Adam Savage's One Day Builds: Model Paint Storage Racks!
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 3 ต.ค. 2024
- Adam just received a full complement of Mission Model's premium hobby paints, and he embarks on a speed build of portable paint racks to properly store the over 120 bottles. It's the perfect example of a build that Adam loves constructing manually with the mill and table saw, even with access to laser cutter nearby. Adam can't wait to put these paints to use!

Looks to me that your next project needs to be; a Savaged library ladder system to reach all those Upper Shelves.
Hang pipe rails from above and offset from your walls of supply’s, materials, and Stuff. Build the ladder at an angle that will fit within aisle space, with wide steps and collapsable hand rail. And instead of wheels at top, large hooks to brace onto the support pipes above. Easy to move around the shop, and also tuck out of the way.
Its a crummy commercial! 🤨
Great paint! Been using that stuff for years. Heavily pigmented. Not pre thinned so you get a lot of paint in a single bottle. Use their thinner. Follow their mix formula on their site. The poly additive makes the stuff quite durable too.
Adam is this comment that I have won a prize real or just a scammer?
@@lordfrunk3471 assume any comment saying you "won" is a scam.
I like how he keeps the wooden plugs like any of us would. And like any of us, 6 years from now he'll still be moving them around thinking he'll use them some day. Then one day he will need circular pieces of wood and cut new ones completely forgetting about that bag of plugs he's been saving.
Scammer alert
Tommy2cats: I see you, too, have a shop! :-)
Yesss 🤣😂🇦🇺
They would make great joining biscuits for a small project.
for the "wooden nickels"--I remember from adolescence visiting places such as perhaps Brasstown Bald or Rock City and the gift shops had things such as weather rocks (if it's wet, it's raining; swinging, it's windy; etc.) and specialty flavor candy. One that stuck with me was a pocket-sized wooden disc labeled a "round tuit." The joke on it was "now that I have a round tuit, I can finally get around to it!" So, I think a collection of A. Savage (say, fire branded) round tuits would do very well online and/or as Patreon gifts.
My wife and I recorded my daughter’s first steps while this video was playing on the TV in the background. Adam has made his way to be forever in the family video archives.
Adam savage is just so wholesome. Hes just a humble grandpa that is a celebrity and loves to build and that everyone loves to watch.
And his one day builds do wonders for anxiety
Scammer alert
He's top of my list of people id love to have a 5 min chat over a coffee/tea/bundaberg. His ability to share from his experiences, both good and bad, is amongst the best.
Wait, he's a grandpa?
@@smzubek He's everyone's Grandpa
It's frustrating when scarcity brain kicks in and ends up setting a project back. It's nice to know that someone as experienced as Adam get's this now and again and that it's not just me! I just love these builds so much. Thanks for sharing!
Hats off to Adam for being brave enough to start the build over when he realized the 1/8" wood wasnt going to be good enough
I just love that you show all of the "day in the life of..." stuff that happens while making stuff. Then how you work through it. It's great because thats the real life of making stuff. I learn a ton from that.
I have a box of "future projects" where I store the things I come across that I will need obviously on a future project I want to do. Works a charm!
My problem is my future projects box takes up more space then my tools/supplies themselves.
I have 30 boxes of future projects. Lol. I lable them and hope...
Scammer alert
I have that, too: I call it "somewhere in my shop"!
It is so amazing and wonderful to me how after all this time building stuff he still goes "damn I love pipecutters". Just never seems to loose the awe for even the littleest of things
Re:where to store things you only have one of. Lots of clothing stores have a designated “onesie rack” for when an item is almost sold out or there’s an online return of a style that isn’t normally carried in the store. The key is to not to let it become an interim dumping ground for stuff that has a proper home. If overtime you collect enough one-off items related to a specific project you can move them to a more permanent home. Alternatively set up an area divided into sections labeled with future projects where specific tools/materials for the project will be put as you acquire them (similar to gathering ingredients for a specific recipe before you start cooking).
