  • Time for some Star Wars prop building--Adam Savage makes an upgrade to one of his favorite costumes! Adam's never been satisfied with the original bandolier strap and satchel he made for his Chewbacca cosplay, so today he fabricates new ones from scratch with metal and leather. And of course Adam hides an easter egg into this Wookiee prop!

      I wish the U.S. would just bite the bullet and convert to metric already. I know it'll be a pain to change everything, but it'll be worth it. The imperial system is just so obnoxious and I'm tired of it.

      Pedro Bergamaschi welcome to our planet then, it's nice to be one of the first people to make contact with your species, there are a few key things you'll need to do to understand us earthlings. The first thing you'll need to do will be to watch Star Wars, 456, then 123 if you really want to watch them, they are worse and not really as important, then 7, then Rogue one. A better system might be to not watch 123, start with rogue one, then 4567.

      ninjanathaniel Imperial is much easier for doing math with, such as dividing 1/8" by 2, but whats 7.67mm/2 off the top of your head?

    • @xjvr713

      7 / 2 + (67 / 100) / 2
      3 + 100 / 200 + 67 / 200
      3 + 167/200
      Its not really comparable though because it is such a large and unwieldy fraction. If it was 7.67 inches it would be just as hard to do.

    • @jasperfk
      @jasperfk 7 років тому +9

      Darqk I think you misunderstood. He's saying Imperial is quicker for mental maths. For example, let's say you've a bolt that is 3/8ths. You need to know exactly what half of that is, simply double the denominator for 3/16ths. Imperial is easy to do in your head. In metric, 3/16ths is equal to about 4.762mm. Most regular joes can't divide that off the top of their head - I know I can't without a few seconds to think or maybe write it down. Both measurement systems have their benefits.

    • @adamrasmussen3521
      @adamrasmussen3521 7 років тому +75

      Justin S, You really can't generalize like that. Say you have a 40mm screw. Dividing that by two is easy, but 1.57480315 inches divided by two is harder and not possible to write as a usable fraction. It is ridiculous to assume everything will be clean fractions, the world seldom acts like that.

    I see a lot of arguments over the measurement comment. So let's brake it down.
    What feels more sane?
    IMPERIAL: 1 foot = 12 inches, 1 yard = 3 feet, 1 mile = 1760 yards.
    METRIC: 1 centimeter = 10 millimeters, 1 decimeter = 10 centimeters, 1 meter = 10 decimeter, 1 kilometer = 1000 meters.
    You choose.

    • @caseyclymore4417
      @caseyclymore4417 7 років тому

      gruilekzo well it's quite obvious what the answer is, we have ten fingers so a base ten system would make the most sense. It's what we were raised to, and simply because it is a simpler system doesn't mean it switching to it would be simple. It's like English, it would make sense if every switched to it considering how it's a trade and business language on the international market, but you would run into issues trying to convince the citizens of smaller, less globally involved countries to switch to it.

    • @gruilekzo
      @gruilekzo 7 років тому +3

      Casey Clymore Yes, that would be a good argument if wasn't for the fact that only 3 countries in the entire world still use Imperial units. Those countries are Liberia, Myanmar and USA. So in this case these three would be the "less globally involved countries" as you put it.

    Why seal the boxes when it could actually be used for storage, lol.

    • @Wearyman
      @Wearyman 7 років тому +3

      Because the design of the bandolier is actually crap. It wouldn't hold jack in real life. The boxes would just fall out all the time. Real weapon bandoliers are designed to hold rifle rounds, pistol rounds or shotgun shells, all of which have a tubular shape with a point (or blunt) on one end and a LIP on the other end. The round or shell goes into the bandolier "business end" down, using both a tight friction fit and the lip of the casing to prevent the round or shell from falling out.
      In order to hold a box or square shaped item on a leather bandolier you would actually need something with a "bag with flap" design along these lines: img0.etsystatic.com/013/0/6786260/il_570xN.426145624_bar4.jpg However the Star Wars prop designers didn't do that, probably because it would be much more difficult to do than the simple "straps and snaps" setup they ended up with. Also, I suspect that the more "sci-fi" look of the "metal" boxes affected the decision as well.

