@@ihopetheyhaveicees You are absolutely correct. When I saw him putting it in 90 degrees off kilter, I was like "WTF?!?", and then I realized those fingers probably belong to a millenial and I was born in the mid-sixties and then I channeled my inner Carl (from 'Sling Blade') and said to myself - "He's jussta boy..."
DO NOT run cables in direct contact with a wood screw (or bolt.) If there is the least jostling/vibration/movement, the screw will eventually cut through the insulation.
As an electrician I think people get too paranoid about strapping wires. How shaky is your house that thhn wire rubbing on smooth metal will cause failure of the insulator?
@@johnbeargrease6784 I wasn't talking about smooth metal. I was talking about threaded fasteners, particularly the threads. I was thinking about situations in close proximity to washers/dryers, dishwashers, central air blowers. I just wouldn't let a conductor rub against a sharp edge. Contact against smooth metal? Like you, I see no risk there either.
@Dargonhuman Not even close for an all purpose trick. Remember that wheel you could buy, and you would do these rowing style roll out push up things? Anyway it was $20, but you needed to already be in serious shape to do 1 rep.
Make an ‘envelope’ out of paper and tape, tape one edge of it to wall directly under the target, pull it open like a little bag, and drill away A lot less mess than the bottle trick, and both hands free…
Is it just me or are almost all of the ones this time either "how to use things as they were intended" or really freaking stupid? Good demo of what an expanding drywall anchor does inside your wall though.
@@KathrynsWorldWildfireTrackingnice try but I'm not falling for that one again. It's 2024, I pour a handful of cr2025 batteries in like everyone else.
@@staceyannjustus8245 it’s a type of hollow wall fixing called an Expandette plasterboard fixing (40kg rated). TIMCO make a similar fitting. While they are weight rated higher than standard cavity fixings, I’m not entirely sure that the plasterboard would hold so much weight.
That hammer with the nail holder is a great way to make sure you never drive a straight nail again, while taking more time for each of them. Brilliant! /s
For that copper pipe.. you shouldn’t strap a pipe with a strap of different material. It leads to corrosion.. that strap should have been copper instead of brass
Galvanic corrosion occurs when anodes and cathodes are touching, those brass Munsen rings are designed specifically to hold copper pipe. Some plumbers used to leave an iron nail on a copper pipe, to cause corrosion so they get future work fixing a leak.
That's exactly what I do which if I think about it probably explains people's exasperation at some of my comments because I have only ever watched these and rarely have the sound turned up.... my bad I guess

Ok guys, you didn't get it yet? I got it!!! He's showing up his skills, on how fast he can hammer the nails. He's incredibly skilled and fast, it requires years and years of training. Now, look how much work he can do for 30 seconds, can you? No you can't, but he can. I know people, that can do oil change on his car for 30 seconds. They are guru of skills.
I inherited about 150lbs of nails from my Grandfather. I do not use nails. I run screws in with an impact, so that I can knock out my project, and move to the next.
@neenhamilton3563 Hey thank you for that. I kept thinking I needed horse shoe nails trying to think of what to use and I just found some online at a local hardware store. So thank you 😊 again.
They are very great and smart. Especially the idea of the plastic bottle when drilling, please post full videos, for example, is that hammer for nailing available in the market or is it your own initiative? 🙏👍👍👍
A higher accolade than what? What is the accolade? Are you calling the RU-vid short an accolade, or are you implying that your comment is the accolade? Forgive me if I am missing something, but it certainly seems as if you ought to learn the definition of the word.
They sell those at like every place that sells hammers!😂😂 Harbor freight has like three or four different types like that. Lowe's I bet has half a dozen or more!
It becomes common sense after you learn it. What's wrong with more people learning or getting reminded of forgotten tricks? Either way, it's just a one minute free video. 😁✌
That's low voltage wire, it's not gonna kill anyone. But also, using a wing nut like that is the most useless thing I've ever seen. There is no reason you'd ever need to do that.
