Please Adam, if you ever get a chance to draw Jack in your nerdcave, grab a camera and just talk for like an hour while trying to build something. This is the content I need

Upholstery wasn't Jack's hobby. He was an upholsterer before he became a musician. So having done it I guess it stuck with him.

@@mpbx3003 Adam was a prop maker. It's been a life long passion for him. I think he still does some commission work. But he doesn't really have to work anymore. As he put it, he made that TV money for years. Now he just keeps himself busy.

I love that Jack White and Adam are friends. Adam inspired me to start in engineering and Jack inspired me to pick up music (drums, guitar and bass) The sheer joy on Adam's face is reflected in my own whenever he talks about Jack White!

Props to Jack! There’s nothing better than to sit down on your favorite chair and just go to work on your stuff!

Jack is a very DIY kind of a guy.

Two of my favorite things in one video...I love that Jack embraces his early work as an upholsterer (as indeed it was the name of his first band)

Fun story (I think I heard him tell it in _It Might Get Loud_ but I'm not sure): when he was working as an upholsterer, he and fellow upholsterer Brian Muldoon were in a band, The Upholsterers. They used to hide their record in some of the furniture they upholstered. In fact, that may be what he's referring to at 5:12.

Definitely was in It Might Get Loud. One of the best documentaries ever

I cannot help observe even from my own experience that the "maker" culture seems to foster a strong sense of thankfulness. Inspiration, exposure to clever useful tools, a finished project and even just seeing the build process all are valued things. Unhesitating credit given is also fantastic to see as well as the "narrative" of the objects involved. Thanks so much Adam, you inspire a faith in the better nature of humanity.

A seven nation army couldn't hold me back from watching this.

I'll say this again: Adam's unbridled, unabashed enthusiasm for his subject material is at least half of the reason I come here. The man is genuinely excited about the thought that went into creating this seat cushion. He's jazzed about the decisions that were made in materials and color. It feels like he wants his audience to be as happy about his chair as he is. The man is a national treasure.

"Next time you're in town drop by and we'll fix my medical stool." An invite that wouldn't be appealing if you got it from 99.999% of people, but Adam can totally get away with it.

Every once in awhile Adam drops a video that makes me a little more envious than usual. The idea that Jack White is a huge MythBusters geek and maker himself, makes *_me_* happier than it probably should~

Saw a show on the old record studio jack bought along with the rights to crap loads of old songs. He is saving, restoring and using the old equipment. Part of music history and still has time to restore your stool, it's so cool

I remember seeing Jack interviewed and he spoke about the number 3 being important to him and one of the reasons was because for so many upholstering projects, he was amazed that they only needed 3 staples to hold the fabric in place.

As a professional Upholsterer, Jack White is very well known in the Upholstery community and a favorite story continually circulated about Jack is that when he was struggling to become known to music fans, he would put his first album within the carcass of the furniture he was restoring. I often leave a note for the next upholsterer in historic pieces, but would be blown away to find a Jack White Album !

Literally was just listening to him on the way home and then I saw this video and thought “it must be a different jack white!” What an amazing gift though! And he’s so talented

I opened an Etsy shop for Dungeon Master gaming screens six months ago after many years of wood working and making in my spare time. I agree that making something which is intended for regular use by someone is truly one of the great pleasures of creation. Greater care and intent goes into each detail knowing that an item will be cherished and utilized by someone in an activity that brings joy to a group of people is one of the things that brings me the most happiness.

The wide-eyed wonder and childlike joy you experience life is an inspiration.

Jack is the real deal. He could buy whatever he wanted or hire someone to make custom stuff, but he does it himself. A true DIY king.

Wow.... Now I'll have to stream me some white stripes.... Haven't listened to them in years but awesome human beings make awesome art. And that was an example of an awesome human.

Absolutely. Definitely check out some Raconteurs, Dead Weather and Jack White solo albums too.

Jack is "one of a kind", just as you are Adam....what a beautiful GIFT! Thank you for sharing that today...Loved it!

The appreciation of craftsmanship and artistry is truly fun to watch and is one of the reasons I love Adam Savage

Lovely gifts from a lovely human being to another lovely human being. Jack White has been an inspiration to us as songwriters and as a band. But we are now inspired by your friendship. Warmed our calloused hearts. Peace and respect from a little band in Canada 🇨🇦✌️

the sheer mass of FLEX in the sentence "I have a custom made stool made for me by my friend Jack White, one of the most famous musicians in recent history" is absolutely astonishing. i am in AWE of how cool that is!! I know Adam isn't actually flexing here he's just genuinely incredibly exited AND SO AM I!

