Thanks for watching! - Наука та технологія
That resigned pause and "sigh" seeing that wrench drawer at the end was so profoundly relatable that I felt it in my soul, lol. We have all been there, so proud of our latest finished project only to have to stare at the next one dead in the face.
you fix, update and organize,
only to be awarded with new problem
I've heard that this is a trait that "Messy Perfectionist" exhibit. We like to start on one project but we can't help but get distracted by the next one in the queue. Even when we finish a project and are content with it, we are more focused on what we will be doing next....very much felt the "sigh" too lol
Post credits scene teasing the sequel
It makes me happy to see others sad.
For anyone else wondering what sci fi movie that xacto handle was from, some googling turned up they were weapon handles on chronicles of riddick!
Exactly what I came here here for (that and Puddles), thank you for your work.
What is the box cutter called?
Seeing a Puddles Pity Party sticker on Adam's bandsaw: That moment when you point at something in a video and go "Yaaaaay!" .
The old drawer just wasn't cutting it.
Congratulations on winning the Internet 😂
Ty for cheering my day!
The reorganized drawer is looking sharp.
😂
Nicely done.
Well the new drawer might just be cut above the rest....
The last time I saw that fancy blade handle Adam was talking about how every drawer he made he always tried to have one spot for a strange tool where only it could go. It struck me as a wonderfully Mystery-Box-In-The-Attic sort of vibe.
The movie series was Pitch Black.
Wow recall
I remember the day you got that workbench, all pristine and now looking at it now it clearly shows how it is such a daily used tool
I’m amazed Adam didn’t cut himself during this process… he really has come a long way lol
👏
I haven't made anything since shop class. Vicariously living through these videos makes me a happy maker spectator.
I love when Adam lets us take a look inside his two Craftsman tool boxes..
Clean or a "total sh*tfight" (like his Allen Drawer), I still love seeing what's in there...
I would love free reign to just explore his cave I would be a kid in a candy store
@@InspectahReese Same here! I want to rummage through the pile of bags in his loft! Oh, and that shelf of Unfinished Projects above his table saw. Oh, and his bookshelf in his office. Oh! And his display cabinets. And... 🤣
Adam, I feel your pain in how storage drawers/shelves have natural entropy. Just a few suggestions, for your box cutting blades, use a piece of metal rod to string the blades together and make the rod long enough to fit into the sides of your blade’s compartment. This way you can avoid sticking your fingers into an area where you can get cut. Also for your xacto knife handles, 3d print small inserts that allow you to string them side by side. And if you make them small enough you can make them so they can be stacked. 3d printed organizers are great little items to make and use. Even for allen wrenches. I always enjoy your shop reorganization videos.
I think I know the secret to Adam’s success. The speed he works at when music is playing is phenomenal. How does he move that quick!!!!
This was a treat, thanks Adam! I think this video illustrates one of your skills that I'd really like to have. You slowly, methodically prepared the details before assembling the whole thing and it was both done in a jiffy and will save you time down the line. This is very hard to do and always enjoyable to see someone pull-off!
I LOVE the Puddles Pity Party sticker. And your content is always awesome. *high-fives*
Some of the best ideas I've gotten from Adam, is the reorganization my shop.
Apparently im finally at the age where I enjoy watching people sort out their storage areas. Fuck yeah
Welcome!
Even with the most simple/basic of concepts for a video you never cease to keep me watching, a true testament to Adam's personality and ability too keep thing's interesting. An AMAZING video idea that I am sure a lot of people would find super awesome would be you delving into the world of "Warhammer", With your love of modeling, building & painting I feel like you would LOVE some of their bigger model kits. A video of Adam building & painting one of the Warhammer 40k "knight/titan" models would be a marvelous couple of "one day build" videos. (especially if he was up for the task to take on a "Warlord Titan"😆) Just him building it would be astounding to see how he would go about it, let alone the paint job would be a spectacle. With his 3d printer farm up and running he would even be able to just print one 😲
Hi Adam, it was fun too see the vid about the 3d printing pen.
I would really like if you do a vid about blades, soldering tips, plastic scrapers and other tools that help with post processing 3d printed parts.
Great video, but Puddles Pity Party?! Hell yeah man!
Glad to see you are a fan of Puddles. Definitely one of my AGT favorites.
Woah I spied your Puddles Pity Party sticker!!! I once worked at a historic venue in Orlando and he did a tour stop with is. I was ABSOLUTELY AMAZED with how tall he was, it was insane. Literally one of the nicest people on earth as well, he was an absolute joy to work with. I'm so happy to know you're a fan of his work. Keep being awesome, Adam!
knolling is my therapy. We need a looping video of all the knolling over the years on tested. I’ll settle for a tested poster of collage of knolling
A great workshop mentor of mine shaped some of my ideas of toolbox organization many years ago. My shop is a fraction of yours, but I have a big rolling toolbox. I have drawers of "pliers and things that look like pliers." A drawer of "things that measure." Several other similar categories, but you're working on my drawer of "things that cut."
I like seeing you get organized it's awesome😊
Love how much capacity and capability you're able to cram into the tinniest and most organized use of space!
