Adam Savage's One Day Builds: Gandalf's Pipe!
Vložit
- čas přidán 29. 11. 2022
- Can you believe it's been over 20 years since the release of the Lord of the Rings trilogy? Adam has collected all of the replica wizard staffs made by Weta Workshop--each a beautiful prop in its own right. For one of Gandalf's staffs in particular, a cast resin pipe slots into the top, and Adam today recreates that prop from scratch out a piece of pine wood board.

Thanks for watching!

I think it is important to repeat, if you plan to make a pipe that you will use, please, please do research. Beyond the fact that the wood from conifers often burns and tastes terrible. Types of both soft and hard woods can be extremely toxic. Always be safe and have fun!
This needs to be pinned.
@@piercewilson1258 On top of that, the glue in the bowl will evaporate when heated, and release all the good chemicals into your lungs.
And to that, we'd also want to be sure that the glues and finishes used are not poisonous either.
also im pretty sure you wouldnt stain the inside of the bowl or mouth piece, lol
Willow was reasonably good pipe wood, I remember. There was a novel method to make the long hole through a twisted branch, when the wood was very fresh. That is how you made flutes and water conduits.
As someone who has made a living as a pipe maker/sculptor for the last 20 years, I really enjoyed watching this video. It doesn't resemble pipe making at all, but it's not supposed to.
Got any tips for real pipe making?
@@analogdriven yea I got a block of maple the other day for the bowl, got a red oak price for the stem, going to use a mortis and tennin to connect the stem and bowl. Use mineral oils and beeswax to finish
@@KingSkrap You carve it from a single block of wood, with the stem straight, and then bend the stem using steam and a jig.
pipe making. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . yeah, i have nothing to do for the next 5 hours, lets dive down this maker hole 🙂
Make a pipe for us viewers. I'd like to see your work!! Iv made some pipes myself and the Gandalf pipe took me time and broke 😢
As a woodworker who has made a couple pipes I will say that you usually wanna make the bowl and the stem separately. To carve out the bowl you wanna use a drill press and a modified spade bit that has a rounded/radiused shape on the cutting end. The easiest way to make the bowl is on a lathe, one piece, no glues around fire…
This man opened me up to science when I was a teenager and still finds a way to entertain me as a man
I think I must brag a bit here: my mother-in-law worked at Vauen and she made the original pipes used in the movies 😁
I don't understand why Adam made two different fake-pipes if he had already had it with staff from New Zealand.
@@user-cm9hh1jx8o you make a fair point, assuming he just wanted it for appearance, lol.
He did it simply because he wanted the pipe to feel made of wood and smell like tobacco, so it would bring it's immersion to the next level.
Brag, my love. What a wonderful heritage.
That's awesome.
@@PleaseNThankYou Mr. Brag of Poland makes good pipes. I have a few. My favorite smoker is his pear root churchwarden. $19.99! Now it's $29.99, alas. lol
Hi Adam. I am a long-time pipe smoker. Yes, you are correct, it is referred to as a Churchwarden pipe. For those who might want a safe and "smokable" churchwarden that looks just like the one Adam made they can be found at any Renaissance Festival. They are made from olive wood usually and smoke quite well.
I doubt anyone watching this channel is Much interested in going to buy one. The diyers would prefer to make one.
Either that or a lot of tobacconists/smoke/cigar shops will have basket pipes for somewhere in the $5-15 range in shorter length mouthpieces, and some pipemaking shops have some rough pipes for not that much more that are matched to churchwarden stems if you look hard enough. Plus the maker types that don't even want to smoke them have access to a whole new maker hobby. Heheh.
@@insederec these are different than a typical church warden, as the stem, shank, and bowl are all carved from the same piece of wood. You won’t find these wizard pipes at the B&M’s, but you can find good safe, smokable ones at the Renaissance festival that would look correct and fit nicely into the staff.
@@pipeman65 well, of course, but honestly for getting the whole vibe of it a two piece pipe is still pretty gandalf I think as I get that comment when I pull mine out.
