Heads up: The uncured resin in a lot of these types of 3D printers is caustic. Definitely cure it before you handle it without gloves.

Your "brute force drawing" is an excellent method for learning to draw for real. There are actually teachers out there who recommend it, and there's a tool called a proportional divider that allows you to do just that, but on a different (fixed) scale. This is all to say, that's exactly the way you SHOULD have approached making a fairly faithful recreation, from an artistic perspective.

Something interesting is that until just over 100 years ago, the gems were not a permanent part of the crown. Whenever the crown was needed for a coronation, a set of gems were acquired, set on the crown, and then after used they were removed to be used elsewhere. Edit: link to wikipedia section discussing this: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/St_Edward%27s_Crown#20th_century_to_present_day (also if you scroll up there is an engraving of how it was set with gems in the 17th century which looks very different from how it looks today)

I love the irony that in 2021 Adam is using aluminum and finishing techniques as an inexpensive way to re-create the gold that the real St. Edwards Crown uses to indicate wealth yet in 1661, using aluminum to make a crown would have been an even more impossible display of wealth.

Considering aluminium wasn't isolated until 1825, it wasn't really a matter of wealth, it was a matter of needing a time machine. Once industrial refinement got going (in the late 1850s), its price dropped below gold pretty quickly.

@@nodwick4231 - No, it wouldn't have been "possible but costly", because _no one knew it existed._ Native aluminium has only been found in trace amounts in very obscure locations (ex., in a volcano, in deep-drill cores under the sea), and no one knows how it was formed (the most popular theory seems to be it was "refined" by microbes). Even in those places, it's usually just tiny specks of aluminium, encased in different metals. Even if they had come across any (which is unlikely), no one in 1661 would have been able to identify it as a separate metal, let alone know how to produce or obtain enough to make a crown. I suggest reading "Characteristics and possible origin of native aluminum" (by Zhong Chen, et al.) and "Native aluminum: does it exist?" (by Vesselin Dekov, et al.). And if you do know anything about aluminium being formed by striking bauxite with lightning, I suggest publishing it.

The crown is more symbol than wealth imo. It's 5 pounds of gold and jewels most of which are easily obtainable. It can be easily duplicated by most of the top 1% or probably top 20%. Food for thought. Also the monarchy the crown represents technically has no formal power now. The royals are justified these days because they generate an economy. In my opinion probably the real symbol of power.

For most people, it is a terrible idea. Adam is a special case in that regard. Skin changes over time, so it would never be accurate. Fortunately, Adam's use case isn't about accuracy, it's about a rough estimate. He doesn't need the accuracy because he has years of experience to go off of. He just needs a quick sense of size. He also got it quite late in life, if he had gotten it when he was younger it would be worthless, probably not even good for estimates.

And I’ll be honest… At first, I absolutely hated it!! But after a while of watching this video and seeing him use his tattoo to help with his builds, it’s absolutely perfect for him!! And I completely understand why he chose to get a tattoo like this.. Even though I would never ever ever get a tattoo like this myself, or like it on anyone else. For Adam (or people who do similar work/hobbies as he does) it’s an absolutely amazing idea, as he will be constantly measuring things for his build wont he? And I’m sure that he can never find a ruler if/when he needs one. So to have a ruler on your arm/skin, it’s perfect!!☺️

Hey Adam, there is this stuff called solder paste that you can use to do what you were doing with the jewels. You can also, if all of the material can take a little heat, stick everything together with the solder paste and dots of super glue and then place all of it in a toaster oven. You then can heat the parts on one side or both until the soldier paste melts. The superglue lets go about the same temp as the soldier paste taking hold. The taoster oven can never be used for food again after this, but they can be useful for tempering small steel parts or annealing copper alloys.

The talk about the time one spends on something made for someone being the gift was so beautifully said. I’m not at all religious but I’ve always been in awe of the art that has come out of religion and that was a perfect way to explain why. Actually, that whole talk while the filigree was being colored was a really nice meditation on devotion and the weirdness that is existence. I definitely didn’t come to this video for that, but I’m sure glad I got it!

