Now I know you probably won’t see this but it is my absolute dream to see a working pair of the ODM gear from Attack on titan if you see this please make it if you can and put it in a video
Can you start making r6 things real?
Are y’all doing a give away with a dude called “hit me up James hobs”
kan you mak Rock lees weight he wares on hi legs
well now I know who to go to when Husks, Mist Monsters, and Undead start invading the world.
14:30 They made a weapon more powerful than they could've ever imagined, there was no projectile, they just deleted a part of the door,
Bruh
Bruh
I mean the door is 2mm of wood veneer and some cardboard.
@@alyssa2242 Bruh
@@alyssa2242 I doubt it even has veneer. More like woodprint paper.
Imagine having this in a snowball fight
Imagine visiting your friends in the hospital 😜
@Dhugo and only the parts they can collect afterwards, have you seen what it did to the watermelon?
but can shoot 30 shots per recoil
That would legitimately deal the damage it does in fortnite in real life.
And he's out! Out of blood
I love the small group dynamic in this video. It feels more like one of the old hacksmith videos back in the house but with all of the fantastic production value weve gotten used to recently.
everyone seems so energetic and looks like they are having genuine childish fun.
I appreciate the more in-depth explanation of the plan and more details shown of the build! Hopefully that trend continues :)
Wicked! Mix that water with sawdust next time and I bet your projectiles would hold up better on impact! :D
@Arian Azelatroh lethal weapon
@Arian Azelatroh project Habakkuk may be a failure but project Hailstorm has immense potential, I'll tell you that much.
Satan, is that you? Lol
npc
Gotta love pykrete
As a fellow Canadian, this channel makes me proud of the potential, of what can be done in our winters. Go HackSmith! Awesome video!
Also, can you make a scaled down DIY version of this?
I literally just got back from my first visit to Canada, the Rockies up there are almost better than in Colorado
aye hell yea much love from canada mane
Good thing I live there 😂
I wonder what would happen to a Canadian in an Australian summer.
I think its important to note that the munition was the weak link in this video, if you change the munition from ice to metal you would get an even more dangerous weapon out of this build. Would be interested how thick of a steel plate it could punch through
Great video! and what i loved the most was the detailed explanation of the launcher! Most youtubers think that what's important is always the end product, but we as engineers, we really care about the engineering and the design behind it so we can learn stuff while enjoying the video and what you're doing! Thanks for that and please keep this up as it makes the videos 100 times better when we understand what's going on!
12:48 He definitely tried to give a high five 😂
I love the energy and happiness that Charles has after every shot
@Michael O'Connell ya, it's a bit over the top and forced
A little tooooo much energy. Dude needs to chill out with his new snowball launcher...and practice his aim better
He yells "Ho ho ho" every time he fires the thing like he's Santa Claus handing out presents at the speed of sound.
@@michaeloconnell4441 What's next ?, you're going to tell me people don't disintegrate when they leave or that Chris Evans can't take out four guys with a bouncing shield ?
@@littlenour1 You'd be like that too if _you_ designed and built a monster snowball cannon from scratch like that
The barrel is the MVP of these types of videos. Always there when needed for dangerous testing. Standing proudly, even when enveloped in flames.
This was THE most fun to watch hacksmith video! Charles did an incredible job and the formatting and technical explanations had me interested to re-watch to learn more!
Would it launch harder projectiles? Like the ones you guys used for the cannon that was mounted onto the Cybertruck?
It probably does, as it's just an over engineered potato cannon so it should launch anything that fits in the barrel I'm sad they didn't actually try it on video though
Just wait till someone decides to load steel ball bearings or marbles. That’s when shit gets serious
Now you have to attach this snowball canon to the Power Loader! This is the way!😂 You're welcome 😊
Then it can be BELT FED
Christ that'd just be so OP. A bit of depleted uranium armour plating around the roll cage and that thing would be a fully armoured sci-fi mech suit at that point.
Did you ever think of making the projectiles out of Pycrete ice? Might help with the breaking up in the barrel issue.
The amount of creativity here is insane! Can't wait to see what you guys do next!
Cool! Now build a fortnite minigun.
