This is how the Doom soundtrack was made.

James, this is possibly the BEST GIFT I have ever received!!! I love it SO MUCH. You did such an incredible job…I'm...in awe. And ok - here’s the thing: I feel like we need to make a *massive* one of these together. I’m talking bonfire status. Let’s make it happen - I’ll maaaybe even consider giving you that welding class you were wondering about 😉⚡️🔥

When they say "this song is lit"
These guys mean it literally.

This guy's skills are literally on fire 🔥

great gift idea and excellent execution. very clean build, i love it!

We are so glad it made it! Quality Streets are the best Christmas Chocolates. You are so brave sending something welded to the EXPERT! It looked so good.
Happy Christmas Hacksmith!
-Ruth & Shawn

Why did that scene at the end feel like one of those scenes from apocalypse movies where the protagonist chills out in an abandoned Walmart and cooks beans. Loved it

This was so fun to watch! Happy holidays James! It was hilarious to watch you try out the portable sofa.

Can tiny salted metal rings or something be placed around the holes so that the flames have different colours which can be arranged according to the spectrum. It could be cool as well.

That beat was actually fire

I swear this engineering side of youtube has the best of the best

I love these kinds of simple videos on this channel. It's not too over the top, but still dosed with creativity and wholesome fun.

That is so cool!
I think it's my favorite Hacksmith project yet, and since this is relatively easier to make small scale for us normal people, I have a feeling a lot of viewers (including myself) will be inspired by this one.

I’ve built one similar to this, but began experiencing problems when using for extended periods of times because the tube heats up to incredible levels due to the flames, and will destroy the speakers. I would have gotten some copper tubing and done some light water cooling, or used some cheap heat pipes and air coolers near the speaker ends to keep the speakers cool. Doing this on the outside shouldn’t affect performance or acoustics.

Out of all your inventions… why do I want this one the most!!!

A grinder and paint, makes you the welder you ain't. - William Techumsah Sherman

James seemed surprised at how much fun he was having designing the art for that project.

Definitely my favorite Hacksmith invention for 2021. Awesome job!

Firstly, amazing job on this project! Secondly I'm a huge Hawkeye fan and with his series wrapped up I think it's the perfect time to see what you guys could come up with for trick arrows!!

I’m ngl idk if they have done this already cuz it’s been a while since I’ve been to the channel. But the hacksmith should totally make the iron man shield that took the blast from thanos’s power stone in infinity war

Make the prawn suit from subnautica, it would be so cool!

Your best video of 2021 dude , and cheapest . Please do more simple projects . I can see you had loads of fun . Merry Christmas everybody ❤

This is actually super cool. The way it goes out and relights actually works very well with it.

These are always amazing can’t wait to watch next to years

I think a possible revision of the design would be to install the speakers facing the same direction versus the mirrored direction, that way assuming the speakers are synced you would get the flame to interact with the treble and mids, while also getting a good sound. Keep up the awesome content hacksmith!

That is so cool - Especially at the end ! The PORTABLE COUCH and your RUBEN TUBE go together perfectly to make toasted Marshmallows!!

With a speaker at both ends, seems like the pressure waves will be combining, providing a modified wave form inside the tube. Especially when using the frequency generator, it almost looked like at some frequencies the waves were cancelling each other out.

I'm so ready for Christmas, and it looks like you guys are too!

Now that I really like. A great conversation piece. :-) Very cool!

Nicely done I knew how this was made by forcing the volume of the fire into a different shape and compressing it to a different way so it hits different

I think of all the santa gifts this one is the best

Good to see James still making us awesome builds

You should make mini versions of these with cool patterns and designs and whatnot and sell them on your merch page, they would prob sell really well, I know I would buy one lol

I love your projects and when you did the rocket slap, it was was so histaric

James talking about how he is bad at welding reminds me of something he said in the storm breaker building project, “ A grinder and paint makes me the welder I ain’t.”

Awww I was really hoping for jlaservideo to be in this years maker Xmas thing

My physics teacher did this last year, was pretty cool, his was a less a less elaborate setup but it showed the waveforms a lot more clearly. Was also about 2.5m long.

Would really love to see a bigger version! Reuben's tubes get better with size, in order to see a standing wave of the full frequency of human hearing (20-20000 hz) you would need to make it about 16 meters long, give or take a few meters depending on the pressure of the propane. But to see standing waves of 60hz, you'd just need to make it 5.5 meters long, so that's doable! It would look a lot cooler I bet.

