Welcome to my DIY channel! I make random projects here, ranging from cutting bottles to making infinity mirrors. My goal is to show DIY projects to give you a starting point for your own ideas. My projects won't always be perfect, but hopefully they will give you inspiration. I'm always open to advice so feel free to comment on my videos!
what if you use big diffused blocks of light, instead of tiny round LEDs? Would that create a faux valance window effect around the top of a small room? Or maybe make it look like an opaque white skylight? If the 2 way mirror is dome shaped, will it look like a dome skylight on the ceiling? What if the 1 way mirror in back is really two mirrors, leaning against eachother?
Would this make an effective privacy window, for night time, or would people still see in when the room lights are on? (with both mirrors being 2 way, so we can still see outside, of course). If they can still see inside, what if you stick a few x-mas lights in the middle of the glass, too? Is it private then?
I was just working to justify an 8 hour round trip next week to get to the nearest "intro to soldering" course because I didn't understand the need for additional flux. Thank you so much for this video and your teaching style - short, informative, with the perfect visual aids.
I was taught the solder sucker in high school, I always hated that because I was worried I'd cook the resistor or whatever. You know, because we were scavenging old electronics for good parts. This soldering wick blows my mind. Once it's hot enough it moves to the wick and you know it's hot enough. Mind shattered.
These boards always look so terrible and messy... I prefer to use some wires or component pins to get some cleaner tracks. I'm sure if it's already on the market, but it would have been a nice "semi-prof" solution if you could just buy rolls of thin copper layers with holes punched through it already. Just counting the holes, cut it off and align it over the holes before soldering. almost having a semi profesional looking PCB with little effort and costs that way.
1:49 I can't express how thankful I am ,I hated the perf boards for this exact reason cause every time I tried to make a turn the track used to get messed up
Hello.....This video really helped me. But towards the end of the video, you mentioned that the copper base could come off. But you didn't tell us how to compensate if that happens. That is what happened to me. Thanks!
Conclusion/ Summary: A proper bond between the board metal pin and the solder metal is crucial. 1) Using Flux we can remove the oxide layer between the metal pin which prevents proper bonding. Thereby achieving proper bonding.