@@analogdriven I'm pretty sure that's more or less what I was getting at
I remember watching mythbusters as a kid and wanting to be just like adam. then last month i found his yt channel and got to relive it. thank you adam for years of inspiration and fun!
I’m inspired every video, every day and every single different piece of work Adam creates…I share his first name, which make me immensely happy… Law is my surname and Savage Law would be a brilliant company name….LOL😂😂😂
I love it when Adam turned from himself to Bob Ross at the end. Two of the most satisfying things to watch, "combined".
The way Adam moves around his workshop is so stressful, but all too relatable.
Definitely not a man who smokes a pipe!
Also the way he just freehands/holds everything he's cutting/sanding/Dremeling
Me working on my car or wife’s, standing at the tool drawer with sockets in it, reminding myself I should have bought an organizer, same as I said the last ten times
I thought at 11:40 he was going to run his elbow into his sanding belt.
@@ryanmc3073 omg your right
Man, the quick jump from the belt sander to the disc sander on the “actually this tool would be better” thought and having them be 100% available and ready to just flip a switch and go is such a beautiful thing and the absolute dream.
Yep I envy Adam’s plethora of tools quite a bit! 😂
Adam Savage, you are a true treasure of a human being. A simple CZcams comment could never express the amount of value and impact you instil into the world doing something as simple as carving and staining a pipe from a movie that you are truly passionate about. Thank you
Vicariously not super gluing myself to that pipe was wonderful. Thank you, Adam.
"In which Adam makes a pipe-shaped-object, nothing more." 🥰
I cant be the only one that just constantly smiles when this man talks and explains something he is passionate about. From mythbusters to tested, I love this man with all my heart. Thank you Adam for always putting a smile on my face
Adam works at a frantic pace and says things like “slowly and methodically.” 😂😂
The space between nerdom and craftman is beautiful. I can hang out there all day.
Adam is every kid's desire of what a big brother should be. Inventive, cool.
Watching Adams wristwatch gives a great insight in the actual time the work steps took. Great as always.
I'm glad you said that cause "2.5hrs" looked more like 6 or 7, which is disappointing 😞
I love how clever Adam was with the subtitle referencing a famous 1929 painting by René Magritte
As a violin repairer I really appreciate this vid
Use high heat resistant woods! Ones that are as food safe as possible. Briar, Cherry, Olive, Pear, Elder, Maple, White Ash. Like cigars, pipe smoke should not be inhaled. If you want to impart pleasant smells in your pipe, use an aromatic blend of tobacco. I recommend Captain Black as it is cheap and smells quite nice. My dad smokes pipes constantly and he hears me complain when he doesn't smoke aromatic blends. More than a few pipe tobacco brands and blends are named after LOTR references, so you might try those as well. GL out there and please dont smoke your daughters out of the house with non-aromatics!
EDIT: longer pipes are referred to as churchwarden pipes, the clay variants were very long so as to be somewhat communal and hung in pubs, you could pick it up, break off the end and smoke it yourself, then place it back. Or so some stories tell. Originally however, legend has it that at night, the wardens who watched over the church and its grounds (while not in use) were not allowed to smoke inside the church, so a longer pipe was developed which could be set out of the window, while the warden sat inside the church and kept smoking.
EDIT EDIT: Definitely dont stain the inside of the bowl! You can either begin smoking immediately or prepare the bowl with a mixture of activated charcoal and yogurt. Eep eep dont smoke anything with a stained bowl eep eep eep! It is, of course, actually a prop in the video, though so dont fault Adam lol
Granddad's pipe collection has been passed down. Pop uses Borkum Riff tobacco. Bourbon whisky flavor. Nothing beats that smell.
A SKILLED ARTISAN you are
Mr Savage!
I love him so much. Like since I was a kid. He has always made me feel like there was a place for people like me to do science and crafts. Not needing a reason then you want to make something. Truly an inspiration. He gives me hope that one day I could too fallow my dreams and make things
I don't know why but I just love Adam he's just so interesting to watch with so many skills and I feel so wholesome that I watched him growing up as a kid on MythBusters and now I watch him on CZcams doing his own thing.
