  • Adam gives a tour of his personal office inside his workshop in this One Day Build project to build a custom window into his office door. It's a shop improvement project that breathes new life into this aged door that's had all manner of stuff nailed to it over the years. It's also a chance for Adam to test a new tool he's never used before: an oscillating multitool!

      Adam,
      If you take a flat head screwdriver and cut a slot in it the screwdriver becomes a tack puller. Sharpen the tip a bit to make it easier to get under staples and then twist the handle to twist and pull them out.
      I worked in furniture manufacturing for about 8 years. It's a must have tool there.

    Adam Savage recommending a tool that he purchased and used of his own volition is worth so much more than any number of sponsored users praising a tool. I find his expertise in making and building props such a boon because he has such a broad range of experience building that he can find the proper use case for any well-crafted tool. The sincerity that he has when talking about the strong points of a tool is a breath of fresh air in a browsing experience polluted with partnerships and sponsored products everywhere you turn.
    I understand that people need to make a living and I cannot fault them for taking money from a willing advertiser. However, buying and using a tool with your own resources and using it on your own time rather than finding a project that suits the tool specifically makes me feel confident that Adam isn't selling me snake oil and genuinely wants me to know about something that could potentially make my building experience that much more pleasant.

      Well the stapler has already had its moment in the sun. I'm astonished Adam's never used a multitool before! It's just his kind of thing with dozens of oddball uses; you'd think he'd have a one-day-build about making a holster for it to be in his EDC! 🤪
      I avoided these things for a while for the same reasons he gave, but after reno-ing my attached studio with all the outlet holes in drywall and awkward trim cuts, I've come to appreciate mine greatly. Check out SeeJaneDrill's video about re-cutting the teeth on the attachments, otherwise you'll go broke replacing them as they lose teeth constantly. Also, I recommend getting one with an attachable plunge base to make accurate 90° cuts when needed.

    • @charleshanson9467
      @charleshanson9467 4 года назад +13

      I have a silicone brush for glue. The glue in the center of the bristles never dries and so getting the dried glue out is a multi-step process to let each layer dry out. Actually annoying. I just wash it with warm water when I'm done. Water WILL dry all the way through, and it doesn't mess up the water based glue if you use it wet.

      @bjornschmidt8231 4 года назад +19

      I was really shocked to hear that you use acid brushes only once and trash them. While you can certainly afford it, it is extremely wasteful and the exact opposite of sustainable.
      Whether you continue using acid brushes or go for the silicone variety, I suggest you dump them in a water-filled jar when you're done with them and include cleaning out the brushes and emptying the jar to the daily workshop shutdown checklist.
      That way whatever stock of acid brushes you have left will last you forever...

    • @ThePhoenixAscendant
      @ThePhoenixAscendant 4 года назад +7

      I have a Sili-brush I bought from Amazon, and the bristles spread the glue wonderfully, and the blade on the other side gives me perfect edge clean-up! And cleaning the brush is super simple. I just stub it into warm running water and it flushes right out. If it dries on the bristles, it peels out no problem. And for less than $7 it's a fantastic product!

    @36:00 - I found out doing some foamcoating for an escape room set that if you mix latex-based products with vinyl-based products is makes a thiccc gooey ball of slime that is no good for anything but is fun to play with I guess. Maybe one of your glues had latex?

    I just worked out why I love watching your one day builds. You encourage me to go out and buy/collect/hoard tools. That door will never fall apart but must now weight much more will all those awesome nails in it from your nail gun. I too am in the process of repairing a door in my house and I too used far too many Brad nails and staples, but now I know it will never fall apart. Keep up the fantastic work love your channel, keep well from Cronulla Beach, Sydney Australia.

    As soon as Adam put down his big boy square I could instantly see why it was not straight: he leaned on it for about a sec. Long enough to warp it. Hey I’m guilty of this too: I’m thinking an idea for a new badge?

    Love my oscillating tool. Discovered the hard way you can wear through a diamond grit circular blade going through tile if you aren't paying attention.
    Also, can I use the "sometimes crunchy is the flavor of the day" for table signage?
