I don’t understand why he didn’t mount a minigun to that leg

No safety glasses, no gloves, I can see some ways this guy might have lost a leg.

Forced to do this because prosthetics cost an arm and a leg.

How can I tell he's American?

Oh. Because this is easier and cheaper than the wealthy paying taxes, or health care being a right.

First attempt of doing this didn't go so well, glad to see he figured it out by the second go round /s

Almost looked like he was going to lose a hand with the miter saw as well

FFS wear eye protection or you'll be carving an eye next.

If I had a fake leg I'd be making weird shit for it like this all day. Add some hidden knives, stash pockets, stun toes, some brass gears for Steampunk charm, etc.

His treatment of the saw makes me wonder how he ended up needing a prothesis to begin with...

Commercial prosthetics don't have a leg to stand on for this guy.

Nah, it's gonna be a birch to find parts. ;)

for a second there, I thought he was gonna rock the Seamus look

I don't know much about wood, but I have a vague feeling the mounting point going parallel to the grain isn't great, and there seems to be precious little material for load bearing around the top mounting point for the shock absorber

i mean.. awesome... but the way he nonchalantly swings that chainsaw at the start suggests how he lost the right leg in the first place.

It was cancer, actually. His stuff pops up on the Internet occasionally and I've looked into it before.

I don't wanna sound pro insurance but step one have thousands of dollars worth of woodshop equipment lying around and the skill to use them

All you need is 10-15 thousand dollars in tools and you too can save money!

1 year ago | Likes 100 Dislikes 4

Fortunately those tools are not single-use, and can be rented if you plan to only use them once.

1 year ago | Likes 4 Dislikes 0

Dude, ask a friend to borrow some tools, or put a post on your neighborhood Facebook page and there will be like 50 old guys with tools ready to help.

I was just thinking lmao. Dude has an entire shop.

Lathe <$500
Band saw <$300
Drill <$100
Chisels and bits <$100
Now he might have much better tools than that, but you could reproduce what he did for about $1k in tools. Given that a leg costs a lot more than that, I'd say it's a steal.

According to the German philosopher Till Lindemann, we're all living in America.
