- Today Dan and I brought to realization a project Dan's been scheming up since before he even worked for me. A weldless, forgeless, glueless mace, help together by interlocking pieces and friction.

bruhhhh
uhhh yes yes I planned this, very big brain
I actually kinda like the minecraft vids, very entertaining
@@ZNA_Productions like ya cut g
@@ZNA_Productions Most certainly big brain. Most certainly planned.
We have ZNA over here looking like a WW1 Trench Raider, scary.
Dan needs his own armour, he's already like 70% Viking
Vikings didn't usually wear a lot of armor. Maybe a half Helm. Get him some leather and some fur he'll be fine
if he can come up with the designn 0_0
@@ashleysanford8645 vikings actually had some pretty decent armor. Chainmale was common for them.
Despite pop-culture representing them as wearing furs abd leather and little else, there is nothing that backs that.
Ashley Sanford broad statement, most 'vikings' usually had some type of armour, whether a gambeson or mail shirt if they had the money, i think you've been watching too much history channel
i’m loving this editing just thought you should know the hard work is not going unappreciated
Thanks 🅱
This feelin like a classic zna build
Yeah it does. Cool, I think the Dan is working out.
Dustin the Wind The pumpkin damage test really sold it for me
Certified hood zna build classic
@@dustinthewind357 Either that, or he has some kind of weird allergy.
Yep. Only the quality of the video production matches the awesomeness of the build.
Eli in the old crusader fit looks like a hitman.
Me in my head: That's dumb af why would he look like Hitman in armor
Sees Eli actually walk on screen: O.O
Maybe he should tattoo a Barcode on his backhead🤔
He looks like he could go toe to toe with Odin
@@ivolocoso6989 I mean it is crusader themed, so seeing it's relation to religion that kinda makes sense.
Ahhahahahaha I literally just came to comment that too
he looks like an old retired paladin putting his armor on after years of trying to forget what he had seen in the war just so he can defend his village from demons (Pumpkins)
That’s quite a genius design. Thanks for sharing
Just got here from your mace vid, lol
@@mackcollasius3690 haha, well thats a bonus isn’t it.
And here I am thinking this day couldn’t get any better.
countries went to war today
@@old_pork what countries?
Yes. Sir.
The chad Alex Steele cracked me up so much
We *need* more Dan.
The armor and the shaved head made him look like he’s just been waiting for the government to become tyrannical so he can overthrow it
I'd take tyranny over a bunch of waspy old men long into their second infancy more interested in their schoolyard bickering than actually doing their fucking jobs... If we were oppressed, it would mean someone actually gave a fuck.
as if they arent already
Rj Peterson you...youd prefer a tyrannical government.... You realize the implication of that right?
He looks really good with short hair and those brown eyes.
Or rambunctious commies/looters who have wandered a little too far away from their state-approved destruction zone in the city out into the places where people will help them find out if they fuck around.
The 7 dislikes are people without angle grinders
They have grown to 30
Now its 50
61
@@cerving20 19,000 vs 61, they just got ratio’d
i rewatched some video and find the dislike button clicked when i know i had enjoyed it, probobly fat fingered it
Man that armor got me feeling all nostalgic......remember that first crusader armor goin up n I was hooked. You been doing good work since then, man. Just keep doing what you want. We're here for it.
My man Dan needs his own set of armor too, Eli!
It's true. Coming soon!
@@ZNA_Productions In due time the prophecy of the Dan will come true.
@@ZNA_Productions yes, I'd love more armor builds, especially since you can weld it
@@ZNA_Productions I hope his looks more viking to suit him
@@ZNA_Productions bruh you kinda lookin like cancer boi
That's a weird kind of nostalgia seeing you break out the old armor like that
yea makes me think about 2015-16
Eli in apocrusader armor looks like a final boss you’d find in a throne room deep in a hidden cavern
When Sweden started playing hit hard, we all know we play minecraft without the music, but when we listen to it outside it's so nice.
Who tf is out here playin minecraft without the music
*Okay now make a crossbow that can launch this like a arrow*
Ay yo
A visionary
I think eli is pretty much done with crossbows. He sorta has a long and storied love-hate relationship with them.
send it to joergsprave... he will do it
smis84 LET ME SHOW YOU ITS FEATURES!
Eli looks like a zombie survival group leader. I'm so happy to see the armor back
Dude, you look heckin scary when you put on your serious face with the armour.
Skyrim Smiths: looking to protect yourself or deal some damage?
Eorlund: Gods be Praised!
