Adam Savage's One Day Builds: Hellboy Samaritan Prop Barrel Rifling!

hey guys uh just a quick disclaimer before this  video gets started i'm really excited about this   video it is uh the final step in my hellboy  samaritan and i will be using this beautiful   piece of equipment to rifle the barrel but the  disclaimer i want to give is that it is not a   barrel and it is not a pistol and it is not  a firearm it is um a thing shaped like those   things but not made out of materials that can  be used to do those things um the firearm the   prop movie prop that i have been replicating  over several videos is hellboy's samaritan   but it is not a pistol it is not a real firearm  it is a firearm shaped object and as an sfso   it cannot be used to fire anything real and  thus the operation i am performing um is not   one that will help it be a firearm with that  being said let's get into the video thank you   for joining me in my cave this is adam savage  and uh today i have a one day build that is   a near completion of the one of the longer one day  builds uh and that is to do with this beautiful   part this is the barrel of my samaritan uh  hellboy's trusty sidearm that i replicated   from scratch out of a whole bunch of chunks of  aluminum and i had one more building step to go   for the samaritan and then it was on to painting  and treatment and the building step involves this   the barrel there we go okay so there's my  barrel and you will notice yeah i've got   some details that are in it but you  will notice that my barrel is smooth and in case you didn't know  gun barrels are not smooth   uh they can be smooth but when they are they  tend to lob their bullets not fire them um   for those students of munitions uh one of the  big advances made in the bullet the bullet was um   i think it's the invention of the monae  ball of the miniball it's a french   civil war era mid 19th century era bullet made  of lead and it was actually not too dissimilar   in size from hellboy's bullet here and we did some  firing of civil war era musketry on mythbusters   and we shot from a smoothbore and you  can literally watch in a smoothbore   barrel you can watch the monae ball come out of  the barrel and then just start tumble end over end   so you might have thought that the aerodynamic  shape of a bullet helps it stay in an aerodynamic   frame but that's not the case actually not at all  what keeps a bullet in an aerodynamic frame is an   invention that happened inside the barrel of the  weapon the mini ball was fired from and that is   rifling and rifling is the adding of grooves  in the barrel that uh go the full length of   the barrel and they impart a twist on the bullet  how do they do this it's actually totally amazing   um they're only uh maybe three to five thousandths  of an inch deep maybe even less they're very very   narrow but the lead bullet of a gun in general  they are lead we'll just make that the use case   we're discussing here in the lead bullet of a  gun the bullet is made ever so slightly oversized   to the size of the barrel this is actually  that's not incorrect that's not that's not   incorrect right it's slightly oversized and what  happens when the bullet gets pushed by the powder   uh is it expands to fit the barrel and  when it grabs the grooves of the rifling   which are uh they're concentric and they travel  along the barrel like this the bullet basically   locks into those grooves and starts  to twist as it's leaving and it leaves   with a rotation and that rotation is  how it keeps its aerodynamic frame   okay so that was the longest way of describing  it without showing you a practical example   my friend victor broadley who you might remember  as the engraver of these beautiful bullets uh is   a master machinist i i don't know if you'd mind me  saying it like that but dude what this what he did he made me a broach he made me a brooch  for the rifling that's what that is   okay um let me show you rifling first i want to  show you rifle first of all here is rifling i'm   going to hold the barrel up okay so now you see  how the right rifling is the opening of james bond   that's what rifling is so there is the  james bond opening this is a barrel   that victor milled out to the exact  same internal diameter as my samaritan so these two are identical in their  internal bore and then he made i'm   showing you on the good camera here and then  he made this okay so this this is a brooch   and if you look at the major parts of this brooch   you'll see there's four main rings of these  ribs so how does this work the way this works   is that the broach goes into the barrel  this way each of these little tiny   edges is a cutting edge in fact it's got a slight  negative rake on it that means it angles back from   the front edge and it peels out when you feed it  into the barrel when you feed it into the barrel   each of those leading edges starts  to peel a little metal in front of it   