Adam Savage's One Day Builds: Drafting Tools Sorting Drawer!
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 23 ต.ค. 2020
- Adam has been showing off his collection of drafting tools, including angle finders and circle drawing templates. It made him realize he needed a better sorting and storage solution to keep these tools in good condition and still be easily accessible when he needed them. Today's build addresses that: a workbench-mounted flat drawer that organizes and knolls out these beautiful tools. And of course, it's going to be made out of hot glued foamcore!

Take picture when all in place then print out and cut out and stick in place
"Chicken and egg" Comeon Adam! You aughta know the answer to that riddle... the Egg clearly came first, but laid by something that wasn't a chicken!
The real question then is... which one's the egg?
Is that where the nickname Stud came from? I mean, you would have to be a stud of a man to carry that thing around...
DOUBLE YOUR STORAGE Adam:
Cut the TOP half of the BACK of the drawer out (you’re using less than half the height anyway.)
Make a SECOND drawer from 1/4” ply and NEST it ON TOP of the FOAM core but INSIDE the FIRST drawer usinng a SECOND set of sliders mounting them BETWEEN the Interior of the Original Drawer and the exterior of the second drawer.
Then open the first drawer and you can slide the TOP (second drawer) back to expose the bottom drawer.
Voila! 2X storage.
Cursing is fine... but you need to have a reason, not just every 2nd word.
Oh, Adam... this is a classic case of looking all over the world to find something that you always had with you, but didn't recognize it.
You've been building a Studley toolbox for years. This very video showcases that ongoing work. Your entire Cave is a Studley toolbox.
But you've taken things a step further than Studley did, and made your toolbox large enough to fit the most flexible and adaptable tool of all - the maker himself.
Just keep doing what you're doing.
I know you don't mean it but you make it feel like he's making a casket.
That's so right -- the WHOLE cave is a Studley toolbox....amazing.
@@TravisFabel why did this make me laugh 💀 noo
That sounded like a toast Adams' best man would have made at his wedding.
That was poetic, I loved that :)
Adam not realising his whole workshop is as amazing to us as the Studley toolbox is to him 🙂
Yes.....a life size version of the Studley tool box.
Jim Kingshott had a a small filled workshop and gave the impression to live and work in his toolbox
if the pandemic goes on long enough, and Adam keeps sorting his workshop in one day builds, his shop will complete the metamorphosis into a workshop sized Studley Toolbox that has already begun
Adam is going to have the most organized workshop in the bay area by the time we're all released from lockdown.
Had to look that one up. www.google.com/imgres?imgurl=upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/9/99/Henry_O_Studley_Tool_Chest_Open.jpg&imgrefurl=en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_O._Studley&tbnid=lGKudejMV3iEoM&vet=1&docid=j33bLoZUkQdCAM&w=299&h=333&hl=en-us&source=sh/x/im
Having grown up watching Adam's content for nearly 2 full decades and knowing full well his grasp of the English language and that he typically chooses not to curse on camera really does make it all the more special and gratifying when he actually does. I really felt that "Holy $hit, that is satisfying".
Adam: has a bespoke drawer of high precision drafting tools
Also Adam: always only ever uses a Papermate Sharpwriter and not a drafting pencil
Being fifteen and having Adam give me a lesson on cursing was great, and the studley toolbox is gorgeous
As another 15 I agree
Being an Uncle of a 15yr old, I'll have to send this to him for a lesson 😜 and I'm glad you guys are watching, I'll tell him he's not the only one
That's awesome guys! Glad yall are so young and willing to learn!! I'm a 24 yr old woman and I enjoyed!
youre a drawer
@@unglemergy whah?
“Don’t curse around adults” love it
Me too. Teaching kids that there are times you can curse and times you can't and how to know the difference is way smarter than trying to force them to never curse.
I agree its best to not curse at all
Curse words are just words. We invented the words and then decided thats a bad word lol its kind of ridiculous when you think about it.