Don't know if Adam or anyone else thought this, but the bottom with the Manta skin, makes the underside look like....... a _record!_ Also, I agree, that tapemeasure is great looking. The backside numbers I imagine helpful as hell. But the contrast and large numbers must be helpful, too!

So how many here just geeked out that they know each other and that Jack does this sort of stuff? And that he is watching these vids of Adam right along with all of us...

I'm not surprised at all, I mean, Jack White's basically a genius and, as for what Adam's told about him, a great person to be friend to. Looking forward to see a video of both building smth.

What a talented man jack white is 👏🏻

As a musician and mad scientist, I've always had a great appreciation for Jack White's builds and Third Man Products, like the sustainer pedal made with old telegraph mechanicals. My wife and I frequently travel to Nashville and are also Detroit Tiger fans, so I was so happy to find a black and yellow scarf at Third Man Records when we were there for the 2020 New Years Celebration (the coldest New Years Eve on record) that has a yellow side with black text and a black side with yellow text, one side says NASHVILLE, the other DETROIT.

as a profesional knife maker I can agree Nothing feels better than hearing and/or knowing what you have created is being used and brings others joy

It's always more fun to randomly get something in the mail when you don't expect it!

HA that is frickin amazing. Jack White is most likely an extraterrestrial when it comes to musical genius, but he's also so thoughtful about making something with details specific to you. Very nice

Oh dear.. I have every one of those badges.. No one learns how to work with wood without a few cuts.. Absolutely fabulous video by the way.. Jack White is a great guy.

The connection between you and Jack White is a REALLY cool thing. Huge Jack White fan and of course, of yours.

When he says "drive belt of a turn table" you can see hes genuinely so happy about that and thinks its so cool.

Adam, I don't know what was more exciting seeing the amazing artisan workmanship of the uber talented #jackwhite or the excitement you telling the very heart warming story of what true humanity is and the example of a real friend. I saw a interview of Loretta Lynn and Jack of course was featured, you really get to see what a stellar guy he is. Great video Adam, by the way been a fan of yours for years and love all you do!

I love how you still get so excited about little things, Adam!

I HAD NO IDEA JACK WHITE WAS AN UPHOLSTERER!! That is so cool to know that he’s a maker! Absolutely beautiful work on that stool cushion!

As a huge fan of The White Stripes, the gigantic, boyish smile on Adam's face when talking about something Jack White made for him warms my heart.

I would like to thank Jack and Adam's parents for bringing up 2 wonderful human beings .

I love those stools and as a nurse in the Cardiovascular Lab (have a heart attack, see me) I used those all the time (I'm retired now). I'm glad you were able to get the cover repaired on a wonderful piece of shop infrastructure.

Jack White and Adam Savage, holy heck. my whole childhood in one vide. i love you Adam.

the fact that two of my favourite people in the world hang out and "chat" is amazing

I look forward to 'this old ass' , coming to pbs soon.

I definitely didn't expect a friendship between these two but holy cow I absolutely love how wholesome this was! Jack White is damn good at keeping crowds pumped and upholstery, who knew!?

Jack white chair. Totally awesome. I never knew he is a maker of more than music. The whole video made me smile 😃 . Thanks for sharing 👍

Wow. I'm still processing the fact that Jack White and Adam Savage are not only on a texting-each-other basis, but are both makers and do this kind of thing for one another. Two of the coolest, most inspiring men in my lifetime. What amazing thought and symbolism that Jack put into that gift too! Makes me respect him even more as an artist. Hoping we keep hearing more about him on the channel!

I would say 1st of all you have something upholstered by Jack White which is totally out if this world awesome by its self. 2nd of all it's beautiful and looks very well made.

That is really neat, I never knew he did stuff like that.

Only Adam can talk about seemingly simple subjects and make them so interesting

How supercool - and to me it seems that Jack White has made an LP record on the bottom 💪🏼. I simply just love multi talented people with imagination and clever hands 🙌🏽🤘🏽

Astoundingly cool to a have a personalised stool upholstered by no less than Jack White, including an accompanying custom tape measure! AWESOME!

As a Jack White fan, this is a hugely delightful thing. Thanks for sharing Adam.

Hey Adam. I love those chairs, I use 4 in my shop as well. You MUST upgrade the casters to the new roller blade style gel wheels. Smoothest ride ever. Super cheap on Amazon, $20 or less.

Hahaha! You are like a kid at Christmas! Well done, Mr. White. Love the detail in the middle of the tape measure. Brought back many memories.

I absolutely love that after all of the incredibly cool things we have see you make on this channel, and all the joy it has brought all of us that we get to see you so excited over the details in this gift!

Ive worked in a office space for 4 yrs and when I started i wass given a catalog to pick my own chair. To everyones surprise I picked a similar stool it so my better for your posture. Since they have sit/stand desks I spend most of the day standing and it stows away under the desk much easier. Ive converted half of my office now we look like a bunch of children rolling around its great.

