This week's build is actually a how-to project! Adam's had the idea for making a wooden sword out of just five dollars of materials since his theater shop days, and shows you the step by step process of building this inexpensive but satisfying prop. It's a build that can be done with any combination of materials, tools, and adhesives, and makes use of some of Adam's favorite propmaking techniques!

The good ol days. Drama club revisited. A $5 dollar sword??? Adam.... you need to get out my brother. Need vit D in you life. :)
@adam Savage How would you go about polishing the aluminum tape?
What was the address to send images of our builds to? I'm a cosplay weapon maker, and my normal build method is basically this. I tried sending it to testedinfo@tested . Com and got a response saying that address cannot recieve email or does not exist.
Love ya Adam, truly I do, but it's a 5 buck sword if you make multiple swords, because the parts are pushing 20 bucks, and I get that it can make 4 swords...but...
My son and I made Wolverine claws with cardboard, some 1/2" PVC tube, and the aluminum tape. He loves them, and his best friend wanted them in the worst way. We used 000 steel wool to polish them, Turned out fantastic!
Can we have something like this as a series, please? Accessible Prop Making for Broke people and Dummies? lol. It's lovely to get not only ideas on how to manipulate materials, but to also finish them on a budget. This is wonderful for entry level cosplayers and people just getting into making props :)
And for people wanting easy techniques to teach their children!
Or for making these for children! This would be an awesome play pretend sword for a child!
I was coming here to say that exact thing! Would love many many more accessible builds.
Not to take away from Adams work( because it’s amazing) but the TH-cam Channel Punished Props does a lot of cheep/how to videos on prop making and customization.
@@the_nestgaming2325 Checking that out now, thankyou!
I can just imagine:
"I cut this table leg off of somewhere, I don't remember where..."
*dining table collapses in the background*
"Also this cane, again, not sure where from..."
Old man falls down and gets attacked by pidgeons
literally lol
Not again!

Dang you Adam Savage!
I think you mean seagulls. :D
@@hirudo881 One day, when you are older. You could get hit, by a boulder. And while you're lyin' there screaming "Come help me, please!" Seagulls, hmmm, poke your knees.

So, you're saying his tatoo.....rules

"This is just a piece of round wood, it's roughly errr *casually measures on his arm*..."

He really uses his ruler tattoo, that's so cool.
Gotta love Adam
He used it early in the video too. You know you a serious craftsman to have n use a ruler tattoo like its normal.
It was kind of weird watching this Video when Adam was using his measurements tattoo because literally just the day before I watched it I commented on a picture on Pinterest showing different guys doing the same thing but using for being legal with fishing. So the fisherman use it to make sure that the fish isn't under sized and thereby be illegal. So I commented that the funny guy from Myth busters Adam Savage does the same thing but uses for things he builds. Then less than 24hours later and I watch Adam use his tattoo just like I spoke about
@@timothyvolkers5343 it's not really that serendipitous. Tech and ad corporations pay a lot for algorithms that listen to everything you say and post so they can feed and sell you exactly what you want.
@@christopherochoa4145 You are giving them way to much credit. Things happening like that aren't that rarely. You noticing those things is.
If ad and tech corporations would be using those Technologies you would encounter way more of these "coincidences".
@@Mariolinosify I encounter this shit all the time. Specially when using a smart phone.
“There’s a whole load of pros with no cons to go to.”
Heck that’s a good line
My reaction was honestly a case of "....... *tiny* *gasp* .......wai-Oh, I like that!"
I've been watching Adam on tv since I was 7 years old... I'm 15 now... all I can say is that he feels like a crazy cool uncle that makes you want to learn more about so many different things
Same! But I'm 17

If I had to describe Adam Savage in only one word...it would be, "genuine." You're a national treasure, sir.
I think the word "adorkable" fits here.
I love that emery boards were enough of a revelation for Adam that he hasn't stopped talking about how cool they are.
I use them on my electric trains to clean the carbon build up on the locomotive wheels
A good tool’s a good tool
@@mullhaupt4977 they're great because the wheels are so small
I find it hilarious that it took years for a professional model maker discover emery boards. Something every model making hobbyist has in their house.
reminds me of a cruel workshop engineering haze... send the newbie looking for the emery sticks... when confessing you dind tknow what they were talking about, they'd just hand you a nail file and tell you "next time, check the beauty aisle"
"you could do this whole build with a Swiss army knife." Can confirm: as a young'un bored at a church camp, i once carved an 8-bit Zelda-inspired wooden sword from a scrap piece of 2x4 over the week using just my Swiss army knife; the blade and crossguard were one solid piece, about 16 inches long overall.
I can feel your blisters by just reading your comment :D
But great job nevertheless.
It's dangerous to go alone! Take this.
Cool, but shouldn't you have been reading your Bible?
Substitute with "Swisstool" and the answer is "Comfortably".
Pics or it didn't happen.
I had a blast building this with my 6-year old son! Thank you for making this video and showing us how to do it. He loves it!
Adam : "Any saw u have access to will be sufficient..."
Me in the park trying the seesaw
Those are only useful for cutting water.
Well played sir, that gave me a well needed laugh
Ha ha ha, happy to be of service!
If you look at them too long they cut your eye.
Adam: A great sword you can make for right around $5!
Me: *buys a bandsaw*
At least you got a tool that you can use when ever you need it.
That's how it works!
haha i've bought so many tools after years of watching One Day Builds, and while it's usually a big expense up front, if you get the right tools you wont need to buy another one for several years!

