today's video is going to be either a day in the life or like a little mini weekend vlog I don't know but if you didn't hear my name secure today don't forget to subscribe and join the family before you leave girl okay so on today's agenda I planned it to if it does like if rain doesn't get in my way today let me put some moisturizer on my face girl so I plan to go to the car dealership and look at go to the Kia car dealership because I want a new car this year kind of like at the end of the year for like my Christmas presents to myself I use the blitz moisturizer really love that and I use this face oil because my face is dry but yeah I plan on going to the Kia car dealership Kia crane or whatever that's the closest one to me and then I may go to the other one but anyways I'm looking into two specific cars number one always is going to be my Range Rover hopefully things this year turn around a lot more than it has and I'm able to get it but if not I have a backup car and also there's so many different cars out there that literally I don't even know about and it's like I've been seeing something I'm like oh I like that I like that I like that so who knows what I'm gonna end up with by the end of the year but I plan on doing that with my mom today and I think she also want to go look at this new place she's moving and I also plan on going to back them out my car and put in my new if you see my last one I think I talked about it maybe but I got some new like car seat covers and a new steering wheel cover literally had it for at least four months now and I'm just not about to do something with it I'm not gonna do anything else to my car because like I said I'm getting a new one I may take my windows finally after like three four years but that's about it I'm gonna wait to do my whole little like tick tock car transformation because I was gonna do that with this one I'm gonna wait talking my new car and I also got braids for the first time yesterday I am extremely extremely tired I worked a whole 12-hour shift and then got off got home at 7 well got off it yeah anyways anyways I didn't get any sleep because once I got home I slept for like maybe two hours and had to go get my hair braided was there until that evening and if I didn't have to do stuff today I would be sleep all day but yeah definitely love my hair this is my first time ever having break I don't know why I have this on because I have on a shirt but this is my first time ever having my hair braided I had a braided ponytail with beads in like the sixth grade or something I don't know but literally she did such a great amazing wonderful job thank you Gabby again so cute she wanted me to do the 613 like pieces in there too we'll probably do that next time next time I think I'm gonna get I think it's called bohemian brains or something so yeah I'm really in love super cute I can't wait to do all of these hairstyles that I be seeing these girls doing but yeah I'm about to take prints out I'll probably grab something to eat on the way I'm actually having to redo a vlog it's like the sponsored portion of it because I wanted me to put something else on the screen so I'm waiting for that to finish downloading over here a little workstation why why why is it blinking I didn't know my I didn't know my thing um okay so it's shared successfully literally already have the video uploaded so I'm about to I guess I can show you what I do if you care if not skip past this shoot so let's go to manage videos well I really didn't even have to do that all right so I'm gonna go to create upload video select files it's gonna be a download I just titled it blog and from there it's going to upload and like I said I already have it uploaded so I'm going to go on here this is where I have it at it says five views and stuff because I sent it to the creator so I'm just gonna copy and paste literally the title I'm gonna copy and paste the description box all of that jazz into the other one and then I already got the of course thumbnail ready and yeah thank y'all so much for y'all comments also a little me shout out to y'all y'all been leaving the sweetest most nicest comments and everything when I ever when I get time I always kind of go through them so yeah if you see yourself comment down below but shout out to y'all definitely super sweet and thank you all okay so I'm gonna let this finish uploading and stuff and then once it upload I can do everything from my phone so I'm about to take printout right now because it's literally 141 and the freaking evening and I should have been got up but Flo decided she wanted to come visit me didn't even ask her to come and she just came baby so I gotta do it and I'm not really in the mood to deal with it not wearing shorts today let me get dressed okay so I'm back from walking Prince just went down don't mind my broken hair I'm gonna fix my thought this is my subscription but then I'm like don't you see come in pink so I think this is something that I ordered because of the tiktok it was like when you're in the shower you can use this and it's like a little box or something or your phone so that it doesn't get wet and depending on where you place it you can use it for the shower or if it's anything like a bowl bath yeah this is this is called the magic box I don't know I can find the tiktok I'll link it or put it up here but yeah it's literally this little thing you stick this side so it's up then you slip it in here like that and it literally sticks I'm probably gonna actually I'm gonna find it because I'm gonna do it and then see how good it works I got a pop socket on my phone didn't think about that so probably would have to take that off okay I can't worry about it this says from I was just about to call them this is my old apartment this my own charges and deposit and stuff carpet cleaning cleaning cost of paint drip paints painting amount refund they gave me $75 big my deposit was 250 and I got 75 I guess it's better than nothing but yeah I'm gonna go cash my check today so got that I got another coupon from Wayfair 10% off this is some furniture place got something from Arvis Bank don't care for them my blue cross that's one with I gotta pay that I be forgetting to pay that yeah I just got some sales ads I know I'm getting old because I actually look through the sales ads specifically target not target um Kroger's cuz they have some good sales and that's my grocery shop so I'm gonna stop by the bank deposit my little $75 I'm going to grab something to eat then I'm gonna head to my desk place I wanted to show you all these I went to the beauty supply store yesterday got the little scrunchie booty things I probably try them all for y'all when I get back but yeah they're only 999 happy and I got this little romper it was either 10 or 1299 got even small medium since I am dating my weight back some of my stuff is fitting a little too tight now I was 109 in the beginning of the year and now 123 so I feel like I've been doing a pretty good job I went in for the big bunny y'all saw me in but then I got edge control got edge wax I got them two clothing items got me another I got some more of these I'm actually gonna put these on right now and then make sure this video uploads once that upload I'm gonna head out and I'm not gonna bore y'all with any more stuff I'm doing at the house I'll see y'all when I'm in the car can I get a venti strawberry outside lemonade with no real strawberries venti strawberry inside with the name knowing anything else that'd be a car wash thank you about to clean out my car can't record too much like so many people out here but my seat is definitely there all it is it's supposed to start right in course I don't know if I'm gonna be able to go look at cars like I wanted to but I gotta hear me and go put my cars to come on for star rating it's 325 was starting right now for oh and then like alright so it's sprinkling so I need to hurry up and try to put these car seat covers on my car make your car smell amazing deep cover on seat and adjust until fully flush use the elastic band near top of the slide let's see if I'm duty I'm tucking a little seat thing in the back to keep it in place and then insert stabler behind the seats use elastic seat hook at the bottom of seat so the seat hook it's ratchet I just super cute we're gonna do my steering wheel cover now Jesus hot this one I like these they're like sturdy oh I like these are sturdier than just the actual cover but we'll see my steering wheel isn't that big I feel like I got a tiny one load it load load I might need some help okay I hate these okay let's go let's go let's go let's go these are too bad super cute I do wish that I thought the seat out I thought the seat covers covered the whole seat that's why I kind of got them because I wanted my whole seat to be covered but whatever I guess this will have to do until I get some new ones so we're gonna move to the other side and do the passenger seat I'm gonna go ahead and pop this open this is cherry scent and it smells amazing look strong though look strong white shoes I never wear tennis shoes and I'm stepping in this wet grass well somebody then just honking me hey so it also came with a cute little design I don't think it smells or anything it's just something cute to have in your little air vent or whatever I don't use the air vents that smell anyway because I feel like they don't do anything so it's like really sturdy too it's like heavy and there we go okay so I may or may not switch out my car covers floor covers but this is she I'm gonna go back to Dollar Tree and get some more these little rods so I can fix it because those came off but I like it jazz Ruby up a little bit my mama got some car seat covers to that I gotta put on fire but yeah super cute the pink this one is a little bit darker than this but I mean I guess it'll work and like I said I gotta go redo this because it was super cute when it was actually done properly so I did it just in time because it is raining as you can see her seats on a little before and then I gotta figure out how to do the backseat with these my mean I'm driving her car we got her car seat covers on and we at the duty supply store will take y'all in but they be kind of if you sometimes and you know if I mean want nobody to record broken they're trying to put on her car seat cover so she owe me a nail repair yeah and there's the beauty supply store that's over here by where they stay that's what I'm going to she need edge control a bunnet a rat tail comb and what is mask so yeah who about go in we gonna show y'all what we got after cuz they be tripping about recording fashion over who they had smaller would get it at the car dealership now and I found the car that I want it is over here you don't get out I don't see nobody