  • Adam puts together the very complex and intricate assembly of 3D printed and machined parts for his NASA ACES spacesuit helmet replica. This helmet includes contributions from multiple makers, including The Broken Nerd, Punished Props, and Shawn Thorsson. And as is sometimes the case with a One Day Build, this build isn't without its complications.

      Hey adam, could you someday design a simple DIY spacesuit and actually test it in a vaccum chamber? It would be so nice to see what you came up with given your experiences with spacesuits.

      Adam Savage’s Tested Not sure if Adam knows about it. But Tamiya has a new line of masking tape that is very much like the pin striping tape. It is very thin. Comes in multiple widths. And is extremely flexible! Great for markings curves! I’ve used it and it’s great stuff!

    Hi Adam,
    A tip for everyone when mixing paints -
    Get a good supply of syringes from the drug store. Then you can mix exacting amounts of your colors.
    This is also a lot cleaner & does not leave paints dribbling down the outside of containers.
    If you make records of the quantities as you go it will be a lot easier to re-make that particular color again in the future. Otherwise it is a bugger to try and match them again.
    Make more than you need and keep the leftovers in another container. This will help for touch-ups later on or to help color match a new batch of paint / lacquer.
    When spraying, get a card or scrap sheet to fire a test on first. This will help to get your "Spray Fan" and "Flow Volume" correct before attacking your new-to-be loved project.

    • @carliegriffiths6290
      @carliegriffiths6290 Před 4 lety +6

      this is great technique. my partner is a classic car restorer, so has to often custom mix paints, as the original paint code doesn't take into consideration the different formulas of modern colour tints, and also the way that paint ages. Unless you are doing a full respray, there is always a tweak to get the right colour match. you can log it in a book, with the customers name, so if they need something else doing later, you have done the brain work already.

    The ACES is my favorite suit of American space flight, it has a unique look to it, it’s industrial it’s designed for a specific job, it’s not meant to be glamorous or the star of attention but that’s what I love about it, it’s the suit you’d imagine a space shuttle crew would wear, shuttling cargo to orbit in a sci-fi movie in a weathered worn shuttle craft wearing their pumpkin suits, I can imagine them in a space port standing out in a crowd or in a seedy space port bar wearing them having drinks and awaiting for a cargo load.

    Can you do a video explaining how the real helmet would seal? You've spoken about how complicated the locking systems on the real articles are in a couple other videos, and even if it's not possible to recreate the tolerances without significantly more intensive equipment, it would be really cool to understand the concept that allows, for example, the edge of the clear face shield to seal and maybe how the bar helps that happen? These are all awesome builds man, thanks for doing them!

    if you do get overspray, we use shark paper in high end finishing. also use cling wrap to cover large rounded or odd shaped portions and tape it to the tape. also the more red you have the brighter it will dry, the more black the darker it will dry. I am surprised you do not mix your own paints by now, its fairly simple use a good quality scale to weight out your pigments. then you can tailor it to what ever application works best(IE stain, or solid, oil, lacquer, or water based.....never use water based on wood, stick to laquer) always always always remove your tape right after the paint flashes.

    • @athens400
      @athens400 Před 5 lety

      I don’t get why people get so riled up over the word sewist. Language is an evolving thing and as the sewing makers find the english vocabulary lacking of an appropriate word for a person who sews they make one up. There are several reasons why one would avoid the word seamstress:
      It’s gender specific.
      It doesn’t traditionally include the creative process but rather only the manufacturing. I.e. one who operates the sewing machine, not the one who creates the garment. The machine operator at a car factory isn’t a car maker.
      Seamstress also generally means sewing as a profession, excluding the hobbyist.
      Dressmaker doesn’t cut it because that’s limited to women’s clothing or at best general clothing.
      What you should be advocating if sewist gets under your skin is the word SEWER which is a word, is in the dictionary and all that jazz. Plus it has the added bonus of being a heteronym with the poop and pee kind of sewer.
      Me, I kinda like sewist. There is certainly a need for it.
