Maybe yeah

Oh baby you are my supper hero.. love you guy's so.. so.. soooooo much
Sure
Next we need a working general grievous arms so you can hold 4 lightsabres!!!
this is actually unreal, and the fact that he actually said so nonchalantly "oh yeah no these are things we're gonna look at in the *next* revision" is so absurdly cool. i have so much respect for this channel and its dedication to thinning the barrier between humdrum reality and the fantastical
Ay he said next NEXT revision 11:06
ya wate he said
they are basically glorified glassblowing torches but nonetheless cool they could make them portable sized, i wonder what they'll use so the next revision burns hotter, possibly oxyacetylene
I feel like one day, They will create the light saber without a pack. One day..
@@encogneatoe4602 And that day will be in 2030 according to their own predictions 😉

Sword expert here
Handles or in this case a hilt are usually the size of your forearm. Pretty much enough to fit 3 hands top to bottom holding the blade, if you ever get the fuel in the hilt with this you just doubled the room for it
12:15 The Wilhelm scream as the Low Battery alarm, makes it hilarious to imagine the Obi-Wan vs Darth Vader scene occurring in such a manner, where Vader appears to be all big and menacing... And then his Lightsaber not only fails to deploy, but it starts screaming.
So uncivilized…
@@prophswrld this is the best comment reply ever
I can't wait until the Hacksmith team goes down in history as pioneers in real-life light saber technology.
It's cool as fuck, and what they're aiming for is awesome. But it isn't a real lightsaber. It's a Plasmasaber. Lightsaber blades are of Solid Light, our technology isn't nearly there yet.
@@rainbowsheep8811 still cool as fuck that we got hot plasma as a sword
@@rainbowsheep8811 don't bank on it
@@rainbowsheep8811 actually official Star Wars canon is that the blades are made of plasma
this was the start of the end of modern weaponry... before the lightsabers started being used
You're such an inspiration! The first lightsabers in the comics look just like this. You're literally throwing us into the future. YOU. ARE. IRON MAN
It would be interesting to see a reallife lightsaber used in a future film. Taking practical effects to another level
It would but it’s much more dangerous for any kind of special move and throwing moves are out of the question
I just think star wars should do an easter egg or reference to the protosaber in a film. or a jedi that has the protosabers hilt.
If this isn't proof that our platform leads to innovative thinking, creative thought, and useful inventions, I dont know what is. Hacksmith team, great work. Ever considered anti-phase lasers that cancel out at the convergence point? Cheers!
@Jack Wrath who asked
@@Yo-bj2rk ignore him , people like him do that to get attention thus money
@Jack Wrath I've watched your content that's a lie.

@Duck Dynasty 4 no, it's a self promotion scheme where he has a bot set up to say "my content is better than __youtuber__!" On as many channels as possible because either "any publicity is good publicity" or, he mistskenly thinks he can actually make do on it
The fact that in legends, in earlier times, the Jedi needed a small external power source on their hip that powered the saber through a cord. So technically other than the fact we don't have the force, or kyber crystals it's pretty accurate to Star Wars lore.