coming so hopefully I got some time get your key just I put no mask on they need to stay away from me the car I want is a kid's finger it's right here I want right here this is a 2022 I'm gonna be like 2021 2020 but nah it's cute I like it this is just a freaking cute I am in love I want one with red seats they said they had one here but I don't know where is it because the black seats are cute but if I can get one in red that's what I want I also looked at this one this one is a 2021 Kia K5 LXS super cute I want a white or black car if I don't get white or black then I want that little gray looking finger that I showed you I love the cream seats this is cute I love the K5 also this is just so cute so much gadget I'm in a 2014 2014 and it smells so new everything so got the paper on it this is I don't have my camera it's in the car just to make this a little bit easier okay so I'm about to try on these pants that I got from the hair store I don't feel like pulling out my ring light or my big trap high so we don't work no they fit but you know I don't wear clothes until at least months later maybe even like a year later and I'm literally trying to get into like a hundred and forty pounds so I may need to go a size up they fit but a few more pounds they not gonna be able to fit you know look that's true but damn I kind of want to be able to wear them oh no cuz stuff like this I gotta find me a cute little shirt already got some bags thank you the little bootcut look make sure the vlog see me pretty good out my way for a knock you out cuz me you got fuckin beef today his legs boring all damn dang so when I was in Burlington with my mom today I bought him a new toy and he already got a donut but this donut is squeaky like all over can I talk yes you need it okay so obviously he's excited let me show y'all his other dog up first so here's his other one he got so this one is like soft all over and then the squeak is right here oops and the squeak is right there so that's the difference and I can't go to the store without obviously buying my son something even though he is bad tail surprise me I ain't squeaked it yet bitch I'm one of my customers what is that noise so this milk primer and stuff was sent to me to review for free and I ended up I got a few months ago I'm a primer girl my skin is dry I usually do like after I wash my face I'll use a my bliss moisturizer I think I talked about it before I really love that and it's really soft on my skin so I've already washed my face and stuff so this is going on like extremely smooth and with primers I do not be stingy especially if I don't use a moisturizer I don't think I put on moisturizer I wash my face so a thick layer works best for me because it keeps really smooth I'm going to do my eyebrows I just add a popsicle to anything cold I always have me this one from makeup revolution and then this lighter one from ELF to do a highlight I use the darker one on the top I usually do the bottom first but I messed up and use the wrong shade my edges I should have done my makeup because now you look a little ratchet but I'm still showing her how to do edges and edges with braids so I don't want to hold my big MK bag so I'm going to take this one I'm just wearing black jeans and then I may wear some I don't know what shoes but yeah I'm gonna take this because I don't want to take that big bulky thing and like I said I want flowers in town so we got the goods we're gonna put this up in here and then only thing I'm taking is gonna be lip gloss my phone my wallet and we go switch that out right now I want to take my extra camera camera battery I'm gonna take my AirPods of course make sure those are charged what I just say my wallet see can you remember nothing so this is the purse that I normally take on a regular this big one right here so I'm gonna get a mask so I'm gonna take a mask I haven't stepped up from MK yet I think I'm gonna buy me a Louis bag I've been eyeballing this certain Louis bag and well it's like the standard way back I've been eyeballing that and I've been eyeballing it's why sale bag I want the white sale bag but I need I would like to have a purse about this size on a regular basis or a little bigger so the white sale bag is like about this size maybe a little bit smaller so I don't know I might end up getting the white sale first we just gonna see because sometimes I like having a big bag and sometimes I don't in the Louis bag I want is like the big standard bag that everybody usually get for their first Louis bag so yeah I don't know we're gonna figure it out but with gloss AirPods wallet mask my phones over there I like to I'm gonna take this fabric spray because when I be going to public bathrooms and stuff sometimes they don't be smelling the best and it be making me about to throw up so I can't even pee because I'm smelling all this from everybody else and it's not even throw up so I'm gonna take that and I guess this all I don't really need nothing I'm gonna take this Lysol and that's it see I said I didn't want all this stuff and I got all this stuff in here that's funny you need cleanest window I can't get no I can't get no clear footage and then your window that already appeared so you see I'm trying to look out aquarium I didn't know this stuff was here it is it's probably I ain't posted Miami yet cuz I'm still editing it I like this one by the way bring the wine girl $10 I'm sorry did I roll my eyes out loud. Reasons. I'm a teacher. June, July, August. You need that one. Let's go. Okay. What's up, beaches? I believe in a mission at first sight. I just brought it up. You're the best. I'm pretty good. I'm pretty good. I'm pretty good. I'm pretty good. I'm pretty good. I'm pretty good. I'm pretty good. I'm pretty good. I'm pretty good. I'm pretty good. I'm pretty good. That's why that's the only reason people go is really for the shots. Let me take my glasses long because I look a little bit better without. You know, I got my glasses. We just left the winery. It's right here. I think we're about to go to the Abelos. I never went because the one downtown in Lutter Rock some girl who recorded that had a mouse up in there and I wasn't about to eat up in there with they got some ice so we're not doing it.  So I guess this is where like not low wolves come like if you're coming to Arkansas for the first time or something and want to like visit this is where y'all will go because this is a lot better than downtown Little Rock, I don't think I've ever been to Hot Springs. I think like I passed through all the time I never just stopped and been out here and I wasn't downtown either like when I came to Hot Springs it was like somebody else and left. Yes, all the zip rope courses on the 15th. Yeah, they go through all the same here, the go-karts. No, this is just the wax museum in here. Oh, that's our other businesses. Oh, okay. Yeah, you can watch them. Obama, Jim Carter, I don't know them. I went to one in Cali. You didn't even know them. Oh, actually. Oh, my God. Hope, John. Um, no, no. I don't got a shot glass to say Arkansas though. I'm gonna get this one just because for the experience is that I had a well time in Hot Springs. The little movie thing where make it feel real. Say she won, say she really won, say she tried to be the one. Calm down, take it slow, say the key.


Well, how do I say it, Ross? How do I say it? Okay. Okay. Oscar works. Oscar? Okay, so Oscar is, I feel like that. My name is like three letters. It's super easy to say. I don't know if we understand the hardships. Okay, so he's going to be talking about how we can use some open source databases rather than using the ones that Google or Amazon or Azure provide in our cloud platforms. So it's going to be a super interesting talk because he's trying to avoid vendor lock-in, which is kind of how we operate sometimes. So super excited to see this. All right, thanks. So yeah, Oscar and we're going to be talking about the different open source database services in the cloud and what alternatives you have there. So I'll start with a little bit of an introduction on what we do and who I am and we're going to talk about managed cloud services and the different kinds of databases that are available in the cloud. So for relational databases to distributed key volume stores and message streaming and such. And also finally also talking about typical data pipeline scenario that we see being used in a cloud using open source software. So I'm one of the founders of Ivan. He's been in cloud databases as a service company. Previously I was working as a database consultant mostly focusing on Postgres and other open source databases as well as a software architect designing large scalable systems for various enterprises. Open source software is something I've worked with for a long time since the nineties and created and mentioned a bunch of different open source tools mostly around databases and data management and things like that. A lot of them are related to Postgres but I've recently also been working with other technologies. When I started working on Linux I just looked out the first Linux distribution actually years which was this Deeper Seals plug and play Linux and that was in I think 94 or something and it really wasn't this plug and play as you would hope and unfortunately in a way I think open source tools are stealing that phase that there's really good technology there but it's also more of a set of tools to build something cool out of instead of like fully polished complete solution for you. So that's one of the reasons why we found a diamond where we tried to make it as easy as possible for everybody to benefit from the open source databases and all the work and innovation going into different open source technologies. So we run open source databases on five different public clubs. So AWS, Google, Cloud Engineer, Digital Ocean and App Cloud and make sure that our database are available and as easy as possible to use. Our team is based in Helsinki, Finland and Boston, US but we're going to be also launching a presence here in APEC later this year. Right now we run and operate seven different open source databases in seven different regions around the world. So it includes 23 in APEC and quite a few in Singapore. So when we look at managed cloud services this term means sometimes different things for different people but it's what we're trying to talk about right here is kind of the space between the infrastructure so the hardware and the virtual machines and the actual applications that job. So we're focusing on a layer that's sometimes called platform as a service or databases service where databases are made available for you over an API request or similar thing that just provides you with an access point to the database without