[@ryancox4498]

I wish the U.S. would just bite the bullet and convert to metric already. I know it'll be a pain to change everything, but it'll be worth it. The imperial system is just so obnoxious and I'm tired of it. Fahrenheit is still superior to Celsius, though.

One million thumbs up for taking the extra time to put in all the measurements, explain all the tools, all the little details, and still having a ton of fun with it. I know this channel is more of a side thing for you Adam but I love it when you take your time with the camera and I get to learn all the minute details in making things like this, and how you would problem solve the problems you run into. My favorite build so far because of this! Keep it up!

[@jasonprince5482]

One of my fav things is watching him recover from a mistake. Not the mistake itself, but the fact he is as human as the rest of us, and goes right back at it. Inspirational.

"For those of you using a sane measurement system"- Adam Savage, 2017

[@ImMimicute]

Adam Leverson you're damn right, god damn imperial with its 37/64ths what the hell is 37/64ths?!

[@Justin-ou6gq]

ninjanathaniel Imperial is much easier for doing math with, such as dividing 1/8" by 2, but whats 7.67mm/2 off the top of your head?

[@xjvr713]

Justin S. 7 / 2 + (67 / 100) / 2 3 + 100 / 200 + 67 / 200 3 + 167/200 Its not really comparable though because it is such a large and unwieldy fraction. If it was 7.67 inches it would be just as hard to do.

[@jasperfk]

Darqk I think you misunderstood. He's saying Imperial is quicker for mental maths. For example, let's say you've a bolt that is 3/8ths. You need to know exactly what half of that is, simply double the denominator for 3/16ths. Imperial is easy to do in your head. In metric, 3/16ths is equal to about 4.762mm. Most regular joes can't divide that off the top of their head - I know I can't without a few seconds to think or maybe write it down. Both measurement systems have their benefits.

[@adamrasmussen3521]

Justin S, You really can't generalize like that. Say you have a 40mm screw. Dividing that by two is easy, but 1.57480315 inches divided by two is harder and not possible to write as a usable fraction. It is ridiculous to assume everything will be clean fractions, the world seldom acts like that.

[@gruilekzo]

I see a lot of arguments over the measurement comment. So let's brake it down. What feels more sane? IMPERIAL: 1 foot = 12 inches, 1 yard = 3 feet, 1 mile = 1760 yards. METRIC: 1 centimeter = 10 millimeters, 1 decimeter = 10 centimeters, 1 meter = 10 decimeter, 1 kilometer = 1000 meters. You choose.

[@gruilekzo]

And yes I know about "chains" and "furlongs" but I've literally never heard someone use it, so I skipped them.

[@caseyclymore4417]

gruilekzo well it's quite obvious what the answer is, we have ten fingers so a base ten system would make the most sense. It's what we were raised to, and simply because it is a simpler system doesn't mean it switching to it would be simple. It's like English, it would make sense if every switched to it considering how it's a trade and business language on the international market, but you would run into issues trying to convince the citizens of smaller, less globally involved countries to switch to it.

[@gruilekzo]

Casey Clymore Yes, that would be a good argument if wasn't for the fact that only 3 countries in the entire world still use Imperial units. Those countries are Liberia, Myanmar and USA. So in this case these three would be the "less globally involved countries" as you put it.

[@kwanarchive]

The thermal exhaust ports on the Death Star were too wide because of Imperial conversion errors.

[@zeframc]

@gruilekzo He was talking about everyone switching to English at that point.

[@michelprioleau730]

i like how the original prop was probably randomly put together by some dude, and to this day fans are still trying to make a perfect replica

[@carlotemplo5281]

Micoco45 That's exactly what I think too! I like to imagine in the off chance I get to work production in a film that would eventually become an international treasure for generations to come, I'd be like: "Okay this piece can go here, this one here, I have no idea what this is but it looks good over on this side so you go here...I'll let the geeks make up the lore for this thing."

