• 00:05:00 Adam Savage demonstrates how to drill a hole in a barrel using a vice, a drill bit, and a chisel. He finds that the hole is off by .7 inches, but he is able to correct the misalignment by gradually working through the hole with the big drill bit.
• 00:10:00 Adam Savage discusses the challenges of assembling the Hellboy prop, which includes drilling through multiple layers of metal. He is pleased with the overall accuracy of the project, and plans to use the same method for drilling the rest of the gun.
• 00:15:00 Adam Savage demonstrates how to make a gun part out of steel that hinges right, stops against the rest of the gun, and is lathe-turned to a round profile. He also Mill a slot in the middle part and silver solder it in place.
• 00:20:00 Adam Savage demonstrates how to mill a wooden grip for the Hellboy Samaritan prop using his own milling machine. The process is slightly counter-intuitive, but the end result is a precision-milled grip that is 1.32 inches wide.
• 00:25:00 In this video, Adam Savage shows how to make a rail for the front sight on the Samaritan prop from Hellboy. He first makes a chunk of 410,000-thick aluminum, flattens it, and starts shaping it into the rail.
• 00:30:00 In this video, Adam Savage shows how to cut a square piece of metal using a fly cutter and end mill. He then uses a marking fluid to mark the piece and finishes the edge on a mini bandsaw.
• 00:35:00 Adam Savage builds a replica of Hellboy's Samaritan prop from the movie "Hellboy." He takes meticulous care in crafting the replica, making sure it is fit perfectly into place.
• 00:40:00 In this video, Adam Savage shows how to create a chamfer on a barrel for a gun that was not originally designed to have one. First, he cuts out the lines that form the chamfer. Next, he uses a dremel to cut the bar down to the correct shape. Finally, he shapes the cutout to fit the barrel.
