A long time ago (like 9 years) when i was around 12 years old i asked my mum for a portal gun replica i found for like 60 bucks, she told me to wait because the price will probably drop even more, and i'm still furious today when i think about it.
This channel is so criminally underrated. This is a top tier video with hours upon hours of work put into it, only to get 150 likes. What a shame, this guy deserves more attention!
I just found my atlas portal gun I got about 8 years ago in my attic. So happy to see it again and give it a clean up to see it’s still working just fine.
I'm incredibly glad(os) I got this video recommended to me, genuinely suprised you only have 3.4k subs, this is the type of content I expect from a channel with half a million, great stuff man

I have one of the NECA Portal Guns that I got at a relative steal from a friend a few years ago and I love it. This build is a very impressive substitute. (In case anyone was curious about the controls on that one, there's a sliding switch on the back of the grip that you can adjust with your thumb, between blue, off and yellow, and of course the trigger on the front.)
Wow, this is such a cool build! Seeing people actually build my design always makes me really happy so I hope you had fun and sorry for the mess. Btw. for anyone looking to also build their own version, I made a complete redesign where I addressed many of the issues (and there are many). I still didn't use velcro though, sorry 😝. Cheers, EVARATE
Thanks to this video...I was inspired to be Chell this year. My journey has already begun. We've already printed the arms and the large plate cover. My bf and I are splitting the prints between resin (my job) and filament (His job) while I foot the bill, and have ordered all of the non-print pieces. I'll take care of construction, and he'll help me with the electronics. I'm honestly hyped :) Thank you for this inspiration for this fun collaborative piece to do with my boyfriend! I will say, for people going into this...it is still NOT Cheap. Especially if you want to add electronics. I just price checked all the parts and I'm looking at almost $160 in electronics ONLY. That's not including the filament, resin, paint, and primer. So far, mine has cost me $249
I made one of these a few years back as well. Mine just had LEDs no sound but it was the first time I dealt with wiring stuff up like that. Yours is very cool I must say and I felt your pains in putting this together as I had a lot of the same problems.
Love this!! For the process of removing the filament lines with the whole filler and spray paint method, have you tried using plasti-dip? You'd still need to put filler on the larger cracks but the plasti-dip would fill in the rest of the surface pretty well and make it nice and smooth. If you wanted a high gloss finish you'd still probably want to spray paint it after but its really great for prop making!

Who would've thought that the portal I bought years ago would be this expensive now. Maybe I should sell the official portal gun that I owned for years
Would it be possible to make one around a mini projector so you could project an actual portal on a wall? It would probably be a nightmare with the lights, sound, and the projector but it would be pretty neat🤷🏽♀️

I can't help but to find the title funny when I imagined the video starting with advanced physics that break down how a real portal gun breaks punches holes in the spacetime continuum.
Imagine if one day we were actually able to make portals and in that case, I bet someone would costly make a portal gun to be shaped like the portal gun
Here's a cool idea: there's a mod for portal 2 where you can play it in vr. Wouldn't it be cool if there was a controller that looks like a portal gun?
I’ve watched this video at least 100 times cause I’m building a portal gun of my own 😂 is there a discord or anything I can join? I’m a bit intimidated by the soldering part
8:27 oh no, not a lemon remark! here we go... *clears throught* you know what... when life gives you lemons don't make lemonade! make life take the lemons back! demand to see lifes manager! make life rue the day it tried to give cave Johnson LEMONS!
No one can understand my naivety when i saw this and literally thought to myself "shit they invented portal travel" like it was a normal wednesday evening, before realising like 1 minute later that no, they did not invent portal travel.
Unfortunately, a D cell battery wouldn't have the capacity / amps needed to power everything. Using a rechargeable battery with a high amp and power capacity powered by usb was what I needed.
UPDATE: EVERATE has realeased a V2 of the portal gun. You can find it here: www.thingiverse.com/thing:6191828
Now you need to make a real working portal gun

$60?!? Shit, I'm over here pissed with you. I've always wanted one of these, but there damn expensive. And you could have had one!?!.
What? No....
Thats sad, sorry dude
I wanted one in 2017.. fuck inflation.
Oliver is that you or is the old man profile way too common?

as a fellow, but lower-quality, portal-gun building nerd, might I say that yours is one of the best I've ever seen!
Yeah!

I'll never forget how harrison krix (aka volpin props) made his own portal gun when the game first came out. you did a great job with yours

2 videos. All I needed to see from your channel was 2 vids. Fastest subscription ever
the huge success on the paper made me start
“This was a triumph”

wtf? how is this so underrated! this should have views in the hundreds of thousands!
This reminds me of that popular portal gun video from 2012, love it!
Your LTT shout-out worked, and what a great channel!
Ridiculously underappreciated video and channel. Remember me when you're at 100k subs and beyond! :D
You are seriously underrated. You deserve much more attention
HE’S NOT UNDERATED
Finally some bigrig big content
Your content is crazy good, i just discovered you through the roggenrola vid. Keep up the amazing work
My families had one of these portal gun replicas for years i had no idea they're so expensive now
How does this channel only have 11k subs all ur videos are so good
The best channel in this kind of stuff

I know it’s a bit late but iron man helmets have this little board for power banks that constantly use enough to keep it powering the port

Also, you should make a turret next! but for it not to take as long as the other projects... probably make it smaller.
Thank you youtube recomendations
I had no idea the song on the radio in the beginning and the credits song were the same song, just different tempo 😅 that is cool

Awesome build! May I inquire as to what happens when the radio song loops for 5 hours, 18 minutes and 48 seconds? Thanks!
This is the most unhinged meme ive seen in some time.

The fact that he found Chell is insane
I can't help but to find the title funny when I imagined the video starting with advanced physics that break down how a real portal gun breaks punches holes in the spacetime continuum.
You only need Dave's Armoury's glados and some stuff from portal to make a full walkthrough of portal irl
What did you use for a 3D printer?
Imagine if one day we were actually able to make portals and in that case, I bet someone would costly make a portal gun to be shaped like the portal gun

where's the mini black hole? or the guns cooling fan?
In the loop reference earns you +1 subscription
If you’re making a portal gun, be sure to get some moon dust to make into a surface for the portals to go on.
I have to ask, how much did this all end up costing in the end?
There were a lot of parts I had to buy in bulk, so I would approximate it inside the $250 range, but there are ways to make the final cost cheaper.
WHAT SO AWESOME
What if you made a blue or orange portal with one of those light hologram fans you used for that purple Pokémon but bigger