but this group of cutting edges is slightly  taller than that one and this group is   slightly taller than that one and this group is  slightly taller than that one and together they   clear about five thousands of an inch to create  exactly this kind of rifling in my smooth bore samaritan barrel okay so that's what  a brooch is a brooch is a cutting   tool and there are many different  versions of many different kinds   there are many different versions there are  many and there are many different kinds but   many of them operate on this principle of  multiple cutting edges each one a little   bit taller than its predecessor so that  each one isn't having to do too much work   um broaches are used for cutting keyways  in motor slots they're used for cutting uh   hell they're used for cutting the the hex ends  of hex bolts and stuff like that um all sorts   of different shapes internal pinion gears  brooches can be used for many many different   things victor hand made this one he actually  connected a gear train to the cross feed on his   mill and his indexing head which is that rotating  spinning head that i've used a whole bunch   um in order to mill these and then this is  hardened uh steel it was vacuum hardened um   one of the difficulties with uh uh heat treating  steel is that you can get a lot of oxidation   so this was heat treated in a vacuum i eat no  oxygen i eat no oxidation and that's this is   such a pretty piece of equipment so i am going to  use this broach to create this texture inside this   barrel and then that will be the last construction  detail on the samaritan and then it's time to send   it out and have it colored black yeah i'm very  very excited okay so how am i going to approach pushing this barrel pushing this  brooch through this barrel um   it's going to take a lot of energy it's going  to take a lot of force uh i could put it in   the mill and slowly push it like this but i  actually think i need more force than that um   and i mean i could put it in a lathe and  try that but again that's not yeah i um   after thinking of this for the last several days  i believe that in this shop it is easier to create   compressive force than it is to create um a  pushing it is easier to use compression to create   a pulling force than it is to create structure  to make a pushing force so let me explain so uh   if i want to push this brooch through this  barrel i have to hold on to this barrel   uh and if i have to hold on to this barrel i kind  of want to hold it on hold on to it from here   where i've actually got a tapped quarter 20 hole  for the uh cylinder center so i want to hold on   to it and then i want to hold on to it while i'm  pushing so it is this it's this and this this is   there's a lot that can go wrong with that because  i want the pushing to be centered i want the   the the force of the pushing if it's off here  then i'm pushing i'm pushing against this is   parallaxing again all of these forces are  real and they can really harm your build no   i don't think pushing is the answer here i  think pulling is the answer uh and i think   the way i want to do it pushing versus pulling  when i am pushing i need a structure behind   the pushing i can't just chuck this into a vice  and start hammering away at this i mean i could   but the results would be a horror show i want an  even steady pressure on this pushing it in and   that would mean a real large amount of pressure  back here i probably use all thread to do the   pushing but i need really fat all thread because i  wanna can kind of see where i'm going here whereas if i pull it then the structure can all  exist around the actual barrel itself   and that gives me the barrel to pull against  that's like half the size of the structure   that i need so what i'm thinking of is to use  this uh i think this is 5 16 or 3 8 all thread   and what i will what i'm planning to do is uh  put the all thread through the back of this   put that through a bushing that sits  in the back here with a teflon uh   teflon washer and a little keeper like a a what  do you call it nyloc nut uh and then i will be basically turning on this side tightening it  in and pulling it all the way through the barrel   that's a nice amount of centered force all the  force is in the center because the pulling force   is the center is the all thread right so that  is one good two i can't just pull up to here i   actually have to pull all the way past here i have  to get this all the way back out again and that's   where this comes into play i had a okay this is a  little smaller and a little thicker uh and this is   actually kind of the perfect size so it's probably  this right this is i'm guessing inch and a half id   uh and two and a half inch od um i didn't know  this you could order aluminum in pretty much any   od and id you want if you wanted like three inch  od with a half inch id you could probably find it   anyway this huge beautiful