Cardboard, Glue, Two colors of paracord. I make a pair of training aids for teaching little ones how to tie their shoelaces. Two different colors makes it easier to see and guide which lace goes where.

With all the circuit breakers turned off my multi-meter says that I have 120vac, but with any of the circuits turned on it drops out to nothing and it is not a short since none of the breakers trip. Join me as I chase down the wiring.

My adventure in replacing the ballast for the fluorescent light in the laundry closet. A little bit of basic wiring is really all it takes, and its much easier with the WAGO connectors. amzn.to/4fkOJoJ and amzn.to/4fnbqbV I checked the mounting screw with this: Nut and Bolt thread checker amzn.to/4cXl3wz Push in cable connectors 3/8 in for 1/2 in knockouts amzn.to/4fle41P WorkbenchZ is a partic...

The beater bar would only move a little, or not at all, and I hoped cleaning the beater bar and removing the hair and strings wrapped around it would help. Struggling with one screw where the head was stripping out, a JIS (Japanese Industrial Standard) screwdriver did the trick. Cleaning the roller with hemostats and tweezers did the trick and it works like it should. The tools I used for this ...

A dim light that doesn't wake, disturb, hurt the eyes of others. This one came about as an idea for camping, where you can use this to find your water bottle, glasses, phone, or the tent zipper to go to the wash house late at night without disturbing your tent mates. The Fairy Lights I bought for this: amzn.to/4bbDeh1 This is not a compensated endorsement, I purchased these items for my own use...

Making a Mbira, pronounced em·bee·ruh, also called a kalimba or thumb piano. I present my struggle for your entertainment. This is the last of the cub scout musical instruments. I'll admit up front it is not my best work, but the kids had a lot of fun making them, it kept them occupied for the whole den meeting, and they liked that it makes more than one note.

I've wanted to change my own watch batteries, so I bought a took kit, and ... well ... It was a bit of a struggle. I hope you find my difficulties entertaining. This is part 1 Part 2: (link to be added once part2 is published) This is not a compensated endorsement, I purchased these items for my own use. The tools I used: Byniiur watch repair kit - good tools except the watch back removal tool ...

Using a pinhole to project sunlight onto a white sheet of paper is one way to observe the upcoming solar eclipse safely, without looking directly at it. Pin-hole Viewer is also called a Camera Obscura (means "Room" "Dark") and dates back to 400BC China.

My toilet started free-flowing, so I shut off the water and replaced the flap valve. This video is actually longer than the process takes.

Another little instrument build, an Egyptian percussion rattle called a Sistrum.

I got these thick walled cardboard tubes for free, I asked at the cutting desk at Joann Fabric and they were happy to give me 6 of them. I would guess most fabric stores are the same, stashing the empty cardboard tubes and bolt cardboard cores behind the counter at the cutting desk. Wax paper and a rubber band to close the ends, rice to make the rain sound, and twisted aluminum foil to act as t...

(Shorter version) Adding a second SSD drive to my HP Envy TE01-0034 desktop, it already has a SATA and power cable, making it a little easier to add this 4TB SSD drive. It doesn't come with mounting screws, you need to obtain M3x5 (Metric 3mm diameter 5mm length 0.5mm pitch) Drive Mounting screws. I decided to try this TEAMGROUP 4TB SSD since it had over 3500 reviews scoring 4.7/5 and was about...

It seemed an easy fix - this clothes washer kept throwing a "load out of balance" error no matter how much or how little was in it. All my research pointed in the same direction; replace the suspension springs. And conceptually, it's straight forward, but the basin/basket/motor are heavy and the rods are thin. So here is another video that is more of my adventure in trying and eventually succee...