having to install any database software or necessarily tune it at all. There are quite a few vendors in this space. There are the big cloud service providers AWS Google and Microsoft who have complete solutions that kind of cover all parts of this thing and we also have these other somewhat smaller smaller cloud infrastructure providers such as VisualOcean and UpCloud like this Brackspace would fall in some somewhere there who give you easy API access to genuvm and infrastructure resources but don't necessarily provide other higher level services. Then there's a bunch of players such as us so Ivan and there's Compose which is IBM's company nowadays and Heroku providing more development platforms and database management as a service. And this is of course I'm working on it but I think it's an interesting space to work on and we're also able to really provide open source services for a large number of end users. I didn't really touch on the SaaS layer and applications because I'm working on the layers below that but it's a lot of these SaaS applications aren't built on top of the PaaS and IAAS systems. I think what we've seen in of course our customer and the people we talk to but more generally in the industry is that pretty much nobody is spinning up new data centers for running databases or other services on premises anymore. There's of course a lot of them still in existence but the de facto deployment target for new systems is some kind of a cloud so I think AWS is easy to what is the first one that started moving here and that's where a lot of things are being deployed but in addition to just running VMs in the cloud we see more and more of users now starting to use services like AWS RDS or Google's Cloud SQL or Cloud Datas or similar data management systems in the cloud. A lot of these services are based on open source so there's both of us for example is available from quite a few different vendors but the cloud services are also introducing more and more new types of distributed databases that are proprietary and only available from one of these vendors so we look into the options available in different paradigms. When we look at open source databases and also proprietary databases we have a couple of options available for you when operating in the cloud so you can just get the VM resources and compute resources from the cloud and install everything there yourself which gives you full control on the system and it's probably something you need to do if you just want to take an existing database from on-premises and moving to the cloud but it's also going to still have you worry about maintenance and management of those systems so it's pretty resource-intensive and requires personnel to operate those systems. Sometimes that's not what you want to do you want to have your developers work on actual applications not on the infrastructure so that's why you would consider using a managed database provider which typically makes it a lot faster to spin up new instances. One of the benefits in using somebody else's database is managed by somebody else is that you also make it access to these cool proprietary databases that are developed by companies like AWS and Google and Microsoft where you get scalable huge systems but since we're talking about open source services not a given plus in this case it also has the possibility of locking you into a single provider. On the relational database side we have a number of open source databases like Polo2S which I'm most familiar with and of course my CEO MariaDB and all of these services are available as managed services from a large number of vendors so the big cloud providers as well as smaller players such as Asin and Kompos, Heroku, ClearDB and others other vendors. So if you're working with relational databases and as we just so in first and first talk 20 minutes ago these traditional relational databases such as Polo2S can get you pretty far so you probably don't really need to consider going for a huge like going for proprietary databases or even for things like Hadoop and Cassandra unless you have really tons and tons of data so if you're working with like single digit terabytes of data Polo2S is probably going to be just fine for most use cases and it's going to be a lot simpler than many of the other alternatives but if you want to or if you need to go to distributed key value types of databases and scale to hundreds of nodes you probably don't want to do that any more with Closedgress. I guess it's possible I don't know what's the largest Closedgress cluster up there probably something that Skype ran with ages ago but nowadays it looks like things like Cassandra are most commonly used in the open source space. Cassandra is a distributed key value database that's based on the dynamo paper that was operated by Amazon almost 10 years ago I believe which is also the basis for AWS DynamoDB service which is a really good database system but it's also totally proprietary to Amazon and if you put your data there you'll have complete vendor looking with Amazon no way out so that's where our recommendation would be to look into Cassandra or Scilla which is a re-implementation of Cassandra by a different team there are also a number of companies providing Cassandra and Scilla as fully managed services so if you're just worried about the complexity of setting up all of these you don't really have to go to proprietary services to make it easier for you you can also get it as a managed service from companies like Compose, Instacluster and another interesting type of database is these distributed relational databases which for a long time were only available internally for Google with their Spanner system which is I think was a pretty unique system as it allowed you to have a globally consistent relational database with pretty high availability guarantees that's required a lot of specialized hardware and software and a huge cluster that typically didn't really make sense to run in-house even if you had access to that kind of system nowadays there are also open source projects and companies working on implementing similar systems such as CoCoachDB which is I think partly based on closed-wits their servers are comfortable with both of these so you can use some of the familiar tooling with their software it's an interesting project that's been around for a couple of years now so if you're considering Spanner or other global relational systems like I suggest giving a look at the open source options here many of these are still in the works and require quite a bit of effort to run and manage but things are moving ahead there and it is also worth just having a look at these to make sure that you're not just very proprietary services as a defect solution for time series uses we have a bunch of cool open source projects nowadays I think the most interesting ones for myself are InfluxDB and TimeScaleDB InfluxDB is standalone NoSQL database system that allows you to efficiently store time series data into pretty compact form and also efficient queries on it it's been used a lot in things like system metrics monitoring and looking at your for example CPU graphs and all kinds of traditional operating system monitoring but nowadays it's finding more use cases also in other kinds of data TimeScale is an extension to Postgres again going to what Christopher talked about the extensibility of Postgres and how much how you can add new data types and new data models to Postgres so TimeScale is an extension to Postgres that allows you to benefit from the replication and HA and tooling around Postgres while running a compact time series data storage inside the database these are also available from as managed to have services from a couple of vendors and I think they're finding more and more use in different environments. On the proprietary cloud services side I'm not quite sure if there's anything that would exactly match TimeScale or InfluxDB there's of course Amazon's Redshift and DynamoDB that can be used in similar settings as well as a big table on Google but it's sort of taking a look at the time series databases and opens or side before you're selecting the solutions there Now, again as was mentioned in the previous talk Kafka is a robust and popular system for messaging streaming so no longer talking about just databases but how do you get your data to the database in the first place so Kafka originated from LinkedIn where they used it to ingest a lot of events and data from different sources and processing I think billions of events daily with this system Nowadays Kafka has an open source project and part of it were governed by a foundation so it's a real community project Kafka is used in a lot of different analytics scenarios where you get telemetry or event data from multiple sources and you have to collect it into a single place before processing it with different types of tools Kafka differs from message queue types of systems in that it doesn't really be quite delivery but it's a shared blog so producers are pending to the log and you have consumers reading from the log and you can have multiple instances and multiple types of consumers consuming from the same log so that allows you to really create efficient systems where you don't have to have to know the consumers of your data at the same point where you're starting to produce new data there Kafka is a pretty good alternative to some of the proprietary services such as Kinesis or PubSub that are commonly used in some of today's systems Kafka has also a bunch of advantages over Kinesis and PubSub if you have requirements around ordering of your data making sure that events come out in the same order as you put them into the stream in the first place also Kafka is a pretty fast moving system right now with more and more tooling being introduced to you every week or month so now we have things like KCQL which allow you to do SQL access directly to your Kafka stream and there's also a bunch of tools for connecting Kafka directly to Postgres or Elasticsearch or Isandra and other clusters pretty similar to what was also mentioned in the previous talk so as mentioned I want to give you just an overview of how different kinds of data pipelines are being developed nowadays with these open source tools so this is a graph that maps pretty directly to some of the use cases we've seen with our companies we work with so there's a number of different devices out there that are producing events and telemetry and different kinds of events for processing all of them are sent directly to a Kafka cluster which can be thousands of brokers so it's a pretty scalable system that allows you to handle billions of events a daily I think the largest ones we work with are handling something like 7 billion events every day and with Kafka you can create your consumers that are written in any language you like and just considering from Kafka for example reading metrics and pushing them to an influx DB instance for utilization of the data you can also use systems like Apache BE or Flink or similar systems to do some transformation on the data before you push it to for example a Cassandra cluster for long term storage and for analytics use cases Cassandra could be just as easily replaced by Postgres in some of the use cases but this is a pretty typical scenario we see when you have billions of events coming in you can also as mentioned use Kafka Connect which is interfacing inside Kafka that allows you to directly hook up Kafka to push events to external systems such as Elastic Search so you don't even have to run an application server or anything like that that would read from Kafka to make sure that the latest record for a key is automatically updated in Elastic Search or other systems this is something that allows you to produce billions of events just using open source systems I think I have a couple of minutes available for questions before the next talk any questions thank you