Thoroughly enjoy these organizational videos.
How ironic , also just organized my shop blades this week. I put all my different types of blades on my flatbed scanner, got the 2d image and traced it in fusion 360. Then extruded it to make 3d printed trays.
Yet another great piece of work, Sir.. 😊
I love these organizations videos. Can’t wait for the next one
A homely and happy edit on this video. Love it!
Love the Puddle Pity Party sticker on the band saw. He is a great singer.
The Allen wrench drawer is Allen's problem! :P
Was surprised to see you didn't have any smaller scale scalpels. We use eye surgery scalpels for a number of small cutting needs, and they are uniquely superb at their designated task.
love the fact that through all that functional organization,,,,you still ended up having one 'kitchen junk drawer' partition back right.
love all the shop things you do/ rework but id love a follow up video few months down the road for us to see if you like the idea or want to change it. and it the new design make it more easy to use said item
its thanks to these vidios i finally have found a system that works for keeping my kitchen drawers organized
If you do the layout in the metal drawer itself you can leave it all in place while you work on the insert. Also using plain paper to add contrast to that drawer helps keep it similar to the eye and easier to judge things.
OMG, I have never heard of "Puddles Pity Party" before, Now I am hooked and listening to all there songs! Hahaha.. Perfect weirdness for Halloween. Thanks Adam for another ADD side-bar UA-cam search extravaganza!
The way Adam just deflates looking at the allen wrench drawer... we've all been there.
One thing I always respect is that Adam promotes what music he listens to. If he can’t put the music in for copyright reasons, at least we know what it is.
Love the Puddles Pity Party sticker on the bandsaw!
I saw him last week! What a coincidence 🎉
Whenever i watch a tested video with Adam Savage, it feels like a continuation of myth busters, and I get to relive a small bit of my childhood. You could be sorting copy paper by shades of white and it would bring a smile to my face. Thank you for all the years of entertainment and with sincerity, I look forward to sorting every drawer in your shop 🙂
That was classic! That huge sigh. I live it daily. :)
Have you ever thought about drilling holes in one of your custom drawer inserts and using it as a vacuum form template for a one piece, plastic insert?
Yep! Object and use is all about access priorities, and display/pick.
I was wondering if you ever tried using a thinner material, like a mat board, for the bottom of the organizer? Since once in place you have the metal drawer bottom supporting things, it would seem the strength is only needed when moving the organizer from the bench to the drawer. Using the 1/4" foam core loses you 1/4" of depth in the drawer, and I always seem to have that one tool that sticks up and rubs on the next drawer up, or blocks the drawer from closing correctly.
I really want to call out editing. Sure Adam is fantastic at presenting and creating the shots, but you can tell the editors put it together with so much care and attention to detail to enhance the story Adam is trying to tell.
The Xacto Ergo handle he's talking about is the handle on Riddick's blades in Chronicles of Riddick. I know because I emailed David Twohy about it and subsequently made a set myself 😂
Adam, Huzzah for the Puddles decal!
10:22 - One of Adam's many talents that nobody talks about is his ventriloquism skills.... Here's a perfect example of that. 😂
thankyou for keeping in the despondent sigh after looking at the Allen key drawer, i can relate and its nice to see others suffer in similar ways, lol
I love this. Custom drawers without having to figure out joinery. Is the foam core sturdy enough over time?
I am reminded of the episode of BB
We will just show Sheldon our closet, his desire to organize will, clean OUR closet...lol
Holy cow.... prominant Puddles sticker. Much respect.
14:30 that moment when you finish a project and you realize you have another project on your hands.....
Blade drawer looks great!
You need to add the Tough built utility knife with the reloadable magazine. It's wild
That knife enables the coolness factor coupled with actual serviceability.
Great video sir😊
I love me some Puddles Pitty Party! It's always cool when you see that someone you really admire is into some of the same "out there stuff" you are. ;-)
You just game the a great help on reorganizing my pen draws, thanks a million!
I have a Guide Series Plano box full of pens and pencils. But if I were to get something today I think I'd go with 3700 stowaway boxes. In drawers I use silverware organizers. I never knew how stupid expensive some of those can get. I just have cheap plastic ones.
As soon as Adam opened the draw my eyes immediately locked onto the blue and silver folding one. I’m like 99% sure (I’m only a few seconds into the video at the moment) that’s a “Kincrome” branded knife, and I’m that certain of that, cause I used to use the exact same knife at work for opening bags of sugar, cutting the wrapping off pallets, or whatever else I needed a knife for. I used one of them so much that all the anodising has worn off the handling surfaces, so it’s just the silver and bare aluminium now xD
Fellow FX gern here, add too your collection some hair shaper blades. Double Duck or Personna are my go-tos. You can sweep through flexible foams with them. I make brass handles for them (shivs).
