Hi from 2023. Fight Club was anti-corporate. It's a small miracle that it even got to the silver screen, given by - you know - who funded it (corporate suits).
@@ABSOLICE Tom was a frequent guest on their HBO show and in one episode they explicitly cited him as their mentor, their guru, their yoda who taught them everything they know. And in another episode (sorry, memory is a bit hazy) Van also said that they’d modeled their studio on Tom’s. The Neistat Brothers would go their separate ways and Casey took over the studio in the end.
with out tom sachs there would be no van or Casey. the influence is undeniable. then again.... i feel like adam savage is also influenced by tom @@slothguy_

I may have missed this last time. That solder joint would not meet the mechanical standards of the Western Union or Lineman Splice. I would be interested to know the standard of the studio.
Yep I was taught Western Union / Lineman splices in the Army and had to use 'em in the bitter cold of Korea, and they worked. It was splice or run new lines and I was not going to do that.
9:50 Sorry to be a Negative Nancy, but that's an AWFUL way to make a solder splice. Most people use too much solder but that's not enough. The wires should be twisted to make a good mechanical connection before making the soldered electrical connection. This weakly overlapping attempt at a butt splice with not enough solder will fail if you look at it cross eyed. Don't even think of exposing it to any flexing or vibration. And that nasty brown flux paste? What is this? 1950s plumbing?
sorry to be pedantic, but she was following the nasa standard for soldered lap splices. see NASA-STD-8739.4A, 19.4. provided you do it right, it's mechanically fine i do agree on the not enough solder and unnecessary application of flux, though.
I found it. Nothing so fun as reading a 100+ page government specification. :-) standards.nasa.gov/file/817/download?token=LsVA-v2x She's performing the lap splice shown on page 68. I was referring to the lineman's splice on page 71. She DID NOT follow the NASA spec which clearly calls for both conductors to be tinned before making the final solder joint. That nasty brown flux is not tinning. I wouldn't want to fly in any spacecraft with a splice like that. I had an experimental aircraft and I used crimped connections to avoid the stress risers of soldered connections on stranded wire in a high vibration environment. Heat shrink can only so so much.
Glad I'm not the only one who probably winced seeing such an awful attempt at a solder joint. Having seen the 'art' of Tom Sachs recently in one of the Tested channels videos ( Adam Savage did a tour of his Space Program exhibit ), I'm not surprised that Sachs insists on such old fashioned and crude styles of work, it seems to be his 'style', rather than what is 'proper' or electrically and mechanically sound.
You'd want to use a pretty good amount of solder even then, I don't know an engineer who would spec that into a design. I'll certainly use lap splices for temporary lab setups, but I can't think of any reason do put that in a production part.
that type of job it literally afire hazard for higher current devices. solder is cheap glob it up lol. should have tined both sides as well before combining if you dont want to do the twist first.
"Make sure the studio NEVER runs out of sugar cubes." Okay, everyone is dropping acid. The Studio requires no further explanation. Sugar cubes are getting kinda rare, btw.
"In 2023, Sachs came under fire from past studio employees for creating a cult-like and fear-inducing work environment.[15] Past workers told Hyperallergic about how difficult it was to quit. “It is like a true cult in that they make it really hard to leave,” they said, citing “manipulation and threats.”[16] One former studio manager told Curbed, “It’s almost as if he goes out of his way to sow discomfort and pawns it off as if he’s a genius. It’s like a ruse. So many people out there know that he’s cruel, but the art world is tiny and no one gives a shit.”"
A proper solder joint for wires is mechanically sound before applying solder i.e. twist them together. She did not use sufficient amount of solder as all solder joints should have a shiny reflective surface with no crystallization or dullness i.e. the solder joint was not too hot too cold or was moved before it cooled. The code fails basic soldering for wires. The persistence quote is from Calvin Coolidge.
If the code fails, it's time for revolution and anarchy. Abolish the old code! Topple the rasclatt leaders! Establishing the new code will bless us with solid solder joint in eternity.
