Highly recommended channel: Engel's Coach Shop
Rebuilding wagons and coaches from the 1800s and early 1900s
2:45 fun fact, at the machinist shop that i work at, for a while we made the valves ports for that product. they are a pain to make at times.
Honestly loved the cruise ship series too
make a real lightsaber
i commented specs on last video
The description of tire inflators being a "weird amorphous trophy shape" vocalized an unexpressed frustration I've had my entire life.
Same. Freaking same homie. Top comment
Also, I’m pretty sure they are weird shapes because they are repurposing case molds from other products. This became obvious when all the tire inflators on Aliexpress were suddenly shaped like drills. I opened a busted one and the components on the inside looked like they were social distancing
I actually did what Adam wanted to do. I had an old TCM electric pump from the ... mid 00's (might be a bit older). Made an aluminium box on my bender and i've been using it as a brick for years now. Bout the only thing that changed is better batteries. This is the way. Tools these days look like toys.
@@TheStampi Plus it allows them to re-use batteries you might already have. There are also plenty of Aliexpress inflators that look like the one Adam shown, from well known (for Aliexpress) brands like Xiaomi or Baseus, both rechargeable and powered from the cigarette lighter port.
Same goes for electric pressure washers, some of them are terrible to store
My manager at a screen printing shop once sent one of those pressured aerosol cans full of acetone down an industrial dryer running at 360 degrees by accident. I’d seen enough mythbusters to know to run for cover but instead of exploding, that little can popped out burning hot but intact. Solid product.
Pressure relief valves are included on pressure tanks for a reason
Thanks for the shout out Adam! You have (of course) been a life-long inspiration.
I'm ready for Adam to do a monthly "home shopping network" video where he shows us random stuff he's bought "for work"
I just want to thank Adam and the tested crew for everything. You all mean more than what you think.
Appreciate that …
Thank you for not contracting "You" and "all".
@@RickR69y’all
"The Ones Who Walk Away from Omelas" is another CRUSHING Ursula Le Guin short story, and highly applicable for all eras
Frozen end of year hail from FINLAND - I say this with purest honesty from my heart - this channel saved my mental health this year from relatively deep existential crisis / depression as creative person and I wanted to humbly thank YOU ADAM + ENTOURAGE for giving me unfiltered raw inspiration and motive to gradually get back on steam again - peace and love and thank you - 2024 here we come 🤟🖤
Wishing you a much much better 2024 🙏🏼💝🤞🏼💝🙏🏼
Thanks Adam and all of Tested studios
Hearing Adam talk about his favourite movies this year made me realize that I miss the podcasts, both Still Untitled and This Is Only a Test. Still hoping they return some day..
Also wondering what Adam thinks of The Creator and its visual design! Pulling of so much with such a small budget.
Adam, I am extremely glad I exist in the same timeline as you. You're just an amazing human being.
Totally agree… I would love Adam as a friend and colleague…. I think he is an amazing person… very like myself in mindset. I’ve read Adam’s book “Every tools a hammer”, it’s so amazing!!!!!
The tape dispenser! I remember your absolute wonder when it arrived, and I love how it’s on this list now!
I'm going to be straight honest. The episode seeing your excitement for the Mitutoyo gauge blocks is probably one of my favorite things i've ever watched. It displayed how i feel when i find something awesome for my home shop. I would treat those blocks like my children haha
“The lathe of heaven “ is one of her best ❤
Thanks so much for the shout-out, Adam! I really appreciate it! ❤
8:54 You are the person I fall asleep to right now. I now have a small bruise underneath my left eye after falling asleep and dropping my phone on my face...I wear it with pride! 😂
Merry Christmas everybody!
Having discovered and subscribing to this RUclips channel IS STILL one of the best things I am very thankful for. And I'm also Absolutely thankful for how Awesome Adam Savage is 😘
Adam Savage! You never cease to surprise me. You never cease to surprise me in amazing ways. Your show, is like a light summer rain, when you are in love, after waking up to the best day of your life and you know it. And yet, here I sit, with a ridiculously big smile. Your enthusiasm is highly contagious and I wish you could infect everybody with a bit of mad happy weird intelligent positivity! The world would become a much more interesting, more beautiful and more peaceful place. And yet I can only speak for me. Thank you Adam for continuously making my days better! And Ursula le Guin and Steven Mold are two other people who continue to bring me the same joy. I wish you the best 2024 I can ever think of!
oh Adam, i think i speak for a lot of people when i say that,
you are already immortal, in fact, you are a movie/prop national and international, cause I'm in Denmark, treasure, absolutely you are 💯%
Not sure why it took me so long to find this channel but I love it.