Mad respect for the quality of your videos. Very top notch

As an audio engineer, I approve of this gift!

You are the same guy who made his dream come true! You inspire ordinary people like me!)
P.S. I am still intimidated by your scar on your arm after your baseball game...

16:08 The flames flatlined!

In the beginning, he was mesmerized by the fire dancing

that's such a cool idea and execution as always! I was curious from a science perspective if the 2 speaker setup directed towards each other in the tube may have cancelled out a clearer signal for the waveform? went to the comments thinking someone would have debated it but not? 😆 🤣

That song was fire 🔥 😎

The maker secret Santa is something I look forward to watching since it started.

This invention was amazing and mind blowing as always! Good job!

Y’all gotta get JLaser in this

Honestly this seems like something that could be added to the shop. Maybe it wouldn't be profitable but who knows, id pay like $200 for one with some Bose speakers in it or something. Would be really cool if it caught on but you guys were known for making the original brand! Could also just make a kit with no speakers included or cheaper ones that come with it but make room for speaker replacments.
And also, I'm sorry, he's allergic to WHAT!

"When in doubt, extinguish all fire" has to be one of my favourite instructions ever! I was brought here by the secret santa express and subbed and liked :-)

Love that you used the sofa at the end.

does anyone know what speakers he used?

Awesome gift!! Question: with both speakers on opposing sides, are they setup as stereo? Or is one setup for a inverse waveform to keep from cancelling each other out?

Another way to make the tube work is to have a balloon and the speaker next to it playing right into the balloon. This make the balloon vibrate to push the air molecules and the on turn push the flames. It’s more of a diy way to do it so you don’t have to have to have a special speaker.

I love how childish he is thank you for making my day

"A fire extinguisher on hand is always a good idea." I feel like that is true for MOST hacksmith videos

Little bit misleading. Thought you were going to make an instrument that uses fire, much like a tesla coil. Not just visualizer.

Used to build these as a kid. Lowkey been meaning to make another perfect for backyard bbqs haha

Yoooo the video quality is spot on!! Good job👍

My science teacher did this a few years ago in the 9th grade it was so cool it was better than this because the tube was like 6 feet long

Hi

This is brilliant. Love it.

I’m thrilled that you call it STEAM instead of just STEM.
The A is the most important word in the acronym. It all starts with ART. That’s where creativity starts.
Re-education is key here.
Thank you!

I must be a boomer, but what is this steam thing? Wasn't the point of Stem to separate practical skills from arts?

This literally gives to the meaning of "The fire is dancing" I know you mentioned this in the video, but that's cool!

All these gift are great examples of creation and good engineering, but I do gotta say hacksmith definitely knows how to engineer a cool style gift.

Of all the incredible things James has designed and built over the years, this is hands down my favourite.

I’d like to just say you’re my inspiration and the reason I’m pursuing engineering at university, thank you

I like the double flame 🔥🔥 when beats comes on 👍

This is the epitomy of creativity

When he was using the wave generator and messing with it when it stoped the timing in the flames going out his face and the noise that started playing was just perfect

Play through the fire and the flames on this... imagine. So fitting

That is awesome. For my electronics degree I made one for my capstone project, along with my own op-amp and signal generator.

This is awesome! Merry Christmas!🎄

Dude that beat was legit fire! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Wow. Now your mixtape can be *truly* FIRE

John Smith you need my training to became Jedi.

This is one of the coolest thing ive ever seen

Merry Christmas guys!! love your videos!

When you say "the drop it's firee" 🔥🔥:))

I started with your video at release and now I've finally watched all videos (3 hours later). And I warched some parts at 1.5 x speed for it to not take the entire evening.

This is probably the coolest I've thing seen so far!!!

This serie is AWESOME!!!

Merry Christmas Hacksmith team

Merry Christmas hope you have a hacktastic day

Dude that song was FIRE 🔥🔥🔥

The flame resonance is so cool

this is quite literally fire

He had a awesome chance of Rick roll

Hey dude love all of your teams work keep it up

This beat is fire, literally.

Have a jolly Christmas Hacksmith team!

I love how the fire has its own dancing style

0:41 "He"😂

This is on a whole other level James. Excalent

We need smore inventions like this.

You clearly made the absolutely perfect gift for her. Wow. I bet she uses this all the time.

Love the Iron Man desk toy, that scene in the movies was hilarious

That looks really cool.
