Patrons get the screaming cut tomorrow
I was wondering who would be doing that voiceover and was very surprised at the reveal! Awesome
SQUEEE! SO HAPPY!!
oh my god how are your vocal chords mate ahaha. im 21 and that would put me out for a week.
I think the only fair thing to do now is to set it up similar to a chess tournament. Round robin to start, where each line battles every other line twice. 1 point for the winner, 0 for the loser. To possibly cancel out any weedeater bias, they fight from both weedeaters; round 1 from the left, round 2 from the right. After the round robin round, you advance the top half of the field into a bracket where they battle for 5 rounds in each bracket; first to 3 wins and advances to the finals. Finals is a first to 5 for the win.
Can we take a second to appreciate that Destin not only creating a whole list of videos with breakdowns, behind the scenes, and resources for us to watch...he also signs off the description with, "Warm Regards, Destin"? I love the effort that goes into your work and appreciate this kind of content so much. Thank you.
His integrity is infectious.
That dedication and sincerity and just being a totally down to earth and relatable guy who is passionate about learning and teaching... with just a dash of crazy. That is why I'm a patron.
I think you guys created a new sport. If marbles can have their own Olympics then so can weed eaters
We need more Jeremey, his phrases are amazing
He has a CZcams channel linked in the description! I’m going to check his stuff out after I watch this hour long version (the four+ hour one is a little long for me lol)
I love watching Destin for over an hour lol
I am studying material science right now so this is super cool concept, and I kinda want to see this become an actual competition, like have people make and enter their own weed eater lines designed specifically for this.
There is a fan showdown on Major Hardware's channel. He pits different 3D printed PC fans submitted by viewers to see which is more efficient while measuring sound and other neat stuff, you might find it interesting as well.
I've got family in Huntsville. My great uncle worked at IBM in the 60s & 70s and his son, my moms cousin, was a submariner for his entire career in the Navy. That's crazy.
Thank you, Destin. You're content is unmatched on CZcams. I'd venture to say it's better than most of what's on TV, too. 👍
venture? 100% it's better than 98% of TV!
For me, this matches, maybe even surpasses, Myth Busters.
Y'know what I want to know? I want to know how companies that make weedeater string test it...what do THEY think is important? Do they have neat testing setups like the tire companies use for testing tire endurance? Have you tried to get in touch with them? If you're lucky maybe you could film their test setup in high speed too...it'd be a neat comparison with your own.
I would think that the most important thing to them is the bottom line: what they can make for the cheapest and sell for the most. That’s generally how companies operate.
26:47 that belly laugh was so good.
Destin, we need a March madness weed eater wars.
What intrigued me about your video was that the professional weed eater lines (the crossfire, stihl green line, and the husky titanium force) all had more “noodleing” my hypothesis is that the professional lines have to have more flex because you want durability around hard objects eg: trees and houses. It’s all about economics on these things and the more line you save the more money in your pocket. The downfall of the stiffened core lines is that they do not achieve a cleaner cut that is expected when maintaining properties as a professional. They are used in brush cutting applications. I also noticed that when the crossfire line broke, it was a tear at the base of the head. That was more of a head problem than a line problem. There are many different professional products that combat line tear at base like the echo speed feed 400 heads. It would be really cool if you could continue the lawn equipment series and maybe get it touch with the guys at scag mowers or walker mowers and do a video on the incredible engineering of a commercial mower deck. I love your vids and this one was especially amazing!
I also noticed that some lines appeared to be thicker than others, most line is available in multiple diameters so I wonder if they kept it constant across all the lines tested.
@@mavericktn999 the only problem with thicker line is that it’s very brittle, I’m surprised that it didn’t break first.
Destin's life is what winning looks like.... To answer his question.
Hmm. Destin says "We were just having fun in the garage and ended up learning something."
Isn't that the entire reason it's called "Smarter Every Day?"
"Give my man a drink of water and let's get back in it." 😂
I am still looking forward to more of the Supersonic Baseball Cannon... or as I like to call it, The Alabama Artillery
I LOL'ed at that. Loudly. 🤣👍
If that's not a minor league baseball team name, it ought to be.
This literally made my night! Hahaha I loved the departure from seriousness.
5:56 mark. Nothing like hearing an engineer say "Is this gonna work?"
Gosh this brings back memories of some of the dumber things my friends and i would get up to.. except none of us are engineers, so we basically just armored up and held the weedeaters ourselves XD
(One thing my friends and I discovered, some types of line do better at certain temperatures. Our first "tournament" was during a really hot Spring, and the second was during a frigid Autumn. There were no consistent winners between the two seasons)
(Also didn't have the luxury of high-speed cameras back then, so we ended up going with shortest line loses)
Almost an hour!? Thank you, Destin! 🙏
THE WARMUP AT 19:00 IS LIKE THE BURNOUT AT A DRAG RACE LOL
I FELT THE SAME WAY
Agreed!
@4:02 jeremy picks the triangle but then for the rest of the episode apparently he "chose" the silver square when it was destin that picked really picked it.