chunk of aluminum  i don't think i have to modify this at all   i think i merely need to hold it back here right yeah you see where this is going and  then this is how the stack goes that goes on   the underside comes up here i pull pull pull pull  and slowly it pulls the brooch all the way through   my barrel that's the plan if it turns out that i'm  not yeah that's the plan i have some modifications   i may do if that turns out not to work i really  hope it works because i only have one barrel so   um yeah i think it is mostly time to get  started um yeah that's the other thing is   i only get one chance to get this right all  right i'm gonna put this bushing in the end and i put it in the wrong hand classic put the bushing in the end it's a nice  tight fit uh okay so now i want this to be   this five yeah 0.375 the degree to which that  does not move is deeply pleasurable to me   i'm gonna go up i'm gonna go one size under  three eighths and i'm gonna ream it out   because tight tolerance is just  good practice all around here went too fast and my bearing my bushing got  grippy is what happened so let's um knock that off i'm going to ream this just a few thou   underneath the 3 8 because the offset  is already a few thousand underneath great okay so now what i'm going to do is i'm  actually going to use this is teflon i'm going   to machine a little teflon block that goes between  the end of my nut and my barrel and that should   provide a really nice slipping force so i'm going  to bore it out and then i'm going to machine it down there is a little teflon bushing okay  so all thread comes through the barrel this will go there god that almost almost  doesn't even need an alignment tool because   it's just gonna push it's gonna literally  pull from the center of this whole thing   right see that come on there we go i need  a chunk of aluminum with a thread or the   5 16 threaded hole that's going to be where  all that action is this this is pretty good   this is an old piece of uh equipment i had  yeah so if i'm pulling here yep yep yep okay i think i figured out how i want to do this i am going to i'm going to get this roughly  centered i have some room here i'm going to   get this roughly centered and i'm going to  use the band saw to carve away some of this some of this outer piece   yeah and that will keep this thing from  twisting i'm gonna do the same thing up here   i'm gonna yeah this is a quick and dirty  way to get this job done but because of the yeah i know i keep on stopping talking oh look  what i'm saying what there's a long way of me   saying um i am going to do this on the bandsaw  because it's faster than setting it up on the mill   um these two pieces and i don't think i need to go  through all that trouble to set it up on the mill uh new plan that was gonna take forever the  new plan is i've drilled exactly a two and   a half inch hole in this piece of plywood i have  wedged this two and a half inch piece of aluminum   in it and i'm gonna run it i'm gonna slot it i'm  gonna slot out i'm gonna slot out about this much i'm gonna slot that out on the  table saw and that will provide me   the thing that i want and it also is the  fastest and the safest yep here we go nice and gentle and i know that these are all parallel looks like it'll yep that's great  all right let's do that in the middle yeah see that that's great i'm going to do the  same thing on this side and then we'll be done really happy with how that turned out  so that's a notch where my gun sits   and that is a notch where my thread sits i  think i've worked this out and this is how if you're going to be doing any kind of  engineering making things that are structural in   any way which almost all making really has to do  with you have to be able to visualize the forces   involved in what you're making and how those  forces could aid in a bet your project or   inhibit that project so i've established  that um hold on where's the barrel i've established that in order to move this uh  this uh uh rifling brooch through the barrel i   need to have a piece of all thread that goes  through its center to a nut on the other side   and is also braced against right this piece of  aluminum and then braced against this piece of   aluminum this is this whole thing but here's  all the this isn't just dealing with the pulling   force it's also dealing with a twisting force  because i'm going to be spinning this all thread   that's why i put the piece of teflon here at the  other end so i have something for that pressure   to still be able to spin because if my spinning  is imparting any actual rotation on the brooch   other than the natural rotation of its just moving  through its own grooves then i've got a problem i   don't want to pull this broach straight through i  want it to move by its own volition so i want to   impart very little force as i by necessity rotate  the thing i'm pulling it through with so that's   why i've