The lightsaber thing is cool with emojis
Yes

@@ironstonefoldplays4871 how does he do that custom emoji thing? So cool
CZcamsrs and their secret rooms lol
Next up going down... 😆
At least they didn't build a secret underground bunker and tunnel system. That would just be insane.
@@theHacksmith Let's just hope your property management company doesn't see this video.
@@TheRavenCoder not yet
you made an underground bunker, and now him…
Filling up a gun safe with toilet paper inside of a bathroom in a secret room in their workplace is the most hacksmith thing ever
It's always great to see someone make a real liveable and not temporary hidden room.
Absolutely love it and when I get my own land, probably with a fixer upper house, I'm making this sort of hide away room. There's something peaceful about it to me
Well tahts the thing , it’s hidden✨.
@@avokka how much does that cost
@@WhiteGoodman666 alot. (probably, i dont have one)
This video is filled with 100% OG hacksmith energy! The kind that turns any viewer into a jealous kid that wants to build their crazy contraptions in the attic. I missed it so much!
Exactly!
I felt it too..
Yess
"you can tell it isn't load-bearing because the wall didn't collapse" is probably the best quote from this entire channel
I actually said out loud, "Yet."
Did they actually use these flimsy metal studs for support?? That can't be, they must've reinforced the structure
“You can tell it’s not load-bearing because the wall didn’t collapse :D” - James
@@bilijoful They put a lot of timber in after cutting there, and they had that pocket reference book to tell them what size timber. It was just... _after_ they cut that one flimsy metal stud. :)
@@eekee6034 Pretty sure metal studs aren't meant to be load bearing anyway. Hopefully that platform has something else holding it up.
I love the idea of a secret room that every single person in the building knows about
*Every single person on the internet
It's like Colin Furze's "Secret" underground tunnels.
@@celticwolff5429 lmfao yes, I saw a Reddit post talking about how much that tunnel is costing him to build lol. Somewhere in the 40k range
I mean if they all know about it no one will walk in on him changing.
@@skiFsballs he easily covers that with youtube income
This is a fantastic idea for james specifically with all his mental health issues. But the only thing i think about is that the staff should maybe also have something similar, a relax room with comforts to help them unwind during their breaks etc. at work. Imagine this but a little bit more communal, like how Linus has his games room and cinema room etc. I love this approach to stimulating the brain while at work to allow stress levels to fizzle down for an hour or 2 during the work day before cracking on. We have all seen the studies that a happy worker is a productive worker.
This honestly might be my favorite of your videos. It feels so authentic, like the spontaneous passion project it is.
exactly, it reminds me of a lot of the earlier vids back when everything was a passion project, before the pressure from CZcams began to get to James
This is so wolesome seeing James take care of himself, not just physically but mentally as well, he's having fun, he's getting into his own projects to build things himself along side his closest friends, and staying safe while doing so, he's not just surviving he's living
Yesss that’s what I thought about this whole video because this was HIS build that he wanted to do and he was so genuinely happy with it. We love you James we’re here for you
Agreed. We need more.videos of James doing things he enjoys
Huh when was he not he's always seems like hes having the time of his life no matter the project.
But I mean 30m commute? Oh no.. lol
yes.. staying very safe while doing so..
Imagine if no one actually had any idea he built a secret room, I'd love to see one of the employees watching at power and water consumption and be like: "Hey james? Do you have any idea why we are consumming so much electricity and water outside work hours?"
“Make the plan, Execute the plan, expect the plan to go off the rails…through away the plan.” -Leo Snart (The Flash)
thank you i heard him say that and forgot where ive heard it before lol
I loved that quote and I actually started to say it
The fact that one of the secret entrances was inspired by a secret passage at OmegaMart is JUST SO COOL!
Nice to see James actually use some of the money he's made for his own enjoyment. The man deserves this and I couldn't be happier for him.
And a build showing that, at least in decor, haxagons are the bestagons!
@@MonkeyJedi99 HEXAGONS AR ZE BESTAGONZ
@@tronicalli7587 *tf2 medic voice intensifies*
Hi
All the crew reactions to actually seeing the full build was priceless. An amazing build, as always!
