Feels good doesn’t it? I’ve had several TH-camrs, influencers and productions print my stuff, the highlight of my career was seeing my Jurassic Park goggles on the Amy Schumer show. They took them right off my Thingiverse ^_^
What I love about watching makers like Adam is how it opens your mind to different ways to accomplish tasks. My head went straight to 'those are easy 3D model modifications and he can just print them new.' Adam's ability to just jump in and modify the parts with his tools and skills is another perfectly good solution!
I love it as I find it relaxing having it on while I work editing my photos, I wish I had the sort of skills he has but its almost as satisfying watching him achieve the results he does, although I do get green eyed at his collection of toys!
It's interesting, though, tinsee where he's at jn terms of change. I'm surprised he did this while process 4 times instead of altering the file to print to his specs.
So glad to see Adam bringing this into his shop. Just for it to be there will hopefully lead to some pretty epic creations in the near future. Great work y'all! Keep it up!!!
When doing multiples its definitely worth adding in hollows for lights, alignment pins, clips etc, its pretty quick and you dont risk messing up a one hour print with a slip of the drill :) Happy to see this tech finding its way into your brain the way you mentioned :D
Every time I watch, which is often, it never fails……. I learn a better way to do something, have an aha moment, or I learn something new. What a great maker/teacher you are!
I've been 3D printing for the last 6 or 7 years. I usually bought and then modded cheap 3D printers but 2 months ago I bought a X1 Carbon with AMS. It is absolutely amazing and I'll never be going back to a cheap 3D printer again.
Just love Adams channel it's not often you come across someone who loves all the same as you do, I'm sure there are millions but you never seem to meet or bump into anyone from your bit who is into all this kind of stuff unless they still think the stigma of building models is still a thing lol
adam savage is basically a mad scientist that does much more than science and a friggin love it, keep it up man i've been watching mythbusters and your content as long as its been out and enjoyed what you do
@@ThatVideoGuyTom for ASA i cover the front and top panels with a small blanket to keep it as warm as possible and have no warping or bad layer adhesion.
I think Adam takes the right approach for someone who’s still somewhat new to really using 3D printing as a maker. (I know he’s done it for a while, but I’m talking about depth of experience) Lots of enthusiasts know a million ways to improve prints, tweak them without remodeling them to make subsequent work easier, get faster print times or better quality, etc. but there’s SOOO many variables that it’s overwhelming for most people who don’t already know that stuff. It’s much better to let them learn at their pace, offer advice when they ask for it or suggest little tips here and there. But railing “you should have done it this way” really doesn’t encourage people to get deeper into it most of the time.
The Bambu printers are such a game changer. I've had my X1C for about a year and a half and P1S for 6mo, and they just make printing fun, reliable and pretty quick!
Adam dude just watching the joy abd excitement on yiur face from your bambu reminded me so much of how i felt when i bought mine. I was jumping around my living room yelling at my son every 5 minutes "look at this can you believe this, just look at it, isn't it awesome. I can do so much with this, what shall i print"!! Yeah he thought i was mad and yes hes probably right but i didnt care. I loved that mad crazy feeling it gave me. So much so i went out and bought a second X1C. Man i wish i had a friend like you. If you ever need a crazy apprentice im in!😂 Have fun dude!!🤘
I love the way Adam uses extremally precise machine tools for something that doesn't need that sort of precision at all. e.g. milling out the features on the print
Watching this as my Bambu Lab X1C is making parts for an ice cream machine for a local shop. Great to see you rediscovered 3D printing. The BBL X1C is amazing!
I love how you could have edited the files to already have the holes for lighting printed already open , but you instead drilled and filed them out lol . That's the maker in you and I gotta say as a fellow maker in the depths of my very soul , I love to see you haven't lost that oldschool work flow. Practical effects and props are a dying art form
Hi Adam, had a blast watching this on my TV earlier and had to comment as I loved your handmade Alice frames and motherboard, not to mention mini brass resisters on the pack, awesome. As a fellow buster, hats off for attention to detail, can't wait to see you light these. I am sure your 5th desk one will get much play time, you are right to be proud of these.
i also didn't start printing regularly until i tried out fdm printing. i got so exciting when resin became affordable, but the non-elemental cleanliness of a good quick fdm printer makes a huge difference for me
I think for someone so used to using other processes, 3D Printing is great for helping you spend time on what you want. If that makes sense. Do you want to be spending the time to build out that whole scale pack with milling whatever material? Or building it from PVC and vacuforming and cleaning all all that up? Or would you rather spend your time painting and weathering and adding effects. I think for some ppl, and sometimes Adam, they would rather use the techniques they are used to because they enjoy them and the process. But sometimes having something that gets you 80% there's lets you spend much more time doing the more desirable part of the build.