I think Ave pranked us all. My eyes are twitching I'm so triggered by this;-) A great example of the kind of person you never want to work for. Someone who's utterly concerned with trivialities of HOW things are done instead of the reasons you're actually in business. Someone who can't see past their own way of negotiating the world, imposing their own way of doing things on their staff. I can assure you, being told what to do and how to do it are two different things. HR nonsense aside, I'd last 10 mins working for someone this short sighted. The end result is the goal. How you get there is irrelevant, beyond following some basic safety protocols. And cats should be at home.. litter boxes stink.
The irony is, that if this guy worked for you, he'd be an utter pain in your ass. The kind of person who questions everything you do. Entrepreneurs do not make good employers. They make for the kind of boss that has you stopping in the local convenience store every day for a lottery ticket after work.
Yea I came her for the beat video on UA-cam. I’m currently on the 4th bullet and unless that Elsa chick gets naked I don’t think this is gonna end up being the best on UA-cam.
Seriously! For someone with NASA logoed stuff all over you think the "code" for soldering would be a Western Union splice which is pretty much NASA standard, I was kind of shocked when she didn't pre-tin the connections and it went downhill from there.
@@revgregory Yeah WTF is it with NASA logos everywhere? I mean, if you worked for NASA before, or had some connection to NASA, maybe. It smells a bit like "stolen valor"
Ha. I get that. Totally. I work in a disorganized messy shop that would make people like this cringe probably but shit gets done. Probably because I’m not spending days and days making bullshit bullets and books to sound cool, we just get the job done and move on.
For those mentioning Casey Niestat' studio, this is his best vid (after Bike Lanes) that shows all the studios features/hacks/etc: ua-cam.com/video/vb60rrtTddQ/v-deo.html (Not a niestat fanboy - I lost interest when he kept showing baby and wife videos labeled with click bait titles)
Indeed. I think the use of Alcohol highlights the irony (weak joint vs good use of alcohol in the context of the worker performing the soldering up to shop standards)
From what I've read that is actually a NASA standard to have the wires placed parallel and soldered together. I think it has something to do with the fact copper work hardens and that makes it more durable to withstand vibration. That being said thats just what I found when first learning to solder, the different types of splice methods
Landrew0 nah, I thought about that distinction but I meant the proper noun, not the abstraction. I don't want to assert 10 Bullets is without any kind of god, but rather without the more qualified identity "God."
God was always in the rules thats the way it always was und always will be no matter if you are talking about Christianity Capitalism or Islam the rules make the god and the human make the rules
Alternate title: "How to wallow in the depths of your OCD, and turn it into a tool for success." I certainly wouldn't fit in there, though. To me that sounds like the description of Hell.
Ever since I watched AvE's video this has been in my recommendations. I've been avoiding it and ignoring it but I finally broken down and watched it. Are you happy now UA-cam!? Does it please you master, does it!?

This is all well and good when you're working in a well funded, well staffed environment. When you're massively underfunded and understaffed and everyone is short of time, many of these things will just go by the wayside. How does the old saying go -- "You can have it done fast, done cheap or done right. Pick two out of the three."
@@kuzadupa185 If you're underfunded and you can't get the right materials/tools to do the job you'd have to rewrite the code (#1) and the way you do things (do it simpler or differently).
I love how most the points are presented I find it amusing that the solder joint shown in bullet 4 is badly made and up to no standard. It wouldn't leave my studio like that.
Remember when AVE told me to waste 21:07 of my time on a video on UA-cam? I do... I don't regret a second. I'll do it again. I might even call you in the morning.
@16:37 the table is a disaster! The two threaded bar clamps next to the yellow dial-caliper should be switched with the two spring pinch-clamps below in-order to line up with the quick-clamp which is below the yellow caliper.
In 1:50 number 7 says "reset", but there is no "reset" part in the final video. Apparently it was replaced by "Send Does Not Mean Received". Any ideas with this one?
