Better the Dune method than the Bear Grylls method.

Drinking my own sweat, definitely the kind of thing I'd want to rush the build on 😅 can't wait to see the final result!

[LeeWilsonJr]

The dune suits have two loops - one for drinking and one for cooling critical body areas to avoid overheating.

[engineeringsquirrel]

"Are you drinking your own pee?" is not something I thought I would've hear on this channel.

[JAGuy]

So film theory says it’s possible and now Hacksmith says let’s make it!

[kevinmcgregor]

Unless I am missing something, isn't this only collecting from his respiration? The condenser is closed off from the rest of the suit, so if anything, his sweat would eventually pool at his feet.

yo hacksmith, i was the guy that was at your place last week, sorry for interrupting your shoot, I just wanted to get a pic with the thor hammer but thanks for taking a picture with me

[Somethinghere]

Day 2 of asking hacksmith to make power armor from fallout

[WatchMakerr]

Im job hunting right now, and your videos keep my engineer brain going. Thank you for all of the joy i get from watching you guys.

[calebshort]

you shoud upgrade the suit to be cooling aswell as part of the still suits design is to keep the user cool in the desert

[jonathanpeters]

Love the cut to the suit into the dune background. Hilarious! 😂

[mRAHN]

I love one-day builds ! The editors definitely stepped up their game with the jump-cut segments 😆

[karolfortuna]

3:53 That's not a Stillsuit. That's a deflated Baymax 😂

[Pepesilvia]

Sweat helps you cool down in the heat. A still suit cannot let moisture out so it’s not allowing any cooling or dissipation of body heat. So how does the suit ensure you don’t overheat and die? If the suit in dune has some magical way to regulate body temp and cool you down, then you aren’t really sweating much. Seems like a better option is a respirator that catches moisture from breathing and a suit that keeps you from sweating.

Stillsuit water - it's Dune-liciously warm!

[alden]

In the books, the suit make use of capillary action and vacuum pumps in the heels, that are powered by walking. Not saying it's _more_ feasible, just explaining how they were described.

[KeithSkates]

Could this actually be viable tech for working in the desert? Along with some way to circulate the air from the cool side of the TEC inside the suit and a few small solar panels sewn into the shoulders... 🤔

[iandustrial]

am I the only one who noticed that this is basically just pulling the moisture out of the air that's OUTSIDE the suit and does almost nothing to collect the moisture INSIDE the suit. the only airflow comes from outside and there's nothing circulating the air inside.

[yobgodababua]

In the book, the leg and arm pads provide a pumping action that circulates moisture around the suit and eventually pushes it through some futuristic reverse-osmosis system.

[omnipresencetv]

the point of a still suit is it's a all in one solution the fabrinc design and tubing shapes all have to be kenetic functionial so pumping needs to be done by walking