And he doesn't age. I think he's an alien like Elon Musk.
his book has become my once a month comfort read on audible. him, austin kleon's steal like an artist both have this chill wholesome vibe to them
Fr man watching myth busters with dad
I think the most fantastical thing about the LOTR series was how after all the characters had gone through, they never once had a broken pipe stem.
In the novels, Pip finds not just one, but two spare pipes in his pockets in the Houses of Healing, after the siege.
@@SilentBeutlin "Finds" makes that entire imagine of pip satisfying and hilarious.
Actually Gandalfs pipe started out 3 feet long. You’re looking at a broken pipe stem.
Where did it say that? All I could find in the book was the first mention in The Hobbit and Gandalf had a short clay pipe, not a long church warden pipe
Have you ever watched a British TV show called Time Team ?
One of the most common artifacts they found was a broken clay pipe stem.
Omfg ! I can’t explain it but I get the best therapy watching Adam in his element. And an excuse for my shop to be messy & organized. Im always moving or tweaking shop set up it evolves by the project and never seems to have an idle shape.😊thank you again mr Savage & crew.
Months go by and i dont see one of Adams videos but everytime i do i just smile cause i could watch this guy all day
I thought he would have touched on this little tidbit, but he actually used a pipe cleaner for its original intended purpose, to clean out a smoking pipe (shaped object)! I'm sure we all grew up using these for arts and crafts lol
It actually never occurred to me until I wanted to clean my pipe
Llisten. I'm a preschool teacher. My husband smokes tobacco from a pipe. He asked me about a year ago to get him some pipe cleaners so he could clean out his pipe, and when I tell you I was completely stuck as to what on earth he needed.... I work with pipe cleaners all the time, but the second he put it in the context of actually cleaning a pipe I had no idea where to even begin purchasing them. It didn't occur to me until a week later when I was shopping for school supplies that I looked at them and went, "oh my gosh, this is what he needs. pipe cleaners."
@@alliehawes LOL context holds so much sway over cognitive understanding , it's crazy lol. I get that all the time when I don't have the proper context for something.
I don't need a Gandalf pipe.....but I'm going to make a Gandalf pipe.
That was one heck of a splinter! 🤯
just don't paint it from the inside like Adam did))
@@PaerlBlack it’s okay though, since he’s not going to actually use it as a pipe
@@Jamesfrancosdog Earlier he said that he poped several times to smell the tobaco. And after that he painted it inside)
I think you mean "Pipe shaped object"
@@PaerlBlack He just lit and puffed tobacco only for a moment to impart smell. He wasn’t burning long enough to matter and he didn’t actually inhale any of it.
A Savage pipe 😤 Thank you Adam for all the years of learning and laughter that you and Jamie provided! God bless y'all ✌️
I'd love to see an episode where Adam builds a Pinewood Derby car. A decent fast car takes a bit of ingenuity, craft and skill along with a bit of artistic flare. He has it all and now a challenge!!
Briar is the most common wood used for pipes, it's also my favorite to use for my pipes. Cherry, pear, and olive wood are also fairly common.
I like the flavor cherry gives but it burns a bit faster than brair
@@erichlee3305 yeah it does
After watching this, I never knew gandalf stored his pipe in his staff. Such a brilliant idea
same, next time i watch it im gonna have to look for it
It's the kind of idea one expects from a wizard.
Ah, but where does Gandalf the White store his?
when you don't have pockets in your robe...
That was something they invented for the movie. There is no mention in the books of any such thing.
Adam is the glue holding the whole world together
In terms of making a prop, I think adam completely nailed this. However, if you want to make a working pipe, it isnt a half day job. You need the right wood, do it in one piece, and use the right non toxic stains. It is a slower process with more involved steps BUT still totally doable! He breifly touched upon some aspects of it.
That's one of the questions I've always wanted to ask. "Have you ever accidentally made a real thing?" And kudos to the editor on going from Adam blowing to the belt sanding. Very nice!
That is the cutest little plane I've ever seen. I fell down this rabbit hole a couple weeks ago and I had no idea how many different ways there was to assemble a pipe shaped object. The gluing two halves, burning or boring a hole, heating and curving, stem and bowl as separate or one piece. I think my favorite was finding an appropriately curved branch twig and burning out the pith with the stem inserted into a bowl. It creates a different look and experience for sure but to each wizard their own pso.