[@SillyWillySandoon]

The best part is that this is probably the case for most props in most movies. Just some guy making some shit that he thinks will look good, and if the movie gets popular enough people will spend way more time trying to replicate it than he did making the original.

[@caesar2164]

I'll put money the small boxes were 1" slices of a planed 2x4 :) (2x4s are actually 1 3/4 x 3 3/4, but if you plane them down to take off the rounded edges you get about 1 3/8)

[@estevanruiz8735]

Pedro Bergamaschi welcome to our planet then, it's nice to be one of the first people to make contact with your species, there are a few key things you'll need to do to understand us earthlings. The first thing you'll need to do will be to watch Star Wars, 456, then 123 if you really want to watch them, they are worse and not really as important, then 7, then Rogue one. A better system might be to not watch 123, start with rogue one, then 4567.

[@nicholi8933]

Don't feel bad, I watched the original 3 when I was a kid, but didn't watch the episode 7 one until 2 days ago. Still haven't seen the rogue movie.

[@arokace]

Watching 123 is definitely important, yes there are issues but they are canon, they show quite a bit of information that you otherwise wouldn't know...and there are some awesome fight scenes/characters as well. Darth Maul being a simple example.

[@orrebiff]

go watch star wars then. skip 123. and watch the rest

[@acexprt]

[@100-s9l]

The original strap probably would've also worked if you took time stretching it out and formed it into shape while damp, then drying it to keep the shape. Wet molding is done a lot for knife sheaths which also tend to use 8+ oz leather.

[@fuzzytractor90]

You guys should come out with a one day build that is not edited, so like a 7-hour video of Adam making something. That would be super cool. Or you could do one that is like 30 mins and one that is 7 hours of the same build so we can see how long every thing takes

[@XxZiphRaxX]

or he can just live stream a one day build that would be easier

[@SteefHartman]

in a live-stream they can't cut out the swearing

[@fuzzytractor90]

hahaha yeah that's a good idea, but what if some people cant make it to the vid? Maybe they could do a livestream and then upload it, only downside though, most of the time live streams have really crappy vid quality. That is why I suggest it.

"Or for those of us who use a sane measurement system, 2mm" dead. But he's correct. USA standard is idiotic. I wish we would use metric

[@MrSpookersMcGeeThe1st]

Of course we _can_ use it. I use it routinely for chemistry. The snag is that it's not widely used by most Americans. Talk to Americans in metric terms, and most of them will get confused. If a Brit came to America, and an American asked the Brit how far a drive is from city X to city Y, and the Brit told them the distance in kilometers, they'd get a pretty bemused look. If my wife asks me to get a half gallon of milk, I don't ask her to instead say 1.893 liters. She'd probably slap me if I did. Is the imperial system inane? Yes. Is the metric system better? Yes. But imperial is what we are taught to use, it's what we are told to use, and so most people use it, and because most Americans use it, the rest of us do as well so we can relate information to each other more efficiently. I know the rest of the world resents us for using imperial, but hey, a lot of us do too.

[@LJW55]

If a Brit came to America you would pretty much be talking the same language as they use Miles, Gallons, Inches, Feet & Yards for measurement. Now if it was just about the rest of the world (I'm from Australia), it would be the metric system. It would be soooo easy for the US to change to metric, I mean you already use it with your dollars & cents!! We in Aus changed our money from pounds, shillings and pence to dollars & cents in 1966 and then measurements in 1974... There was a little confusion at first especially with the elderly but now of course no problems.

[@honestinsincerity2270]

It really is an idiotic system with no rhyme or reason to it. With that said, I cannot for the life of me get my brain to convert over to visualizing lengths in metric. I really want to but I think after decades of being taught to use imperial, it’s just too hardwired in as default. Either that or I’m just too stupid to change

[@BernardManansala]

Please do a "Indiana Jones Satchel" one day build.

[@barramute]

Why seal the boxes when it could actually be used for storage, lol.

