Adam Savage's Miniature Vault Door Build! (Part 2)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 вер 2024
- Adam continues his miniature vault door build, a complicated arrangement of machined gears, racks, and pins that all have to work in concert to operate as an actual functioning lock. The door body gets machined from a large chunk of beautiful cast clear acrylic, and Adam attemps a first test fitting to see if the mechanism works!

Adam Savage's Miniature Vault Door Build, Part 1: ua-cam.com/video/SiL8IzJSnyU/v-deo.html
How critical is it for all the racks to start with the same tooth profile? As in all starting at the peak or trough of a tooth, I mean. Because just because they're the same length of rack doesn't mean they start at the same point. Or is it not that big a deal, because of the amount of movement they're doing in the final door?
OK, I JUST got to the part where you explain that it's important, but how critical is it, exactly? Because the locking pins still register and lock, even if it's not perfectly even. So is it just esthetic (matters for transparent lock), or mechanically significant for the actual locking function?
Can you grind each rack down to the peak or trough at the racking end before turning the pin end? Would that be accurate enough? (I'm thinking peak is better, gives you a little further extension of the pins when locking the vault.)
time to retire the mouth interface and go to the mk 42 LOL
teeth on both sides of the pins?
Adam trying to explain something while a mechanical hacksaw is just working through a giant round in the background is pure "mad scientist" energy to me. I love it.
Using the squeaking of the hacksaw for the narrative is just brilliant. The notion that the build is being marked by anticipation for "the day this damn squeaking finally stops" is such an incredible, hilarious way to show the progression of time! Your spirit for storytelling is incredible!
When it comes to creating a new thing, I always say "It's amazing what we can build if we don't mind building it twice." Awesome series!
To be honest, the noise of your channel and many other maker channels to me is relaxing because the natural sound of tooling and machining. I may be an odd ball for saying that but between shifts and at the end of work n all, things like this are a nice wind down to listen to.
Appreciate that!
I think many of us like some workshop ASMR haha, the best part about it is I really don't mind if the neighbors are remodeling their home
If they get to do some laser etching/cleaning, I'd listen to that all day. Guaranteed, he'd make that thing sing.
Totally get that! I find Adam’s builds really relaxing and compelling. 👌🏻👌🏻
Hey Adam, I wanted to leave this comment in hopes that you see it. I just want to let you know how appreciative I am of the work you have done throughout your career. There's just something about you. You have that spark. You have been a constant figure of creativity, ingenuity, and intelligence in my life. And as I grow older, I grow evermore appreciative of the memories I have of watching you and your colleagues work. You have bestowed upon me and many others a portion of your spark in one way or another. And, I just wanted to make sure that at least one person has said so. So thank you.
Watching you measure the acrylic on your arm makes me want that tattoo as well!
I want a similar one for measuring fibers, thread, and yarn for my medieval fiber arts. Talk about some engineering marvels, medieval weaving and knitting creators were some badass engineers.
A man and his imagination and a limitless workshop. It cannot get any more interesting and entertaining
Nevwr say never... jork
imagination? he is literally trying to copy something from a game.
@@thomgizziz He isn't copying something from a game lol.
@@thomgizziz This is not related to the fallout collaboration, started before that, and it is an absolute little piece of art :)
That workshop is my nirvana.🙏🏼
One thing I love about Adam's videos is how it inspires and motivates me to craft, tinker and build stuff myself. My little projects are not related to the things Adam does and no where near the same level, but it gets me started and I love it. It has also totally changed my view on "failures" in the process. Thank you very much mr Savage!
I enjoy the amount of thinking time you leave in your videos. UA-cam can be a very unrealistic depiction of the making process, but the fact that you sometimes just stand in front of the camera and think reminds us that it's a normal part of the process.
I like the sign on the mill that says 'This machine has no brain. Use your own'
AvEs "Not to be operated by fkwits" would be equally appropriate lol
I have stickers next to all my machines saying ;
"This machine does not know the difference between metal and flesh. Nor does it care."
But now I want those stickers as well!
I went for the "It's nothing personal, it does that to anyone and anything."
I've got a graphic pictorial sticker on my Table Saw that says,
"Remove Head From Ass Before Using This Machine."
Same idea.
I'm a fiber artist, and I'm currently working on a piece that says "Align your chakras: remove crown from root."
I love how excited Adam is about this. in the beginning, he can't talk because his brain is going faster than his tongue and, in the end, he is so proud that he can't stop talking. There is nothing like the feeling of turning a piece of material into a thing
Im really enjoying this project just because Adam loves it so much, hes loved vault doors for decades and thought about them longer so its really nice to see a project he wants to work more than usually simply because he loves the ... no.... loves everything about them and his build.
Glad you touched on stacking of tolerances. Love this project.