    • @JD2jr.
      @JD2jr. 7 років тому +8

      He could have just riveted in the lids, though, between the lid and the top strap nothing would move until you unsnapped the strap...

    • @yorgle
      @yorgle 7 років тому

      or done that first, then rivet the box to the lid, so you get the proper look to them too, and it holds all together.

    • @xandercyrus2303
      @xandercyrus2303 7 років тому +3

      'The boxes would just fall out all the time.' - Why would they? They're actually fixed by the tension of the matched outer stripe. 'Real' wookie bandolier doesn't have snaps. So the boxes can only slide, and only with some effort.

  • @johndrachenberg2254
    @johndrachenberg2254 6 років тому

    If I was investing this much time into a project like this, I'd have sanded the edges of the aluminum... a gash from that could be nasty. Also, I wish the rivets holding the metal boxes together were on the adjacent sides because then they'd be covered up by the top strap. Actually, since this is a essentially a professional prop intended to be used in cosplay, I think the boxes could have been used for storage. The lids seems tight enough just with the friction fit, plus the top strap would help hold them closed too. I've never been to a big convention, so the following might be bad ideas, but some suggestions for what they could hold are: driver's license / paper money / credit cards / hotel keycard / keys (in the most secure, possibly locked box), ibuprofen, mini permanent markers, battery banks (bonus points for integrating a hidden USB charging port into the outside), action camera, arduino with Wookie sounds / translation / audio effects, Nerf ammo ?, salt and pepper / spork / compass / firesteel and tinder (Wookies must be survivalists at heart, right?), emergency costume repair kit (needles, thread, snaps, etc.), or just... actual snacks. Oh hey, toothpicks. You never have one when you really need one, right? USB drives and SD cards might be nice to have too. OK, I'll stop. I still miss Will.

    • @MrSpookersMcGeeThe1st
      @MrSpookersMcGeeThe1st 7 років тому +12

      Of course we _can_ use it. I use it routinely for chemistry. The snag is that it's not widely used by most Americans. Talk to Americans in metric terms, and most of them will get confused.
      If a Brit came to America, and an American asked the Brit how far a drive is from city X to city Y, and the Brit told them the distance in kilometers, they'd get a pretty bemused look. If my wife asks me to get a half gallon of milk, I don't ask her to instead say 1.893 liters. She'd probably slap me if I did.
      Is the imperial system inane? Yes. Is the metric system better? Yes. But imperial is what we are taught to use, it's what we are told to use, and so most people use it, and because most Americans use it, the rest of us do as well so we can relate information to each other more efficiently.
      I know the rest of the world resents us for using imperial, but hey, a lot of us do too.

    • @LJW55
      @LJW55 6 років тому +4

      If a Brit came to America you would pretty much be talking the same language as they use Miles, Gallons, Inches, Feet & Yards for measurement. Now if it was just about the rest of the world (I'm from Australia), it would be the metric system. It would be soooo easy for the US to change to metric, I mean you already use it with your dollars & cents!! We in Aus changed our money from pounds, shillings and pence to dollars & cents in 1966 and then measurements in 1974... There was a little confusion at first especially with the elderly but now of course no problems.

      It is not a purse, it is a satchel. I believe Indiana Solo would agree.

    Totally saw that coming, as a result of using the thicker leather for the retaining strap.

    Hey Adam! You can buy a magnetic compass with a floating dial on it to get perfect angles on your break.

    I'm a huge fan of tested and i'd like to see you do a build of doc's rifle from back to the future part III but this is just a suggestion.

    I love the imperial system for measuring distance. Miles are less arbitrary than meters. The inch, as it turns out, is a good unit of measurement when dealing with things at our scale. For example, machinists work in thousands of an inch. Yep, decimal inches. Many tolerances, thermal expansions, etc are expressed very cleanly in inches. Reality likes inches.

    Just because of the signed "Wookie Treats" stickers, I would pay thousands for this exact bandolier.
