Amateur Burt Munro hand casted and machined all the parts he used to modify his 1920 Indian Scout motorcycle chasing the world land speed record. He kept all the failures on a wall over a sign that said “Offerings to the Gods of Speed.” After he passed, the local hardware store where he purchased many tools inherited and now displays the entire wall from his tiny shed in tribute. He achieved the record at age 68 on a 47 year old motorcycle. The record still stands.
@@ithinkihadeight No doubt. But i dont know many who have seen it, but its always a movie that i recommend when the conversation turns to that subject. Im a motorcyclist for 30 years myself but the first time i watched the movie i had no ideea what it was about, i got it as a torrent file and was thinking it was about native americans running very fast :)

The Amazon Blade Runner cartoon/anime had fine action, but the story was amateurishly written. Hopefully 2099 won't be written like that, but it is Amazon made after all. Ridley Scott made a mess of the Alien franchise with his terrible newer movies, so I have no hope for anything else he ever does.
Time Bandits is such a brilliant film. So many memorable moments, I can’t put one down as my favourite. Maid Marion? The Titanic? Napoleon? Oh, I need to watch it again.
Doorbell rings every episode like in one of those kids shows “oh hey there’s the doorbell let’s go see what FedEx brought me!” And now I’m realizing Tested is basically Mr Rogers for mechanically inclined grown ups
Adam is so humble he thinks he has a slim chance at making a prop for Bladerunner 2099… Can’t the tested and Savage audience blow him up enough that they will give him a a contract for only a prop? Cmon? #savage2099
Yo my question made the cut. Cheers Tested was a great live stream also, Thanks for the amazing pronunciation(irish for David) I died laughing and Adam got closer than most do.
Not that I wouldn't want any and everything that Adam makes, but there are two very specific things that I would like to have beyond ALL others... Adams current work surface leather, framed and hung on my wall where I do amateur model making. That and the copper oversized nut and bolt that had so many mishaps throughout manufacturing. To me the story that the nut and bolt tell is one of overcoming obstacles and growing as a maker through the process of doing things "beyond reach". That single item speaks to me on such a deep level. The kind of thing where I could imagine staring for hours... Beautiful!
Adam has a nice life. When his doorbell rings he calmly says "ahh, I have a package." I have the exact same doorbell ringtone and when I hear that I have to leap to my feet and run to the door before the delivery man manages to run off after leaving a failed delivery card.
Actually, I like the postal bag, it would be an item that is useful day to day. I'd love just enough to make a watch strap out of. Hell, send me some and I'll make 2, one for you. As for the U2 flight . . . well we can't take a Blackbird trip any longer so that is indeed as good as life gets. I honestly think that would be probably more enduring a memory than spaceflight as it's so much more up close and personal to our Pale Blue Dot.
I find failed parts of things make a great source of greebly parts for other things. That way materials are not wasted, and it gives extra story to the build :)
A bag is nice because you could use it all the time. If you're a person who carries things around in bags. A cosplay is nice too, but except for the times you wear it, it sits there as a display piece. A cool one, but the bag seems like it would get more use and be a great conversation piece.
I say go for the bag. Not that a gladiator armored arm wouldnt be useful - if one were to step through a time portal and end up doing battle with a Minotaur - but on the streets of San Francisco the bag would be something cool and unusual AS WELL AS useful!
At some cons, there will be cosplay repair folks roaming around. They always reminded me of the WWI battlefield medics - deep in the trenches, saving people with ingenuity and the supplies they can drag with them. The work surface leather would make amazing armour or something for that emergency cosplay medic. Or recognition badges - like how the wwII soldiers at Tobruk used pieces of a downed plane to make their Rat Rampant badges, or how the British Military’s Victoria cross is salvaged from a captured artillery piece. A leather patch stamped with a macguyver mullet over a hot glue gun and leatherman cross. You could give them out like challenge coins when you spot someone doing that kind of saintly work.
I personally would like to know what kind of leather that Workbench top is made of. Is it boiled and waxed? I have a workbench/art desk I built that gets a fair amount of abuse and I have been looking into making my own leather mat to try and protect the surface.
it looks like a piece of maybe 4-5 ounce veg tan of some sort, veg tan leather is quite durable and you can dye it whatever color you want, then put a coat of wax over it, either neutral or colored if you can find it in the dye color you used, much like polishing a pair of boots or shoes. clean it up if it gets dirty with some saddle soap and oil it with mink oil, that'll help keep the leather supple and prevent it from drying out and cracking as happens with age.
I have a workdesk top made of bullhide, boiled, waxed (can't get the block of red wax they used to actually spread without some heat) and then boiled linseed oil rubbed in. Note: linseed oil boiled, past tense NOT currently boiling, present tense.
I am fairly sure that's his old workbench topper from before the new workbench, which I believe he did a show-and-tell of sometime in the year before the pandemic (2019). It is kangaroo leather, if my memory serves.
Great video. Adam, you have really inspired me to do something creative. I have begun to work with epoxy resin and create interesting artwork with different themes. I am starting with small studies about 3 or 4 inches in size and plan to scale up to larger scale pieces of art. It is really an expressive medium to work in artistically. I recently made ice cubes and had to learn how to recreate the ice cubeness of an ice cube in epoxy resin. So many failed attempts until I made the perfect cube!

