![Darren Waller - Who Knew (Her Perspective) [Official Video]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/GytDjB8u6bM/mqdefault.jpg)
*TOP QUESTIONS:*
*-Why not use an induction coil?*
Induction coils are not as efficient as resistance heating. You would need a power supply (+ the battery) the size of a microwave to produce 15kW of heat. Where as with resistive heating, you only need a battery pack to produce 15kW to get that much heat.
*-Why isn't the tip red hot?*
If the tip was red hot, it wouldn't penetrate at all. It would deform on impact. We can do it (just use a shorter bolt).
*-What's the music at the beginning?*
It's the Valve intro music in many games.
*-Why didn't you use real rebar?*
It's not very conductive because it is rusty and bumpy. Hard to make a good connection. That's why we used smooth steel rods. This is shown in the video.
*-You should test this against the shield!*
The shield would win ;-)
the Hacksmith Why not have the crowbar type Gordon uses?
Now do the dragon’s fury from the latest update in TF2
for curiosity, it would really be awesome seeing that thing deform with the superheated projectile that includes the tip. hell when the steel deformed when the bolt impacted was oddly beautiful
Then make the hot hand and use it on passers by
You know, as it is said at 20:11, even Hacksmith starts to appreciate the sheer force of bullets, now that he sees how hard it is to penetrate this skull with crowbar, or a rebar from a recurve crossbow, which actually fails to do so at 18:50, and the same happens to an actual crossbow, while the recurve crossbow is stronger than a usual one. There's a lot of videos on YT that show what a usual rifle ammo can do to medieval armor (not to speak of a usual human skull)
So, what's OP is the Barrett 50, and even the usual rifles like Mosint-Nagant are OP, this here is video game stuff.
NEXT PROJECT: GRAVITY GUN
NEXT PROJECT: CONFISCATED BY THE MILITARY
NEXT PROJECT: NONDISMENTIONAL
NEXT PROJECT: TAKEN BY AREA 51
NEXT PROJECT: TAU CANNON
NEXT PROJECT: ESCAPING THE CIA
I suspect loading the bolts and drawing the bow would be easier if you had an HEV suit. Not only to protect your hands from the metal and the string, but also to help with the pull strength.
If I remember correctly, stuff like the gravity gun is actually considerably heavy to people to hold, Alyx struggles to hold it in Black Mesa East but Gordon is able to carry it like its nothing, so potentially yeah the HEV suit has some strength enhancing abilities
@@kittyhawk2352 Maybe thats why guns have so low recoil in Half Life 2
Duh? Why didn't you use an HEV suit?
buffalo wt Gordon didn’t skip arm day lmao
@@vicentec4779 Well look at the pistol in HL2, it blows back so frickin far, also the same with SMG
The concept of such an old medieval weapon like a crossboww being turned into a scrappy home-made sniper rifle that shoots rebars heated up by a battery is just something that I find super cool.
Its my fav weapon of the franchise, it blows the first one outta the water
So the crossbow implies at some point, alyx and maybe some of the vorts all gathered round a workbench at some coast base, came up with this concept, built several working models (enough to supply most resistance supply posts with rebar ammunition for it) and during none of this did eli or kleiner or anyone else say “this is stupid and dangerous”.
Do you forget that they were fighting an enemy, who equiped their occupation forces on earth with a rifle that can atomise you just by pressing alt fire. I don’t think they had to much room to complain
ever since the resonance cascade, "stupid and dangerous" became a non-issue
@@BlackHat-qf2bc Yeah but as we have seen in the video it clearly wouldn't pin those Combine soldiers to the wall like it does in the game.
Like many weapons from games, the whole concept is seriously flawed - but you actually managed to get it working as intended. That is a major accomplishment and I salute you! Good job. Of course the crossbow could be improved by a built-in winch - then you could also increase the draw weight further. Rebar isn't a very good arrow material anyway as it isn't front heavy, so the "arrows" won't fly straight over a longer distance. They will start to tumble pretty soon. Plus, as you clearly demonstrated, it is a stupid idea to heat up your arrows as they will get butter soft. Much easier to make burning arrows with a bit of steel wool and sulfur, or make them ignite on impact.
