  1. 0:53Sketches lay out moving nozzle arches and undercarriage sprayers for an automatic dog wash.
  2. 6:34An unexpected CNC lathe delivery supplies a new way to machine the carriage's roller wheels.
  3. 10:57The wooden carriage, drive belts and Arduino control box come together for a scanning test.
  4. 14:43Eva is frightened by the platform, so Brie takes over the testing.
  5. 16:04A revised floor grate and replumbed nozzles get another muddy-dog test; the verdict comes at 18:18.

The engineering problem isn't just getting mud off the dog. It's keeping the dog from shaking that mud onto everyone helping.

Stuff Made Here's only new upload of the week, "When your dog wont stay out of the mud", answers with an automatic car-wash-style rig. An arch of moving nozzles scans along a platform, with sprayers underneath handling the harder-to-reach areas. Getting there involves resin-printed parts, bent conduit, an Arduino controller and a surprise CNC lathe delivery. A household cleanup problem becomes a substantial fabrication project.

Then comes the part no control box can solve: Eva is frightened by the machine. A second dog, Brie, takes over testing, and the first wash exposes problems with pressure, nozzle placement and gaps in the deck. The revised test arrives later in the video, followed by his wife's verdict. The video includes a sponsored segment for CAD software Onshape.

Viewers are already asking for more pet-centered builds and a closer look at his parts-fabrication process. Others have suggestions for the water jets and drying system. The upload had only been online an hour, with about 2,500 views, so this is very much its opening scene rather than a settled result.

Across the channel, daily viewing is somewhat below its usual pace and the subscriber count was unchanged over the week. "I made an apple peel itself" remains the busiest older upload, followed by "Six questionably legal pencil sharpeners" and "Baking brownies from the inside out". Nearby engineering channel Real Engineering is drawing above its usual daily viewing, while Practical Engineering is quieter than usual. For Stuff Made Here, the fresh addition is decidedly domestic: all that workshop machinery deployed against muddy paws.

What viewers say

  • We need more pet centered projects! I've been wanting to design/build some sort of automated chew toy catapult, since my dog never seems to run out of energy to play fetch.
