Adam Savage's One Day Builds: Star Wars Acrylic Paints Rack!
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 14 พ.ค. 2021
- Adam adds a very special set of acrylic paints to his workshop: Archive-X's line of paints designed to exactly replicate the colors used in painting the studio scale models for Star Wars and other ILM modelshop projects. These are hues that are very familiar to Adam's sense memory of working at the ILM modelshop, and he spends today building a display and storage rack for this awesome collection.

hi Adam, thought they were old coca cola bottles, lol
Nail polish "tools", like shelving for nail polish bottles(in clear acrylic), small and large carrousels, handy trolleys; all fits right in for displaying miniature paint bottles.
With this you can see all at once.
Don't get me wrong, building stuff is fun, but a clear nail polish bottle rack makes so much more sense as you see the entire bottles
It needs to be painted black and have Star Wars decals added. :D
Adam Savage what brand of jeans you wearing? And style?
To have Adam Savage do a one day build to properly respect and utilize something you sent him.. my mom would be so proud of me
Just a bit! I love that Adam's reaction to Guy's obvious great efforts was "these deserve better than my dingy little cubby space... I must craft something worthy!"
You are worthy
This should be pinned...
*Proceeds to send Adam my shrunken head converted to bobble heads collection*
Time-lapsing through the drilling but showing the vacuuming in real time was the absolute right call.
The sheer number of ways, to make money based on Star Wars....is just mindblowing to me.
Not to mention all the many ways to lose money on star wars.
Hmmm, KK might argue with you on that point.
You have to wonder why a science fiction kids show based on old TV westerns is so popular. But it is. Maybe it's popular for the same reason the old TV westerns were popular. Just occurred to me.
they will put it on anything i did enjoy my star wars paper towels tho
I understand Mr Lucas esq took his fee for the franchise as a percentage of the merchandising revenue. Smart move dude!
FINALLY! You said out loud what I've tried to explain to people about myself... I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR... SO I NEED MY WORKSPACE TO ACCOMMODATE THAT I DON'T KNOW WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR!!! Thank you Adam for explaining it so perfectly! ❤️😎
Adam - "lets drill a hole."
Universal tool envy begins.
That mill makes me cry every time I look at my crappy little pillar drill!
I have a better than average shop and still envy him. The one area his shop far outclasses my garage though is how much storage he has.
he keeps trying to talk me into a mill every time I watch his videos
haha, YES
Dude, I would give anything to spend a day or two in your cave. You are a very blessed individual, and the envy of every tool geek alive.
I know what you mean, mate. Some time ago I switched from porn sites to here :)
Every time I hear someone say Thelo Green I think of Bob Ross :D
Speaking of panting... will we ever get to see any of your dad’s paintings?
Phthalo Green
Adams dad and Alec steels dad on a chat show. golden.
My mind immediately went to Phthalo Blue.
Talking of panting, damn that hill was steep.
For those that have the need and the money but not the time and the tools, enter "spice rack" into your search. While not as perfect as Adam's, they are good and workable. The round stack shelves in the paint cabinet looks like it was once a spice rack. Don't blame me if you end up saying "No Honey, I don't know what happened to the kitchen spice rack".
Amazing idea and you can get one one a wheel thing...
Nail polish shelves/holders also work great and are very affordable.
yes thats what i used at one point years ago...
The round shelves are a painter 80 carousel I believe .... Have 4 myself but now that i have so many paints they arw more cumbersome than helpful
@@keithwilson6939 yeah that’s what I found so I have multiple sized holes for all the paints and then other smaller holes for brushes/paint-pens that are messy...and a spot for other tools
Thank you so much for making a video on these. Guy is a very good friend and I'm so proud of him making this possible and getting a slot on Tested, insanely cool. Just painting some Y wings in these paints and I know you're going to love using them.
I love to randomly sing as I work also that is why a radio must be on in the workshop to give toon inspiration. Cheers, I love this Channel and Adam you are the very best.
I love the fact Norm left in the cleaning up the wood shavings and dust. I feel like he knows us. and how important it was. I feel better knowing its not messy.
