- Adam's latest long-term project comes to fruition in the form of the Good Samaritan -- Hellboy's iconic sidearm from the films. It's taken all of his machining skills and more to scratch build this prop from chunks of aluminum, and Adam has documented the journey in this new series of One Day Builds. In this first part, Adam tackles the oversized barrel and top rail. Thankfully, Adam has some great reference material and sources. Let's get started!

Every time I remember Grant is gone it's a punch in the gut. Guy was a big part of my childhood. Can't imagine having lost him as a friend.
Came here to say the same. We've been big fans at our house since battle bots
What, he's dead?! When, how!?
@@chuckaidensson1105 He died suddenly in July. Brain aneurysm. :(
Agreed, he will be missed greatly.
damn that sucks dude was a great mind
RIP Grant. Hearing Adam mention his name really hit me. Forever a legend.
his voice cracking really cut me. Its hard to imagine such a good guy being gone.
Grant Thompson or was grant the name of his co host
Rest? Rest where?
People like Adam don't believe that.
Though, I get the sentiment and it's heart warming.
@@kaseyr.4729 Grant Imahara. One of the original mythbusters, most often appearing alongside Kari Byron and Tori Belleci. I believe he worked with Adam on the prequels at ILM.
EDIT: He worked on all three Star Wars prequels, the Lost World: Jurassic Park, and the Matrix, to name a few.
wth i loved grant :(
Adam has the energy of a friend who wants to show you something really awesome and it’s great, I can see it in his videos
This is the best comment ever
I have a friend like that. He's an absolute walking geology textbook.
Mr. Savage has more trigger discipline with a prop than some other people have with real firearms.
Awesome build, looking forward to the whole series.
Mr. Savage has more trigger discipline with a prop gun than some other actors with a prop gun 😳😁
i was impressed but then i remembered the countless gun myths this man has tested himself
doing Mythbusters will do that to ya
I love that this video perfectly encapsulates who Adam is as a person.
He is going through immense grief, and the way he deals with it is by making something he loves.
It's oddly beautiful.
I like that
What grief is he going through?
@@terrydevlin3486 Grant Imahara, his close friend and colleague died.
@@terrydevlin3486 did you not watch the video he says that in the beginning
I made my dad's ash urn (wooden box) after his death. I think I kind of know how he was feeling. Very focused project.
am i the only one who genuinely enjoys these quarantine builds where he carries the camera around over the normal produced camera person ones?
Not me, I prefer the professionally shot ones way more
It's so wholesome and relaxing. Makes a change from the rest of the toxic internet.
No. I love them as well.
They are awesome. I kind of prefer them over the format with a camera operator. they seem a bit more personal.
I love these videos heaps more too. The weird angles and Adam fixing them half way through just makes it feel a bit more genuine somehow
This is really impressive work, you are getting dangerously close to inspiring me to go buy a mill and lathe
do it. its soooo fun. i have a mini mill and regret not getting something bigger.
@M Roth Couldn’t have said it any better. This is one of the cases were it’s easier to do small stuff on a bigger machine, but not easy to do big stuff on a small machine. There are a lot manual mills out there, most are really well priced.
Do it, do it, do it! Ah darn... Now I want to do it too!
First you find the mill you want then you design your workshop around your mill
@@Je3perscre3pers what mini mill?
I like how Adam actually knows how to film himself and knows how to get good angles of him building things, unlike other CZcamsrs (can I call Adam a CZcamsr?)
Can we take a moment to appreciate a 47 minute video posted without midroll ads? Bless you sir.
Dunno where you get that, I count six
None for me. ❤ Tested
@@iNerdier Looks like the algo shifted a day or so ago, and the ads went weird again. Messing with adblockers I think.
Got 3 ads. For 47min of video, not annoying at all i'd say.
There's an addon in chrome and firefox called "uBlock Origin", it's the best and most efficient one out there.
I miss Grant. He kicked ass. He’d have geeked out on the coolness you have wrought. Never lost, never forgotten but that sense of loss can be channeled, into craft. You did him proud sir!
Amazingly said. Thanks
Very sweet sentiment, agreed wholeheartedly
RIP Grant. I'm glad to see his life is memorialized by helping to motivate others to push themselves in his memory.
I have so much respect for this series. This was Adam's stepping stone, and the fact that he got over such a challenge of dealing with his world at that time and his doubts on his skill, is a testament to his work as a maker, and a human being. You learn a lot more than machine work in these videos.
Yeah, it's just as much about listening to him talk as the build itself.
Channeling the trauma of Grant’s death into prop making. What a perfect tribute!