These infrastructure videos are the main reason I subscribed and stay subscribed
That sigh at the end made me laugh SO hard!!!🤣
14:06 "Raptor Eyes"
You know you have too many tools when you look at one and say, "what is that." LOLOL
You know you have too many tools when you run across tools and think, I didn't know I had this, where'd it come from? I always buy tools I don't know what they are. I do that to find out what they are. Once I bought this weird thing and found out it was a butt gauge. That's right I got a butt gauge. I ain't never used it but I got it. I have gauged butts in the past too. I just didn't use a gauge.
I really need to adapt this foam core storage system to all the tool drawers I have.
Good job 😊
I remember buying three slide drawer organizers and being so excited in be done with fastener hunting. Once completed I still had a tray with random one offs... yep know that sigh all too well 🙃
Great video .
this guy can build anything
Best part of this video was Adam pausing for a few seconds looking at the Allen drawer then sighing with the realization there was more work to do. As is life. 😂
Am I the only one who read Workshop Blues while glancing at the thumbnail? It would be a great title as well 😂
Great video on how to declutter a drawer of sharps (knife blades).
Have you considered adding a pair of tweezers with this drawer? I don't want to risk drawing blood while searching for the specific ExactO blade. I can quickly stir an assortment and safely pickup the right one for the job at hand.
Adam seemed to say he really doesn't use the weird blades so much. Which is largely true in my experience. The small 30° No. 11 blade is the bread and butter X-Acto knife. It's the one I want almost all the time.
I see that mouse milk on the workbench. That stuff is great!
I hope we'll get to see the allen key drawer too! I work with a high school robotics team who has a cardboard box with "Allen key Box of Hell" sharpied across the top. Hoping you can point me towards a better plan!
Puddles Pity Party is one of my fave singers. His cover of Chandeliers is the best.
Great solution, of course, just amazed it was a custom fit 3D printed insert
I want ALL those stickers!
Hey Adam! That knife you couldn't identify is an actual mat knife. Get some Logan 270 blades for it. They work way better than a box cutter when you are cutting mats! (Sorry if 75 other people have already said this!)
Why at the end when you were saying all the blade types did i picture an interdimentional commercial from Rick and Morty 😂
You were busy looking for tools, but I studied the blade.
Honestly…. I love these videos. Is there something wrong with me? Lol 😂
I know that sigh... that's the sigh of "I did such a good job on this one thing, and now everything around it needs work, too."
Is that a Maker Knife from Giaco I spied in there?! I have one of those and love it!
I do too, I wish I could get another.
You need a milwaukee fastback knife. The one made from metal. I would also suggest the fiskers fat snap size box cutter.
Wow, that Puddles Pity Party sticker at the start!!
Do you ever do a full shop clean? Top to bottom trash out, organize everything.
New drawer looking sharp
Lol , looks like there have already been too many puns
A baseball stadium’s worth of people watching a guy sort blades. Gives you hope!
Love the puddles sticker.
Hey Adam never wrote one of your videos before but a long time watcher thanks for all the entertainment and content.I'm wondering if there's a story behind the puddles pity party. I subscribe to channel
Adam - have you ever used 1/8" - 1/4" hardboard / MDF for your drawer dividers? Seems to me it would be a more sturdy solution for you. I've been using hardboard dividers for years, and they've worked out great.
There's a tradeoff between durability and workability that should be considered. If you really don't need that longevity you can pick up some immediately appreciated ease of use. I'm sure Adam's foam core construction can last for years too. Just good enough and no better than it needs to be is a balance that is hard to strike yet worth striving for.
How much does the foam core cost? I assume a lot more the 1/8” hardboard… I 3d print slotted dividers to slot them into, just need to be cut to length
My most goto knife is still my Luthier's knife I made in college over 40 years ago (the blade's from a machine hacksaw)
I've got bought ones, fancy Japanese, and Russian ones... and I still use the one that was tailor made to fit my hand exactly 😉
Are you a luthier? I just finished Light from uncommon stars. There was a passage on violin repair that was sp beautifully written that I gasped out loud.
Anyone else really want the allen key drawer video really soon?

It would be nice to get links to a lot of this gear. i.e. scapals, snap blades refills, etc.
Small baggies for the misc exacto blades would be handy to keep them "organized" in a single tray spot, and less risk of jabbing yourself when trying to dig the one you want out.
Small baggies is for cocaine..
Seeing the allen drawer was like ending on a cliffhanger
It is pointless to organize excess Allen keys. There's no situation where you'd need more than one of a single size. So once you've put together as complete a set as you can you're done with whatever else you have left over. At least until you lose or break a key in the set you've made up.
The last time I heard this much talk about blades, I was at the barbers. After hours and hours of waiting he had finished. I walked out and thought to myself
“am I missing an Eyebrow?”
😆 He’s got a Puddles Pity Party sticker!! 🍻 ❤
You should get a OLFA knife, they have a really satisfying locking mechanism.
Dang, they're great!
Favourite is the one with the extended blade channel and the metal pick at the rear end. That one is so useful because it provides a very long cutting edge if needed and that pick is a tool of its own.
Adam.... Gridfinity. Learn it, love it, adopt it
Probably a better chance of seeing frogs fly 🐸🤣 I'm surprised the drawer liner wasn't plywood 😂 and duct tape.