But then you hear a weird screaming
@@dahandsomeguywithcoolglass8949 *Wilhelm Scream*
WOOOAHH!!! This insanely cool!!! Hopefully the next version you guys somehow make the light longer so it won't harm anybody cause it's pretty short
Love the project and all the tech you guys coming up with to make lightsabers real.. but still looks like a flamethrower
What are lightsabers other then just flamethrower swords with extra steps?
The scary thing is...This is almost exactly what the prototype sabers looked like in the Star Wars universe
didn't realize the prototype sabers looked like glorified blow torches lol
Lol.
These a fancied up torches
@@IntoxicusFreeman Well...yeah..that's what a lightsaber is..
@@powercosmic4461 No it is not.
Lightsabers are NOT made of fire.
@@IntoxicusFreeman that’s why he said almost
Now you only need:
- Some ultrasound emitters to control the flame shape, especially to create an endpoint that does not look like a flame
- A solid retractable core that withstands the temperatures, so the blades can actually clash with each other (and not just pass through).
Give it another 10 years they'll get there eventually.
I thought about it and that's a great idea. They don't need the core to be as thick as the saber since it's not for appearances, the flame/plasma around it will do that. It needs to be completely heat resistant (apparently tungsten is the best for that, though I don't know if that's an option) and tough enough to clash with things.
Gyroscopic magnetic containment field accomplishes both those things.
@@EGarrett01 no tungsten will burn away, it need to be way more heat tolerable
@@thelastprussian6491 this needs a coil core with magnetic field, to prevent plasma of touching the solid core.
Or a metal blade with electromagnetic wave emitters (for example, UHF), those destabilize the crystal cells of hard materials (with resonance) on the blade's way, and ionize the air to create a plasma coating around the blade, which is held in the magnetic field. Like a power sword of Warhammer 40 000.
Look how happy those people are!!! This is truly the most amazing video about engineering I've ever seen.
It's really amazing how you finally test a 4500 degree lightsaber. Hope in the future you can actually make a real 8500 degree plasma lightsaber. Wish us for luck.
they actually are getting pretty close, there’s still the issue of magnetic stabilization and finding a fuel source that can fit inside the hilt. But the first problem simply takes time, and the second takes money. As long as people keep supporting the channel, they will get there.
Fully agree
It's coming!!!
🤣
And cool colors
Luckily, yesterday scientists discovered a nuclear reaction that is created in a tiny space that gives off more energy than is put in. So close!
I just love how much each design is following how lightsabers evolved in the star wars universe. Its truly remarkable
This is close to the protosaber from legends
@@novadust6195 that's correct. It was a hip mounted power pack in legends.
What if they had movies of it and were inspired to create them as well
@@TheJacobbridges25 I'm referring to the lesser known early versions of the lightsaber. The protosaber to be exact. Cute troll tho :)
i was thinking the same thing. when i first seen their first version of it those were my thoughts exactly. now if only we could get our hands on some kyber crystals and ditch the packs!
Great job hacksmith and all the staff members and sponsors that make dreams reals..
Man I love seeing these updates, Lightsabers have to be one of the coolest weapons in existence they’re just the perfect balance of elegance and also utter chaos and I love that! 😌 Can’t wait to see 2030s version
At this rate, they're developing lightsabers faster than the star wars universe, they've reached the protosaber phase!
No they haven't. It won't be that until the blade has some sort of magnetic field allowing it to deflect other plasma blades.
But I'm not trying to be a downer! This is definitely heading the right direction.
@@mayalackman7581in legends it took 1000s of years to even get to a protosaber which was inspired from the Forcesaber by the Rakatans over 30,000 years before the protosaber
Note: the time it took to go from forcesaber to protosaber was longer than the entire history of agriculture
You know something is well engineered when you let the public play around with it!

Please keep at your lightsaber project. I mean you guys are making so much progress please keep up the work. Thanks
"It's really bright!" 10:45
Hmm... almost like that paste you put in makes it a large version of a road flare!
14:12 It seems we will watch this boy's career with great interest.
Funnily enough, this matched the technological process of Lightsabers in the old lore. The first ones had to be connected via cord to an external pack worn on the back and then the belt as the centuries progressed, before power cell technology advanced to the point where the battery could be fitted inside of the hilt.
They mentioned that in the very first lightsaber video, the proper name is a protosaber
Yeah I can’t see them getting the system any smaller than this, unless they make some tiny tanks in the hilt though I can’t image that lasting long
@@RADkate if efficient biofuels become more common and develops to a point where it could be sold for commercial use then maybe
Well, with the current energy crisis we'll have to postpone a bit, I suppose.
@@bruh-fw7op oh yeah lets sell this 10 dollar light saber to the whole world nothing can go wrong!
Using a shockwave emitter could mimic the force, I’d love to see you recreating the force to go with these.
A good way for a retractable lightsaber that can be swung fast and not go out would be a tube that extends from the gas being shot out that has holes that cause the flame to shoot out from and from there the dragons breath thingy can be added so the ignition of the lightsaber isnt as aggressive
The fact that this all started over a hot rod is really a testament to how dedicated these guys are
I think that that rod is actually more realistic to how an actual lightsaber works. The one they have now just looks more like a lightsaber but doesn’t function like one.
@@ballsbruh1565 Uh, no. Its just that the movies concept is shit. They say its light but it acts like a solid just so they can fight, which is not how light works at all. What Hacksmith has made is what a "lightsaber" would actually be like
@@ludvig7473 the entire franchise would crumble if they weren’t able to duel with lightsabers. And your comment means nothing since George decided it to be this way, and what’re you gonna do? Change the lightsabers.
@@ballsbruh1565 George was wrong, its easy to imagine up a weapon in your mind, its much harder to create one in reality. Apply real world physics and chemistry to the star wars lightsabre and it couldn't exist. Density alone is unexplainable.
@@ibrahimhassan711 it’s a fictional movie. Real world physics don’t matter.
This series really shows trade offs in effect. They traded swinging ability for a rodless flame lightsaber that cut stuff, and then one day they'll combine both of them.
They tried with a metal rod, but when they're that hot, they don't stay straight. Very few metals stay solid enough at 4,000 degrees.
@@jackhemsworth7515 The flame was a good idea definitely a better way to be go. I feel like just because it emits light doesn't mean it's a lightsaber. One day though...
@@Guts-DemonSlayer yeah I 100% agree,the flame is way more authentic

