Alright no lie, just got it for Christmas, and This is without a doubt the coolest thing I own, I was worried it would just feel like an over glorified lighter but it makes me feel like I want to take down an empire and learn the ways of a magical telekinetic power from an old muppet. From the metallic design to the green flame(thought I would be blue first oh my god it was epic seeing it was green out the box) and a token that says I have helped in the development of the world’s first lightsaber… y’all keep up all the incredible things y’all are doing as y’all really are turning movies and the dreams of being in those worlds into reality. Merry Christmas, may the force be with y’all, happy new year and all that jazz to everyone at hacksmith industries.

Fun personal experience: for about a year, I worked in a silicon wafer manufacturing facility with Class 10 clean rooms. No perfume, cologne, makeup, or even deodorant was allowed on the people working in there. And no skin exposed. Everybody had to wear full body suits that were sealed, and goggles that even had small air filters in them.

The team at Hacksmith Industries actually do things that most people don’t even think of. It’s crazy 🤯.
they started off from making fun silly inventions to literally becoming self taught scientists. been watching for a very long time (around 4 years). GOODLUCK HACKSMITH!
Congratulations! I been watching you guys on and off for some years; and I feel this is a very well deserved milestone for you guys. You didn't just all of a suddenly release this lightsaber product, it's been a long grueling endeavor that we've been following you guy's through this entire time. So if the admiration of a complete stranger matter's any to you guys, you have mine and I'm very impressed with what you guy's have done with this channel, and I wanted to express that by congratulating you guy's; imo you truly deserve this success.
It's amazing how fare he's come. A legendary smith to be remembered for the ages. I'm honored to be apart of your subscriber group 🙏
I like how your calling them lightsabers cause the fact its now kind of possible is really cool but at the same time thinking about what this thing actually is in the way it functions, I find it insane that youve figured out a way to literally sell functional handheld rocket engines legally.

I know no one will see this, but I just want to say how amazing you guys are. From your Garage to the H.E.R.C facility I've watched every video. I've forgotten how long or at what amount of people I subscribed to you guys at cause it was so long ago. But I want to thank you guys for everything you're doing, pushing the boundaries and inspiring generations of engineers, chemists, physicists and rocket scientists. Keep up the amazing work, can't wait for the 'We Amputated this Guy's Limbs and turned him into Darth Vader' video. But seriously, you guys are awesome. Edit: Sooo, a couple people saw it... lol

Cleanrooms are fun. Worked briefly as IT support at a company with a cleanroom-within-a-cleanroom. As a bonus, they worked with high powered magnets, so there were separator kits every few metres as well.

I'm a fan from the Philippines, I've been following this channel since you created a Kings men umbrella. You guys are amazing, making the impossible to possible. keep it up!
I’m so glad you came back and refueled long live nerds and hard work and always remember the true ogs who pushed you knowing you can do it and create awesomeness.
It's crazy how far you guys have come and it's great to see James back in videos with new energy and ideas! Shows how important taking time off can be. It was so cool to see you give a free mini saber to the delivery driver. Acts like that separate you from typical businesses.
I am amazed by amount of explosions and video production put. This grew to insane sizes from the garage boys making some funny things like Thor hammer.
You guys are awesome and are living the dream. So happy that you are allowing all us nerds this awesome experience, hope everything continues to go well!
Been watching and enjoying your videos and inventions for quite a while and I'm honored that my first lightsaber is coming from u guys 😁
Started watching this channel about 7yrs ago when you guys did the Batman grappling hook and Batarang vids, and I have to say, it's astonishing the amount of progress all of you have made in seven years. Well done! Wish all of you nothing but the best of luck and success on your work. Stay awesome!
Imagine they forgot the "DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME" and some one goes out and goes boom. Also, "A single dust particle... could cause the lightsaber to become a bomb," Lightsabers arrive and are dropped.

Freaking SWEET. Although I shudder to think about the havoc people could get up to with one of these, but I hopefully the cool factor of just having one will outweigh any "sith instincts." And invisible flame that hot is scary. The Hydrogen "pop" in that demonstration practically singed my eyebrows watching at home.
I got my mini saber pre-ordered a LOOOOONGG time ago, finally came and it beat out my expectations.
That back to the future reference at the start was brilliant, props to James
its good to see that you are beginning the first step of sizing it down so respect and even if you face challenges continue to go on like you have always done with lightsabers or other projects
Love the aperture labs reference! My favourite game series ever. I’m only here to see some cool flame stuff didn’t expect to see my favourite piece of media out there! Haha cracking job lads.
Way more amazing than I expected. Just got my gen2 Today. Great job guys
Can’t believe this is just the beginning of lightsaber tech. Love the new concept to keep everything in the hilt like a true lightsaber! Stay safe and congrats on the success of the mini sabers!!🔥
Hacksmith is actually going to create world's first fully functional real lightsaber
Surely one can't have too many lightsabers. Just look at General Grievous
bro really went from garage tomfoolery to a lab
I love the design of the dark one, especially the fact that you can mix the colours and create a beam of rainbow, RGB mini-saber!
All the aperture science references are great to see. Love to see progress on the lightsabers. An idea from Cave Johnson - combustible lemons to but your house down! Probably not legally allowed.
I truly admire your channel for its engineering ingenuity and credibility. You can see engineering past, present and future in your labs.
I got mine a few weeks ago. I have some feedback, if the base gets twisted in some ways, the locking mechanism can fail (not lock), if you put it in and out of the original packaging a few times twisting back and forth to get it out, you might encounter that too. Second, the adjustment ring is lacking range, the flame is way go much to do heat shrink work with it, I need to be able to throttle down more.
The fact you have a class 100 clean room is unreal. That must’ve been a real challenge.
I can't wait to see where this research goes. I know that some universities are working on ways to make self-contained magnetic fields and then combining that with plasma and laser technology.
I ordered one today can’t wait for it to arrive
what nowadays looks like steampunk science for this kind of lightsaber, serves as the foundation for what can come out of it given 50 to 150 years in the future. just imagine what can happen with better tech. so you deserve all the love and respect for being pioneers.
Hacksmith is doing something, that even large companies wouldn't do. Big respect
As much as I love the idea the things that could go wrong with a real lightsaber kinda scare me. Be sure to cover all your legal bases Hacksmith Even on these mini ones.
Wow! I used to set up those projectors for conventions back before Covid when I was a stagehand.
"you guys aren't ready for that but your kids are going to love" it really took me back.... TO THE FUTURE
i just realized watching this vid that i've been subscribed for 7 years to this channel. i remember being in college for engineering when you guys first put out applications for summer interns and thinking to myself that i would have applied if i was single at the time and wouldnt have to leave my then girlfriend in the one time of the year that we didnt have to be long distance. we ended up getting married though so no regrets, but it does feel weird knowing that i had an actual chance of being on this channel that i've somehow spent so long with. love the vids as always, it's amazing to see how far this channel has progressed in my time watching
I am curious as to how they'll manage sabers clashing. It's been long theorized(and more or less confirmed in rebels) that sabers utilize a magnetic element to keep the blade intact. Maybe they'll be able to utilize something to that regard?
