My name is Johan Pryra and I am on a mission to Make My Best Life. In my opinion the best way to improve yourself and the world around you is to take action, this will give you feedback (yes even when you fail) that you can learn from and it is this gained knowledge which allows you to become better. On my channel I am trying to capture and share this process as it happens in my life and have lots of fun along the way. It is my sincere hope that it will inspire and motivate people to do the same in their lives. I wish that everybody watching my videos will have fun, be entertained, and learn something.
I was so proud to see you make mention of Kim Warner and his craft. The guy is really skilled and can think outside of the box. I know him well and has also bought from him a little Lego-man for my son. He even make some that are half a meter tall. He will make them larger for you stil - all to order. The versatality of what he does with these things are endless. Picture this: A meter tall lego man (or girl) standing in the corner of your room, sitting on you bar counter - whatever, and the front chest section hinges open to reveal a little shooter drink cabinet, or a hidden small lockable safe compartment. Kim from Warner miniature woodies has made this. It's worth it! Enjoy!
Good job Johan, I have noticed that you did not make any measurements, practically on your hoop. Nonetheless you are a good father. I was also asked by my school since working in the school to help them with a hoop. I did not thing of your idea of a cylinder. Fortunately I had a basket ball hoop that needs to be reduced to size or netball one. Thanks for that creative thinking.
Nice video, if only more people in the world adopted this mentality of "try to fix it, not toss it away and get a new one". I come from a country where you have to fix it as there's no other way to replace. Anyway, I digress. My problem is I have a folding brace or spreader that fell off an aluminum A-frame ladder. It is on either side of the ladder and helps unfold/spread the ladder and locks in a horizontal position when the ladder is fully unfolded. Need to somehow reattach it with these oversized industrial rivets, just cannot find them. I guess another option would be a nut and bolt with a couple of washers. Maybe I'll do a video of it since I couldn't find one.
Great DIY! As a hobby welder I love videos like that, easy, lowtec, honest and in the end just helpfull. The worst experience are vids aka "homemade metal lathe, no tools required" starting with "Hello, first of all we fabricate all necessary parts on this brand-new CNC milling machine" ... ;) Keep going!
Nice Johan, feeling is mutual, however I just dont go around and sniff tools....that is why there is a glue section.... Need to educate you a bit my friend LOL. looking forward to your next Short. Not the ones that Marlene needs to wash, the ones you make, just in case their is a miss communication.
Most of the mechanical can crushers people build use rotary motion converted to linear motion. The arm connected to the crush head has to be able to move up/down or back/forth for this to work. Where you were holding the bar to prevent movement would be like the crushers people make using a cylinder for straight linear motion. I just built a motorized crusher and had to do the same thing you did. Try something, see what didn't work and what had to be changed. Then on to the next "doesn't work". Keep at it, the joy is in finally.getting everything to work and being able to say "I made that"
Thank you I really appreciate this message. I have decided to try a rotating mechanism next, as soon as I have all the materials I will try again. Thank you for watching.
Lovely, lovely garden. Well done. Hopefully my little garden gets to look green and lush and productive as yours. New member here. Greetings from Uganda.
the tool design is not bad but upside down. make the straight edge on the bottom with the angle of the tooth flat to the bottom. the slope of the blade can be towards the top, also instead of drilling the blade can be held within the handle with epoxy or glue, , have fun and get your lathe back to working,the cut was too narrow, add a second cut to make it a little wider, you were cutting into the piece ok, but the piece was held on the lathe with end grain which is not strong, when you cut through the screw area it weakened the holding power of the screws even more the tool then had a small catch which broke the screws out of the wood, splitting the end off and well... you see,
@@lensnow8957 agree with the bolt it is dangerous, however JP is part of a generation with people back in the days before the movie sequal, Back to the future,well maybe a couple more summer back than the movie, were we have no choise to think outside the box, so Agree the bolt is dangerous, however if you use 3 nuts, one nut to connect the bolts for the extension purpose, then you ensure you put one nut on each side of the the "connecting" nut. Then you can tighten the two extra nuts to the first nut on both sides and both off the nuts move in opposite direction and make it a perfect safe connection. Just remember to use two spanners, the correct size on the outer nuts and use a little bit of power/force to fasten them. Then you have a good temporary "joint" and none of the bolts will go nowhere. As both outer bolts will move both in opposite direction and force the middle bolt to go no where and make it much more safer. However if JP wants to have more fun, he can add a little bit of super glue to each side of each nut and to have more fun he can add a lot of super glue on the thread of both bolts.....Not recommended if you have not watch all the seguals of Back to the future...So first add the super glue, go and watch the entire sequel and after that the glue should be ready for the grinding, what do you think about this idea? 😁 Ok the super glue is an overkill...I wont be so mean to JP, JP please do not use super glue, use lock nut it's better😁😁😁 no not even lock nut, I love you to much. But will recommend the 3 nut method.
Thank you, to be honest I still have some compression problems with it but I can use it for spray painting just need to figure out where it is leaking air. But it was so worth it.
Great video well done i liked that you deticate it to your son . I make my channel to see me my daughter in when i am young when she is older. I will see all your videos greetings from Greece
Yes...learning is much quicker when whe see things frome another people...maybe people who leave another side of planet :) :) greetings from Poland 🇵🇱 :)
I know you get little detectors you can buy and use, have never heard of using a magnet. Do you just rub the magnet on the wood and feel for resistance? How does it work and how deep can it detect something?
Thank you for your comment. Do you have a link for the Russian guy I would love to watch his video, as I have mention before I still have lots to learn and would like another perspective.
Thank you for the advice. I still have much to learn, I don't even know what is a negative-rake blade, lol, but I will google it. Thank you for taking an interest and leaving a comment, I appreciate it.
Hi. I am building netball poles, soccer goal poles and tennis poles. Before i start i'd like some advices on starting with the Netball Ring. Which sizes of Round Tube, Round Bars to use
I got the following of an Austrailian Netball website, hope it helps. Happy making. The ring is 380mm in diameter and fitted with a net. The ring itself is 15mm thick and has a 150mm length connection to the post. The net is white cotton mesh or chain mesh, open at both ends. Both ring and net are part of the goal post.