Hello internet. I've got two whole people.  Let me try. Oh five full people. Okay Let's see if that'll work hang on. Hello Okay, how's that? Can you guys kind of see? Oh, okay. Can someone comment if you can hear me, okay? Can you hear me? Okay? Maybe yay Hi, hey, okay. I'm assuming this means that you guys can actually hear me Okay, so sorry that this is not the best quality live stream and I am at 100% shouting I try to do it live from my Computer and it wouldn't work and I feel like I am seeing that it is going to be a choppy live And that is super frustrating But yeah, I have been having a really hard time getting the encoder going and all this junk to get the live stream going Frustrating so I'm doing it off my phone because I know how that works but today as you guys can see we are going to be unboxing and starting to build my Lego Saturn 5 it's too big to get into the picture right here. It is so you guys know that this is going I'm also trying to I'm also trying to put the Watch the comments. So sorry if I seem distracted. I'm not I am I Am trying to pay attention and I've got friends texting me to let me know that yes indeed it is live Okay, good because my Wi-Fi is sometimes not the best Okay, so the Lego Saturn 5 which you guys know is a real thing and a lot of you guys have been asking if I was Going to get one and build one well I ordered one and it's back ordered But then I met Chris at Space Fest this past weekend And he is so lovely and he gifted me a Lego Saturn 5 to build live and to share with you guys and I'm so excited about this So I think I said it's a very bad connection. I'm really sorry guys I don't I I need better internet, but I also need to figure out like how did the internet better All right So I'm gonna be unboxing it and I'm gonna be starting to do a little bit of the build today And I think I might save the main build at this point for when I have a better set up to be doing a live stream Because this is really frustrating to have no idea how choppy it is or if you guys can hear me So yes, I am Canadian Pete Pete is on the couch and I guarantee you as soon as he hears the crinkling bags He's gonna wander on over here. Okay, so we are gonna open up the Lego Saturn 5 So here's here's the box box box box box It's been a long day guys. I know it's only 3 p.m. And sorry. I'm starting super late But I had life stuff that I had to deal with It's been a long day already and I'm talking to myself. So this is gonna be real fun. All right So this kit I should show you guys the back of this box a little bit here It shows you kind of what you're getting into so you're getting into some, you know, we all know how the Saturn 5 worked So the Saturn 5 for those of you who for some reason are watching my live stream and don't really know what this channel is The Saturn 5 is the rocket that took Apollo to the moon It launched the first time Apollo 4 in 1967 in November of 67 and last flight was to launch Skylab in 73 It is still until SpaceX gets the Falcon Heavy or NASA gets the SLS going it is remains the the largest and most powerful rocket to ever launch and Okay, that was fun so As we build it, I'll be narrating kind of how the stages worked and how they all kind of came to be But first let's just unbox it and see what happens. And of course I should point out there are 1000 let's see 69 pieces so obviously it had to be 1969 I also feel like I should point out. I've built a few models in recent years, but it has been ooh like I want to say 25 years since I've built anything with Legos and I don't think I don't think I've ever actually done a Lego kit So not only is this oh my god, there's so much stuff in here So not only is it's gonna be like a lot of stuff for me to do it This is like I'm doing it live on the internet by myself. All right, I heard I Waiting for Pete to come over with the crinkling bags So I've heard excuse me that it's 12 bags.  It's just that there's a lot of it, right? And I feel like I don't know so when I built the Saturn 5 that I have it's a revel kit or a revel kit I I didn't think about painting it before I put it together And then I ended up with this big tube to paint and that was hard So like this is a little thing where I like kind of wished I'd known a little bit more of it model building before I just kind of started building a Saturn 5 So yeah Okay, so I'm I'm just reading I'm just reading some comments. Oh, here's talk.  Sorry guys.  Okay. We'll get through all of it. All right So what just said it would have been easier to do the end one, but the end one had like What was it 42 engines? Uh, whoa Okay, no, this is what building. Why are the building instructions this big? Is that really gonna be the building instructions like a 10 Pete's perking up guys Pete Pete might come up here and then we might Is it it's lagging what some of you guys are seeing it lagging?  I need to fix it. I know sorry guys Okay, so many bags So many bags This is a lot of Lego guys Okay, so maybe you should start with reading the book so I never thought That it would be interesting, but I've got 685 people Watching me read a book on the internet So yeah, let's try to let's try to open this here. Oh, I have scissors I brought scissors to be safe so that I wouldn't have to struggle with plastic on the internet All right, so Why is it this big? Okay, so It's this big because there's like a lot of information about the program and stuff in it Okay, and it's in French. So I'm from Canada La fusée s'est-il enceinte So I'm from Canada and I sort of got so used to seeing things bilingual and French and English It's sort of I forgot how much I love seeing things in Multiple languages El Viaje a la Luna. It's in Spanish. Oh awesome Gotta love it, huh? Okay, so there's information and stuff. Okay, so it's actually not that bad in terms of like instructions so I Love I'm gonna show you guys this because this is amazing It gives you it's like Ikea type instructions of how to build things know how the Ikea instructions wrong It's like here's a little Ikea man like don't do it alone. Oh, you'll be sad call a friend And it's pretty pretty great. This is little Lego man like open the box pour it out build it like Lego This is kind of amazing So you start with one and then you do number two. Oh There's a Lego bricks separator. This is way This is way more intense than the last time I played Legos actually the last time I played with Legos Keep getting so many things on my computer on The last time I played with Legos was actually at Google in Zurich And I built I should put a picture up its live and it's on my phone So I can't do it, but I um, oh wow Oh golly, this is gonna be this is gonna be fun um There's a Lego room one of the kitchens is A Lego room and I built a little Saturn five on the Lego wall And all the pictures on my Instagram if you guys want to go dig it up But it was kind of cute and it's sort of vaguely looks like a Saturn five enough that I was happy. All right ready Okay All right. Oh Okay, so So you guys know who haven't done this bags one through six are the first stage Is that right though first and second stage it looks like No first stage bag seven eight nine and ten are the second stage Bag eleven is the third stage and twelve is all the other stuff So if that's any indication to you guys how much of this rocket? Was fuel tanks and how much of the rocket was payload it was mostly fuel tanks and a very little bit of payload. All right.  All right, so let's get the bags I'm gonna start I think I'm gonna go we'll start with the first stage so I'm gonna take bags one through six it and We'll have to come back. We're gonna be doing this in segments guys if you missed If you missed the beginning of it because I just do not have time to do all that today Cuz like I'm working on some really cool blog and editing some really good videos for you guys Of all the astronauts. I met at Space Fest last weekend Some of you guys saw the live stream where I talked to Hamlet and Charlie Duke and I'm sad that I didn't get Al Warden because Al Warden is is a Very fun character. I really like Al Warden as a as a fun human Did not get him live, but I did talk to Mike Collins I did talk to Mike Collins and Did you ask him some very interesting questions? So I have a video going on a bit So that's gonna be fun and that's the video that I want to work on today For you guys. Um, so I'm not gonna be building this whole thing. I also don't really feel like talking to myself for four hours But we'll see we'll see how this goes. We'll see how this starts it. Okay, um So what I think is really funny about live streaming these things is like I never thought anybody would watch people Build things and read books on the internet Okay, I can't believe Pete's sleeping through this. This is so sad. This is so sad Okay, um bag number one so bag number one is Gonna be get this thing like that's kind of nutty Let's see, okay, let's see Okay, there we go, okay, so This is happening this is this the first stage. Yes, this is the first stage.  