I got a printer for Christmas. I'm still struggling to get a successful print. I think I've had 2 succeed and I couldn't tell you what cause those to succeed when the others have all failed. I've watched all the tested 3d printer videos and have scoured the internet.
As always love the excitement plus using the shop tools with the new tool, game changer. Awesome as always and this was the first and best TH-cam Channel I ever started to watch, thanks for all the years :)
3d printing is the best thing to make fast and replicate with slight chances. Having a prototype fast and you can send that prototype file to the other side of the world and get it printed that day.
I actually love when it's "quiet" in the shop. You can hear all the random things kicking on and off. We need a video on "random" or better for Adam, " everyday" shop noises.
Love the Futura representation with the gluestick! If you haven't seen already Renner's original drawings for the font and alternate glyphs are really really neat :)
Glad to hear that you got yourself a printer. Can't wait to see what builds you will implament with prints. even what possible things you might use it with for future cosplays.
nice to see the flash board in use all the time now ... that was a nice build to watch ... next build make camera and lighting mounting stands that attach around your workshop and take care of hanging on to the camera lights and mics as needed ... beats knocking over of having shaking cameras all the time ... also for the stuff like the lathe film from the far side back to the work then you are out of the way and all can be seen still heck make a dolly cart with camera and light stand and a basic tool shelf to hold the stuff you need out of the shot but still need .. then it can roll to your work spot and poof instant camera spot
One thing I know that printers are great for is Greeblies!!! You keep saying you can't get enough and with supports turned on and orientations to force more of them it will also make longer prints. Find a nice benchie to print in an ' incorrect ' orientation that you can later use as a greebles just to look at the different options for supports. Even Rafts can become something else with planning and happy accidents!. Loved watching the build, not trying to detract, that said headphone cables are out there for cheap, woven cloth covered and there are some tiny RGB surface mount LEDs that could potentially fit at the working end of the proton gun. The hard part is the enameled wire to the stock end and have the LED in the barrel at that scale. Please keep sharing the progress!
Adam, I am considering getting the Bambu model you are woorking with now, so I look forwart to following your experience with what looks to be a breakthrough machine. Excited for you!
It makes me so happy to see you excited about 3D printing. And I think if you incorporate it more into your builds that’ll make a lot of what you’re doing more accessible to people that don’t have a lot of the bigger tools that you have. I think I need to print one of those proton packs with my resin printer.
Adam's watch is a Seiko SKX009, for anyone curious. It's an iconic automatic 200M diver's watch that was introduced in 1996 and led to a huge resurgence of interest in automatic watches and "divers" in particular, where it and its variants became big in the watch-modding scene. It's no longer made and has been replaced by the SRPD-series watches, which aren't quite the same, but very similar. Adam's appears to have the stock "jubilee" bracelet. It's a great "everyday" tool watch, and I'm glad to see Adam flying the Seiko flag.
Besides making 'stuff', 3D printers are awesome for making jigs. I was making a new exterminator gun for my office dalek. Had to bend the parts to a precise angle and length. Took ten minutes to design a jig and another 30mins to print, saved me hours.
Love your attention to detail on these mini packs! Even saw you putting on micro Dale Resistors! The only bit that I see you missed were mini Ion Arm rods. Can't wait to see the finished results with the electronics.
Canonically are all the proton packs totally identical? Wouldn't surprise me if different busters have some slight variations, which might be interesting to try to include :p
Lol I love that I just watched a video in which you said you don’t like using 3D printers (aside from the occasional sintered vinyl) in your shop because it is a place for you to meditatively do these things by hand.
LOVE LOVE LOVE this :) I kept wondering if there would be OD webbing and pads for the pack frames, but that may be its own video too! Off hand, I can't think of what you'd use for that... I'm sure somewhere you can get tiny webbing, maybe stitch the kidney & shoulder pads from a thin OD fabric.
Pro tip, metal deburring tools work excellent for removing “flashing” from using brims on 3D prints. Super fast and clean and less messy / effort than sanding.
As some one who has 3d modeled stuff for years, there is something so comical about putting a 3d print in a mill 🤣If it works, it works though, gotta respect Adam bringing old school machining wisdom to 3d printing
I'm wondering if he has any skills 3d modeling? I'm sure he can figure it out. Personally i would remodel the changes. but to each there own. I may make one for my desk too.