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@theHacksmiththis is epic
Live in zee pod and eats zee boogs!
My favorite part is that all of the employees and now the entire internet knows how to get through each of the 3 secret entrances.
Maybe there's a 4th...
15:25 its all fun and games until your friend witnesses your heartrate go to zero mid-sleep
One of the few out of millions of CZcamsrs that actually has brains , engineering skills, and the knowledge of what he doses and what we want. Hats off to you BOSS!
The amount of energy that James has now is uncomparable to before he stepped back to let the other guys and gals do videos, I'm so glad they made that change to allow him some much needed rest.
This is EXACTLY like building a secret hidey-hole in your minecraft single player world that you only know about
*except everyone knows about it
bulid on top structural sound sand
Michele Molteni did it before, check his minibunker
@@IceYetiWins And it's multiplayer lol
so true bro
I felt SO claustrophobic the entire time until you revealed the secret latch in the clouds to the roof, SO SO happy to see some natural light and air come in
honestly I've wanted a house with a secret room/passageways my entire life lmfao, and this looks amazing!! I love how much you were able to put there, water and ventilation included!
James is currently living out the fantasy of a lot of us in having his own secret lair. I'm jealous of him, and all the props to him for pulling this off!
But in all seriousness, it's great that he seems to be doing better and is taking care of himself, both physically and mentally. Major props to you and the team for pulling this off ^^
haha lol, i mean yes but the team really goes through hell to be able to do all this stuff. They live on a coin with sides of heaven and hell but we just see heaven. It's crazy though
For those wondering; the fridge entrance he mentioned is part of the Omega Mart attraction created by Meow Wolf. The entire store it resides in is based on supernatural, uncanny shopping mart experiences, such as self aware cleaning bottles & lemons with an eye. It's an amazing experience & has a rich, bizarre, hidden story behind it that you can discover like a giant ARG (quite literally one if I'm not mistaken).
Been there!
@@APersonWhoHasAProfile.
I joined a fan server & learned how deep the lore hunting rabbit hole went. Absolutely in love with the idea of it all, even in its bare basic form of just being a supermarket selling cursed things.
I was going to mention this if no one else had! It's such a cool place, I definitely wanna go someday. Real cool thing to be inspired by too.
Normally I'd be envious and while I certainly am I can't think of a better person to be living the dream like this. All your content just makes me smile.
I still can't believe how far this channel has came. I will always remember when this was just a dude in his garage with a laser cutter building an exoskeleton and like 10k subs maybe even less when I subbed. Crazy.
Future interns: Watch out for the boss in the ceiling.
The man in the wall.
Rap tap tap
"Hey kiddo"
Absolutely loved this!! What a transformation from the before and after. Knew it would be unreal Hacksmith fashion, but this was something else! 🔥
Couldn't have done it without Suits and Sawdust! The deck they built us is so amazing!
and eightsleep@@theHacksmith
I've crawled through a lot of those spaces and moving all of that just seemed completely insane to me. Amazing work.
watching you go from your garage batarangs to this has just been amazing man, love the channel love the work and the effort that you and your collogues put forward.
James going full Doctor Who and hiding a stairway inside a cloud is one of the coolest things ever!
This is probably my favorite hacksmith video. and thats saying ALOT ! keep up the great work!!
Aw, thanks! Probably spent the last... 3 months on it!
I know, right?:D
i second this. I really love watching videos of hidden rooms I dont know why
2:44 Leonord Snart from The Flash. Nice💙
Glad to see James so full of joy - Been a while since I watched any videos, but this one feels like a classic.
Love to see James embracing his gremlin heritage by living in the walls of the shop
Sometimes yalls videos always find a way to amaze me and always makes me on why yall do it
James, im so glad your all good now. Continue being happy, and do what u do.
I find it really funny that he included a minifridge, despite the fact that one of the entrances is also a functional fridge lol
Imagine someone buys this building and just casually finds a hidden room..
Or doesn't know somebody is already living in the hidden room.
@@Kanoog reminds me of a certain movie
you mean parasite? @@addax4lf
@@Kanoog "Why are there noises in the wall?????"
