I really wanted to make this out of wood at some point when was very young and not a good prop maker. And it turned out horribly. ( think of it from a prop maker point of view, as a toddler trying to recreate the Mona Lisa with a stick of charcoal.) I can’t tell you how happy I am to see one of these things, while it actually looks great, while also being fan made. I love this. Ps: when I started watching you, I always wanted to be like you, and be able to make things as good as you do. And watching your videos over years and time, has improved my skills by more that’s normal. You helped me achieve that, and I thank you for it.
Odin it would really dope to see your take on the original 1978 Michael Myers mask… seems extremely simple to a sense but also extremely challenging! I know you could do it bro!
There are dozens (possibly hundreds) of sculpts to recreate the original '75 Kirk. Each one is aimed at recreating a certain look from each movie - the Castle stretch being one of the hardest. There are even pulls made from the scan of the original mold. None hit all the marks. It's an exercise in futility for so many.
Using this video as instructions as well as the template I made one of these for my Cousin who is a HUGE Michael Myers fan, he absolutely LOVED it. Thank you :)
I totally thought Someone unplugged an Odin robot when he stopped talking and just stared into oblivion. I was like dang that’s an awesome prop that he made. Think Odin was going to pop up any second. Lol
Simple, but full of useful techniques. Thanks. Watched Dune this past weekend. I know it's a variation on what you have done already, but can you do a Freman Stillsuit Mask?
From watching way too many episodes of Forged in Fire, I have learned that those metal bolt thingies that go through the handle to hold the pieces together are called "pins." The two sides of the handle are called "scales."
You did a much better job than I expected. Knives are just something many people can't get right in foam. The only things I would have done differently would be in the handle. I use exclusively vintage wood handled cutlery in my kitchen ( most between 30 and 100 + years old ) and you will always see staining around the rivets and around the edges where moisture has rusted the tang and that iron oxide has leached into the wood. It would not be necessary for screen accuracy since the knife would have been relatively new at the time, but I think it would age relatively quickly with Micheal using it without care or cleaning.
O my days, yeeeees odin, what a simplistic yet legendary build, do love how stumped you made ure self whilst solving the same problem hahahaha ha, keep em coming...
Hey Oden! I really think you'd do a great job at tackling the 1978 Myers mask, not even from scratch. I reckon you could even transform a William Shatner mask to the original Michael Myers mask. I think you'd do great and it'd make for an amazing video!
What I usually do for the rivets(that's what I assume they are) on either armor or knives, if I don't want to feel the rise, is take a straw, or a small sharp tube about the right size and press it in fairly hard, and you should be able to see it, as it leaves an impression, and you might be able to do it after you paint to get it more noticeable
I've been wondering for some time now..What does the plasta dip do? Does it just give you something for the paint to adhere to? Or does it give the prop the rigidity?
Plasti-dip seals the porous surface of the foam to provide a smoother surface that's primed for paint. The reason traditional primers aren't used for foam builds is that the props have to flex a lot (because the foam is soft) which will crack a lot of traditional paint treatments. Plasti-dip is a flexible rubber when cured.
Does anyone have any rotary tool/dremal recommendations for use on foam like Odin does? Trying to get more into this but finding it rather daunting. Ta x
I'm thinking to make this particular project, however going to try to make a PAI core sandwich. I made that before to do some other projects and worked amazingly fine.

Odin just standing there staring at the wall off camera is so relatable to those of us with makers brains.......love it
agreed.
My immediate reaction was "he's either thinking really hard, or not at all..."
Thats where the planning white board is!!!! Always need reference;)
“Makers brains”…
He stood there for 7 seconds before he figured it out, that's 2 hours in my time haha!!
"I usually make my core out of..."
*_[MODEM NOISES AS ODIN REMEMBERS ABOUT GRAPHITE RODS]_*
2:16 lol.
Awkward silence
but this goes to show that people are not perfect and they make mistakes.

@@MBrulla they are not scanned, they are recast off an original 75 Kirk
18:13 This frame is just so violent, i love it!
"We'll Be Right Back"
This had such an amazing chaotic energy, I loved it
Odin taking a knife to the neck like a champ. There's a reason they named a god after him.
19:00 The frame of Michael Myers watching someone fix his knife and being surprised at how well it works is hilarious
I've never felt more represented than by Odin talking himself through projects
I literally yelled “RIVETS!” Out-loud when he said “I’m sure someone’ll tell me what these are”
Thanks! I think I heard you...
@@OdinMakes
I can’t believe 2 of my comments received replies from you
This is amazing
Tang pins
Odin: “uh i like to make my core out of uh…”

Can you make a ‘reverse bear-trap’ helmet form Saw? I think it would be AWESOME if you could wear one of those around a con

