Cor blimey, it’s Adam Savage… whoop whoop! 🥳🥳🥳

[@pacificcoastpiper3949]

Kurtis you lucky dog!! I’m extremely jealous. But furthermore, a collaboration has got to happen someday

[@Hybridesque]

I flipping squeed when I realised it was Adam Savage.

[@MrLpt100]

Fantastic. Feels special as a viewer of your channel, seeing someone I grew up watching on mythbusters physically appear in your space. Congrats and thanks on all the vids.

[@ypaulbrown]

This is crazy, the first ad to pop up at 16:16 was for a saltwater softener, and Adam Savage was the spokesperson…I have never seen him be a spokesperson for any product…pretty funny…pb

[@AlanW]

Very cool of you guys to let a random fan come by for a tour of the shop!

I saw the picture of you with Adam savage from Adam’s feed. It’s so unbelievably cool when my KZbin heroes meet up ❤😅😊

[@CuttingEdgeEngineering]

Such a mind blowing experience for us, we're still smiling about it!

[@danielcarter305]

Wow, really? It's been a couple of weeks since I checked Adam's channel, and my feed has been screwy ever since the election.

[@mustavakybab9890]

"KZbin heroes" .... Hmmmm .... but I know what you mean! 😄

[@reserved50]

which video

[@rixogtr]

made me go visit him at the Brisbane Exhibition Center, one of the best days of my life

[@Cerberus1960]

When i saw the forklift drive in, I thought is that Adam Savage. I then thought no, it can't be. But it was, and he seems like a really nice guy.

[@markfryer9880]

I think that we all had that thought; "There is something familiar about that silhouette!" "Damn, it really is Adam!" Mark from Melbourne Australia

[@davelister2]

I volunteered at Supanova Adelaide and Brisbane these last two weekends and I can say with certainty, having gotten a photo and autograph (including a quick chat) with Adam and watching his Q&A panels, he is one of the nicest "celebrities" I've met. I put that in quotes because I can almost guarantee that he doesn't see himself as anyone special, he's just a nerd like the rest of us.

[@entropyachieved750]

Wow that's awesome! Adam has just gone up a notch in my book for visiting you. How many other celebrities would have done that. Well done!

[@larsnachhaltigkeitimalltag3013]

Adam Savage! How cool. So wonderful to see two of my all time favorites together.

[@passenger6735]

There's nothing more satisfying (in engineering) than designing and building a tool that works well. Absolutely terrific. Nice to see Adam Savage too. I'll bet he was blown away meeting you.

[@gorillaau]

Its even better when the tool looks the part.

[@air-pala851]

Mate, I've been a mechanical designer for 30 years and have only come across a couple of guys who could translate drawings and designs with such a high level of precision, they were generally smarter than me and I was in awe of there skill. You're killing it!!

[@madscientist6843]

Both of you were fanboying over each other...what an amazing collab!!!!

[@khoatruong8883]

Haha, that was so wholesome to watch them both.

[@michaelmain1990]

I watched one of his videos where he talked a little about watching and learning from your videos. Thats gotta feel good knowing someone as big and smart as him looks up to you for machining

[@cloud-forge]

Two big makers colliding it"s amazing. Thanks for the surprise

[@darrencamilleri3667]

As a Boilermaker of 34 years who has just had to give it up due to medical issues with Ankylosing Sponditis , your videos give me a sense of pride . Your a legend mate Keep smashing it out on the Gold Coast all the best from a Boilermaker on the Sunshine Coast 👍🍻

[@CuttingEdgeEngineering]

Cheers Darren appreciate it mate, hope you can take it easy 👍

[@cschwad559]

Your welding is beautiful. I can weld but not very good at it. Every time I see your welding skills I want to run out to the shop and practice. Thanks for the inspiration!

[@Varangian_af_Scaniae]

My grandpa got that in his 40s and back then (the 70s IIRC) the only solution he was offered were an early retirement. Hope there is more options these days.

[@chrisdunn7936]

Can’t believe you met Adam and he came to your shop mate! That’s all time!!!! Unreal!

[@tristanpatterson3843]

Not sure I'd watch it if he was on the whole time. Like his channel, but here for the heavy learning.