A thought on Adam's paint overspray challenge from one of the recent videos -- consider building a box that has one side open sized so you can fit a couple of Filtrete filters in it. Out the other side add a connector you can attach this to your dust system. When you paint, attach this to your dust system, aim it where you're painting and turn it on. it'll suck in most of the overspray and lodge it into the filtrete's and eject the rest of the air out of the shop... Without needing a permit for a formal spray hood area.

Hey Adam. I am on artist Working on the Simpsons in the Background Dept. It is funny to hear you say of the method that you used to draw the Fleur De Lis, "this isn't drawn using any natural ability I have to draw", and then go on to describe the way that you measured and compared to recreate an image that you wanted. That is what artist are doing when they hold out their thumb or paintbrush to the model. They are measuring and comparing. Many times they will also transfer a grid to the underdrawing of their work and paint over it so that it is never seen, not to conceal it but just as part of the process. You sir are an artist in the purest tradition. Plus, you came up with the time honored method handed down from the masters on your own, so, bonus points!

Thank you Adam for putting up stuff like this during this past year. I get that you like to listen to music and, bcos copyright, you have to employ timelapse or cut a video to shreds, but even with it this video is of a decent length. I realise the meta for youtube is about 10-20 minutes, because people these days have a shorter attention span than a goldfish, but I enjoy the longer videos like this, even if there is a lot of timelapse. More like this please. PS I feel I've missed a livestream recently, has Adam done a live stream since March 9th? Wanting to see that Ecto-1 get built!!

I think solder paste might have been a better material to use for the brazing / soldering than the wire. Mostly because it'll also help hold the parts in place and make things a little less fiddly.

I'm a Brit. Adam, your simulation (not the best word, but hey) of the crown is much more tasteful and appealing than the horrible thing kept under guard. On another subject, I'd love to see "Adam Savage meets Colin Furze and together they build something truly alarming!". You never know, it could happen.

The pearls that dangle from the cage are supppsedly the last remnants of Queen Elizabeth the Great's jewels. This was so much fun to watch as both a Tested fan and an anglophile!

Awesome video. I lost it when Adam talked about upgrading your crown, just had a vision of him adding a subwoofer and blue under lighting. :)

1:46:31 Well spent! This came out amazing!

The thing I like about Adam is that in an age where EVERYONE is VERY territorial about their techniques and methods, Adam shares practically EVERY tip and trick that he knows because to him, good technique and good results supersede the ego of the creator. I’m sure he doesn’t share ALL his secrets but he always makes sure to cover every contingency, possible misstep, and error in judgment, again in the interest of a superior result. Even when things go wrong, he dissects the error to find out WHERE he went wrong to learn from his mistake. It’s like messing around in the garage with your best friend on a Saturday afternoon. I wish the rest of the world had Adam’s enthusiasm and willingness to share. Thank you, Mr. Savage!

The best part about this build is seeing Adam play with it at the end

Simply buying a present can be quite bland if the item can be easily bought from the receiver, and growing up with little to no money, i've learnt that making gifts can be cost effective and holds more value. My recent gift was a bowl of 1000 hand craft cranes. its sounds simple but 1000 cranes is nothing to scoff at when you're doing it alone. Another was a small 5x7inch artwork i've done. I truly believe hand craft items hold much more value as gifts

We need an "Alexa!" warning lol. My whole place goes off every time.

The part were you talked about the english empire stealing for the longest made me chuckle. I point that out to people sometimes (and the killing) and always get head tilt looks like....oh ya 😂

So stoked to see Adam work 3d design and printing into his quiver of tools!

I'm a machinist, and I watched this yesterday, and I saw the part about filing, and I thought "you know, that's right, you can accomplish a lot with just a file, I forgot about that" Then today someone came to me with an urgent job that would have been a kind of difficult set up, but was an easy file job, and I totally thought about doing it with a file because of this video! It only took about 10 minutes and I hit the dimensions well within tolerance. Thanks Adam!