Thank you for showing the real process where you make adjustments or start over and for explaining your reasoning. I have ADHD inattentive type complicated by perfectionism and anxiety. I rarely ever get past the idea/planning stage…best wishes!
This is so relaxing for me. I can identify with working in the shop, doing your thing, working through the problem and deciding solutions. Making a plan, working the plan, and just talking to yourself as you go. I enjoy the sound of your shop too. I have tinnitus, so I never hear silence anymore in my day to day life. But if I can distract my brain enough, I don't hear the ringing. So while I'm watching your video and I get engrossed in it, all I hear are the sounds of your shop, and it's so quiet there, and at some point I realize I don't hear the ringing anymore, but the silence of your shop.
i like the music choices for this vid. i think it fits the vibe of tested really well
Love how he turns around looking for a laugh when he says "that's a nice rack"
I think we can all agree that if adam had a fancy shmancy camera set up and a good microphone that this show wouldnt have the same immaculate vibe. Love this channel❤

Thank you for letting us see all of Adam's iterations that he goes through to find the right design. It inspires me to keep working through all the wrong turns I make in my own designs.
I love this! I just recently made my own shelf to hold my 125+ 2 oz acrylic paints, and I thought of how Adam would be so proud of me lol. You have been such an inspiration and I have learned SO MUCH from watching you in your cave over the years! Thank you for what you do!!

I love, LOVE the fact that he opts to do things the old fashioned way instead of using the laser cutter. There's a lot more pride in a project when your math is right, your cuts are right, and it all comes together. Good stuff.
Thank you also for showing the cleaning up phase of project work.
Outstanding video and presentation.
Even if I have NO plans of building something similar to what you build in your videos, I still watch the entire thing and pretty much every video you have made.
Love your process on everything you do. You are great at explaining what you are doing and why. That is why I watch.
Absolutely love your work space and tools.
Keep up the great videos. BTW - Whenever you ask your Alexia a question, mine will sometimes answer as well. 😆
Hey Adam, been a huge fan since you rejected that reality, thanks for all the videos that kept me sane and busy during lockdown - you don't get enough praise for all the good you put out into the world, Thank you again and look forward to many more years of Adam Savage and Tested!
Scammer alert
yeah, I love how Adam can really teach us things that seems to be for a maker, but also can be useful for the wild life out there. Ima keep in mind the last quote he said as a remind to no overthink and stay calm.
"That's the thing, it feels like we're getting somewhere"
I love watching the thought processing...the mistakes...the fixes and the conversations with Alexa 😀Yeah....nice rack! Watching this makes me want to convert my backyard shed into a workshop!
This is perfect Adam. "I know, I could laser cut this." He could, and I created a similar solution using our laser a few months back.
But the joy in this channel is in witnessing Adam and crew crafting and hearing his thought process. That said, I wouldn't be bothered seeing him go through a full laser cut build for a storage solution at some point.
Adam, I love that you show the clean up process during and in the end. It teaches us to clean up and put away tools throughout the process. Those little things count. Thank you for that.
the self-control at 32:59 is next level!
Building your own organization systems is very cathartic.
Always enjoy watching Adam do his thing so cool.
Oh boy, Adam is thinking out loud again! I feel like I've accomplished something today, even though all I've done is watch Adam.
Every damn time I see Adam's shop I drool like a bloodhound and giggle like a school girl. Nice shop! I have a nice shop, but nothing compared to his. Man it just looks fantastic!!!
It's always fun when the bug wooden mallet comes out to play.
Adam, as a longtime fan I can absolutely say your channel is one of the most relaxing, postive, stem nuturing youtube channels Ive seen. from the problem solving to stories to builds to idealogy legos and podcasts, this channel is one of my favorite places on the internet to consume content on, for me personally watching your videos is one of the most relaxing enjoyable parts of my day every single time, in my eye great educators such as yourself or hank green or vsauce or neil degrasse tyson are such a blessing and are amazing to listen to and inquire from with practically infinite knowledge its really inspiring what you guys show is possible, if I ever happen to get the pleasure of meeting you in person I absolutely have a lot to thank you for Adam for being one of my greatest inspirations in life.