Watching Adam working the mill around 11:00 in here, he reminds me of the Wizard of Oz, working all the pulleys and levers to create the illusion.
I thought of the train driver in Polar Express. Check out the drifting scene
Like The Doctor flying the TARDIS
That signing at the end was classy. Also I think it's funny how many different variants of white there are in this set!
Only three whites in the set. Reefer, Antique and Alliance.The other hues are the many greys ILM used in its Floquil form.
MANY people don't realize there ARE variants OF white. I commissioned a cake for my birthdays (in January) and I challenged them to do the cake in variants of whites. They did not get the idea.
Love this! I actually received my Archive X acrylics about a week ago! Slowly building a studio scale Millennium Falcon.
Isn't studio scale like, 4 feet?
@@Mike_Jones1980 5 Feet :)
I can't begin to comprehend how I existed by using lowly Testors paints during youth model building.
To be fair, the modelers working on Star Wars back in the day didn't have much better. These seem like they are trying to recreate that old feel.
Always begin with the cheapest materials, when you feel you've gotten good enough at your craft to "deserve" the more expensive stuff (even if the more expensive stuff is still the cheap stuff, just not the cheapest stuff) and you go into the art supply store, you feel like you're buying an Aston Martin - just the best feeling!
Fondest memory as a child. Dad teaching me how to thin testers, clean brushes, apply those decals.
........ dont feel bad i do mini painting and now the market is crazy i own 6 brands of paint that i can count just from where im sitting at my desk
13:00 next 1/4 day build : a 3D printed clip to hold the vac hose to the milling machine.
Adam Savage’s One Day Builds has to be the best series on youtube. Cheers for doing what you do Adam!
I have been using AX for two years now and my work has never looked better! Guy is a great friend of mine and I’m so proud of him to have gotten this far with his paints. Good to see you have these in your very capable hands Adam!
That mill is a true thing of beauty.
My favorite thing in these is watching Adam vacuum or clean or do all the little setting up and putting away tasks. It is suuuuch good reinforcement of habits I struggle with. I'm a mess, but I have aspirations of cleaning as I go cause it's a sign of a pro!
what a timing. just this morning i looked at all my acrylic paints and thought i should get something very similiar.
Neat now i can just copy it from adam :P
Excellent! If you build one, please share a photo on Twitter and tag @donttrythis and @testedcom; we'd love to see it!
Archive X paint is a phenomenal product I'm delighted they are in your hands now, cannot wait to see you paint a model again
I love how this turned into a build. These are my absolute favorites.
You’ve made me rethink my shop space and organization. I enjoy your infrastructure builds the most.
This was incredibly satisfying to watch!
0:21 "...acrylic paint is not cheap..."
Me: "MY friend, let me introduce you to Apple Barrel."
Apple Barrel and the like are good for larger things without tiny details. I know it's popular among the tabletop wargaming community for painting terrain, but generally not used for the miniatures themselves. Mostly because the pigments in those craft store acrylics aren't consistently ground as fine as hobby paints are.
@@JMcMillen theyre still the cheapest type of paint...
@@JMcMillen Base coat with (some) cheaper paints, finish with quality. It's all about where and how you use it.
Oh gee yh. I still remember some of humbrols early acrylic paints that made minis "soapy". Ofc since they have developed the range and the acquisition by Hornby will also help. Their pigments are good for the price point.
Nerd!
anyone else hoping adam does a one day build star wars kit using this paint?
I'm glad to see the forstner bits make just as big of a mess with the vacuum as they do without. Makes me feel better about never setting up my vac when using them.
Never thought of cutting a housing/dado joint with a bandsaw before, but it worked. You'd chop the waste out with a chisel for sure but the fun thing about plywood is you can do it in one hit of the mallet, as Adam elegantly demonstrated.
For years I have been watching these videos and buying things Adam recommends, and then today I see Adam wearing a Suunto core the same watch I wear. Brought a huge smile to my face.
The camera being mounted to the drill bed was strangely satisfying.
That is the motherload of paints! Those are the best and what a brilliant build to store them all. Well done.
I love Adam's philosophy of "I need to see everything" in shop design, something I'm trying to mimic as I reorg my own.
