Tip Jar: www.paypal.me/lewayotte My son was rewarded for finishing all 1,000 site words, he wanted some Beyblade stuff and picked out this 2-pack starter kit from Amazon (amzn.to/2qejdQZ). And I told him that I'd make him an arena to play with them in. The "official" arena is suppose to be 10" in diameter but my lathe isn't big enough to handle that, so I made it a little smaller at 9.5". Thank...

Repairing a Globe Mount | How To
Переглядів 7 тис.7 років тому
This is a pretty simple project, nothing too fancy, except maybe the interesting way I used my miter saw. More or less, this video is about the philosophy of not throwing away good stuff, just because it broke. There is usually a way you can repair or fix what is broken... and if not, you might even be able to reclaim it for something else. Thank you for supporting me and my channel on Patreon!...

Let's Make a Quikrete Concrete Birdhouse | How To
Is the thing that screws on the bottom just a normal nut?
I'm looking for which to use to cut an iron fence. Torch or Angle Grinder. This shite is all I'm getting in the search results. Why is Google so useless. I'm going to BING!
Also, what is the On/Off/On Toggle for?
So each of the female RCA plugs have three wires? A red, green, and a black to a resistor? But these RCA plugs usually only have two spots to solder...
Most appropriate router planer sled for DIY I've seen. Simple, easy to build, cost effective, minimal storage space. May need to beef up the sled rails vertical to keep from sagging when using longer span with full-size router.
Never pull pieces backwards
That's a really good idea... I will absolutely be making one very soon
I watched the video again, and I did it. It's a great video
Всем американского СЧАСТЬЯ! Оставите войну. Зеленский настоящие зло во плоти. Нет войне
All you C***s have these woodworking tools, I wish someone would make a video using basic tools, like a circular saw, jigsaw ect
Too quick
This is what i've been looking for! Thanks for having this! I want to 3D print mine but this had given me the idea to use the CNC mill
What a great idea and much cheaper and customizable! I have some old steel bed frames in the attic that would be perfect to make a sled like this. Thanks!
Cool ....fun stuff.
cutting board! love it!
Great jig, but someone please get the man some horses!
Looks heavier than hell..
Is there a way to remove the markings from the glass?
Was getting annoying cos my PCB wouldnt come out. Before I snapped it I thought I's see if anyone else had done this. Thanks! I didnt even notice that small screw holding down the PCB! The replacement cable I used ended up being stranded cables not solid. Ended up being a nightmare to solder those small stranded wires. Though I not good at soldering either. Good news all working now with a braided sleeve cable! Bad news, the god awful cushion with the crappy plastic coating which disintegrates when you remove them!
where did you get your clamps and what brand are they ?
Nice to see you DIY and love the cat helper 😊
What kind of a router bit did you use? And would this work with a compact router?
Very clever implementation. I see you are on your garage floor which at least looks flat if not level. How much does the success of the jig depend on the floor being flat?
Very good
Super idea 👽👍
What but do u use?
Just watched this and it's not a bad quick solution.. however I am concerned as a content provider that many people follow and watch you should show good table saw safety practice and not use your hands so close to the blade there are too many people that totally disregard safety such as your self .. I pray you still have all your fingers and please use a push stick or gripper in future
Wish I would have seen this earlier!

Are you using a trim router?
awesome!
thank u! i really needed to see that. it's common sense but im glad u confirmed lol some of my paint cans don't always get closed right and i always regret not taking the time lol
Best jig I’ve seen I love the materials you used it looks a lot better than using wood. Looks like it slides a lot cleaner. Almost looks like a $1000 router sled!
Hey, I was wondering what type of resistors you used for this build, thanks!
I have this problem every year. I love bees personally, none of them ever really bother me but other people flip tf out. Gonna build one now. Just another awesome thing the Free Staters have done, thank you!
Nice jig, but wood is glued wron, I guess? Or it is just an example?
Wish I had seen you design 15 years ago.... Made my 1st sled totally out of wood and it sagged in the middle. Was able to use the wood though, in another project. Thumbs up guy !!!
I like it thanks, what bit did you use with the router, and what is the measurement from the edge of the pieces you cut to the slot? also, what are the dimensions of those pieces?
Very smart and easy! Glad i found something very easy to do! Thanks a bunch
Hi man, awesome video really helpful. Congrats!! What bit have you used in the router?
I made 7 of these in 2 days. I even did a couple where I spliced 2 colors together. For instance: black for the skeleton part. Gold & blue for the weave part. Obviously you'll end up with 3 pieces of cord when you rip it apart. But it looks awesome.
Creative and cheap idea
Çok pratik süper basit...
Love the silicone idea I am going to improve mine
Thanks for the video. How did you cut that cutting board without melting it? I used the same cutting board and it melted and created a big mess. What blade were you using?
Thanks for sharing! This is genius! I’m going to make one, myself.
You can tell a dude is young when he: - Works on hard surfaces without knee pads and/or - His knees don't buckle from a back spasm when he stands up
For those two cutting boards that glide across the angle irons, I noticed that you have to make slight cuts in the plastic so it can glide across. But does the cut have to be exactly the same as the thickness of angle irons for it to glide without slipping out? I'm wondering because the kerf of my blade is 1/8inch, but the thickness of the angle irons is 5/64. Hopefully this question makes sense
Built one yesterday! Thanks for the video!
Hey Cory, can I ask a question since you said you built this? For those two cutting boards that glide across the angle irons, I noticed that you have to make slight cuts in the plastic so it can glide across. But does the cut have to be exactly the same as the thickness of angle irons for it to glide without slipping out? I'm wondering because the kerf of my blade is 1/8inch, but the thickness of the angle irons is 5/64. Hopefully this question makes sense
Yes but how do you control out of level tolerance on the surface below the board?
