Hope you guys enjoy the journey. This was one of those "can it be done" concepts for us and the goal would be to find a buyer for the finished product or melt it down to re-use. We're crazy enough to make it, not crazy enough to waste that kinda money on something so ridiculous lol

6:25 When i worked as an injection mold operator (sorry if there is a better term in english for this) we made really shitty, cheapplastic pieces, and we had that problem all of the time. When i got to work each morning i would heat up the mold with a blowtorch to an internal temp of around 100 degrees celsius and use it like that. The mold was only around 50 degrees on the outside, so if you handled it quickly you would not get burned (the molds were around 0.5 - 1kg). The setup was so archaic that you could not use gloves or any other tools to handle the molds in a safer way. Fun times.

Regarding your sponsor Volta: ive bought 2 of their XL cables years back when you gyus had them on air the first time a few times. you've got a lot of trust build up about your sponsors and that was my last nudge that made me pull the trigger on them back then. well, their "livetime warranty" is a hoax pretty much. they discontinued their old XL cables in favor of new, better ones, which is fine, but I cant even get a new tip even if i wanted to pay for that because they just don't have any more left. so one of my cables is pretty much useless because i cant charge my laptop anymore because i got no working tip for it. their warranty is not as long as you live, but as long as the product lives, which was round about 2 years for me. that's basic wartrenty that's required here in Germany and i could have bought a cable for 1/3 the price and that would be still working now. i know from your WAN show that you take feedback rather seriously so here are my 2 cents on that sponsor. i don't like them because they pretty much scam you with a warranty that is non existent in the real world.

@--_DJ_-- 3 года назад

You have to read the fine print. I get that it is annoying though. I wouldn't go as far as to call it a scam, scummy business practice might be a better term. I had a quick look, it is clearly stated on their website that it only applies to products currently for sale on their website, not even in fine print.

@ttomkins4867 3 года назад

Damn, I was looking at changing out my Netdot ones with Volta. Netdot lie about their product claiming 9v/2A fast charging, but the cable/tips will only do 1A with micro-b and 500mA with usb-c (no clue what lightning is limited to) I bought three triple packs, not one of the combos will perform better. The work well for low power devices (eg. controllers) but are crap for everything else.

@Mallchad 3 года назад

@@ttomkins4867 NetDot was disappointing, the product works but the charging as you say was horrifically slow, much more problematically the magnetic connection is really weak and the slightest nudge will knock it out, hell, the weight of the cable can pull it out

@@louisvaught2495 Linus still had to pay for the casting, so there is some depreciation with the gold idea. And presumably Spot wouldn’t depreciate to $0 in a few months, but yes all and all it would be likely be more expensive than the gold idea.