I have another suggestion for the work bench cover. Years ago my friend was the flyman for Hubbard Street dance company. They would take their old Marley floor cut it up into square and have the dancers sign them (spike marks, scuffs and all). Then sell them. Maybe you could do the same. I think it would be quite a cool piece of art to hang on the wall. You could sweeten the deal by donating a portion of it to some charity.
Wood failures are the best. Watching them burn to ashes. Metal one are Destin to the hydraulic press. To crushed then to be thrown into the scrap bin. Hearing the lovely sound as it lands in the bin of no return.
Before you cut up the bench top leather have you considered getting it framed and putting it up on an art gallery with all the different stains and tool marks I’ll be very curious to think what art critics have to say about it. I mean they have splat art on the walls that fetch a lot of attention I’m sure you’re peace a leather would just put icing on that cake. And after a short one your tour you cut it up into a pageor whatever you want to use it for.
One of the coolest things about the U2, was that the operational envelope was astonishingly small. The aircraft just didn't want to fly, you had to get everything just right, or you'd literally fall out of the sky. The margins they achieved on that aircraft come close to the SR-71 in terms of how hard the aircraft was the engineer, and make flyable. The SR-71 was the better aircraft by far, but the U2 is still pretty damn cool.
@@jasonrackawack9369 I actually did not know that. But i guess it makes sense, it's still useful as a reconnaissance aircraft. And much cheaper to fly than the SR-71. Although for cool aircraft, my 1st and second will probably always be the SR-71 and the A-10. Just as close as we have come to an aircraft perfect for the role they were designed for.
Apropos putting screw-ups on walls... My parents were both biochemists, and for a while they both worked at the same institute, which happened to be only a few blocks from where I was going through first and second grade. So, after school let out, I'd walk over and do my homework in one of their offices. One of their coworkers would often make himself a pot of tea partway through the day. Being a much more relaxed time, he did this by placing an aluminum kettle of water on a bunsen burner on his lab bench (big, solid, brick-topped affairs). Problem: He'd occasionally get absorbed in his work and forget about it. His colleagues commemorated these occasions by recovering the shriveled, shrunken remains of the kettle from the bunsen burner and carefully mounting them on the wall of the laboratory. I remember walking past them every time I went to my parents' offices...a neat row of crumpled, slightly charred, circular objects on the wall, with, iirc, a date neatly marked under each one.
Adam Savage says "Time Bandits" and I immediately thought "The Hat!?" Lol. The Gladiator Arm Guard was cool, but I really want Adam to make the Hat. :)
I would use leather mat and make it a cover for huge sketchbook, and then chronicle all the things made on the table at the time the leather was being used, from the simple blueprints to photos of complete thing or even the history of the shop.
My High School woodshop teacher had multiple enshrined pieces of lumber on the wall bearing the unmistakable rough arched kerfs that only a kickback from a table saw or radial arm saw can impart
I made this comment on the live stream but it would be super great if you could take a high-res picture of Adam’s workbench leather top. Would love to use it as a desktop background
I believe you may be able to collaborate with Ryan Nagata on that U2 flight suit. Just a thought. Also, I believe the same suit was used on the SR-71 Blackbird.
