2:15 "...I have all these helmets" Exactly 2 minutes later 4:15 "These are all head bangers, I have lots of marks across my head...." I might have a solution to your problems.
Maybe he should as a rule wear a helmet whenever he goes up there. I hope anyone who works with him wears a helmet when they go up there. He's familiar with the area and still bumps his head. Imagine going up there the first time you'd be hitting your head every seven feet or so.
Like seriously, a lot of things could be either auctioned for charity, or, auctioned as lots for local Makers if not donated outright, which also helps.
He has! I can't remember the details but I remember hearing in Still Untitled that he had done many auctions for charity of things in the cave he wanted to clear out. IIRC, those that gave the most money were even given a personal tour of the cave.
About half way through it occurred to me that his storage went higher than the sprinkler heads. Then I realized that the WOOD frame warehouse had NO sprinkler system. I hope he is well insured, not necessarily for his causing anything, but he has neighbors.
I had a salvages section go wire bridge between my lofts. And it was all fun and games until i got caught one step into crossing, in the middle of an earthquake. Haven't used it since. :)
Yup. Here are the links with timestamps. Both from the same video. Prior costume loft, now camera storage (above office) th-cam.com/video/l9AqYaSRjw0/w-d-xo.htmlm10s Loft from this video (above prop display shelves) th-cam.com/video/l9AqYaSRjw0/w-d-xo.htmlm10s
I love all the nooks and crannies in the shop. Giant costumes and dummies looming in the shadows, untold riches in the loft, how I wish I lived on the west coast. You sir, are awesome.
to be honest... ever since the first episode of mythbusters I have become a fan of Admam... all he does, his knowledge, his videos, his yt channel... everything has educated me so much... and he's a freaking nerd like me... please never quit. we need you Adam, thank you for everything from the bottom of my hear.
I'm just loving the irony of mentioning all the foam in storage several times, and then shortly after hitting one's head on a beam. I think we found a great use for some of that foam. LOL. (And yes I agree, we've seen the loft or some version thereof before.)
As a former professional organizer (assistant, but that counts!), it does my heart good to be able to see that loft's floor! I've been in messier and worse-organized spaces, and lemme tell ya, with the basic 'all the things in this box are similar' model, you can GO FAR. It's very tempting to make piles up to the ceiling, but never - NEVER - underestimate how clear floor space will make you feel! That level of inspiring and energizing?? Second to none!
I know all your props are your creative fuel but i dont think youd need a new shop if you moved that stuff somewhere else. In fact, it would be awesome if you and your fellow peers made a prop making museum and you donated/stored some props there. It'd also be a place where you can have seminars for makers. Call it the makers mecca. instructions! Half built props explaining steps!
I got onto making electronics and soldering because of his videos. They kept me busy and not thinking about the state of our nation. Thank you Adam. You've truly inspired me and millions of others.
Reminds me of the space station where every nook and cranny is filled with stuff from floor to ceiling. It's amazing that you know what and where everything is. Love it!
Did we ever had an Episode on why he own so many Bicycles? Btw: Instead of wrapping all the tubes in foam, you should just hang a Motorcyle Helmet near the Stairs :D
Adam, thank you so much on taking us on the tour! I know there are very few people that can really appreciate what kind of material storehouse is needed for all of the different types of crafting and building that you do. Really thrilled to see the ultimate mancave you have assembled. Can't wait to see more of the "lofty" organization in the future. Love you man, one of my favorite people on the planet.
The coolest thing is that each one of these items, bins, or boxes has a story behind it and the value isn't necessarily in the object itself, but the experience or narrative that goes along with each of these builds. Such a neat place. Thanks for sharing.
most of his space is fine for me... but his display area... uggg... when ever he has people over or needs more space for a project.... it looks like he has to move SOOOO much stuff
I keep saying I have too much stuff but it is difficult to just get rid of things. I can’t bring myself to trash things that I think have some usability to them. Selling them is more tedious but just as difficult. It is comforting to see others dealing with spaces filled with their work and treasures and know we are not alone in the quest to organize and simplify our possessions. Thank you Adam for sharing.
I think TH-cam is powered in the background purely by Adam's energy - always enthused, always on the go - its so intoxicating! Thanks for making these awesome vids!