_James comes out from under the table_
"Oh hi, you must be the new owners... yeah I'm just packing up"
Nevermind that, what about buying the old place and there's a pod welded to the wall? 😂😂
Hey @theHacksmith - been watching your content for years. I love the secret room. Just out of curiosity, do you happen to have a parts list for your lightning ceiling? What type of material did you use for the clouds?? Also addressable Led strips, were these difficult to wire up, what kind of driver did you use to power them??
I have two young ones who thought this was amazing and I'm considering a build for each of their rooms!
Cotton fluff from the craft store (or Walmart!) -- 3m super77 spray glue to hold it up, and pretty much any smart LED strip has a sound reactive mode that you can turn on to get lightning like effects with the sound of thunderstorms! Super easy to do
Now you need a secret underground tunnel to work. Only issue is... I doubt you'll get a permit for that. UNLESS... you buy a house right next to work so your properties border each other. Just build an underground railway and go for the old aesthetic of an underground mining cart.
I absolutely loved Lenny and I adore that you made a reference to him. "Make the plan, execute plan, expect the plan to go off the rails, throw away the plan"
I was looking for this comment!!!
I didn’t watch all 9 seasons of the flash for nothing!?!?!?
The second I heard him start saying that I just started looking for a flash fan who understood
@@CrazyEWOK same
I didn't just watch all seasons of the flash 10 time for nothing at all fam!!!!!!
2:44 Ah the wise words of Leonard Snart. I was so happy when i heard that
Same bro!!!
I’m so happy others got that
It would be nice to have a product list for everything used in the secret room.
I like that these guys show the inevitable failures as the build progresses.
Those types of fails always happen on prototype/first builds. Showing that in the videos they create is very cool.
2:49 way to go leonard snart!
Lessgoo someone else got the reference🗣️
This video feels less prepared and more chaotic in a Michael Reeves but less crazy way I love it !
Feels like some family, building a "secret" tree house for the kids, but instead of clearing branches you redirect gas and water main !
At 2:44, James literally turned into Leonard Snart 🤣 If you know, you know!
I know, I’ve watched that show so many times
Man as big and crazy as this project this is, it has some serious OG Hacksmith video vibes. love to see it!
This video has the same energy as the old videos gave us. True happiness and passion going into a project. Keep it up, these are the types of videos I keep coming back for... well the lightsabers too.
I absolutely love imaginative use of small spaces. I really hope this does get some use. And please James install a latch to keep the roof hatch open if you're staying out there!
I LOVE the Snart reference at 2:43!
As a man who is building his own man cave currently I found this very inspiring and very creative
This is hands down the coolest thing I have ever seen. My favorite part is the thunderstorm cloud ceiling. I want that in my room so bad.
That's really cool, can't imagine to have access to something like that at work.
Literally the best cave I've ever seen😂 Any man will want to live there.
there are special commercial grade hoists available for theater/rockconcert purposes (used to raise backdrops, lights etc) those are SUPER fast. That would make your elevator perfect
This is the first video in a VERY long time I've truly enjoyed every moment of. I love how you just let one of your crazy ideas become reality. Like a true child's dream everyone can relate to.
it makes me happy seeing James getting better mentally by investing in projects he really cares about and have fun with his best friends
2:44 love the reference lol
loving the leonard snart line at 2:44 its one of my favorites
This is one of the greatest things ever created, period. The elevator is the best part
This is one of your coolest builds yet! especially reaching into the clouds and pulling a doorway to heaven was a SUPER cool idea, props to everyone that helped with this project! probably my favorite build!
Thankyou Leonard Snart for that wonderful breakdown of a plan.
9:50 was the container to absorb impact intentional ? That's awesome !
This is by far my favorite non-super hero related project you guys have done
Both funny and sad that some of the employees are like "this is bigger than my apartment"
You guys need to do something similar to Tech Make overs where you Pimp out someone's apartment with a lot of this cool stuff.
Pimp My Partment
They need to find a sponsor, like how LTT does the Intel/AMD $5000 Extreme Tech Upgrade.
I'm sure there would be an engineering company willing to sponsor a "re-engineer my apartment" series.
