Thank you for a wonderful year of content! I feel enlightened and ready for the next year!
Unfortunately the soldering iron (TS100) can't be powered by USB as mentioned. For that you have to use the TS80 iron and a USB C (PD) supply.
I seem to remember that Trevor Noah had one of the principals of The Center for Policing Equity on his show a while back. If I find the link I will add it here. A very good and important project.
@@killnineza Thank YOU!
Adam Savage and his “job”.
Honestly the only person on the planet I’m jealous of. (...Not stalker jealous.)
🖖😎
So absurdly honored to be included in this. Thank you for the last ~twenty years of entertainment and education! We love you!
Those sfx were awesome! Very cool.
That piece was great
I'm the blocker/finisher at O'Farrell Hat Co. I helped make that hat. Cool to see how much he likes it.
How much would a hat from there run a mere mortal down?
@@MysterySemicolon A pure beaver hat starts at $1,000 US, but a beaver blend will start at $825.00 I believe.
that's a fine looking hat. You folks do great work. I'd like one, but unfortunately custom made hats are significantly out of my price range. Keep on making them, though. it is becoming a dying art.
WOW! AMAZING! And yes, he ADORES the hat.
That's an expensive hat! Better start saving, because if Adam's reaction is anything to go by, its worth every penny!
Adam Savage is quickly approaching the existence level of bob ross, Steve Erwin, and Fred Rogers.
facts
Excellent observation!
His passion is infectious. Overflowing with ideas and builds. His wife must be very understanding.
Very much yes! Also, I would like to add Carl Sagan.
Unfortunately he is way too political to be any of those men
That video edit needed a Wilhelm scream when Adam fell off.
bwakenshaw - dang. Missed opportunity. Maybe I’ll add it in the special edition.
Maybe not wilheim scream but something when he launches the lightsaber on a ballistic path ;)
@@bernieponcik1351 nah, it has to be the wilhelm scream
@@Jm0417-s You're right, tradition and funny!
@@theActionMovieKid that or a Maclunky
Adam, I have a weird head size (large) and got my head measured at OFarrell too! As I was leaving an older gentlemen commented that they made the finest hats and that he'd been shopping there for decades because they will repair any hat they make for as long as it can be.
They still have my head shape index card... Waiting for me to save up some funds and call back with an order...
I know since it is a custom hat, pricing varies greatly, but if you don't mind me asking, how much did you give for yours?
@@SleepFaster18 I didn't buy one but a top of the line hat was $300 to $1200 from what I recall. It depended on materials and options as you can imagine.
Adam wears his emotions on his sleeve. It's all good.
...and apparently he wears his sleeves in the mud 😅
Brandon oh my god I burst out laughing when he ate it that was so unexpected 😂 love the fact that Adam can laugh at himself.
With all those hats I think he wears them on his head.
My favorite thing of 2019 has been introducing my 6 year old to Mythbusters Jr. and Sr. My second favorite thing is the picture of him posing with the Apollo Hatch maker project at the Smithsonian.Thank you for the inspiration and imagination.
Great list! My favorite thing from 2019 was getting to meet you!
Wishing you another fantastic year in 2020.
Wasn’t expecting you here
my favourite thing for 2019....a book called " every tool's a hammer"
Or the hammer made with that book
Can we get a walkthrough of that little tool stand for the soldering iron?
Yah, is there a build video for that somewhere? I'd like to see the battery adapter, or find out where i could get one.
There's a video coming up. Stay tuned!
@@sgtcrtrdnl Look for the knockoff dewalt usb charger that attaches to the battery. Easy to modify.
@@imjustabill247 right on! thanks. im planning a portable mini air purifier build and similar to that soldering station, i want battery power for it. Thatll help me out a lot!
That would replace my old gas powered version. It's a clumsy tool, that melts everything within 2" radius. Thanks Adam.
Things haven't been great lately, but coming back to good ol Adam, remembering a childhood watching him on TV and hearing that same enthusiastic voice just did wonderful things for me. Thanks all over again
Love your enthusiasm for life and good things and imagination and especially your fellow people! Peace and Good Fortune to you and your family! May you continue to inspire us!
Without being grounded, fantasy has no real use. Without fantasy, reality has no deeper meaning. It is what myths and art are all about. You sir, are someone who knows this to be true, and your enthusiasm, creativity and love of creating things is an inspiration to me.
The guy who did that CGI sent his resume to the SYFY Channel ...the saw this video and said he was over qualified.
The "special edition" of your fall is amazing!!!! Happy New Year!
"Pure beaver custom made for savage" 😂 hope that was intentional
Always nice to stick your head in a beaver.
No other feeling quite like going head first into some quality beaver.
That Star Wars addition to your One Wheel clip was awesome!
You are my favorite thing of 2019
Thank you Adam, we're grateful for you.
Hi Adam, many thanks because since 15 years ago you give us funny moments and big inspirations....really envious of your cave ... ;-)
Holy crap the video edit by Action Movie Dad was AMAZING!