The skill is in being able to not swear in circumstances where it's inappropriate. If you want to decide "Screw it, I say what I like", then fine, if you're an adult, you can do that. But you need to be able to choose not to swear. Otherwise, those naughty, naughty words will pop out when you least want them. Want to be able to make it through a job interview without cursing? Then you better hope your parents taught you how to keep it clean.
@@kallisto9166 just keep it clean all the time and you don't have to weary at all
I hired into Boeing as a drafter in 1980 (Retired in 2019). Our drafting tables (Mayline) were designed to be set in rows and columns so that the front of your table provided the drawers and table space for the guy in front of you.
This included a 4' wide shallow drawer for all your plastics, or for drawings as needed. The work top was 84x42 and tilted, so all storage was in the base. The top had a full length pencil tray, and our ink pen humidor clamped on the edge of the top.
No drafting anymore, but every engineering office still as a couple of those scattered around to lay out check prints. I left board-drafting behind in 1992, but I always enjoyed part of it (except changes, all that erasing and re-doing).
There is no better feeling to a maker /builder than looking at a job well done with humble pride thinking 'I made it that'!
The cherry on top, when is functional & it makes your life easier while looking great doing it.
Form & function baby!
For those interested in the book Adam mentions about the Studley Toolbox, it's called:
Virtuoso: The Tool Cabinet and Workbench of Henry O. Studley.
Published by Lost Art Press.
@@SnoDawg if you Google it, you can get it from Lost Art Press directly for like $60 USD.
27:41 - Never in the history of the English language has phrase "holy shit" hit harder 🤣 I felt the satisfaction with Adam in that moment!
Did not realize we were in for a poetry recital. Adam never ceases to amaze.
I came here because I wanted to see what kind of over-complicated yet sophisticatedly beautiful method Adam could come up with in a drafting tool sorting drawer. Instead, I got a lesson in philosophy and the meaning of life for a maker. I cant say I am disappointed.
Through much of my childhood, I adored mythbusters. It was just the greatest show. I, like many other kids in america, said "Thats what I want to do when im older!" Because who wouldn't want to blow stuff up for a living?
Today, I turned 20 years old and am in my second year of college pursuing a degree in engineering. I can confidently say that Adam and the rest of the mythbusters played a decent part in my choosing engineering as a path. And today, I still look on Adams content here and say to myself "that's what I want to do when I'm older". Just to see Adam's version of the Studley Toolbox that is his workshop, to see the dedication that Adam puts into his work, the care for his tools and his craft, is truly awesome. This video is just as inspiring to me now as any episode of mythbusters was to me as a child.
You may not have made everything before you obsolete, and you may not have changed everything after you, but I think I can confidently say that you have substantially impacted many, many people in this world through your work and content over the last nearly 2 decades.
2:20 Adam being Steve from Blue's Clues: "Where do we have the space for a drawer? Could that be it?" That's quite funny xD
Exactly what I thought about as well.
“The inevitability of a perfect object is an illusion.” Now THAT should be on a shirt, with a well laid-out knoll underneath.
Unrelated thought: Is that what Martin is trying to do with his MMX? Ummmm,
@@peterkelley6344 I think you are on to something there Peter. BTW.... Adam(Tested), Martin (Wintergatan) and Simone Giertz are my top three chanels, and I would love to see those three come together in a one day build.
@@lbdahl66 I have encouraged Martin (twice) to track down Adam Savage to do the shipping cases for the MMX. Adam has experience with shipping metal things back and forth the Atlantic; so i would assume he (Adam) could deal with designing an eight case shipping set for Martin. Their humor is slightly different, but they would certainly like each other as makers, and designers.
I will need to acquaint myself better with Simone Giertz.
Make it into a shirt! I'll buy it! 😆
Alternatively "The illusion of the perfect object is inevitable"
The idea that something you made/make can be seen as magic is something I’m currently experiencing. I’m crocheting my first cardigan because for years I was too intimidated to do it. Then I’m like “if not now, when?” And it’s turning out great! I’m constantly excited to see it come together and the fact that it’s essentially a bunch of knots in a string of yarn is like magic to me. I’m excited to make more!