Reefer White?! As in Floquil Reefer White?!!! They recreated Floquil colors?! AWESOME!!!
I too love a forstner bit, they just do a job that you can bodge another way, but they do it elegantly and quickly. Warm fuzzy feelings!
I got these paints for my Star Wars models. It’s great to have the actual colors ILM used. I follow a few builders that build Star Wars studio scale models. And these paint are accurate for them.
32:48 that moment when you realize that you were about to say "Reefer is great!" and imediately start specifying that you are talking about the paint colour.
Yeah, Adam should stick to building and shut his mouth! He should build what he is told to, and stop yapping...
@@GardenGuy1943 oh bless you, you sweet summer child. You must be new around here. 😂
Hey Adam! Just wanted to let you know that you are my hero!!! I love all of your stuff and you've inspired me to make :)
Great dad joke 😂 "they're Buenos notches" 😂😂😂
I love puns and that even got me groaning. 👍👍
That was a 10/10 dad joke, best I’ve heard all week!
I love the sounds of impacts
I worked at a Michael's for about 4.5yrs and one of my favorite things to do was working the fine painting inventory restocking all the oils and acrylics.
I just loved looking at the beautiful colors they'd sample on the paint tubes/bottles, and my absolute favorite pigments were phthalo blues & greens, so beautiful and cadmium red too!
I love this build! because I also have the acrylic Archive X paint too!! So going to give a variant of this rack a go. Adam you are going to LOVE these paints!!!
Since I can’t travel far, no gas here on the East coast, it was really nice to see a great one day build. I had designed an air brush paint storage system but I like this better. It is more practical and portable. Also what also made it really special was while watching I drank a Bundaberg Ginger Beer. Thanks Adam!
That mill is gorgeous, I love the satin finish.
A one day build in one half day! GREAT!
So awesome! Gonna order all these because this is what I’ve wanted since I wasn’t able to buy floquil anymore for my model railroading needs!!!!
Love these videos. I love their slow pace when compared to so many other "build" videos we see on TH-cam. As for the build itself, great job considering the time it took. Nitpick: I would have made the sides go up 2 or 3 inches higher so that when you grab the handle, your fingers have ample clearance and won't touch the tip of the bottles.
Adam every time I see you using that milling machine and you start cranking those wheels in unison at such a quick pace. I'm reminded of "the man behind the curtain" in the Wizard Of Oz. Without the green smoke, flames & voice changing microphone. LOL
Is Adam never gonna acknowledge the fact that he got a new milling machine. We need a show and tell for it! :-)
it's only a vice upgrade for the mill, and he did.
Adam, yet another thing I didn't know I needed to buy after watching one of your videos! This is awesome, thanks so much for another Star Wars video! :) Cheers from Upstate New York
Adam in previous video: I’m never using LDF or MDF again.
Adam now: LDF is perfect for this!
I dont remember that vid. What was wrong with XDF?
@@user-fk8zw5js2p th-cam.com/video/8DkBLbQ1WE4/w-d-xo.html
Not a thing. Adam just mentions that he's sort of grown past in in his creating process as his skills have progressed and that he just doesn't reach for it as much (if ever, , but here he is using it once again!) anymore.
I've linked the video. He was doing a clean-up and organization of his wood, foam core, and misc. sheet metals etc. rack that are usually behind him in the cave.
Adam is the only person I know that will build a spice rack and precision it to within 1.5/1000ths of its life.
The paint rack looks great nice job !
I have been using slide out spice racks that I picked up from Amazon they work so well.
the best line of the day.....I was just cleaning up these notches....They are Buenes Notches......... ROFL!!
We should do a *Dad Jokes* shirt.
i have a small rack that i can put different paint bottle types in when i work out what im going to use for the job i then have all that paint etc for that specific job so i know what ive used...the worst is when i used to pack all my stuff away in to 1 tool-box...was chaotic to say the least!
keep doing what you doing Adam..you are an awesome inspiration to me!
Now we need a one day build where Adam builds a Bandai star wars kit and paint it using these paints!
You were very amusing today. Buenos Notches!