[@Wearyman]

Because the design of the bandolier is actually crap. It wouldn't hold jack in real life. The boxes would just fall out all the time. Real weapon bandoliers are designed to hold rifle rounds, pistol rounds or shotgun shells, all of which have a tubular shape with a point (or blunt) on one end and a LIP on the other end. The round or shell goes into the bandolier "business end" down, using both a tight friction fit and the lip of the casing to prevent the round or shell from falling out. In order to hold a box or square shaped item on a leather bandolier you would actually need something with a "bag with flap" design along these lines: img0.etsystatic.com/013/0/6786260/il_570xN.426145624_bar4.jpg However the Star Wars prop designers didn't do that, probably because it would be much more difficult to do than the simple "straps and snaps" setup they ended up with. Also, I suspect that the more "sci-fi" look of the "metal" boxes affected the decision as well.

[@JD2jr.]

He could have just riveted in the lids, though, between the lid and the top strap nothing would move until you unsnapped the strap...

[@yorgle]

or done that first, then rivet the box to the lid, so you get the proper look to them too, and it holds all together.

[@xandercyrus2303]

'The boxes would just fall out all the time.' - Why would they? They're actually fixed by the tension of the matched outer stripe. 'Real' wookie bandolier doesn't have snaps. So the boxes can only slide, and only with some effort. i.imgur.com/I4kguMK.jpg

[@Clay3613]

They could hold Nerf darts or something.

My compliments to the editors of these videos... you guys do a remarkable job! You too Adam you're extremely talented!

[@stanirelandbig]

Adam , wow you are so much happier . I love your description and process. This is your passion. Ta

[@THECanadianIdot]

I know that it is KILLING Adam that Peter Hayhew pointed out that he misspelled "Wookiee" on the treat boxes. I picture him running out of his house, jumping into his car, racing to the workshop, and fixing it as fast as possible.

[@SiCrewe]

Totally saw that coming, as a result of using the thicker leather for the retaining strap.

[@greybacon3172]

i love mythbusters i have watched for years and it is sad its getting a new generation you guys taught me so much that in school i have had 98 in science all year thank you for what you guys did and hope that you might make an appearance on the new mythbusters as a special guest

[@scottrider8445]

Sure Adam has great energy and enthusiasm and charisma and everyone loves watching him. But I love his ability to handle mistakes. When he messed the top portion of the belt up he just accepted it and moved on to go and fix it. That's so inspiring to me.

[@cyphershock9712]

"Failure is always an option" You did amazing on this build Adam, you Savage... I would love those *Wookie Treat* Canisters... Keep on being awesome!

[@aqs90]

"For those of you using a sane measurement system." XD

[@philiphochendoner2540]

"You can pick one up on ebay for...$30." Every cosplayer tutorial.

[@xXFIREWIREXx]

I knew the second you used thicker leather and your old measurements there would be issues. was surprised you never used your aluminium tape trick on the small boxes.

[@SeSeMittens]

For a cosplayer it is really soothing to know that even Adam Savage has to redo some things :)

[@brittanyescobar742]

Adam, don't know if you'll ever see this comment but I'm one of your biggest fan. Been following you religiously for over ten years and I just absolutely love you!!! I've sent fan mail, but never comment on videos. You're the only celebrity on my bucket list that I'd like to meet! I doubt that will happen but if you want to put a stamp on a paper air plane with your autograph on it, I'd fan girl myself silly hahaha I love everything you build so even a paper airplane would make me literally jump for joy. Your geeky fan Brittany

[@jmack56]

Is that a Totaro costume hes planning back there?

[@WhaleTPK]

He's already finished and posted a Totoro costume build.

[@DaimeonShrader]

He has one. This might be an old video.

[@chartle1]

no its just the old plans still on his white board

[@briangardner2851]

Make the DLT-19 blaster!

[@pelop100]

wasn't Kirk wearing that when he killed Spock in the phantom menace?

[@alessandrob4542]

Philip Hollon wtf

[@alessandrob4542]

Philip Hollon that never happened that's Star Trek idiot

[@pelop100]

NINJAPIG XL ohhh shit you're right, I was thinking this was from Lord of the rings, my bad.