I always love how he starts his videos. You always see him mentally prepare for what he's about to say/do. It's a very authentic touch that's always so endearing to me.
I made one of these on a Saturday back when you did the Hellboy sword video: scaryreasoner.wordpress.com/2016/03/20/building-a-wooden-prop-sword/ After you put the tape on, you can "engrave" with a ball point pen.

i love it!
"One of those slat pieces came off."
He's told other people, starting with his parents, that version of events so many times he's forgotten that it "accidentally" came off. ;)
16:00 Adam's foray into dubstep.
"I reject your reality and substitute my own."
Adam: "Round things are eventually always useful"
Me: "The lockdown weight gain made me useful"
"I'm in shape- round is a shape!"
"As broad as humanly possible!"
Had to resist the urge to turn to my Wife and say "See, you've always been useful."
@@-BananaLollipop- I see your will to live was stronger than the urge to make that joke :-D
That just means that you'll survive the winter in lockdown. It's time to hibernate, lol.
Adam kills me. Exactly, I was like, “What the hell kind of coping saw is that!?” As soon as he said Titanium I said, I want that.
Knew Concepts, best damn coping saw on the planet, worth all 30,000 pennies.
@@c1ph3rpunk $300, huh?
Yeah, do want but not willing to pay $205 for a tool I might use once a year. I'll stick with my old delta scroll saw I picked up for $50
They have some cheaper ones. Now I just have to talk myself into those instead.
Savage, the kind of friend you call on when you need some swords ❤
Adam is the most confident man in the world. He's brave enough to put a measuring device right next to his hand.
Don’t recall if it was Adam who said “An amateur will spend time to save money. A professional will spend money to save time.” That’s a good perspective.
There’s no telling how many kids you have turned into makers over the years. Thank you for the work you do Adam!
He certainly has made me one. I grew up wanting to be a myth buster and now I'm still watching him and wish that making could be my job
Hey Adam! I'm Manny, the one who created your t-shirt design of you as No-Face :D I just want to say thank you again for everything. This is a dream come true to see you wear something that I made. I've been pinching myself everyday haha. Great video as always! Cheers!
Sorry Adam, you made me cry. Did something similar, 25+ years ago for my son and his buddy. I went with buccaneer style. The neighbor kids over (we were rural residents and I worked away from home in oilpatch). The neighbor mother asked me for 4 more as she had 3 daughters in folk dance (for highland dance). My son passed away 3 years ago at 32 years of age. Brought back memories!
This is what happens when Jamie isn't there to say in his unique way: "You mean a lattice?"
Adam's reply, "thank you, oh boring one."
They had such awesome chemistry.
I miss Jamie. Shame he doesn't do much public now
he's solo now. And i think myth buster got cancelled ..
@@XxAzraelGTxX they also don't like each other.
@@Violaetor it’s not that they don’t like each other, but they just had a working relationship. That’s all it really was.

It’s like you read my mind- “that aluminum tape looks way better than I thought it would “
You crack me up several times each video, thank you for being you!
Really love how enthusiastic he is. He's like a child at christmas really inspiring. Adam you are the best!
Adam - I want to thank you for introducing me to metal tape. Your story about the shakespeare production is pertinent; I actually did produce weapons for a production of Henry V in highgate in london, my first ever work creating stuff for any production of anything. I spent far more than I was paid, of course, but it was worth it.
Two swords (made essentially like this) were used in a very violent choreographed fight, and it was absolutely brilliant - before every production I had to re-cover the blades with tape, as the fight would chip and peel them as they clashed. I'm considering experimenting with some thick wire or something running up the blade to make it stronger and give a proper metal clash.
It was a truly amazing production and I implore anyone with time to kill to volunteer to help out on a small professional indie theatre production - it's a world everyone should experience, the atmosphere, the buzz, the bizarre animals that are actors.