Stoked to see Adam getting into FDM printing. Resin printers are awesome but there are some things that just work better in FDM. I'm not sure about the specifics of the Bambu but with the FDM machines I own, I upgraded them with sprung steel PEI coated build plates. I don't have to use any glue or extra adhesive for my prints, and I'm able to print almost anything without a brim. Once the print cools down it pops right off.
I didnt hear what material youre printing with, but if its PLA, leave the door open on the printer with bigger projects :) Been loving my P1P so far, waiting on the bigger X1C to drop before i buy one myself. Absolute game changer of a printer
Finally 3d printing! I recently discovered SprayBond Quilt Blasting Adhesive…works way better than glue sticks. Just one quick squirt. It’s doesn’t build up residue and after a few prints it just goes away by itself. $10 for 7.2 oz. Love builds like this. A window into his ILM model making days. I tend to blend 3d printing into my projects since I don’t have a mill. Can’t wait to see what Adam does with this going forward
Now you need straps. A good place to start would be Cotswold Collectibles, I have seen ‘Nam era load bearing harnesses there in 1/6 scale. I’ve also seen 1/6 scale arcade change machines which you might need for your eventual 1/6 Firehouse… 😁
Adam, listening and watching your vids especially this one, makes me want to get back to my over hauling of my Ender 3V2 and Cr10-Smart! I had some bad heat creep when I ran them hard to get my daughters birthday goodie bags for her friends done. I had to do 9 red-eyed dragons in 5 days!
30:53 I just thought you could add a little diod to those proton beam emitter tand a little watch battery in the packs and hook em together with a little wire. Sorry.
I have 2 of these, I made a long drop poop chute with a curve on the bottom for the back that holds on with magnets and drops into a cereal box underneath. Uses much less space and holds a lot more 'poop'
I have those same Makita storm trooper guns! Well the drill has a removable drill chuck. I can put it on the little impact. Came in a pretty little metal case.
The glue stick calling for help was so unexpected! It got me laughing so hard that my wife came over to see what was going on. I'm glad that it was OK in the end! 🤣🤣🤣
3D printing has changed the way I build props, but I still go back to 'traditional' model building. A 3D printed interior cage has simplified my Star Wars Thermal Detonator prop, enabling the introduction of Arduino control of the lights and sound effects.
It’ll be interesting to see what Adam comes up with when he starts using things like heat set threaded inserts, adding magnets/material mid-print, etc.
Love it👌 I agree to 3D printing, I started with a ender 3 years ago and have a more high end in the garage now and a resin printer but I only use it for spare parts or to fix something 🤷♂️ it's all about speed and often I can build something way faster then a 7 hour print.. and I don't have the time for all the fails and fixes just for one print. But the bambu changes all that I'd say, it's a next level printer for a really good price 👌
Dude! It would be so cool to have the lights powered by a battery/switch in the gurney with contact pads on each of the pack so that when you put them on the gurney, they light up, but when you take them off, they go dark.
Awesome Seiko watch Adam! Love it with the Jubilee bracelet. I want to get that exact watch now, after seeing it on your wrist it looks like a $20,000 watch.
Adam Savage used my model as a base for a TH-cam video. This is for sure a highlight of my maker career.
I can only imagine how happy you were to hear your name man! Congrats! Its a real nice model.
Congrats! That is pretty awesome. Adam's seal of approval would mean so much for something I made.
Feels good doesn’t it? I’ve had several TH-camrs, influencers and productions print my stuff, the highlight of my career was seeing my Jurassic Park goggles on the Amy Schumer show. They took them right off my Thingiverse ^_^
Congratulations
Bravo to Josh for the glue stick edit!
He's great, right?!
😁
Agreed hilarious
Lost it at "im ok"

Big shout out to the editor! The rolling tube of whatever that was shouting for help as it fell off the table really made me chuckle... Bravo!

RC car body reamers are super slick to reaming holes in 3D prints.
So glad to see Adam bringing this into his shop. Just for it to be there will hopefully lead to some pretty epic creations in the near future. Great work y'all! Keep it up!!!
He loooooves that printer.
One hint - with the AMS always have a spool of PETG for use as a support interface.
Makes support removal 10000 times easier and cleaner.
Adam, you should 3d scan all the stuff you make and give us a virtual museum.