cut these two notches in this piece of  aluminum to keep this whole part from racking   while i'm actually pulling the brooch through  we're very close i'm actually not too far away   from being able to to get this going oftentimes  when you need a closer fitting washer um you have   to understand that the washers the washer  for a 3 8 is way over it's way over drilled   yeah it's got a lot of clearance on it so this  is the washer for a 5 16 and it's got a nice   reasonable fit on a 3 8. these are still too wide  they won't make it through the barrel so i need to   somehow turn them down a little bit all right  here's how i'm going to do this i'm going to put   a piece of a nut down here i'm going to thread the  two washers and i want these washers to be smaller   i want them to actually be smaller than the  diameter here of the teflon plug so i'm going to   put this nylock on here and tighten  it down to these yep and then all right there we go that those are respectively  round uh and this is a totally reasonable way to   do um non-dimensionally critical machining uh the  um back end of my the back end of my all thread   is problematic so i'll just put this  in on the front end and i've got a   new nylon here then okay there's that and you know i am ever ever so slightly just  a little too small for this uh   i have to cut and i have to cut an inch off  of this bad guy um because i miscalculated okay great and that goes there okay so yes   now i need to drill a hole through yeah  the center of that and that's a 3 8 hole   i'm going to do that on the drill press drilled  the hole i am going now to tap this hole now there's one other aspect of this  that i need to actually address which is   oh you've just made it all the way through which  is um the clarity of the threads on my all thread   it's not the neatest piece it looks a little  munged so in order to make sure i can actually pull the thread all the way through this threaded  hole i'm just going to run a nut all the way down   it and make sure that the thread is clean and  if it's not i have ways to clean it up there   we go that's a nice 3 8 inch hole look i could  have made doubly sure that this was perfectly   vertical but it wasn't mission critical for it  to be so i decided to save that five minutes   and all the way down to there so i can already  see that that thread is munched right there so   i'm just going to clean this  thread is munged here see that see that that's going to keep  a nut from threading on there   and you can see how that's already prepped so  i'm going to use that sander to clean this up all right here's what that  kind of cleanup looks like   there you go that should actually  allow me to thread a nut on and it does so the goal with that kind of cleanup is instead  of going all i go straight down a little bit   and then i do this chamfer spin and that really  helps ease in the threads to the nut and now well   now i'm going to thread it all the way down here  and just make sure that this all thread is clean looks like it's actually pretty good oh well you are ben aren't you i'm gonna  have to straighten that out a little bit oh i munged it with the i mentioned  it with the actual jaws of the drill   what a dummy all right so uh that's just a note  how easy it is to munch the threads of all thread   even something like that a three-jaw speed chuck  uh however the drill is in fact how i am going   to do all of this um all this pulling  but first i want to straighten this out   all right here we go i think it's time to give  this a shot uh i'm gonna use some cutting oil i'm nervous i am i'm just gonna put a  little tape on either side of this uh   gun barrel so that i protect it and don't  mar it i don't want to supposed to go   through all this trouble and my gun barrel  is somehow overly marred that's no good so that's great huh all right i have an issue  here which is that i'm trying to thread this   through this hole and i haven't made sure  that it'll clear that hole i made a nut   yeah i have to do a little bit i'm gonna run a die down this thread because it's  something's funky about it i want to make sure that seems like it's fine well that apparently was it yeah   i was getting a ton of binding there before  and now no more binding which is great okay there we are the whole  system is under tension and i'm pulling from here so um here's what i  think i'm gonna do i'm gonna hold the barrel and   the cork jaws of my vice i am gonna make sure i'm  mostly centered over this that looks pretty good i'm uh dropping some tapping oil  down the the threads there we go i just want them all to yeah so now   here's how i'm thinking about  pulling this i'm thinking about just good good good seems to be going well okay we're moving up in uh i want to get some more all right here we go oh oh my god i'm drinking oil on that  one that's what i want there we go so what happened what did i do i unwound it that's what i  did