Yep. LARPers pre Amazon.
Pease do not larp with a wooden sword!!! Make some out of foam.
@@furinkazangamesn4410 well thats just... boring... wheres the fun if you cant get/receive at least some bruises or a splinter or two??
In other quotes "if you are into juggling", with full expectation many of us will answer 'yes'.
@@curiousfirely I would argue that juggling is considered more 'normal'. not that we care about that
Absolutely beautiful and perfect timing for me, my wife bought me a 3-D printer for Christmas my grandson came to stay with me I asked what would you like me to build he said a sword well we didn’t get around to it because we had some raspberry pie robots to make now I have an idea how to make him a sword he’s coming over in a week I’m rounding up the materials thank you so much again Adam you’re inspiring
Boy if teachers had this sort of hands on contagious enthusiasm for subjects just imagine what the result would be.
I love how Adam just has everything on hand. He needs a round piece of wood, he has one stached somewhere. I’d like a work space like that
I had a professor that called measuring by eye "the taco method" - nobody measures the amount of ingredients you throw in a tortilla to make a taco, you just know when it looks right.
God bless Adam Savage, isn’t he just a treat. One man the betters the human race, thank you Adam. I’d love to see more affordable prop making, fast and dirty, a foam built proton pack has always intrigued me. It is possible but order of operations is my weak point.
"i hope you had as much fun as i did" i dont think ive ever has as much fun in life as adam has making a prop sword and it makes me jealous.
The timing between "50 grit sandpaper takes off a lot of material very quickly" and _belt sander_ was amazing. The way the belt sander sound faded in before the transition was great.
_Yeah, we all know where this is going,_ but with sound cues.
Mad props to the editor.
When I was in middle school we had a Ren Faire at school and I wanted to make a sword for it. I had no tools, but I had old yard fence posts and my moms knives from the kitchen, for about 2 days, I carved down the fence post to the profile of a sword, roughly glued some aluminium foil to it and I am still to the day proud of that build.
how did your mum feel about your use of her kitchen knives? i know mine would probably use them on me
@@ciarangale4738 mom can't get mad if mom didn't know :P
But as a less mischievous adult than I was a child, I'd be heavily nettled if somebody used my kitchen knives to carve.
At 10minutes in when you're talking about how the imperfections give it a handhewn look I couldn't help but think of a book I read, where one of the characters mentions something to the effect of "We're meant to take orders from someone whose armor is unscratched? The boy has never seen a battle, never mind won"
Hey Adam, I'm a profesional plumber and we use a lot of things, teflon tape, etc. but never aluminum tape! That's a heating and air conditioning tape for sealing air ducts! I see it every time I crawl under a house, but never used it in plumbing.
10 mins in and I'm full of splinters from trying to draw straight lines on wood
Okay, maybe you should sand your piece of wood first for a bit.
Get a grip man! It’s a layout technique used by professional woodworking trades for millennia the world over 😂 ( get a grip was a joke just in case it wasn’t obvious 😝)
You may utilize your nails.
It's a very commonly used technique, even professors at my uni used it a lot.
Also - when working with your hands a bunch, the skin on your fingers will get rougher and tougher.
Thanks, "old girlfriend" the framer. ✍
As a college student with limited resources- I'd love to see more builds that don't utilize machine tools as much. That being said of course- still love the ones that do :)
My 11 year old daughter and I just spend the past three days making a four foot long one of these. It turned out awesome! 👍
Me and my dad did a run similar to this when i was a kid making swords for our childrens theater runs of about 5 plays, and outfitting the child roman soldiers for childrens nativity week, i also still have a spear i made using a broomstick i cut down, but over time i changed the fake blade for a non sharpened steel blade.
I have used electric tape and aluminum tape so much since then for little projects.
Im glad to think back an almost 2 decade old memory thanks to this video.
Love it, not always "How To" but "What just happened"