Germany does Christmas better than anywhere in the US. I was stationed there for 3 years and I was never disappointed or not surprised by how much they come together to celebrate the holidays and the street markets are just pure joy. We in the US have commercialized the holidays into nothing more than buying junk and getting drunk.
Killing Commendatore was fantastic. I don't know if I would consider it my favorite Murakami book but definitely up there!
Even the good wishes of our wonderful Adam Savage couldn't prevent 2020 for being that destructive
My favourite things of 2019 are my mini Dachshund brothers Ernie and Bert.
I am just simply overjoyed that the universe aligned so perfectly that these beautiful gentle loving hilariously funny creatures have come into my life.
Happy new year everyone.
One Wheel: That is SO Adam Savage. I will laugh about that for weeks; if not years to come! GREAT special effects add. As a person with disabilities falling like that reminds me of the fact I to am human! It would seem that Adam sees that too.
Your closing statement warmed my heart knowing that the TESTED staff, and corporate view, is remembering the viewer and those that support the efforts of TESTED. May you all have an incredible 2020 year.
Happy new year Adam, you are such a positive force on the internet we seriously need more of that and you on here.
"The tool I have added this year is, this thing."-Adam, 2019

It's a ts 100 if you are interested. There is also the ts 80
The TS100 soldering iron is an absolutely mainstay in the RC hobby world. You see them in use by a lot of quadcopter pilots, myself included. Wonderful piece of kit!
Love your channel and your videos Adam, but for real...where is Simones favorite things of 2019??
It's nice that this guy did something to make you feel better about your accident.
That's a really nice guy, I definitely have a lot to learn about such wonderful character.
6:46 That Star Wars edit was awesome! Almost worth the fall :)
I love binge watching all of these cool one day builds. I loved watching the model making and kit bashing or smashing on Tested. I love everything about this show. You get some very entertaining ideas about doing things. You are and your colleagues are Jack of all Trades and Master of all of them. Binge watch many episodes on this UA-cam show. More please for 20/20.
I remember a long time ago getting excited when I realized he was a hat guy. I didn't know other hat people existed! Lol. Amen brother! I'd love to see his collection!
The premise for the book "Underground Railroad" is what every seven year old thought it would be in history class. Choo-Choo.
Love the hat! Id say you got the brim size and pencilcurl pretty darn close. A edgeband on that pencilcurl brim would knock it out of the park. I actually have the repeating carving pattern for "man with no name" hatband, not one of the halfassed efforts you can find everywhere, but as close to screen accurate as it gets. It is kind of hard to get the carving pattern and tooling just right, and will require some customisation of a couple of stamping tools and a good swivelknife. Took me a while to figure it out :)
Does anyone else love the dirt under the fingernails close-up during the soldering iron segment? Adam - a true maker.
Hey Adam, big fan. Thank you for the amazing vids this year. IMO, you're the leader in this maker community we've all managed to throw together, you're the one who inspired me to get started. I personally really appreciate the time you take out of your (surely) busy schedule to keep making yt videos for us. These vids always feel more authentic and genuine than anything else and I really appreciate them, and you.
Cant wait to see what you have for us in 2020!
Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!
Sitting 4 months into 2020, I almost teared up at your optimism for the coming year as you signed off
I saw them using that TS80 NovelLife soldering iron in the Savage Builds Dogfight Derby. I was waiting for someone to bring up how revolutionary it is. I started using one about a year and a half ago and I bring it everywhere. It reaches operating temp in seconds is cool to the touch in seconds, tips with the heating element built into them so they are replaceable consumables, not to mention having a portable soldering iron is invaluable(USB C capable battery pack required, make sure it has the 5-12 volt rating). The last decade has been a magical one for soldering irons as a result of the NovelLife!!!
Yes! I knew that video was going to make it in! That made me so giddy
I saw Adam in Sante Fe...buying that hat. How cool.
Yay! I remember recommending a TS100 when I saw you solder with your gas contraption. So glad you like yours!
Reason nr 7923 to love Adam Savage: pulling Killing Commendatore onto his best things of 2019 list.
Adam , New Mexico is the best state ever. Lol I been here for many many years , so I understand the joy witch you felt for your holiday. It is a wonderful place to visit and live. We have great pride. All this being said I visited San Francisco and loved it as well. Brother keep up the awesome work! From Albuquerque NM. Love y'all !
You read like I do when you love a book re-read it immediately. I am glad you found the perfect hat. It looks beautiful.
Loved that video of you on the one wheel, it had me crying with laughter. Thanks Adam
absolutely one of my favorite videos to look forward to throughout the year. Thank you
Hahaha holy crap. I’m a skateboarder so I know that fall real well from hitting a rock. You took it like a champ.
The worst type of fall, especially when you’re just cruising and relaxed.
The Underground Railroad was part of the Canadian curriculum when I was in grade 5. It is absolutely a powerful book. I was touched in the same way, years later when I read the book Obasan for a university course.
Binged watched this guy as a kid
so glad i discovered this channel.