I think you need to work on R2D2 though.
Channelling Trauma is my favourite actor from Magic Mike
@@MrSpannners LOL
1 day builds with Adam Savage: "I'm like 6 days into this build."
Who said it was an Earth day? You can get so much more done in a 1 Venus day build...
Its more like "one day..." Build
its a a Build 1 day at a time
All my one day quick builds take weeks to, so I can relate..:
The video is 24 hours long after the first edit.
Hellboys revolver: The Good Samaritan, a .22mm revolver that’s he acquired in the ‘50s, the metal consists of Irish church bells, cold iron from crucifixes, blessed silver and other mystic metals. It’s called the Samaritan because it puts monsters out of its misery.
It's a 22mm (twenty two) not .22 - To put that in perspective, .50cal is 13mm and 20mm is normally a military "cannon" or aircraft mounted weapon system.
I don’t mean it like I’m sayin point twenty two millimeter, I just mean it like 22mm, I put the point in front because that’s how most calibers are written down, but I’m sorry your right
@@davethomas1112 I was going to say that gun is huge
@@claytongoerlitz6250 The point is needed in those instances because it is an number in inches, for example ".50 BMG" is actually half an inch or 12.7mm.
@@davethomas1112 But with the decimal place, it’s kinda funny to think of the size of the barrel and chamber trying to shoot a .22LR lol.
As a machinist, I can wholeheartedly relate to "when you can't feel the separation between the passes, that's a good feeling." 🥰
I think the “one day builds” have developed a tendency to deviate from their original intent.... and I love it!
lostinperiphery I think your statement could be applied to so much of Adam's work, not just the one day builds.
Adam: "Here's my one day build but it did actually take 1200 milling hours and 4000 hours of weathering... Ok here we go"
All of us: *leans in and gets popcorn anyway cause we don't care that it doesn't actually take one day*
Let us call these all... one-ish day builds.
I’m pretty sure the first one day build wasn’t built in a day
With this and the Excalibur armor we need the Tested break off series, "Adam Savage's One Year Builds", we all love to see it
MIGHTY CALL MATE ;)
or "Adam Savage's X Days Builds"
“The Martian Spacesuit - 5 year build” 😂
Such a good idea
That click when he breaks and closes the gun is so satisfying.
The amount of time he saves by saying "thou" instead of "thousands" really helps in the long run. I mean he's already six days into this project haha
By the way, in all seriousness, I love how accurate and meticulous Adam is. I just started working in a machine shop and I can really appreciate the craftsmanship
Whenever I'm watching one of Adams videos I have to keep another Google tab open to convert to metric! 🤣
I don't know why he doesn't just say mil(s) which is the actual name of that unit of measurement (i.e., 1 mil = 1/1000"). By the way, when he says "thou" it isn't short for "thousands," it's short for "thousandths."
I feel like these videos are going to inspire a whole generation of machinists, and I think that will make Adam very happy.
Definitely already has I'm 28 now been a machinist for 10 years it's been my only profession for my entire adult life. Now there are alot of different factors that go into why I became a machinist but for sure part of it was watching Adam and Jaime make cool stuff on Mythbusters.
Adam and Jamie are my childhood hero’s. Never a dull moment on mythbusters and was the Greatest show on tv in my opinion.
You can feel the love for Grant from Adam and from so many other people. I'm sure he would have been pumped for this build!
You know you love Adam when you don't realize that you have spent almost an hour straight watching him machining.
Adam Savage: One Day Build
Also Adam Savage: "This took me well over 100 hours to complete."
He's talking in gamer days lol
Yeah, one day. That's only a portion of a day when you're a Lovecraftian deity
I think it's transitioned from "built in one day" to "actually getting around to that thing I said I would do one day".
Being a machinist myself, this video brings me great pleasure. There's nothing more satisfying than absolute precision. And whats even better is, i get to continue watching the guy I grew up watching religiously, doing the thing I have great passion in and would love to go to schooling for. Keep it up Adam, you have taught me a lot over the years.
Hey Adam! having almost 30 years in manufacturing, one skill I have learned and became very proficient in is EDM (electical discharge machining). The wire EDM process would have given you a perfect hole on both ends of the barrel. I know you don't have a wire edm in the shop, but this wasn't truly a "one day build" so you could have done it for this part of the process. You do have the mind of a machinist and I love that about you sir!
Dude making a good samaritan prop has always been something I wanted to do, it's one of my favorite objects in any movie and I cant believe you did it, great job man.