*sad Elon Musk noises
Ahem, “People” the only People on the planet to be actual strides in real sci-fi technology..
Hacksmith is a team of very skilled people
Wow, to see the progress before my eyes.. I remember back to when they made the 2500 degrees tungsten blade lightsaber which is so inferior to this... Can't wait to see the non-hip pouch version!!!
It won’t ever happen without a gas tank hooked to end of hilt but won’t be as hot
Well not for a while
@Jack Wrath I still don't see you make a lightsaber
DONT READ MY NAME
this lightsaber would reduce the tungsten saber to a melted puddle
This is awesome. I was hoping to see weaponized photons but this works. Keep working gents.
I’m calling it now, they’re gonna be the ones that make this first laser lightsaber
Here’s how you could deal with moving the saber quickly, have an accelerometer in the hilt that opens the gas and oxy valves more the faster the saber is moving. Just an idea, great video!
Suprised I didn't think of that, but that may just work, assuming there's any room left in the saber that is
It might not work, the problem with it shortening isn’t from the outflow rate, it’s more of the flow itself, air disturbs it and causes it to recede, increase the outflow and when it recedes that’ll just make it hotter, not taller
This is just what I gathered though, might be wrong idk
maybe instead of just more gas, you decrease the size of the valve so it flows faster? adding more fuel would also help it stay lit
@@orian1427 I agree with Orain the most.but you all have great Idea's, I am just shocked at how many subs this guy has, I guess this means that being an engineer is good for youtubing!
@@prestongarvey2599 what would happen if the Saber was swung in a vacuum? Would it be able to retain its length? Or would it not turn on?
I love that these guys have gone from a dude in his garage to a team with a fully equipped state of the art mega workshop
They have Altium. That program is so incredibly expensive it makes other tools look cheap.
i like the casual dissing of allen pan and disney in the graph at 1:40
I had the same idea as them to make a lightsaber I'm just glad someone is doing it
Suggestions:
1: If there's still gas in those tanks, you aren't size-efficient enough. Compress the gas into a liquid.
2: The blade should contain an accelerometer, if it doesn't already. The volume of the light saber noises should increase when the blade accelerates.
That’s what I was thinking too. Liquified gas would give more material for far less volume!
But it would be shooting liquid gas???
@@zureroomsoesheh8026 as soon as it leaves the tank, the pressure would decreaase. But with the ongoing fire, temperature would increase as well. In turn that means that the gas would return to its natural state (gas) in an instant and wouldn't stay liquid
Yes but doesn't it take time for the liquid to boil back to a gas?
Just like refueling your gasoline tank in a car, it doesnt turn to a gas instantly right?
Wow, he really did what everyone thought was impossible

Its amazing i know it's going to take an extremely long time for you to create my favorite tyipe of lightsaber and dubble bladed lightsaber
It's crazy, in the old lore for Star Wars, lightsabers with battery packs on the belt was how they were built lol. Crazy!
Beyond Kylo’s saber, SW has done a good job really capping how absolutely insane and terrifying having one of these at your throat would be in real life lol

@@cohent9983 idk why, bullets and railguns seem the most energy efficient tbh
@@Arinussy bullets do seem more “efficient” but it’s always nice to think that there developing a new era of weapons and creating new things. i mean, isn’t that how we are here rn. from innovative creations made throughout the millions and or billions of years humans have been present on this planet
Its awesome how closely the development of their sabers matches the in world lore of starwars saber development
That’s what I was thinking, they at like super early proto sabers
The battery packs their using reminds me of the old lightsabers in star wars canon which used big battery packs to power them
What amazes me most is how they were able to concentrate the heat and light enough to make a retractable plasma blade
Right now, The Lightsabers are basically just compact sci-fi themed welding tools. But hopefully in the near future, The Hacksmith Team would be able to pioneer the world's first magnetically stabilized plasma saber.
That’d be quite the feat, and may lead on to the use of more laser based weaponry as they would’ve came up with a better way to control plasma in a magnetic field. Can’t wait
Don't hold your breath for that one. Magnetic plasma confinement is cutting-edge stuff. It's one of the hardest aspects of nuclear fusion and also one of the holy grails of rocket engine cooling. It's not happening any time soon on this channel.
@@sebastiaomendonca1477 yeah probably not gonna happen but can you imagine the looks on the faces of the world's leading scientists if these random dudes on CZcams managed to figure it out before they did? 🤣🤣🤣
@@sebastiaomendonca1477 I think magnets could be used if you had a solid core inside the lightsaber blade to house the electronics. That would ruin a lot of the things the current lightsaber has going for it, but it might look the most convincing when lit

