Hey Guys! It's Mike from The Geek Pub. I'm a maker! From Woodworking to Electronics, I make weekend projects that you can make yourself! It's a learning experience for everyone.
I offer regular videos featuring woodworking, electronics, and metalworking that you can watch and then build yourself. Our How-To and learning videos are generally just a starting place for you to make your own design modifications and build them yourself! Mike dives into topics from woodworking, to metalworking, to home improvement. No project is too big or too small.
NOTICE: Some of our videos (such as our PVC air-powered series) can be extremely dangerous and require adult supervision. All projects are for informational purposes only. You assume all risks. Always wear eye protection.
If you build one of our projects, make a video and post it as a video response to our video! We want to see it, and we want our viewers to see it!

The secret for a good finish is a 60 teeth saw and doing the first cut 3mm
Great introduction video
can't get mine to work for the life of me! no screen on boot up. tried several hdmi cable's and three different monitors!
EPIC!
great looking station! thanks for sharing!
Excellent! Very helpful! My interest in learning electronics just increased sharply now that I got a taste of how to use an oscilloscope. Thank you!
This shit costs me more than than my body
I/O shield could be copied inti a proper one by copy it to a strap of Aluminum 0.8-1.0mm using a permanent fine liner for holes and border alignment and a Dremel tool or similar to provide also shielding ( aluminum is soft to work ) also the path of 3D printing if teplate are available for your MB for shielding you could use aluminum adhesive tale 5cm wide on the 3D print and cut it for holess with a surgical knife... On Amazon / AliExpress are a tom of MB for your purpose proven OK by LinusTech, ServeTheHome, etc usually with more sata 6-10, M.2, 4*2.5Gb network, etc. With CPU soldered (laptop cpu) or unsoldered ( socket)
شكرا جزيلا مهندس مايك لقد استفدت من قناتك متابع لك من السعوديه 🌹
wow never seen a rom chip programed before, learned something, awesome video.
This is great! It gives me the desire to take my old Atari video game system and make it into a video game console system somehow. I do have the aftermarket joysticks that are pretty big which would look nice in such a cabinet. Have to somehow create an access slot for game cartridge insertion, and a generic Atari cabinet artwork.
All the apostrophes in your captions turned into í.
This was one of the coolest videos I have ever seen on YouYube, period. What a heckuva build! Great craftsmanship. MDF is such a rewarding media when building. It's like making sawdust out of sawdust, lol.
This is exactly how i saw my dream lab but yeeeeaaaahhhhhh.
Such a nice build! Congratulations!
I think you should have used a cabneit that was bad and reviead it and used it but any great job
THE first computer I saw was in 1978 (during my elementary school years), and it was a PET 2001 with the chiclet keyboard and built-in Datasette. The next PETs I saw were in junior and high school, as my school district's computer labs were outfitted with PET 4016s and 4032s. That did not last, however, as the district began replacing them with Apple IIc computers during my senior year.
so you have a close up of the keyboard dongle but the screen is two feet away and out of focus... good job dude
that blue bnc in that pink bnc port *_Made me Moist!_*
Nice and Simple, Thank-you!
Hello Very good work, well explained. Where are you on this project today? Have you shared any resources regarding the implementation of your system? Thanks in advance
Thank you :)
Your-a arcade-man
Researching shutters for the bedroom I came across this video. I know it’s a few years old but Nice work. Too bad Rockler website limits the sizing to 24 inches wide. I guess they only do small windows. So I priced out 1 window (24 inches wide) and it was over $600. Wow
cool, do you have the measurements of the cabient parts ??? i really want to build one myself :D
Now do one for the tiny RP6502 clone.
Wow dude im sick and cant make it in today and i was think about making one of these and you guys actually explained everything so well its seems like its a easy thing to do
That device gives signal from 🚀🚀🚀 rockets too😂😂😂😂
2 questions. Out of curiosity, could I use 1/2 MDF? Only because the Home Depot by Me carries them in 2‘ x 4‘ boards which would fit in my mustang. My only concern is I know half inch MDF I would imagine would be sufficient enough for the cabinet itself, my issue is the French cleat. I was thinking about getting a thicker piece of wood specifically just for the French cleat. And my second question is, I noticed that when you put up the monitor, you have the back support so it doesn’t fall through the back. But I didn’t notice. How is the TV supported so it doesn’t fall forward.
Your attention to detail is inspirational!
5:30
I mean she/he's not wrong you definitely are one attractive men!
Wonderful memories watching this video. Thank you.
Shout out to Chuck, love ya big guy
10:06 i always kinda view a repair job as a display of your skill in a sort of artform its like, the organization of wires, how clean your fixes are, how smooth things run mechanically (when doing mechanical work like tape decks), how the thing overall runs, like new or kinda wonky etc being able to just fix something so it works and being able to fix something so it runs like new, or better than new, just really speaks volumes imo. really is a bit of an artform in its own way
Ditto
Good Job! Your guidance was extremely helpful!
I find the craftsmanship and attention to detail in these builds inspiring. It motivates me in my non-arcade projects. Thank you!
thank you so much for this video has been really helpful
9:10 - Can anyone tell me where to buy these speakers??
So I guess this channel is dead now?
Definitely on hiatus for a while. Try TimeRiftArcade. We're doing a lot over there.
@@TheGeekPub how are you doing btw Been a while since I looked here
I'm curious as to why MDF is used and not plywood? Wouldn't plywood be stronger and lighter?
You inverted the wires VCC and GND at 1:20. The red wire should be plugged into the right pin. At the end of the video you will see the correct wiring.
I have a retropi setup on a rpi4 8mb and seam to have fat fingered the admin Password so I am unable to properly run updates on my raspian Linux and desktop. What paths and files should I save to my 1TB hard drive before reinstalling raspian fresh? My idea is to copy them back again so I don't have to reinstall and reconfigure everything again.
I've been (over)thinking a build for my basement area - part ham shack, part electronics hobby work station, part work from home, part book shelf. I was already planning a second garage build like this for a workbench on lockable heavy casters but with an mdf top. Hadn't even considered it for inside use but now that I see yours - absolutely!!
great video
Nice (although I don't understand the PETSCII reference). Wish I could afford to order a custom made cabinet (or even a few of those machines in the shop!) Seems a solid and meticulous build. I've grown to love panels tilted back to almost horizontal (so your hands can rest on them) and if the monitor is also tilted back a bit more, creates a natural angle at which to stand up and play (for a teenager or adult). The angles here puts it somewhere in between sitting on a chair and standing up - many cabinets were made this way for bar stools and arched backs, ouch!
I have used the socket trick many a time in woodwork ..
The machinery and the energy used to produce a single shutter already pays for an entire set ready made from the shop. People definitely need to learn about basic cost X profit math
As a carpenter, and an electronics geek I truly love this content.
Did you release your software code to control the r2d2 using rpi?