All right, I'm gonna start putting this together. Hang on. Hang on. We got to get we got to get Organized here He's sleeping through this there's so much stuff to try to eat Pete Come on. All he does is walk around and try to chew on everything a little weirdo. I don't know Anyone else out there have cats cats that like to just Mess with everything that you do. All right Okay, so we're starting with these two pieces and you put them together. I'm very confused All right, so these two things go together These two things. This is not exciting. These two things go together. Okay, and then there's one of these round gray pieces I have an alert going on my phone every 15 minutes. This is gonna be great Um, I forgot to turn that off. So it looks like they're actually it's not just what's interesting If this is looking like what I think it's looking like this is not Just an external build of the Saturn five. It's actually going into detail So I I'm still piecing it together literally and physically era figuratively Um It really looks like you're building the some sort of stand-in for the internal structure of the Saturn five Which is gonna kind of be crazy Keeps a very bad connection. That's really frustrating. Okay, so I've got four of not not these ones Wait, is it these ones? No, it's not these ones at least it's color-coded. I guess that helps sort of Sort of I don't know. Is it color coded? Yeah. No, okay. So we're looking for dark gray Wait, are we looking for dark gray? Isn't this awesome watching somebody talk to themselves on the internet guys? All right, where the oh wait, oh come on So I need all of these bits So many pieces Okay Let's try to move this so you guys can maybe see a little bit more what I'm actually doing. All right So here's the first piece Yeah, this is why I tried to do this off my laptop so we could get a proper view, but I could not I could not make the encoder work. I was just talking to myself for like 10 minutes on the internet Um, that was fun. So these and then four of these and then these With holes in them. Is it that do that that go together? Yes, that does okay. So four of these. All right Let's figure it out. Where's the other ones? Okay two three Oh four, okay. All right I'm on step three This is super exciting All right. All right. Um, okay Put these together So why wait, why and then put this together? Is that how that and then it goes like, yeah, that's that's odd Okay, I kind of see. Okay. So we're putting these little knobbly bits together For lack of a real term So how's everybody's day? Are you guys talking amongst yourself? Um Okay, really wish I could turn that alarm on my phone off, but it's gonna keep popping up. That's so annoying.  No, I did that right. Did I do that right? Yeah, I did that right. Okay I can't like this. Okay. And then you put it face down But you put it face down over the seam between these two things Am I doing this? I think I did this wrong. I think I already did this wrong. Should I already do this wrong? I don't like, oh wait, hang on. I'm so confused guys. I'm not good at this Did I take the right to the wrong pieces? Did I do the wrong pieces? Okay, I picked the wrong. Oh, wait. Oh, wait, I did this wrong.  Okay, it just goes between these things Hmm That seems odd. Am I doing this right? I can't tell if I'm doing this right. Oh wait, it has to be this way Nope How am I not how am I like not able to figure this out? What's amazing is these instructions are meant to be like for kids and I still can't figure it out Nope, that can't be right. It can't be right there either I think I did this wrong already. How did I do this wrong already? I'm very confused guys Uh fun times good times Internet Did I do this wrong? Oh, wait, I did I put this one upside down that's right. You're wrong. I think I put this one upside down Isn't this exciting? This is why I don't really understand people wanting to do live things or watch live things because it's like guys This is so boring like I Don't even have the patience for this and I'm the one doing it Um, I why can't I figure this out? Seriously should these there we go. There we go. Okay. Okay. I figured it out I'm such a yeah sometimes Is it more exciting when other people do this than when you do it yourself like is this Is this a thing? Is this why people like watching live fields? No, this can't be right This doesn't fit in this groove nook thing Oh my god I feel really really smart right now you guys This is the only way that I can go is with this one. No trust me this one The worst part is I'm on my phone. Yes, it is right. Thank you. I can't figure it out. Um Why won't this just fit the way I want it to just fit in together This is why I shouldn't do things on the internet by myself guys This is why Let's go. I'm trying to oh my god I'm trying to watch all the comments too a time lapse. I should have to go pro Ah, that was dumb. I should have done that I don't think these two things can actually go together Someone said let's science the beep out of this. I like that. I like that as a as a mantra. Okay. I honestly am I wish I had my phone Let's try to figure this out I put tonight. Am I using the wrong pieces for this? I know good luck reading the chat I can't do two things at once guys This is not gonna work out. This is not gonna work out so well All right okay Okay, and then these pieces. Okay These pieces have to go this way. Okay. Wait. Yep. There we go And this okay, so we just put together. I'm like afraid this is all gonna fall apart the bottom Of the rocket.  The best part is People are actually watching this. Pete is sleeping. I can't believe he is flavoring for this.  I need to find I'm gonna get someone to come help me with the final build of this. I think Okay, and then these pieces Four of these. Okay, and then we put these together and we make little tabletops tabletops Yeah, I'm gonna call these little tabletop pieces So I know I'm building a Saturn five guys All right Goes this way. Like I said, I keep seeing people yelling at me to organize things, but like I said guys I haven't done this in like my adult life. I'm not super Uh familiar with the right way to organize my lego pieces Especially when I also have to be mindful of talking to myself to stay entertaining somehow Ah, I'm super exciting and super fun. Okay um Yeah, okay and for These these one two three Oh, where's the other one? I wonder if this this is the only piece that I look at and feel like it makes any sense. Um All right So, um, I don't have any good Stories, I feel like I should have some good stories from Uh, space fest. I don't have anything coming off the top of my head. Let's see Let's see This is more slightly organized. Okay. All right. I don't do builds like this. I'm not a person who builds Models much you guys have seen like before that I have in my background. Um, that's what I do. That's all I do Okay, so out this way This bit goes on this bit goes on top Oh, this bit goes on top. Oh, there we go. And then this goes with the bits poking out. Okay Four of these four of these. Okay. How did I do this? This bit goes this way I'm more I kind of want to talk to someone from lego to be like, okay You have this thing. How do you turn it into lego blocks? Like how do you design all of these pieces? Because I feel like when I had lego's when I was a kid I never really had the kits. I always just had like the like like free range lego's the ones where you just like, um Build the things that you want and you just build little houses And I you know had little lego people and stuff that you could put in there But like it was never it was always like free range and I kind of loved that and I feel like it's gotta be So interesting to sit down and be like, all right, here's how we're going to put this massive piece of technology into lego form and then make it in a way that is very easy to build for the humans Like that's kind of interesting. I've never really thought through like the process of how that works Okay, and then we put these things on this thing On this thing. Yes, that's right Uh with the knobbly bits facing out. Okay. Uh, I just saw a quick question of who is my favorite person I met at space fest. Um At this point, I have been going to space fest for a very long time. This was my fourth um Yeah, so I I um Hadn't I think everyone that I really wanted to meet I'd already met before Uh, you know people that I was excited to see again though, um like You guys saw in the live stream like like dick gordon is just such a so much fun to to see and like I just kind of love seeing the astronauts again Yes, I feel like I want to break it Um, I just love just kind of seeing astronauts and especially like when they start to remember you Um, because you've been harassing them with weird questions over a number of years.  I just sort of like Hey That was always really fun and I always just really like kind of catching up space fest at this point because I've Like I said, I've gone to so many. Um, it's kind of like nerdy summer camp where I There are people that I just know that I see at space fest every year and it's really really fun to like Reconnect with those people and just kind of like have a drink and just catch up and figure out what's going on with what And then also there's always someone doing something super cool. Um And you're just like Hey, I want to work on this cool thing with you.  I love seeing kids that come and are sort of awestruck meeting astronauts. Um And you know, it's just it's just really fun to kind of be be there and sort of I broke it I didn't break it, but I'm just a lot of it. Um, yeah, so it's always it's always kind of fun It's uh, if anybody out there did see the live streamers curious I did a live stream from space fest last weekend. Um got a few astronauts to come say hello Um, they're all people that I've met before and that know me enough to know that I'm not like Just the psycho talking into myself on the phone. Um that I actually like do this So that was kind of fun So they're all people that I know and they're all people who I know I know would be okay to come talk Talk to me live on the internet and they were all really nice. They're all really nice guys. Um, okay, we're on to page 32 um, okay one of these things how many is this this is one One two three and four of these bits Yeah, okay One two three four. Okay. Um Okay, so this goes this way Let me try to see Okay, so it goes this way between these two Sneaky pee. I wonder I could give him treats and see if that brings him up. Um Um There we go. Okay, that goes that way and then needs to go here. So this looks like it's just embracing it To put it together. This is kind of huge. This is actually People keep I know I think I can't remember how Tall it says I think it's about this thing is at three feet high three feet tall. Um, yes I am taller than it. Thank you for everybody for asking. No, I'm not under three feet tall Um, but I honestly thought it was going to be bigger Given that it's three feet tall, but that's the one thing that I always find surprising with a Saturn 5 Um, there's one in Houston at the johnson space center There's one in uh, Kennedy in this Apollo Saturn center and there's one in huntsville and I haven't seen the one in huntsville But um, it's always amazing how Tall it is and I've never seen the one huntsville's