Being a person with a mind nearly as busy as Adam's, it's such a treat to get to watch him wrestle his racing fast mind down to human speeds. I hope you live a long and healthy life while still being able to take us all along for the journey. Cheers!
23:34 Adam obviously using his ruler tattoo here had me cracking up lmao
Hello! I'm a Swiss watchmaker and I have a book with a chapter on making gears, if you want advice and mathematical formulas for making and adjusting these gears in particular with the depth of the teeth so that the gears are neither too close nor too far, I can send you scans of this chapter, the text is in French but I can help you translate it if you need.
Personally, don’t work on too many watches however I do have a 1944 K-31 Schmidt Ruben I could use some help with!……lol
legend
Is the book you have still in print/copyright? If not, your local library might be able to assist you in scanning the entire book. Many books on esoteric technical subjects are being lost because they were printed in small quantities and they aren't collected because their authors are unknown. This is especially true of books in languages other than English, just because printing quantities were even smaller.
@@kschleic9053 I think it's not still published in France and Switzerland, most of my watchmaking colleagues have a copy, not sure about the USA. As for the scan, I have everything I need in my workshop to take care of it.
Yeah a book in french is going to be super helpful and the hours of time trying to understand it is going to be doubly good... smh
Oh, the blimp from bladerunner in the background is amazing!!
The video! ua-cam.com/video/IEZX3-A63RY/v-deo.htmlfeature=shared
@@tested I'm trying to finish this video. You're not helping my ADD. Damn you! Lol
It looks like an early prototype for an arc-reactor.
was wandering what that was so a big thank you
This man is my hero, a true jack of all trades. I think theres more value in being a jack than a master of one, and this guy has been an exemplar of that to me since i was like 10 watching mythbusters for the first time. This shit puts me in absolute awe. I only wish Jamie Hyneman had the same online presence as Adam so i could learn from my two idols as they took their separate paths.
Wow Adam, every video I watch of yours I can’t fathom the amount of brain power pumping through your head. Keep amazing everyone, we love you!
I love watching an American machinist work in metric. so simple!
On metric gears. The module is the distance in from the gear outside diameter, this gives the PCD which is used to determine the center distance between two gears. For a simple example, two equal gears with a diameter of 21mm with a 0.5mm module will have a PCD of 20mm so need to be mounted 20mm apart. Incidentally divide the PCD by the module gives the number of teeth.
This by far is my favorite build to date, I am completely intrigued by the entire learning experience your going through and learning a lot from it👍👍👍
watching lathe work is so satisfying
My son and I appreciate your enthusiasm for the arts and science. I hope I get the opportunity to meet you some day, my dude. Keep inspiring ❤️
Something about bank vaults and seeing how they work really is so satisfying
Adam! The term you are looking for at 29:15 is tolerance stacking or tolerance stack-up. A huge issue and consideration when making huge assemblies! I was CNC machining some custom gearboxes for my University Rover Challenge team a few months ago and ran into this problem during manufacturing. Super cool to wrap your head around during the design and drawing phase of the engineering process.
Love the build so far!
You really are insane in the best possible ways. Mad science, and mad engineering, at it's finest.
In a world where we get everything on demand, and entire seasons at our fingertips, I’m genuinely excited to have to wait for the next installment of this series. Thanks for keeping life interesting. 💯
Adam, thank you for tackling the things that a majority of us can only imagine in our heads and making them real. Inspiring to watch you work out problems.
Adam, I could honestly watch you forever.
I start thinking I am getting pretty good at making stuff.....then i see this!
Love all the videos, and i get a lot of ideas and techniques from Adam.
Would love to see an update on Adam's workbench from Andrew Klein and how it's holding up to the abuse!
2nd this request!
Enjoying every second of this. So satisfying and cool. I was just smiling while watching.
love the way your constantly challenging yourself
Fascinating. I used to be a vault teller and I was terrified of being accidentally locked inside the vault. And I once had to spend overnight in a branch office with a manager when the new vault was locked open in error and could not be secured until the timer had lapsed.
"Squaricity," the most Adam Savage word ever.
This is the best and coolest build series on youtube right now. Feels like watching Tony Stark build and refine his arc reactor.
no, no it doesn't. Watching a person make a new high tech invention would be nothing like watching a dude try and blunder through replicating something from a game.
@@thomgizziz hold up. From a game? He's building a vault door based on real vault doors used by banks. The other thing I do agree with in theory though. In practice, watching someone inventing something like an arc reactor would be super boring, but it's obviously played up in the work of fiction to show he's smart instead of saying it. Which a certain tabletop war gaming company could learn a thing or two from.