Um…
Um
Um
Um
Um
Imagine bringing this to a elementary school snowball fight 💀💀
The quiet kid wouldn't stand a chance 💀
you'd actually annihilate an entire human child
@@quentin6893 nah the quiet kid would be using this
Anakin ?
I FULLYYYYYY understand Charles' happiness in this video. Throughout the course of my life I've made a few completely deadly airguns (including a vortex gun that shoots over 10,000 rounds per minute) and yep... that feeling you get when it's done and blow something to a million pieces with it is something special XD
Today's Fact: In 1975, the front pages of newspapers in different parts of the world carried news of two separate plane crashes, both involving planes with flight numbers 123 and both crashing at the same time.
You are actually first 👁👄👁🤨
Yo I see you on so many videos 🤣🤣🤣
I'd say this definitely up there with one of the cooler builds you've done
The master plan seems to be certainly on point so far, keep up the great and entertaining work.
If you ever gonna make a V2 of this, you could try to get closer to the original by actually using snow - compressed into the right shape and density by using some of the air pressure. Imagine, you fill in some snow, press a button/lever that compresses the snow into essentially ice projectiles - and boom, you got yourself an unlimited ammo cheat code during winter😎 That said, the existing build is far better than what Epic Games puts into their game every winter😅
I like the fast flow valve design, the machining, and the laser cutting
Really nice job explaining how it works, showing the build, and showing a pretty comprehensive test, all in 18 minutes.
I loved the detailed explanations of the engineering concepts-please incorporate these into all of your videos! They make the video not only entertaining but also educational :)
Something you should build is the mask and sword from dishonored, I know it’s not a huge project like your always doing now, but it would be a sick thing to have a folding sword and a mask that can zoom in.
Now what you need to do is to challenge mark Roger with his machine snow gun.
Mark Rober, not Roger. It’s speed vs power!
Sorry stupid auto correct
That’s understandable
thats crazy
This has to be the cleanest recovery from an ignored high-five I have ever seen. 12:47
CRAZY!! Need to attach it to the power loader
Hacksmith❤
Id be awesome to see some God of War weapons or something from you guys
The firing sound it makes is actually legendary. It sounds like a genuine fantasy weapon.
I can think of a few people who would want this thing. 1. Villain/ Super Villain "Think of all the unexplained killings we could get away with, i will take 1 no make it 2." Think HISHE Ant Man. 2. The C.i.A "Think of all the unexplained killings we could get away with"
So much Fun to watch, missing littlebit of the detail in process and maybe some failures? Nethertheless, awesome love you guys
Potato cannon speeds meets hardened ice balls, doesn't sound like a problem at all
i'm just imagining the guys as criminals robbing banks with these weapons, it's crazy!!!
This is one of the coolest projects on the channel! It's not only super fun and dangerous, but I also learned how really fast valves work!
I thought Canada had a projectile speed limit before being considered a fire arm??
By the current laws on the book that is 100% considered a firearm and a prohibited one at that since the bore diameter is over 20mm.
@@eternalfire1244 based and ancapilled
imagine having it combine as a machine gun in snowball fight 😎
The name subsonic snowball gun implies the existence of a supersonic snowball gun
This thing is literally perfect. You can use it as a shotgun, or for precision, and precision also has a teeny tiny shotgun effect as well.
Will Farrell's Cannon has been achieved
love this channel always puts a smile on my face
Good to see you got Chris Ray Gun on the team!
After every Charles project I swear he starts to feel more like a psychopath.
Ayyy y'all should make the ray gun from call of duty 😀😀🍆
If snow men throw snow balls dose that mean there throwing there own flesh?
In a way, yes.
I hope you consider extending a full time position to Sean later, he was great
Introducing the latest in expert home defense: the Hacksmith Ice Laucher
You know shit's crazy when the IRL version is more dangerous than the in-game one. For extra accuracy you could either rifling in the barrel or a rifled ice slug. A cardboard sabot might help protect the ice as it flies down the barrel so it doesn't disintegrate, or at least keeps better groupings.