Welcome… the water is warm. This channel will get you through some frustrating times… it’s sheer bliss to watch Adam narrate his way through the building processes…. And fully includes his screwups. Yes, he IS human 🤓
Happy Holidays to all the other Geeks around the world… thanks Adam and the Tested Team for a great year.
Adam I understand that meaning of falling asleep watching your favorite RUclips videos. Sorry but on nights that I'm switching from dayshift to night shift I have to stay up all night till four or five in the morning. I put on your one day build videos and it's so comforting I fall asleep. I wake as soon as it end and start it again. I end up watching it three times to watch the full video. Thank you for the great content. Happy holidays to you and the Tested Team.
ADAM! With Future Motion being so anti right to repair, I would love to see a one-day build where you drop in a VESC controller and free your OneWheel!!! I have done a few boards and everyone absolutely loves them :) The customization it offers you along with the added safety you get from the better controller is simply out of this world. Not to mention adding a remote for even more control and real time data from the controller makes the OneWheel so much more usable and amazing. With your machining abilities, you could do some really cool modifications from battery boxes to custom rails!
thumbs up for the Ursula recommendation
I love falling to sleep to YOUR videos brother! They make me feel like I’m not alone in in my room and really give me a sense of comfort. Even when your using loud tools. I sleep like a baby. ❤️
Never really warch these end of the year videos. Been a fan of you must remeber this for the last couple years, so happy to hear its one of adams favorite
Everyone at Tested, stay awesome!
I've been wishy-washy about getting the portable tire inflater for a couple years. Now, it's ordered and on the way! Thank you, Adam, for sharing your thoughts about all this cool stuff!
So was it worth it? I need something for my car.
@@Billo1281 yeah, it’s ok. It’s pressure reading is about 3 or so PSI low, compared to two other pressure gauges I compared it to, though. Problem is, I’m not sure who to trust as most accurate! One knock, as other commenters noted in reviews is, the hose is really short and the inflator hanging off the tire looks like the hose is kind of kinked. Part of my desire for an electric one is so I don’t have to bend over the whole time, to spare back pain. I just find something to prop it up. Finally, it’s definitely slower than a compressor and only a bit quieter.
Overall, I’m happy with the convenience and very compact size. Having it in the car is good peace of mind.
P.s. I also love the auto shutoff feature…I just hope I’m not over inflating.
As always, a pleasure!
Thanks for your list of tools. I know I'm not alone when I say, thanks for constantly inspiring me and the rest of your followers.
You and your family have a wonderful Christmas and a Happy new year ❤
My favorite moment from the channel this year is that outtake reel you’ve conveniently attached to the end of this. Adam’s ability to laugh at his inability to remember his store’s web address never ceases to bring a smile to my face.
Hearing you speak so glowingly about Mathematica in the Boston MOS hit me in the feels. Every time I go to the MoS that's always where I end up spending the most time, it's such a fun exhibit hall.
If Books Could Kill is fantastic. The older episodes of You're Wrong About with Michael Hobbs are really great as well.
My favourite thing of 2023 was finally noticing that labels on the inside of t-shirts and jumpers and things are always on the left, so I no longer have to peer all the way down to see the neck label (if it even exists) to know which way round it goes.
When the whole scrapbooking craze was going on fifteen or so years ago, my wife picked up one of those heat tools (branded "Marvy Uchida") to activate the embossing ink stuff. Over the years I've taken it over as my go-to tool for heat shrink tubing. I love it!
Happy New Year!!
I just saw Past Lives last week and it's one of my favourite films of the year. It felt like a Richard Linklater film and that's a very high compliment considering that Past Lives is Celine Songs first movie, which she not only wrote but also produced and directed herself! I can't want to see what she does next.
Thank you Adam and Norm and Tested crew you are all some of my biggest inspiration to be better and follow my passions in life so thank you so much i cant wait to see what you all have in store for 2024
Appreciate your comment so much … happy holidays!
Adam, you've improved your chances at immortality by being a truly genuine person who shares his passion and love for creating, with the the world. You've inspired myself and countless others.