JoergSprave spittin truth
CHOP very true
CHOP the legend of making 1100Joule weapons out of nowhere, that is llegaly a toy in Deutschland
+JoergSprave thanks Joerg! I too was surprised how close to the game we got it! The one in the game is winch driven so maybe a future upgrade?? I just picked up a crossbow string assist for it in the meantime. It's a lot easier to load now. Only after bruising my chest during the filming of this video!
We should do a collab sometime :)
JoergSprave add molybdenum and extra carbon to the rebar and it shouldnt distort when it is fired at head
This has to be one of the most dangerous but absolutely worth it creations ever
This has to be one of the most dangerous but absolutely worth (it) creations ever :)
@@renascitur7051 this has to be one of the most dangerous but "absolutley worth it" creations ever :3
12:38 love how that resembles when you run out of ammo and it just sparks like in the game
NEXT PROJECT: TAU CANNON FROM HALF-LIFE 1
Tau lah
What’s a tau cannon?!?? You mean gluon gun?
@@epikreaper19 there are two laser weapons in hl1 the shoots rapid fire laser beams and it alt fire is a charged shot. This is the tau cannon. The gluon gun is the ghost buster pack. They share ammo.
Why not also make the gluon gun too?
Don't let it overcharge
I appreciate the fact that when the resistance created this crossbow they decided that simply firing a piece of rebar at the combine with enough force to pin corpses to walls just wasn't enough, nope. They needed to heat the thing red hot first and then launch said rebar at the combine with enough force to pin the body into the wall.
*professionals have standards*
Well I mean they did turn many rebel members into striders which....... just look at the striders man
@@kowhaifan1249 Striders?? You mean Stalkers?
a lot of understandable anger behind the crossbow design on the resistance's part
It probably wasn't "standard issue" as you find it in a blown up house during Highway 17
13:32 Stop stealing my job James. Nobody eats burnt food better than me.
Oh it's on. I ate some nasty laser engraved toast like 5 years ago!
William Osman lol, at least he didn't laser cut it right?
William Osman u r da best
Sup
William Osman lol
I love the process of "so we bought this completely functional regular crossbow, which we _could_ have modified, but instead what if we used this piece of somewhat flexible metal instead?" I love the commitment to working with what you have to build a makeshift weapon.
16:30reminds me of the introduction of father grigori
What did you guys think!? It's our LONGEST Make it Real yet, but I think it kinda felt like a proper TV show episode! Also if I do say so myself, I think this weapon is a Colin Furze caliber creation! We also didn't do any design on the computer!
PS: For those wondering, we did not win the Art Prize =(
the Hacksmith, surely you would be able to receive a contract from RUclips to produce a "RUclips Red" series or a Netflix funded series. As this easily meets the length requirements and is filled with engaging content.
Yeah right😃😃
+Edward Nelson unfortunately it's still a lot more complex than that, and a huge commitment!
Reality TV show. Film everything, all the time. Oh wait that's RUclips already
the Hacksmith best video ever expect the part with the brain making, it was gross
When the Combine said "Cauterize", they probably didn't expect the Resistance to take it literally.
_Attention, ground units - anti-citizen reported in this community. Code: lock, cauterize, stabilize._
Great Video!
Angle, Cauterize, Flash
@oskar3897 "Um overwatch he appears to be using some kind of crossbo- /\/\________ UNIT DOWN FAMILY COHESION CANCELLED"
and the Resistance took their name literally
At the start I though "he's probably gonna make just a decorative model", oh boy I was completly wrong and now I'm happy for the best 20 minutes of custom built projects that I have ever watched.
I always thought that the rebar being red hot would mean it's very soft and would bend while shooting and either become a boomerang or blow up in shooter's face or turn into a donut under the crossbow's push and take off in a random direction.
