I'd like to see an episode where you experiment with, or test some diy personal insulation. Things like newspaper, aluminum foil, bubble wrap etc... With Modern Rogue HQ being in Texas, and considering the ice storm that just ripped through the woefully unprepared southern states, I think it would be an especially appropriate topic for a video. Granted, it would feel retroactive, but lets be honest, people are more likely to watch 'how to' videos after they've been through a bad situation, rather than before, myself included. It's literally why I'm making this suggestion. I live in South West Louisiana....it was rough.
I see the effects of the glue sniffing had caught up to them. “The hot box make plastic go stab stab.” No matter how well ventilated the warehouse, if you put the glue 2 centimeters from your nose and intentionally sniff it, it won’t help.
As a Brandon, I am both honored and offended that you would suggest I would go after your prison wallet. I would challenge you to a duel, if I weren't so afraid of the milk juggalo. You guys are awesome, thanks for the recognition of the destructive power of Brandons everywhere!
True story: In my house, it was called "chipped beef on toast" until I was a teenager. At that point Mom dropped all pretense and it was shit-on-a-shingle forever after!
My job is to turn plastic pellets into plastic film. And yes, we recycle a ton of what we call repro scrap pellets. There is one particular blend of film that actually is about 30% milk jugs. We rarely use it because, although it's a strong material (HDPE), it clogs the extruder screen packs (which means stopping production to replace them), it causes gels in every blend that it's in, and it smells like old milk.
"Want me to stand on it? I'll climb up there and stand on it." "Actually... how about we put it on the floor and stand on it?" "That's a better idea" Had me fucking ROLLING
Or better yet, freeze the milk in the bottle or fill with water, then tie a rope securely around the bottle thru the handle, and then swing it round like some sorta wannabe weapon
Hi you two, I just wanna say thank you both. You guys have gotten me through so many anxiety attacks it’s insane. Your good humour and consistently interesting videos have walked me through some dark places, thank you so much, you deserve all your success.
The two of you design knives like people who’ve never seen a knife before, but read a description of one in a book once. It’s awful, but makes for great content.
I actually have been melting HDPE for a while. Normally I cook it at around 280-350 depending on the quantity. I built a wooden mold that I use for pressing it into bricks I can work with like wood. I also suggest using parchment paper between the plastic and whatever you’re cooking it on so I’d doesn’t stick. As far as melting it takes different times depending on how much you’re melting, but they don’t all have to be the same color for them to be properly melted. Sometimes the white jugs become clear, but other times they stay white. Cooling should be done by leaving it in the mold with constant pressure and allowed to cool slowly. I’ve tried cooking in the freezer and they warp. Things I found that melt well: milk/juice jugs, detergent jugs, shampoo/conditioner bottles, oil containers, and shopping bags. Make sure to THOROUGHLY wash these things out before cooking them. You don’t want any residue (especially the oil) left in while cooking the plastic. Also if using shopping bags it takes a LOT. I made a 4”x3”x1.5” brick and it took around 75 walmart bags. It’s a lot of fun, but be very safe.
HDPE forms toxic fumes above 360°F you should keep it at 3:50 and when it turns completely transparent smash it in between something like wood or steel
Ventilation doesn’t just mean open space or clear vents, it means MOVING AIR. I build and paint miniatures for D&D and 40k. There’s plenty of times when I’ve almost collapsed because I got into the zone and didn’t realize that I couldn’t breath because of my glue or paint lol. A small fan works. I even use a small oscillating space heater that I turn off the heating element on.