@@vyorus1226 Well, one would be extremely painful and probably render you blind + give you severe burns, but the other is more than likely just going to straight up kill you, so I'd take sticking the lightsaber into my eye any day.
Can you change the plasma beam by adding frequency to it like you can with water? I’m curious if it does indeed affect the plasma flow if you can get a more stabilized beam.
oh my god the hip pack reminds me exactly of the protosaber from starwars legends, Its just a matter of time til we get an actual light saber which is cordless
I'm very excited to see where they go with this, and I'm glad he addressed the "flame" sabre stability. It's extremely intriguing to know theyre attempting to tackle thaat.
My guess is that they're looking into disrupting surrounding airflow with their own built-in fans on the hilt somehow? Like, forming a vortex of air around the blade so that it isn't as affected by crossbreezes.
Might also have the unintentional benefit of making it look like Kylo Ren's "unstable" saber too
14:30 this kid is going places.
Now all you have to do is to make your power source super small and super long lasting.
Now I have a theoretical solution but it's super expensive, super time consuming and very difficult to do.
Three steps guide, very easy:
1. Make a fusion reactor.
2. Make it smaller.
3. Put it in a lightsaber.
Bonus step: make an actual arc reactor and dig a hole in your chest.

Just gonna say, these guys are evolving the lightsaber faster than the Jedi were in canon
well yeah, because the finished product is impossible to make
Can we even call a Hacksmith saber a lightsaber? Because I don't know exactly how the lightsaber works other than it being powered with a kyber crystal, but they seem to be A) vety different and B) this project is evolving into its own thing at this point
@@alext399 its is possible if u get the fuel and igniter small enought to fit in the lightsaber, But it would be heavy asf
@@MiyusTab that’s why i said it’s impossible. they also can’t get the beam to stay still and be stable
@@Dawid23_Gamer an actual lightsaber is made from fire or gas, it’s light AND plasma energy which in a concentrated form wouldn’t be able to be ignited without burning literally everyone in the room, because to get to the point where heat becomes plasma thered have to be IMMENSE energy. That’s where the other crystal comes in as all the fuel and as a source to focus the laser, so without something like that i don’t know if we can ever get a plasma sword
15:01 That kid moved back like the younglings did
the scary thing is that thing would be horrifically effective as weapon against people armed with swords
you should try to find a heat resistant material that is possibly see through and make a layer around the light saber that can hold the flame into a compact shape so the light sabers can clash together and whatnot and is retractable with the fire so that it actually looks like a real saber. You should take inspiration from the actual toy light saber and make it compact like those except the blade goes all the way into the handle
Loving the fact that Darth Vaders lightsaber looks significantly more threatening, not to say the other one looks less haha.
So I’m gonna guess that I’ll start seeing the death star in the sky tomorrow 🤔 Haha, awesome video!!! :)

@@Starwarrior-pw5st like they're first blades that didn't use fuel?
I can see where this is going, more propellant to send the plasma to the general saber length, only problem is thermal dynamics won't allow you to do this safely. I think the hilt would catch fire/melt and you would use up fuel pretty fast. It shows me that a real working lightsaber with a magnetic field, proper heat and a strong enough power source is not within the realms of physics as we know it.
You are amazing guys. Jut keep doing that. I like and loved it very much
Here's an idea. For the color of the blade, why not just make a "kyber crystal" out of that flare paste inside the saber? ;) There's gotta be a way to solidify that stuff. Would make it even more authentic!
You can solidify anything by freezing it but that'll cause some foreseeable issues.
ok
This is the classic problem of technology being limited by the imagination that created it.
What a cool idea! Maybe to get around the freezing issue they could apply the paste to a small rock shaped piece of metal or something so that the "crystal" doesn't go away, causing mechanical issues, just the color would after a while, which is just about what they have going on now. Super interesting to think about
are you a brony
I always realized lightsabers would be super dangerous, but seeing someone actually turn on a real prototype and seeing them angle it kind of close to themselves in curiosity just makes me crazy anxious
you also need a core that opens at the same time with the fire so its solid too
I had a thought. Electromagnetism to keep the blade at a certain height from the hilt of the blade. (Also creates a protective barrier around the saber itself, giving it a harder exterior) like a real lightsaber.
It would be 5 feet longer to fit it