MY LORD WHY HAS NO ONE ELSE CAUGHT ON TO THIS I HAVE LOST DAYS OF SLEEPS OVER IT NOW!
Thought the same, Jeremy was out in first round sharpest hex and triangle, but still said he was in the game
Thanks Destin 🙂 always look forward to your videos! You bring extra wonder to life 🙏
I literally just got home from looking at weedeaters and was thinking of this video. Haha
The enthusiasm of your voice over sells it! Thanks for the best science entertainment on the web so far!
love your second channel. The in-depth part. just watched this and now again lol
I love your videos and I believe I've watched every one of them on the other channel. I had no idea about SED2 and I subscribed before I watched a single second of video.
You guys are SERIOUSLY crazy.....and it is so cool !!
Quick question: What happens to the little bits of plastic that fly off of weed eaters lines in your garden? How much of this stuff becomes microplastic hazards to wildlife and the environment?
Loved the video!
Great vid. Keep up the great work.
This is the best thing ever. 😂
**Currently watching**
You bought another weed wacker to do a perfect battle. I also like that you used STIHL, it's the best type of hardware company and it gives you faster results.
This entire thing made me so happy!
here withing two mins, HI DESTIN ILY YOURE THE BEST YTER
original cut was fantastic.(I hope your voice has recovered form all that screaming!)
behind the scenes though...this is where it's at.
I like these behind the scenes stuff
so glad there is more weed eater video!!!
First off I have to say I thoroughly enjoy all of the varied content you provide. You make learning things (that the average person would never expect they wanted to learn) a completely engaging experience. With that out of the way I think Trent may have been robbed. In the 2nd round of the battle between the sharp sharp square & the gray round it was determined that the gray round “broke” the sharp sharp square at the root. I believe what really happened was that the sharp sharp square was simply unwound from the spool since there was so little line left “in reserve.” Ultimately I think this would have had little impact when facing the lines with the solid core but the gray round was surely not the definitive winner in the aforementioned round.
Way cool. Great giggles & ya learn stuff.
The interesting thing is that the losing weed eater is the force breaking the line, not the winning one. When the lines collide, a knot/twist is made, the weed eaters then need to pull that knot loose, the line which can continue the original path of the rotation the best should win most of the time because it isn’t being yanked by the weed eater to return to the original path. I think that higher density lines will ultimately prove better in this experiment simply because they will have more momentum.
I absolutely love the videos on the main channel, but I almost get more excited about the videos on the 2nd channel. Lol
The only thing missing from this video is Todd from Project Farm.
Best channel ever lmao
I got the email, not a notification from youtube.. I'm glad I signed up!
I'm really curious about the rpms of the right vs left machine...imparting more or less energy into the lines. I had this question from the main channel and came here for more details. Keep up the great videos and extra points for channel 2 for feeding the detail side of my brain.
Definitely subscribing to this alot of product knowledge layout here.
I appreciate that Destin left the explanation for the winning pattern in the vid even when we know that it is wrong.
Sharing with Project Farm!
Did the footage @51:30 pinpoint the "wrapping" failure mechanism you were seeing?
1) impact: then the more compliant line wraps around the stiffer line/object
2) perimeter failure: as the compliant line bends, it creates a stress concentration at the outer perimeter of the line at the tight radius, pushing the outer fibers past the ultimate tensile strength.
3) momentum increases: during "unwrapping" the end of the compromised line gains angular momentum, increasing tensile force on the line at the weakened point
4) tensile failure: the axial force created in the line at the moment the unwrapping completes causes tensile failure (perhaps there's also a bit of a shock/fracture type load too).
Awesome!
Looking forward to weed eater wars 2.0 :P
Can we see all of the takes of the fight announcements and results? You gave little clips of them in the main channel video but they were hilarious. Huge fan! Peace!
I would give my left arm for one of those carts. My old scope would look amazing atop one.
Great video, thanks.
You should have asked me 25 yrs ago when I sold mine at the Livermoore ham swap. Same model.
I would so love to be in that garage with you guys! Overcoming challenges! Working with guys that think the same way!
*If you're the smartest person in a room, you're in the wrong room!*
Love the video. I asked on my twitter, but forgot I get more characters to use here. What was the thought on methodology on tilting the weedeaters vs laying them back to overlap the field's of travel? You'd hit so many times more since they are forced to be within each other's path.
My example was splayed hands.
its great that these BTS's are here, just makes me feel im part of the discovery's :D and it is just hilarious if you think for a moment that everyone is talking about Weedeater line xD
I LOVE YOU AND YOUR CHANNEL. LOVE U. LOVE
Thanks for watching!
I knew it! Grey blobby thing couldn't lose! Grey blob for life!
Nice Destin.👌🏻
That was awesome
Now this is the true Mortal Kombat
I have to be honest, I am watching this at 6x speed, and it is too long for me personally. Someone will love it, and bless them, I am glad it exists for them, I have to apologize for bringing down your view ratio.
There's a more traditionally edited version on the main channel. This is the extended/director's cut, if you will
6x speed?! At that point why bother at all watching it?
You won't understand a single word at that speed.
Just this afternoon I bought a spool of that crosfire stuff... haha Im happy with my choice.