By the way. If you're actually improvising don't go fancy with handguards and stuff. It might weaken the overall stucture (depending on the material and treatment of course) and you may not always have time for testing... Better have a shitty shive than an exceptionally useless well made knife. And keep on going as you are with the modern rogue. The content alternating a lot from one update to the next is very refreshing.
For real hahahh. That huge hand guard may be good for stabby action but makes it almost impossible to use for slicy action unless you're standing by an edge.
I love how while hammering he almost hit his hand while he was hammering not near his hand but could get really close to Brian's hand and hammer just fine
PSA: Don't use a steel grinder on plastic unless you want to ruin your grindingwheel, kids! But yeah, good episode! But you should be a little more confident! You guys got this, don't worry. (but cautious actions are still right actions, don't forget!)
Jordan Breeding from Cracked mentioned you make great videos, and you helped them out with stuff. I checked your videos out because of that; but stayed because he's right!
Not exactly sure if y’all are aware of this, but typically the left side of the grinder is the roughing wheel while the right is the finishing wheel. Just two different “grits” of stone/carbide/diamond/etc.
Cream chipped beef on toast is delicious. Cut the toast into a bunch of squares and pile the squares up before applying cream chipped beef. That was how my dad served it when I was a kid.
When I was a kid, there used to be a frozen sliced meat with gravy in a pouch that you would boil in water (later microwave) then open up and put on top of toast. I think that went away sometime in the 80s or 90s.
Nice to see you peeps posting...hope you and your families and the whole gang/crew are doing as well as you can down in Texas...while I'm sure you guys can manage; being modern rogues and all, and having several channels dedicated to survival and hacking... I would imagine doing it for a bit in front of a camera is different then actually having to do it to not freeze to death. At least it should make for inspiration for future videos; stay safe guys.
QUICK FACTS! unless you are using special techniques or a grinding wheel that is rated for soft materials, you should not use a grinding wheel to grind plastic wood or soft metals such as aluminum. The reason behind this is the wheel itself is very porous and will be clogged, possibly causing a fracture or explosion of the wheel... which is spinning at 5000 to 6500 feet per second. Always wear protective equipment and stay to the side of the grinding wheel.
when one of those grinding wheels get clogged with plastic/wood, it just becomes less effective while having its pores clogged (which you can clean just grinding a little bit of metal) it doesn't actually have a risk to generate enough friction to make it heat up considerably, but when grinding aluminum the aluminum can melt and coat the wheel with molten aluminum, that generates more friction and rapidly heats up the wheel which can cause it to explode. apart from that, yes, always wear protective equipment when using one of those things, they can throw off sparks/chunks of metal at pretty high speeds.
@@truefoxtrot2884 good to know! I am just a hobbiest, but while learning i was told that its was not wise to grond plastic, thanks for enlightening me!
Random bits of data fr5om someone who used to work plastics: HDPE, the stuff milk jugs are made of, fuses (it doesn't really melt) at 420-440F. The hotter it gets the smellier it gets but there's nothing carcinogenic. Not good to breathe anyway. The faster it's quenched (brought to room temp typically in a water bath) the better the edge it will hold, but the more brittle it will be. There's not much difference between fast and slow for the purposes of say, this video.
They should probably just follow what that knife making channel does, since that guy has made some crazy knives out of a lot of things. Cardboard, shells, Bismuth from Peptol, you name it
Jason: "I'm going to be the Michelangelo of trash knives." Brian: "I'd be a Milk Juggalo." Like watching the worst contestants on Forged in Fire. If they were blindfolded. Plus drunk.
a quicker safer way to shred up milk jugs, get an industrial/heavy duty paper shredder (like the one that can handle credit cards), cut the milk jugs into large almost paper sized sheets, feed them through one at a time and slowly.

