    A little tip for the screw drawer, when you dump them out, dump them into a shop towel and then put it on the bench. This way, you can sort and separate on the towel, and when you're done you just bundle it up and dump it back into the drawer. Added benefit, the screws don't really want to roll around on the towel like they do on a bench, so they stay put when you're sorting them.

    • @DoctorDanieI
      @DoctorDanieI Před rokem +4

      He could also add different size holes into the drawer so it sorts the screws based on size while not needing additional draws. Something like a reverse pyramid shape but with square cut outs. The smaller screws would tickle down to the bottom, medium in the middle and large stays on the top. Just give it a little shake. Only downside is that if it is crammed then the effect won't work.

    2. No, you are FAR from the only person with a bin of miscellaneous screws & bolts. In my collection, all are the "wrong" length, or diameter, or thread count.
    3. The Forstner drill bit you used for the hidden hinge recesses (at 9:40) has a red shank. Does that signify anything? (manufacturer, special purpouse, an expecially dangerous bit, "it's mine!" or something else?)
    4. This is totally cool!
    5. The majoity of my worklife involved working with or on electronics, but it seems I did a brain wipe when I retired, because now I havet look up many things that I'm sure I never needed to. I guess that may be one reason i now spend my time turning large pieces of wood into scraps, shavings and dust, hoping that something interesting will accidentally happen. :-}

The sap moves among the fibers and makes the color more uniform throughout. Your barn find obviously did not come from a conventional sawmill. There is enough color present in the sap to stain your hands a nice dark brown when handling wet fresh cuts.

    This kind of project is right up my alley: woodworking plus Arduino. Keep it up.

    Fantastic ideas and video! I moonlight as a woodworker but my main job is in IT. This really opened up some new ideas for me. Thanks!!

    This is a great Project youve got there!
    Plus you have found a nice way to implement your sponsors, this has been like one of the only videos where i didnt skip the sponsor's messages.
    Amazing work, keep it up!

    Awesome project! Would love to see more electronic projects and some more details on the wiring.

    You certainly have a more advanced woodshop than me but probably on a similar level in both interest and understanding of the electronics. Very cool project, I love it!! Thanks for sharing 👍👍😁

    Since I've been considering a 3d printer, I was hoping for a3d printed latch. Awesome project!

    That’s pretty cool. I’m passionate about woodworking and electronics stuff and I’ve been looking to combine both, that is a really good exemple of it. You should definitely do more!!

    Check out the esp32 instead of the nano. More pins, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. Also heat gun over flames for heat shrink tubing. When soldering try to have a physical connection twisting wires instead of just placing near the other half to solder. Good job!

    So, I see two outright approaches to attack this lock:
    1. Flipper Zero & RFID brutforce attack (assuming I have the whole night for it!😂), or just copying dad’s key and using it later.
    2. Taking a thin sheet of metal or cardboard and making a shim for the lock.

    You need to make ALOT more of these!!! I could definitely use 2!!

    Loved this on. Bras, wood, electronics, all working to make a great looking product. Big fan of DIY Perks as well.

    Looks like you could just slide a card or thin piece of metal (pop can side) in the front to press down the latch allowing the door to open.

    Definitely one of the coolest projects you've made, I think this is a good path to go. I love DIY Perks channel as well! Of course these projects take more time, but they usually get more views, so I think it's worth it. Keep up the good work!

    I would love to see you do more electronics work because your application of it is super approachable. I would love if Mt Dew sponsored you more than that, but we’ll take the little victories in the meantime
