Making Rubber Golf Tee DIY
The process of measuring, designing, printing, and testing 3D printed golf tees. I use my Ender 3 Pro with my direct drive extruder upgrade and Inland TPU. I design the part on Tinkercad and use Cura to get the model ready for printing for the cheapest way to start. I use one tee at my local driving range and the other at home on my simulator. The tall one is 2.5 inches and the short tee is 1.5 inch.

Golf Putter Stand (Folds Away for Storage)
Просмотров 908 месяцев назад
I could not find a folding putter stand that I could put away and bring out easily. My kids and I play a putting game almost every night and I was worried my kids would bend the putters as they were always being left on the couch. I used scrap pine and poplar 1x2s to create a folding frame. I created the hinge with a quarter inch bolt and washers on each side. I 3d printed the stopper to stop t...

Bending Aluminum Square Tube without Bender

      Thanks for watching. I think the small board is the only permanently fixed board and the others are removable and changeable to meet specific clamping size needs. With that said, it is totally possible I messed something up. I do think my three issues of the belt being split on arrival, the use of somewhat loose rivets, and the warped boards are problems regardless of my inabilities. I did not intend to dislike the product, but it is somewhat expensive and I just felt it was worth noting my experience. Thanks again.

    I'm glad he mentioned that the brackets were fickle.

I don't understand this but in both cases they've been working well for years. I find these very sturdy but I'd sure like to know how to put them up so that I didn't have to fiddle with them before they folded correctly.

    I like the price, but like everyone says, having to use an allen wrench to change the blade is annoying. But also I've catch myself ACCIDENTALLY pressing the trigger because I forget that once you let go of the trigger and put it down on the floor, when you pick it back up to use sometimes you'll press the trigger by accident and it'll go off. Luckily I didn't cut myself, I would have to remember to turn the knob to 0 to shut it off and then put the tool down. I don't know but I didn't have this problem with other trigger tools, maybe because this is very light weight, the trigger button is very sensitive to press instead of the more hardy triggers.. Not a deal breaker but i might return this now to get the brushless version where it's tool-less to swap attachments. Sometimes I need to adjust the blade itself to get to the correct angle i want and its annoying to use the allen wrench tool to adjust. haha.. 1st world problems.

      @MacLeodGolf Год назад

      I just ruined my Makita trying to get too aggressive about a week ago (had to use my fire extinguisher). I mainly use a 1/4 inch 2 flute HSS bit for aluminum if I can get away with 1/4 inch for the project. I moved my speeds up toward 30-40 IPM, but I need to rethink my depth of cut at those speeds. When I jammed up the Makita I believe I was at .04 inches depth on a contour pass which I could have maybe gotten away with .03, but probably should have played it safe at .02. I question whether the depth was the real problem though because it was going fine for the first couple of minutes and then started to bog down. When I removed the router I saw the speed was at full which was not where I had it originally (I had it right around setting 3), so I wonder if the speed control crept up causing it to fail, or if the failure caused the speed control to move. I think I have learned the biggest issue with aluminum is getting chips out of contours as be as possible so they do not fuse and clog everything up and having a reliable way to hold my work (which you can see in some of my newer videos). Anyway hope any of that is helpful.

    Not a problem here, the assembly pictographs are 90% worthless. Anyone with a modicum of common sense can assembly the 425 (a). I suggest throwing away the 13 mm thumb wrench and have at it with a 13mm socket and ratchet., but do not over tighten the bolt; hand tight is fine. As far as gooching the unthreaded plastic pieces with the 13mm bolt, use Loctite 222 to get some lube and some thread lock when getting to those pieces. The 425 is good for the homeowner but I'd not take it to the job site. My 2 cents. ps...bought one my adult daughter, too, and she's not had a problem.

But still couldn't reach the center of the bricks. Its amazing how hard this 50 yr old mortar is! While fishing around in the truck for a pry bar I noticed a set of Carbide tipped Sawzall blades...pkg said they could cut masonry. So I gave it a shot. It did a surprisingly good job and sawzall became my finishing tool of choice! I used up 1.25 blades on 4 bricks, so not a lot of bang for the buck . But I only had 4 bricks to slot , so it worked for me. The multi tool was definitely a disaappintment for this job due to limited reach and slow speed of etching thru the mortar. In addition, I discovered I have the new TOOLESS blade change version of the oscillator. There's no Allen wrench needed. It was definitely a puzzle . Pulled the release handle up vertical and it stopped. But blade locking clip wouldn't move . Finally by accident I pushed the handle Beyond vertical and realized it's spring loaded past that point and just required firm pressure to release the blade clip. Ezpz loading after that. Glad step 1 is over..now on to mixing mortar and laying bricks!