I am surprised you were able to get a steel rod that is both red hot and rigid enough to be shot from the crossbow and penetrate it's target. Also, just the fact you were able to make a sufficient portable power source is incredible enough. It's crazy how you made this clearly insane idea from HL2 into a working (albeit not practical) weapon. Kudos!
The guy who's talking in the video honestly looks like Gordon, the resemblance is uncanny
Avidion lets be honest if the combine ever invaded he would be the Gordon Freeman there
@@BossKnight what if he is gordon freeman for real
If Gordan had a RUclips channel and let me make this clear... WOULD TALK!
Gordan freeman in the flesh or in the protective gear
@@MelTheHal I took the liberty of relieving you of your weapons, most of them were government property
7:01 needs to be a meme.
14:52 casually deflects blender lid
Behold, as the Hacksmith fashions a crossbow out of only some scrap metal, string, and a crossbow.
what's that from? I know I've heard it somewhere
also that almost made me spit out my water
Forgot the leaf spring suspension
From that old disney show "dave the barbarian" lol. IIRC, he made a megaphone with a squirrel, a piece of string, and a megaphone.
Ben omg yes, thank you
We've been waiting 13 years until some glorious bastard brought this idea into reality.
Thank you, my good sir.
You are my hero.
yes
+Horny Fruit Flies no problem!
Same
“Once it’s too hot. It becomes soft.”
Check out the episode when Sandor Clegane fights Beric Dondarrion
Firing molten crossbow bolts, it's the newest glowing red hot phase
hopefully theres no "thousand degree rebar" videos soon to come XD!
It's not new though half-life 2 came out 2004 so the idea came up in 2004
Thousand degree rebar vs original content
Thousand degree rebar vs. red hot knife
You forgot to make the corpses fly everywhere when you shot them
Gmod Physics
Classic Havok physics.
성진 half life
YES YYYEEESSSS
Only happens with GMod, HL2 has them stick to walls
Hardly anyone mentioned the Unreal Tournament soundtrack being used in this video… that filled my soul with joy hearing it.
Remember! Gordon can only use the rebar firing bow because he is wearing the H.E.V. suit! A Heat and Damage resistant suit of armor!
Gordon touches red hot rebar
Hev suit: this is fine!
Same suit steps within a meter of fire: AHHH IT BURNNS
@@Pacman009 That is a bit strange
Has a plasma cutter but not a color printer😂😞
Didn't have a plasma cutter in this video =p
Forgot to look at date 😂 sry
late reply but it does make sense; the man can afford a plasma cutter but he doesnt a color printer
@@iamalsoaduckhead Its a decent joke, but having enough to buy a plasma cutter means you can buy a colour printer, but wjat wbout when that momey is gone?
Unreal tournament music? You are officially my favorite youtuber. Period.
Indeed.
18:28 *(Megalovania intensifies)
Stolen comment
15:00 you MONSTERS!!! I USED to like candy corn... till... 30 seconds ago!
Has nobody else noticed that Mr Freeman is reloading those heated rebar with bare hands? Dude's a beast.
It is because of the hev suit. If he didn't have the suit he would certainly burn his hands
They're not heated before they're put into the crossbow. He's not just carrying around red hot bars of metal constantly
Well that's because that footage came from gmod
@@PratDunderhead gmod is a port of HL2
@@desired01 yea but they don't use the same character for the arms
Dang dude. You killed it with this one, great work.
Thanks Tommy!
NP! Also saw you over in one of my favorite "backyards" on a collab recently. That must have been fun!
Dude law you have to add hl3 confirm? Well you guys are funny
hi
the Hacksmith down crowbar :"( katalin talent nu ar fi mandru de tine.
Everyone throws their gaming devices
Me: why
Them : why play virtual when we can play it in real life
Hacksmith : bow to meee
me: **hears intro**
also me: **has flashbacks of killing citizens in city 17 for fun**
*i see why the combine do this now*
Considering how heavy the bow was and how hard you were trying to prevent yourself wobbling, good shot with the apple.
7:56 it's a me, Mario!