I love this video. You don’t have to work at The Studio to learn from these bullets. I also love that at 10:57 empty is spelled without a “p”. And, I believe the persistence quote is from Calvin Coolidge, not Ray Kroc. I only bring this up because it’s a video about details. ;)
The remarkable observation about persistence, at the end of the video, is actually a quote attributed to President, Clavin Coolidge, and is every intellectual's mantra, no Krock!
I was told to memorise this code 2 years ago during work experience, had no idea about casey neistat and Tom, now after watching daily vlogs for a year I just found this and had a revelation
Always be Knolling is better known as 5S or Kaisen, essentially "A place for everything, everything in its place and nothing you don't need". This place sounds like a great place to work if you aren't a flake, don't like to clean up after others, and have a sense of community responsibility.
As I've said on here, I think I'd last a while until I got caught in some technicality. Source: I lived for a while on a "prepper compound" and I was the best thing to ever happen to that place. I repaired things, kept the neighbors hating the place a lot less while I was there, took care of animals, garden, etc. I was The Responsible One. I did it for, essentially, room (I had my own trailer which I also fixed a lot of stuff on) and basic board although I bought a lot of my own food. A valued employee, right? Someone the owner of the place would want to keep around, right? Nope! The owner is a narcissist who thrives on drama. I'd improved the place enough that he started inviting others to live there, who were essentially a bunch of deadbeats and this only increased my workload. Then I started getting nagged over stupid trivalities until I eventually left. I think the problem was, I was making things work too well. And the owner didn't want things to work too well, he wanted drama. Well he got it. After I left some of the neighbors called me to verify that I was gone and not coming back, then complained to the county about him and he's being billed $100/day for running an "illegal hotel". One of the guys living there hung himself. Another guy violated his parole and had to go to jail for a while. It's just drama, drama, drama all day long. So you can work for someone like this and be a great worker and team player and still end up the villain.
10:18 I need help. I share a workspace with another person, and I am fastidious about a "reset" and clean work surface. How do I get the other person to do the same? Nothing is worse then arriving at the workstation ready to take on a task, and there is crap all over the workspace! 24 hours after task I need to remind them to clear off the stuff..to which they reply ..."but I am not done with it". So frustrating.
It took a little thinking, but I finally got the meaning of this film. Basically, if you do your job as you are supposed to, any failure can not be passed back to you. Worst solder joints in the world included.
with solder joints like that no wonder they wanna make the apollo rocket into a bong lmao check out line-mans joint solder and double shrink for a clean repair
2:20 I always chuckle when I hear the "Ten fucking seconds. It should take you no less than ten fucking seconds to negotiate this obstacle." ...I think you mean "it should take you no MORE than ten fucking seconds", Gunny.
These rules are just beautiful!!! Having worked in kitchens and studios for many years, I can confidently assure you that mise en place/knolling is ESSENTIAL to a smoothly functioning environment. It takes less time and effort knoll and clean everything than what it does to locate lost, unreplenished, or misplaced items.
@@qualitydyl7088 Van literally just made a video mentioning this project. He directed all of Tom Sachs’s videos I believe. He and Casey got their start by directing videos for him after he caught them making videos when they should have been working on his art projects.
“Your only job is not dropping this pipe on my head.” 😂 I missed the joke on first viewing because i hadn’t heard Van tell his story about dropping a pipe on Tom’s head while Tom was welding it.
10 bullets is right. 1 killed my enthusiasm. 2 killed my creativity. 3 killed my humor. 4 killed my pleasure. 5 killed my patience. 6 killed my attention. 7 killed my desire. 8 killed my self worth. 9 killed my devotion. 10 killed my personal growth.

Totally the norm.

Holy cow that was some shitty soldering.

6 years later it turns out you were right the whole time go read the exposé
You’re soft, creativity can be amplified by rules
Or maybe, you’re just a mediocre guy happy with his mediocre performance. Like 99% of the other sheep. Good for you.
I UNDERSTAND !
@16:37 the table is a disaster!
The two threaded bar clamps next to the yellow dial-caliper should be switched with the two spring pinch-clamps below in-order to line up with the quick-clamp which is below the yellow caliper.
