How you going?

Hammers are great.

There isn't a single job they can't do.

But unlike all the other tools out there that receive a new update every year, hammers remain the same.

Except that really expensive one which is named after women's clothing in order to trick men into buying it.

Which makes me really angry and horny.

so today I'm going to finally give the hammer the upgrade it needs

and make a fully automatic power hammer that anybody can use even if you have no arms

so one man already tried making a better hammer

so his design is going to be my starting place

and I've got these hem uh ster.. solenoids which kind of look like what

Homer was using then I just cut the head off the hammer

and this ain't gonna work it's somehow violent

and weak at the same time I would need a hammer

and solenoid on steroids for this to work so instead of following

Homer's design I'm gonna base it off this thing a palm driver

which is essentially the already finished a better product of what I'm making

which drives a nail in using a giant air compressor

and I don't actually know how it works

so I opened it up for answers

and I was expecting to see a tiny little man with a hammer

but there is just a bunch of holes which doesn't help me.

So in order to make this look like a hammer

I'm gonna have to figure out how to make this way smaller and portable.

And lucky for me there is a place that really does have a bunch of little men with hammers, China.

And I ordered this tank and a bunch of regulators for pretty cheap.

But I have no idea how I'm gonna make it small

and compact or if the small tank will even have enough air to do anything.

So I'm just gonna start with this piece of scaffolding I stole from a construction site.

And I'm just gonna cut off a flat section for the palm driver to sit against

and I don't have a plan I'm kind of hoping it just reveals itself along the way

and that everything somehow fits in this one pipe

and I'm actually making this hammer as a gift for a man that's older than me

that has been messaging me on the internet for years his name is Jonesy makes and me

and a bunch of other youtubers are all making gifts for

each other in the tool room takeover in an attempt to trick

you guys into thinking we are all actually friends

and to get more views which sounds like a great idea

and at the end of this video I'm gonna get a gift from Eric Kay

and every other youtuber on the list is actually pretty good at making stuff

and I think they only invited me to make themselves look better

which is why I'm determined to use the milling machine

and digital readout as much as possible to kind of make it look like I know what I'm doing.

And I don't know much about Jonesy but I know he is a machinist

and if you know anything about machinists they love woodworking

and hammers but most importantly I don't think he has arms as he really likes feet pics

so this should be the perfect gift

and I reckon the hammer will look really cool

if I add a trigger and also the UK's gun laws are really strict

so hopefully Jonesy gets arrested for importing a gun

so I'm going to use this air compressed blower thing

and mill a slot for it right here and I found

when milling it's very important to ignore any sound the milling machine is making as it's just trying to slow

you down and you just keep driving it into the material as hard as you can.

Now I need a slot for the regulator

which turns the 3000 psi air into air pressure

that will only slightly kill you

and I didn't measure it I just cut it out hoping it would fit

and it looks a little thin on the side

but it should be fine

and then to flex on jonesy I'm using my arms here to support the material

while it cuts and the regulator doesn't fit

so I'm going to grind it down

and then I also removed this useless pressure relief bolt

and burst disc and its purpose is to release pressure

if it gets too high stopping it from blowing up and killing you but since it isn't for me I'm removing it.

So I ground it off

and then glued in a random bolt to act as shrapnel before realizing

I glued up the side I need to use to connect the hammer.

Luckily I have another regulator.

Then I skillfully cut into the thin material to create a hole for the air outlet I do need.

all right now to hold the palm driver to the pipe I reckon I need something like this

which will also give me the hammer aesthetic

and luckily I have some thick metal lying around for the hammer except I have a problem it's lying around

and it's very thick this single chunk here weighs over 100 kilos

or 200 pounds so I need to cut it down first before I cut it down

that was definitely better than using grinder like I usually do

but now I have a permanent outline of the metal on my driveway.

So now I'm using

Adobe Illustrator to mock up a design and this is what I came up with.

On the top we have the nail prying thing

which did you know hammers didn't originally have

and people had to use their teeth on a tooth wrench to get the nails out.

Then we got this thing that should hold it in place

and then these holes do absolutely nothing

and then using the I test cut this piece which came out amazing considering it's my first test piece.

And Wazer claims the machine can cut 12 mil thick steel, which I kind of don't believe,

as the water in the machine is only 1 mil thick, so I don't know how it's possible.