Adam Savage, Keanu Reeves, and Tony Hawk are the youthful old men of the internet
Fuuuck you're totally right
you re missing jack black...
did you potentially just pitch the greatest TV show of all time?? "Our Youthful Old Men" guest starring Adam Savage, Keanue Reeves, and Tony Hawk. Just follow them day to day as they all attempt to participate in the other man's hobby/profession. Imagine Tony Hawk wood working or black smithing with Adam, or Keanu learning to pop shovit. Maybe they could have guest celebrity stars participate with the projects. OH THE POTENTIAL.
You forgot Jack Black
Ave, this old Tony and the essential craftsman are the real deal.
That music cut in the middle of the barrel drilling montage made the bottom of my stomach drop out.
Adam saying dude with such excitement brought a smile to my face 😂
its wild how much better the videos are when its just adam in the shop, not that other dude talking any, not that terrible filming. it should just be adam having his own youtube channel.
Hell Boy actually gave me his to restore, but I broke it instead.
No
Also first to reply?
Well that sucks
I bought one of your first batches of wrenches a few years ago, its wonderful, thanks! :)
Did you actually? Dang, that's unfortunate. :
>"im really pleased about how its turning out"
Ah. Very subtle machinists pun there Adam. Love it!
Oh Adam, we are still so sad about Grant. I raised my boys watching your shows together. They both grew up to be engineers in AI, mechatronics, robotics, computer science etc and now working for IBM and Bell Flight. Thank you for the wonderful family experience and positive effluence you all had on my boys. ❤️
Feeling really happy to read your comment.If i had internet and you tube in my days i would have been inspired just like your boys and defined my career into an awesome engineer like them.Unfortunately im just an average IT guy now
@@user-ev9gk4vp8x I am one too, but I’m sure enjoying watching my young birds spread their wings and fly. :)
"There it is, exactly 1.32 inches"
*camera is blurry to the point where you can't read what it says*
Amazing work Adam! I've grown up watching you and you never cease to put a smile on my face.
10:44 "Ok, what are the next steps"
Rifling the barrel.
The entire time I was thinking that. I was hoping he was going to put some rifling in there.
@@danielbeaver8215 It'd be pointless, it's not like it can fire any blanks or live ammo. No one is going to see the rifling.
It’s ok to jump up and down when a bore turns out that perfect. I certainly would have
I don't think there is another creator on CZcams that can have videos last an hour, but still have me begging for more.....Adam sir, you are truly talented and I'm soaking up EVERY bit I can......I don't have a Bridgeport yet, but I do have a small mill and lathe, but I still have a lifetime of leading to do. And if I can learn 1 or more things everyday, someday I'll be creating things just like you.....thank you
I must say...in a world run by CNC machine & mass production to maximize profits this is the most refreshing channel on CZcams.
Doing it right. The right way, every time. No compromise. Quality. Love it.
"I'm not a very good shot, but the Samaritan here, fires really big bullets"
If ever there was a badass line said by a hero, this is one of them.
Usually its done with lathe, with drill bit stationary in tail stock and the thing being drilled rotating. The bit will self center.
Wow! Sitting here watching you bringing back so many memories. I can smell your shop from my chair. Beautiful work and yes the feeling when you build a piece is unbelievable. I spent 45 years + as a machinist. 20 years in the Marine Corp were I was the guy that unscrewed the mistakes of mechanics from trucks, weapon systems and AC. I than retired and worked at a Avation Depot for 25+ years and it was fantastic. I retired before the F35 came into the fleet. Love all the shows that you were in and still watch reruns on Mythbusters. Stay well!
Now this is how you honor a good friend's passing, by creating something beautiful out of love.
RIP Grant Imahara, may you keep doing what you love wherever you are now.
Often I sit and watch builds of yours and shout at you "do that again dammit, I know you can do better !!". But this build has just blown me away. Fantastic thank You
Thank you for sharing this tender and vulnerable time in your life. Unfortunately we all will have to deal with earth shattering lose of significant humans in our lives. I commend you on taking all those emotions and focusing into something that gives you eminence fulfillment and joy. This post can show others that we don't have too fall apart and get stuck in the downward spiral. That there's hope and fulfillment even in the worst of times and situations. So thank you Adam Savage for being strong even though being weak is easier.
I like how you start drilling out the barrel in 50 cal size. Puts the ridiculous size of this thing in perspective. I love it.
I've just begun watching this, but I had to stop and say that I was so moved when you said that part of your inspiration for this build was the passing of Grant Imahara. You no doubt have already heard this many times, but besides being just fun to watch, you and your crew felt like family when we watched Mythbusters (in my case, at least, because I could see myself in many of the things you all did), and it was utterly devastating when Grant died. He will always be an inspiration.
