Adam's obsession with the Hamilton stage musical has lead him to find perfect replicas not only of the original dueling pistols used by Alexander Hamilton and Aaron Burr, but the originally sourced replicas used by the propmaster for the stage production! Thus begins Adam's builds of era-appropriate carrying cases for these replicas, and modifying the props themselves to be more accurate to how they're represented in the musical!

Out of all the complex builds and repairs that Adam does on this channel, I love nothing more than watching him make a freaking box lol.

@tested 10 месяцев назад

Right???!!!

@mm9773 10 месяцев назад

Yeah. It reminds me of the box for the Blade Runner gun, which was the first of Adam’s videos I watched. Was definitely a factor in getting me to start making stuff.

@steadfasttherenowned2460 10 месяцев назад

I love exquisite containers. Always have. From nice cardboard boxes as a child to well-made wooden boxes today.

@pasquale78 10 месяцев назад

I second that! The first ever ODB I saw, was the beaver box. And I was hooked. 😂

@Celtic_Blade 10 месяцев назад

@@steadfasttherenowned2460Anything that’s someone’s thing. Aggie Cromwell’s bag, Yugi’s card box. All of them are amazing.

28:40 "Doesn't that look all official, n' shit?" might be one of my favorite Savage quotes ever.

@madisonbinkley149 10 месяцев назад

Crazy how I would take a box like this totally for granted but seeing it all built gives me such an appreciation for the craftsmanship that went into it

@carsonb.7581 10 месяцев назад

Watching Adam make boxes and other one day builds is what got me through the pandemic.

5:37 Yes, I couldn't agree more Adam, well said.

@Taylor-od 10 месяцев назад

Box builds are my favorite for some reason. Nothing beats a good box! Thanks for being such a life-long inspiration, Adam!

@willowmoon7 10 месяцев назад

Beautiful result! Adam's chaotic energy is so satisfying to watch, especially as a person with ADHD and a penchant for making things.

@philgallagher1 10 месяцев назад

You can tell when Adam doesn't like the way something is made by the way he says "It's fiiiiiiine. There's nothing wrong with it, it's fiiiiiiine!!"

@UTOOOOOOOY 10 месяцев назад

I just watched Hamilton live here in the Philippines, thought nothing of it at first, just brushed it off as a "unique" broadway show, I liken it to just something I just pass by a mall without a care in the world. I just went for my GF, after watching it, it's probably one of the best experiences I have ever had in my life. It's always been stuck in my head for over a month now and that very rarely happens. It's one of the best THINGS I have ever had a pleasure to experience. If you can go, GO!

@aka-chi_hurron 9 месяцев назад

The part that he stated "I think my gloves are compromised" and went to promptly change them shows clearly that Adam is very experienced and comfortable as a craftsman, but doesn't allow himself to become lax. Allot of people would have gone "meh they're compromised already so whats the issue?" Its the experienced crafters that get injured most often as they become comfortable and so become lax. I do wish he took a moment to address it though. Proper safety measures are always a great thing to mention, especially what to do when they fail.

@JustinDrentlaw 10 месяцев назад

I like how Adam was super careful about not cursing in his earlier videos but now he doesn't give a... Shit. Lol

@Thomas_Esson 10 месяцев назад

FYI for anyone aiming to get these, the base is model 1043/L, but it may come with the wrong hammer, so you may need to switch it out for the style on their model 1031/L. Also, the original Public Theater production's props were on display years ago with unaltered gold parts, so that can still be considered accurate.

I’m always a fan of a box building video. It’s cool to watch and learn how Adam builds them.

@coloradohigh3744 10 месяцев назад

It seems i am among the masses in the sens that i also absolutely love watching Adam make boxes. I also love fancy and specific containers and so every time i see him making a box of any sort i get so excited. I would also like to say that appreciated the shot explaining detail requirements for theater, movies, and in person. It made me laugh out loud.

Great build and rebuild! Awesome case and improved Denix guns. Thank you for sharing!

@nathantron 10 месяцев назад

Adam. Have you ever tried using cloth, wrapping your object tightly to get the curves, and then using the vacuum former to get the perfect shape for an object, and then using flexi-felt to cover it and create a perfectly smooth and tight fit for your fragile/older relics? It looks beautiful.

@Vickie-Bligh 10 месяцев назад

@destitute8493 10 месяцев назад

Years ago a gun magazine hired an expert to examine the dueling pistols, which were kept in a private Rockefeller museum at the Chase Manhattan Bank. He claimed in the article that Hamilton's gun was modified to have a hair trigger, presumably to give Hamilton an advantage. The theory he presented was that Hamilton was a bit nervous, and accidentally fired early, missing his mark and hitting a tree branch. Burr then had time to aim precisely.