Knife brand: "Lactose Intolerance"?

I think this project would have gone better if you found a throwing knife template, and use a scroll saw to cut out the knife
My favorite thing to turn into knifes are pre made knifes it just takes on hit with a apple and it’s good

They should do an episode on shoes. "Cause I'm a Modern Brogue!"
⬆️ What he said!
@@Limulouse streamlining the episodes maybe?
This
@@Limulouse I don't normally side with trolls, but that shit made me laugh!
New gameshow idea: Can It Knife?!
First episode: Turning Trever into a knife in an act of Desperate Defense.
I’d be happy to see that just to see Trever again.
Well, he is a pretty sharp dresser. ;D
Not sure if you could make Trever a knife, but he could make you a screwdriver 😉
I see the effects of the glue sniffing had caught up to them. “The hot box make plastic go stab stab.”
No matter how well ventilated the warehouse, if you put the glue 2 centimeters from your nose and intentionally sniff it, it won’t help.
"using the hot box to make stab stab plastic thing", sounds like Brian has gone full Ork
Nah, full Ork would be more like "WE'S GONNA MAKE A BIG STABBA WIT DA FIRE BOX!"

Day one of me asking them to reinstate 'Cause I'm a Modern Rooooogguuuee" in the intro
I’d support that

Yes
I support. I miss that
"This all seems like a bad idea." Brian has a rare moment of clarity.
Glue sniffing got rhem good. Hahaha
Trash Knife Michelangelo sounds like the name of an indie punk album.

We need a separate counter for every time Brian says 'I need the dexterity'. It's basically his motto

Exactly my thoughts put into text.
Yep, they only know it as a passing glance.
Machine: *has a singular red button*
Jason: "how do you turn this on?"
Also they might want to use sandpaper rather than stone grinding...
The weapon making vids are my absolute favorites but every vids a banger👍🏾

Modern rogue: “Heated plastic releases toxic fumes”
Me who works at an LLDPE mouldingfactory: “Yes they do”
more knife episodes needed. thanks guys! stay safe.
Love that with everything they did to squish the plastic, they didn't think to do it with the vice RIGHT NEXT TO THEM. But that's par for the course.
HDPE forms toxic fumes above 360°F you should keep it at 3:50 and when it turns completely transparent smash it in between something like wood or steel

You boys HAVE to do a safe cracking episode, like the old dial ones? Massive fan, keep up the great work:))
I’m not sure if I should be disappointed or proud of the guys for not resetting the injury counter on a knife episode
"This all seems like a bad idea."
A motto for The Modern Rogue!
"Start driving with no plan of where we're going."
Maybe two mottos...
"Almost the proper tool for the job."
Too many mottos. I give up.
Mine is " I knew something bad would happen but I made sure anyway"
Bless you for being able to pronounce conch properly and for making a Lord of the Flies reference.

"The laziness is kicking in" best soundbyte cutaway ever
Brian designs knives like a person who has been described a knife but has never actually seen one himself.
For real hahahh. That huge hand guard may be good for stabby action but makes it almost impossible to use for slicy action unless you're standing by an edge.
They did what they were trying to do on the first try, it was effective, and nobody got hurt? Gold star, I'm impressed.

Day 6 of reminding the Modern Rogue to do another radio video!
Jordan Breeding from Cracked mentioned you make great videos, and you helped them out with stuff. I checked your videos out because of that; but stayed because he's right!
By the dark gods guys, get the ultimate rogue power-tool; a rotary tool.
yes, these dudes definitely NEED to buy a Dremel or something similar, wonder how many time that will reset the injury counter tho.
We’re a 1.3mill community that at this point are just improvised weapon masters who really like to make cocktails and I’m all for it!
The Modern Rogue is a professional upcycler.
Hope all is well in Austin, TX. Much love. Stay safe. ❤️
finally a video harboring interesting content from the rogues
Making a knife from plastic, using two sets of separating scissors, or effectively 4 knives! Brilliant.
Brian: (turns temp. up to 400)
Jason: That's fume level, my friends! (Continues to stand right next to the "hot box".)
Not exactly sure if y’all are aware of this, but typically the left side of the grinder is the roughing wheel while the right is the finishing wheel. Just two different “grits” of stone/carbide/diamond/etc.

Me: already halfway through a milk curtain and with a heat gun

Cream chipped beef on toast is delicious. Cut the toast into a bunch of squares and pile the squares up before applying cream chipped beef. That was how my dad served it when I was a kid.