there was so much pressure so also my teflon was expanding that  doesn't work um i'm going to try this again   see if i can't get better better purchase let's grab this in the center yeah  you know what i may need to weld something to this   that's that that may have to happen let's just  try let's try munching the threads until we   get something going oh right so if i'm going to do  this now this is all under tension i want some oil   here i want some oil here some penetrating  oil yeah there's a lot of force man   there's a lot of force going on here this  is more than my drill can do but it oh it   is unwinding okay it is unwinding this thing  so uh clearly i need a better gription here   as i'm pulling this through the issue is this  nut is unwinding this nut here is unwinding   so i'm going to drill it through and put a  spring pin in otherwise known as a roll pin oh i'm getting impatient is what's happening  that's um uh drill bit got stuck in there   i'm gonna see if i can't use its stuckness  so here's what's coming up and as i turn this yep i'm getting all the turning oh okay i'm still turning  in relation which is good and everything else is staying  stationary let's give this a   little more penetrating oil down here just to let's also get the cutting oil into  there i'm on my second set of cutters that means i'm on that second ring of cutters okay by the way vice grip full marks we're  holding on to this threaded rod with   real alacrity that's great oh man there's no way my drill would have  done this none at all none whatsoever ah put an aisle in there let it run itself down   yep i can still see that it's turning and  moving it is pulling everything in with it and here comes the fourth set of cutters i really  hope ah oh okay yeah a little bit of a yeah grab it there then we used it the extra bit that's hard   third set of cutters are engaged all right  some get some more cutting oil down in there so it's slowly moving in this is still  spinning here on the bushing which is good   the drill bit i broke it's doing nicely as  a hardened pin to hold this all together   this is my workout today great i  still haven't messed up that cross pin   a pin through uh a pin through a nut is a super  positive grab because it puts all the force into   a shear right so like if you had a drill bit as  that pin it's it's literally got to be able to be   sheared in order to fail and don't get me wrong  that can totally happen but it's a lot of force i call this machinist tai chi our fourth third set  of cutters is already in and moving down as far as   my concern about marking or marring the barrel i  mean the fact is the barrel gets completely marred get some penetrating oil in there the  barrel gets completely marred anyway   because uh the shooting the shooting version  was heavily weathered oh okay i think we've   we've now almost reached the limit of  the uh vice grips ability to hold on oh two is twice as nice all right i still haven't   all the parts are still working that's what i just  keep on assessing the amount of heat going on here is diabolical but then friction is a really  good source for heat all right yep that looks like it's gonna clear the barrel  nicely the fourth set of cutters is engaged i don't know how many thousands  of pounds of force i'm applying   but i'm literally applying probably like 30 pounds of force from each hand yeah  i mean it's real this is a lot of force all right i'm going to get  this i don't want to stop   because i don't want it to get stuck right  now right now it has a potential to get hot it changes dimensions so i'm just  going to get some cutting oil there we go letting it drip out the bottom  that'll help carry away some of the heat   let's get some in there the thing about heat is  that um it can change the dimensions of your parts   and that's where it can cause you some real  difficulty so if all of a sudden yeah anyway   i'm sure someone could figure out how many  thousands of pounds of force i'm applying   by the requirement of about what  feels like about 75 pounds of force   on these handles so 75 pounds of force  moving laterally against a 3 8 18 thread come on physics nerds let's work it  out okay um nice good it's a lot cooler   excellent still looks like we're doing  good i'm not going to pause too long   i still haven't cleared the bottom of the  barrel literally the bottom of the barrel okay now i'm moving this is super intense i  really don't want to have to remake this barrel it feels like it's gotten  a little bit easier to move   which makes me wonder if i  haven't broken through the top   no not even close i'm still getting rid of lots  of material so what's happening in the barrel oh that was a problematic what's happening  in the barrel is that uh four sets of cutters are moving at once oh what happened what happened no no no no no no oh okay all right ah right okay cool   i thought i thought that this had sheared in the  middle