I love Mission Models paints! I made my own storage rack some years ago using partial circles so there's nothing to obscure the name of the colors on the bottles. Also at an angle so lifting a bottle is a bit easier.
I’ve got mine in clear acrylic shelves mounted to a wall. The shelf is marketed for nail polish bottles. Holds all my Tamiya, Mission Model, Vallejo, and misc stuff nicely! Leaves me with more desk space and they’re right in front of me on the wall.
How much would all that paint cost?
@@lewiscantplay8639 at least $1.1k retail. 210 bottles at $5.25 USD. Some of the metallics are a little more.
@@lewiscantplay8639 in the UK they are approx £5-6 each bottle they are 30ml so 3 times as much quantity as say Tamiya or almost double vallejo, so I would say priced about the same per 10ml
These are the videos that keep me coming back. I love watching him problem solve and also look into the future to what else he may need to have room for.
Now you need a paint storage rack for all of your paint storage racks! Keep up the amazing content!
I love the cleanup shots at the end. The most forgotten part of any build, but I would argue one of the most important.
Those one day builds are always so inspiring especially when contributing to the workspace.
👍
Adam, thank you. 9:45 Watching your thought process on how to organize things like shown here, past videos, and Aurikatarina's videos, I finally had the motivation to reorganize my entire room/ living space. Right now, I only have very broad organizing to where I have to rummage within the drawer. HOWEVER, that is better than trying to remember which room it's in, where it is, if it's in a tote, etc. It's been a long process, taking.... well, years but I've been trying to figure it out then started physically working on it over the past few months.
Adam Savage is a real life mad scientist, and I'm here for it.
Most of us would mark the pipe and then cut, your manic style always makes me anxious lol. 👍
I do instrumentation tubing for a living, and I was able to answer all of the decimal calculations. Finally my weird knowledge of decimals to a .0625 has paid off
I personally use Nail Polish Racks to hold my model/airbrush paints. Specifically the clear acrylic stair step style. They are cheap and work perfectly!
YES! 8 per side means that as the line of colors expands, OR you find there are colors you use more frequently, you won't have shut yourself out of the ability to adapt or expand.
Truly enjoy watching someone work that loves their craft. Very motivating! Thank you Adam!!
This process is so relatable. The thoughts going through his head are some of the exact same ones I have and it is gratifying to know that I'm not the only one who has those conflicts.
This is just what I needed. I have over 120 bottles of model paints that I need some racks for. This has inspired me to build my own.
I learn so much from watching these video adam. Thank you so much for sharing so many cool projects
As a side note I love that the method of shop movement is determined by altitude. Personally, my favorite is the Thirdman strata.
Hey Adam when you asked Alexa the math question my Alexa answered the same time yours did lol so I guess now I can say Adam savage used my Alexa 😂 Love the content and just watching your channel and You alone is therapeutic. THNKS for all the great myth busters shows and Now Savage tested. Your my Hero and idle. 👍
Will be making these on the laser cutter this weekend for my miniature/model paints :)
That’s awesome Adam good job my friend I like your show and I like your show in the old days too
This is perfect for little bottles of Angelus leather paint, too!
This video really has me thinking about how I would make my own model paint storage racks, and it's given me some ideas already.
Scammer alert
Have you considered using a Forstner bit instead of the annular cutter? You would avoid having to remove the bit every few passes.
Also, it is encouraging watching someone else suffer through miscalculations, false starts, etc.
Enjoying the content!
Adam, thank you for your inspiration in creativity!
I love mythbusters so I don't say this lightly.
For me, Savage One day builds are as enjoyable to watch as mythbuster episodes.
Long may they continue x
Inspirational,fun,clean, practical, cool, organized, beautiful. THANKS!
Nice ! I’m a scale modeller and I’m a big fan of MMP, been using them on my builds for 5 years now. Excellent acrylic paints.