I just love the end discussion Adam had with himself expressing his satisfaction. "Ho, you got some drafting tools?", "Well, yes i do!"
Every time he does a tour of his shop, I end up going "oooo...I need that"
I've actually realized because of him that the projects for me for the next several months is not so much using all the tools I have for projects but rather doing projects of making my tools more organized and accessible.
I had this huge problem where I would take out a bunch of stuff to be able to get all my tools out for a project, because I have a lot of specialized tools that I don't use often.
He's making me rethink the whole way I store everything in the garage.
I’ve been fighting the urge to get an impact driver - DeWalt of course. Lol
@@MrJuju69 I'm constantly reminded that I have Adam Savage enthusiasm, but not Adam Savage money 😆
@@TravisFabel Same here. I keep moving things from here to there and back... mainly because I keep "I use that more... let me move it here". At least my peg board is relatively done.
@@fireeatersexpress8475 his enthusiasm, brother, is not a bad problem to have 😉
I love that opening. "I don't want to go anywhere, or do anything!" stated with the appropriate level of frustration and/or petulance that is amusing, not whiny. "I don't want to adult today, so I'm going to play with my toys!"
MY 9 yr old LOVES to watch you, he is a huge fan. He is definitely a maker. Thank you for being awesome!!
I love that you brought the Donne poem up. One of my favorites. My wife, who is also a maker, made a ferric chloride etching of a compass with the poem hand-engraved in the metal. So cool.
The quote at 20:24
“The mark of greatness is when everything before you is obsolete, and everything after you bears your mark.”
- Dave Chappelle
The label should say "drafting tools" and should be "drafted," as in a mechanical drawing of the letters... Center and reference lines, subtle dimensions of the letters, etc. That would be cool. At least it's something I would do. I generally don't know if the things I do are cool until someone tells me. Just throwing out my version of a fun idea.
maybe with a bit of an exaggerated blue print aesthetic too. considering mythbusters used drafted drawings and blueprints as an aesthetic motif that could be really cool.
@@themistermaniacal Adam certainly has enough of that blue marking lacquer to go 'blueprinted'
Must use the Golden Ratio Calipers in drafting this label.
Agreed.
That's a novel idea, but it doesn't feel like him. He should just get a marker and write it free hand like most of his other labels.
Adam: "Drawers are where things go to die!"
Also Adam: *Is completely surrounded by drawers*
As a helicopter mechanic with a big ole tool box with a bunch of tools that like to move around I applaud this build and will be using this straight forward technique for my messy doors. THANK YOU!
Seriously Adam's attention to organization and passion for his workshop, his tools and "a place for everything and everything in its place" saying is just infectious. As I look around my office and just wish I could bring Adam in to consult on organizing and building. I'm in awe of the lifetime experience that has led him to share such a workshop playground with all of us stuck in quarantine.
Thanks, Adam! You introduced me to foamcore and now I have my own foamcore dividers inside my drawers.
Regards,
Etna.
You almost lost me! What a grand toolbox. And THEN I found his Workbench! What a sad mortal I am, never dreaming of such grandeur!
Even when it is something as mundane as building a drawer, Adam's enthusiasm is infectious. It's fantastic to watch
Hi. I am in my 70s and this harkens back to my schooldays when our woodwork teacher would pick us schoolboys up when we picked up a tool and called it a compass. “ A compass is what you use to navigate with, what you have in your hand is a pair of compasses”. I should add that I am from the UK and perhaps that’s the difference, “ two countries separated by a common language”.
I’m in my 30’s and heard the same thing in school in Canada, but only from the smart teachers!
Meanwhile the compass is older than the compass rose or its modern derivative the magnetic compass
Math or Maths?!
Ah, thank you for the comment!
My father, an engineer from the UK, said "the queen in a ruler, you measure with a rule".
“The mark of greatness is when everything before you is obsolete, and everything after you bears your mark.” -Dave Chappelle
Something I really like about Adams videos is that he is just being himself, there's no try hard "presenter" voice. So many TH-camrs try to sound like TV presenters and it sounds fake.
I'm only 24, but I already look back at things I don't really remember making, and it really is like magic.