[@pelop100]

ganymedeIV4 damn, you're right. on a similar note, have you seen the kits you can buy of Indiana solo's light- saver from the elder scrolls vi? it's insane.

[@pelop100]

SgtPiggie nah he's in the wrath of Khan series

[@Merc1377]

See how much love Adam savage puts into everything? Choose love not hate

[@WesleyTreat]

4:55 Totally impressed with his two-handed technique, then realized it was a mirror.

[@TheHyena-ru8bz]

I would kill for that Bandolier snd Satchel. A. cause it looks just like Chewbaccas B. because it was made by Adam Savage

[@chadthundercock4982]

C. Wookie Treats!

[@punkbloater]

Great build, i would have used thinner leather at least on the top strap.

[@chillchillpill]

Shots fired! "For those of you using a *_sane_* measurement system, 2 millimeters"!!

[@envisioner007]

I love this idea. not only the work done into it but just the idea of all the lovely tool work, that I'm trying to learn myself in what little down time i do have.

[@Feornic]

Watching Adam work is genuinely relaxing.

[@penttijakonen3817]

Sane measurement system! = )

[@TheBluedragon1221]

who else uses a sane measurement system?

[@JohanStendal]

TheBluedragon1221 Well everyone except the US, Liberia and Myanmar.

[@DragonGateDesign]

And you care why?

[@tommyglodo4495]

I want to see a how to build a R2D2

[@cadilovr]

Astromech.net

[@ChloetheGaymer]

He already has an R2D2.

[@tommyglodo4495]

Chloé Lee yeah I want him to talk about it

[@chartle1]

That would be Adam's 5 year build. :)

[@WMfin]

feat. Grant Imahara

[@thevoiceofgod7454]

spend my weekends watching Adam build stuff.

[@Admiral_Pumpout]

Being an Adam Savage lookalike and even tho I completed an engineering apprenticeship, I would love to have his enthusiasm and workshop to complete such a build. My ONLY criticism would be the riveting position for the big box lids: I’d have rivetted so that the press stud belt would have covered the rivets. Other than that, another fantastic one day build!

[@ransombarnes5775]

You should give the treats away at cons when you are in costume

[@enso8762]

21:50 Totoro outline

[@Danny.._]

There are actually English words written on death star equipment in the original Star Wars, which is changed to in-universe "Galactic Basic" script in later versions.

[@Fremen1971]

I think he meant mail letters, not alphabet letters.

[@JoshuaDavidBrown-Jaded423]

Fremen1971 lol

[@Napalmnate]

Oh Dan....

[@sc_art5408]

Aurebesh?

[@johannesdolch]

Watching Adam work is Zen-like.

[@Thobewill10]

Adam's enthusiasm is just infectious!

[@mackben3068]

love it

[@jordanlacey9467]

Fedora game is strong

[@chotonkhan9979]

Jordan Lacey wwwcomxxx

[@LongLLY]

Every time I watch these videos I get jealous of all the cool tools Adam has

[@ickleshouse]

what a great workshop to have !?.... could sit for hours watching this guy do his thing !.

[@EC2019]

But but but...shouldn't it be "wookiee treats" and not "wookie treats"?

[@neelkaturi]

The purse should be called Chewbagca

[@sapphic_sophie]

What's with all the slow-mo spray paint shots these days?

[@thijsvandenbroek9097]

Aidypie Slomo spraypaint fetish

[@DaveWhoa]

you would understand if you're the type of guy who likes to watch paint dry, its more exciting in slow motion

[@mojostevo]

I build for a hobby. Some day's want to work on it, but I just can't get the ball rolling... Until I play one of these One Day videos in the background; Then I'm in the mood and ready to rock and roll.

[@CarboniteDreamer]

here's your thought for the day. making something no matter what it is no matter how you're doing it. you are taking something that used to be part of a star and bending it to your will. how cool is that.
