- It's finally time to resume work on The Martian spacesuit costume build! In the two years since we last checked in on the project, Frank Ippolito has moved into a new shop and has been chipping away on 3D printing crucial parts to the costume. Adam spends the day at Frank's shop to survey the pieces and start work on the helmet!

Has there been an update on this yet , it’s been like 5 years now since this began ?
Frank sadly passed away
@@AutismusPrime69 I don’t think so , seeing how he was posting yesterday ?
I think about this build every six months or so and come back to check. Cant wait for this to come around. Such an intricate suit and a serious feat, not sure if anything on this show has taken this long to complete.
It's been dead for years. I wouldn't be surprised if the parts have been thrown out.
....And that was the last time anyone ever heard of the Martian Spacesuit project...
It is currently June of 2020, has this suit been completed? Are you guys going to make anymore videos on this suit?
At the end of the video Frank says "yeah it'll be another 3 year's for the next video." Lol! Well here we are at 2+ years! When's the next video?
@@tobliusnoblius4656 He hasn't been a part of Tested since at least early 2019.
Who else was super excited when they saw Frank? I definitely was. Awesome work by everyone on Frank's team. It's also interesting seeing Adam working on something in someone else's workshop.
It is awesome you are right!
Cheers!
Me too! Been a fan of "Cranky Frank" from way back on Face/Off. Great to see how his business has grown, but he still takes time to contribute to Tested! Working with him would be my dream job!
I never knew about the "Cranky Frank" moniker@@TrickyZ33😆
Who else was depressed as soon as Norm showed up? I definitely was.
I am so happy for Frank.
Seems like the business have reeeeaaaally taken off.
Absolutely! I'm so happy for him!
he also just seems happier imo! so nice
Cheers everyone! I do miss doing tested videos, but I LOVE having a successful business of my own too!
Indeed. Can't wait to see him being asked to do space suits for big production movies, instead of replicating the props. :D
cycoholic- spoiler alert .... that’s part of what I’ve been up to this past year.
It's coming up on another 3 years. I can't wait to see the next video.
Asking again one year from now. Where is the suit?!
Alot of people roast Norm because be asks questions and seems to not know what's going on but that's a weak criticism because his role is to ask questions for the viewers even if he knows the answer so people aren't left in the dark
Dirty Bong Water- agreed
+1. It actually behooves Norm to be (or act) genuinely uninformed, because it makes the specialists naturally want to explain their work in an accessible way, rather than being a bunch of unintelligible insider jargon speak (to the wider audience). In fact, getting this video-friendly communication out of a specialist can be difficult (my manager has to do this to me on occasion), and Norm makes it look like a natural talent, intentional or not. This is especially obvious when he works with Frank, IMO. You can frequently see Frank stop to rethink his words and phrasing, or come up with analogies, when he starts to go full geek and realizes he's talking to Norm, and not one of his shopmates. Here's to Norm, putting in the work and taking the knocks for us Normies.
Yep, I'm sure Norm knows 50 times as much as he acts like he does, and he does a good job of paraphrasing into mundane English.
sure, but a 19 minute video where most of it is talk, feels a bit overdone. I feel I saw nearly nothing of the build. I mean I didn't even see Adam milling the aluminium.
I think Norm is very likable. In this video though he asks about the support material in the 3D print right after Frank already explained it to Adam. That question from Norm should have been cut from the video IMHO, but it hardly took away from the joy of seeing people fabricate. I could watch people making props all damn day. I love fabrication.
omg I thought this was dead. Awesome work guys!
This video makes me so happy I could cry. The Martian is my favorite movie of all time, not exaggerating, and Adam Savage is basically my engineering hero. It makes me so happy to see my hero so invested and excited by what excites me as well. I can't wait to see the final product.
This documentary is well put together. It’s communicated clearly and succinctly.
OMG did you see what just happened at 16:58 !!!! For an OCD like Adam if someone just walked up to my work space and rearranged it for no reason I’d lose it - I’d love to have seen Adams reaction lol.
Frank is my favorite tested member, apart from Adam of course.
Just got my Savage shirt and it is so soft! Love it and finally a Martian suit update! ❤️
100% worth the wait . Looking forward to the next update immensely . Great job guys , everyone involved 👏👏👏
Brilliant, and love how excited they are for this build :) I could watch Adam & Frank making all day long and I'm learning so much!