OwO
JupiterKnight oh shit it’s a furry
@@wellauth get the crossbow
@@thearch-vile8232 no grab the supercharged grav gun
@MλresDλniel TV or another furry
"Today, were gonna be making a fully functional HEV suit along with a charged gravity gun."
Gotta love burning styrofoam and breathing in those _sweet, succulent,_ toxic gases.
In this video, we make a crossbow out of nothing but some metal, a few pulleys, and a crossbow.
Love it
And yet,
Freeman can carry that crossbow at 900 miles per hour
Adam J. Harper I know
But I was reffering to him bunnyhopping
*Doing an ABH.
Bunnyhopping sort of worked in the old version.

AcidHound_X w
fun fact: in half life 1 you can hit the body parts with the crowbar to reduce them to just blood puddles, so finishing him off with a crowbar was rather accurate
goin through this old video really makes me wish you guys did more valve stuff-- a portal gun or a gravity gun replica would be so cool.
a portal gun and gravity gun model is what you meant by that right?
@@leonmsonroblox6412 he said replica. But a real life gravity gun or portal gun would be cool
@@samf299i agree
First song gave me a flashback to Half Life about 15 years ago. The second one was definitely from Unreal Tournament. Spent enough time waiting for the multiplayer game to load to recognize that one immediately. Oh the days of LAN parties :p
Unreal Tournament 1999. also the third and forth song is from the game
Rickn'Roll I think I played 2004 version more. It's been a while either way. Fun times with great friends for sure!
7:56 sounds like mario
Lol it does so much 😂
Lmao fr 😂😂
itsa me maario
Woohoo😄😄😄😄🤣🤣😂
I love how you added how the little battery on the bottom heats the rebar up
It looks like you need to apply an initial pressure to the bolt to start heating it. Perhaps having magnets that are actuated to help with the initial connection with the copper contacts.
Maybe an automatically feeding solder to both stick it and be conductive
If the spit ever hits the fan, I think you may end up the King of whatever remains! ;)
Hahaha, thanks xD And thank you for supporting us on Patreon!

You ever heard of JoergSprave?
I would like to borrow this gun for a research
"research"... 🤔😂
"gun"
tryna put off Combines and Zen aliens?
RyuzoSan _19 he probably just wants to shoot it up his ass
Why the thing is heated up? Is from energy = heat for example earth godzilla emp harpoons make energy so godzilla well explode but the plan not work you see the earth goji is 300 meters emp harpoons put more energy felius goji cant make the energy to heat.
casually deflects blender lid with hand
Crazy we got real life Half-Life before GTA 6
That's wicked! As soon as you debunked hot steel rods can't go through concrete like in the game I'd thought I was watching mythbusters. Great work!
Who remembers when only the wolverine claws where on the yellow wall
The reason for heating the bolt might be inspired from the the way an arrow wobbles for extra accuracy when shot from a bow. crossbow bolt are usually shorter and dont wobble but the lenght of the rebar is more simular to an arrow.
Am i the only one noticing old UT2001 for halflife content?

Rykahnz Your profile picture is the same as my steam one, and I've had it a long time.
Ples biled a preditor blade
This needs revisiting with TUNGSTEN BOLT. It can easily get red-hot while staying much more rigid. Also it prob could have some emission-wavelength based controller to keep it "hot" but not "noodle hot". With some improvements this seems much more scary than most inventions xD

Him and Collinfurze would team up in the apocalypse
The fact the real life one is more overpowered than the video game is insane
I knew it was possible but didn't think there were any portable batteries that could provide that much current without frying.
I thought the only way would be to carry a car battery pack on your back or a solar arrangement battery.
But I'm so glad to see a near-perfect hl2 crossbow.
9:25 "why you guys looking at me"
I H K I died to his voice 😂
I see you, editor who made the welds go along to the music. you haven't gone unnoticed
"I did?"
... "uhh, yeah!"
Can’t wait for them to do the real life AR2 project!
gordon: gets a crowbar
some random resistance member:
It hurts just to even think about getting shot with that thing...