This was so GREAT!!! Thanks for the tour and more in depth maybe “sectional” tours with more detail / stories? You & the team have helped lots of folks stay sane during these weird and unprecedented times. ❤️❤️❤️
Let's get Adam a Go-Pro. I think having him film when he is working from his actual point of view would be interesting for some shots. Also I would like to add that I agree with many commentators. This pandemic has been such a dark time, seeing Adam with his constant upbeat energy and projects has kept me sane. No matter how bad the day is ... there is something going on at the Savage Cave that will cheer me up for a while.
Now since you’ve shown us you’re on the hook to keep at the “work in progress”. I like your channel because it’s not just tips and tricks, but it’s exciting and inspiring to see you get excited and inspired about stuff! Thanks!
Anyone else wouldn’t mind Adam just continueing to make these kinds of videos on his own without all the fancy editing and camera work it just makes it feel more personal to me lol
That loft reminds me of every theatre were I used to work. The unstable ladder, the dangerous headspace and the organised disorder that reign, it's wonderfull.
This reminds me of George Carlin's "A Place for My Stuff" routine. The loft gets full so Adam has to move some of the stuff to another storage space, and so on and so on...
"I don't know why I have a giant cardboard rhino." One of those sentences that has never been said before and only makes sense at this one singular point in time and space.
I was going to comment that you should always go down a ladder backwards so you're facing the ladder, that way you have something to hold onto (or grab onto if you start to fall). Glad to see Adam did this when coming down from the second loft.
So happy that you are making progress on something that seems to have been a bother to you for so long, and , making the shop more functional, to boot :)
Alternate title: Adam tries to justify his hoarding behavior. Jokes aside though it must be great to have rapid access to so many tools and so much material. Nothing kills the creative flow as much as having to go out to get a few stray materials. Love the shop and am looking forward to seeing it more organized. Wonder if we could get a tour of the deep storage though... there must be some hidden wealth of things there.
What a top Human Being you are Adam. I'm currently wading through all the Mythbusters series' nightly on Amazon Prime..endless entertainment. Keep up the good work.
Gods, reminds me of going through the salvage yards around the Bay area in the 80's. Aerospace, electrical and mechanical stuff out the wazoo. Thanks for the trip down memory lane!

Rich Wojehowski any creative person worth their salt should be in the type 1 range. Why clean when you can get more stuff! I totally get it; my mind is visual too. I need everything out and on display or else I forget about it. It's like a portion of your memory can be used less to remember where things are if they're always out in the same place. You either get it or hate it. Ex wife certainly did 🤣
I’ve worked in San Fran for years. I’ve seen your cave entrance and have seen you enter it a couple times but always respected your space. I can’t wait to see you in public again on a build
"I get tired just looking at it... what to move around..." Yeah, I feel that bigtime.... I've been putting off rearranging my disaster of a livingroom/workshop for years now, and every time I look at it, I just feel absolutely exhausted.... and put it off longer.
Mold making! I bet many followers would enjoy ODB using silicone, maybe build a mold box and demonstrate the degassing process etc... and thanks for the tour, great materials organization!
Not everyone saw that video, tho I remember it too. I would like him to do a tour on a semi annual basis. No harm in that numbering a regular thing. I'd also be okay if he started a series of videos where he focused on one part of the space in more detail.
What's amazing is the memory Adam has of what he has and where it all is. I have a fraction of the amount he has and every once in a while I come across something I didn't know I have or accidentally bought the same tool twice. How many videos has he had an idea of something to show and he knows exactly where it is and it takes 10 seconds for him to find? He might not be my hero on amount of stuff (deep down I am jealous), but he is my hero on organization!
If you want to hear the story behind every piece, it would have to be a six season series with 12 episodes in every season. And i would totally watch it.
Exactly! The two commandments of organization: 1) A place for everything and everything in its place 2) Leave empty space so you can add more stuff without constantly re-organizing
Man. I really hope, for the preservation of these historical artefacts, that you've got a good fire suppression system installed! An amazing collection of awesome stuff. :)
I've wanted to see in the loft for so long. After hearing you describe the function to each space in the cave I'm inspired like never before to design the layout and function of my dream shop.