"I didn't give birth to you for nothing, Dan"
Every parent ever*
@@E__Saurabh lmao true
Eli is just preparing for the apocalypse in a more serious way now. Being bald and have a bro there is a whole other level of prepping
Quick on and off for helmets
This is the stuff we’re subscribed for! Any builds like this, they genuinely don’t even need to be this good. Some of your budget builds, like the cheap spears were some of your most entertaining videos
Faaaaall is the season offff... bashing and thrashing and smashing the pumpkins to pieces with smiles on your face and the feeling of grace😌
Good to see the old armour come back, heck yeah
nothing says ZNA like some sheet metal and an angle grinder.
I used to watch you all the time before I joined the army you helped me through so many hard times and days where I couldn’t get out of bed you made such an impact on my life that when I was 14 I tattooed zna on my wrist and I still have it and this video just brings me back. Thank you
"Hey Vsauce, ZNA Eli here."
The apocrusader is BACK!
No, not the ApoCrusader. The ApocaTitan!
When I saw him pull the armor back out I actually got chills.
The armor was the best fan service I’ve ever seen
I showed my mom your forge video because I wanted to build one, long story short, she loves your channel and constantly tells me how funny you are! Love your videos man
why does Eli, when he's bashing pumpkins, look a little like Vladimir Putin.
Lol
He make papa putin so proud
Becuss I am strönk
ZNA Productions very stronk
Don't you mean "look like a little Vladimir Putin"?
Damn! Eli looks like a total bada- uh... bad bum...
Kinda takes away from the cool, yknow, aspect of the word... he looks awesome in the Apocrusader armour bald is what I'm trying to say
YOUR A MAN OF JESUS
bruh he looks so sick without a helmet we need to normalize helmetless Apocrusaders
Hi Eli! I'm from the Philippines. There are hardly any channels and such people who have the same or similiar creativity as inspired by yours. I started my youtube channel with a fitness content intended to be about getting fit for the apocalypse and such etc. I'm an avid fan of your work and regardless of how short and literally of one video you have about fitness(aside from Omarisuf's video of you doing deadlifts), it really has helped me become inspired by your works. I'm after all down on a budget and very inspired to become a youtuber such as you, especially with the creativity but still heavily focused on fitness itself. If there are anymore Zednought greek names available, I am free to be christened by you, the official and only Zednought Alpha himself. Thank you!
It's always nice to see a Father and Son bonding over a weapon build.
if i didnt have parents I'd want Eli to adopt me
“All you really need is an angle grinder and some files to make this”
*proceeds to use drill press*
And a hammer! 😤
@that guy, over yonder rock? Nah too fancy i use morning wood as a hammer.

This build is the type of thing that could very well be mass produced at some machining shop with a water cutter and sold for a pretty competitive price. The head design is pretty genius I think. Seeing that its cut from a piece of flatbar makes it perfect for water cutting.
This is pretty much the perfect mass produced mace, a factory could arm an army in no time with this design
Two videos in less than a month? WOAH THERE SLOW DOWN
This was great smasher of punkin, but this video left me wanting only one thing.
A tiny Eli ApocaCrusader BobbleHead.
O.o
Yknow, all things considered, this Mace 2as beautifully engineered and Dan should be very proud. The handle carving was a nice addition as well and actually inspired some work I've done on an axe handle recently!
So nostalgic when you pulled out the armor. Favorite part of the video !
I believe they call that faux-wrap thing you did a flute.
you my friend are correct
"eli why'd you smash that pumpkin"
"that wasn't me it was Patricia"
Countless years later and I’m still enjoying every video
Epic build.
Really like the simplicity of how it all goes together.
Loving that Minecraft music in the beginning.
Same though
Just everywhere in this vid
"Good morning. Sunday morning" so thats what she meant, that the next (this) sunday is gonna be E P I C
😂
Good to see that your Dan isn't just another pretty face but a good designer in his own right. Love your work. Stay safe in this screwed up world.
Bolting the flanges together so you could grind them all at once is some serious big brain shit 💯
Poggers moment
No disrespect to Dan, but I've seen a few channels I used to watch go from co star to host. Hope this channel stays Eli.
He knows the channel's my baby. He respects me, and I him.
Welding in a classical way without a welder 하는 방법을 찾고 있었는데 이런 방법도 좋네요
Damn I can't believe I still watch you, I feel like I've grown up with you. Love all the effort man seriously
That's what happens when you have the best tools,,, everyone wants to come over and use them or borrow and it pisses me off when I have to hunt them down...
Eli: Then we're gonna smash some pumpkins
_minecraft lofi remix starts playing_
*Aw yeah, its all coming together.*
This mace is sick! The extension of the pipe below the flanges looks like it'd be good for parrying or something too.