I don’t know how you can continue your life knowing the small blade of the giant Swiss Army knife is on backwards. 😱
He did explain he did cut himself numerous times on that blade, I guess now it's backward that side is safe.
@@2adamast hate to pop your bubble...he mentioned cutting himself in regards to the big blade not having a lock like the Leatherman. He had assembled the small prop blade before he realized that it went on backwards. He said he'd fix it someday.
I thought I was the only one who couldn't concentrate on the video by watching the Swiss army knife with the wrong little blade...
The little blade being backwards is just a reminder that he has to remake it
I was looking for this comment 😃 It bothers me too seeing that knife moving in the background, knowing one of the blades is backwards.
One of my favorite part of the timelapses is the Swiss Army knife doing it’s little dance in the background :)
I hadnt noticed till you mentioned it. Now i cant stop watching!!
Yes, absolutely. It even feels synched to the music in the early part of the video.
It angers me because a recent video shows him replacing the small blade on the bottom... but he puts it in backward
@@marks47 pobody’s nerfect 🤷♂️
As I watch this it reminds me of a process we called “Leaning out”. It was a way we gave everything a designated space in a location optimized for each tools use. It would be like finding a home for a stapler that would save everyone in an office from spending 2 minutes looking for it. It had a home and if you used it in a place other than it’s home, it was immediately replaced after you use it. That’s if you couldn’t bring the work to the stapler. And it’s home was in a location suited for easy access to everyone that used it. The stapler is an example. After learning the process I found myself doing it all around my house. The kitchen and cabinets made a big difference. You could open the pantry and see everything and it’s designated shelf of that type of food and you could literally find something in the dark after a week. It was nice! We just moved in to a place and most of our things are in boxes or random spots through the house and it’s making me nuts. Im in the process of fixing it all now. I need to do this exact thing with some of my sketching, layout, and marking gauges for my woodworking stuff. Can you use another type of glue with foam core or just hot glue? I can never not make a mess when trying to use a hot glue gun. And can you get the foam core ordered online and have it shipped without getting destroyed during shipping?
“Ow that actually hurts” - John Donne - seems like a tshirt to me!
I wonder if the poet had a similar experience playing with his own compass.?
Absolutely love how during the montage at the beginning, your newly fixed Swiss army knife now seems to dance with the music.
Yeah. I've been trying to figure out what dance from the 60s.
Great work Adam! I think some Shadow Foam in that drawer or a power tool wall could take it up another level though ?! 😎
Great idea! The Makita Wall is Epic!
In Purple!!!
Shadow Foam what a brilliant idea, if Adam is anything like me he will love SHADOW FOAM !!!
Our work vans are kitted out with your product shadow foam and we would now be lost without it. I can highly recommended it to EVERYONE for EVERY purpose.
My husband is obsessed with shadowfoam!
I will never make or build anything Adam does BUT I so enjoy watching these videos..especially these organizing ones. This was immensely satisfying!
Watching Adam Savage do his thing is my therapy
I'm a 17 year old kid that loves your videos and your work, Adam. Hope you see this cos you inspire me.
Same here man. That shop looks like something I wanna build for myself in the future
"I covet it even though I made it"
The Savage standard
What is in a name? Are they drafting tools or layout tools?
Adam you have made this pandemic easier, bearable, and given an escape for THOUSANDS of people I am sure.
You have been a inspiration in such a positive way. When we do get through these difficult times I will honestly be able to say, you were a big help and I will always appreciate you. You have helped power that light at the end of the tunnel.
Thank you.
As you look at Studley's Toolbox and are awed and intimidated, i look at your work shop and am awed and intimidated. Your work shop ("Cave") is everything that i strive for and dream possible. Even being disable with 70% loss of function of my hand, i cant stop being a maker. I still have to have project upon project accessible just to keep my sanity in check, most of which people think i am uncapable of doing with my limitations. But if i want to do it, i always find a way to get it done, and that's what your work shop symbolizes to me, Freedom. Freedom from the limitations that others put on me because of my physical limitation. Thank you for your videos, they help remind me that i am only limited by the limitations i put on myself.
