these were very helpful, i always hate it when i have to make it look like im cutting a 100 dollar bill but i dont actually want to cut it, thank you so much, saved me lots of money
Improvised anchor using plastic tube: really loose when he wiggles it. Soldering iron kickstand out of wire: yeah, that won't be in the way at all. Wire caddy: Sure, have sharp metal screw points sticking into it where you wind your wire. Wood joint: That's called a dado joint and has been used for hundreds, maybe thousands, of years. Nut from angle iron: great, you just spent half an hour reinventing the 25 cent wing nut.
Exactly, because these tools (no pun intended) don't actually work in the fields of woodwork, metalwork etc, all they do is think up crap like this. If you're a tradesperson and don't have what it takes to do the job and need to revert to doing this crap then quit because you're useless.
I'm not going to use most of these but the principles of thinking outside the box are solid. Like using the piece of downspout for organizer dividers. I would have tried taping cardboard together but this trick makes you think of long stock in the shape you need. Generalizable.
Make me happy to see these in RU-vid...Sad and wondering why there is no more shop class in schools as a norm anymore (T.T)...tyvm for the vids...much appreciated!!!
Don't wipe your glue... Let it dry as it lays. Once it has dried it comes off clean and easy with a sharp chisel. That way the glue doesn't prevent the wood grain from receiving stains or finishes.
Thank you for taking the time to post this. I enjoyed watching, even if I never use any of these ideas. By the way, to those who have nothing nice to say, I'm glad you are so above all of this.
Liked the simplest ideas best like the soldering iron rest but not fussed on the power cord reel idea....overengineered, takes up too much space and therefore could be awkward to store and if you had to buy components to make, it would not be cost effective.
Some of this was very hard to watch. We gave a home depot here and alot of things have been made to cancel the need to invent lots of these things and they are cheap if your time is valuable. Smart people try and get more done not create tools to get more done and actually get less done by spending to much being smart
Um, how big of a hole did you drill to fit that nut in? Are you sure that plastic tube expander will apply enough friction so that the impact wrench you're tightening it with doesn't make it spin out? That massive bolt will definitely be able to hold the bracket up. Just the bracket though.
the one with the plastic tube and hole, it's ironic how they went through all of that but yet it still wiggled after giving it the ol' wiggle/tug, where as if it was properly done .... It wouldn't have wiggled
Liked the clip and the idea for the soldering iron. I had a similar issue and used a bean can's top and a pair of scissors to cut the metal into shape. I used a pair of long nosed pliers to bend the whole bit into shape. Still works pretty good.
Just practical ideas some good some nay. The soldering iron holder sucks...it gets in the way. Makeshift molly bolt in wall nay...loosely holds and will fail later.
Ich warte bei dieser Art Videos immer darauf, dass tatsächlich mal was gezeigt wird, das man entweder a) wirklich mal brauchen kann, oder b) nicht für wenige Cents/Euros an jeder Ecke zu kaufen gibt. Wenn ich mal nach Sibirien auswandern sollte, und der nächste Baumarkt 400km entfernt ist, bin ich aber gerüstet.
My favorite was when he made a wing nut. I was like wow, that had to be about necessity. This guy must be out of gasoline to go to the hardware store. He has metal and a grinder, a bolt and no way to attach it to whatever that NASA or Elon Musk product was going to be. So he made a space age wing nut. That is off the charts. I mean invention at its finest. God bless that man, truly.
Actually that idea is very helpful to me. For some reason, wing nuts just aren't available in my area. There are too few shops selling those and even then they don't have the size I need. Obviously I can just use a normal nut but it is not as handy in some situations. Or I can just weld 2 pieces of metal to a nut and call it a day! :))))))
Erm... the money you spent on making a retractable extension lead... you could have just bought a retractable extension lead..... maybe even 2 of them.
LOL...I'm going to have to watch that again. Some went past me before I got what you were doing. I don't work in your field, but I can totally see how I can utilize some of what you did in mine. Way Cool Dude!!! Thanks
I agree with your first sentence. I wish that person had slowed down a bit and explained what and how much the measurements were. The way the video was made is that some things make no sense until later, then we are well past the point of interest. To the maker of this video WHAT'S THE BIG RUSH? You flip things around so fast it is impossible to follow what you are doing.
I am a data analyst and find these videos interesting, but I do not have any of this crap and tools laying around the house...I just buy finished goods when needed.
@@8eSix Right? Once in the bluest moon, you might see an interesting idea (the magnet and wrench idea), or at least, shitty execution that could be done more smartly. What gets me is how laborious some hacks are, just to get something truly shitty. Not this channel specifically, but the bottle caps and hot glue hacks come to mind.
Нет, ладно бы он циркуль из ножниц сделал, но для него судя по всему открытием является то, что если вещь с двумя дырками одной из них насадить на саморез, во вторую вставить маркер и всё это провернуть вокруг самореза, то получится круг
I made a latch you shove through these 2 cabinet doors to force them to stay shut because of mice or rats and sealed the bottom and top with extra wood strips so they couldn't get through. I used chopsticks and one of those wide load skinny boards someone threw over my fence. I do love being gifted used wood by evil people. Sand it down, good as new. Thing is, I can't remember all the cool things I see on youtube. Heck. I grabbed my hot glue gun and went to hot glue this corner of an exercise puzzle mat in the next room and when I got in there I forgot why I had my glue gun in hand in the first place. Unplugged it thoroughly disgusted with myself, then looked at the mat under my feet and remembered why so I plugged it back in. It's annoying. You're bright. Don't smoke and you'll stay bright. Good work! Love the wooden cube in a cube.
The next video is great. He takes water and extracts the oxygen so he can breathe. He just walks past all that lovely breathable air and jumps into the sea to do it 🤣
at video position 5:33, a person makes a cube 43X43, uses a forstner bit to drill in order to make a small one inside, is there someone can tell how deep to drill and the size of it? Tried from 33mm to 30mm, the little cube always comes out
@@TangoNevada The cable will get warm with enough load on it, since the cable are rolled up, there is nowhere for the heat to escape and the cable will combust. You should always pull out the full length of cable, even on the factory made ones.