Awesome build vid!! Does feel very nostalgic.
And YES bringing back the crusader armor!! 🇺🇸
You look like Reese when he went to Military in Malcom in the Middle.
i think you mean he, since reese is a dude, but I can see it
@@grenshaw6836 yea, sorry for the typo. Thx
5:27 BWAHAHAHHAHAHA
That's a really cool mechanism! Possible addition for more weight(could see there was some lack of momentum through the pumpkins...): tap several large nails into the head around the top. Should add some extra weight compared to the wood, and still expand the wood enough for a tight grip...
Watching you change over the years had been both a pleasure and a honor. From NonLethalByChoice to ZNA Productions.
Eli, you've inspired almost an entire generation. I hope you get to inspire many more as well as give them common knowledge and teach them to be creative.
Live long and prosper.
I’ve been watching since the bonesplitter build, you’ve gone pretty far since then!
Also, ever consider joining ZGB?
Yoooooooo he gets it
I'm technically already a cast member of ZGB but it never really came to anything lol.
@@ZNA_Productions damn. I didn’t really expect you to respond.
ZNA Productions what ever happened with barbell brigade?
Why would he go down a rank? Eli makes maces that hold themselves together and takes lashes from a whip like it's nothing. The dudebros over at ZGB duct tape a ball of scissors together, swing it around on the end of a string, get a minor cut from it, and go screaming to the hospital for stitches.
In fact, I think the only reason Eli went for stitches was because the callouses on his hands were too brawling to push a needle through to do it himself.
Me: "where have i heard those song beats during the video ?"
Also me staring at the creeper in the corner of my room 11:11
I thought you were talking about the minecraft like beats at 3:17
Dan is a very cool addition
What a throwback - the mad max bracers, the apocrusader chest piece, minimal tools build, and Dan's back in the picture.
Epic look and design doable! Well done airs!
The beat is like Minecraft’s old OG soundtrack, love it 💯🔥🔥
I’ve been watching this channel for so many years and the content has never ceased to be more amazing each time I check back in. Eli you are the man, please keep it up!
Your armor reminds me of deadspace. Also you and dan always have awesome builds in these videos. Truly inspirational in the best ways! Keep taking care of yourself and being your awesome self man!
This whole build and video felt really professional, keep it going!
That felt so right... Hit home, really did :) Loved it!
Miss you Eli, loved the background music too!
Fantastic video, fantastic build, and extraordinary style. Well done you two. :D
The mace looks sick! A really cool design also the no welding idea is a really awesome one that I would love to see again
Very much an epic design Dan well done!
I friggin love this channel. Been subscribed for years now, and I love the way the channel has grown. Your editing style is righteous, and original. Keep up the great work.
good video and build, nice to see you come back and post again feels good watching ur vids.
Aaaahhh dude! Love the teamwork! Real quality build!
This is just ingenious great job guys
0:03 like ya cut g
*slaps violently*
Good job, guys! Love the engineering that went into making the mace head, and the handle looks great as always lol
I'm glad Dan is here to help with the upcoming battle against he who must not be named. Tis almost the season.
Thank you ZNA,
Very cool
That is one wicked looking creation. Nice.
Amazing guys this was a real throwback and many more are very welcome, Also seems like Dan needs some norse themed armour apocoviking!!!
Looks great. Love the end
Best build!! Got the hint of Minecraft music and then a solid throwback with the crusader armor. Totally epic. As always
Hey Eli, I really hope you're doing well in life man. I haven't watched your videos in a while but coming back is like being home again. I grew up watching your videos, from the very first ones to this masterpiece. I appreciate your work and I hope you go far🤘
You can tell so much effort was put in this video
Thanks for the vid Eli. I was having a tough day but this made it better.
BROO I would always watch your videos all the way back 6 years ago and you had a couple thousand subs. It’s crazy coming back seeing you with 1.22 mil!!! I’m so happy for you bro can’t believe it. You always entertained with your vids. Coming back is so nostalgic and I love how the edits are. Keep up the amazing work bro.
This is a cool modern materials weapon video. Really neat construction too.
Way sweet build, end result looks epic!
Love the nostalgic feel, with lovely editing. Been rocking my gray ZNA hoodie all 2020 because this is it, lets make a happier apocalypse together.
My day just got a heck ton better thanks Eli
Watching your videos are therapeutic
So I’m building a custom Tusken Raider gaffi stick (practical, not a prop) and I got hung up on the spear/finned end. I wasn’t sure exactly what to do. Then I remembered this build. That mace head is truly inspired (grips beautiful too Eli). I think I may draw inspiration for my gaderffi. Thanks!