Yeah! love catching a one day build early. Exiting to see what you'll make this time :)
Enjoy watching you think out loud as you work through a problem.
Paint storage is the bane of my bench. When you have over 400 individual bottles, it gets old fast. Nice to see your system and thinking behind it.
LOL "That's a Nice Rack" i saw you smile Adam !! Giggity!
Very nice. I built something similar a while back, but used clear plastic for the retainer deck (with the holes) for better visibility of lables and such.
One thing I've learnt from my own builds is that you always need more. Drawers always need to be deeper than you think, you always need more shelves than you think, etc. Padding the build out to accept extra bottles in the future is smart because you never know when they'll release another colour.
Yay, infrastructure! It's a long road, but a REALLY satisfying one to travel!
Quite the racket you got!
Thank you! For the leather... I have a box on a shelf, a big box, easy to sort through, that I put all the singles into. It's where I start my search for items that don't have a place. Stashing with sort of alike items results in the inevitable angry search... . Cheers!
you had me at "airbrush station'! can't wait for more about that!!!
Our hands (the skin) are just the best tools out there. Perfectly smooth yet at the same time grippy when needed but man, splinters just find a way in!
I really enjoyed the editing of this video. Well shot as well. Good Job!
Think I would’ve loaded some bottles into the first completed one before moving on to the rest…just in case ol Murphy was about! Sweet work!
I loved the cleanup footage. Stay awesome and thanks!
Hi Adam, I met you on Thursday at my place of work where you got to see some of the artefacts held on site. I heard you were on site filming and had to walk the building for some time to "accidentally" bump into you in our reception. Looking back on our meeting I think I fangirled some what as I didn't ask you anything at all about all the fantastic things you make on here. Mostly I wish I had asked if you wanted to see the view from our roof as you can see most of the famous landmarks of London., I would have then had the chance to chat a little more . But alas that was not to be as I felt I was holding you up, so I just said pleasure to meet you and left kicking myself for the rest of the afternoon. It was a pleasure to meet you in person and thank you for a fantastic Chanel and another wonderful look into the brain of Adam Savage at work. I don't know if you will get to see this but I felt compelled to contact you again to say thank you for all the videos and the infectious enthusiasm you show constantly Kind regards Gary.
I love watching these videos, just so nice to watch someone who has all the cool tools and using them to make cool stuff. Also I'm thinking I'll incorporate the tattoo idea into something with a customised approach or maybe having set measurements of the tattoo being certain parts of it.
Amazing content as usual. Thanks Adam
I recently switched to mission
models as my go to, absolutely love the colors and ease of use.
What makes Mission model paint better/different than artist acrylics?
@@aristotle29 pre thinned for airbrushing and I like the colors they offer. The stick really nicely to resin, plastic, and metal too and it's easy to clean up. It is acrylic, so it's a bit soft. But for my stuff that's fine.
Seeing the paint racks brought me back to my dads shop Areogloss silkspan dope in every color! (Model airplane paint at the time)
My Alexa device got the same answer as yours after you asked both of them at the same time. Glad math is math and there wasn't a discrepancy. LOL. Felt like part of the video in that moment. haha
I want to see Adam take on an ork-tober build. It's a tradition in the Warhammer 40k community on TH-cam and elsewhere to make crazy ork vehicles or models through the month of October!
Adam, I know the feeling: where to put a miscellaneous "thing" you just can't throw out, but won't remember where you put it as it doesn't have a specific place.
My solution is an Excel spread sheet! List in alphabetic order or by material, then alphabetical, then it's location, sizes, amounts, description, etc. as needed.
Then you will know, in 5 years, exactly where your quart container of wooden nickles are located in your shop!
Great build video, BTW, as diffrent types of paints storage is a problem many of us have. Thanks!
