All right it's time for the true test! The moment you've all been waiting for!
Good morning. Can I get a large dark roast?
3 2 1! Go!
Welcome to Make it Real. I'm your host the Hacksmith.
At Hacksmith Industries we take fictional ideas from comics movies and video games and make real
working prototypes using our engineering knowledge, as a way to inspire people
around the world to pursue science, technology, engineering, and math.
As many of you know we spent the past month building our very own Cybertuck.
With one major difference, we built it half scale.
To accomplish this was no small task and it cost us a lot of time, blood, sweat, and tears.
We persevered and prevailed despite each and every roadblock along the way.
Trust me there are more than a few.
Now without further ado
Hacksmith Industries is proud to present the world's first, Half Scale Cybertruck
Who are you?
WOAH!
Pretty cool right?
Let's talk about the specs.
This Cybertruck has all the
functionality of a regular truck while being half the size of the most popular
pickup truck in the United States, the F-150.
We did that by making it half the height, half the width and half the length of a standard F-150.
All while having greater capabilities and functionality than a full-size truck,
and it's half the size with 1/8 the weight.
By making the frame of the truck an exoskeleton,
we're able to do things normal pickup trucks can't.
The entire skin of the truck is made from thick three millimeter ultra hard stainless steel.
It's really hard. In fact we're gonna show you just how hard. Franz!
I mean Bogdan. Our lead designer here on the Half Scale Cybertruck.
He's got sledgehammer and he's gonna, he's gonna hit it go all out.
HaHa
Now how about the glass? Bogdan.
Are you sure?
Do it.
Look at that not even a blemish.
Tesla armored glass.
Now how about power? Now this thing has a tri-motor design just like its big brother.
In fact it produces around 600 foot-pounds of torque
which is 50% more torque than F-150 v8 five litre engine from 2020.
Now we could read you stats about power and torque all day but that's not really
our style so we put this truck the test.
As you can see power isn't something we're in short supply of. I'm not satisfied! Let's up the ante!
Three two one! Go!
We can weld that back on right?
If this car breaks down it needs a tow I'm just gonna leave it.
Well that didn't work.
Next!
Three two one! Go!
All right maybe that wasn't fair.
Mike switch it'll all wheel drive!
Go!
That's pretty impressive! I think we can go bigger!
Get outta here! Get outta here!
WOOOO!
It's life, how it is.
All right it's time for the true test the moment you've all been waiting for!
A fully load F-150 vs. the Half Scale Cybertruck
Let's do this!
THREE
TWO
ONE!
GO!
Okay, okay well.
It's not a really fair fight because that is a 5,000 pound truck and the Cybertruck
probably only weighs just over a thousand. That's basic physics so we're
gonna load up the back of the Cybertruck to make it a bit heavier and see what happens.
We need a bit more weight though.
The world's heaviest Thor's hammer which weighs 115 pounds and is made of tungsten!
All right so we got some weight in the back of the cyber truck let's do this again!
Let's get that chain tight, all right.
You guys ready?
THREE TWO ONE! GO!
OOOOH!
That's a win! That's a win!
YEAAAAH!
Look at this Half Scale Cybertruck for the win!
Half-scale Cybertruck 50% more torque than F-150.
Elon let us know when you're calling.
As you can see this little truck has a lot of power it'd be a shame to keep it all to ourselves.
Like my Uncle Ben used to say "With great power comes great responsibility".
Let's see how the Cybertruck is received out there in the real world.
Good morning can I a large dark roast with three milks?
What better way to test the Half Scale Cybertruck than in a half-scale village!
Not bad, if you guys want to see the complete engineering process that went
into building a Half Scale Cyber Truck in just over a month. Check out our
Youtube channel where you can see the four-part build series. Now we've had a
ton of fun building this Half Scale Cybertruck but there's still so much
more that we could upgrade. Maybe adding the truck bed cover, a winch in the front,
make it remote-controlled, and maybe even add a self driving module.
Either way you're gonna want to make sure you subscribe with notifications turned on
because you're not gonna want to miss this. And Elon if you're watching this
you're welcome to come and give it a spin any time. Until then I'll be waiting
for my pre-order of the real Cybertruck.

Half Scale Cybertruck video make sure you check out this video right here it's
a full Q&A posted on our vlog channel where we talk more about the engineering
that went into our Half Scale Cybertruck. Thanks for watching!
