it a few times, and always denies... plus he said he's building the banana building to work on his robot inside.

So I remain hopefull, with some doubts however.

HDL_CinC_Dragon · « **Reply #58 on:** November 06, 2008, 03:10:50 PM »

I assure you he hasnt lost interest. He just doesnt have the space to work on it anymore. Thats why hes building the banana building and originally the tower. The tower is pretty sweet by the way. He has the first floors floor boards up. They arnt nailed in yet or anything though lol. The view is amazing from even just the first floor of it though. Its really really cool

Heres a link to the video of me helping out a little bit:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h5kg4kx3k0I

From the video it doesnt look like I did much lol. Im more towards the end at 5:43 in the count up time.

Rockyboy53 · « **Reply #59 on:** November 14, 2008, 09:30:11 PM »

I don't get it?? It seems a good idea to me, but it's a little, err... odd.
