literally haha. i just watched the video and went to his channel to find part 2, and was immediately disappointed to see this was his last upload. hope hes doing ok
I was probably a 5 year old kid going crazy when i saw these boats and heard that "put put" noise. Ran home all excited and told my dad of a genius boat that runs on candle. I told my dad we can easily build these and sell them. I was born to be a businessman for as long as i can remember, I swear. LOL. Good stuff man. Brings back childhood memories.
I'm impressed! I remember as a child, many years ago, my father showing me how to make a steam boat, similar, but the tank had to be refilled periodically. I also remember playing with it in a tub of water, and it going so fast, when it reached the end of the tub, it crashed, emptying the candle wax, which quickly spread across the top of the water, and was gone in seconds with a big flash. So do be careful near wildlife, if using tea-lights that become filled with molten wax. The big flash, naturally fills a child with excitement, but setting fire to a water birds nest won't be such fun.
I seen that years and searched pop pop boat cartoon and now i found this comment and am sure it was Ponyo.I remember the road was flooding and a girl sea creature In a jar washes ashore and a scene with the pop pop boat
Lol. One thing that didn't make sense, is why didn't he have the water-intake tube facing forwards and the water-outake facing the rear. You would effectively triple your power, because you now have two equal forces (sucking and spitting) working for you. This current design would have the sucking work against your direction, and being close to the spitting, would create unneeded turbulence or "drag" in the water. And with the Double-Candle/Engine Pop-pop boat... why didn't you have the front engine "suck" from the nose of the boat, with the front water-outake pipe aimed towards the water-intake of the rear engine. This way the front engine can work at max optimal, and the rear one gets an extra "boost" to its performance. Basically a difference of quadrupling your power, in a perfect/theoretical setting, I know in the real-world/practical setting there would be many other inefficiencies or factors that play a big role.... but that's no excuse to engineer something well !!
I looked in his playlist and found that his video before this one was from 4 years ago! So I'm sorry, but there's literally NO TELLING when the follow-up will be. :-(
You can not decide which tube sucks and which one blows. There are no valves in the tubes so the pressure goes in and out of the tubes equally, and you definitely don't want to blow energy out the front because that would be totally against the point.
@@ekinteko There are no separate tubes. In fact, you can get away with only one tube, if you use precise machining. The idea is that the water level in the tank goes up and down, sucking and expelling water with the same force. But the expelling cycle is better propelling the boat ahead than the sucking cycle stopping it.
What the heck are you even talking about?? Did someone delete a comment or something? Whirlpool is a weird place anyway, but ... has no bearing on a pop pop boat.

If you don’t believe that, just research steam engine explosions on just trains. Then research jet engine explosions of any jet propelled vehicle. Make sure you sanitize the floor where you do you research...that way you don’t get any germs on your chin when it hits the floor.
over the years, I have made a few, I found that the thinner the metal, ie, flexible, the better it is, plus metal putty is really good at sealing the joints, apart from that, you explained it really well
When I was 10 years ago 70 years ago you could already buy such a boat in the store! unfortunately no longer available. A simple yet ingenious device that gave a lot of joy in a pond with a tea light underneath.
My father was part of the US Army occupation force in Japan following WWII and our family accompanied him beginning in 1948. The boat you are calling a pop pop boat was very popular and readily available in Japan at that time. The little boats were made from discarded US beer cans ………..I has many of these over the period and use to run my boats in the bath tub. They were very inexpensive.
Personally: If ETF I'd probably put $5k into VAS and $5k into VGS. I'm not sure whether you'd classify current market conditions as safe but if the value of the ETF remains stable the returns (Distributions) should be higher than savings account. if Savings account I'd probably open something with UBank (or another bank with similar/higher interest rate) and keep topping it up monthly to meet requirement for the higher interest rates. If you can't add any additional funds on top of the initial $10k then you should consider a term deposit (if you can get a higher rate than a savings account of course) as saving account's interest rates are generally really low without the bonus rate.
I like the fact he “named” the power tools he used, other DIY videos I’ve watched before in the past, the uploader never mentions the tools they use and leave that for you to figure out. Thanks!
pretty cool.. as a kid I had a hammer and nails. Pounded wood together to make a battle ship. The stream would drive it down and I'd chase after it from the banks. This is a whole new level. I can only hope kids of this generation can put down their phones and actually enjoy building something like this. Thank you for sharing this.

I've seen this propulsion system before ... very nice ... and it even sounds like it has a piston engine ... extremely simple a propulsion system without so many moving components that are subject to wear and that are at higher costs small or larger ... I wonder if it could be applied on a larger scale ... remote control boats or even a large boat

I played with these over 60 years ago as a little kid. I didn't see them at all for a long time. When Ebay first started up I found a couple of original ones. But I ended up buying a bunch of remakes. I have about 30. Not as an investment, I just like pop pop boats.