"The trick is don't curse around adults."
- Adam Savage. 2020.
After the drafting tool videos I knew this was coming.
I'd love to visit the shop some day.
Adam just makes me happy. He has such a fun personality, and watching him get excited building a drawer, makes me excited.
I like how in every video. Adam talks about philosophical life questions and that I in the end have more questions than before.
I love his videos.
Theres something romantic about the combination square drawer being so crooked
8:02 - now I want to watch Terminator again.
this is Adam at absolute sweetest - bless you sir, you help keep us sane
I adore Adam. I know I won't be the first to exclaim this, but the man is... warm. An odd thing to say at first glance, perhaps. He is though. Warm in heart and spirit. Genuine and true to the Nth degree. I admire him greatly and yet, he's the most humble and wonderful person, with a knowledge that continues to astound and inspire me.
Still waiting for Adams sock drawer vid!
The "Alexa play" activated my Alexa and caused it to play the long and winding road!
I know! Mine played "Strode Rode"!
Ours just played the radio!
If you want tool recommendations tbh there's no one better on TH-cam than Stumpy Nubs. Homeboy is just so knowledgeable and level headed you can't help but love him a lot.
I watch this and come to two conclusions...... Adam has created a Studley toolbox in a HUGE format that can actually be walked around in and possibly contains at least 1 version of EVERY tool "Maker" known to mankind! My second conclusion is that I need more drafting equipment!!! I could live in that shop for 10 years and never feel bored 👍👍👍👍👍
Me: *thinks* who is Studley
Adam: *seconds later* Who is Studley...
Me: 😳
Me: I'd like to pause this video right now and google Studley...
@@darylh8657 I wrote it down to google it afterwards 😅
Having been a hobbyist woodworker when the first poster of the A.O. Studley toolbox came out, I was thinking. "Yeah! Adam believes his audience already knows about the Studley tool box and won't explain it!"
Protect this man at all costs.
I realized that you could find a answer to a problem that is just the symptom of a bigger problem.
I love drawers man! They make it easier to organize a shop.
Regarding the Studley tool box - I guess we all love it
But it doesn't have the first order retrievability you love Adam.
22:00 - For me, there are a few things that are like that, but they're not things I've built. They're programming projects, and in retrospect I'm surprised I even figured out where to begin, much less that I was able to achieve what I was hoping. I'm not a programmer and only have a basic knowledge, but on a couple of occasions I was able to modify existing executables in a hex editor to subtly alter their functions.
Specifically, one was a bridging program that read the window title of one application and passed that data to a second application. An update to the first application altered the format of the data in the window title such that it broke compatibility. Somehow I was able to determine what language the bridging program was written in, decompile it, determine via the assembly code where and how it parsed the window title, and tweak the original executable in a hex editor to regain function. Looking back at it, now...I'm astounded. "Was that even me?"
The second was during the Soldier of Fortune II beta. The beta executable was tweaked so that it couldn't read custom content (like skins and such). I managed to "unlock" it, again by tracing the assembly code and modifying the executable. All I used it for was to put my own custom skins on some of the weapons, but I was still pretty chuffed about it.
I simply can't stop looking at the Swis-Army knife dancing in the back-ground. The speed of the video, matches almost perfectly with the music, so the Swiss-army knife looks like it's dancing to the music.
Adam I think this is a perfect example of "with age come wisdom" I being much older than you have had my drawers organized forever you know how it goes memory is the first thing to go with age. So I got ahead of the game and organized everything several years ago while my faculties were still sharp. I can't make that claim now :-)
The new mantra today is, With age comes dementia.
@@1pcfred Yea well such is not the case with me :-)
@@robpayne1956 that's good and bad. A lot of things in life are like that.
@@1pcfred Good in what way ?? and yet bad in another ?? Please explain ?? :-)
@@robpayne1956 it is good because who wants to know they're getting old? It's bad because you don't know.
