Sourdough Beignets
Просмотров 107Год назад
Amy and grand kids making New Orleans Style Sourdough Beignets. You never know what the kids are going to say! We sure had a fun time though. These beignets have a slight sourdough taste but are oh so good. I think they could have gone into the fridge after 4 hours and it may take some of the "twang" out of them. We all really liked them though. Making It Work is about taking what you have and ...

Great job 👏 sir
Thank you!
You might want to add car door edge guard to the inside of the slot..
Good idea!
Why buy those overpriced awnings when you can make one lile old school style❤❤❤
Exactly! If you make one, let us know.
Your intro is to much. Get to the point. Drama drama
🤔😎👍💪🛠
Hey guys! Troy and Lori from Wisconsin here. Your rig looks great, and so do you! Love the improvements!
Thanks! We missed seeing everyone at the last rendezvous. We had truck trouble and had to cancel it and the two weeks out west after it. Still so sad about that. If you’re ever in TN let us know. We may try to make a WI trip next summer. We shall see.
We had to cancel our reservations last minute for the rendezvous also. My mom's on hospice and our daughter is getting married in a few weeks. Her wedding shower was at our home in June. Too many things at once. We want to take a trip in September. Maybe we can come to TN. We love it there! And you would be welcome to come stay with us in WI. We have an empty nest...😊
I think I'll be building one for my skoolie! Fantastic!
Awesome! We would love to see it when you’re finished.
Nice job.
Thank you! And thanks for watching!
You’ve really perfected your design! Thanks very much for graciously sharing.
Thank you. Thanks for watching!
Just make hand cranck
Thanks for watching! The awning is set up for a hand crank or the drill.
Great Job sir! I think I will give it a go and make it a bit shorter as you suggested. One question I have is where do you store the poles, rope, etc. when it's not being used? Is the any type of pole storage incorporated at all? Thanks
Thanks so much for watching! We just put the poles in the back of the truck. I wonder if you could make clips to go on it somehow. If you come up with something please let us know.
You stated that the big PVC was 3" and then later 4" and I am guessing it is 4". I plan to build similar for 3 slide out toppers with actual awning fabric. I paid like 10 bucks for a set of Dometic bracket arms that attach to the outside of the slide-out and hopefully I can adapt the PVC in between the two arms. I'm definitely not spending 2k but more like 300. Cheers!
Good deal. Thanks for watching. Hope it turns out well for you!
Bonjour à vous Beau travail, bien recherché Félicitations 👍
Thank you. And thanks for watching!
Cool , I really like this and it give me a few ideals
Glad you liked it. Thanks for watching and let us know what you come up with!
Why you got the swivel on one end when you don’t need it
The swivel was for operating it with a hand crank. Otherwise you can use a drill. We took ideas that people gave us here and modified some things since the original build.
How long is the tarp when it’s pulled out and is that a 6 inch pipe that is in
It’s however long you want to make it. It’s been a while but I think it’s a 4 inch pipe. Check the Awning 2.0 video. We waterproofed a sheet instead of the tarp and it may be in a smaller pipe now.
I was asking because only so many feet of tarp can be wound up and fit in that four-inch pipe
That’s about as high dollars you can do it do it yourself but it’s the best one I’ve seen. I’m doing exactly the same thing
Thanks for watching. Hope your build goes well. We have an Awning 2.0 video that might help you out too.
No:7q awesome that’s exactly what I was going to do now I can see someone else do it
I like the idea though
Thank you!
If you glue the outside swivels to the inside center bar you wont be able to pull the caps off
Thanks for watching. We did glue on one end and a screw on the other. It’s working well that way.
That's a cool way to solve a problem, so neat!!! Keep up the awesome videos, y'all are great!!
Thank you!!
😮
Love your channel
Thank you. Thanks for watching!
Thank you
You’re welcome. Thanks for watching!
Excellent job on this video! And very interesting topic
Yes, it was a very interesting topic! Lol. Thanks, bro!
Try pellets with a couple of nachos in place of the cotton nall
Try this as a fire starter?
Nice choice of music 🥰
Thanks! We only use the best! ;-)
Too cute!!!
We thought so too!
Merry Christmas! You two are adorable! Hugs from Troy, Lori & Honey!
Thank you! Thanks for watching! And Merry Christmas to Honey from Maverick and Piper.
You Guys are awesome.🎉 So much fun. Merry Christmas to you as well. Hope to see you at the next Rendezvous.
Thank you! We would love to go to the Rendezvous but can only go if we are off work. We shall see!
The end caps rotary hinge is a great solution.
Thank you. Thanks for watching!
Loved the video. Really killer idea.
Thank you. Thanks for watching!
So, I go to harbor freight and ask for "one of these"? When they ask what that is, I tell them it's a few bucks. They'll know, right?
Yup! Lol! Maybe screen cap it and show them a pic?
This is awesome dude and at a low cost to make a bespoke DIY canopy. Could you please tell me what the end caps are actually called?
Thank you and thanks for watching. The end caps are just reducers, like from 3 inch down to 1 inch or whatever size you’re using. D hub pvc reducer is what I used.
I love this! It would also be great to mount on the front of an open box utility trailer for a 'load cover' when needed! Well done!
Thank you! That would be a great application for this project. Thanks for watching!
Excelente trabajo, felicidades muy bien hecho
Thank you! Thanks for watching!
That was absolutely spectacular how much did it all cost
Because we had most of the stuff it really didn’t cost much. To buy everything, maybe around $65-$75 including the tarp or sheet.
This is awesome, just need a drill with variable control. That windup is violent.
Yup. Lol! Needs a gear reduction or something. Thanks for watching!
Much improved and a Awesome idea yet again 😎😎🤘🤘
Thanks! And thank you for watching!
How much to make me one?
Lol!! Thanks for watching!
no i mean really. I need one. @@MakingItWork
Great job on thus jig. Can you explain the measurements when needing to make like an 5 x 7 or 8 x 10 frame? Whwn do we make the rabbit and where would our starting point be?
That is really hard to say because there are so many ways it can be done. What I do is measure the height and width and to measurements would be the center of the frame boards so your cut would cross that midline in the center. The best way is to get some scraps and practice. Then i would cut a dado on the under and in side so that the picture would be inset a little.
Very neat. Have you tried it moving snow?
We don’t get much snow here and if we do we just wait for it to melt. Thanks for watching!
Also you can just put an old 3/8” socket on the side instead of the u-joint that way you don’t have the u-joint hanging all the time
Yup. Good idea! We already added that modification. It’s a work in progress for sure. Thanks for watching!!
The reason you're losing weight is because your body used to burn sugar for energy. Now that you aren't feeding it sugar, it has turned to burning fat for energy. Well done! 👍 P.S. Make sure that spaghetti sauce doesn't have sugar in it. 😊
Yup! Thanks for watching!
I like it. If you reverse the universal joint you can use a long extension or two and a drill to crank it up and down from at the ground. I actually have hand cranks for 1/2" drive sockets just like to old school store awnings I might use on my build. Or a power drill with 1/2" socket adaptor! Hand crank as back up. Thanks
Thank you. I actually did that mod. It’s been a work in progress, lol. Thanks for watching!
Looks great!!! ❤
Thank you! And thanks for watching!
If you paint it white or silver, it will not get as hot and be less prone to warping.
Good idea. Thanks for watching!
Your welcome, I do like the awning idea, I may use it myself with a couple of mods.@@MakingItWork
Well done 👍 I love it.
Thank you! And thanks for watching!
Dude loves harbor frieght
Yup! Thanks for watching!
Love that recipe! 😍
Us too! Thanks for watching!