Legend has it that back in 2019 as he was testing his double pop his childhood nemesis Poppy McPopin who just so happened to be another pop boat enthusiast with a TH-cam following that was quickly building to rival his own arrived to test a revolutionary never before seen triple pop at the very same time, soon word had got out & all of the local township had descended to the lake to witness history, this was truly make or brake for Forrest as he had invested years of research into developing his patented angle pop motor this dedication also cost him his marriage to his childhood sweetheart. Well unfortunately for Forrest his boat was a failure, the triple pop had beaten him hands down, the following weeks saw triple pop engines on all pop boats in stores across America, Poppy McPopin was now a multi millionaire with a vastly larger TH-cam following than Forrest's, Forrest was ashamed, he couldn't cope with the shame & humiliation he had brought upon his family & mysteriously dissapeared, no trace of Forrest has been found since.......
The boiler angle plus your tubes on the boat you bought are 90% on the inside of the boat only 10% outside the boat in the water. on your wooden boat your tubes are 80% in water and 20% out. So they're cooling down faster.
TBH I've never seen a design like the one in the video, only the coil-based design for the boiler. Direct heat to a 3 turn coil copper tube mounted above the heatsource in the well of a boat hull (made from half a drink can, with the bottom pushed out into a bow) is a much simpler design and works far better. We used to make a bunch of them at a time and race them when we were kids because you only needed a pair of tinsnips (or even kitchen scissors in a pinch) as a tool.
Built this with my son & loved it! Have you tried J.B. Weld yet? I use it to build brass olive oil candles. It seals off the threading in the joints. It is heat resistant and even comes in a marine variant, that I, to be honest, have not tested yet, but sounds interesting. Thank you for sharing. Very well produced. Cheers!
The flexible plate enhances the action as well as the sound. It increases the 'displacement' of the engine, expelling more water (and imbibing more) with each 'pop'.
so a steam engine. But im fairly sure this doesn't scale well, as it relies on the sucking and pushing of water. On small scale that goes fine, but on large scale id not want to sit anywhere near a steam explosion that can suck that much water in. but you can use steam to run paddles ;P
Nekogami is right. At bigger engines the boiler will cause problems. But... what about a series of 500 little engines....? Hah, it would sound like flying with a swarm of ducks.
I was first introduced to this concept through the movie Ponyo. I wish I could successfully make a real boat big enough to transport me with this method.
Fill the tubing full of sand to prevent crimping it. But this is way cool particularly where you could see the water being pushed out the back of the tubing.
@@raymondmucklow3793 aluminum definitely won't melt at soldering temperatures. Alumiweld brazing rods would have a flexibility similar to aluminum and might be a better option than solder. I don't know anything about brass filler brazing.
@@charlesgunzelman3323 solder is like 300f to 4oo f aluminum isnt it like 800f i was thinking more along the lines of the thickness of the aluminum. If ya have ever burned one it heats very quickly then blackens and flakes.
Still no updates? Would like to see more. Im planning on making my own using a 3d printed boat and a monotube copper boiler powered by a small butane torch.
what we don't know, is that the double engine Pop-Pop boat, actually opened up a rift that day on the lake he went to test it on. Pulling him in to the dimension where genius ideas are used for everyday purposes. 3yrs later he's still there, and we're left pondering where he went and why there's no PT. 2.
You think we could rescue him? I need a pt. 2. I'm itching for it. I want it. I NEEEEEEED IT. HELP ME RESCUE HIM FOR FUCK'S SAKE!!! HELP ME RESCUEEEEEEEEEE HIMMMMMMMM!
Enjoyable and fascinating. But I can't help pointing out that wind on open water is a feature that can replace the candle and boiler, while creating just as much endless tinkering opportunity. Thanks for sharing.
my grandfather used to make these for us kids back in the 50's.. I had forgotten all about them.. cool now I am gonna make some form my grand kids.. Well it is almost 4 years again.. I wonder how it all went
That's so cool it actually sounds like a real fishing boat with Diesel motor,,,i wish I knew about this when my profile picture was taken,we couldn't effort toys and stuff atleast not anything using batteries but this is much cooler than a battery driven toy
It is a very simple heat engine. The tubes and boiler are primed with water. Then, the candle heats it up and turns it into steam, forcing it out the exhaust tubes. As the chamber is emptied, the boat is pushed forward by the steam exhaust, creating a tiny negative pressure system in the boiler.

Haha I was just thinking about doing a radio controlled boat when you showed yours :D
it seems to have been nearly 3 years. LOL
Such suspense!
HE LIVES!!!
I had a few of these boats(made in Japan) in the 50's. I've wanted another ever since..(never grew up.)
This pop boat was one of my favourite toys during my childhood.
🙏
Maybe the RC Pop Pop boat was the friends we made along the way.