What a fall! At first I thought I was looking at a video game capture-- especially when that "rag doll" figure dived on its neck. Very nice save by Action Movie Dad! I'm sure it's better than all the physical therapy in the world! Excellent bonus content for all us Tested members.
CFE's pretty cool too.
Adam is truly a man of many hats.
I’ve wanted a Onewheel ever since it was in your favorite things years ago. Fingers crossed for this year being the year I pull the trigger!
Did ya get it
Josh Conner I did :)
Murakami is such a great author, his stories are so great.
Thank you for everything you have done this year test
Perfect for electronics soldering .Adam good one
Not grounded, right?
Adam Savage posts something..anything.. I click, I like.
love that hat!! I wish i was anywhere close to new mexico so i could go get one!. thanks adam and tested your rock!
I wasn't going to get out of bed today but now I'm making coffee and ordering books. Thank you Mr Savage. Oh, I'll send you a picture of my son's new hat. I can't wait to put that measuring thing on his head.
Would love a video on the hat collection!
Hugely fun, thank you thank you. It's too bad 2020 has been such a bummer so far.
I know, but it’s the little things we all need to focus on
Adam: Loved the hat. Adored Action Movie Dad's "improvement." Seriously miss Mythbusters and the gang! Best to all and a very Happy New Year!
that is such a good edit to your fall
Your logo should have the L in front of the G. It looks like a handicap icon currently.
Was cheering for Adam in that video.
I'm pretty sure the micro USB on that model is just for changing settings. There is also a newer USB-C powered version.
A Very Happy New Year to you and Everyone at Tested.
Health and Happiness to you All.✌🏻🖖🏻👊🏻
If any show deserves a revival it’s Mythbusters.with its original presenters
watching this in mid june 2020 the CPE one hits different
Adam thanks and have a great new year too!
My favorite things of 2019 . Adams new book. Adam retweeting me twice on Twitter. My wife and family and my one wheel pint. Also my new DeWalt drill from my parents. Rocket book for putting drawings, ideas and to do list down. I can't wait to see what 2020 has in store.what would Mark Watney do? That is my new slogan for the upcoming year.
Wow! Never reached a video so soon. I just wanted to say, I love watching your videos. They are so inspiring and truly allow for a wonderful learning experience.
Love my ts100, have you put the third party firmware on it? A worthy upgrade
What does the firmware upgrade do? Thanks!
@@bishopvick6373 it adds alot of extra settings and allows the iron to get hotter aswell
Gotta love a good hat, Adam! I'm right there with you .:)
Pual's Hat Works in the Richmond Dist also uses a conformiteur to make custom hats.
That hat looks crisp.. I want one
I’m a baseball cap kinda guy, but that is one beautifully made hat.
@11:03 the precise moment that 2020 went down the tubes! You jinxed us man! :{J
Ok that Star Wars edit was just pure genius.
Thank you Mr.Savage and Tested Crew. You have and continue to inspire and inform folks who truly seek the useful and practice knowledge. Thank you all and may the New Year prove even better than the last.
One of my favorite things was most certainly your book in audio form!!!
Oh snap, Adam Savage yard sale!
Nice work ActionmovieDad!
Dear adam, im a very fan of your stuff since Mythbusters showed up. By the way your skills inspire me down to create things and improve myself.
In fact im always dirty nails and dirty clothes, and i felt that i am very dirty dude, but now i saw your nails and now im more inspired. Jajaja.
Thanks for your channel and creations.
The first person who inspired me was my grandfather he was a carpenter. Now i improve with you.
Star Wars Edit FTW ... Happy New Year Adam and Tested!
Happy New Year Adam love your channel big fan and will be for many years.
Oh man that soldering iron looks amazing. The silly thing I have now doesn't friction-lock into the power outlet, so I move my hand and it unplugs itself. Drives me crazy.
And that digital display is niiiiiiiice.
Happy new year in advance!
Thank you Adam and the Tested crew for showing us all these great things and taking us along for the ride :)
Tested has definitely been of my favorite things of 2019!
Thanks for great content in 2019 and happy new year to all the good people at Tested! 🍾😘
Great job this year! Keep doing what your are doing. I can always use more geek stuff in my life. You and the staff of Tested not only embody "geekdom" but you guys live it. This brings an authenticity to your site that is both real and unique. I have learned much watching tested, it truly is a community based on making for makers. Looking forward to 2020.
The video editor put in the extra 10% to time that fall with what Adam was saying. Bravo whoever you are.
So awesome for you to mention action movie dad for that video.... i saw your joy when you tweeted it, and to name it one of the best things in 2019 is just amazing... :D
THAT EDIT so good
O'Ferrall hat company makes some of the best hats in the world. They made the hat for Longmire and so many others. I so wish I could get one.
Ok wow the Star Wars special affects was kool, but the lightsaber part was INSANE
7:04 I yelled OH MY GOD. I'm glad you're okay and that we got some cool new Action Movie Dad footage out of it!
Running into you around SF on my Onewheel would be my freaking dream come true.
I always look forward to these segments every year.
In 2023, your sign off is absolutely hilarious.......