upright. I've never seen it But I'm so excited to to to see that one upright I think it's actually the model that's upright. Um, because the real one was getting weather beaten and stuff, but uh Yeah, I I highly recommend anybody who's in an area in the area where they can't see it to go to a Saturn 5 Um, but it's I always find interesting that it's it's not as like Big as you think it would be but it's like tall. So yeah Um, that's fun. Okay. So I see I'm I'm seeing that I have a bad connection again. Sorry guys. I I don't know. I don't know. I'm not uh I don't know how to fix that. Okay, so we're putting these little knobbly bits together This is gonna so So I Will have to actually take a chance Uh, take some time either to actually look up and see So what this looks like and I wonder if they did this roughly to proportion I don't know. I'd have to look it up. But this is um So We're we're gonna be putting on A flat bit Okay, so here's the start of this the first stage and we're about to put on this flat bit And the flat bit looks like it's going to be separating the two tanks. So I think that's what that is. I think that's what's happening. Are there not Engines? Oh, there are engines. They must be coming at the end. Okay, so I wonder and I just don't know if it's going to be the case that like this is meant to be the Like the oxidizer tank and the other's a fuel or fuel and oxidizer. Um, yes, I see I see it's it's lagging guys I I can't fix that. I don't know how to fix that. Okay, so Um, I'm curious and I'm gonna have to look up whether or not that is to any kind of kill Oh, this thing is actually this is gonna get bigger because there's a skin going on it, isn't it? Yeah, this is definitely individual fuel tanks the attention to detail for a lego rocket. I am Kind of impressed with Off the bat. All right, let's put this together Um Is it the odd couple theme that's in my head right now is that what's in my head? I think that's what's in my head Right now. I don't know why I haven't I'm gonna why isn't this sticking stick stick go Come on. There we go. There we go. Okay. Um, I have the odd couple theme in my head That's so weird. I don't know why but That was a fun movie. Okay Concern it. Okay. Did I just Inadvertently Oh, I don't know what just happened. Okay Has that sorry guys Still figuring out the live stream thing. This is not the easiest. Uh I can't figure out Okay, this the other one went down Pete the internet's asking about you you want to come over I could lure him Go snap into place. Come on. You can do it. I believe in you Is it weird to talk to your lego siren 5? Is that not normal? Ah, there we go. All right. I fixed it. I think I fixed it I can't believe this is only going to be the internal structure if it looks like there's actually a skin on it That's the nuts. Okay. So we're good. We're good. That's a brown thing This goes this way and this goes in the middle. I'll lose my mind. Um, okay Now we got blue pieces. Okay. We need two of these blue pieces We put them on the opposite red pieces on over the What's that color gray over the gray pieces Okay, um Again, I won't do fit Okay, now we're taking two of these and two of these and putting them together likes. Oh, this is This is getting intense Guys, Pete's not dead. I'm gonna go get Pete sneak peek Pete Conrad This is what I do to lure my cat. Um, okay, let me put it over this way I kind of see what's going on here. Okay, put it this way and then And it goes this way Right It's all working. Okay, uh coffee break because this is an unsponsored video. Um Okay, two of these Two of these Two of these. Okay. So then these go together Like this Um, oh, is that the muppet song that's in my head now I I guess I can't actually be singing because I don't have rights to But now I have the song from the muppets in my head Uh, what are the names? Waldorf and Slater. I feel like they would love Watching this and leaving snarky comments. Those are the two guys in the box Oh, that wasn't half bad. Well, it wasn't half good either. Haha. I loved that show that show was amazing um This is what happens when you're talking to yourself guys I just I can't think of satisfied facts. Well, I'm trying to figure out how to build this Okay, this goes all the way down like this. Okay Okay, this is far more intense than I thought it was gonna be For so one person that I should tell you guys about I actually met him last year um Chuck I met him at space fest again this year and I was really pleased to see him again And um, I do I need to follow up with him and his his family I've met all of his his son and his nephew who were there with him and Like just lovely lovely family. Um So chuck built and I feel like I should be telling the story when we get to the upper stage chuck is this Nice just kind old guy. He's I think he's 89 or 90 now. Um Still Mentally was attacked. It's unbelievable. He had never worked in space before because you gotta remember when When everyone who worked on this so the first stage is built by Boeing of the Saturn 5 The second stage is built by North American aviation the third stage I believe I will need to double check this but my phone is being used to live stream I think the third stage was mcdonald douglas if I'm not remembering that wrong Um, don't quote me on that one. I will double check it for the next time I do this. Um, and then the The uh, the lunar module is built by grumman and then the command service module is built by north american And right and every one of these contractors had subcontractors. So that's how you get like loads upon loads of people working on I'm working on this one rocket. So chuck Had never worked in a in aerospace. He was working in aviation and he was tasked with building the The dual bulkhead of the second stage of the Saturn 5 and I'll talk about the dual bulkhead when I get to building it Um, and I also really really need to uh do an article about it That's one thing that I've been meaning to do for a year now But it was just this amazing thing to to meet this guy who remembers every detail about The temperature of the gas between the oxygen or the oxidizer and the uh, it was liquid oxygen liquid hydrogen in the second stage Um the exact temperature between differential between those two tanks that he had to figure out how to make them not explode I mean the what the amazing stuff that these guys were able to figure out um with With no background to it because there's that background didn't exist Um now i'm building a little cube Cube cube cube um Okay, so let's keep going. All right, and we are putting these things on it This is this is one of those things where I feel like okay, so let's we are The s4b was built by Mcdonald Douglas nailed it. I remembered that I remembered that I kind of remember things All right, I'm gonna use the lego prior to take this off I just want to show you guys a little bit of what's going into this So we're effectively building like a little like a like a node sorts to um to connect this piece to what I imagine is going to be Uh, I'd have to double check which one's on the bottom. I think liquid oxygen was on the bottom and the Um rp1 was up top in the first stage Um, we're building this little node thing and it's basically going to be like a block with things sticking off it But I think to make it 1,969 pieces they made it such that you have to put the little node together with like 50 million little pieces so That's how we ended up with such a high piece count for this thing And this is why I want to talk to someone at lego to understand how they make the decisions of how to build these things because like Like there are blocks in here that we're never going to see so why couldn't this just be one piece? I guess that would like take the fun out of building it And also make it easier for me to do this so that it's less time for you guys to watch me talk to myself in my kitchen Ah I keep taking this one apart. Yes. Also welcome to my kitchen. I have a giant island which is also like Pete's domain Um, I can't believe he's sleeping through this. I'm so sad uh sneak peak um Okay We got this thing and then we've got eight of these little knobbly bits little not see knobbly bits um Ah, I can't believe I forgot to set up the camera to livestream this or not to livestream to uh to go pro it Okay Wow, this is this is annoying Ah There we go Sorry, I got to focus and make sure I have these all in the right direction Um, because this is gonna get real messy real quick. Um, if I do it wrong Okay I'm trying not to sing anything that I don't have to be right for but I still have the song from the Muppets in my head I love that show God to be kidding. Why is it this? What oh I did this wrong. See I knew I had to focus to do this. Okay. We'll do this again There we go Pete Conrad He's so zonked out over there I thought for sure the crinkling bags would wake him up. This one This one This one And this one, okay So this I just had to build this out of oh wait, there's one more that goes on top This one. Okay. This was A lot of pieces like I don't know 25 pieces into this little knobbly bit the knobbly bit ooh Goes up here. Nope. I did that wrong. Did I do that wrong? Nope. I did that right Okay, nolly bit goes up there and then we have These things okay And four okay, it looks like a cannon on a ship right now I'm sort of having a hard time visualizing how exactly this is going to turn into a Saturn 5 but I'm so Super into it. All right Oh, we're building the we're we're adding another tank on it. Whoo. Okay. Um So we take this and we put these on it We put these I'm gonna move this over this way so we can actually see it. All right one two three Four, okay. Okay, and then we need four of these Yep, and four. I mean, I guess I understand why it's 14 and up. I don't know if you're oh wait. Yeah, okay I feel like four, I don't know I guess if you're a super nerd patience isn't really a problem But I just feel like if you'd given me this kit when I was under 14, I might have been like But it's a rocket so it's awesome, but it is very So we're putting together a thing with little rampi bits on it Yep, okay. This is right.  I'm gonna wake them up in half a second here guys. Um All right So one two three four more of these red pieces and four more of these little flat gray bits All right, so We put the gray bit on the red bit. I feel like my technical terms the gray bit On the red bit and four I could totally lure him with treats. Okay, and then they go On the gold bits, right? Wait, did I do that right? Yeah, there it is. Okay. Uh, we're good. We're good. We're good Sneak Pete, come here. He woke up. He woke up Come here You know, you want to come see what's going on over here, right? Oh my god. He's got so if anyone has a cat At there and when they wake up from a nap, like how do you just like Sleepy, I think it's adorable. He just did that to me.  