That tool box is a work of art and attractive but very impractical. Are all those tools really necessary? Probably not. Portable? It has to weigh close to 200 pounds, many tools are located underneath multiple layers of other tools, so in order to get the tool you need, you have to remove 5 other tools. I always admire those old timer craftsmen that carry around a carefully curated tool bag that's been chipped down to exactly what they need to do 99% of the jobs they'll do in a year. The efficiency and deliberate nature of it is something i aspire to. I'm the type that packs everything I can into a bag because "I might need this", even though I know deep down I probably won't.
I’m guilty of window shopping during the montages to get ideas for my own shop :)
Adam is always wholesome. Even about his swearing. I will definitely share his videos with my kids
Let's be real. You'd have to be some kind of a mental midget to not know every swear before you can even read. But as Adam points out one must also know when it is appropriate to swear. That is more important. It is the aspect a child will struggle with learning too. To be polite one must know what is impolite. As far as manners go I'd put swearing pretty far down the scale of importance too.
Learning philosophy, poetry, craftsmanship and life skills in just 30 minutes with Adam is just absolutely brilliant.
Okay since you asked for suggestions, try googling "john heisz compact compass". It's a very useful tiny compass, and you can build it yourself.
He's brilliant!
Oh, and I follow your channel now :)
@@thomashverring9484 Thanks, and welcome! John is indeed a brilliant woodworker and pretty good youtube teacher also.
Best thing I ever heard about cursing is from Spongebob, he calls them “Sentence Enhancers”
Dear Mr savage. I know you will never see this, but, you are a hero of mine (alongside Einstein). I just wanted to get this off my chest. Thank you for being you.
Adam is the poster child of organized chaos. Display room is chaotic with cool things everywhere yet his workshop looks like chaos but is organized at the same time

Had the same idea!
. . . YET
@@michaelrice500 exactly. He hasn't made a double Decker drafting tool drawer YET.
I would recommend a sliding tills like carpenter's tool chests have. It would slide left-right so they stay in place when the drawer is opened.
@@jimleonardson4268 That's a nice idea, easy to implement. I was thinking about a some unfolding tiered thing with swing arms and else, but I like your idea best.
As a rough carpenter, some 50 years ago, I built the perfect toolbox for all my tools. 3 or 4 years later I started doing a lot of finish carpentry and dabbling in fine case work. All of the more delicate tools required for fine work did not play well with the rough and tumble tools of a rough carpenter. Time for additional toolbox. With a move to a more rustic area I acquired the skills of timber frame construction. Another toolbox. Fine furniture building, another toolbox. Custom metalwork - toolbox. Theater. stagecraft and prop building - toolbox. Costume design and construction - toolbox and sewing machine. On and on the stone rolls and I acquired yet more skills. My toolboxes now fill a large van with a ramp, power lift, generator, cot, refrigerator and drafting/sewing table. My three stall garage has one stall for the wife and the rest is for me. Now that I've reached 70 I am slowing down, some what, but I still have space for 2 or 3 more toolboxes.
Studley's toolbox is a thing of beauty, but it would never work out for one such as I.
Keep up the good work,
Bill.
I, for one, bless the day that Adam Savage decided to make videos of his many builds and passions.
Why didn’t you include that beautiful Iris tool for drawing circles that you showed us a while back? I think you mentioned it at the beginning of this video, but then nothing?
That's what I came here to say as well.
I think that must be the tool he alluded to being out of place. Probably he wants to keep it with a separate collection
The one in the shot top right at 11:11? I could be wrong but is it maybe the one on top of the frame at 29:23? By the way, the tool out of place is the 'golden ratio calipers' (see 29:06).
@@martink.6872 the Iris tool is the one top right at 11:11. But it is clearly not in the drawer at the end of the video. Plus, Adam has 2 or 3 of them. None of which are in the drawer.
honestly, the iris tool is as much an art piece as it is a tool (though, much like the Stradivarius violins, should be used.) so I would not be surprised if it has a special place in the shop.
Hi Adam, love the one day builds I watch every sataurday with my 11 month old daughter it her second favorite show Cocomelon sligtly edges you out. LOL ! keep the video coming .