All of the tricks he teaches, my farther taught me, in the same way.. It was heart warming to watch a man teach his trade .
Man I like this 'uncut' version of adam savage way better than the mythbusters version... like sometimes I forget how crazy smart and brilliant adam is, and then I see one of these...
Your character really shows on some builds, this sword showed me the kid in you, you’re a big kid anyway but you had fun and it showed. Thank you
I personally, as a Round Thing That Is Always Useful, would really like to see that on a t-shirt.
I missed seeing you on the daily basis I watch mythbusters from childhood until you and Jamey left the show I wouldn't trade the experience for the world fresh after school come home and set down and flip to discovery channel and just be amazed by your antic's ❤️ I do hope you are taking good care of yourself!
Hey Adam, as an HVAC tech that deals with aluminum tape a lot, you should let people know that the edge of the tape is SUPER sharp and will slice your fingers like a razor. I loved the build!!!
I remember building wooden swords with my grandpa in his shop always one of my faveorite memories thanks so much for sharing im definetly stealing this
For me it was my cousin.
Yes fond memories.
Seeing this took my back to my childhood, woodcrafting little daggers.
They make black texture tape that is great for handles. It applies identical to electric tape, but doesn't have the sheen, and better for grip. You can skip the step of the string as well. Just take the tape, spin it to a tight spiral and it will form a sticky string. Apply it to the handle and then wrap the rest with the texture tape. I do this for all my hammers.
The things i'll never get tired of and have learned from this man : Have the same enthusiasm with everything you build from tiny trinkets to mighty stage sets.
The passion from this guy just shows through his smile and i just hope i can be half as driven and playful as this man!
My dad made me one very similar to this when I was 5-6 years old back in the 80s. Actually he made me several because I would "accidentally" keep breaking them. Everything from an Excalibur to a "ninja" sword. Then he made me a broadsword out of aluminum. I still have it. The handle is wrapped with leather and electrical tape.
Honestly, electrical tape is such an amazing handle material. It's pretty standard among drumlines to wrap your sticks in electrical tape. Provides better grip and makes them last a heck of a lot longer.
I've never thought of this channel, and especially your videos here, as a "how-to" kinda place. Mostly, I just watch because I like watching and listening to you, and watching and listening to you work.
Happy when you DO give us how-tos, though!
Even if you don't have all the tools in this video, every step pretty much has an alternative method, I love it. I'm also a huge fan of titanium, it's the only kind of jewelry I spend a decent amount of money on. It has so many benefits for so many uses.
Seeing Adam have the tape stick to itself was really gratifying, I thought I was the ONLY ONE. like I was a klutz
OMG, you have a tape measure tattooed onto your arm?
That is a stroke of GENIUS and I'm copying it as soon as lockdown's over.
Holy shit i never realized he tatooed a ruler to his arm. That is so badass
watching Adam play with the sword as it takes shape, is the most fun part of the video.
having a dad with the same skill set as mr savage will surely give any kid an epic childhood! great video halooo from the philippines.
19:40 Confound it, Adam, you forgot KHAAAAN!!!
Beat me to it
Larper here, it's amazing to see just how many techniques I've discovered for making swords are universal. Particularly, the way you made the handle with string and electrical tape is EXACTLY the same way I've always done it. Very cool.
Thank you for posting basic maker skills 101. I tend to forget there are many youngins who can benefit from this. I had several very patient mentors when I first started.
Man!... When I was 10 years old I would sell my soul for the sword like this!
🤘Amazing!
Adam: "cons cons cons"
Me: "KHAN!"
Exactly where my mind went, too. Just a pained Shatner screaming Khan!!!
Yup, I paused the vid to comment (lest I forget at the end) exactly that :D :)
First thing I thought of as well. "It is very cold in space."
Cdr.
My dad is an underwater welder and oh man the amount of swords hes made is AMAZING. They are all really cool too
Wow! I found you! here on youtube! SUB'D!
I loved you and Jamie on Myth Busters. I call him "Grim" cuz he's so quiet and grim. lol. I was looking for how to make a wooden sword and voila, here you are! :D Now I got something to follow along with to make it. Thank you! Stay safe and healthy!!!
.
Update: a few hours later: the blade is cut! I'm using (I think Oak wood) it's really hard wood. Now to shave the edges. I'll wait til tomorrow to do that. At 70 I think I did enough for today with running up and down the stairs lol.
“And this is a cut off from some project before i dont even remember what” probably the most used quote by adam 😅 gotta love recycling
that line drawing trick alone was already worth every single second watching ^^ thx alot Adam, always again u are a wellfilled trove of usefull and handy knowledge, keep up the great work ^^
“Right now there’s a lot of pros with no cons to go to!”
Me, a professional convention artist who hasn’t had a con for a year: *cries*
"That's almost a joke... I'm going to move on." lol
