Making the BLAST SHIELD from MYTHBUSTERS!!
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 сен 2024
- I've needed this shield to keep me safe from my dangerous projects! I wanted to be a Mythbuster growing up. Since that show doesn't exist anymore, I'm taking all of my favorite elements from that show and merging them into this channel: learning new things, solving problems with my hands, science, engineering, danger and all the ridiculousness that went with that show.

Yeah it will definitely be a thing.
He should show more skin
6:20 hot diggity
Found you through Alec Steele and I’m so glad I did! Awesome truck by the way!
Thanks!
I found Alec through here :) funny how that works :)
Dude you are the most under the radar channel right now, keep doing what you are doing cause the big leagues are coming! We all believe in you!
Thanks so much!
Waiting to see adam comment on this. He seems to always find these kinds of videos.
Hello Tyler, My name is Allen Craft and I can tell you precisely what that blast shield is made of as the company I worked for is responsible for creating it.
Those are 1 inch thick LEXAN panels mounted in an Aluminum frame that were created at the NOCTURNE Lighting & Video shop for the stage for JOURNEY for their 1983 tour "FRONTIERS."
Those particular panels were the top of the drum riser that Steve Smith's kit sat on. The rest of that stage was eventually sold off as scrap AL.
I was part of the shop crew at the time of construction and was personally there as Neal's Studio Engineer / Manager when Adam and Jaime came to the "Garage / Warehouse Sale" Neal Schon was having to clear out old unused bits of stage and sets. That was 1994.
I didn't know who they were at the time, but recognized them immediately when their show came on the air. How you gonna forget those 2 characters? Then when I saw the panels being used as a shield it all made sense.
NOCTURNE was JOURNEY's Stage and Lighting company that also designed and built stages and lighting rigs for other bands throughout the 80's and 90's.
Tyler, let me tell you: You got everything: The charisma, the will, the format... I look forward to seeing your show. You got a Fan here in Brazil.
I love the sound of the cranberry sauce plug sliding down the inside of the tube.
Just seeing the thumbnail, that made my whole day, oh the memories of myth busters, I’ve watched every single episode of that show
That truck is awesome!
Thank you!
I believe
Jamie Hyneman said that the blast shields weighed around 150 lbs each, and I saw something on Wired that said they weighed around 185 lbs, in case you were wondering.
Cool video, well produced. 2:00 Tyler t shirt slogan - "Measure once, cut once, weld twice." : ) Well engineered build. Mahalo for sharing! 🐒
Haha! I like that phrase
I’m pretty sure They told you not to try this at home Tyler. 🤣
Thats NEVER stopped me😁
@@TylerBellMakes and it never should!!!
You made my childhood dream (Mythbusters blast shield) your own reality :) I'm so happy for you
Where's @TESTED? I know Adam and team have Tyler on their radar... How could they not?
Been following this channel for a month or two, this is the kind of channel that I always find after they have 1m plus subs. I feel like I'm in the in or something 👍
you were on my recomeded! awsome channel, youre not even viral, this is so cool!
Awesome!
The hard work and polish that you put into your videos really shows!
Nice work Tyler!
Hope to see this channel grow, would be awesome if Adam Savage see's your channel and when things a back to normal if you 2 could do a collab
Awesome! Glad to totally support these kinds of crazy projects! Keep going Tyler!👍👍
I would strongly recommend testing a frame to destruction before using it for projects.
Not just because testing things to destruction could make a good video that would temporarily satisfy my internalised boundless rage, but so you can have a very concrete idea of when it just isnt safe enough. (Even for smaller projects.)
Excellent video. I love your goal of being a new mythbuster. That show is the GOAT! Keep up the fantastic work.
Thank you!
For very dangerous stuff it might even be better to angle the panels towards the thing that can project shrapnel towards you. It might even help if something heavy is about to push the panels from the frames by changing the angle the force is applied to those screws.
Very cool project!