Merry Christmas to you and all your family and all the folks at Tested. Thanks for all your great content. Thanks.
Those sure-shot sprayers have a little brass thing under the outer section of the nozzle that you can remove for laser beam mode, if you don't want a fine mist!
Adam is such a wholesome guy. I feel so fortunate we get to watch him on his youtube channel. happy holidays adam.
My all time favorite tool is an iced tea spoon. I make jewelry and the bowl of the spoon easily accesses the little mini ziploc bags I use for beads.
Very happy to see Ursula on your list. And twice, no less! Her books made me a better person.
That compressed air sprayer needs to get a Boba Fett helmet paint job, the dent, base color and the shape are so close! 🤣
Thanks for a highly entertaining year Adam! Happy Holidays to you and your family!!!!
Happy to see you on the tube brother
Adam, you are such a beautiful person, thanks for everything!
Adam, much love for highlighting The Left Hand of Darkness, by far my favorite book, LeGuin is one of the best authors of the 20th/21st Century and I hope lots of people pick up her work in in 2024.
Sure shot spayers have been around for many decades we use them at work for anti spatter for welding.
Amazing tips as usual.
I was fortunate to meet Ursula K. Leguin and get kissed on cheek after mentioning her as one of my favorite writers before knowing it was her.
You're not the only one who finds Steve Mould 's voice conducive to falling asleep. I remember I heard another big RUclipsr saying that he find his voice very "soothing". I think it was ElectroBoom
I use those tape dispensers at work. I love them.
Happy holidays to everyone! :) Wishing you all everything the best in 2024!
I was watching this movie the other day and loved it, and I thought, who fought for this movie ? Some amazing person fought to bring these moments to life (I am getting chills just thinking about it). And I was like "A man. A man fought for this movie." And then direction credit came up and then yup, there it was !
Oh my god i hear you 10000% on Tire Inflators!
I love the bloopers, you should do more of them!
OMG - How have I only just found Adam's channel. So exited to spend 2024 catching up. Adam thanks for this great video.
YES!!! Past Lives is my favorite film of the year. I’ve watched it 4 times so far this year. The Director’s Commentary is phenomenal as well!
Merry Christmas Adam & everybody at Tested!
I love his face when he introduces the number 3 bag, looks down, has a moment to realize it's number 4, and then course corrects. Fantastic
Ooh, that smoke tool might be really useful for bee keeping.
Great rundown of some excellent things!
"The Boy and the Heron" aka "How Do You Live" is Miyazaki's magnum opus. It may not be everyone's favorite but its hard to argue that it is not his best work. Must watch for any Studio Ghibli fan.
Road bike people all tutting and muttering about Presta when Adam describes a Schrader valve as a bicycle tyre valve.
My favourite thing this year, I finally spent some money upgrading a bunch of the devices around my computer - mouse, my keyboard, my music headphones, a few other things. Several of them were old and worn out and not working well, so I used some of my savings to upgrade to better ones.
Let me tell you, the difference between a "passable" tool that works but isn't particularly nice, and a "good" premium tool... for stuff you use all the time? it makes a huge difference. A cheap keyboard will let you type, and costs $10, but a keychron keyboard is $80 (cheap by "custom keyboard enthusiast" standards apparently) - and the difference is it makes the feel of typing *enjoyable*. Well worth the cost, and it'll last 10x as long as you can dismantle it and replace individual parts.
The headphones were expensive, Meze 99 classics... but... they're just an incredibly nice object. Functional, comfortable, and incredible at their job.
Got super excited when you talked about Ursula Leguin. ‘The ones who walked away from Omelas’ messed me up when I first read it. Love your channel, Adam!
OMG... numbers on travel pouches. Brilliant.
That tape dispenser is truly a wonderful piece of equipment. I'm considering getting 1 or 2 more, for different types of tape. I use it for basting tape when dewing, and having presets its a dream! Don't sleep on a $150 tape dispenser!
We’ve been using Sure Shot cans for about 2 decades. For us car guys that blow through a ton or Brakleen, they are a budget buddy. A gallon of brake cleaner goes a long way. We have 2; one w/ brake cleaner/ acetone and the other with just water. Great for hosing off brake fluid after a flush job.