14:19 I love how that vacuum does absolutly nothing :D
Great idea however to drill holes for the paints. Got some nice ideas from this video!
"Buenos Notches" needs to be merch!
Huh, one of their colors is 1975 Southern Pacific Armour Yellow. I never thought about it but it would make sense that a lot of the colors used on the original models were model train paints. Probably the much coveted Floquil paints.
Edit: Oh you even mention Floquil near the end.
damn the timing.. i have been planning my own paint rack since i got into 40k recently and.. yeah finding the right paint when they are all on a shelf bunched up is a nightmare. i am inspired!
I've seen some specialized paint before but this stuff takes the cake.
34:31 "A fine addition to my collection," you could say.
"Buenos Noches!" I laughed way too hard at that.
I love the pneumatic chuck sounds on your mill, very Steam Punk
Watching sawdust get vacuumed up is so satisfying!
Very very neat
I’ve been researching ideas for a similar build and I’m really interested in that LDF you used, never seen it before. Thanks for the ideas.
I got into a kickstarter for a really big set of minis, and part of what came with it all was a bunch of paints. I wanted a way to see the labels of all those jars too, and I didn't have much in the way of skills or tools to make anything. So, I went looking for something I could repurpose into paint shelves, and I found these three tiered shelf spice racks that were designed to go in a cupboard and swivel out so you can get at the spices easily when you want them. I bought a couple, screwed them to a board, and they work great.
Even those of us without the ability to build something from scratch can have some fun coming up with a creative solution.
I'm so glad I'm not the only one who has issues with chip collection from forstner bits
brilliant video
Very cool, I have to buy one for my paints 👍🏻
you know you watch allot of Tested when your 2 year old walks up and asks "hey Mom are you watching Abum Sabbage?" lol!
ADAM! i have the very same problem, i never know what am i looking for among my stuff, i just know what i need to solve. i love your brain!! hi from Chile
I concur, reefer is indeed excellent
Oh man, that look on Adam's face when he missed the brush in the trashcan.... hahahaha, Priceless! That was great. :)
When I have bought paints for models I put a white sticker on front and bit of the paint to see the colour and how it looks when dried.
I usually just put a drop on top of the lid.
yes please show the vacuuming of the milling machine more. so satisfying
you know, sometimes it's the little things...watching your key chuck retract with your cable retractor so you don't look the damn chuck...BRILLIANT! Filling that away for when I get a drill press one day!!
So Adam - About the new mill... When are we gonna see a show and tell? :)
Those are perfect to put in a spice rack
Me: *Nervous that Adam will injure himself on one of his power tools*
Adam: "Ok, I'm just going to cut the piece of pipe, where my thumb is, with the bandsaw"
yeah ... I was like "you're doing what to your thumb now ?" ...
I'm in constant fear the latest video will be his last.
Me exactly. And the worst of it is, he has form (UK for "previous convictions", probably from horse racing slang).
Yep, and the sander was just running away being him already, lol
@@gerardvila4685 I learnt something new today, thanks
Fun fact: The Swedish name for "The X-files" is "Arkiv X".
Thanks for that mate 👍
You have given me a great idea to make something to put all my tattoo inks in.
Bloody great mate😜
I know exactly what you are talking about "I don't know what I'm looking for, so I need to see everything at once."
I have that problem in my small workshop too.
Nice new mill
Cheers Guy! 😀👍
very cool video. I have just placed an order for these paints from archivexpaints.
May the force be with you
👍🤠🇨🇦
Nice build... you know... I think we share the same affliction of not knowing what we want, and need to make a system to see them all at once for "first-order retrievability" I draw a lot of inspiration watching you do shop infrastructure projects!
I should build something like that for my 'Vallejo' Acrylic Paints!
Adam - their are some fantastic 3D print files for paint holders free online for those types of bottles. I redid my whole paint storage using them.
Need end caps for that handle 😉
Because if so that’s amazing
Please show us how you use these paints too Adam!
Nice job. I wish you had Star Wars themed the display.
Excelente! É o que estou precisando, obrigada.
I just use a old wood spice rack for my air brush bottles.