I've made a number of real pipes from various woods.
The really tricky part is lineups in the bottom of the bowl and the neck.
You don't want to go below the neckline or you'll have unburnt tobacco below the bottom.
The stem was pretty easy, just use a natural hallow wood and drill through the pith.
Heat treat the bowl well and use refined hemp oil to keep from scorching.
And keep it very clean. Every pipe has a break in point and will season to taste.
Im just finding out that he has a youtube channel. Adam, you are one of my heros who sparked my interest in science and building things.
Adam, I loved this build. I had a blown glass version of Gandalf’s pipe a friend made me. Just remember it’s a representation of a “hand carved” pipe, perfection is not what you’re aiming for, functionality (in that kids voice 🤪) is the point, with your P.S.O…🤣. Having used a true wooden pipe, the short time of having burning tobacco is exactly right. The smell is damn near permanent lol. Always reminds me of my grandfather.
Watching Adam do something he loves is always an amazing time but also shout out to the editor(s). That transition from blowing the pipe to sanding was perfect.
This is one of the most approachable one day builds. Adam used some expensive tools, but this could be made with only cheap hand tools too.
yeah! those tools are just for quality of life really in this build
A long weekend, a stick and a sharp knife would do it.
All you really need for this is some sandpaper, a knife, and a saw. So yeah pretty easy
You are Adam Savage for a reason. You are a Savage Worker/Inventor/Creator! I appreciate your dedication to “True Hands On Work”
I love those little brass planes. I got a set of them for Christmas a few years ago and they are so useful!
Adam, thanks for existing and bringing your energy to this world.
A kid asking you if your space suit is functional is the best thing I have ever heard 😊
I've been a pipe smoker for 10 years, fun fact, before wood became the default material for pipes they were made of clay, they were bought with the bowl ready filled with tobacco and often just discarded once empty, they really were that cheap, this is why in almost every British river you can find pieces of clay pipe stems
Taverns would supply the pipes and at the end of the night they would be baked in the fire to clean them.
Actually, before wood, particularly briar, the material to go to was meershaum, or sepiolite. It's still around today, but not as commonly as it was.
12:01. That's the cutest little brass plane that I've ever seen, and watching Adam use a nail buffer for sanding just made my heart sing 😊
Love a cheeky Magritte reference, love a sensible chuckle to start my day, love this channel.
Hey Adam, love this build, try using Jojoba oil on your next wood project, it has a similar structure to human hand oils and can gives objects a really beautiful "handheld" patina. It also hardens into a hard durable coat after a few weeks. Great stuff!
Jojoba is used for beard oil as well, if I remember correctly.
@@marker20 yes! It’s a great moisturizer as well. Kind of a crazy natural product most people have never heard of.
It's also in solution with tea tree oil as a "shed aid" for reptiles to remove retained scales.
@@Tandemdesigns i know it from the pink panther movies
Be interesting to see Adam's approach to making a "real" pipe one day. As someone who does it for a living I always like to see how people new to a craft approach things. I nearly always learn something that improves my own technique.
I love watching all your videos, not just for the doses of wisdom and knowledge, but also for the process. I grew up watching Mythbusters, and honestly learned more about science, mechanical/electrical engineering, material science, physics and chemistry from the show than my school.
Seriously though it’s Adam just a genuine genius…
"Is any of this functional?!"
Yes, wise words to apply to every project! 😂
I think the scene in the Hobbit Battle of the Five Armies, when Gandalf is cleaning his pipe in silence with bilbo is great. I think Adam should complete the pipe with that pipe cleaning spoon. That would be awesome.
That’s what the nail in the staff is for :)
You have a beautiful and inspiring mind, Mr. Savage. I grew up watching you on TV and continue to enjoy your content to this day.
I love the sound of inserting pipe into staff so much.
I'll tell you one thing. This guy, this guy right here, he really knows how to make stuff
As the Lord of the rings fan, I love little unique and quincentennial props like this, especially when I decorate my apartment with items like these that only a true fan would know what the object is ! this is one of the ones that I will be building!