For the Darth Vader Saber you could build the power pack and electronics into the chest plate or utility belt of Darth's costume??? I'm sure you could custom build some miniaturised gas tanks and hide the pipes down the sleeve?
The kid with Grogu ears did the same reaction to the lightsaber turning on as the youngling at the Jedi temple when Anakin turned on his lol
In Star Wars Legends Lore, way before the Skywalker Saga (like 10.000 years before Galactic Empire) the very first lightsabers actually looked like this and worked like Hacksmiths version. Jedi Knights had a PowerCell attached to their belts. The lightsaber was then connected with a powercable to the powercell on the Belt. Later the kyber crystal which gives power to the lightsaber was redsigned and added to the hilt itself. Thats the lightsaber we know from the movies.
KYBER, crystal
it also said in SWOR about the lightsaber with wires
@@InosukeHashibira08 exactly, Im glad they put it in the game. I know it from a bunch of old legends comics.
@@LOKl. actually that idea is that they make the game realistic such as that's the start of galactic era where the weapons are upgraded
@@thevegastan Exactly.
This is really cool and also Lore accurate… in Star Wars, the first lightsabers were actually powered by a device that straps to the user’s belt.
Protosabers, we all know.....do not cite the deep magic to me witch, I was there when it was written.....SABERSTAFFS AND ELECTROSTAFFS ARE LORE ACCURATE....yes. we all know we were all there.....we know the lore......before protosabers, jedi and sith used swords imbued with force energy....bet you knew that though....bet most reading this knew that......that means they probably know about the protosaber too.....in the star wars community its common knowledge, or at least common enough that people don't just assume they are the only one that knows the lore and "has to tell everyone common knowledge"
Indeed
@@Hansolo-ft2ss hello han solo
@@Hansolo-ft2ss But Han, I thought you said that hokey religions and ancient weapons are no match for a good blaster by your side?
@@ennui9745 hes waiting, first comes the laser sword then the laser pistols
13:31 the guy: is burning a head
vader: reminds me bad memories...
btw in star wars lrore lightsabers use bateries to function and in the early days of the jedi order they had backpacks with bateries
You guys are amazing! I watched the "first" lightsaber build you guys did years back and this is an amazing improvement. It feels like the lightsaber development lore is coming to life.
Can't wait for these guy sto finally make a real life working AT-AT. On a serious note though, I think they have a budget to make an at-rt, shouldn't be too hard.
I mean, they made the loader from Aliens. Took them 5 years, but they made it.
I wonder what that in the background directly in the beginning and throughout the video is
@@elektropanda3571 Oh, I remember that video from a few years ago. Not something they built but got a chance to check out, it's a fully operational walker mech. I wonder what it's doing in the shop, good eye.

Jesus, it's like seeing how the tech improved within the lore.
for future versions i reccomend using CFX (crystal focus x) or something similar as a sound system as there are already "sound fonts" that you can download plus it makes the swinging sound dynamic instead of a set sound like shown here: 6:28 and it may be possible to modify CFXs hit detection system to work when hitting another lightsaber of this type but im not entirely sure
a proffie sound board may work better due to it being more customisable.
proffie and cfx boards are the most used lightsaber soundfont boards and are used in most custom lightsabers that you can buy
Radiation?!.
A Proffie soundboard would probably be better for the Hacksmith team. They're basically a purpose-build lightsaber arduino, and they have a lot of customization that can be done with them. CFX might be just as good, though.
It looks a lot like how lightsabers originally looked. The with we’re actually the ones that made cordless lightsabers. Awesome work!
I think I figured it out all Jedi lightsabers have a guard on it so they can choose how much damage their weapon does so if we put a energy Field around the beam then you can put any amount of heat out and just contain it
They should do this with the lightsaber: have it surround light metal with a high melting point to get the same slice and still get that “physical” element that lightsabers have when they clash, the metal could possibly raise in a column system similar to those cheap plastic “lightsabers” you find at Walmart, with the flame/laser rising around it & with it, just an idea.
14:54 The terrifying light dagger!
Man of the year
I am so impressed by the strides they’re making. I can’t imagine the technical difficulties of it, but I will be most impressed whenever I see them obtain longer blade length. I think that’s the only thing that’s really keeping it from being complete. Proto or not
@Jack Wrath No you're not
@Jack Wrath Make at functioning proto saber, oh wait you can't. (I can't either but my ego isn't as dense as the sun)
@Jack Wrath imagine not having good content so you say hateful things so people notice your tiny channel
A full custom nozzle would significantly improve performance.
DONT READ MY NAME
10:45 hahahah Best moment by far! This is so cool!
it would be cool to find a trasparent material that cover the lightsaber and take the heat so you can take a lightsaber with another one like a duel
