I would have kept the engine that's original to the Celica.
Parts Don't Exist, So I Made Them! // 2UZ V8 1974 Celica
She's getting better at every restoration she is doing. Even though, if it was me, I'd want to keep the engine original.
What NOT to Do: American’s “Weatherbuilt” Padlock (Model 701W)
This guy's abilities are just stunning!
The Simpsons (Repair and recalibrate a 1970ies Simpson Multimeter)
I like this old tech. So easy to fix, and, as long as you can find or make parts for it, they can live for a long time. I don't think that any of my multimeters will live that long.
How to Repair Split Wood on a Storage Chest
Like a miracle. Yet that screwdriver looks really unwieldy to me, not sure if I'd be able to do anything with that. 😀
Shamed be he who thinks naughty of it. 🤣
I Made a Tree Generate Electricity..
Interesting concept. I wonder, how the tree would react to the constant strain?
The Secret Life of Gas Springs (Constant Force)
Sorry for the borked original YouTube comment. Looks like Lemmy does not import titles and captions or even thumbnails correctly atm.
Not sure, whether it is relevant for this thread, but my phone (POCO F3) does not get any notifications if Google Play Services has no access to the internet. I scratched my head for a while to find out, why I never got them on mobile data. Not sure, what it does, if you disable the store.
This canal boat has a surprise inside!
Steamboats are magic! I wouldn't want one, but I really like the technology, the simplicity and the ingenuity.
This Runaway Excavator Almost Pulled My Giant Wrecker Off a Cliff!
These boys just have the most fabulous toys!
How to Sharpen Scissors in Seconds. Plus Scissor Science.
Interesting to understand, where this massive difference in sharpening angle between knives and scissors comes from.
Gravity Rotisserie - driven by the weight of stones - da Vinci "flying pendulum Escapement"
If I had a forest to play with, that's what I would build. Now I am hungry!
You can edit titles on Lemmy
I am aware of that. If the devs keep cracking at it, ten years from now Lemmy may have almost as much functionality as PHPBB, way surpassing Reddit. 😜
OTOH, this meta-discussion also has a certain value. So, I'll leave the title as it is for now and will keep the issue in mind for any further posts.
That's what I would have thought as well.
Yes, you are right!
I used the original title of the video on YouTube, even though it is not very descriptive. I would like to "editorialise" titles as little as possible. But here it would have made sense to change it. So, thank you!
If you can harness the wind, like they seem to have enough of in Ireland, I guess it could be cost-effective. A windmill may be overkill, but some kind of "vertical propeller" (how are they called?) may be enough.
OTOH, a windmill would be a great toy to play with, so I can understand his wish 😀
Haha, I am a native German speaker, and I had a hard time following them without looking at the subtitles. But then, grammar is a fickle bitch in all languages.
Very true, his videos got more and more commercial over the years, unfortunately. But there are still some gems in his videos now and then, like this bevel. However, I don't think, it has to be 15° exactly 😜
Haha, yes, that's seems to be their business model. OTOH, I am always amazed by these people's abilities to fix the buggers. It's like watchmaking to me, or witchcraft.
You're right! Sometimes I think, having the big 7 on my age counter means to slow down. But it shouldn't. There is so much still to see and explore.
Great explanation, thank you! I can guess, if a nut or bolt is more like a 10 or a 15mm, but not if it's 10 or 11, haha! Yes, it's an art and a science all at once.
Thanks! This tickles my creativity. I guess, I'll start with a prototype from 2x4s sometime this summer.
Yeah, that would be nice, mine is a little deficient as well. However, on the positive side, a crooked table saw can be a glorious quality-time-waster.
It was featured in one of the "Crocodile Dundee" movies. The sound carries acrpss a long distance, and the thing can be used for signalling/distress calls etc. Not sure if they still use it down under, when there is no cell signal.
Also, don’t use YouTube directly, use Invidious or Piped, and this particular issue would be gone.
It's the convenience. If you want to run a channel, you're kind of damned to sell your soul. 🙃 The question is for how much you'd sell yourself out completely.
Not sure, if these apps run on a desktop computer, though, which is my main workhorse.