I have an old scroll saw Adam! It's from 1950s ish and is a sears and roebuck. I got it for free and it came with a few eletric motors I used for it. It works great, but I think it would be absolutely perfect for your foot pedal driven scroll saw. It is cast iron and is hefty and would look the part for that Era. It is the best one I have ever used and seen! I live only about 2 hours away from San Francisco in Merced. I have been collecting old sears and roebuck tools. I have a video about an old bandsaw on my channel aswell but not to be confused with the scroll saw I'm talking about.
They are some great paints 👍. Nice build brother! I’m actually in the middle of selling all my model stuff after 30+ years in the ultra scale arena working primarily in 1/12 scale formula one and super cars. I’m at about 8 years since my TBI and subsequent series of strokes; so I just have never recovered the dexterity to do so even remotely to the fine level I once did; that and an accompanying essential tremor kind of demand it. The great thing is that I’ve been creating/making in the woodworking /fine furniture space now for a few years (which as you imagine is also great physical and mental therapy). I’m 95/5 handtool only/power tool, so it’s also pretty safe for me to do unsupervised. I’ve sold much like I said, but also it’s incredibly difficult to recoup money out of anything but my airbrushes, compressors, selling paints by lots of 100+, and then Non-started large models. The detail stuff and 1/24 scale kits will most likely just get boxes and sent to a boys abs girls club or something like that. Always enjoy your content; the charm is that it’s a stream of thought in a build. Many content creators separate the two in videos. Stay well brother!
One thing about building a rack like this that my father learned the hard way. His was a spice rack but the same principle applies.
The longest measurement on a bottle is not the height, but the diagonal.
He built a 3 level spice rack with little railings to hold everything in place, but with those railings it's impossible to fit the tallest bottles on to all but the top shelf, as there's not enough space with those railings to fit the bottles in on the diagonal required.
Thankfully most of the bottles fit fine, but he's still embarrassed by that mistake.
Thank you
That many holes is a great laser cutter project. Can't gang them like in the drillmill, but jigging up the laser bed to take many at once, set and forget.
I've been on a bit of a Tested binge (again) and your videos are truly inspirational! In the past 3 days I got the urge to make some new handles for my beat up woodworking tools, which I did. One question came to my mind while watching though: aren't you afraid of getting paint dust on your precision tools when you spray paint in the same room you store them? I work in about a 5x5 metre room and I learned early on that if you spray paint there, the dust will get on EVERYTHING.
My solution for "where to put the scroll saw leather" is that I have a section of storage specifically for projects I can't or don't want to progress for an extended time. If a project has most or all of its pieces I store it alone in one container within that area, else I have a misc container for pieces like the leather. It's still a mess, but at least it's localized and each piece within the mess has a plan!
Oh I see your wearing the new Tom Saches shoes I love them very versatile.
Yo Adam! as always man, thank you! just got myself that Lufkin's tape measure and the nightsight black and green colour is great!
Also thanks for always being a massive inspiration and real wholesome dude
Adam i watch you almost every day and more than anything i want to see you move your shop into a giant awesome aircraft hanger or big warehouse. I know those walls are closing in on you, i can sense it.
Good job
I’ve watched your videos for a long time but today I watched with my 5 year old, for the first time. Dude loved it. He thinks you should store the leather for the scroll saw “in the garage” 😂😂😂
You sit on a throne of lies
My grandfather used to call those wooden nickels "Round Tuits".
Nicely done. Coming soon, paint station with a Paint Booth made from a pop-up changing room.
I made a habit of using those really thin Mechanix working gloves to save me a lot of those pesky hand injuries!
Oh my god this is exactly what I need. I'm up to my hoop in Vallejo, Citadel, and Army Painter paint pots!! something like 500+ pots all different sizes and dropper bottles.
That’s a nice”rack” he says smirking ever so slightly 😂
When I cut stacks of steel, even if its from the same piece of bar stock, I put a piece of cardboard against the moving jaw and then tighten that against the stack. It helps fill those variances in the material width and keeps everything tight in-between the jaws.
Adam Vs Alexa needs to be its own show :)
I really dig that style. I might make some for my mini paints; I'll swatch the paints on the side, though!
Watching this at 3am, because why not? 🤷♀️