LOTR was directly responsible for a huge increase in Churchwarden pipe manufacturing and pipe smoking. Crazy how influencial it is
sometimes i watch adams videos without sound and just look at how excited he gets
He does things the way I want to do things, so it makes me feel better about the things I haven't done yet
Man I used to watch Myth Busters from elementary all the way through highschool and was sad hearing the show got canceled but now that Ive found your channel Adam I've never been so happy, good to see you're doing well and I hope Jamey is doing good as well. I'm gonna binge watch you now like I did Myth Busters :D
I love the distinction between a pipe and a "pipe shaped object" vis-à-vis a gun vs. a "gun shaped object". As someone who is very into Dungeons & Dragons, I have argued that fluid-filled and custom dice made of hand-poured resin are more realistically "die shaped objects" than dice, since there is no way to ensure any type of balance in such a thing. Fun, approachable build. Thanks!
I have been begging my fellow dice goblins to avoid using custom dice in our games. Official dice from reputable companies only. There's no telling what you get from these DIY etsy shops. I appreciate the glowing or fluid-filled Dice Shaped Objects. They're amazingly fun to look at. But do not taint the numbers!
@@FUBARguy107 Ooh...I sense a fight coming on. Let's begin!
@@FUBARguy107 don't put too much value in "official dice from reputable companies" unless you are talking casino d6's. Anything with a rounded edge gets that from a tumbler and they can have voids in them. It's really not a big deal unless the die is obviously, visibly biased. The number of meaningful rolls a gamer makes in a career is too few for anything but a really gross bias to matter; doubly so if they are "dice goblins" and swap dice out semi-frequently.
@@dahobdahob "reputable companies" likely refers to companies that either for every die or for selections from each batch are verified to be balanced. It is the same balance check that casino d6s go through
@@FUBARguy107 so, fluid filled seems like a no-go IMO. But for resin/plastic dice you can do a salt solution float test. You make a salt solution that gets the dice to float, then you can tap the dice to get them to tumble, any inconsistency in the balance will be much more recognizable this way. (Great way to validate the cheap plastic dice that you can find everywhere)
The asmr is great here for me. The sound of that pipe being taken in and out of the staff is very satisfying. Also the "pup pup pup" noise when pretending to smoke it is also quite a pleasant sound. Sorry for going off on a tangent. To me that's one of the signs of an authentic prop. Such genius!
I love this. This is my favorite video of yours of all time 💜

Don't paint it from the inside)) Some one will smoke paint )
@@PaerlBlackIt's not meant to be used. Its just supposed to feel authentic . You should make one for yourself if you're a smoker. Im gonna try
Yes but does it keel-I mean!- smoke? 😉
Will you please make a functional one next. I was so excited for this at first.
@@nak3dxsnake 🤦
Oddly enough as simple as this may appear, it is a thing of beauty.
This is now my second favorite once day build. The first being the watering can. Anyway great work once again highly informative and very entertaining.
Now off to buy me a violin planer.
This seems like a good object to blow bubbles with!
This is what blending the line between artist and engineer looks like... and I love it!
Love the pipe-like obiect. Very nicely done. Band saws are awesome!
My best friend used to walk around with a wooden staff because of his love of Gandalf, which earned him the nickname Gandalf from my father. I carved him a Gandalf inspired "pipe shaped object" using simple pine for the bowl and the naturally hollow branch of a local bush species. He used to display it on his desk at home (I also made a display base from walnut), but he moved elsewhere, so I don't know what he's done with it since.
This comment made me smile. It's a wonderful story of doing something nice for your friend. I hope you stay connected even though he moved away.
As a long time mythbuster fan and LOTR fan i needed to see this build. I get flashbacks to the show's hayday when I hear you laugh with excitement when something works!
That's a sweet PSO you got there, Adam!
As always Adam makes the daunting task so approachable for people who wish to become their own prop maker. 🐘💨❤️
I love it when you use tools that I have bought at your recommendation, and I subsequently came to love them through my own experience. It's not 100%, but you do better than most!
