Welcome to Hacksmith Engineering Research Campus (or HERC for short!)
2022 was a rough year across the board for me, the business, and the team -- but moving forward 2023 is looking bright!

One of our biggest projects yet... mark your calendars, it comes out on Saturday at 12PM EST!
If you can't wait, our youtube members get to see it right now!
@linusgsebastian
So do we (overall), and we don't have as many employees... the economics of my channel don't make sense.
Let's see if we survive the summer lol, can youtube channels file for bankruptcy?
Two years ago was
#teamtrees
where creators and audiences alike teamed up and raised 20 MILLION DOLLARS to plant 20 MILLION TREES!
This year's fundraising challenge? Raising 30 million to remove 30,000,000lbs of trash from our oceans! Check out

Thank you for keeping us active, showing us the power of

We finally have our own property to grow into! As you know I've taken a break from making videos, but rest assured I'm working day and night (oops) on turning this facility and property into something incredible! [2/3]
I still need to work on myself, but don't worry, my passion for this place still burns bright!
...and yes, we're going to start offering tours and workshops!

PS: The roof doesn't have H.E.R.C. painted on it... yet

I feel old. Mind you Tony Stark didn't get kidnapped and built his first Iron Man suit until 38, so like, I've still got time to turn Hacksmith Industries into a billion dollar company, right?

Next week's video -- the world's first PROTOSABER, the precursor to the lightsaber. This blade creates over 20kW of heat! To put that in perspective, that's almost half the mains power available to an average north american home! The equivalent of plugging in ~13 space heaters!
You know that split second moment after you crash where your brain screams f*ck and instantly regrets whatever choices lead you to this moment... and then the pain floods in, leading to panic and concern for the damage to your meatbag body?
THE WAIT IS OVER -- THEY'RE HERE!
The team is working around the clock packing, signing, and dispatching your Mini-Sabers as fast as we can. There's over 7000 orders to dispatch!
Keep an eye on your email for shipping confirmation with your tracking number!
Look who stopped by the new shop today!
We threw a few upgrades onto our

I'm not known as the safest maker out there but we always show tools -how- they're supposed to be used, especially dangerous ones. For a show aimed at kids, this lack of shop safety is absolutely appalling
@netflix
It was bad enough that it's a blatant rip off
@KidsInventStuff
We almost got robbed last night.
Some opportunistic "thief" rolls up in a Uhaul at midnight, checks locks, rings doorbell to make sure we're not there, proceeds to pick our trailer lock (nothing inside) and then gets caught by Bogdan and makes up an excuse of (1/2)
Grant was a incredible friend, mentor, and entrepreneur. I really wished it wasn't true. You will be forever missed 😢
This recent video essay explains his life, and how he made the world a better place by sharing hid knowledge.
If your wondering why there hasn't been a video in 3 weeks we've been working around the clock trying to finish the second powerloader arm!
A project of this scale really really isn't realistic for a YouTube channel, but we're doing it anyway, let's hope it doesn't bankrupt us!
TSA Agent: "What's in the bag?"
Me: "Uhh, a Captain America shield..."
TSA Agent: "No!"
Me: "Uhh, yeah."
TSA Agent: "But you guys look so serious!"
Me: "No, seriously!"
We’re launching something exclusive that we know you’ll love, including an elegant weapon for a more civilized age. That’s all we can say for now. Stay tuned.

"The HACKSMITH! There's something about watching a group of people makes seemingly sci-fi technology out of their garage.
@thehacksmith
go into a great level of detail and use all sorts of tools to make far-out functional creations."
A lot of fans are asking why sell the Proto-Saber? Well, I have a vision of building my version of Stark Industries. A place where together we can advance STEAM learning and build anything we can dream up together. This auction helps fund that dream!
Are you ready to be the next Iron Man? Watch our latest video on YouTube about E.D.I.T.H. glasses in real life, plus, we're giving away two pairs to two lucky viewers!

No he didn't get hurt, yes we added extra sound effects for dramatic effect.
"picking up a delivery"... literally with his hand in the cookie jar (opening the trailer door).
Looks like we need to get the Tesla coil security spider robot up and running on patrol... (2/2)
Stan Lee, the feisty writer, editor and publisher of Marvel Comics whose fantabulous but flawed creations made him a real-life superhero to comic-book lovers everywhere, died Monday at age 95. Here's how Hollywood and beyond are remembering his legacy:

2019 Stinger, but WHY have 2 out of 4 of my "security" lug nuts rusted out within less than 1.5 years? I thought you guys solved the rusting issues that plagued the company in the early 2000's?