And now on to watching the rest...
Adam Savage, you were everything I've always dreamt on becoming as I grew.. Now I build everything I need or want as you inspired me to do.. So, thank you from the depths of my heart..
"Provisionally pleased" is My new favorite term
I've been working with machinist for about a decade. I share the joy of items coming together perfectly and it makes me super appreciative of those professionals who made those parts better than my napkin drawings expressed. Whenever I drill a hole pattern and everything aligns....super happy. I can enjoy they joy you express but I haven't come close to match drilling from opposite ends of a big hunk of metal. I would probably take some time off just to admire the achievement. This video had me squeeing with joy. Thanks for sharing.
I'm watching Adam make the Samaritan again. I watched them as they were coming out, but I felt the need to watch it again.
Watching Adam Savage do ANYTHING, seeing the joy in his face when things work out, ever since I was a kid watching mythbusters, I have thought of him when I mess up. Because then I want to do better, be better, and be joyful like Adam appears to be.
You're an inspiration Adam Savage. Please, continue to be the role model we all need and didn't know until we found you.
Having a gunsmith for a father, I already know the craziness that's about to happen with this build.
Has your dad watched adams video? I watched one of adams videos with my recently passed father. My dad was a machinist for 40 years and listening to him ribbing adams machining is such a strong memory.
As a Machinist, I am truly enjoying his enthusiasm for this, but I am also eagerly awaiting the craziness that's about to happen.
And you're probably, like me, wondering if he's heard of a gun drill...
@@aerofiend, I was a machinist in my "salad days' and I'm pleasantly surprised by Adam's progress in such a short time. He is (for the most part) learning from his mistakes and the advice given in the comments.
@@No1sonuk i was wondering wouldnt it have been easier to make this part the way a standard gun barrel is made however that normally is
Same! "Oh sure, this'll only take a few minutes" Hours later: "It's ready! It took much longer than expected, but the time just flew by, so it only felt like a couple of minutes!" And that's what counts.
Rest in peace James. You always reminded me of a schoolboy who all the teachers thought was a good lad, but that was only because you were genius enough to get away with being really naughty.
Might I say, I am LOVING the music that has been overlaid here lately. The blues and bluesy rock is the perfect touch!
I'm a third year mechanical engineering student and I always love watching these videos you make. Always inspires me to design parts and get to the shop.
Hello Adam, I've been a professional machinist for close to 30 years, for drilling long deep holes perfectly you should look into using a 1 flute Gun Drill.
I spent the majority of this video laughing about that lol
Wouldn't line-boring be easier, given that this is aluminum?
@@clehrich Line boring would also do a fantastic job, however it takes a lot longer to set up and depending on the size of your lathe you might not have enough Z travel.
@@t.c.sbunch-o-stuff5907 Fair enough!
Someone needs to get This Old Tony into contact with Adam Savage.
Facts
Actually, Joe Pieczynski did a video of the proper process to accurately drill deep holes... the drill needs to be "aimed" through a bored hole. It's an interesting process that provides amaingly precise results.
I was thinking that is more of a job for the lathe, start with a center drill, then 1/16" bit and work up from there until you get close, then finish with a reamer.
No kidding. I was scratching my head why he isn't using his lathe and taper length drill bits.
@@blackknightcustom i was thinking the same thing...
Thanks Adam a VERY longtime supporter of yours here, Grant would be proud, I think of your honoring him with that work. God bless and keep on keeping on.
If 2020 has some bright moments, it´s this. So many great builds! Re-watching for like 3rd time and I am not ashamed of it! Thank you Adam and team for keeping us entertained and happy.
The brief catch when he mentions Grant's passing... Now I'm balling...
daxriel you too? I had a random how I built my own R2 video come across my feed the other day and __I lost it.__
I would love to see Adam do a one day build of Vash the Stampedes Gun from Trigun! Awesome video!
I have long wanted to build a working VtS magnum (minus the whole planet destroying angle arm function) the similarities between the two makes this an especially interesting build.
Greatest "one day build" I've ever seen. Thank you so much for sharing this Adam.
"OK" is a fine segway from timelapse to monologue. I never noticed you saying ok to be honest. Fine content, keep it comming! You're my childhood hero, and a huge inspiration. Have been doing many fun mythbuster inspired stuff in my youth. Thanks to you! :)
I don't know about anyone else, but the "ok" each time you talk to the camera seems fine to me. Part of your schtick. ❤️
this was beautiful to watch, I'm sure Imahara would be proud to see you're still pouring your heart into what you love. you're a ledged Mr Savage and thanks for the content... stay safe mate.