I randomly had the idea to use foil tape when trying to think of an alternative to buying an airbrush kit. I needed to look for proof it works and this is the best video!
"We don't have anything close to that kind of budget" ... so true!
This took me right back to being a kid in the woods carving some stick with my Swiss Army knife 😆 so much joy in this build a pleasure to watch.
Adam is just so fun to watch. I would love to just sit down and listen to the stories he has to tell
I love how I watched u as a kid on tv blowing stuff up and Laing stuff to test hypothesis now I am grown up watching you build stuff that I can go build
When making rougher quality or budget props, there's a lot you can do without committing to power tools. I cut down a 4x4 lengthwise with a coping saw, patience, and dedication, and sanded everything down with a sanding block and file. I think doing things the budget- and tool-limited way has helped me think out of the box, which has carried over to what I do now with CAD, power tools, and a 3D printer.
Adam after the lathe incident: ‘ill be more careful’
Also Adam: *puts fingers within millimetres of a running bandsaw blade holding a cylinder*
Adams playfulness always brightens my day.
I liked seeing you use your new work bench as well as seeing your monster disc sander still spinning in the background long long after you used it.
Oh, the coping saw is sweet.
I would LOVE to see Adam do an over the top wooden sword. Like movie quality.
You have a ruler tattoo!??! That’s pretty amazing. Not even gonna lie😂
Totally agreed, I am a maker myself and now I'm considering that same tattoo just because it is a awesome idea and really useful. The difference would be that mine would be in metric🤭
i know i keep seeing that and think it would be really useful. I dont have tats but maybe i need this one?
@@casstarre4131 What is the difference between a maker and a craftsman/woman?
@@chloehennessey6813 for me it is that a maker does it as a hobby, and a craftsman/woman does it as a profession. That doesn't mean that it can't be the other way around in your opinion. Because basically they are the same.
@@casstarre4131 You... do know that the human body changes shape and size, constantly, right? A month after getting the tattoo it would not be 100% objectively accurate.
Highkey, my first tat might be a ruler tat. idk why i never thought of that. so dang useful!
Really cool, but not very precise. Tattoos stretch and move with your skin over time. But it'd still look fantastic and if you're jazzed about it go for it!!
My late father made my Kokiri sword from the Legend of Zelda Ocarina of Time this exact same way. He was a carpenter so he actually had all the stuff for it sitting around his shop and since the sword was very simple he threw it together in a matter of minutes. To this day it is one of my favorite props (along side others he made for me). Watching this video was nostalgic for me. Thank you.
his excitement made me genuinly smile
Adam Savage: "I'm no authority in how to do things".
Yes, Adam, you aren't. You, however, *ARE* an authority on another thing: how to improvise. You get things done even if you don't know the best way of doing them. I know how to do some things better than you: YOU know how to do MANY things that I have _no idea_ how to do. I salute thee.
Somewhere between Norm Abrams and Angus MacGyver, our great nerdy craftsmith, Adam Savage.
Jack of all trades, master of none really is better than master of one. Happy hundred likes!
You want me to hang this on the wall without a shield? Where's my shield video?!
Hint: Lots of the same skills, different shape. Look up the shape you want to build and go for it. This _is_ where plywood might come in handy, for some shapes.
I remember making a crappy wooden sword as a kid. It didn't look like much, but even years later taking it in my hand was an exhilarating feeling. Swords are just so much fun.
Adams story of his 6 year old self reminds me of my 6 year old self and building nunchaks. When I was 6 I was a huge fan of TMNT and my dad was a tinkerer so there was wood and vinyl electric tape and some small chain around the house. So I built a set of nunchaks with the extra parts. Now I'm a hobby woodworker with a shop including a full table saw. Who knew
i wanna be Adam Savage when i grow up (i am 40 y.o)
I feel ya.
..... where was TH-cam when I was 12 and had adventures in the woods and was obsessed with diablo/zelda? I would've had an arsenal by now. At least finding good sticks made nice staves!
I don't want to grow up
I'm on your side
@@thomasnielsen7899 Good news is that if you're an adult, you don't have to :D I'm 40 and my mental age varies between 15 and 65 depending on mood and situation.
@@treborrrrr I hear that.
"Ooooh, that's kinda nice!" (using finger plane)
Love it when he impresses himself. LOL
Another smoothing you can do for the wood pre tape is use some wood filler or spackle the blade, and sand it back, then prime it. Should be super smooth for your tape. That's one i've used for when I need to hide wood grain in some furniture i've made for folks.
You're a good teacher, Adam.
37:11 i like how his sander is just slowly spinning in the background 😂
That's careful balance...why researching each time you buy a tool is important, no matter the cost. (Unless it's like $5 at a yard sale...if it works, grab it!) Some rotary tools will vibrate your table right out of the room. Those stop pretty fast when powered down...
I love how excited adam still get even over quick and easy builds like this
Dude! He's got a RULER on his ARM! Savage!
