@theHacksmith 6 років тому
*TOP QUESTIONS:* *-Why not use an induction coil?* Induction coils are not as efficient as resistance heating. You would need a power supply (+ the battery) the size of a microwave to produce 15kW of heat. Where as with resistive heating, you only need a battery pack to produce 15kW to get that much heat. *-Why isn't the tip red hot?* If the tip was red hot, it wouldn't penetrate at all. It would deform on impact. We can do it (just use a shorter bolt). *-What's the music at the beginning?* It's the Valve intro music in many games. *-Why didn't you use real rebar?* It's not very conductive because it is rusty and bumpy. Hard to make a good connection. That's why we used smooth steel rods. This is shown in the video. *-You should test this against the shield!* The shield would win ;-)

@TheWinjin 6 років тому
You know, as it is said at 20:11, even Hacksmith starts to appreciate the sheer force of bullets, now that he sees how hard it is to penetrate this skull with crowbar, or a rebar from a recurve crossbow, which actually fails to do so at 18:50, and the same happens to an actual crossbow, while the recurve crossbow is stronger than a usual one. There's a lot of videos on YT that show what a usual rifle ammo can do to medieval armor (not to speak of a usual human skull) So, what's OP is the Barrett 50, and even the usual rifles like Mosint-Nagant are OP, this here is video game stuff.

@Slingshotchannel 6 років тому
Like many weapons from games, the whole concept is seriously flawed - but you actually managed to get it working as intended. That is a major accomplishment and I salute you! Good job. Of course the crossbow could be improved by a built-in winch - then you could also increase the draw weight further. Rebar isn't a very good arrow material anyway as it isn't front heavy, so the "arrows" won't fly straight over a longer distance. They will start to tumble pretty soon. Plus, as you clearly demonstrated, it is a stupid idea to heat up your arrows as they will get butter soft. Much easier to make burning arrows with a bit of steel wool and sulfur, or make them ignite on impact.

I always thought that the rebar being red hot would mean it's very soft and would bend while shooting and either become a boomerang or blow up in shooter's face or turn into a donut under the crossbow's push and take off in a random direction. I am surprised you were able to get a steel rod that is both red hot and rigid enough to be shot from the crossbow and penetrate it's target. Also, just the fact you were able to make a sufficient portable power source is incredible enough. It's crazy how you made this clearly insane idea from HL2 into a working (albeit not practical) weapon. Kudos!

This has high implications for great gameplay concepts that could have been added to Half-Life 2's crossbow. •Toggling battery power on and off •Rebar bolts pinning human-sized enemies to surface only when cold. •Heating uses a warmup-timer, affecting the damage of a shot. •More heat = less damage, but a shot would create an area of burn/melt around a target which would enlarge and burn/melt faster the hotter it gets. •On hit, the area of burn/melt would sizzle/skin the surface at low heat, spark some flame at that would burn it over time/melt a gib off of it at medium, and create a scorching fire that would instantly cremate the target at maxium heat. This would also depend on whether the target is more likely to melt or burn first. •This would apply to props and surfaces as well, which could create areas of denial in certain of situations.

It looks like you need to apply an initial pressure to the bolt to start heating it. Perhaps having magnets that are actuated to help with the initial connection with the copper contacts.

Why the thing is heated up? Is from energy = heat for example earth godzilla emp harpoons make energy so godzilla well explode but the plan not work you see the earth goji is 300 meters emp harpoons put more energy felius goji cant make the energy to heat.

you probably have to use a metal wing in the end of the arrow or at least to conect heavy head to it so it will not spin in the flight in ways that you dont want
@erik4526 4 місяці тому
The reason for heating the bolt might be inspired from the the way an arrow wobbles for extra accuracy when shot from a bow. crossbow bolt are usually shorter and dont wobble but the lenght of the rebar is more simular to an arrow.

This is convenient too because the Hacksmith already looks like Gordon a little bit. Just give him glasses.

I grew up with Half-Life 2, and this has to be one, if not THE BEST prop/actual fucking weapon from the game I've ever seen. Thank you so much.
@red.psycho02 Рік тому
*Male citizen voice* "Good god!" That thing is crazy powerful and even has the potential to pin things to walls just like the in-game crossbow. Though as was shown at the end, the heated metal bolts aren't very effective, so you're pretty much good with just the drastically more powerful firing mechanism and unheated bolts.
@Freezorgium 3 роки тому
I absolutely love it, dude. Did you ever do anything extra with this weapon between then and now?

Next thing you know, he makes a HEV suit and makes a Resonance Cascade happen, fights off a crap ton of Headcrabs, Zombies, Aliens and then HECU troopers. Soon, he would take a portal to Xen, kill a testicle spider, and kill a giant flying alien baby. After that, he would be hired by Gman. A few years later, he would wake up in a train that arrives in City 17, meet Barney, Alyx, Kleiner, Eli, and Judith. Fight off Zombies, and Civil protection. He would then fight off more zombies with the help of Father Grigori, escape in the mines, and meet the combine. Then, he would get a buggy, kill some antlions, and drive on the costal road, while killing combines and antlions, and a few zombies. He would then get the power to control the antlions, head to a "high security prison," and fight off more combine with the help of some antlions. Soon he would meet up with Alyx again, and fight off more combine. Soon he would be betrayed by Judith, meet up with Kleiner again, and fight with the resistance to defeat the combine. He would then enter a giant ass building, kill more combine, and then meet Dr. Breen. Judith would help save him, Alyx and Eli. He would then go on and kill Dr. Breen. The end. Wait... *looks at episode 1 and episode 2*

but rebar when its not heated actualy worked better than normal arrow, and what if we make rebar with sharp tip? heated rebar looks like could only be used for lighting flammable things on fire

This needs revisiting with TUNGSTEN BOLT. It can easily get red-hot while staying much more rigid. Also it prob could have some emission-wavelength based controller to keep it "hot" but not "noodle hot". With some improvements this seems much more scary than most inventions xD