Oh, yes! A virtual tour of the "batcave" would be awesome!
I have several high end 3D scanners. I volunteer to do the scanning!
There's some cool "Tested" content for Oculus Quest!
@@thecrazy8888 unless it's been removed, you can go into his cave on google maps/google earth street view
When doing multiples its definitely worth adding in hollows for lights, alignment pins, clips etc, its pretty quick and you dont risk messing up a one hour print with a slip of the drill :)
Happy to see this tech finding its way into your brain the way you mentioned :D
Adam, it's incredible on how you just did those mini metal alice frame with such ease
You know when Adam is really enjoying a project when he's silent for 80% of the video.
You are so lucky to have such steady hands. It’s amazing watching you work.
Every time I watch, which is often, it never fails……. I learn a better way to do something, have an aha moment, or I learn something new. What a great maker/teacher you are!
I neeed one of these. Ghostbusters was a connection I had with my dad before he passed. Love it
I've been 3D printing for the last 6 or 7 years. I usually bought and then modded cheap 3D printers but 2 months ago I bought a X1 Carbon with AMS. It is absolutely amazing and I'll never be going back to a cheap 3D printer again.
That was absolutely awesome!! The 3D printer is like having a shop assistant building for you to add the final touches.
It's little brother the P1P has had a $100.00 price drop too.
Just love Adams channel it's not often you come across someone who loves all the same as you do, I'm sure there are millions but you never seem to meet or bump into anyone from your bit who is into all this kind of stuff unless they still think the stigma of building models is still a thing lol

I'm so thankful Norm did the X1C review, it helped me decide to pull the trigger on ordering one. Amazing piece of kit.
I get mine tomorrow. I have to figure out how to get NinjaFlex in it, as well as ABS.

Oh Lordy! That mini-shear at 19:00 is AMAZING!!
There's a lot of stuff in Adam's shop to be envious of, but I think I'm *most* envious of that Bambu printer...

It was one thing I was never sure during his time in the Mythbusters.

Adam, listening and watching your vids especially this one, makes me want to get back to my over hauling of my Ender 3V2 and Cr10-Smart! I had some bad heat creep when I ran them hard to get my daughters birthday goodie bags for her friends done. I had to do 9 red-eyed dragons in 5 days!
30:53 I just thought you could add a little diod to those proton beam emitter tand a little watch battery in the packs and hook em together with a little wire. Sorry.
I have 2 of these, I made a long drop poop chute with a curve on the bottom for the back that holds on with magnets and drops into a cereal box underneath. Uses much less space and holds a lot more 'poop'
Another awesome build. Digging the SKX009!
I have those same Makita storm trooper guns! Well the drill has a removable drill chuck. I can put it on the little impact. Came in a pretty little metal case.
The glue stick calling for help was so unexpected! It got me laughing so hard that my wife came over to see what was going on. I'm glad that it was OK in the end! 🤣🤣🤣
Glue Stick thanks you for your concern.
Sooo good. Master craftsman! Now for the next build: Short Circuit's Johnny 5! The 80's kid who could never find a J5 toy ever.
3D printing has changed the way I build props, but I still go back to 'traditional' model building. A 3D printed interior cage has simplified my Star Wars Thermal Detonator prop, enabling the introduction of Arduino control of the lights and sound effects.
It’ll be interesting to see what Adam comes up with when he starts using things like heat set threaded inserts, adding magnets/material mid-print, etc.
Very cool. Nice print, + Paint job is half the sell
I gotta quote Jack Nicholson here - Where does he get those wonderful toys? So many cool gadgets and tools i didn't even know were tools. So cool!!
Jajajajja!!! Congratulations to the editor Josh i think 👏 👏
You should try solder paste for the joints. It is used for surface mount electronics you just apply the paste that already have flux.
Love it👌
I agree to 3D printing, I started with a ender 3 years ago and have a more high end in the garage now and a resin printer but I only use it for spare parts or to fix something 🤷♂️ it's all about speed and often I can build something way faster then a 7 hour print.. and I don't have the time for all the fails and fixes just for one print.
But the bambu changes all that I'd say, it's a next level printer for a really good price 👌
Dude! It would be so cool to have the lights powered by a battery/switch in the gurney with contact pads on each of the pack so that when you put them on the gurney, they light up, but when you take them off, they go dark.
Awesome Seiko watch Adam! Love it with the Jubilee bracelet. I want to get that exact watch now, after seeing it on your wrist it looks like a $20,000 watch.