90% percent of comments about THAT solder job HAHAHAHAHAHA thanks AVE
This just came as a YT recommendation and I wondered if anyone else was offended by that.
best comment on the thread....lol
In 1:50 number 7 says "reset", but there is no "reset" part in the final video. Apparently it was replaced by "Send Does Not Mean Received".
Any ideas with this one?
I love this video. You don’t have to work at The Studio to learn from these bullets. I also love that at 10:57 empty is spelled without a “p”. And, I believe the persistence quote is from Calvin Coolidge, not Ray Kroc. I only bring this up because it’s a video about details. ;)
Above "emty" you'll find "chord" in place of "cord."
Said it was F.B Silverwood. A merchant from chicago.
Bullet #3: Committ
The remarkable observation about persistence, at the end of the video, is actually a quote attributed to President, Clavin Coolidge, and is every intellectual's mantra, no Krock!
This is a magnum opus of principles for creating a good engineering/maker culture
Except for the damn cat(s) in the shop.
Does anyone know where the Burroughs quote at 7:45 comes from? Or if that is Burroughs?
I was told to memorise this code 2 years ago during work experience, had no idea about casey neistat and Tom, now after watching daily vlogs for a year I just found this and had a revelation
That's awesome hahaha
Did the revelation contain the words 'hipster' and 'nonsense'?
Always be Knolling is better known as 5S or Kaisen, essentially "A place for everything, everything in its place and nothing you don't need".
This place sounds like a great place to work if you aren't a flake, don't like to clean up after others, and have a sense of community responsibility.
Not quite the same because knolling means like things ordered together and stored parallel or at 90 degrees.
If your kids make you arrive, sometimes five minutes late. Their lunch money and college fund will go to leatherface.
As I've said on here, I think I'd last a while until I got caught in some technicality. Source: I lived for a while on a "prepper compound" and I was the best thing to ever happen to that place. I repaired things, kept the neighbors hating the place a lot less while I was there, took care of animals, garden, etc. I was The Responsible One.
I did it for, essentially, room (I had my own trailer which I also fixed a lot of stuff on) and basic board although I bought a lot of my own food. A valued employee, right? Someone the owner of the place would want to keep around, right? Nope!
The owner is a narcissist who thrives on drama. I'd improved the place enough that he started inviting others to live there, who were essentially a bunch of deadbeats and this only increased my workload. Then I started getting nagged over stupid trivalities until I eventually left.
I think the problem was, I was making things work too well. And the owner didn't want things to work too well, he wanted drama. Well he got it. After I left some of the neighbors called me to verify that I was gone and not coming back, then complained to the county about him and he's being billed $100/day for running an "illegal hotel". One of the guys living there hung himself. Another guy violated his parole and had to go to jail for a while. It's just drama, drama, drama all day long.
So you can work for someone like this and be a great worker and team player and still end up the villain.
10:18 I need help. I share a workspace with another person, and I am fastidious about a "reset" and clean work surface. How do I get the other person to do the same? Nothing is worse then arriving at the workstation ready to take on a task, and there is crap all over the workspace! 24 hours after task I need to remind them to clear off the stuff..to which they reply ..."but I am not done with it". So frustrating.
How do i sign up for this cult?
Amazing Video. Very Cool & So True...! Keep up the great work. Nick.
came here via AvE. then realised the family Neistat connection. Cool film. Not sure if the various errors were part of the film or oversites.
so, when I can come to work?
AvE was spot on this is very funny and production is great
When did AvE reference this? I'd love to know!
I don't remember exact video but he recommended your video highly. If I figure it out I will let you know.
@@danstheman33 I think I made a mistake in thinking you were the one who posted this video, sorry.
Found it! I think it's this one:

That passage about persistence was a quote by Calvin Coolidge, not Ray Kroc.
I instantly recognized Van's work.
" Your one job is not to drop the metal pole on my head " 😂😅😅 I almost spit my drink
Who on earth cleans the toilet seat with toilet brush? That is not what it was designed for. Fucking gross.