This vault door series is pinnacle Savage content. Love 🤌
Vault-Tec approved.
is it designed to perform psychological experiments on adam? lol
Loving this build! Looking forward to the next part 👍 🇬🇧
Loving this build!
Crazy build !!! Love the visual of the acrylics !!!
Watching Adam Savage build stuff AFTER, taking a university machining class hits different
I’m so excited to see this whole series when it’s all complete!!! 🎉
Could you turn the corners off the rack to 10mm diameter & make the rack the length including the dowel then ream the annular holes 10mm to suit. This will eliminate the error of aligning the dowel with the rack by a screw thread. When setting out the holes for the shoulder bolts, cut a shallow counterbore above the tapped hole to locate the shoulder bolt ground diameter instead of relying on the tapped holes.
It’s amazing to watch your mind working and figuring and seeing the progress.
Thank you for sharing in all the little details and perspective of modeling.
I just Absolutely Loved Adam's palm with the word vault written on it at the beginning of this video 😘
it warms my heart to hear an American using millimetres! So much easier, right? .
Nope
most American makers have no trouble working in eather.
Bot!! Copy/pasted my comment
Inches and thousandth of an inch, what is so hard. We don’t use fractions or feet in engineering.
@@whoneedsaname2228metric was designed to be easy. To say it’s more difficult than Imperial is nonsense
Every time you whistle, it sets my dogs off.
The only thing I can hear when watching at this is in the voice of Obadiah Stane (Jeff Bridges) saying "Adam Savage was able to built a Vault Door in his cave...with a box of scraps..." Such a joy to watch. Thanks Adam.
I love this series so much, how accurate it needs to be is beautiful
I'm absolutely loving this build.
Looking Good Adam 👌 ✌️
I just love Adam and his enthusiasm and approach to problem solving. I envy his brain. Absolute legend and a real hero and inspiration of mine. Cheers, from an 47 year old bugger from Melbourne Australia.
Thanks for sharing your journey of engineering vault doors. Super fascinating to share with my son and I.
Making the same part over and over brings back memories of one of my first jobs in high school in the 90s.I worked in this tiny little machine shop. The owner was a fishing guide and he also made his own arrow heads for archery hunting and sold them. It was just him and he would hire 2 or 3 kids every summer to come in and crank out thousands of arrows heads for minimum wage. I sat in front of a drill press for 4 or 5 hours after school cutting slots into those arrow heads over and over and over. Pop a fresh one in, clamp it down, cut a slot, turn it, cut a slot, turn it, cut a slot, pop it out, on to the next. And then we'd have to assemble them which was slipping the blades into those slots and putting a tip on them to hold the blades in. Gives me chills thinking about it.
This build gives me so much more appreciation for the engineering and precision that goes into the giant vault doors.
I love the narrative through line of the hacksaw noise
What i find amazing is the amount of tools you have. Its not like you have just the basic stuff. You literally have a tool for everything and I just think that's amazing
Best simple editing ever! Nice job editor.
Can't wait to see you finish this. It looks great.
This is one of the most satisfying builds I've ever seen. I can't wait to see the finished project!
I love watching you figure things out on the fly. The way your brain works is just like mine. Seems scattered and disjointed, but it's all part of the process.
You know what is better than that is understanding what you have to do and doing it right the first time with a good plan and not trying to wing it and make a bunch of mistakes. You are trying to pretend that the way you think is a good thing when it is clearly not.
@@thomgizziz "clearly not" interesting opinion.
Otoh, figuring things out as you go is a fun way to learn new things. Yeah, sometimes you try something and it doesn't work out. Sometimes it does. You learn things either way. Sometimes you figure on doing it one way, based on what you've done in the past or what others have done or whatever, but then get an idea part way through and try something new. Sometimes it works sometimes it doesn't.
He's building a vault purely for the joy of it. A tiny, but functional vault. He doesn't NEED it. He's not selling it. It's not part of some other production. There's no specs he's required to follow.
He's so excited about the gears he cut. Not because he had it all figured out and knew exactly how it should be done, but because he'd never done it before and he tried it and it worked.
If you've never tried to do something you've never tried before, just for the fun of it, I highly recommend it. It's so incredibly rewarding to have a thing that you did that you hadn't done before.
@@thomgizziz
Yours is worse, with the way you think you can only ever make things that others have precisely detailed before you.
Prototyping is all about iterative design and the resilience to deal with your "mistakes" while you discover and learn a better approach. Finding enjoyment in that process is even better.
The noise is soothing , it’s in furtherance of a goal . About to buy the rotary phase converter that will get my lathe working.
Would love to see Adam make a vault door from Fallout. Then to see him paint and weather it! That would be awesome. Wonder which vault number he would use.
I sooooo missed these long format mechanical builds, just by Adam himself. Great stuff.
