James, this is possibly the BEST GIFT I have ever received!!! I love it SO MUCH. You did such an incredible job…I'm...in awe. And ok - here’s the thing: I feel like we need to make a *massive* one of these together. I’m talking bonfire status. Let’s make it happen - I’ll maaaybe even consider giving you that welding class you were wondering about 😉⚡️🔥

I’ve built one similar to this, but began experiencing problems when using for extended periods of times because the tube heats up to incredible levels due to the flames, and will destroy the speakers. I would have gotten some copper tubing and done some light water cooling, or used some cheap heat pipes and air coolers near the speaker ends to keep the speakers cool. Doing this on the outside shouldn’t affect performance or acoustics.

[@wordaddict1169]

Firstly, amazing job on this project! Secondly I'm a huge Hawkeye fan and with his series wrapped up I think it's the perfect time to see what you guys could come up with for trick arrows!!

James seemed surprised at how much fun he was having designing the art for that project.

[@LegoDork]

A grinder and paint, makes you the welder you ain't. - William Techumsah Sherman

[@bradw3499]

I think a possible revision of the design would be to install the speakers facing the same direction versus the mirrored direction, that way assuming the speakers are synced you would get the flame to interact with the treble and mids, while also getting a good sound. Keep up the awesome content hacksmith!

[@wardp.9832]

That is so cool - Especially at the end ! The PORTABLE COUCH and your RUBEN TUBE go together perfectly to make toasted Marshmallows!!

[@jblen]

This is actually super cool. The way it goes out and relights actually works very well with it.

[@brandonb417]

With a speaker at both ends, seems like the pressure waves will be combining, providing a modified wave form inside the tube. Especially when using the frequency generator, it almost looked like at some frequencies the waves were cancelling each other out.

[@120Livi]

I think of all the santa gifts this one is the best

[@whwhwhhwhhhwhdldkjdsnsjsks6544]

My physics teacher did this last year, was pretty cool, his was a less a less elaborate setup but it showed the waveforms a lot more clearly. Was also about 2.5m long.

[@WMCloseProtection85]

I was wondering if using 2 speakers in their setup may be cancelling out a clear signal for the gas to show the waveforms?

[@PatrikDezseri]

@@WMCloseProtection85 I was wondering the same thing not specially cancelling out but creating a third one, so when they use the app to see a specific wave it doesn't really shows up

[@WMCloseProtection85]

that's such a cool idea and execution as always! I was curious from a science perspective if the 2 speaker setup directed towards each other in the tube may have cancelled out a clearer signal for the waveform? went to the comments thinking someone would have debated it but not? 😆 🤣

[@DomiaAbrWyrda]

If the distance between the two speakers are of n times the wavelength + half the wavelength, it will cancel out (I'm assuming you meant the speakers facing each other?) If it's n times the wavelength, it will get amplified Do note that I haven't finished watching this video yet, and I'm translating from my Korean knowledge to English on the go so there could be slight errors Just wanted to answer since it was an interesting question ;)

[@JohnSmith-io3ii]

The maker secret Santa is something I look forward to watching since it started.

[@JackSparrow-gh5ur]

Honestly this seems like something that could be added to the shop. Maybe it wouldn't be profitable but who knows, id pay like $200 for one with some Bose speakers in it or something. Would be really cool if it caught on but you guys were known for making the original brand! Could also just make a kit with no speakers included or cheaper ones that come with it but make room for speaker replacments. And also, I'm sorry, he's allergic to WHAT!

[@hacksmith]

But bose speakers alone would cost over 200 bucks!

That song was fire 🔥 😎

[@MrDuno9]

Would really love to see a bigger version! Reuben's tubes get better with size, in order to see a standing wave of the full frequency of human hearing (20-20000 hz) you would need to make it about 16 meters long, give or take a few meters depending on the pressure of the propane. But to see standing waves of 60hz, you'd just need to make it 5.5 meters long, so that's doable! It would look a lot cooler I bet.

[@ryansharples935]

Little bit misleading. Thought you were going to make an instrument that uses fire, much like a tesla coil. Not just visualizer.

[@ethanedwards1648]

I love your projects and when you did the rocket slap, it was was so histaric

[@apaxman00]

Awesome gift!! Question: with both speakers on opposing sides, are they setup as stereo? Or is one setup for a inverse waveform to keep from cancelling each other out?

[@punkdigerati]

I'm pretty sure there's destructive interference happening, no standing waves were present. Generally they're made with the speaker on one end and the gas intake on the other. It might still work okay if only one speaker is used at a time.

Play through the fire and the flames on this... imagine. So fitting

[@An_Entire_Spinell]

16:08 The flames flatlined!

[@BenaminBranch]

Another way to make the tube work is to have a balloon and the speaker next to it playing right into the balloon. This make the balloon vibrate to push the air molecules and the on turn push the flames. It’s more of a diy way to do it so you don’t have to have to have a special speaker.

I like the double flame 🔥🔥 when beats comes on 👍

[@Cenright]

It might have already been said, but by putting the speakers on both sides, a lot of your frequencies cross and cancel each other. Most larger units use speakers on a single side, so you can see the waveform in its entirety. Nigel Stanford's 'Cymatics' video actually shows a pretty good example of this.