ConAir Saturday imagine your lung got pierced by it and the heat burns your internal organs
Stop please, dont do this to yourself.
Irsan it could also kinda just cauterize the wound
Dio: あなたはすでに死んでいる。 Jotaro: 何?!? And then some.
So after skewering your enemy, you cauterize the wound. A humane weapon for a more civilized age.
I don't know about you, but it would still be painful if it's still lodged in you, try pulling out a red hot bolt with your bare hands while getting cooked from the inside. xD
That rebar is red hot, ribbed and stuck in impaled targets. It will cook them from the inside out.
Fire this into the eye, the liquids instantly evaporate. The wound is also cauterised instantly, meaning the gasses have nowhere to go. The eyeball explodes.
Both aliens and synth enemies in HL2 have a big problem when it comes to fire. This is the best diy weapon to use against them.
We need a Gluon Gun
THIS is the process I liked seeing rather than just seeing if its possible. I'd watch more videos like these where its almost certainly possible to make but aren't practical for any real use.
The funny thing is he DOES looks like Gordon with glasses on.
This is why Gordon wears H.E.V. suit.. That thing is heavy and hard to draw.
if this video proves anything, it proves how jacked Gordon is in the game since he can load the crossbow with one hand
That crossbow look likes the crossbow of capitão of Rainbow Six Siege
Keep hitting me with that nostalgia bro! Half life build one of my favourite games with the unreal tournament theme songs in the background, the first and most favourite game of all time!!!!
Now you need to make a tool gun
Only as an decoration ???
A gravity gun would be better
Toa you mean a "Zero Point Energy Field Manipulator" :>
physgun better than gravity gun
In the actual game it is called the Mega "Gravity Gun" by using the command physgun_mega_enabled 1 so it is not a physgun. That is a garry's mod Mega "Gravity Gun"
Very interesting concept of the crossbow in the game could be you could charge it for more power but if you charge it too much the arrow just melts
I LOVE SOUNDING WITH REBAR
Attention ground units. Anticitizen reported in this community. Code: lock, cauterize, stabilize.
You guys are great
Wait so you used metal, a truck part, and a crossbow.... to make a crossbow
NICE

I love how the chicken heart was the thing that scared you the absolute most
Rise and build Mr. Hackman, rise and build. Not to imply you have been sleeping on the job, nobody in the world is more deserving of a rest then you. The right welder at the wrong sheet of metal can make all the difference. So wake up Mr. Hackman. Wake up and, smell the molten metal.

It's so awesome! My favorite project is still that batman grappling hook, but this is near the top of the list.
Glad to see you are a part of the resistance too
This has high implications for great gameplay concepts that could have been added to Half-Life 2's crossbow.
•Toggling battery power on and off
•Rebar bolts pinning human-sized enemies to surface only when cold.
•Heating uses a warmup-timer, affecting the damage of a shot.
•More heat = less damage, but a shot would create an area of burn/melt around a target which would enlarge and burn/melt faster the hotter it gets.
•On hit, the area of burn/melt would sizzle/skin the surface at low heat, spark some flame at that would burn it over time/melt a gib off of it at medium, and create a scorching fire that would instantly cremate the target at maxium heat. This would also depend on whether the target is more likely to melt or burn first.
•This would apply to props and surfaces as well, which could create areas of denial in certain of situations.
Thinking quickly, the Hacksmith constructs a homemade crossbow, using only a leaf-spring, some scrap metal, and a crossbow!
XD!
but rebar when its not heated actualy worked better than normal arrow, and what if we make rebar with sharp tip? heated rebar looks like could only be used for lighting flammable things on fire
Make pretty tracer rounds as well! 😁
At least it wasn't a hot knife! :-) Great job
electronicsNmore no but it was a glowing hot object that goes through things
you gotta remember, that gordan freeman has his awesome power suit which helps him load the OP crossbow
Gordon Freeman would be proud, the combine would be scared
The thumbnail makes you seem prepared for a combine invasion AND an attack from severely mutated people.