but it had not had sheared towards the end   so i still have there we go uh so now i have to  do some work to get this fixed again um these um   dies with handles on them are great for exactly  this kind of thread repair they're phenomenal   i know some of you have probably been screaming  this solution since the very beginning   let me get one more lock nut uh i'm gonna try  and make this work with the roll pin instead of   the bed i'm terrified that once i get this  in and start to spin it it still won't move i'm picturing having to make this um this again all right that one's in the roll pin roll pins in first i want to cool  this off and then i want to grind   down the sides of the roll pin  here you can see the roll pin   all the way through that is a sheer force and i've  got a second nut stopping that nut from moving so i just ground those down so that they  clear the sides of this and allow this to   continue its journey all right so we had  a total failure of the rig and we're back   up and running just a few minutes later so  i'm gonna continue to attempt my onslaught   and i haven't broken through the top yet  that looks pretty good and so does that i'm running steel against a bronze  bushing which really i feel like should be a reasonable amount of uh okay i see one of my issues is that i've got  steel against steel all right so um i've got   to unmung these threads that i munch while  grabbing them with the vice grips because   what's happening is the nuts are turning  against sorry my steel nut is turning against my   steel washer and i thought the nut would  grab the washer and spin it against the   bushing but it ain't there we go okay  we're back to an orientation that i like there we go all right yup okay now  you're spinning against the bronze   pushing and that was bad sound i wonder what  that sound was oh that was the sound ah oh god are you serious did you just give up that  ghost for me i'm just really hoping i haven't   accidentally locked this in the barrel  that adds a several days to this build   i just sheared i just sheared the bolt yeah  that just sheared the um the bushing nice all right um i actually just took delivery  of this new vice i was planning on replacing   my old vise and so i just got this  brand new uh beautiful curt vice   and i am going to put the jaws in and i  think it's exactly big enough for me to uh for me to be able huh all right this vice ought to be able to put  a significant amount of poundage   behind behind this brooch um here's hoping  yeah i i'm terrified it's stuck in there okay so there we go look at that great  all right i'm gonna have to stop there   oh now now we're flush okay so now  i need something that goes in there   and i need to get rid of that bushing  let's see how far i can open this not just not this is smaller   that will fit oh yeah okay good that will fit  great okay so when i'm when i'm almost done   burying this in the end that's when i know i am  close to the edge better mechanical advantage okay we're moving i know i still don't know quite  how to work it out when i get to the other side   yeah i still have to solve  that problem how to clear   the brooch so i can get it out of the  other side no i'm just i'm solving one   problem at a time here i'm actually gonna  be sore tomorrow from operating a vice okay we're almost there so that's the other end of the   thing and the rifles are looking  uh they're looking real dude i have one weird start there but  the rifler is moving its way through   the hole's quite nice oh you can't  even see that hold on okay we have uh   we have some progress but now what now  now no i can't do that i can't go offset um ah right i also need a second one of the oh right  i haven't had yeah okay i have a whole bunch   of little chunks of steel all right let's try that great this is going to take all day just to get this okay yep we're down okay good we're not rubbing  terrific okay so now we're we're moving through god i hope this works this is all just  going to be done in a number of increments great all right i have to tell you i thought this was going to be  like could be like a 10 minute exercise like pull   it all the way through but there's enough force to  crush an oil bronze bushing that's a lot of force   that's a lot of that's oh that's a spicy meatball okay let's see how we're doing oh we still  have way more we could go there which is good just a little little cab full of little  chunks of round steel useful to have around still haven't seen the cutters yet still  hoping to see the cutter someday soon okay good that's straight oh i'm really gonna enjoy the reward  of a pop-tart at the end of all this so here's from math for you physics people this  is uh about a seven inch throw about an eight   inch throw and i'm putting what has to be 120  pounds of force on this because i think that   boy i think that uh my wife could  stand on this and it wouldn't move   hey there but