Adam, thank you for chugging on. You're awesome. We've loved you ever since you started your show Mythbusters. The loss of your friend is truly shaking I'm sure and I'm terribly sorry for you. But in spite all of this, you continue, for the sake of entertainment. Thank you.
He mentioned Grant and I started tearing up with him. Grant, Tory, Kari, Adam, Jamie, Jessi and Scottie was my youth.
I would love to see Adam take on a gun from the Destiny series. They are always very intricate and beautiful works of art.
Never been this early, just wanted to say you've inspired me to start making. And I love every minute of it!
I'm so glad you've started machining and working with metals. The precision you can achieve and the weight / robustness of metal in the hand is so satisfying. I really hope you decide to revisit some of your previous builds one day. Maybe a new blaster?
I can totally relate to Adam's distractions in the middle of a statement. Even while trying to convey one idea, others are constantly pinging around in my skull, and come to the forefront at the most inconvenient times.
It's not a "one day build" anymore. It's a "one day he'll finish it" build 😂. Looking awesome Adam, I'm going to enjoy this mini series on the channel!
Thats how my automotive stuff goes...
@@mizinoinovermyhead.7523 that's how ALL my projects go 😂. Not even funny
Austin Patrick dude i literally have a car on my channel that I started back in 2017.
I know the feeling, lost three freinds this year to heart problems and I’ve been trying to channel that negative energy while still being isolated at home... truly depressing times. Rest In Peace Imahara💔
Hey man, I havent lost friend but Ive lost jobs and opportunity, and even if you're a creative type, sometimes grief and sadness gets the better of you. Its okay. I don't know you, but don't set expectations too high for yourself! Sometimes just getting up in the morning is enough
Mathieu Gatien Thank you,! Yes, wise words.
I like when you start each piece to camera with the same phrase. It helps me adjust from "montage mode" to "info dump absorbtion mode"
I was only going to watch the first few minutes or so, but as you went through the build your thoughtful commentary and attention to detail with the prop (I had no idea a gun like a break-action revolver could be so complex) truly hooked me all the way to the end! Excellent build!
"I'm provisionally pleased with that" 😂 I love that expression
I can’t even get my coffee cup to my mouth within 8thou....
If you don’t mind me saying this Mr Adam, I think this project marks a jump in complexity, and possibly skill level...accuracy across the board. it must be an incredible feeling to know that you can create such an amazing prop...I hope to see more prop creation videos...this was sooooo good to watch....fantastic work xx
I watch your videos and remember my childhood. My favorite show was Mythbusters. I watched all your episodes since 2006. thanks for the fun times
This enthusiasm is much needed in the rest of the world. Please send people some Adam.
While I think CZcams is a great medium for this sort of content, I was wondering: do you think you could also deliver it via IV?
I literally spit my drink out reading that 😂
Idk if you’ve completed this project yet Adam, however since Grant was your muse for this project it would be very cool if somewhere in the parts you stamped his name or scribed his signature in it. I find your skills to be very impressive and always take something away from every video. Thank you for that.
Doesn't he show the almost finished product at the start? I reckon he's finished it now.. although, the tested team have been putting out ALOT of content! Can't fault that!
I watch people build fixtures and tooling for the aircraft industry every day and they put less time into set ups than you do. Super impressive.
Looks awesome Adam! As a machinist I appreciate you diving into the challenge head on the old school way instead of having a shop with CNCs do it.
Sure feels like he's said "couple of thou" more in this video then I've ever heard before.
Chunks of scrap. That is what I wanna see at the beginning.

The 1855 10 gauge revolver video reminded me of this video.
You've done Hellboy cosplay when are you going to do Abe Sapien cosplay?
Can't wait for the one day build of the case for the Samaritan.
You have one of the best workshops. Glad you made your own channel, been a fan for a while. Keeps up the great work and never quit!!!
Watching you mill down the surfaces of those piece is SO SATISFYING!!!! I never knew. I could watch this stuff all day.
Damn, Adam. Getting that meet-up hole almost perfect on the first try.
That was some dumb luck. If I had to choose between being lucky or being good I have to go with luck every time. Because you can only be so good but luck knows no bounds.
Adam Savage's and Hellboy.....HELL YEAH!!!
Adam and jamie and the while crew of myth busters has been a big show i used to watch as a kid thanks for the good memories
I LOVE this stuff. He shows everything. If he messes up, he shows it, he doesn’t try to hide it and show “I did it all in one shot.”