What, you use tap water for toilet bowl cleaner?
marshaul try a bit of toilet cleaner and toilet paper does the job.
lol finally someone that mentions this. First the brush touches the inside of the bowl, and AFTER that the seat.
redtails ...and after that he uses it to scrub the dishes...
luckily he's following the code.
wov thesee codes are great i will apply to my life also and share with my friends too . thanks ..
ERALP DEMİRKAZİK if you do that your friends will probably hate your ass
10:54 "EMTY?"
It's an in-crowd joke. If you look at the list on 8:53, you'll see the correct spelling on the list.
I need to know what that alcohol dispenser is called. Bright orange with the brass fitting and a spring 😯😯
It took a little thinking, but I finally got the meaning of this film. Basically, if you do your job as you are supposed to, any failure can not be passed back to you. Worst solder joints in the world included.
I think it's part of the product, bringing some sort of Cargo Cult artifacts to market.
9:39 looks like your standard could lean to a tiny touch more solder... im just sayin
so interesting to see the different process through which people foster their creativity.
Where can I get a set of those movable clamps she uses while soldering? That's exactly what I need right now...
with solder joints like that no wonder they wanna make the apollo rocket into a bong lmao check out line-mans joint solder and double shrink for a clean repair
They should use wire stranding before soldering, otherwise this bullets are missed
2:20 I always chuckle when I hear the "Ten fucking seconds. It should take you no less than ten fucking seconds to negotiate this obstacle."
...I think you mean "it should take you no MORE than ten fucking seconds", Gunny.
Soldering not made by NASA standards. You are supposed to coat the both copper ends with tin before soldering them together.
where is elsa, and how do I get in contact with her?
These rules are just beautiful!!! Having worked in kitchens and studios for many years, I can confidently assure you that mise en place/knolling is ESSENTIAL to a smoothly functioning environment. It takes less time and effort knoll and clean everything than what it does to locate lost, unreplenished, or misplaced items.
Exactly.
Whats the song at 15:50 the whistling song?
Be thorough - 10:55, put a "p" in the word "Empty"
Lefie brought me here. Glad I came. Great video and information!
This sounds like hell to me...
Discipline
Its hell if it is forced on you, and absolute heaven if you willingly choose to surrender to it, exactly like meditation.
If you work in a shop that ignores these rules, it's hell.
@@TheThomaswastaken that’s why you don’t work with others 😂
What's with the NASA logo?
This is brilliant. As a veteran of 11 seasons of NASCAR racing I cannot overemphasize how squarely you have hit the nail on the head.
11 seasons? I've watched WAY more than that.
To the person who made these rules, "One should be spending more time working and less time making rules about working."
So this is where Neistat gets all his inspiration from... What an interesting thing to stumble upon. Tom Sachs.
dude this is directed by his brother not that tom sachguy
@@user-yk1cw8im4h wait where does it say that
@@qualitydyl7088 ending credit. it says "van neistate", who is neistat's brother.
@@qualitydyl7088 Van literally just made a video mentioning this project. He directed all of Tom Sachs’s videos I believe. He and Casey got their start by directing videos for him after he caught them making videos when they should have been working on his art projects.
@@djstarsign wow so creative lol. These “artists” are full of themselves. It was an okay vid.
Why is Elsa's list different at 8:50 than it is at 11:00?
Just dawned on me--there's a Wes Anderson influence going on here, no?
+MSL5 I was thinking the same thing, but i dont see bill murray anywhere...
your "play" is regimented and has goals
Van Neistat, he is the real genius behind this video
I think that's being 'creative' 😆
“Your only job is not dropping this pipe on my head.” 😂 I missed the joke on first viewing because i hadn’t heard Van tell his story about dropping a pipe on Tom’s head while Tom was welding it.
10 bullets is right.
1 killed my enthusiasm. 2 killed my creativity. 3 killed my humor. 4 killed my pleasure. 5 killed my patience. 6 killed my attention. 7 killed my desire. 8 killed my self worth. 9 killed my devotion. 10 killed my personal growth.
Nice
9:39 update "the code" to include "use adequate solder", and eliminate the "add solder directly to the iron" part. SMH.
I don't understand...
