As a recent mechanical engineer, I'm still excited to watch this. So refreshing

I've recently been trying to teach myself robotics engineering and making and this is the first video that really breaks it down! Thank you!

I want to invent things, but I do not know the knowledge and skills to bring my imagination to reality, is mechanical engineering for me? I'm like Rodney from the movie Robots.

Knowledge is gained through experience. No matter what you might some day excel at, you will start as a bumbling amateur as we all do. The best way I have found to learn is to find things that are fun to do and then build projects with them. Certainly some people prefer reading textbooks but I get the most value our of building interesting things that happen to teach me stuff. If you want to learn mechanical engineering, find some way to design and build things. If you can buy a 3D printer or access one at a local library or school then do that, and then keep making things. You will learn more and more over time. Sprinkle in book learning or college lectures from KZitem to learn more about related things. Also try other design skills like software development or electronics. For those, try writing some Python code and build something with arduino. For Python perhaps you can get a raspberry pi and hook up some “neopixel” or “ws2812” LED strips to it and make a device that lights up different colors. This doesn’t work for everyone but I can share what works for me, and for me just building things every week and really every day, from software, 3D printing, electronics, and some art has gotten me where I am today. I hope that helps!

When I did my first build I messed up like 500x till I got it right! I am studying mechanical engineering to try and improve it now! First lecture learned so much it hurt my brain lol!!!

@@sajidkhanmevlogs5508 in general I suggest finding projects that interest you outside of class work, and working on them often. That’s the best way I’ve found to learn the skills I really want and find what interests me. Anything related to your field or a related field that you want to learn. Projects in unrelated fields are valuable too - I really like photography for example. But limit how much time you spend playing video games, watching Netflix, or drinking. Working on projects is more fun and you will learn a lot. Remember to take it in small pieces and realize that your progress will take years. You don’t have to become an expert at the start, just keep learning.

I LOVE the verbal cadence and dialog of the lecture! Instruction is clear, very informative strait to the point Bravo...HOWEVER this video was posted in 2018 so why does it look like a classroom film from 1985?????? filmed a class on a tripod, but then the power point slides that the class can see looks blurred on the laptop! Did you not put this on the internet for the world to see???? so the people watching on the internet are like Damn i wish i was in that class that day to SEE THE IMAGES CLEARER as we get this great lecture LOL Now I know, if someone could round up the teacher, the camera ,the projector, the computer, the internet, AND the KZitem account to upload this for the world to learn from, then for the love of ALL matter,,, WHERE DID YOUR ADOBE EDITER WANDER OFF TOO????? pieces Thank you kindly for the video and wisdom of the world.. muchly appreciated

Do you ever account for "frangibility" in terms of materials. From my very rudimentary knowledge of it...its the property of a material to break up or disperse under certain conditions
@SequoiaAlexander

It's a good question. In my robotics work I don't account for this, as generally my goal is never for anything to break. But for something like material processing I bet this could be pretty important.

Can you be a self taught mechanical engineer?
@SequoiaAlexander

Sure, but know your limits. Train under a skilled mechanical engineer in the workplace, and probably stay away from designing things relating to human safety. Most of what I know of robotics is self taught, though much of the content of this lecture came from school.

Algebra and calculus should be all you need. Study how gears work. Do you mean you want to make an electrical generator? Look up the KZitem channel Jeremy Fielding for information on electric motors and generators.

Good overview, but as far as a classroom presentation a little more energy/gusto to hold interest. This is more of a kitchen table one on one talk.

Thanks. It was my first time teaching and I had fun, but I am sure I could get better with practice! That was my first and only time ever giving that lecture.