Loving Adam's safe words
Absolutely inspiring! Great work. I love to see Adam's thought process as he works this stuff out. He's a national treasure!
Adam Salvage has been an inspiration since I was a kid, I loved watching Mythbusters growing up, and now seeing him on UA-cam, he's only gotten better since then, seeing him get excited about what he does is awesome and seeing how he's the exact same giddy and excited nerd that he was while on TV really puts things into perspective, the entire time he's been himself and it's awesome, he's the most relatable TV personality I've ever seen
I'm watching this project with bated breath!! SO cool!!
With such a worldwide audience, by Christmas I'll bet even Rudolph the Red knows Ring Gear !!
- Chuck in Belize
5:48 I love the DRO behind him updating as he taps the collet against the lathe.
I like the numbers changing on the DRO in the background as you were banging the collet down ha ha
It's cool you're still learning new skills. Designing fixtures is all about the details, especially with timing racks and gears. It took me a lot of "mistakes" to learn how to make things. Solid works helps a lot with that now
the arm that moves the door into place also moves the pins into place . love this
10 hours of that saw please! I could listen to that all day
This is exciting! I can't wait to see the outcome!
I was waiting impatiently for part 2.
I'm still amazing what Adam can achieve. He and Jamie was my inspiration to go into engineering when I was young and discovered mythbusters.
Inspiration at its finest! Thanks for the amazing video!
even the music is straight out of How It's Made. i love it
I absolutely love this series
I was really looking forward to the second part of this vault, now I need to wait for the third!
Sometimes, I think you are too excited about things, but I love it!
I love miniature mechanical things
Adam you are hands down one of the best on UA-cam when it comes to step by step explaining your thought process during projects. It’s fascinating to watch how you think and work out any task. Thanks for making amazing videos for the world to see!
I'd settle for 2nd place to Adam. :)
@@joepie221 Tied for first in my book Joe.
I love the fact you have the knowledge but are proving to yourself you can do it
Machinist here; when he said it doesn't matter now, it didn't UNTIL he starts assembly... Also the teeth position matters from the start. The solution is simple, cut one piece of rack and thin it out, use it tooth up as a spacer and put an adjustable stop to it in such a way that you can cut the length and height needed in the same setup with the teeth down engaged in your spacer. From there you can make them all the same length rack and thus same length threads. Positioning in assembly will require some slop, since precision is something you can't get after the fact and it's not the size of the rack but the relation of the rack to the pin(radial to its central axis). The threads are for removal, not mounting so don't expect any tight tolerances there though it probably is fine.
What about the fact that the pins are screwed onto the racks -- wouldn't that give enough flexibility in final "height" to account for small discrepancies in the rack teeth?
@@coil780it can, but having the first tooth start at the same position will ensure no single rack will undo or bottom out before the rest. The threads themselves will just account for the position of the pin at its full stroke
Not gonna lie, I genuinely thought Adam was going to try and reproduce a vault door from Fallout, moving motor and all LOL
Ikr, I was under the same impression when they dropped the 1st video and was all excited. Nevertheless, it’s a vault door so…
@@_Khan-Solo_ it's still neat what he is making, surprised he didn't try to tie into all the Fallout hubaloo
I love the energy and passion coming from you making something meaningless to many and meaningfull to some, I'm so happy to be some, you're so blessed having all these precise machine tools at hand, honing you're machine skills to near perfection. I wonder how'd you do when you would have a 5 axis cnc machine at your disposal.
Adam, I hope you read this comment. You have several options with your rack and pin dilemma/requirement. But each carries a price tag. Once you cut the racks to all be in the same starting tooth, you will reduce the length of each pin. You will then need to adjust the overall length of each subassembly so they are all the same. This in turn will make the individual length of each round pin different end eliminate a standard length for each pin. Interchangeability of pins is out the window. Once you re-clock the rack starting position, your best option is to recut the area where the pin registers on that rack when screwed down. This would be my solution. Good luck and great project. Stay well. Oh..and use a small piece of gear rack as the parallel you use to cut the ends of the smaller parts. Just bump that parallel against your vise stop and all the parts will be identical.
Start with round stock, thread one end, mill the rack on the other end such that rack width = r/2 ?
Nice video Adam , I love the idea .
That powered hacksaw is remarkable.
i suggest pinned leaf springs to apply equal resistance all the way round, as the upper and lower dowels will be effected by gravity, whereas the 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock have gravity pulling on them laterally, it will smooth out the mechanism.
You can micro adjust each rack pin by slightly backing it the right amount out of the hardened pin a fraction of a turn, remember screws are an inclined plane. Getting it to stay in that position might be tricky though.
"Bandsaw noises" 😆 Your editing team brings a smile to my face.
Been waiting for this! You’re the man.
enjoying this series. thanks.