@@johntanner3461 I'm so triggered! Brass is for nautical applications - but a zinc-plated nail? A ZINC PLATED nail!? And what holds the screw in after vibrations? Shouldn't a wingnut be on the bottom?
Os jornalistas Brasileiros são em sua maioria agentes de influência. Um exemplo claro disso foi um vídeo onde o Henry Bugalho afirmou que ele e muitos de seus colegas (do meio universitário e acadêmico) recebem verbas "muito relevantes" para o seu trabalho.
Although many people here laugh that this fellow has just somehow discovered these techniques, the reality is there are many people in this world that have no clue how they would do these things. In this world where children learn to design a dog house using a computer but have never picked up a hammer and saw (!) (presumably because someone else is going to build it, and not god forbid, themselves), these videos are very useful as quick primers.
Why is it that everybody seems to have something negative to say about someone else's work, in THEIR videos on THEIR channel? I guess yall have a channel and doing better than they are. Right. Well, i appreciate this individuals content and the fact they are doing something productive and not criticizing others stuff. Lord have mercy this world needs to get a fkn life😵💫
I need to know where they got the copper pipe hangers. I'm overly familiar with copper split ring hangers but these are off the chart!!!! No threaded rod/ceiling plate needed!!!
It amazes me how drannith magistrate has not been banned at all. Its one of those cards that just doesnt interact well in a commander setting. And for anyone saying "just remove it", lemme ask you. If i play say... Snuff out. Magistrate owners will likely have some way to keep it on the board. Or countering the removal, or recurring it. You waste a turn trying to remove a thing thats preventing you from playing your commander with nothing to gain from it. Im tired of the bullsh*t excuse of dies to removal. Because its not good enough.
Everyone’s talking about how using a tool as this intended, isn’t a tip or a trick but quite frankly, I would rather them teach people how to properly use tools rather than the usual “life hack“ BS you see on the Internet
What kind of "tip" or (and I really hate the improper and overuse of this word) "hack" are they supposed to be showing with the screw anchor, copper pipe holder, 90° fasteners, and sledge handle wedge? I can see the "do it differently like this" aspect of the chain nails, wingnut wire holder, plastic bottle dust catcher, and I'll even be generous and add the nail holding hammer(though I'd only endorse the plastic bottle in certain limited applications and the purchase of the hammer if you feel the need for it), but whats so different about the others? Fwiw to those who aren't aware, screws are preferred over nails in most instances. They hold better than nails, and are MUCH easier to remove without causing any damage. 🤷♂️
I mean... some of it's good. The stuff where they just show a regular tool doing what it regularly does is good. This is probably the best tool hack video I've seen. That's not a high bar, but it's something...
Some of these are interesting techniques that can help you in a pinch. Idk some folks are extremely critical with this Short Clip. Every builder is different and has their speciality. Granted yes, there are those who over complicate a build just to justify their budget, and those who simplify for the best cost-effective route.
Half of these "tricks and tips" are just using products as they're meant to be used. They belong in a different video titled "cool products" or something. Then the other things, using materials in unexpected ways, would make up a true "tricks and tips" video.
( 1 ) why go to all that effort of knocking in 4 nails then bending them over to hold down one end of a chain when all you need is a smooth headed botl and nut or a screw and large washer ( 2 ) why use a wing nut to hold two cables in place when you can get proper twin cable clips ( 3 ) why waist your time cutting up a bottle drilling a hole in it to then drill a hole in the wall quickest and easiest way is to first start the hole with a smaller bit then continue with the correct sized bit you need needless to say you shouldnt need to do it thay as the silver bezzel on the end of the chuck is made to spin so you can pinch that bit to hold the drill steady while you start the hole ( 4 ) putting metal wedges in hammer handles to secure the handle to the hammer head has been around since they first invented hammers ( 5 ) dont give up your day job
The only one that may have relevance is the last one. All the rest are silly. It reminds me of stuff me and my friends would do in eighth grade with the tools we found in my grandfather‘s garage.
You don’t need a special hammer to set a nail. Put the nail in the claw with the head against the hammer right above the handle. One hit sets the nail. Flip the hammer and finish.