I feel that watching Adam working in his shop is the closest I can get to my passion. I studied architecture and the part I loved the most about archi school is the process of physically making stuff, spending time sourcing for materials, planning the build and of course time in the machine lab. Having worked in a corporate setting for a while now I really missed all of that - ironically, everything seems so arbitrary and empty in the world of big buildings and projects. Unfortunately, DIY and making stuff in general isnt really popular in my country, there are only handful of maker space which makes them rather expensive and exclusive. My goal is to have my own practice some day and a small workspace where I start rediscovering those joys, but for now I'll just continue to indulge in all the one day builds on here!
This loft is the size of where my girlfriend and I live. Student life man :P. If my workshop is a quarter as cool as yours one day, I'll be a happy man
Could you imagine Adam making this video in 20 years time, with a long flowing white beard, and a hunchback, showing us his treasures! Thanks Adam, enjoyable and mesmerizing as usual.
I have a question that you can skip if you choose. During your time with Mythbusters - How much did Jamie influence your organizational scheme(s) in your current life? Thanks in advanced.
I was thinking of asking if you would ever move to a bigger space. Now that I see the lofts, I imagine it would be a MAJOR undertaking to move all that stuff. It also amazes me that you know where things are.
I was so expecting a Chevy Chase Christmas Vacation scene when he pulled down the stairs. And did i see a camera case with the name Tippett on it? Does Phil know you have his case??
I think we HAVE been up there for a peak at one time. I remember Adam showing us his costume collection that was stored there....they were all in different shape & sized garment bags. But I loved the tour!
"One of the reasons people find this terrifying is because - when you look down this ladder, you're looking down the throat of the rest of your life" **sprints down ladder at full speed without holding onto anything**
Adam, you really really really need a permanent museum exhibit of all your terrific artifacts! I know it’s expensive to do but It could be straight forward and simplistic. We’ll be your first customers. 😃

Hey, almost of your lifesaving, "soft-good," nylon rigging equipment should be retired after about 5 years, if not sooner. Not sure how much you still use any of it, but love ya too much not to mention it.

Or charity, I know of other groups auctioning off props/ signed merch for charity and I’m sure there’d be folks willing to bid on some of this stuff
You've definitely shown this before though. I distinctly remember seeing the bobblehead stuff in the loft in a video from years ago.
Yes, about to comment the same thing :) can't remember what video it was though.

Same here, he's definitely shown us the loft before. I distinctly remember him showing off the models he hopes to build in the future
Now we need a video tour of "Deep Storage" down the street..
About half way through it occurred to me that his storage went higher than the sprinkler heads.
Then I realized that the WOOD frame warehouse had NO sprinkler system.
I hope he is well insured, not necessarily for his causing anything, but he has neighbors.
I'm surprised he hasnt built a rope bridge between the two lofts!
That's something he could do with the duct tape.
I had a salvages section go wire bridge between my lofts. And it was all fun and games until i got caught one step into crossing, in the middle of an earthquake. Haven't used it since. :)
I agree with the use of the duct tape. Maybe he can make a smaller version of the one he and Jamie did during the second duct tape special.
@@matthewelliott7294 I suspect he's had his fill of duct tape but I like the thought lol
@@scaddc and jamie would never want to do that again
The "TOOLS ONLY" shelf, without a tool in sight.
It's almost unsettling how much I know about this man.
Right? And yet, we know nothing about him... I wish he was my dad or my uncle, I'd love to work with him on weekends
Haha I feel ya on that.
I think I could spend at least a week or so just poking around this shop and admiring all the hidden gems!
We’ve seen the loft. The model kit storage area when Adam was looking for Greeblies for a kit bash he did a while back.
That’s what I thought! Plus, I thought that’s where his wardrobe archive was, too.
Correct as and I recall he had all those costumes were labeled in bags. Additionally there were a ton of mythbusters bobble heads up there as well.
Thank you! I knew that we saw it some time ago.

"You're looking down the throat of the rest of your life..." To the point, and vaguely mysterious, and very relatable.
Man. I really hope, for the preservation of these historical artefacts, that you've got a good fire suppression system installed! An amazing collection of awesome stuff. :)
I second that concern. I see few fire extinguishers. There should be one on each wall in each area. Also, no sprinkler system.
The irony is that its a converted firehouse, IIRC.
I've wanted to see in the loft for so long. After hearing you describe the function to each space in the cave I'm inspired like never before to design the layout and function of my dream shop.