[@chrisdunn7936]

[@WhiskyCardinalWes]

So, how does it feel to know that Adam Savage is waiting like the rest of us for your videos to drop? 😀😀

[@anthonyrivers8395]

😂😂😂😂😂SAVAGE COMMENT😊

[@J_Squatch]

I love this contraption of yours. It's such a great solution to the problem at hand. Looks like it'll get a lot of use. The thing that blows me away about Adam Savage is he treats the people he meets with as though they have the same iconic status that people give to him. He's genuinely thrilled to meet with other creators and has this infectious smile that makes collaborations incredibly wholesome.

[@Adventures_with_Josh]

No F.. ing way this is so awesome seeing you too together. I never would have thought I would see you too in the same video

[@ronnydowdy7432]

Seeing Adam Savage coming in on the forklift,I recognized him in the 1st 2 seconds. This is a wonderful surprise. I have been watching him since Myth Buster's TV series. The shop tools you have been making are going to pay for themselves in short order. Will make future jobs more cost effective for your customers and that's ALWAYS a plus. Karen never stops amazing me with her skills with her production of these videos. The best quality work and time saving with the repetitive stuff be showing it in fast motion because lathe work is not super fast and welding either. Thanks Karen for your hard work and time to bring us great content. Homeless may be 10 years old but he's doing great. ❤

[@alessandropaolini-xk1qb]

It's amazing to see Adam Savage in your workshop

[@Storebj0rn]

So you’re teasing us with Adam and then just doing a normal video? That’s…. Savage 😂 Happy Friday from Oslo, Norway

Right on guys! Another shop-made tool on the books

[@paulbromley4697]

What a privilege to have met Adam, that guy is a hero of mine I think I have watched every episode of Myth Busters at least twice ❤ and as for you guys keep up the great work 👍👍👍

[@robertrawlings]

Wow Kurtis and Karen, you both have surpassed yourselves, never did I think that I would see Adam Savage on your fork lift , I've followed Adam for many many years such a nice guy that move was wonderful I do hope you make a video together your fantastic channel is going from strength to strength . Like the new grinder lol and your amazing new tooling well done to you both . 😍

Very cool meet up with Adam!!

[@Pest789]

How cool is it that Adam Savage is a fan of your channel?!

[@utha2665]

If I could give multiple thumbs up, I would. What a cool thing to have Adam Savage visit you. I remember seeing on his channel that he watched all your episodes and was really impressed with your work.

[@tilekt4248]

When a legend comes to your workplace for a visit then it means YOU are a legend.

[@1soupasaurus]

Adam Savage is just a regular every day guy that loves creating things and exploring the capabilities of his mind.

[@DogSerious]

Adam did say in one of his videos that if he was ever in Australia he would drop by and visit you guys. Now that is fulfilment!

[@maboscience35]

Greetings from Belgium. That's a super nice surprise to see Adam Savage in your shop, knowing that he loves your channel and all what you do, I'm sure you both had a blast, as he has a BIG interest in machining and precision machining. Another workshopt tool, another job well done. Will be indeed a major time saver for you, allowing you to perform other tasks in parallel. By the way, thanks to you I got hooked also to HAL's video's. Big paw from Sadie & Rønne.

[@tonycook2347]

Way to go Karen! multiple camera angles , pretty sure this is the best engineering/ machining channel " in the world ! " 👍🏻

[@fredfred4086]

Yes. The camera work, and the step by step, visual storytelling style make these videos easy to follow and understand. There are other skilled tradesmen making videos of their work, but some of their videos jump around and are hard to follow. Karen is one of the best in the world. 👍

Not gonna lie, Adam riding in on the forklift really got me

[@LilMissMurder3409]

Adam violated at least 9 OSHA regulations in 6.1 seconds.

[@hashemmi24]

I appreciate how you guys arrived at the perfect recipe yet you keep improving it. tons of machining videos, yet somehow this is the only channel that not only i tolerate the full video, i actually patiently wait for them every week and enjoy, and seeing Adam fanboy over the place makes me really think of what you achieved. i wish you guys the best and thank you Curtis for the knowledge

[@Justice-Seeker]

Anyone familiar with MythBusters is going to recognize that guy. His DIY prop builds and interest in lathe work would definitely explain him being familiar with your channel. But I'd be a liar if I said I wasn't completely shocked speechless when I saw Adam Savage driven in on your forklift. My jaw hit the floor. Incredible, pleasant crossover. I hope you guys can collaborate on something some day.

[@BrassLock]
