Awesome build! Aaaand siiince we're talking about game weapons, may I bring your attention to the Transistor, from the game "Transistor"? It is a very unique blade, which is rarely honoured with a real-life, fully-fledged replica. It has an incredible amount of soul to it (literally), as it houses a consciousness of one of the game main characters. It has a very unique, futuristic, electronic style. Also, the original material isn't that consistent, so it would be very forgiving in terms of adding own modifications to it. I would love to see you build one. PS I would also want one PS 2 Yeah, I knew that post-scriptum won't work, but it was worth a try :)

I doubt this will ever be seen by Adam or Tested staff, but I hope it is. You've probably seen these before, but if you haven't, they're amazing for shaping wood. Not a replacement for a grinder with a sanding wheel, but more an addition. Japanese saw files. Essentially a bunch of hack saw blades connected in a elongated hexagonal grid. They are amazing wood files for quickly removing material and can even act as a rough hand plane to an extent. the basic version www.amazon.com/Saw-File-S/dp/B001AX0X12/ my preferred version www.amazon.com/Shinto-9924ao-File-Sander-Type/dp/B00264J284/ (you can find them cheaper than this. probably much cheaper in one of San Francisco's amazing Japan-town hardware stores ... man I can't wait till the vaccine so I can take BART again and hit up a Japan-town hardware store. Those places are a wonderland.

@DragonHide94 Год назад

A note about "flats" on a tool handle: Much like a sword or any edged weapon where edge alignment is important, an axe handle could benefit from flat sides to provide a reference for alignment. Swords of the past also did have oval handles as a more round substitute for a flat octagon or rounded rectangle, but in general,, flats are beneficial. An axe also has a weighted head which tends to help alignment for a cut, but it also tends to carry momentum when out of alignment. Thus flats would help an axe as well. It may not seem as ergonomic, but practically speaking there is reason to consider it.

The things you do, and the mannorisms you portray, remind me so much of him sometimes and it brings me great joy to see it again. I was lucky enough to help with some of his projects and builds.

This is PERFECT for me! Thank you so much! I've been trying to think of a way to make a really good, almost real looking great axe prop for a dnd character I play. But it has a really specific design that larp makers don't design even close to.

Adam has forgotten more than I have known in my entire life! Man his knowledge gives me goosebumps! For real! And his energy is just amazing!

Adam's facial hair is styled perfectly to accommodate for a dust mask.

My favorite guy making my favorite weapon from my favorite game??? Best day ever.

whoever's in charge of audio, it would be much appreciated if you just removed the frequencies of the background noise. The volume threshold just makes it so that whenever Adam talks, the high pitched background noise kicks in and it's very difficult to ignore and always gives me a headache while watching these one day builds (which I LOVE)

@luigi-op6mq 3 года назад

that or just leave the background noise in, the constant cutting in and out is worse than just having the noise be constant where one would get used to it very quick

I grew up watching Mythbuster's. I'm very glad to see you keep doing an awesome job you won another fan. Congrats man. Greetings from Mexico

You're so wholesome and badass, love you man, glad you're putting out content still after all these years

Adam, your one day builds are AWESOME!!! I would only like to see some clear, zoomed shots of the more detailed things of the builds.

@JCBeastie 3 года назад

What a wonderful gift! I was a little bit miffed the coin got painted over though.

@michaelc3977 3 года назад

Rushed it. There were loads of mistakes and omissions in the end.

@mktj1 2 года назад

Yep. And the end cap at the head of the axe was missing.

True magic in this video. Reminds me why I loved myth busters so much. But more intuitive. And awesome.👌

I Love this Build. This reminds me of, My Grandaughte, she is a big Magic/Hary Potter Fan, as a maker I made her a Wand and a Potions Box, making , using the skills to make a young family member happy is so amazing a feeling.

My favorite part of halloween is making the key props for costumes. I can sew adequately for the portions that require it (usually just modifying things I bought at thrift stores), but it isn't really fun. Unfortunately the best accessories end up being things *I* have to carry while trick or treating (Gandalf's staff, including glowing stone; Legolas's bow and quiver; Grimreaper's scythe). With only a few hand held power tools (and a generalized miserliness) I resort to simple (or more complicated but cheaper) solutions like finding appropriately sized branches and shaping them with handtools before sanding/carving. After building a bunch of prop items, I have decided there is almost nothing I can't recreate with foam, hotglue (for adhesive and sculpting), waterputty, thermoplastic and random items lying around in the house/workshop. But a box or something to be used on a semi regular basis is something that requires more care and proper building. That's my next test (and you've given me the good idea, thanks!)

I feels really great to watch someone who both enjoys what they're doing and is very good at it.

@AverageBud 3 года назад

Very awesome and thoughtful One Day builds. I am sure your nephew loved it.

When I started learning about leather working, my friend said "jack of all trades and a master of none" ...but the more I watch you, the better I feel about wanting to know how to make and work stuff in all mediums. Thanks for the videos!

@rheatinacreatishia7636 Год назад

Don't worry at all, the full saying is actuallu "Jack of all trades but a master of none, *but is better than a master of one* "

@Rarkmeece 3 года назад

This is my favorite because it's for your nephew! You're a great human Adam!

@shotgunshelz7987 3 года назад

Probably my favorite one day build. So fun, so cool, and for such a kindhearted purpose. It’s got everything.

@AdamWrightthegeek 2 года назад

Adam's childish enjoyment and splendor toward his projects continues to reinforce my love of exploring DIY projects and my own growth.

@jeffrens9218 9 месяцев назад

Adam, thank you for the years. Started with Myth Buster and the entire cast. Loved it. Found Tested recently and just Subscribed. So many great memories. Currently watching the making of the Levitation God of War Axe for your nephew.. AWESOME. Thanks again for the many years of innovations throughout Our Time. GREAT!!!!