This was awesome 😂 I'm loving the new toys being made this year 👍
Might be easier to fire at the hip if the handle and trigger were on top of the gun, but love it as a mounted cannon. The power is unbelievable.
Now this is a classic project! Good old engineering based on more accessible concepts
wait that’s actually low-key awesome. I’ve played Fortnite for a couple years and the snowball launcher is cool. the video editing is top-tier too.
Imagine if they made pycrete slugs. Those would have been devastating
Neat valve designed. Air spring poppet valve with a spool pilot. Pretty cool
corvos folding sword would be dope
I love it so much just how much of this is beaten together, whether it's a plank of wood or his bare fists he's just constantly pummeling this thing into working order, lmao
Hey 😊
Ps: 500 km/h is about 40% the speed of sound, so yeah, im pretty sure its the fastetst
Imagine the damage if they had used those super strong ice made with cotton balls. It would pack a real deadly punch!
wow
"You know it's a hacksmith weapon,when it's designed to be a two handed weapon but you need two men to hold it."Nah bro that got me rolling on the floor 😂
the bamboo lab p1p is a stripped down version of the X1 carbon but with the same speed! and almost half the price I bought one and WOW are they fast! one note, dont over lubricate them as they start slipping and the prints fail they are about $1100 cad and come in fast (to BC) also at the part where James tells him to get back to work and theres a moment of silence you can here the printer going
Imagine having this but in full auto... Next Hacksmith project?
Real quick what rarity is this
that's actually really cool
Very beautiful, from what I understand the functioning is the same as a mechanical QEV. Nice work guys
i like seeing the team the channel more personal and actually want to make things for fun
Cool idea but aren't all snowball launchers technically subsonic? 😆
Legal restrictions in Canada I guess.
Ok now you have to have a snowball fight with Mark Rober
"you know its a hacksmith project when it is a two handed weapon and it requires 2 people to hold it" This line is just elite
Maybe for a 2.0 version, replace some parts with plastic to lighten the weight.
It’s a rocket launcher class weapon anyways.
Might have an issue on structural integrity of the gun to hold up the pressure. But if there is anyone that can do something about it, it would these guys 😂
They should replace the Fortnite launcher with yours. I think your next project should be a mechanical T. rex like from the movies.
Or rework it in a way. It would be a rocket launcher at low pressure, and a high damage shotgun at high pressure.
That's fantastic you could use aluminum cans as sabo's to launch pretty much whatever you want out of that thing
You guys put so much dedication and a lot of resources into fun, and the results are amazing. Hope y'all can do this for a long time.
I have an idea. You could make Nero's Red Queen from Devil May Cry? Sick snowgun by the way!
Love your videos! Glad to see James back, but I’d love to see an update video on how he’s been doing!
I would love to see you make some more solid projectiles to see what this thing is really capable of. Perhaps out of delrin.
That is a HIGHLY ingenious valve and compression design. Great job, please be careful not to down play the dangerousness of such high pressure and highspeed projectiles. Thank you for hard work!!
Love the vids, Keep up the good work!!!
How did u watch whole vid already?????🤨
@@dripman2662 he didnt
@@Felixbz 💀
First
Fastest? Or did you mean the deadliest? Imagine having a snowball fight with this beast.
Seriously digging this style of editing. Keep up all the hard work!
You guys deserve your own skins after building this IRL! I’m truly impressed how well you replicated the in-game results!
mehhh firsttt
Hacksmith are really the type of people to light a fire with an ice launcher.
yall should make the fire and eletric staff from bo2 origins
Boludo nunca vi unas personas que construye cosas que hizo realidad. Estos tipos son unos malditos genios 👏👏👏👏👏 Saludos desde Argentina 🇦🇷
How fast can you reload this? It is purely amazing. Imagine a rapid fire one.
It's honestly incredible to me that y'all are very likely breaking records with these projects
imagine someone just busted down your door with that and robbed you
Try making black panther komoyo beads wth holograph & all the other features. GOOD LUCK 🤞
instead of ice they should shoot metal rounds that are also pointy
Mark Rober: Hold My Beer.
Dude that first shot was NOT a snowball, that was a friggin’ ice bullet.
