    UPDATE!!! I was contacted by Chris Bernardo of the Wand Company. He watched both videos and gave detailed info on the whys, hows and what they are working on. I asked him if I can share the email and info and will hopefully share that soon. Unfortunately, the news is that the Rad meter will not be produced. He told me that regardless of the fan base, the retailers were not interested after the 76 problems. Also, it was hard to create due to the reasons I had mentioned. For this reason, I think it is time to move forward in making our own. I think we have very inventive people here and we can make something we can all do. I will be trying to collaborate with a few of our friends here to do this and hopefully share more later. Thanks.

      A real geiger counter might be possible, but only if you can find a way to integrate the detector in such a way that it doesn't mess with the actual surface itself. It would need to be beneath some really thin, preferably very, very light and non-dense material in order to pick up actual ambient radiation - or perhaps some sort of mesh. Not sure if there's space in the prop for that. The dial might be more of an issue though, I'm not sure if any geigers are still made with a physical needle, most modern ones just have a digital display for more accuracy. That would probably need some custom programming.

  • @RyuzakiReaper
    @RyuzakiReaper 4 роки тому +4

    This video is awesome. One note that I think would be cool is to take all the charging cables and make the pip-boy's computer cable (that the sole survivor plugs in to computers to hack, obviously) and make it functional and use that as the hub to charge the pip boy (Thus removing the need for the batteries for the radio or the requirement to remove the entire side to access the batteries. Plus it wouldn't be hard to add a small USB battery pack as a central energy source.). Also if you made the Metro hand crank generator you could abstain from the need of batteries entirely.
    Just as passing thought. Good luck and halcyon days.

    As an owner of one of the replicas, the lack of a fully working screen, radio etc on the Pip-Boy is the one disappointment. A fully working one would be great, and since the app is built out from Fallout 4, it would have been relatively easy to have one and connect it to the knobs etc in some form. As this proves: there was a viable screen hardware option too, and I personally would have paid extra for a fully functional one like this.

    • @YourGeekFix

I will probably follow this video to some extent as a sort of reference/tutorial but don't worry I will be following many standard safety precautions including wearing Saftyglasses, fireproof gloves, and an acid/fire resistant smock.

    There was this subtle nervous energy in this video despite your obvious professionalism and DIY know-how. It's like you were simultaneously determined and slightly afraid of the project. Then again, I don't do a lot of project kits, so I guess putting together an expensive kit while making up new pieces to fit in it is definitely an undertaking. I typically stick to those botany lego kits, haha.