All right. Um I have to focus I gotta focus. All right, so we're building another tank. Is it gonna be another tank? One two Two two There we go. Wait. Yeah, there we go two Pete he's looking at belly. Come here. The internet wants to see you because they think you're dead Come here, babes. All right four. Okay. So this is here and then this Connects these two pieces to give it strength It's now I really want to actually get into how the tank was actually built I don't know a whole lot about how the actual fuel tanks were built till I deal with the stresses of launch and stuff um Now I really want to figure it out because I doubt it was as simple as a cross piece of lego So I'll show you guys this a little bit a little bit closer So this is like the platform where the tank kind of sits and then it's got the walls Wall bits and then it's got the cross beam right here to keep it Together and then the little knobby bits on the side to keep this together and then there's another one I'll just pop that on right now. Uh another one going across this way. So that's what's giving it structure um From the lego version of things I am very curious to know because I just don't know Um, I don't know the details of how exactly it worked. Um How the tank had its own structure. I'm I don't know I gotta figure it out, but I uh, I'm excited I'm excited to see what it's gonna look like And I'm excited to figure out how the real one worked. Okay. So I've got to add that I've got uh He's looking his foot now I've got a whiteboard by my desk with all the things that I want to look into and I'm gonna have to add How the tanks were built? um How the tanks were built to that to-do list I just want to know all the things guys. Do you ever just want to know all the things? Okay one So those of you who came late, um, but just totally legit. Um, yes, I'm live streaming in parts my build, um All the lime in the coconuts. I'll just comment it. That's also my uh, I don't know why I've got muppets in mind right now, but uh Oh, I did this right. Oh, and then other here. Okay. Got it. Okay. I missed. Okay. I forgot what I was saying watching comments Yes, an upcoming fended space will deal with fuel tank construction Um, it's really really interesting because what we never think about with a rocket is like the stresses of launch Um, just the vibrations and the forces Um, even just the fact that like when you're accelerating that much and you have engine cutoff everything kind of relaxes And it starts again and it compresses as it's flying, right? Um, we don't really think about we think about how that works on the astronauts, right? Because the astronauts feel that you've all seen Apollo 13 that moment where uh, you know Jim Lovell slash Tom Hanks is like get ready for a little jolt and they jolt for and then they jolt right back Um, you know, we don't really think about we think about it from the astronauts perspective And how to kind of keep like the human factors element of a launch We don't really think about the tank structure like if the tank can't stand up to those forces It's bad news bears in the form of an explosion. So you don't want that Um, so tank construction is actually just really interesting because it it feeds into that Sorry, that's my alarm going off again guys All right I promise next time. Oh, I did that wrong Everyone's next time I will make sure to keep all the alarms off and silenced because I think that's what's kind of messing up some of the Streaming. All right. Um, putting the last round of these things on Two, okay, cool. I've got that and uh Back to this. Okay. We've got another one of these cross bits Another oh, no, wait. I did that wrong. Oh, there we go. Another one of these cross bits And another one of these little mini cross bits to keep the structure together Okay, and then the last bit I think I'm only going to be able to do two bags today guys It's hardly been an hour. Oh my god. I've been talking at myself for an hour. Okay, so we've got One of these one of these four of these I'll move this so you can see the table a little bit. Okay, so we put these Nope This way. Yeah, this way Okay, there we go. Okay. Yeah, they go this way This way There we go. Okay, and I put this round thing on top Wait, wait There we go. Put the round thing on top. Um And then we put that on top of this I have two extra. I need to go grab a bowl Because I have two tiny extra pieces. Okay. Um So then what? Oh What is this like is this structure or is this like I feel like there's In the lego version of this there's a cannon sticking out of the million Of the middle of the Saturn V first stage. Okay, so it goes over top of this one like Okay I'm really worried.  I'm not gonna line this up, right? So did I do that? Nope Wait, did I do this right? Hang on. I gotta figure out how to try to line it up, right? Uh, okay, isn't it my There we go. Yeah. Yay. No, I still didn't do that, right?  Oh my god I can't tell if this this is not Saturn. Okay, wait. I'm gonna Oh There wait, is that it's not centered? Okay, wait, I've got to center this. This is annoying. Okay here. It's centered Okay, that's centered And then it goes over the white Over white gray for gray. Okay Shoot, I did that. Did I do that wrong?  Okay Okay, there I made a monster this Have a very hard time seeing as a Saturn 5, but I also kind of see it. Okay. Uh, we're gonna do Awesome sauce Uh, the best part about this is that this is preserved forever on the internet Okay, so we're gonna do one more box or one more bag today Um, because then I have to go edit video for you guys. I'm gonna grab a bowl. Okay Pete Pete. Can you wake up? sneaky Pete Actually, no, I don't want to leave. Okay, so bag number two I cannot believe my cat right now Yes, bag number two someone just said must be the exterior. It's definitely the exterior. You can see if we're gonna get us a USA USA no, um What? Sorry, this has got real intense real quick. Okay I'm gonna separate these out into little sections Um someone I just saw a comment if I've appeared in the show impossible engineering Yes, I have a number of times. I think three or four episodes. Maybe only three Yeah, it's uh, I haven't actually seen the show though I have a couple dvds of it of my episodes that I haven't had chance to watch Because I find it really weird to watch me on tv And time to youtube for that matter. I really don't enjoy it. It's just so uncomfortable. Um But yeah, no, I have done that show. I'm also in uh naps on explain files I do a lot of interviews for that. There's a there's a handful of things that you'll see me in Um online or on tv a fair bit these days, but those are those are sort of the major two I keep seeing those ones popping up Um people asking, you know, is that me? Did they see me? And yes, it's me. Hello um Okay, just separating I'm just separating these things into They're similar pieces so I can easily identify them and also wow This is intense. This is mega intense Okay, hang on. Hang on. We're we're getting there. We're getting there. Just We're good. We're good. Hang on. Okay Finny bits Finny bits, okay There's that and these all go together okay these ones these ones These ones, okay um So it okay, uh I see what we're doing here hoping for yeah Helper cat helper cat. I don't okay. Pete is sleeping on the couch over there and he will not Wait, he woke up for a bit and he stared at me And I wish he would come and hang out more and I just saw a comment that I am a Lego noob like yeah guys. I haven't built lego The last time I remember building lego like actually remember building it I think I built a lego chicken coop of all things. I don't know why I don't know why but like I was five Maybe four, but I remember being really really young. Um Yeah, I built a lego chicken coop the last time I played at lego So like this is not a thing that I do ever and I will You guys know I'm only I'm doing this because because satin five and I love the satin five Next time I do this I have a beautiful satin five print by my friend Dave That I will get uh, I'm just gonna stick attack it. It's framed. I've got to stick attack it to my wall back here Um, I'm gonna put these ones over here because they're different grouping. Okay God so many these pieces are um, okay, so and Put this in a separate little pile Okay, so we start with two of these and we take Two of these and one of these and we So we take these two together All right, okay put them together Okay, do we only do that once? Yeah, okay for now because there's gonna be a lot of that. Okay and then One of these One of these Um, where's that weird shaped one one of these and one of these very Specifically shaped then I when I built when I built my lego chicken coop when I was five I don't remember why I feel like it was definitely a chicken coop Or maybe it was a house for chickens which is a chicken coop But I wouldn't have known that it was called a coop when I was five years old um I think it was just like I had blocks and I just built them into a thing that looked like to my five year old self A house. I mean there was no there was never anything quite this intense. I don't think I've ever in my life read Lego instructions. Okay, it goes like this All right, and then we have these Wait, hang on. Oh my god. This is so rad you guys We are building a okay. Wait, there we go Two of these okay, so we're putting this together.  There wait. Nope. I think it's not there we go three and then this side one two three It's starting to look a little bit like a sour five guys. Yay. Okay. Um Oh, wow, this is so intense. This is so intense. I am like kind of in love with this right now All right, it's starting to look like a Saturn five. It looks like it's gonna be A uh, rather sexy rocket in the end a nice smooth rocket I am excited to put this next to my other one the one that Pete has knocked over Um a million times and is at this point super glued together and badly broken So, yeah, it'll be fun. Okay. So one of these Okay, literally step 43 Take one of these. I did step 43. Okay step 43. All right one of these Two of these And a u and an s. Okay, so s And these two go on this side this side And this goes this way. I did this thing. I can't believe the attention on detail on this thing.  This is It's just this is in our stage. Okay one two three four Nope, this is upside down Five six. Okay. So it looks like this and you take one of these and then stick that to this Looks like this. Okay, and then this is what these do We're the small ones. Oh these ones. Okay, and then Oh, I see I get it. I'm on it I'm an it getter. Sorry guys. I had to focus for a second there. Hi Um Awesome. Okay This is pretty rad. This is actually kind of awesome. Okay.  