Thanks for the coverage of bambu lab printers. We purchased one at work and it's been running like a dream. Upgrading from a makerbot replicator X2 / ender something. Print quality is amazing and software is apparently very intuitive someone else does the printing I'm not involved in that "yet". Merry Christmas everyone
"Champing" at the bit, Lemon. Horses "champ."
Those travel bags are nice. I have a ski bag that has a laptop sleeve style compartment, and I stitched a panel of velcro to it, I then have a similar set of bags that I stick to the velco inside the bag. That way they just aren't all shuffling around in the bag loose. I can then switch out the bags for whatever use I have for the bag that day. Going skiing, take my bags that have my ski tools, sunscreen etc. Traveling, switch out for my bag with my battery bank, passport etc.
I always like these lists, I am not a maker but there is always at least one thingie that becomes super useful in for regular use :D
I love Adam QVC speed rounds
The sure shot can also be used for liquids we use them in the mechanics world for spraying brake cleaner
A big thank you to Adam for turning me on to Bobby Fingers! What an incredible maker and the hilarious voice over commentary is laugh out loud funny. Thanks!
I have that exact same sprayer at work, you can also get a quick twist thumb nob for easy hand filling. best thing ever.
A Shrader valve is an automotive tire valve.
A Presta valve is a bicycle tire valve.
Your mostly correct in saying that, I mean the schrader valve is more common on average bikes where the presta valves is found more so on a bit more higher end or performance bike tires. the smaller post size not needing a big hole drilled and lighter than the schrader so being specifically made for bicycles to make the rim stronger and lighter, but schrader are the only valve used on car tires.
Honestly I hated having the presta valves on my single track bike it was so easy to bend the pin when doing the tire pressure
if you like Le Guin - checkout the illustrated huge Earthsea book - its gorgeous
Always thrilled to hear Le Guin mentioned
I just got done reading The Lathe of Heaven and The Left Hand of Darkness is on the list
The valved sprayer looks amazing! Canned air is such a bane on the environment - amazing to see an alternative that can fulfill a variety of purposes!
the bloopers were a highlight of so many highlights. Bravo
Bambu is really killing it lately. Im saving up for one to replace my ender3 thats nothing but trouble
I use old zipper bank bags great for Allen wrenches sockets wrenches ect . Wipe the names off with solvent .😊
Grosse Pointe Blank is one of my favourite movies!! The soundtrack was the very first CD I ever bought! I didn't own a CD player at the time, and had to use my uncle hifi system to copy it to cassette tape (shhhhh...😂)!!
3:10 encomium n. warm, glowing praise
Ursula LeGuin’s Nine Lives is another good one
For $10 more than the SureShot sprayer you can get a 2 pack of the competitors.
Vaper 19421 2-Piece Spot Spray Non-Aerosol Sprayer Set
Adam I’ve nominated you to be a part of the RUclipsr off road games. They are pairing hardcore off roaders with non off roader RUclipsrs. You would love it. Matt’s off road recovery is sponsor .
there is a lot of tire inflation and most of them can't run more then 10-20 min before you need to stop, let it cool down for over 1 hour or so and then continue. When I was looking for a tire pump for a car wheel, I was never able to inflate my tire 10-20 min limit. It may be able to support the PSI, but not the time it required to feel a tire from flat. So, if you have a repair kit for flat, depending on all tire pump, they all have different air flow/ min ratio, so the smaller the unit, the lower and more time it will take. Just make sure that you get a pump that can pump a tire from flat in one shot. No one want to find out on the side of the road, that the pump you bought cannot inflate a tire flat in one time and you half to wait over 1 hour before you can continue.
You left off Cutting Edge Engineering's youtube channel! It's the best "maker" channel where he fixes heavy equipment in interesting ways. Plus, they have Homie, the dog.
it was so great to see you at makers fair again and so awsome to have in vallejo
*Hot tip* I use the same SureShot Aerosol sprayer,
I cut a thread onto the Schrader valve, because it has a smooth outside, but after threading I can screw on a cool valve cap instead of the rubber cap
0.305-32 (.305x32) is the size die nut you need- Amazon
those sureshot canisters are great. I used those in the shop for years when I worked in an auto shop, we used them for brake clean. Extremely nice to have.
Grosse Pointe Blank! YES! I don’t want to get into a semantic argument about it… But YES!!! 🤣👍🏼😎
I absolutely love Ursula K. Le Guin, A wizard of Earthsea ❤