"Put smart stuff in your brain" is such a great catch phrase!!
@arduinoversusevil needs to see this
Its like the snider cut for weed whacking
Lmao
Ok, you need to test which line holds up better against concrete, bricks, etc. So, if you use a weed eater for edging, or working against a house. In those situations, there shouldn't be any breaking due to small radial bending.
Weed Eater lines versus flat abrasive surfaces should be the next test!
Hmm. Flat, abrasive surfaces... sounds like someone has grass growing right up against their foundation.
@@danielmann6772 Great guess! It isn't my house, but was my parent's house and others in Abilene, TX, back when I mowed them growing up. We also had sidewalks and curbs that everyone liked having edged by turning the weed eater 90 degrees. Which wasn't a problem with the electric weed eater, but was when we got a gas weed eater. (We never had one that had a pivoting head like I do now.) We also had weeds and grass that constantly grew between the cement curbs and asphalt road. This always ate through a ton of line! Although, not as much as trying to get the grass growing through the chicken wire we used to keep the dogs from digging out. Haha good times, good times!
@@alanbutler7712 oh, the dreaded sidewalk/driveway monsters. Their favorite meal is weed eater line, and they have HUGE appetites.
Petition: "Smarter Every Day 2" -> "Smarter Every Other Day"
Love me some of that Spaghetti Junction!
It took until 42:14 to realize the background on the bracket is a fence.
We need more weed eater wars 🥺
HA HA!! I love engineers. Jeremy can build anything out of nothing, Does science that no one else even thinks about doing but ask questions like. How do I turn off the weed-eater. This Is AWESOME Content. P.S. George is the Perfect Kind Of Funny. Thank you all !
You guys need to do something similar to the Marblelympics, but with weed eaters. Add some obstacle courses or somethin.
51:20 when the wave of stress start moving from the point of impact both the cable take the same angle, i think that if they were rotating faster the angle would have been narrower
Been running "Grey Blobby" (Husqvarna 'titanium') for 3 years on a high hp Husky machine up against 400yds of RR track down one side of my property. I've been sold as it's an event when you need to extend line. It wears down slowly rather than cato breaks. Been wondering about that cored stuff though. Seems it's good,. but a bit pricy.
Nice video guys, could tell you hated every minute. Time for dueling chainsaws?? Hydro axes?
Oh man, you've given the title weed eater master now 😂
I'm really curious to know what brand the Sharp Square is! I'd like to get some for my weed eater :)
It is less like rebar in concrete and more like swords. Often swords will have a hard edge to better keep the sharpened edge with a softer spine to allow for some flex along the length of the blade. The solid core provides extra strength while the outer material is responsible for the cutting action.
The Great Wacker Off 2021.
quite crowdy garage!
Joe and buzz is the Internets hidden gem
Like #54
Thanks for the video!
( 13:59 ) I thought Jeremy picked the Triangle...
He did, he was out on first round
Now the effects of plastics etc in the ground/sea 30-50 years L8tr .
Easy to manuf plastics hard to contain
what chemicals in plastics do the most harm .
I will watch whacky wild weedeater videos 👍🏽
Hey that final was judged wrongly!! The rule was supposed to be first break on the high speed!!!
Jeremy is hilarious... :D
Still think the shortest line lost, timed bouts.
Ha the switch up on the motors was a good segment... you never know they might have had the high ground.
So what you need is a Razor core vs Blob test.
And every one of the 3 is good.
Hi Dustin,
Greetings from Las Vegas. 25 years in the maintenance industry, I can tell you of course the Core line Would be the better choice” 😋 but the methodology of having two Weedwhacker‘s attack each other it’s just wrong on so many levels LOL, but because of different RPMs and angle of attack, and which string Got to hit first, would determine which one would win. Should’ve attacked a nail
Better yet a piece of chain-link fence, or a pile of dirt, and that will tell you which type of string to use and which type of situation. And when are you coming to Vegas? And when are you going to do some thing On street sweepers? And I bet you 50 bucks that you can’t find too many regulations for the darn things. Have a good day. Hug your family, And enjoy this day God has made.
It's funny that Destin is causing an unexpected demand shift in the market through these videos. People will definitely decide which line to pick based on these videos.
I grew up near spaghetti junction in Birmingham England. Just the most anti sense concrete edifice in the sky.
So if you'd put a solid core with the best cutting coating, you could make a tougher and more effective line.
Oh man..when I first read the name of this vid..I had completely the wrong idea....
If any of these string producers are paying attention to these videos and the product development. Do you have the bend tinsel strength for each, and the pull apart strength. Then how close and how many hits to a solid object before it brakes. You should be able to design the perfect string.
How all laugh every time the rich and famous one makes a joke.
53:25 omg I feel that emotion so closely dood
Email list for this channel too?
George's sweatshirt, "Poly Track", which Poly is that? Cal Poly SLO?
It all comes down to tensile strength and material composition.
razor core but with the star shape would be the best of both tests!
So what we really learned is that the best weed eater cord to use is; the cord that has a solid inner core, and the sharpest edges.?