Like to see that you're just as excited for saftey equipment as all your other projects
Have I subscribed?
Myth Confirmed!
Excited for what crazy things are coming next and glad to know that you're planning to keep yourself safe doing it.
As an Alec Steele fan I'm directly noticing the nice Steele pants. Looking smart and playing safe is cool.
Putting a bar in the corner for a little more space is a great idea. Gonna save that one for when I need it (:
Bloody marvellous Tyler love the pace and content dude 👊🏻👊🏻
Thanks man!!
Now you have the nigh impossible task of finding an interesting and doable myth that M5 hasn't tackled yet!
Good luck!
Hot diggity, am I glad I subscribed!
Did you say hot diggity🥵🙏
You made a really nice recreation of the first blast chamber Adam and Jamie used during the early days of Mythbusters. It too consisted of 1/4" polycarbonate, with either a steel or aluminum frame. Not really sure which, I'm guessing steel. It should protect you pretty well.
Make yourself a big label to go one one corner "Quarter Inch! Is it time to upgrade yet?" That way it will always remind you that such a day will come :)
follow your childhood dreams no one can take that away👍 nice truck btw
So much fun! I really enjoy how you work through problems and use knowledge from one area to solve a problem in another. Raining cranberry sauce was just a bonus. Haha. Loved the look on your face in first one. Looking forward to the adventures ahead!
Haha thanks Michael!
Ahh the Evolution Saw, how much do you love that thing? I just got one and it's amazing! I use it all the time in my vids.
Keep up the great work! Also, great work with the multiple shots when doing a task. Very engaging.
I would suggest welding some flat bar inside the frames both sides so they clamp the poly (essentially dividing every frame into 4 windows), or just use thicker poly.
Great video, i enjoyed it!
Great video, just great video! I don't think there's anything more I can say that others haven't already
So glad that I'm part of the sub-1 million subscribers because you sure as hell will get there and I can't wait to follow you on that journey!
Thank you!
1:30 Love those cheeky Alec Steele trousers
that is such legit joy pulling off the plastic to see the final, clear result and the first cranberry tests. If it weren't for the potential projects I can imagine, I'd be excited just by proxy alone.
You’re killing it TB! Love it!
Thanks Erin!!!!
Not only are your projects great but also are the videos such a good quality. Really love it
Thank you!
6:32 You gave it a Splat!
1:31 those Steele pants though!!
That truck is awesome
I loved the myth busters when they were in TV a few years ago, afterwards I forgot about them and this is amazing! Keep up your great work!
Adam savage has a youtube channel called tested
I would turn it opposit way around. Because now if something hits it, all the emergy needs to be transfered to frame trough screws. Opposit way, entire edge would be supported by frame itself, therefore it would take much more force to break it.
I did the rear window of my Volvo wagon with polycarbonate, 4mm, to match the glass the vandals smashed that used to be in there. I can punch it as hard as I can, and even though it's only glued in with silicone and the tailgate is aluminium and not overly strong, it just booms like a drum and bounces right back :-) No major scratches, yet, and rain beads on it like it's a brand new car :-D
Glad i was able to discover this channel so early. Keep up the great content tyler, so much potential in this channel. Cant wait to see it grow
Thanks so much!
@@TylerBellMakes it will do that fast
I love Mythbusters
Easily my new favorite RUclipsr! Always excited to see your videos!!
Wow, thanks!
And that truck! Yes
Found your channel today and I've watched like 13 videos already. You really are an independent mythbuster!
I can't wait to see what you have in store for us! Keep up the great work Tyler!
6:30 And it'll never be the same again.
I love the truck.
You know what comes next.... CNC milling machine (and maybe lathe) for precision and unusual shapes.
BTW great channel. Keep up with good work!
god damn that is a nice truck, am i the only one geeking out over it?
1/4 inch way too thin. Do not let this give you a false sense of security.
He mentions that in the video, that he will need something much thicker later on
Can always add extra sheets
That truck though...
that’s a sweet truck
Cool build. And if I did not mention already cool car too!
