How to make a Blue Eyed Blonde shooter
zhlédnutí 337Před 9 lety
Blue Eyed Blonde shooter. A great little shooter that's layered and really looks good. All you need is a small sherry glass, a spoon, Banana Liquor and Blue Curacao. Pour the banana liquor in the sherry glass till its about one third of the way full, then pour the Irish Cream over the back of a spoon so it floats on the banana liquor until the glass is two thirds the way full. Then finally floa...

A quick and simple shot drink for parties and get togethers. All you need is a shot glass, a spoon, some Baileys, Archer's Peach Schnapps and some Grenadine. Half fill the shot glass with Archer's, slowly pour in the Baileys over the back of a spoon so it resembles a brain in a specimen jar and then add a few drops of Grenadine to resemble the blood. Let it settle for a short time and hand it o...

actually music is depressing. but thanks for the video
You are welcome.
Super
jig saw plate will scratch it
Do you need to cut with wood attached as well ?
Hi there. The wood is only there to keep the acrylic from vibrating as you cut it. Its much easier and has a smoother finish if you use the wood. So I recommend you do it exactly as in the video.
Thanks for sharing this video and information
Can you cut a circle shape with this jigsaw tool? Circle Diameter is 75 mm.
Yes you can, but you might want to cut a bigger circle first with a jig saw as shown, then use a Dremel or some sort of model maker small saw to finish off to the right size
from a comparison video on the plexi vs metal blade, it's probably better to use the metal blade. you'll get less of a burnt edge.
that music was super chillax loved it thanks
Horrible
was thinking the same thing, i make them at work without even needing a spoon for the irish cream to sit on top of the schnapps but this dude managed to make a mess of it doing it the rookie way 💀
What is that tool you used to cut the plexiglass?
jig saw
Sorry this is NOT a good way to do this so let me explain why …….. First of all the bottom shoe of the jig saw will have a tendency to scratch the plexi so at least tape it . You are better to tape around your design and then cut it. Mix a solution of Dawn dish soap and water and spray the area to lubricate is and keep the heat down and lastly , cut a little and back off then a little more and back off to keep the heat down. One last tip , title your video “ Five minute tutorial “. That’s all folks !
Is that 3mm or 4mm. I am wondering how floppy 120cm/4ft (x50cm) would be as I want it to be cheap and light as possible to make a #gerbilarium. Although I would need 4 50cm L-shaped metal corner uprights to slot each panel into, and I doubt they exist.
The point of this video is to show you that you can cut any thickness, even really thin sheets, as long as you support it with a backing board.
I paused the video after 4:43 - I see why the video quickly ends with no close-up LOL. #PigsEar
I dont understand your comment.
It's a demo, so not supposed to be perfect. He didn't spend extra time making the drawing clean or anything so idk why you'd expect the finished product to be exact. Also, it's a free vid why do so many people complain lol.
As a new homeowner, my wife and I want to skin our lanai's screened wall with acrylic panels. I watched your video to learn how to work with acrylic. Do you think drilling multiple screw holes along the edges of the panels would allow the panels to be held up with screws to the aluminum frame? We even thought we would use double-sided Flex tape between the aluminum beams and screw holes to create a softer contact and some gasket effect (hope I used that word correctly). We keep watching videos to get a sense of how much acrylic can take in stress--hanging from screw holes, or what will stick to them. If you have an opinion, thanks in advance for sharing.
4 or 5mm acrylic is surprisingly strong and will certainly do the job for you. What I do if I screw through acrylic is to use washers between screw head and acrylic to spread the pressure from the screw. It works very well for me.
Use clamps instead. If you want they are cheap and easily available e
Goosh the vid was def what i was looking for but the music was creeping me out lol
Will a rear rack for a chinese scooter fit a modern vespa?
Why is this "one minute tutorial" almost five minutes long?
To give people with nothing to do in their lives something to comment about
It was a fair question though, Jeff. LOL!
Is there a way to cut plexiglass shapes in the middle? Like if i wanted to cut a square in the center of the sheet?
Hi Anastasia, yes you can cut out a square easily too. This video I made shows you how to cut holes in Plexiglass. Cut four holes in the corner of the square you want to cut out and then use the jigsaw to cut between the four holes and you will have a square shaped hole in your plexiglass. czcams.com/video/QEKn9mCVoLY/video.html
Cute
Rising dowels could have helped
Did you find this neon sign on neon factory?
Is there another way without needing a piece of wood? Also what if i need to cut a window in the middlem
You can do it without the wood if you make sure you clamp the plexiglass to stop it vibrating. The wood is just to help revent plexiglass from vibrating and ruining the edge. If you want to cut a window or a hole in middle its quite simple, drill a hole thats just bigger than the size of saw blade, then start cutting from inside the hole. If you take care you shouldnt have any issues.
super helpful video, the music felt weird and like it didnt fit with the video lol. otherwise great video!
agree!! Excellent content, but the music is not helping. hehehe
Where's the next video please?
Was it possible to find worse back ground noise?
You will be pleased to hear I have changed the background music
Is the wood stopping it from fusing back together?
The wood is to stop the plexiglass from moving as you saw it. One of the main problems with cutting this type of material is it moving as you cut it and causing the cut to be innaccurate. The wood and the clamp holding the two pices tight prevents this.
So glad I have found your video. Thank you. Question: have you ever smoothed the edges with a torch?
I haven't on this one but I have before with a very hot electric heat torch.
Is there some important reason for that background "music?"
You will be pleased to hear I have changed the background music
Is there some important reason that you feel compelled to comment on a users music? Is there some reason you need to be fundamentally judgmental and nasty in general, while never creating your own content? Is there some reason you feel the need to find a solution to your problem online and not be grateful for the person who showed you?