@1:30 - my dad was Technical Director and among other things taught set construction at the University of Oklahoma (at Norman) in the Rupel Jones theater, and he did that job for many years. He didn't have any screw ups hanging on his shop wall. He didn't keep any screw ups to show anyone. I know, because I was there on an almost daily basis from 6th grade through my senior year in high school, and then on a less frequent basis throughout my five years of college on campus. Maybe he should have had those screw ups on his walls, but he didn't.
I would love, ABSOLUTELY LOVE, to go on some flight, in a "extreme" military aircraft. One little, well not so little, issue.... I am quite tall, and don't think i could even fit in one.
Speaking of makerspaces… you should start your own directory of them, or even your own chain of them. I tried finding some here (SF Bay Area) and found them disappointingly thin on the ground.
Adam, I’m watching your latest stream and I love your ideas for your bench top leather, but I can’t help but feel a much better idea would be to frame it, as is, as a wonderful piece of abstract art. If it’s not something you’d display yourself, I’m sure it would be a popular auction piece to benefit one of your favorite causes. Please don’t chop up a Picasso to make a Halloween costume that you could easily replicate from scratch! Love the channel; keep up the good work!
well adam is a part of the blade runner universe already that scene he did for the last movie where he was a trader. So i would love to see him come back as like a scrap trader or something of the sort.
When I was in high school our technical drawing teacher was a retired aerospace engineer who had worked on the U2. Of course he would never tell us what he did on the project.
Adam, please before you make smonsing else out of your Workbench Tops could you make a high definition copy of it? I think it is a piece of art and it would be a nice poster.
The saved boned parts is a great idea. How about one better? Return to your sculpture days and make a sculpture out of some of them. Auction them off and benefit the grant imahara fund.
Time Bandits... Now I have to rewatch it for the 5th? time! I never toss parts I've messed up while machining because they reinforce good skills and you never know when a modified part might be needed. Table saws...yeah- we've never had a serious injury in our set shop, but only because the parent volunteers didn't get hit by the plywood that landed 40' away!
I would imagine Jamie is still disappointed he didn't get to go up in the U-2. That would be better than any flight that stays in earth's atmosphere. Adam, have you bought a ticket to go into space yet?
In regards to "Blade Runner" I was wondering if you saw the anime "Blade Runner: Black lotus"? Also as far as your lightsaber build, do you think you'll go as far as putting a crystal in it?
I would suggest you just create a toga or loin cloth out of the leather and go to the party and you can point to things on your leather and tell a story. Your costume would be "I am Adam's work bench.
You could have a bucket of screw-ups as gifts for visitors to the cave (when the global mess is past) and fans. I would be proud to own some botched part from one of your builds. Id probably even mount it on a base, make a little placard and display it proudly on a center shelf. Bonus points for parts messed up on video.
I know this vid is a year old, but if you see this comment, I'm curious the type/grade and thickness of the leather you used for your workbench. Love the idea. Thanks
Someone who pays Adam to answer questions plz ask him this. "Can you think of any one, or multiple myths that might have a different outcome if re-tested now in today's world because of advancements in technology?"