You might want to use the shield from the other side. Right now you are only relying on the fasteners, but if you used them the other way you have the angle iron holding against the impact.
Love this! I love your creativity and joy in learning and building! Love the self promotion as an "ad", gets us ready for when the big boys sponsor you! (Which they will.) Can't wait to watch this channel grow!
Thank you!
Tyler that is very cool! It's so good see how much fun you're having building things and growing your channel. Keep up the great work!
Thanks man!!
New Years is coming up Tyler bell, do I sense some kind of firework makings happening? :)
That would be fun!
Ummm can we get a walk around of that 4runner!!
Ok but that truck is fucking beautiful I wanna see more of it.
Ahh yes the good old "Bulletproof" glass.
More like Bullet Resist glass.
Glass+Polymer+Glass+Polymer+Glass and so on to stack until its big as a box.
But it will di the trick with such composite layers.
6:15 I thought this was supposed to be a family-friendly channel.
“Waaaay smoother” needed a ridiculously awkward punch in on the slide. Lol
I once saw one that had one of them metal street grates attached to it for reinforcement.
I love this channel!!! Tyler keep making videos please!!!
Will do!
@@TylerBellMakes Yay!!!! haha thanks.
perhaps a 3 part section of triangles on top could protect you from falling debris as well? just a thought.
We have video proof! Playing with dollies is Tyler's dream job!!
Instead of adjusting the angle on your saw, leave it set square. Clamp your fireball monster square to it to get 45 degrees. Use the minion squares for 30/60.
I think those long hinge pins will get bent a little, which will make them annoying to use. Suggest you make a shorter pin for each hinge.
That truck is sweet!
Such an underrated chanell. And... that car at the beginning was sick. What is it??
Thanks! 1964 gmc
6mm is kind of too thin. Add an angle or c channel to support the middle. Ideally also tripling the thickness of the centre panel. Alternative is rotating the structure so incoming fragments are making a glancing blow, ~45° than hitting flatly.
So much fun! I have said, anyone who wanted to be a Mythbuster, is a Maker!
Definitely!
Nice sounds at 6:20
Seems like we got a young Colin furze here! Not quite when it comes to the projects, but I feel just as entertained.
Keep it up man!! I love your projects, ur a gem!
Thank you!
I use onlinemetals.com as well. Usually not for big stuff because I can get that close to home but I order Copper and I just order some O1 and W1.
Great video Tyler
Thanks Rob!
If you make a v2. I'd make purely a wedge with no center flat section. Not as great for viewing but much safer with greater danger present.
*sees dude wearing a Laura Kampf shirt, smashes subscribe* Good taste. if you ever go a level up on this project, you could do double layer sandwiched PolyCarb in a semi-floating frame.
Nice one Tyler and a good creative save with the pins mate. 👍
I just found this via the recommended page, and I'm so glad I did! I hope you can upgrade the panel thickness sooner than later. Seems like a good investment, considering.
What kind of welder do you use ?
i am new here and these videos inspire me more and more to create cools thing 😂😁❤
Awesome production quality man. Keep up the good work! But make sure to upgrade the thickness of those windows
Your crazy, I like that. Can't wait to see more.
That car is gorgeous my god
That's a great tip to use a filler piece in the miters. I can't wait to see what the projects you need this shield for
Thanks Johnny!
The more steps closer to what you love the more closer you are to becoming it
that welding angle-jig thing you have is pretty neat
loving the Mythbusters-Esque background music too! ^w^
Its from Jason at Fireball Tools
This is something amazing content you’ll be huge before you know it!
Thanks!
Awesome!
Ooooohhhh!! This is EXCITING! Careful with the shield tho. Don't wanna become a statistic for shield related injuries
Holy crap inch and a half?? That's nuts, I'm trying to imagien a piece of polycarbonate as thick as a 2x4 and it's just not computing in my brain 😂😂