Watching all of Adam's videos still gives me the "Myth Busters" experience. Even after all of these years. I remember Episode 1 Season 1 MB the day it aired.
I love your use of a hold fast!
Thanks Adam. I recommend mixing your brown paint with yellow instead of white to keep the rich tones.
Can I just say how much I love the editing on these videos. I can only imagine how much material you have to use and you make the viewing experience perfect to my mind. Thank you
Thank you for sharing the story at the beginning
Lord! The smoking euphemisms in this vid! Love ya Adam :)
Love these one day builds.
Really inspires you to make something.
I love makin my own pipes. They're a really good way to get a feel for different woods and materials. I've done a few different hardwoods, some softwoods, one out of carbon fiber, one out of bullet casings... Gonna try bone/antler next. 👌
damn, bone pipe would be dope af. I never knew I needed one until now
You might love the look of antler but I understand the burn and taste is quite nasty. But, antler could make some handsome pipe tools/stands. Try Crab Apple if you haven't yet. It smokes well and often found growing wild alongside intentionally planted ornamentals as it's a prolific spreader. If you can only find young ones, consider the root ball for the bowl. It also makes a fine walking staff, tool handles, mallet heads and even practice katanas.
@@Steakfrie I would have a metal instert in the bowl, drilling into a piece of antler exactly once taught me all about the wonderful joys of antler fumes lmao. Like burning hair but somehow several times worse.
@@Steakfrie yeah I know, as guy in comments said, I'd have something to prevent direct contact of heat and bone, i can imagine it tastes nasty
The Salted Pork line was the cherry on top of an exceptional build video!
That little cut/zoom of "I didn't inhale" caught me off-guard. Cackling. I love this man so much.
Wow, you are so detailed. You share absolutely everything I feel like I need to know to try to attempt something like this. Thank you.
I have absolutely contemplated doing this. I bought a pipe that is the right shape and size but wrong finish and have been pondering refinishing it, but the idea of having a pipe I made is even better. Since I don't have a good way to steam the stem (that was fun to say), this has solved my problem. Thank You!
Please make sure to research and make sure you use safe wood and adhesive for the purposes you desire.
really entertaining to watch you build staff! thanks for the video!
I did not know there was a little compartment for the pipe in the staff. What a genius design
You whittled that pipe out fast lol….Came out looking super cool👌 Nice job Adam👍
The two halves construction method is an extremely old one, for smoking pipes the wood is split in half so the grain patterns matches up when you tie the two halves together. I've made several quick and easy chillums from small green willow branches using this method when I forget or break my piece while hiking.
Always carry a tool to make stuff with. Salt river 2010 my best friend's gf dropped my pipe within the first 5 minutes on the river.
You vape, we get it
What do you use to join the two halves back together? I imagine CA glue isn't safe to smoke through
@@andromedahavice9478 the ones I smoke through I just tie the halves together using a thin cord and a whipping knot like you'd use to keep a rope from fraying. Because the grain matches up nicely it forms a really tight seal without any adhesive, you can even make water jugs using the same method.
I just love your workshop. You have everything in there
I have never seen an itty bitty planer like that. I must have one.
That looks great. I'd love to see the steaming and bending method one day. You could also do a build video of a steaming apparatus.
I think the actual pipes used in LOTR were clay, at least according to half remembered details form the appendices. However, this is amazing to watch, love the shaping that’s possible with sanding tools and planes.
There are many legit manufacturers of LOTR inspired pipes. VAUEN is a main one
ABSOLUTELY LOVE THE HOBBIT AND LORD OF THE RINGS SEGMENTS YOU DO! Grew up watching your show. God bless
Adam is always fun, instructive, entertaining, nice and interesting.
Missed the one day builds lately! Thanks for bringing us another one
If you want to make a pipe, the recommended wood is briar, it's perfect for functioning pipes. There are loads of suppliers in Europe (Greece specifically idk why) that sell it pretty cheap, I'm not sure about anywhere outside of Europe though
Wow I knew this guy hit a pipe every now and then. Nice pipe
Loved that 2:44 René Magritte reference.
