[@douglascampbell9809]

Adam, If you take a flat head screwdriver and cut a slot in it the screwdriver becomes a tack puller. Sharpen the tip a bit to make it easier to get under staples and then twist the handle to twist and pull them out. I worked in furniture manufacturing for about 8 years. It's a must have tool there.

[@TheCammerhammer]

Adam Savage recommending a tool that he purchased and used of his own volition is worth so much more than any number of sponsored users praising a tool. I find his expertise in making and building props such a boon because he has such a broad range of experience building that he can find the proper use case for any well-crafted tool. The sincerity that he has when talking about the strong points of a tool is a breath of fresh air in a browsing experience polluted with partnerships and sponsored products everywhere you turn. I understand that people need to make a living and I cannot fault them for taking money from a willing advertiser. However, buying and using a tool with your own resources and using it on your own time rather than finding a project that suits the tool specifically makes me feel confident that Adam isn't selling me snake oil and genuinely wants me to know about something that could potentially make my building experience that much more pleasant.

I gotta say, I really like the more down-to-earth, low-budget style of the quarantine videos. It's nice to see a little more of the process and hear more of Adam's stream-of-consciousness narration. Honestly they could stay this way moving forward and I'd be happy.

[@charleshanson9467]

Adam works with the speed and frantic movements of perpetually doing a quick favor for someone, as if he says before each project, "Hold on a sec, I'll just fix this real quick."

He's stressed and depressed and you can see it. Ergo the more then usual manic energy. The door project is subconscious need to lock the world out. That's why the hollow Core comment came out. It's too flimsy ergo unsafe.

The nicest thing about Adam is he is an everyman and humbly so. When he goofs up (like the rest of us) he does not edit it out or seek to conceal the fact that he has erred. He gets frustrated and is not perfect, freely admitting when his knowledge is lacking. Also, I like that he does not look camera ready ever! Just like the rest of us! It is no wonder I am a little addicted to watching his voyages.

[@csn583]

Well the stapler has already had its moment in the sun. I'm astonished Adam's never used a multitool before! It's just his kind of thing with dozens of oddball uses; you'd think he'd have a one-day-build about making a holster for it to be in his EDC! 🤪 I avoided these things for a while for the same reasons he gave, but after reno-ing my attached studio with all the outlet holes in drywall and awkward trim cuts, I've come to appreciate mine greatly. Check out SeeJaneDrill's video about re-cutting the teeth on the attachments, otherwise you'll go broke replacing them as they lose teeth constantly. Also, I recommend getting one with an attachable plunge base to make accurate 90° cuts when needed.

[@miker4460]

use silicone basting brushes instead of acid brushes. once the glue dries in the silicone brush you can slide the dried glue out and reuse the brush :) no sense in creating more waste

[@charleshanson9467]

I have a silicone brush for glue. The glue in the center of the bristles never dries and so getting the dried glue out is a multi-step process to let each layer dry out. Actually annoying. I just wash it with warm water when I'm done. Water WILL dry all the way through, and it doesn't mess up the water based glue if you use it wet.

[@bjornschmidt8231]

I was really shocked to hear that you use acid brushes only once and trash them. While you can certainly afford it, it is extremely wasteful and the exact opposite of sustainable. Whether you continue using acid brushes or go for the silicone variety, I suggest you dump them in a water-filled jar when you're done with them and include cleaning out the brushes and emptying the jar to the daily workshop shutdown checklist. That way whatever stock of acid brushes you have left will last you forever...

[@ThePhoenixAscendant]

I have a Sili-brush I bought from Amazon, and the bristles spread the glue wonderfully, and the blade on the other side gives me perfect edge clean-up! And cleaning the brush is super simple. I just stub it into warm running water and it flushes right out. If it dries on the bristles, it peels out no problem. And for less than $7 it's a fantastic product! www.amazon.com/Sili-Brush-Silicone-Wodworking-Hobbyists-Rubber/dp/B009OCEBD2/ Edit: A good way to work on a door without removing the screws is to pop the pins out of the hinges and it will be SO much easier!

[@1pcfred]

I just wash the brushes off and reuse them. I've been using the same 3 dozen for years.

[@patrickeveleigh6007]

Yes, exactly. I picked up a silicone brush from the kitchen utensil section of the local dollar store for this purpose.

[@dougdobbs]

For what it's worth, Adam, I found that grinding a knife edge on a used oscillating saw blade allows you to make amazing cuts on extruded foam board (insulating blue board). Nice tight fits with zero little blue "sawdust" all over the place. Sharpen ALL the edges, they all get used at one point or another. I found the ones with a wide head and the narrower "shank" where it connects to the tool work the best for me. Glad you've discovered a new expansion of your abilities! :)

What about every time he throws something on the floor that could possibly injure him... 3:06

[@MmeHyraelle]

Take a shot every time he yeets something. Get ethylic coma in 15min.

Adam: "No one can lose a tape measure faster than I can." Me: "Challenge accepted!"

[@koryyyRae]

theres one time where I lost the my dad’s tape measure that he literally bought like a few hours before i lost it

[@tested]

Ha!

[@Krackerxoxo]

I keep 3 or 4 laying around.

[@GodMotorsport66]

I have five tape measures all different lengths but only have 3 to hand 😤

[@dmstrat]

On one magical day I will find the 2 dozen or more "lost" tape measures about 15 minutes before I die.