@@tbuk8350 ? they are the engineers lol this mattress topper company seems to have money to burn they can sponsor it and hacksmiths brings it to life.
Bro he liked comments both above and below this. His employees look tired during this I doubt he’ll do anything for them
My thoughts exactly. It sure looks cool as hell. But if anything, I hope his employees get a raise and are not made to work during the weekend as the video seems to imply they had to, because it seems quite obvious he can afford as much.
The CW flash reference was awesome at 2:44
I am so happy to see James with a smile and looking well rested. He has made a lot of personal progress and it really does not go unnoticed! ❤
This might legit be one of the coolest things you've ever done. I've wanted to build a "secret" theater room in the gigantic empty space above my garage. Unfortunately I don't think I have the Hacksmith's "budget", or lack thereof 😆
I've lived at work, both with and without permission. I worked at a concert venue with a large comfortable patio area, I lived there for like 6 months. Another place had an unused common basement with the building next door, I built a nice little squat down there.
was waiting for the " now with the money i saved i live in buckingham palace"
James did what every man ever has wanted to do their whole lives. This is peak life.
I’ve always loved these projects
It's amazing to see James actually working in a project and not just making cameos. I hope you're enjoying your job!
LOVE THE LEONARD SNART REFERENCE (“Make the plan. Execute the plan. Expect the plan to go off the rails… Throw away the plan.”)
Logan was the best hype man for the tour. this was a fun watch
I geeked out when he mentioned the four rules about the plan. I love that quote.
Loved the Captain Cold reference.
3:08 had me staring because half the cover of that pocket ref is identical to an MS-DOS pocket ref which looked 30 years out of date when I picked it up in the 90s! The globe might seem 90s, but the gold foil, serif font, and rich dark colour were all sharp contrasts to a world of vapour wave where the future was sans. _And_ living above your workspace was normal. ;) Fun times, the 90s. ... I _so_ wish I could have built something like this in the 90s! Good on you for going ahead and doing it. :D
I've been watching the hacksmith for 5 years (the real arc reactor). I've always loved these videos, and im very jealous that they get to build awesome stuff like this 😆
Just gave a whole new meaning to “I’m inside your walls”.
Masterful.
'Make the Plan, Execute the plan, Expect the plan to go rails..... and throw away the Plan' LMAO Not me watching that exact Flash episode yesterday 😂
Bro Leonard snart what’s the first thing I thought of when he said it 😂
Seeing Quality of life upgrades to the buildings has to be my favorite videos! Looks great and gives tons of inspiration.
He took an internet trend and went maximum overdrive on its tech.
Respect
I liked this kind of video a lot. I hope it does well and we see more experience design projects.
Can't wait for the aerial maps to update, with you chilling on the roof during work!
Might be a good idea to hook up a camera to the hallway and the tv just to make sure you only lower the elevator when the coast is clear
Just fricking awesome. Nice job, dude
Feel the hacksmiths pain back in the 90s I put a hottub on the roof of the building I owned and the first night trying it out I locked myself on the roof. Before cellphone where an edc it got cold!
this build is so beautiful its like my dream secret room. thanks to all the member who build this, this wouldn't happen without them.
i love these kinds of videos. The sleeping pod build and convertion to gaming-pod were my all time favorite video's, but this one really topped them all.
That’s the coolest thing you’ve ever made your own little area of relaxation
This was a really cool idea
The secret room is amazing, great job guys
this is the coolest thing you built in this catagory. way better than the sleeping pod and bat cave. definitely my favourite. btw i liked the leanord snart reference.
This is the type of videos that I love! The non-professional style recording, just two guys hanging out and enjoying the project.
This might be the first washer/ dryer that doesn't allow you to swap the door. Every other one I've seen/ owned already has pre drilled holes to flip it around.
that drop was so scary and funny at the same time. love this video
That cloud celling and entrance to roof was one of my favourites!
Don't cloud ceilings attract spiders?
Well. if James found a large under-hall into the HERC, does that could mean that there’re other secret rooms in the buildings? And if you would use it, what would you guys build in it?
Those rooms are the real secrets.
glad James is doing better and also i want a secret lair now
This is the coolest thing I have ever seen, talk about the ultimate getaway.