I’ve been a keen follower of Adam’s output for many years now and am also a huge fan of Jack White’s music (seen him live four times now). It was absolutely surreal to me when those two worlds collided and you visited Third Man records. I sometimes still pause to think, did that really happen, it’s too random, too weird. It unnerved me. That said, I enjoyed the videos😃!

Jack is both a gentleman and a scholar. Cheers

Amazing Jack White & Adam Savage what a collaboration, something we needed but never wanted. A bright star in this dark universe of media

Adam, you've nailed the Mad Scientist hair in this episode! It's perfect.

Jack White, just existing as a low profile (in terms of his non-music work) badass! I hope you can get him over to the cave (especially if you can get a video)!

Holy Hell Jack is my hero.

I love how he found the musical inspiration and conveyed that to you just spinning and spinning around.. That's so awesome..

So excited to see this stool in your hands after following along the process on the Third Man Upholstery instagram! Jack White is such a hard-working, talented, and inspiring human. The touches and thought he put into this stool warm my heart. What a special update to your studio. xx

This is SO wholesome, to see Adam's enthusiasm and gratitude.

The chair is beautiful. That tape measure is *chef's kiss* - I want one.

Awesome. Like-minded people making the world a better place.

WOW! Amazing gift from Jack White!

For me, that is the coolest thing in your workshop! A high score on the cool scale for Savage here. Jack White is my fave musician! Tape measure 2nd fave! Love this

I already felt that Jack White was an awesome guy and this just deepens that feeling. Also, I never would have expected a friendship between these two- but it absolutely makes sense and it is now one of my favorite things ever.

absolutely a sincere gift of time and skill, towards friendship ! I'm moved completely ! His new album hasn't left my turntable, it's so loud and goooood! Makes me happy you two are such friends and fell into each others orbit!!

And I never thought I‘d watch a clip where one man expresses his gratitude of another man having toyed with his stool and feel happy about it…

You're absolutely correct Adam there's nothing better than sitting in a stool that's so comfortable that you can fall asleep on my opinion at least love your videos keep up the great work.

I have that vinyl copy of Adam’s song. I wish that more musicians record this way. Simple, not overdone music.

I love that Jack White turns upholstery into an art form

Adam, your videos never fail to give me a grin and a chuckle, and more than once a chance to think about something deeper than everyday life. May you always find things to bring you the joy you bring to us.

Your guy's relationship is very inspiring, I loved both of you when I was younger (clearly that hasn't changed) and it's an awesome combination (Okay, well, I loved Jack's music, I learned about him as a person later)

Wonderful job by Jack!!!!!!!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

Incredible, two very talented people coming together to share greatness. I love it, and now I need to keep my eye out for that stool.

Jack White is so genuinely compassionate for creating shit. The stool is as beautiful as his music - you both are truly a pair of legends.

That tape measure is super dope, im looking for one now. Just to have the cool double sided measure tape. Both you and Jack White are legendary humans.

I think you made a friend for life that day you went to Third Man as that craftsmanship is top notch, wouldn't mind something like Rayskin for a watch strap.

Love it! You are so blessed, Jack is truly an artist in every sense of the word.

"Mysteries lie within" is most likely because he's put something like a note to you inside. I read he used to write notes or add poems inside the works he did. I'm sure he still does!

This video brings me so much joy. You and Jack white both changed the way I see the world. It is incredible to see that two of my heroes are makers and friends

So thoughtful! I love everything about it.

Imagine being friends with both Adam Savage AND Jack White. You'd be the coolest person in the world.

so im pushing 31 and am no where near where id like to be in life. Im starting to tackle my mental health which is a BASTARD of a task (BP2) my point is, I just found this channel and have been binge watching and fmy take away is I hope once I get my head right I can be as productive and happy as you are. Ive got tons of creative ideas in my head but can never produce them because of the way my brain works. Keep doing what you do man, you're an inspiration of creativity and dedication.

Jack White is a creative genius. Everything he creates there's just so much artistic thought put into it. I'm in awe of him.

It's always awesome to find something like that about great artist.

Jack will never retire. He will be making stuff til the day he dies.

Nicely done, Jack White!

This is unreal, I’m an auto detailer and just lent out my rolling stool and this video pops up. How cool is Jack White, wicked rolling stool....Savage!

Absolutely outstanding stuff - what a beautifully kind and wonderful thing to do for someone, restores my faith that man can be kind to man

Jack White is a great human.

You definitely need to get Jack on for a One Day Build!

Well isn’t that the coolest thing ever. Amazing. Huge fan of Jack.
