The Martian Spacesuit Replica

So I discovered the Tested channel and Adam being on YouTube roughly after I saw “The Martian” in theaters and Adam was going to replicate it.

I’m just wondering after all these years - what ever happened to that suit project?

He’s made so many other suits and replicas and cosplays over the years and that one is just…well it’s not had an update video or any word on it further since he started on it.

Collection of models Adam made while in the industry?

Hey all! Wondering if there is any photos or maybe even a collection of work done by Adam when he was in the industry? I know he has a few videos showing off his models he made at ILM but I was hoping for a way to browse and study them!

Also looking for other similar big makers/artists that were in the industry! Hoping to create a course for myself to study their work and make my own iterations as a means to learn.

Adam’s Father’s Screwdriver

Does anyone have images of his original screwdriver that was stolen? He mentions it had distinguishing striping and marks, just looking for reference photos for a project.

I already have the correct version, no need to link or mention. I appreciate any help.

Lightsaber history video?

I'm looking for possibly an old Adam Savage video, one where he details what the original lightsabers were made out of? I know it's the Graflex camera and stuff, but I can't find this video and swear it existed at one point. There is a Tested video about it but I'm looking for an in depth one with Adam?

Help identify Adam’s hoodie!

Was just watching Adam’s YouTube video about his Indiana Jones diary and noticed he’s wearing a cool looking hoodie, but can’t figure out what brand it is! Hoping someone knows this!

Help looking for an Adam quote

I’ve been ctrl+f searching through Tested video transcripts for a quote from Adam. The quote is something to the effect of “I know someday in the future, this will be in my past.”

Basically he’s saying that during troubling or overwhelming times, he’s comforted by the fact that one day his future self is looking back on a situation. Pretty obvious “life goes on, it’s not the end of the world” type statement I know but, as it often does, the signature Adam Savage eloquence really resonated with me (and still does) during a tough time.

I can’t remember whether it’s from an Ask Adam Savage video or if its buried within a much longer build video. I believe he mentioned it while talking about escaping from a sinking car on MythBusters but I don’t know for sure. Almost certain it’s anywhere from the years 2020-2022.

Sorry for my vague memory, but if anyone remembers the quote or video or would like to help, it would be greatly appreciated!!

Camera mount noises

Hey all,

I've heard that many a people have issues with the noises the camera mount makes in the tested yt videos.

What I found that helps me with such small but persistent annoyances is to have my own little inside jokes about them.

So now, when Adam adjusts his camera, I can't help but imagine the sound being the neck of a cartoon viewer sitting in his cave being adjusted to watch closely...

Shot in the dark

Hey, I’m a big fan of Adam savage and his videos. I’ve recently had a need for a book he recommends in on of his videos however I cannot remember the name of it, nor can I remember/find the video. The only thing I can remember is that It was a book that was an encyclopedia of sorts for stuff that prop maker might could use.

Idle late-night mussings

I think, it'd be pretty freakin' awesome if Adam and Alton Brown collaborated on something. I think both are excellent thinkers and have similar affability on camera.
It seems to me that both of their titual shows could have interesting overlap. Thoughts?