we have our first glimpse of the  chips from the cutters they're moving and now   you see why there was a space between each set of  four cutters needs to have a place for chips to go by the way this kurt vice i've been wanting one  of these forever and like i said i will do a   tool tip on it um because well i started chasing  those zeros for those of you yelling solutions   at the screen that i eventually choose thank you  thank you for your awesome suggestions all right   so we're going to go until that bottoms out and  that's nice and level and centered over here go   better better this should get easier as  the cutters break through actually maybe it shouldn't relatively straight great oh my god i can't wait until this is done this that's my heart by far the most  labor-intensive part of making this damn thank god this vice arrived today literally  like two hours ago the postman wasn't very   happy about it i mean the fedex guy was a  heavy package okay so we're doing pretty   good we're now we're three and a half inches in  that's halfway through halfway through good god maybe that'll do oh wait a  second i think i have an idea bingo bingo yeah that'll do it i bet  oh we're very close we're very close all right i'm using my second  vice my edelweiss it's not in the grade school middle school  middle school middle school   production of the sound of music in which  the incomparable desiree lozier played maria   i played franz the butler okay  so this is now how i'm thinking going off angle and i don't want to but  i don't see that i have much of a choice um let's see if i can get any purchase  on movement all right that's the thing   if i can get any purchase on movement this is  and again i wouldn't do this if this wasn't   my former vice that i'm doing this to because  i'm mounting i don't love it i don't love it yeah yeah i'm gonna shoot that screw i wanna show that  bowl well let's see if i can actually get   movement i can oh it's moving oh my god this  is it's not scraping okay great oh my god   okay still not scraping good oh it's getting easier by the turn still not scraping good oh my god that was so touch and go let's get a little bit of some extra  action here that's it there it is that is one two three four sets of cutters clear  of the barrel oh yeah and now it's just fingers oh holy hell that was a thing the brooch looks wonderful uh and the barrel there you go the front barrel all  the samaritans now james bond gun   oh it looks so great victor ah so after a lot of elbow grease a lot of elbow  grease and not too much marking of my barrel i have successfully i have successfully  rifled the barrel of the samaritan and you   can see it there you go you can see the  rifling look at that look at how pretty it's probably illegal for me to even hum that much um brooches look the reason that was so hard is  not because uh victor designed this brooch poorly   uh i gave him an internal measurement  uh down to the uh hundredth of an inch   i think it's point eight one seven eight one six  i might have been off by a thousand and a thousand   can sometimes be enough to mess up your  persuasion significantly plus there's   nine cutters engaging with this barrel  along the entire seven inch journey um   that's a lot of friction it's a  lot of frictive power and i like i think this is the hey yeah my camera that dirty hi that's much better ish our barrel of the samaritan is now rifled that  is the last mechanical task on the samaritan and   it goes into the bucket of parts and now i'm gonna  send it out to be blackened that feels like a real   milestone i've been kind of waiting on tackling  that for a few weeks now well uh victor and i've   been talking about it he sent me the brooch  just about two weeks ago a week and a half um and i'm excited about this blackening process  it's the first time i'm trying it on a prop   uh we'll see if it serves the needs that i  have uh otherwise i can always just paint it   if the blackening turns out to be a horror  show but the samaritan now has some rifling   yeah that's great thank you guys for joining me  for this way longer than i thought one day build   uh thanks for suffering through  all the different techniques   of creating some force after all my talk  about using a pulling force that that was   going to be easier i had to end up doing it on  the vices i had to end up doing all the pushing i just want you to know just  to show off victor also sent me   this barrel he did which is  exactly the same boar as my barrel somehow i doubt he had as much difficulty  as i had but he has a different shop   i haven't actually been to his shop so i  don't know what kind of special tools he has   what is with a wedge of my hair hi everybody  thank you for joining me for this one day build   i am going to clean up a bit because  the shop is a unholy mess and uh all right there we go

Why does Adam always feel the need to underscore that the gun isn't real?