I was thinking those things if you added a lower arm to it would make a nifty throwing star for the new super Villain of the month "the iron King!"

hey what’s happened to the raptor build videos :( also great build!!! ✨✨

I also did ask a few times yet. It's not that I want to sound like an entitled prick,...Adam doesn't owe us anything,...but (I'm sure) most of us were exited about the project. It just seems immature, unfair and indifferent to the fans, not to clarify what happened.

@@mementomori4972 in fairness if it is some sort of copyright/legal mess (which again I don't know for sure but suspect) making public statements about ongoing legal matters are rarely in your best interest.

It makes you wonder back in the age when the real thing was produced, the amount of labour and skill to create it is outstanding

I find Adam's riveting very riveting.

i keep hearing the 3d printer in the back looking forward to see the video on that xD

I love you, Adam Savage!! You tickle me so much with the glee that you get out of solving each step of the build!!

What a great watch, it's fascinating to see the processes and techniques used for both crown builds. I'm in the midst of replicating a royal outfit myself, mines from a movie and mostly a sewing project though. They do really seem to like all the sashes, gold trim, medals, ornate buckles and buttons they can get their hands on. I've enjoyed the process of researching and looking at lots of reference images for my project. The way Adam described the way you engage with an object you are replicating and how it lives in your head, really spoke to me. I love watching these while working, I can't wait to see what you build next.

Hey Adam, enjoying your new Formlabs? :) I would gladly create some 3d meshes for you :)

20:19. Whatever Droid that is in the background is having a blast. "Cheep. WOOO!"

"If you've had half as much fun as I had, I've had twice as much fun as you" is my new favorite Adam Savage quote. Reminds me of "I don't know half of you half as well as I should like; and I like less than half of you half as well as you deserve."

Could not love the no sequitur more between the existential philosophy and "OOOOOOOOH SPARKLE SPARKLE SPARKLE!!!!"

Adam: I've been using it for 30 years. Me: Wow, that bucket has lasted a long time.

Just a note, this is based off of St. Edward's Crown, but it isn't the one that the monarch wears after coronation or other formal ceremonies. The one that's actually worn by the Queen is the Imperial State Crown that's fully encrusted in diamonds and jewels to the point where hardly any gold is visible.

from watching mythbusters to watching your youtube content, im just here to say im glad you are still putting content out because your channel is awesome and always entertaining to watch.

I just found this channel and can't stop watching. I watched this entire frigging thing in one sitting. I learn so much about the process of making. (The answer to any question, it turns out, is "It's a process." My new mantra.) Thank you, Adam. What a pleasure to share the fun you have as a maker and builder.

Isnt the ounces on that cup for fluid ounces? which is a purely volumetric unit, hence weight has nothing to do with it ;)

When he is calculating how much silicone he needs, it's a prime example for how ridiculous the imperial system is. 10cm*10cm*3cm=300cm^3 is about 300g of water.

I wish Adam would do a show where select fans could join him and they take a week or 2 to design and build the fans dream toy/action figure/model/etc. ....i could see this being really cool to watch and even more epic to take part in

Adam might appreciate this documentary about how British military uniforms were made for the recent coronation. There's a bit about how to make metal helmets about 40 minutes in. The guy uses an original tool he says dates from the 1600s! Coronation Tailors: Fit for a King, on the BBC.

I love the look of your new crown. The gold looks/pops much better than the brass does. Also, I wish I could afford a 3d printer. I'm a disabled Air Force Veteran who's got no income other than my disability compensation from the VA which is just $280ish per month. Yes that's all and the trick is that I'm constantly on the verge of homelessness again. Luckily I can work from home but trying to find a company willing to give me a job. So I'm trying to start an electronic repair/reuse/recycle business but lack the capital to start right away. I need so much equipment and tools plus the supplies for doing the repairs but I hope to find a way to do it. I see so many people like you that can do so much and just wish I could do the same. Maybe one day. Thank you for showing us your crown 2.0 project you show us how to do things easier and faster sometimes leaving the world with your knowledge so people can follow in your footsteps.

I can't thank you enough for this. I just finished my first Russian Imperial consort's Crown, & the fact that *even you* can take an otherwise "ok" project & use it as a "good first try" is very reassuring.