Awesome tour!!!
I feel that watching Adam working in his shop is the closest I can get to my passion. I studied architecture and the part I loved the most about archi school is the process of physically making stuff, spending time sourcing for materials, planning the build and of course time in the machine lab. Having worked in a corporate setting for a while now I really missed all of that - ironically, everything seems so arbitrary and empty in the world of big buildings and projects. Unfortunately, DIY and making stuff in general isnt really popular in my country, there are only handful of maker space which makes them rather expensive and exclusive. My goal is to have my own practice some day and a small workspace where I start rediscovering those joys, but for now I'll just continue to indulge in all the one day builds on here!
As a firefighter… this space makes me nervous.
As a non firefighter this space makes me nervous.
Indeed. Fire would have a nice home there.
@@jfbeam oh, please no foreshadowing. In our station (yes, Germany) this costs a beer crate, if something happens then.
@@the_jcbone it’s like the taboo of saying ”it’s quiet” when working in a hospital
As a space this firefight makes me nervous.
I love everything about this. Thank you Adam, from a life long fan
This loft is the size of where my girlfriend and I live. Student life man :P. If my workshop is a quarter as cool as yours one day, I'll be a happy man
AND he’s in San Francisco. TV money does great things
It's a low ceiling but by no means a small space. Much bigger than what I lived in as a student.
Could you imagine Adam making this video in 20 years time, with a long flowing white beard, and a hunchback, showing us his treasures! Thanks Adam, enjoyable and mesmerizing as usual.
I have a question that you can skip if you choose. During your time with Mythbusters - How much did Jamie influence your organizational scheme(s) in your current life? Thanks in advanced.
Very impressed by Adam’s ladder descending ability
I am no longer calling my basement "The Basement." It is now my "Savage Space".
You shop is so together, it's had me feeling bad about my mess. I'm feeling much better now
most important thing shown: Adam's snapple supply.
It seems so cozy to mee. I love kinda small workshops. The character just spills out at the seems.
“Things I need for projects” “these shoes from 2003”
I was thinking of asking if you would ever move to a bigger space. Now that I see the lofts, I imagine it would be a MAJOR undertaking to move all that stuff. It also amazes me that you know where things are.
I was so expecting a Chevy Chase Christmas Vacation scene when he pulled down the stairs. And did i see a camera case with the name Tippett on it? Does Phil know you have his case??
I think we HAVE been up there for a peak at one time. I remember Adam showing us his costume collection that was stored there....they were all in different shape & sized garment bags. But I loved the tour!
"One of the reasons people find this terrifying is because - when you look down this ladder, you're looking down the throat of the rest of your life"
**sprints down ladder at full speed without holding onto anything**
As a disabled person that had tinges of terror to me!
Adam, you really really really need a permanent museum exhibit of all your terrific artifacts! I know it’s expensive to do but It could be straight forward and simplistic. We’ll be your first customers. 😃
We have seen the loft before. "Tour of Adam Savage's cave!" 10 July 2014
So? Must every inaccurate (perceived or otherwise) statement be corrected? It just doesn't matter.
@@watcherofwatchers Must you write this on every comment that does this. It doesn't matter. Also, this is the internet. Corrections are going to be made in the comments. It shows the viewer has been paying attention for a long time.
@@watcherofwatchers no but it can be useful for people who want to see what it was like before or comfort for people who think they're going mad because the could have sworn they'd seen it before and want to refinde that video
@@IsYitzach well, considering the same comment was made repeatedly, yes.
@ 13:48... Adam you have balls of steel. That is nothing short of a superpower
9:29 I’m reporting Adam to the USPS for those unreturned parcel carriers. lol
There's always someone who has to say it. Always.
@@watcherofwatchers Dude you've been spamming these comments all day what is your fucking problem
@@watcherofwatchers "Uh, whaa?" Movie quote from Jaws
Oh my gosh, that fabric section! 🤩
Hey, almost of your lifesaving, "soft-good," nylon rigging equipment should be retired after about 5 years, if not sooner. Not sure how much you still use any of it, but love ya too much not to mention it.
Most manufacturers say 10 years now, but absolutely correct. It was the first thing I thought of when he showed that!
Thank you for the awesome tour Adam. It would be great to see a side-by-side comparison of the before, and after progress that you have made. Keep it up!