Odin! Ever try making THE micheal myers mask ? The Odin way?🤔
the "How It's Made" style music gets me every time
I totally thought Someone unplugged an Odin robot when he stopped talking and just stared into oblivion. I was like dang that’s an awesome prop that he made. Think Odin was going to pop up any second. Lol
Why is it that whenever I go through a phase of liking something Odin makes it XD
I love your videos Odin.
Big fan here from North Wales in the U.K. 🏴 🇬🇧
The fact that for the second half of the video he had a black smear on his face from the foam powder made me smile
Simple, but full of useful techniques. Thanks.
Watched Dune this past weekend. I know it's a variation on what you have done already, but can you do a Freman Stillsuit Mask?
Just saw Dune last night and oh boy is there so many great things you could make from that.
Odin makes: good content
Thank you so much for this video! I am being Micheal Myers for Halloween and this would go great with my costume.
This is gonna help with my cosplay so much. Thank you!
i believe its official. odin has lost his mind. great build as always.
Thank you for sharing your mistakes too. Shows you’re human and mess up just like we will, even with all your experience.
Odin is a funny guy.I love is work,way to go...
The knife scales are held in place with pins. Source: Forged in Fire
or rivets depending on the maker.
they're rapid rivets, not pins
@@pilummurialis6490 varies from knife maker to knife maker
Useful for conventions. Sick
I've seen like 5 of your videos and I was thinking, when's he grabbing the graphite rod? Love your stuff, really creative.
Great tip with the rub n buff, might have to try that instead of chrome spray paint
It would be cool to see you make the mask as well!
Your an inspiration truly
Fantastic job

Man Odin this looks sick.
My favorite Halloween 1978
Nice Shape pun
Great project! Very simple but looks amazing!
O my days, yeeeees odin, what a simplistic yet legendary build, do love how stumped you made ure self whilst solving the same problem hahahaha ha, keep em coming...
It's funny how often I 'solve the same problem'. Or totally forget how I did it years ago!
I would love to see you make the mask out of foam next, just like you did the Hockey mask!
Man I wish I had skills like you
Very awesome build! 😆
Thank you!
You should have done a still shot, photo, of you looking through the mask, holding the knife with Felicia screaming in background..lol
The night he came home... And made another awesome foam prop!
HA! :)
Very very cool
Thank you!
Lol like the bot st the end Michael is memorized by his work
this is so cool man
So realistic xx
the small wood grains suggest that the scales are made of oak wood, and they are called handle scales, and pines to hold them on
*pins (pines)...
@@DontAskWhyItsJustCuz thanks
That really helped on my myers costume
Really like the simplicity of this one. If I recall correctly, the handle pieces are referred to as "scales" and they are held on with pins/rivets.
SUPER COOL 🎃🎃🎃
Chucky prop build for next year! Lol another great video Odin.
Ooo- ooooo- I know! I can make Chucky's butcher knife!
Dam Michael was VERY interested in the restoration of his knife.
Love ya odin!
So can you use rub n buff on the Halloween kills prop knife from trick or treat studios?
That is so cool
Make a venom musk nest
amazing man love it

YES!
For creating a smooth finish, have you tried contact cement, plastidip, contact cement and finally plastidip?
radical! you should make zero from megaman's helmet
I will make this!
Now, *that* is a knife! 🔪
Finally! You got Freddy's glove,
Jason's hockey mask and now;
Michael's knife.
I feel the same way, and Michael is my favorite!
@@OdinMakes I hope next time you get Leatherface's chainsaw (depending on which movie).
@@OdinMakes And Jason Voorhees
is my favorite slasher villain.
great work Odin i have been thinking of becoming a prop maker or working with props in some way
Can’t wait to see you make leather face’s chainsaw one day

Odin do something from dune. Perhaps the crysknife or the stillsuit mask
Wrist shield generators from Dune would be awesome.
Have you ever thought of using a knife sharpening machine to create the edges. I would think it would be a way of making a smooth even edge.
I've been wondering for some time now..What does the plasta dip do? Does it just give you something for the paint to adhere to? Or does it give the prop the rigidity?

Wood side - scales
Metal inserts - pins (gives mechanical stability)
Does anyone have any rotary tool/dremal recommendations for use on foam like Odin does? Trying to get more into this but finding it rather daunting. Ta x
ooh, you did it now..... you gotta make a gremlin!!!
Could also seal the foam with resin/epoxy. More stiff, yet still con safe, and easily sanded/painted
When I need a giant butcher knife to chase my neighbors I just grab the one from the kitchen and it's really sharp!

what kitchen set did michael get this blade from is what I'm wondering
Buying cheap metal rulers works wonders for stiffening thin knifes too. Can usually cut them with pliers too.
Halligan Bar from Halloween Kills would be awesome
Cool
cool bro🙂
For the fun of it, try making a myers mask from craft foam !
You could make a thinner blade by making a core from Sintra or coroplast.
Goddamn you Michael!
20:26 Michael Myers on every Halloween party.
“*uses real knife like a chad*”
The Halloween pumpkin explains alot in the teaser post lol
Funny enough, I did this build two weeks ago with thermoplastic lol but amazing nonetheless