So let's see.

Yes.

I'm scared.

And this may look like I've been using ground coffee as the cutting material, and that's because I have,

which means you also get a nice cup of joe once you finish the cut.

and this piece looks pretty great

and after cleaning it up I just randomly guessed where the middle was

and then drilled and tapped the holes

so this thing I made doesn't really hold the palm driver at all

so I'm gonna make something that applies pressure

and also hides the ugly air quick connect thing

100

so I just heated up a piece of aluminium

101

and bent it over this pipe which definitely isn't a homemade cannon

102

and it's starting to look pretty good but I haven't made any mistakes so far.

103

So I decided to snap a milling bit while making the air hose hole.

104

Then I just gave it a paint job and a test fit.

105

And annoyingly I designed this in the same way as one of those ships in a bottle.

106

You have to perfectly put everything in the right way and then kind of assemble it inside.

107

But because I'm using press fit air connections you can't actually get it back out.

108

So just to make sure it never comes out I decided to use some JB welds on the side bolt holes, which I've never used before,

109

to just seal it up.

110

So have fun fixing this Jonesy.

111

Then I attempted to get a nice sand finish on the

112

aluminium by making my own sand blaster out of this air compressor blower thing, and then just using some garnet from the Wazer in a bottle,

113

which worked really well if my intention was to exfoliate my entire face.

114

So I just gave up and hand sanded it.

115

So now it's time to see if this works at all, But first, I need to work out the air tank.

116

And when I open it up, you'll notice it's very dark in here.

117

And also, there's nothing inside.

118

And that's because air is invisible, which makes pumping it up really hard to do.

119

And unfortunately, you can't pump these up with a normal compressor.

120

You need a special high -powered liquid cooled one that is very expensive, loud, keeps trying to run away from you, and needs a water supply.

121

But I did find an easier way to run it.

122

All you do, Jonesy, is just plug it in here

123

and then just make sure you let out a steady stream

124

and then it keeps the machine at exactly 36 .5 degrees and gets to 3000 psi in no time.

125

And there was a budget for this collaboration of $200, which I haven't gone over if you don't include the things I've had to buy.

126

And I'm just sending a high -powered compressor to Jonesy unrelated to this collaboration,

127

but as a thank you for all the great memories we've had over the years.

128

So let's see if it works.

129

But first, the sponsor.

150

All right back to testing the hammer Whoa!

151

That is so much louder than I thought. Is this gonna work?

152

First test, nailing in a screw.

153

What just happened?

154

It does nail beans pretty good, but when I try to drive the screw in, it gave up.

155

I think there just isn't enough air volume coming out of

156

that regulator to push the diaphragm thing inside the palm driver into place.

157

So I attached the normal air compressor to push it into place and discovered I had accidentally made a gun.

158

Oh my god that could have shot my eye out.

159

And to the New South Wales police that are watching this was an accident.

160

I didn't design it to do that and also

161

that homeless man ran himself over with my car and I'll never do it again but it still doesn't work.

162

So I think I need to make another little tank inside the handle

163

that can store air and then deliver it to the hammerhead.

164

So at first I tried to make one out of PVC while having an orgasm.

165

which didn't work too well so I made a metal one out of some pipes and washers

166

and I did miss a little bit

167

and kind of welded it to my drill press

168

but the tank looks pretty good and despite everything all of you say about my welds, it does hold air.

169

I can't actually hit any leaks.

170

And it works much better.

171

But just to be safe,

172

I took inspiration from my hero Stockton Rush and covered my pressure vessel in epoxy and then put it inside the handle.

173

Now it looks good but it doesn't look like a hammer yet.

174

I need to make the nail prying thing on the back

175

but I don't trust myself to cut an even centered slot

176

which is why you'll notice I'm in a garage much messier than mine.

177

I'm at Rowan's to use his homemade fanciest bandsaw in the world

178

which he made with pneumatic controlled pin and rack and something

179

and I don't know how it works

180

but it does cut a very straight cut

181

and coincidentally it somehow tuned the pry bar to exactly the same frequency

182

that I used to train Alexa to pee on command.

183

But I was never able to upload that video.

184

Then using the nemesis of the hammer I just forced it open

185

and that is good enough for me and after putting on the finishing touches it looks pretty cool.