Thank you
Adam my 5 year old son and I love watching your videos and coming up with projects that we can do together and I really appreciate you taking the time to share your projects and things with us
This video for some reason made me think of the inevitably of death, not in the morbid sense, but rather in the same example as the Studley box, or the same way we get to buy the used tools of the 1800 and 1900 and we get to marvel on the way they use to fabricate things.
Adam builds like if he is going to use all his workshop for eternity, with as we know will not happen but someone will get to marvel at his craft level within the future and I hope feels the same joy the he does over it or like I feel when I see a machine that is older that everyone that I know and works beautifully.
8:02 - Attention! T-800 incoming
Beat me to it!
Hahaha...fantastic!
Hahaha!
Hi Adam, why not just print out a scaled version of your tools, and lay it as a base?
That would pigeon hole him into never adding/subtracting tools
They'd be shifting around all the time.
@@MichaelBerthelsen Not if he glues it down
@@kevinhammond9445 You want him to glue his tools to the shelf...?!
Glue the printout...
I came to this video looking for another excellent build, and leave with a dozen philosophical questions about being human. Well done, Adam.
man you're shop is a fantasy set up. and not just the tool collection but the custom stuff. it's a amazing.
The HO Studly Tool Chest is absolute perfection. It at times has inspired me and at others, days when I'm not feeling so optimistic, it's convinced me I should just give it up- that some ppl are just naturally prone to this type of work, inclined to it- and maybe I'm not one of them. But when it's in your blood, it's in your blood- you can't stop. Cursed to forever reach for a perfection that will always remain just beyond your grasp- but blessed to have such clear purpose.
I enjoy the “philosophy with Adam.” It’s relaxing.
Two lessons in one video. GREAT especially for the advice on cursing. dear sir thank you so much.
that quote "real greatness is making everything before you came obsolete and everything after you arrived changed" just blew my mind... that's been my ultimate goal in my professional life. thank you adam
I've heard Adam talk about cursing and it coming from children before and I have totally adopted the way he explains it when talking to my kids about it. It's right on.
I used to watch myth busters all the time as a kid and I still love what you do, I just miss all the explosions
I'm not seeing a lot of comments about additions, so I'll add mine here. Inset a couple of hardwood rails front and rear about 1/4 proud of the inside of the drawer and build a couple of trays with hardwood sides that could slide back and forth. As others have said, the iris tool is conspicuously missing, and surely there could be a tray of just compasses. In addition, I only see 6" rules. I have several lengths of rules, both in stainless, clear plastic, architects scales, and a couple steel-edged plastic rules for cutting. Things like marking gauges are really a different category it seems, though a tray with stops could allow taller object like those gauges to rest nicely in the center. Always inspiring Adam! Thank you! Saving pennies for a glue gun!
I love Your approach to these themes, with an open mind and a lot of "childish" joy and pride. It is uplifting and heartwarming!
props to the editor for making the music match the movement of the giant swiss army knife display!!!
OMG the giant Swiss army knife dancing to 80's music is the best thing ever!
Adam casually reminding me of the principle of "If you don't typically swear, it's more impactful when you do." Lovely to witness when the principle is used to express complete and utter joy. Amusing lesson for the kiddos watching, too, hahaha
I'm in the middle of trying to build small tool storage like this and am well aware of studley and yes, Intimidating as hell, but then I realize that that was his set up and I need to come up with my own like you are. It's taking long because of paralysis by analysis. I need to embrace the "first time won't be perfect" mind set and just do it and then revise.
Thanks Adam.
I love that Donne poem. It's very romantic. I never looked at a compass the same way again.
"Real greatness is leaving everything before you came obsolete and everything after you arrived changed." I love that.
I'e always wanted to say this to you and I was hoping to say it in person if I ever got the honor to meet you, but that possibility seems further away every year, so I will say it via this comment and hope someday you read it. "You were my first and, to this day, greatest mentor. Thank you." you have changed my life so many times in so many ways since those early 2000s days when one of the first things I watched on cable TV was an early Mythbusters episode.
My soul smiles at that organization :)