      Hello, Good question, I should have mentioned that in the video. I went into studs. I would not trust it in drywall alone. There is a lot of leverage towards the front when my arms are resting on the desk that would rip it out of the drywall I think.

    When i ordered mine I didn't realize that the newer workmates were riveted instead of bolted. Luckily for me mine is surprisingly solid but we'll see what happens after some use. My panels are acceptably flat but not perfect. I allowed them several months to normalize before i assembled the table to prevent warping, but one of the panels is showing some small gaps from shrinkage which i will have to glue. For those of you who have an uneven jaw panel, it sounds like the followers were not even with each other when the panel was installed. Anyone assembling one of these will save themselves some headache by making sure the followers are in the same position on each side before putting the jaw panel on. So far mine has not been what i expected when compared to 80's models but it sounds like mine arrived in a lot better condition than some of the ones mentioned in the comments

    I purchase the new Dewalt (only at lowes) quiet 12 Gallon Machine great machine and very quiet (around +/- 65DB) CFM is +/- 120 also did purchase the Kacher NT 30/1 because Karcher has an ongoing discount for 249US$ (normally 549US$ and plus) for the HEPA version and I tell you great machine around 68DB noise and 140CFM if you interested check the Karcher OUTLET page. I do like the 12GaL DEWALT A LOT, BUT THE is a keeper, RETURNING the Dewalt. Any great video and review Thanks for your efforts.

      Hello, Thanks for the interesting comment. I saw another review lately and the DeWalt had a label on the top referencing "quiet" something or other, but the one I received from Amazon didn't have that same label and I am guessing that maybe they changed this model recently. I am happy enough with my new Fein Turbo I that I probably won't by another garage vacuum for a little.

    Did the purchase of the Fein with a lower noise level out weigh the cheaper Dewalt which is somewhat quieter? Looking at buying one….do you have a recommendation?

    • @MacLeodGolf
      @MacLeodGolf 2 года назад

      Hello Lawrence, The DeWalt I tested in another video was quieter than my old rigid vacuum, but because I like to be near my CNC while it is running the extra money for the Fein was worth it. I think the dewalt from my other video is noticeably louder than the Fein. For me, the Fein was worth the extra money, but I think it is less powerful than the DeWalt. Also, when other people (my wife or friends) come in and hear the Fein running they react as if it is super loud, but I think that is because they have no idea how loud other shop vacuums can be. So, I would say the Fein is still loud compared to most household vacuums, but in my opinion it is the quietest shop vacuum I have tried.

      Hey, Thanks for the comment. You know what I have been using recently is a chisel. It is awesome at getting under the corners of a 3d print, but if you are not flat with the chisel it can dig into the bed material. For me that is not a big deal because I use geckotek, but on glass or other surfaces it could be a problem

      I think the main differences are weight capacity and the vertical clamping mechanism. I could be wrong though.

    I have the same pocket hole jig. How did you set the depth for the collar? I'm new to wood working and don't know how far from the edge the hole needs to be.

    • @MacLeodGolf
      @MacLeodGolf 2 года назад

      Hello, The two different holes per leaf are for different thicknesses of wood. Once you know the correct thickness, pick that hole and put your drill bit through the hole until the tip is touching the base. Then pull the bit back just a little so it will not hit the base when you drill through the wood later (one youtuber with a similar jig suggested putting a penny down for the tip of the bit to rest on to keep enough distance while you tighten the collar). Once you have the tip of the bit barely off the base top, put the collar on the back of the bit right up to the hole in the leaf and tighten it well. Hope this helps.

      @MacLeodGolf 2 года назад

      Hello, As far as I know, they make multiple inflators, but they serve different purposes. There is a couple of handheld versions, but I think this is the only one you can set the PSI goal and then start it and it will shut off when it reaches the goal. I really love this one. I have used it on multiple car tires, sports balls, and some other items. I bring it with a full battery on every family road trip just in case.