[@blaisetheginger]

I love those Stanley handles! I have a ratchet set with a screwdriver-style base for the bits and it shattered a few years ago. After combing thrift stores and secondhand stores for years, I finally found the exact one to replace it! I was so happy.

Hi Adam, I'm a professional commercial door installer with wood and metal in New England. I think you did a great job, and you sounded very knowledgable of your doors. I was impressed! Long time fan! Keep up the great work! Always fun. Also, love the Mythosaur skull in the back, This is the Way ; )

For Some reason, “Wild West Saloon Doors” would suit Adam somewhere in the cave

[@metalxhead]

Ohhh that sounds so true and fun!!!!

[@greencupcakes1]

As someone that works somewhere where I go through them every day all I can say is “NOOOOOOOooooooooooooo!!!!!” Literally every single injury you can get from a saloon door has happened to me. They get caught on clothing and things you are carrying, they swing back and forth very hard and a lot faster than you’d imagine which can both hit you in the face with tremendous force and also jam your fingers between the doors. If there is more than one person anywhere near it it only gets worse from there.

[@ImprobableGarage]

"No one can lose a tape measure faster than i can lose a tape measure." I felt such a kinship here. I literally have a metal yardstick screwed to the wall with TAPE MEASURES GO HERE! written on it. I have more tape measures than fit on it, yet it is rarely full because so many have wandered off.

[@alexythemechanic8056]

I use ones that are meant to clip onto a belt (or the top of an open toolbox, which is where they live). I usually find them clipped everywhere apart from the top of the box. They like to go on adventures.

[@linmal2242]

Whenever I'm upstairs in the house of horrors the tapes are downstairs, and....you know!

[@mattrickard3716]

This really hit home with me. I have lost several over the years. Occasionally one will return for a while, but never for long. I always hold out hope for them, but deep down, I know that it just.... it just isn't meant to be 😢

[@leebrock8386]

@@mattrickard3716 Throw away that hope brother, because they will never come back for good. I feel like tapes hate humans. So they run away on purpose lol Even if you put it in your tool box its still gonna be missing when you open it up.

[@johnboyofalaska4182]

I spend half me working time walking back to where I just was, to grab one of the 4 tape measures I left there... Because the last time i left a tape measure there I grabbed another one from the tool box, and walked over there with it. AND LEFT IT OVER THERE. ARRGGHH! And now there's none left in the tool box to grab!

[@SlipFitGarage]

I thought the same thing about the oscillating multi tools. They looked way too good to be true on TV. I was doing a project one day where one of those tools would come in handy. I finally broke down and bought one and I was totally surprised! They are awesome for certain types of work, no question. If anyone reading this comment thinks they might have a good use for a multi-tool, don't hesitate just buy it! You won't be sorry.

[@kennyharris91]

"Sometimes crunchy is the flavor of the day"...This is mine now. Thanks Adam.

ADAM: "No one can lose a tape measure as fast as I can lose a tape measure" ME: "Challenge accepted!"

[@kimspence-jones4765]

I have three tape measures (somewhere) in a vain attempt to always be able to find at least one. It mostly works.

[@neiloconnor5912]

Thats why I bought like 100 when I found them on clearance for $0.05 at a local hardware store. Now I have one in every drawer, toolbox, and vehicle.

[@NastierNate]

Looking forward to the upcoming One Day Build: iPhone Camera Clamp!

[@Fabianweso.]

How many nails you gonna put in that? Adam: yes

[@BROON71]

Why put one staple in it, when you can put two dozen! 🤣

[@bobbob6472]

23 in the top frame board alone (I counted)

[@4362mont]

your cheerful attitude towards life inspires me to just keep moving...thanks Adam...

[@kevinotoole885]

I watch Adam because I think I’m a younger version of him. I work so much like him AND multitools!!!! I’ve already burnt out 2 and I’m on my 3rd one!!!! As i do plastering, timber framing and drywall walling for a living it has got to be the best thing I have ever bought!!!! You don’t know how much you need one......until you’ve got one!!!!! Get one if you haven’t already!!! I’m a massive fan of the diamond tip plunge attachment that goes into brick, block, cuts metal.....it’s a must have. Don’t get me started on how amazing it is for cutting plasterboard 🤣🤣 just reading that back I sound like a right nerd....I’m not honestly 🤣🤓

Reminds of the time I installed a cat flap. When I finished the job, I realized I had mistaken the top of the door for the bottom

[@Therodaas]

So, do you just throw the cat through the cat door?

[@lillithyukiutacrow2532]

@@Therodaas depending on how jumpy the cat is... they could achieve enough height to still use it

[@stitchfinger7678]

I did the same thing! I got a new slab cuz it was cheap (rental, i cant cut holes in the doors that came with the place) Even got the door hardware right! THEN I cut the flap wrong!

[@barneymiller7894]

Better have a nimble cat.

[@RainbowGin]

Now it's a bird flap

[@pl5bnsf]

Was nice to see Adam do a project that was not perfect, just good enough. I have been doing some work around the house and it's hard to always worry about it not being done well enough. Glad to see there can be times for 'good enough'.

@36:00 - I found out doing some foamcoating for an escape room set that if you mix latex-based products with vinyl-based products is makes a thiccc gooey ball of slime that is no good for anything but is fun to play with I guess. Maybe one of your glues had latex?