Okay. Uh, how did we do this? Okay Did it really say us a four time one? These are like the little details what I love about building models and painting models like this is that you'd never really think about um You just don't Think about the details and like the design or the structure until you realize like Oh, that's that's different. Um Hang on. Do I do this right? Yep, we're good. Um, like there's a video that I if I was not live I would share a link to right now, but um So I'm gonna do these simultaneously. I gotta focus Um, when I built my My revel or rebel. I don't know how to pronounce it. Sorry. Um kit the Saturn five I did not notice No, this one is not that paint scheme. Um, I did not notice that it was the um Saturn 500 f paint scheme and not the flight Saturn five paint scheme And people pointed out to me after like once they saw it done I didn't notice it and it wasn't until I was painting it and sort of putting it together that And someone pointed out in the background like that's got a weird paint scheme And then I looked up seven five paint schemes and I was like that's That's so interesting that I never I never I how many pictures of seven fives if I looked at and that massive detail just Completely escaped me and then I learned about The seven 500 f and the shade tests and all this sort of pad check out things really really interesting history. Um That I would not have really I mean I would have come to it eventually because um, I come to all these these weird conclusions eventually, but um Yeah, it was just kind of fun to like have this weird excuse to dig into something that I'd never Really given a moment's thought all right, so We got three of these things and we need Oh, do you have letters on them? Here's the other a there should be one more a Ah a I found the a Okay, um These no problem is the black granite is very very easy to lose the small black pieces on all right, and Is that right? Oh, no, we're good. Okay. Um Sorry focusing focusing focusing. I can't multitask too well apparently We're building things. We're building things Sorry keeping an eye keeping keeping a bit of an eye on those comments as best I can Ah see Pete was supposed to be awake and magically grow thumbs and uh get a grasp on the english language to uh Help me field comments so that I would be able to focus on the build and have him feeding me questions That are streaming in from you guys So Pete is not pulling his white Uh, Pete Pete countered all right these okay, so then we've got Okay, one two, okay two three One two three one two three good. Okay, and then Three one two three One two three. Okay. Um, so these go on this side. So it's one of these Ah darn it um One of these one of these and these This side Then again and then this side And then one more time. Sorry I just saw someone say I think two hours is optimistic I never said I'd build it in two hours. I said I was calling it after two hours at two hours And probably before that I am calling it quits and I am going to then take a break and then come back to this another day That's definitely happening because I got I got stuff. I gotta do guys. All right. Um, okay One two one two one two Um one two one two. Okay. Um, oh and then one two three great. Okay So we do This yeah, okay, sorry. This is this is like not the most exciting thing. What can I talk about? Um, just trying to think of some entertaining fun facts about the seven five I don't know I don't know anything. I mean, I know lots of weird things but talk about Tucson Ah, what else happened in Tucson? Oh, no, I'm like totally blanking and trying to focus on getting this thing done Oh wait in this one. All right Tucson the other good thing about space fest and this is like Oh the weird thing that I love so much about this event It's at a resort in Tucson, which I really love because it means that you're stuck in a hotel with astronauts So that at the end of the day when everyone's tired um Everyone has to go to the same bar the same restaurant to have dinner and to hang out So then you end up where you just have to you know Casually chat with someone who's been in space while you're waiting for nachos I mean, it's just like it's such an interesting thing to sort of have that like Community feel with astronauts everywhere and it really is kind of amazing Um, so I will be talking about a little bit more detail Kind of what what it was like once I get to some of the videos about the stuff that I I've learned there. Um Mainly asking might call in some stuff Um, but yeah, it's if it happens again I'll be sure to tell all you guys about it because it's so worth going It is so much fun and just so awesome and just so so many amazing people both the astronauts and and Also just the the people that attend. I mean, it's just such a great community and like a wonderful like happy space Um, which is great. Who doesn't love happy spaces happy places? Okay We're almost almost done the second bag, which means we are almost done me talking to myself at my kitchen island All right, so then we have two of these Two of these two of these two of these Two of these and two of these all right next time. I'm officially bringing in uh Bringing in a helper to to keep me entertained Yes, I've no doesn't make a difference. Okay. Good Almost done almost done this one. We're good. We're good. We are making progress. This is great All right, and then these oh goes this way Ah should have done that first. Whoops This way pete wake your butt up. Okay. Oh wait and then Each one of these each one of these gets these Okay. Oh, I did this one wrong. Hang on. I have to move this one up Slightly. Okay. There we go. We are good. We are good. This is coming together. This is all good This is all good. All right. All right Wow, this is actually I'm amazed that this is starting to look a little bit like something Um Okay, I love that the instruction is just put them together basically All right, so we have our frankenstein monster right here and we're just gonna stick this on all of it So it goes Huh? Oh, I see what's going on with these little gun cannon things Oh my god, I'm really concerned that I'm just gonna smash this and like Yeah Right Right, there we go. Okay. That's not right. Okay. Wait has to go You ready? Darn it. Why is this not? Clicking maybe it doesn't Or maybe it does Did I do it? Did I do I? Totally not There There maybe What should we connect to something? I don't think this is at the right level. Oh wait Okay, there we go. That explains it. Okay Yeah I knew it. I knew that was gonna happen dog gone it All right I might have to call this one because I have to go pick up pieces. Hang on. Hang on guys Let's see Let's see Okay That's just what I was worried about that I would end up Knocking something off something else is Finally, okay That's it. I did that bit Right Okay, so that's how that goes wait This one goes up here, right? Yes Yeah, that's this one. Okay, so we're good. We're good We're working on it.  I couldn't get centered Okay. Okay. You ready?  Are they supposed to is it all supposed to click together or is it more instruction lego? I can't tell if it's meant to If it's meant to like I know I know I know. It's all right. There we go I think that's just I think it just does that I'm gonna have to revisit this one. I think This right? I'm very confused. Oh wait. Oh god.  Okay. Wait. Hang on. Hang on. Hang on Okay, I think I figured it out Oh, maybe not. I'm not totally sure right What wait, what? Okay, you're doing this, right?  Oh my god. Let's not let's not invoke my inability to curve Okay into This one. Hang on Hang on I'm figuring it out I'm over 14 and I can't figure this out guys. Nailed it. I got it. How is there a cat hair in there? There's cat hair everywhere in my house. Oh my god We're almost there. We're A moment that it snapped into place Okay, all right I'm really afraid of knocking this over and losing a tiny piece under the fridge or something That's why I'm being like really ginger about it. All right, so This is bags one and two of my lego Saturn five So you guys can sort of start to see how it's coming together starting to look like a rocket With a lot of structure Why is this one thing just insisting on not sticking down? Okay, so you can kind of see that starting to look like a rocket Uh, it has been 79 minutes I'm gonna stop because I have other things I gotta do. Um But yeah, I'm gonna I'm gonna remember the uh gopro next time and um I'm gonna pick this up in a couple days and we're gonna do probably another Two bags. I imagine there's a lot. There's 12 bags. We've done two. Um, it's been Almost an hour and a half. So We're gonna stop it there and we're gonna pick this up later So let me know in the comments you guys what you think how you feel about, uh, live builds because I this is This is all very new to me. Um What you think what do you think have you built this did you struggle as much as I did? Um, I will remind you that I'm also trying to talk to myself a lot to it Um, and I just saw a comment that we need a moderator. I will see who I can't wrangle into helping Um next time around so this is awesome I will be posting more videos of course regular videos every, uh Monday or Tuesday depending on My schedule sometimes I'm traveling can't make it sometimes I'm traveling and just completely crash in need a week to reboot Um, but most monday's regular videos about something mine some weird minutiae something fun in space white history Um, also random videos going up on fridays either the punk rocker moon stamper podcast with my friend and co-host jason mclellan Where we talk to people about their nerdery usually space Uh all kinds of space but sometimes not it's pretty fun. Um Chicken for that and I've got some other just kind of weird random, uh stuff brewing for you guys that i'm super excited to Be sharing traveling a lot this this summer, but it'll all be good. So if you do want to Uh, see me finish building the lego saturn five and get those weekly videos about all the minutiae of space history Again, I asked my calls about his underwear guys You want to stay tuned for that one? Um, and it wasn't weird. It was very educational Be sure to subscribe. You can also follow me on, uh, twitter and on instagram AST vintage space and on facebook amy shira title I have a dedicated author page follow me there for updates and that's about it Okay, thank you so much you guys for actually watching me Struggled to build lego's on the internet live. We will pick this up in a couple days I will let you guys know on um on the community page when i'll be doing it again And uh, that's about it. All right, and I will try to wrangle pete next time. I promise. Okay. Bye guys Awkward region to pick the finish button