@ZazuYen 10 месяцев назад

In the two productions of Hamilton I've seen he fiddles with his pistol just before the duel starts, I've assumed this was a nod to him adjusting the set (hair) trigger.

@NarsehVR 10 месяцев назад

For anyone checking out the Denix link, the base model is correct, but the hammer with the loop on top is wrong, so you may need to switch it out for the style on their model 1031/L (or perhaps write to them and request that).

@mattgriffin3331 10 месяцев назад

Nice job, though a caution: your featherboard looked pretty far back at the start, you don't want side pressure behind the point of cut if you can help it.

Idk why I expected anything less from THE Adam Savage, but people actually knowing what Dramaturgs are makes my little B.A. in Theater heart happy. That said....those classes...I was there....I passed them...but I had way more fun in my Tech and Acting classes. My lack of interest however does not diminish the importance Dramaturgs have to a production!!

@Erik-R 10 месяцев назад

Adam, please tell us about your reaction to I Did A Thing's new RU-vid video about dropping a coin off the top of a building. He demonstrates a compelling argument that the coin could do some serious damage if thrown! I was wondering whether the coin would start to tumble as it fell further, or would it maintain a spin like demonstrated in his video? Looking forward to hearing your thoughts.

@SquallLion1 10 месяцев назад

@JoeySublett 8 месяцев назад

Adam, I really enjoy watching your process. One little thing on this one scared me though. When you were cutting your box into 2 pieces, your feather board was in a very dangerous place. It should never apply pressure past the front edge of the blade as you cut. Putting pressure where the blade is can cause kickback. Just a thought

@JoeySublett 8 месяцев назад

that's why there were burn marks at the end of every cut

@richardbrobeck2384 10 месяцев назад

@dgenpres1 10 месяцев назад

All that work to hide the grain ends of plywood, but then you left them on the edges where you cut the box open so that when the box is opened my eyes are immediately drawn to the bands of plywood. A bit of adhesive veneer strips, frequently used on the edges of furniture, would've hidden that. But I realize this is just theater quality you're going for.

@snappers_antique_firearms 10 месяцев назад

I have been wanting to make a similar box for an original British flintlock sea service pistol I bought from a museum. It was a battlefield pick up from the battle of New Orleans during the war of 1812. I still take it out and fire it on Special Occasions. Great shooter, but it's very hard to hit anything, being it has no sights

If you ever get the chance there is a great episode in the first season of Lovejoy with Ian McShane that is all about a mystical pair of Durs flintlock. If you read the book version it goes into some detail about dueling. Both are the tv program and the book are called The "Judas Pair"

@CaoticoFanegasO_o 10 месяцев назад

The prop version of the Spanish culture of "this will do just fine". And guess what, they do just fine for what they are meant for. As few as needed moving parts, all cast. You won't get the "cling clang" or "clap clap" of a working replica, but for the price, you can run on the background with one of these clenched on your hands for as many hours, as harsh environment as you get, and no one will ever make the difference.

@lunchrevisited 10 месяцев назад

Nice case but I don't understand why you didn't stain the bottom. I know you'll say "it won't be seen", yet I saw it. Was saving 10 seconds really that important?

@packradtpackradt4581 10 месяцев назад

I want Adam to weigh in on Acme V Coyote, now that it's shelving is potentially the subject of a congressional investigation; do it for all the set designers, animators, writers and actors whose work was short-circuited because of How The Laws Work. Thank You. (A duel of another type, all too real)

@michaelcain2174 8 месяцев назад

It’s incredible how fast the silver plating happens . 😮

@pmsteamrailroading 10 месяцев назад

I strongly suspect that in SF there is a company that would have plated those parts in a bright nickel solution, then a dark nickel. Then run them through a vibrio polisher, and coated them with clear lacquer. And because you are you they would have done it today, and charged only a few dollars.

@jamesstenhouse7710 10 месяцев назад

As to the boxes appearance on stage you're most likely referring to the 6 foot 6 inch rule. At 6 feet it looks flawless but at 6 inches you can see it's true construction. Which also applies to reproductions and repairs of real antiques.

@Supersquishyawesomeness 10 месяцев назад

I had never seen Hamilton or heard any of the music until a few weeks ago. My daughters middle school did a trip to see it in Chicago and they let them get tickets for family as well. I was NOT expecting what we got. I’m more familiar with traditional mainstream broadway and musicals. My daughter was named after Eliza Dolittle so yeah. Now she knows why her music teacher always sings her name the way she does. I was pleasantly surprised with the whole thing.
