How I turn two bolts into a POWERFUL tiny ROCKET LAUNCHER
zhlédnutí 4,2KPřed 4 lety
We had a bit of a pest problem at the monster shop this week. So I took a couple bolts and made a surprisingly powerful mini rocket launcher. I don't have a lathe so I ended up just using a drill along with an angle grinder and a couple files to shape everything. This thing was terrifying. So, needless to say, THIS IS DANGEROUS. Consider this your disclaimer. Make this at your own risk. This is...

Making A MIDI Stylophone out of GLASS!
zhlédnutí 32KPřed 4 lety
A keyboard (well.. stylophone) that looks like it's floating in air! That's what I'm making today with this circuit board on glass. The way it works is there are two groups of ten keys. Each key in a group is connected with a resistor, so that when the stylus touches a key and completes the circuit, it sends a different value to the analog pin on the arduino. The arduino takes that value and tu...

Toss a Coin to Your Witcher (Carnival Game Cover)
zhlédnutí 1,7KPřed 4 lety
Toss a coin to your Witcher! It was stuck in everyone's head. I couldn't escape it. But somewhere along the way I had the idea to turn the song into a carnival style game as an attempt to exorcize it from my mind. Using a pair of DC motors and some simple mechanisms to turn rotary motion to linear motion I ended up with a coin toss game where Geralt goes back and forth while his mouth opens and...

I like learning crafts. I grew up with a grandmonster that was always doing some kind of crafting. Sewing, quilting, knitting.. All that. And I like learning things so I'll be able to make whatever idea I can imagine. So last time I was at the craft store I saw a bunch of felt art and decided that I was going to learn how to make felt! So I bought a starter kit and some wool and here we are! Th...

And then I turned it into a lamp because turning things into lamps will make anything cooler. There were.. a few problems along the way. But I worked through them! It's always better to finish something that's "just okay" than trying to get something perfect an...

    It's a great video but you had the + and + clamps extremely close to each other! I don't think it will work if they touch! With all the electro forming I do I've never had any success with them shorting out. Probably not good for the power supply either.

    At time line 1:17 why the transparent sheet is used. This will act as a resist. Actually this part is to be exposed for the ferric chloride to eat away the metal. Please clarify will you remove the transparent sheet before etching.

    You are so amazing it’s like you have my same brain … it is hard when you feel like your creativity is gone because can not get motivated,, I have so many ideas but if I’m not in the right place I stop to think it’s too overwhelming and I am never going to complete this I lose my inner kid that would always say yeah I’m going to do this…. My A.D.D is not a problem but I am at times. I do make this lists and along the Day I end up in something that has a small part of number one on the list. I get nervous, and then I self sabotage …. Thank you I know I love the way I look at things around me and I don’t want to change it but I hate not having the joy of sharing my inspiration with others because I don’t get it DONE AND OUT THERE ❤