9 months later and we are still waiting for the follow up video
massive boiler explosion, there were no survivors
Furry....
I want to build one of these big enough for me to ride across a lake with. Can it be done?
Hrmmm with the right tool and material.....yes you can.....maybe...
so a steam engine.
But im fairly sure this doesn't scale well, as it relies on the sucking and pushing of water.
On small scale that goes fine, but on large scale id not want to sit anywhere near a steam explosion that can suck that much water in.
but you can use steam to run paddles ;P
Nekogami is right. At bigger engines the boiler will cause problems. But... what about a series of 500 little engines....? Hah, it would sound like flying with a swarm of ducks.
Adjcent a pop-ular question. It’s Pounds per second by Volume per Pop x delta t (outlet-intake)
I was first introduced to this concept through the movie Ponyo. I wish I could successfully make a real boat big enough to transport me with this method.
Fill the tubing full of sand to prevent crimping it. But this is way cool particularly where you could see the water being pushed out the back of the tubing.
So you used your heroin spoon for scientific use....nice
Bro I said the same thing..... His AA meatings got creative with unused heroine spoons🤣😅
captkurk357 😭😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
shit i gotta use it for somethin
And why not solder joints of (boiler ?),instead using epoxy ?.
I would use Acid core solder, should work great.
Prolly because aluminum so thin gets brittle or melts who knows it only took 4 years for this videos.
@@raymondmucklow3793 aluminum definitely won't melt at soldering temperatures. Alumiweld brazing rods would have a flexibility similar to aluminum and might be a better option than solder. I don't know anything about brass filler brazing.
@@charlesgunzelman3323 solder is like 300f to 4oo f aluminum isnt it like 800f i was thinking more along the lines of the thickness of the aluminum. If ya have ever burned one it heats very quickly then blackens and flakes.
@CryptoCracker triggered much.
great video, will try it, watch the epoxy though, you can get serious allergies from it.
Still no updates? Would like to see more. Im planning on making my own using a 3d printed boat and a monotube copper boiler powered by a small butane torch.
This brings a smile on my face...
*THIS IS CRAZY COOL!!!*
100% Random! but that thing is pretty damn awesome.
Jesus Murphy I thought I was seeing things when his popped up
The mere fact that you call it pop pop tells me you are not ready for it.
I'm surprised i never heard of these. It's such a cool elegant design.
what we don't know, is that the double engine Pop-Pop boat, actually opened up a rift that day on the lake he went to test it on. Pulling him in to the dimension where genius ideas are used for everyday purposes. 3yrs later he's still there, and we're left pondering where he went and why there's no PT. 2.
You think we could rescue him? I need a pt. 2. I'm itching for it. I want it. I NEEEEEEED IT. HELP ME RESCUE HIM FOR FUCK'S SAKE!!! HELP ME RESCUEEEEEEEEEE HIMMMMMMMM!
Who else immediately thought of Ponyo?
Travis Peterson that’s why I kinda remember something on this vid
That's the entire reason I clicked on the video
The Anime Fanbase yeah me too I always wanted to know how dies it work
That anime is the reason i'm clicked this video
Bruh I got flashbacks from watching this vid
Back again!!
4:23 AM I must be dreaming....
Loving the sound of this little thing
Enjoyable and fascinating. But I can't help pointing out that wind on open water is a feature that can replace the candle and boiler, while creating just as much endless tinkering opportunity. Thanks for sharing.
Who watching 2023
I think you mean 2024 right? lol
2024
2024
2028
I watched this bros videos from 11 years ago... I think he died in a car accident though
It’s soda not pop
“Change my mind”
I didn't even know what soda was till I was like 8 because I live in Michigan and my parents always said pop
Its bad for you. "Change my mind"
@@evanmurphy6640 I don't wanna change your mind
It's a coke, not soda. Lol
Who watching in 2024?
HEY ITS BIN 3 YEARS! WHERE'S PART 2!?!?
you gotta continue this cool project!
Learn the difference between _bin_ and _been_
Awesome! I was like "I would totally make this thing RC.
I really just stumbled upon a great video and saw it was made 9 months ago so I was looking for part 2 and this is the only video
I'ma just subscribe to him just for the video
my grandfather used to make these for us kids back in the 50's.. I had forgotten all about them.. cool now I am gonna make some form my grand kids.. Well it is almost 4 years again.. I wonder how it all went
That's so cool it actually sounds like a real fishing boat with Diesel motor,,,i wish I knew about this when my profile picture was taken,we couldn't effort toys and stuff atleast not anything using batteries but this is much cooler than a battery driven toy
It is a very simple heat engine. The tubes and boiler are primed with water. Then, the candle heats it up and turns it into steam, forcing it out the exhaust tubes. As the chamber is emptied, the boat is pushed forward by the steam exhaust, creating a tiny negative pressure system in the boiler.
It's like a pulsejet for boats. Neat!