Am I the only one who would frame that leather top? It instantly said art piece to me.
That was honestly my first thought. He held it up and I thought, "I'd frame that in mahogany."
I'd frame it because he signed it, But I think Adam would want something created out of it.
FRAME THE WORKBENCH COVER!! FRAAAME IIIIT!!....(seriously though, that in an awesome wood frame would look cool as heck)

every member of tested should make a lightsaber build video, and make them very personal, bill has , norm? adam? krysten?
Since that leather piece looks like a galaxy when you hold it up. It could be just a simple wall art!
Nope, I think the French postman's bag is a better idea than the gladiator leather.
I agree. haha
The cruising altitude of a 747 is between 33,000 ft minimum, the average lying around 35,000 ft and the maximum of maybe 41,000 ft. FYI
No no, make a ‘painting’ out of your workbench cover! Just sign and frame it! It’s perfect.
Both ideas are great, but I really wanna see the postman's bag. But either way, make sure you film it!
Thanks for sharing... Props!
Adam, I’m watching your latest stream and I love your ideas for your bench top leather, but I can’t help but feel a much better idea would be to frame it, as is, as a wonderful piece of abstract art.

Have to agree with that.

I’ve been working/saving parts from my own light saber for 30 yrs.
You could save them up, then araldite them into a work of art, a giant pillar of shame!
Gladiator arm!!
Do it! Do it! Do it!
(You could even do a charity one, for a good cause...)
Cool episode ! Hope you get to build that prop. Maybe the ankle backup blaster? 👍 😃
Adam, please before you make smonsing else out of your Workbench Tops could you make a high definition copy of it? I think it is a piece of art and it would be a nice poster.
Adam you have to make the bag. Continue your daily use of the surface!
fun show, thanks
Been designing and building custom lightsabers for over 20 years. I'd love to participate!
Post bag is cool because of function potential coming from function
Ive been 3d printing a full size R2-D2 over the last 3 years. Ive tossed all my big part print fails in a corner and labeled it the pile of shame.
Success is falling down seven times and getting up eight.
Make key chains for your tested members/patrons from the leather.
when you picked up the leather, I instantly thought that would make great armor.
Based on Adams pilot said about the plains below them then they must have been flying at around twenty thousand feet ASL
Commercial airliners cruise at 35,000 feet and Adam said he was over 70,000 feet. Which is double 35,000 feet.

Why not both, gladiator postman bag 🙂
Time bandits is awesome, and I think I would rather see the bag.
I keep a bucket of my failures. It helps when I come up with an idea that seems too familiar. "Is it in the bucket?"
I think you should either frame the entire workbench top, or cut it into squares, and auction it off for your favourite charity.✌️❤️🙂🇨🇦
Yes!! I'd LOVE to see you design your personal lightsaber! Please make it sooner than later
I would imagine Jamie is still disappointed he didn't get to go up in the U-2. That would be better than any flight that stays in earth's atmosphere. Adam, have you bought a ticket to go into space yet?
In regards to "Blade Runner" I was wondering if you saw the anime "Blade Runner: Black lotus"? Also as far as your lightsaber build, do you think you'll go as far as putting a crystal in it?
when I saw the leather and you said bag,
I immediately thought of a pilot bag.
That workbench top could be cut up into smaller pieces, put into a frame and sold to fans pretty easily
As to the armor vs bag for the leather there... isn't there enough leather there to do both?
I would suggest you just create a toga or loin cloth out of the leather and go to the party and you can point to things on your leather and tell a story. Your costume would be "I am Adam's work bench.
Make note book covers from your leather table cover ?
I vote postman’s bag!
You could have a bucket of screw-ups as gifts for visitors to the cave (when the global mess is past) and fans. I would be proud to own some botched part from one of your builds. Id probably even mount it on a base, make a little placard and display it proudly on a center shelf. Bonus points for parts messed up on video.
Love time bandits 👊
As glad as I was to leave that crap base, I wish I was still at Beale AFB to meet Jamie and Adam.
Hey Adam, take a couple closeup pictures of the patch and I'll digitize it for you so you can have new patches made. :)
Norman should make a spherical map from this leather top. Would be a great planet texture. Savage XXII ^^
carefully sized and optimized cutting and that's enough leather for both...
Idea for the tabletop, cut it into sections, frame them and then sell them with the proceeds going to charity.
I vote bag
Dam id love an apron out of that leather top!!!
Please put your work shop patches on your apron. It would also let everyone know they exist and want their own
Adam what thickness is the leather for your bench top?
I know this vid is a year old, but if you see this comment, I'm curious the type/grade and thickness of the leather you used for your workbench. Love the idea. Thanks
I was trying to find it too, I remember him taking about it in a video a long time ago
Seems like it might be kangaroo leather
Someone who pays Adam to answer questions plz ask him this. "Can you think of any one, or multiple myths that might have a different outcome if re-tested now in today's world because of advancements in technology?"
Hrm, now I kind of want a leather top for my soldering station, seems nice. No clue on where to start looking, something like 30" x 36"?
i like the bag idea better