186

Almost cool enough to trick Jonesy makes into thinking I'm good at making stuff.

187

But does it finally work

188

and even though the tank is an off -the -shelf part

189

I'm still very scared of the regulator I modified blowing up and shooting the bolt into me

190

nice I guess and that works really really well

191

if I get it just right I can drive a nail into the wood in like a fifth of a second. That was quick.

192

But to put it through a proper test, I'm going to go up against the best carpenter I know, Alexa Vulovic.

193

This is what the professionals do.

194

You have to eat the nails.

195

Mmm.

196

Mmm.

197

Yum.

198

Ready, set, go.

199

Fuck!

200

Why is it working?

201

Hey, looks like I'm the carpenter.

202

And that didn't work at all.

203

So there are two things I need to fix to make this work better.

204

First, I just fixed the regulator, as for some reason it started restricting the airflow

205

and by fixing it I mean I screwed the bottle in properly

206

then I also burnt Alexa's hands to slow him down so now we are good for round two

207

what is that fuck I can't see how much the nail head is in

208

so I stopped what I thought it was it.

209

And Alexa did beat me if I have to put the nails in the hammer

210

so we're gonna try again with the nails already in the wood.

211

As everyone knows most job sites usually pre -place the nails.

212

Three, two, three, two, one, go.

213

That was great because I won but now we're gonna do something harder.

214

An upside down nail in a tight space.

215

Just don't tell anyone it's me.

216

Oh yeah, everyone watching, don't tell everyone that he just did that.

217

Okay, ready, set, go.

218

This is actually a problem.

219

I did not move those things in one bit.

220

Okay, so it's...

221

Well, it's a pretty good use case.

222

All you need is a filleting knife.

223

And now for the final test, our feet.

224

Oh, is this kind of.. is this impossible?

225

Ah!

226

Wait, how is it an instant grab?

227

Who designed this?

228

Let's think we haven't given enough jobs to each other.

229

Alright, you ready?

230

Yep.

231

Oh, I think I'm doing it.

232

Okay.

233

Three, two, one.

234

Done.

235

And I'm slightly suspicious of why Alexa has so much gripping force and coordination with his feet, but I still won.

236

Which means it's ready to send off to Jonesy makes.

237

Jonesy, just make sure you don't overfill it, as there's no pressure relief valve and it'll blow up.

238

Also, don't put your finger in front of the hammer, or you put a hole in your finger.

239

Also, sometimes the bottle does this weird thing where it randomly unscrews

240

and lets 3000 PSI out and shoots into your wall

241

so I securely and nicely packaged it up making sure it won't get confiscated by customs

242

and sent it off which I'm kind of sad about as I actually really like it

243

but lucky for me I am also getting a gift from Eric with a K the creator of this YouTube collaboration

244

whoa it's beautiful did you kill a real magpie That is fucking sick.

245

Second sequence.

246

There you go.

247

That's really freaky.

248

I don't like that.

249

What the fuck?

250

The last one is the funniest.

251

It's a communist song, I'm guessing.

252

You could say that.

253

Look at his eyes are glowing red yeah i like saying he's going to lose his mind when he sees this

254

it's like lovely but terrifying and freaky and there you go that's definitely the best communist singing wing articulated magpie i have

255

So, go check out

256

Eric's video to see how he stuffed servo motors inside a dead magpie, and also watch Jonesy's video to see his reaction to my gift.

¿Qué es la Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing es una técnica de aprendizaje de idiomas respaldada por la ciencia, desarrollada originalmente para la formación de intérpretes profesionales y popularizada por el políglota Dr. Alexander Arguelles. El método es simple pero poderoso: escuchas audio en inglés nativo y lo repites en voz alta de inmediato, como una sombra que sigue al hablante con solo 1-2 segundos de retraso. A diferencia de la escucha pasiva o los ejercicios de gramática, el shadowing obliga a tu cerebro y músculos de la boca a procesar y reproducir simultáneamente patrones de habla reales. Las investigaciones muestran que mejora significativamente la precisión de la pronunciación, la entonación, el ritmo, el habla conectada, la comprensión auditiva y la fluidez al hablar, convirtiéndola en una de las metodologías más efectivas para la preparación del IELTS Speaking y la comunicación en inglés en el mundo real.