Awesome. Can’t wait to see the rest of this series. Please please please film the rest and share with us.
I just love seeing these guys work! It's amazing how enthusiastic they are about what they do and how good they are at it - really cool! And seeing more of that Martian space suit is really wonderful! Can't wait to see more at some point :-D Thanks for sharing this!
It's really starting to come to life from this point. I've been waiting forever to see this. Thanks for bringing it back guys. :D
I can't over emphasise how happy I am to have watch Frank's business take off, initially on Tested and then via Twitter. I really feel like I've had the privilege to watch a titan of the industry be born and follow them as they've exploded onto the scene. Give it a year or two, and Frank's props will be the ones everyone is trying copy, inspiring a whole new generation of makers and re-energising the existing one. I take my hat of you sir, it is extremely well deserved!
YES!!! This build is SOOOOOOOO cool, been waiting for this one a long time!!! Can't wait for future update videos!!!
Watching the three of you in a shop together makes me so happy!! Thanks for sharing!!
Yay for the next video in this series! It's so cool to see this finally moving forward. And I really hope we don't have to wait years for the next one!! ;)
This is THE BEST tested video I've seen in a long time. Good work!
Great to see you again Frank!
Stepped infill can save time and material. Also glad to see a larger shop having troubles with layer delam.
Frank Ippolito and Bill Doran could be long lost brothers
I always think the same thing
And BTW, the sewing girl could be the sister of actor Paul Dano ...
Bill has a twin, but it's not Frank. lol
I've always thought the same. There's actually a video out there of both of them working on something together for Tested, and the likeness was acknowledged.
I actually started to watch Bills videos thinking it was frank. Then I learned that they are in fact two separate people.
OH MY GOD I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!!!!
Seriously!! Took way too fucking long
I got premium two years ago to watch the updates. Wasn't sure it would ever be done
I went premium because of this project and still being a premium member for 3 years they told me in this video hahaha
Looks great! Looking forward to the 2021 update!
HOLY SHIT!! What a Shop!!
Snapping all that support off looks highly satisfying.
Wow, it really has been three years! So glad to see an update on this!
Dang. I wanna see more of Frank's projects. And I wanna see more of him (and team, of course) making those projects!
The original Martian suit build intro was what brought me to Tested, thank god it’s back!
Awesome, loving the enthusiasm and explicit attention to detail its been a long time coming but can’t wait to see the final product and hopefully soon 🤟🏻😁
Love the update. It really doesn't feel like 3 years since I watched the video of you taking the measurements of the suite :P What a journey it's been
Frank has such an amazing shop. everything is great quality and is allowing for some really huge projects, super excited to see more work coming out of that shop.
Has it really been 3 years! Top work guys, its looking stunning already!
"this is my happy place" -every maker while making. great video guys!
FINALLY!!! Totally worth the wait for such an insane build!
Its great to see Frank really expanding his workshop. I remember the days in his older shop there were only a few areas for certain processes, now he really has all that he needs. Good on you!
Best Tested video in a loooong time. Frank is rad.
Thank you!!! So excited to see the progress.
Even if its a rare sight to behold now, i love to see Frank back in the videos. Hope to see more great things from the both of you together on the future. Wish you both the best in whatever your up to nowadays.
Been waiting so long for an update, keep up the good work guys, don't keep us waiting so long
i love the excitement that both Frank and Adam display with this project.
YAY!!!!!! It's FRANK!!!!!!! I wish he'd upload to his own channel, miss his videos. (wish I could work for him and learn from him)
Fun fact, all the cameras that were on those suits in the movie were sourced from the actual action camera market. There's 2 Sony Action Cameras on the sides of the helmet and a GoPro on the shoulder boom. No clue why you'd need 3 forward facing cameras but that's what they did.
It's so nice to see Frank again!
Totally been waiting for this. Thank you!
Three years ago!! Now where did that go? It was worth the wait, looks awesome great people doing great things! 😍
Frank!!! It is always good to see him on the channel.
Still waiting. Please keep updating this!
I guess we will never see this build finished! Sorry no pressure just love watching all the spacesuit build videos!
Frank is back... YEAH BABY! Great video.
soo great to see what frank has become after face off!!
I just started printing my helmet for my Mandalorian Mercs kit and I have had some ghosting and other artifacts show in my prints which has made me nervous about how my helmet will turn out after filling and sanding, but seeing that Franks prints have the same issues and still turn out as well as they do gives me so much hope.
Mandalorian! ❤❤❤
That shop is amazing.
I've been considering making one of these. Looks like a TON of work for one person though. Great job.
That is so cool. That waste plastic can be recycled by the company that manufactures the raw extrusion. They regrind and add a percentage to a batch. You can work out a deal with them. Just keep it seperated by color and material. It saves them on cost and less landfill. win win.
From my understanding talking to a lot of filament companies at Mid-West Rep Rap Festival, East Coast Rep Rap Festival and Maker Faires, most don't produce recycled filament. Those that do it's more of a niche thing right now. Filamentive for example sources their plastic from "Material generated by households or by commercial, industrial and institutional facilities in their role as end-users of the product which can no longer be used for its intended purpose. This includes returns of material from the distribution chain."
I think I've heard of a few companies that accept waste filament for recycling but it's the exception to the rule. Let me know if you know of any specific companies that do offer it.
@@BallisticTech theres been some home filament recycling products, they arent very good right now though.
Oh my goodness I have literally waited YEARS for this! AHHHHH!!!
Adam, Norm and The Martian? Ugh. Perfect. 😍
Take your time this will be amazing
It's only been 1.4 years since the last update... in Martian years.
How many sols has that been?
That shop is a dream to me! I got excited watching this video and I wasn't even there!
Yay! Frank’s back!
It's been 2+ years since this video! Are there any new ones coming? I'm not on many social media platforms, has it been mentioned elsewhere? Hopefully the project hasn't been abandoned.
Looking good so far!
haha saw you earlier today on Tom Scott's video
WoW, awesome episode guys!
So cool to see Frank back on tested... I would love to get a tour trough his shop now he is in this massive space. OH yeah and I love the suit build tooo :D
This is stunning, when orange hits that helmet wow
9:03 Woah, those helmets have major ghosting/ringing artifacts in them. You guys should tune your 3d printers, or even better, have a 3d printer tech that makes sure you get the best prints to save time and money doing post processing.
Did some digging and the material and applicator for polyurea is stupid expensive and highly specialized. Too good to be true...
Awesome as always
I don’t think I’ve seen frank so happy in a video. This is very very cool
Coming up on those 3 years guys ;)
This has been the most anticipated video on CZcams
IT'S ALIIIIIIIIIIVE! That helmet print is absolutely beautiful.
Frank's shop is incredible!
Finally! Was looking forward to this. Whatever happened to the Devil Boy gauntlet build? I'm assuming they finished that as well? I was following that until there was no more videos.
Oh my!!! Can't wait for the next episode :D
FINALLY!!!! Been waiting for this.
Please can we have an update soon , I’d rather we didn’t have to wait another 3 years !!!!!
I immediately jumped to this video! YES
YAY, wow that is so kool to see that being built. Love it.. ty
I've been waiting!!!! I can't wait for the next video.
Wow! I didn't think that we'd ever see this again...
10:22 Did anyone else question the decision of letting Norm loose with a rotary tool on the helmet that took 70 hours to print?......don't get me wrong,I love the guy and all but sheeesh......I've seen what he's capable of with an airbrush.
YES! I've been waiting years for this!!!!!!!
WHY DIS I EVER LEAVE THIS CHANNEL I LOVE THIS
It's really weird that they haven't figured out that to deal away with the supports (read, mass of material wasted) all you have to do is print a few known dimensions in cubes before hand, and then as the print progresses, mount them (at a determined point in the print so you don't smash the riser cube with the head) in and go from there.
These would be reusable to the Nth degree as the printer would print on top of them with a modicum of support material vs the huge waste (in time and material) the current method uses. It's really, not that complicated, just needs an initial investment of time.
FYI, if a CNC is available, machining a cube out of wood and putting a platter on top (same material as the printer bed) is also a way for the riser block).
Also, that big printer needs to have rubber spacers installed on the steppers to soak up the vibrations...
YES! been waiting for this for so long
I freaked out at work when I saw this video was posted! Good to see Frank again
Amazing! Just so cool!
I have been waiting for this for so loooong
I thought this project had been abandoned. So glad it’s back !
Here's to three more years!
It's great to see Frank again. #teamfrankippolito
Norm taking a dremel to a print that good... Oh lawd have mercy
Can you do a overview of all the space suits you have Adam so we can compare the evolution between them?
May be a long episode as I'm sure we will never get enough of space suits insights and story's from you.
