Also, Masks Don't Work: A review of science relevant to COVID-19 social policy www.researchga...
addendum: One of the beautiful side effects of considered discussion is that when I post a un-intended strawman it underlines the mis-understanding of a situation. Now it's plainly evident that a mask would help keep one's sneezes contained but how does that really help? Most people wearing a mask have no fucking clue how to use it. Smearing monkey shit all over their faces, scratching, adjusting, pulling aside to talk, going around spittle barriers because they are protected by the virtue signal of sandwich artist gloves and a mask yanked down to allow them to be clearly herd. You need training and diligence to use a mask effectively, otherwise it's little more than kabuki.

I bought one of these in Vietnam last year. Unfortunately I don’t have a Bosch nano saw so the screwdriver remains unopened.

"Shipping damage", didn't know you named your letter opener.
I also thought it might be letter opener related damage. I still have't found an excuse to buy one of my own.
@@shiruba2004 You need an excuse to buy a small chainsaw? One would think the existence of one would be more than ample reasoning.

i love how you bought the mini chain saw as a joke and have fallen in love with it
I want one for opening water heater boxes . I ruin more razor blades on those fibrous boxes than I want . And besides , it's very fashionable to open such boxes in the customers driveway with professional gusto . Passing by fellow tradesmen would turn green with envy at such luxury .
I bought one based on that video. They are actually really good. They can plunge and I have used it to cut out the hole for the sink in a kitchen counter top. It had no problems with that.
It's a micro electric chainsaw.... that is awesome. If you don't like it and you can't appreciate that cute little chain on it. I would say you just have poor taste.
Why no one else has manufactured their own version is surprising too.
We all fell in love with that tiny chainsaw... it sawed right through the bark of my gnarly wooden heart!
There is a sabersaw version of the same one as well. easycut50 on amazon.co.uk

Who else thought that the first time that switch got launched into a low earth orbit was the last time you would ever see it?
Kudos for retrieving it from the great beyond - several times.
I think he’s cheating! Only the bench is clean and he’s faking it!!!
Me. I was completely shocked when he just casually pulled it out to reinstall and I just sat staring as he launched in properly into orbit that second time. Having already been through it though, I was basically prepared for the 2nd return of the unloseable switch. ;)

6 in German is pronounced “sechs”, near indistinguishable from “sex”. Suitable choice for stiff things to shove into weird places.
It definitely made playing Seeschlacht(Battleship) in German class giggle inducing while also assuring that nobody ever placed a ship at G6 due to it inevitably being guessed during every game.
In Swedish 6 is spelled and pronounced sex.
@@josasp as it is in Icelandic (but curiously not Dutch, Norse or Faroese, where it is spelled 'seks' instead). I pointed out German in particular because that's where Bosch is from... (though that thing surely looks like it is at least inspired by Dremel products which they apparently now own).
LOL geile Erklärung. xD
Years ago in my middle school German 1 class we first learned the alphabet, then how to count to 100, and then discovered that the phrase "G-11-6" is hilarious.
As a German, I absolutely appreciate how you curse in german language. It's truly beautiful, and causes some good laughter as well.

AvE, masks aren't to stop the wearer from potentially inhaling 'viral particles', although they can certainly do that. The efficacy of masks in containing the spread of a virus has nothing to do with the size of the viral particle itself, and everything to do with the size of a droplet containing respiratory mucosal secretions (and viral particles). The viral particle itself has no chance of withstanding the extremes of the outside elements with its tiny protein coat. It easily succumbs to the effects of osmosis, at the very least, to dry out and become ineffective in attaching/penetrating cell membranes and replicating. Thus, anyone who dismisses masks based on their efficacy in mitigating the movement of a single viral particle can be safely dismissed. The efficacy of a mask lies in its ability to decrease (not eliminate) the transfer of previously mentioned respiratory droplets from an infected patient to surfaces that non-infected people may come in contact with.
With that said, the mortality rate of COVID-19 is very very low in non-vulnerable people (below 65 years of age, not immunocompromised, no pneumonia, etc.). The way we've handled this, IMO, is atrocious. We could've done a much better job, and saved more lives, by not causing mass panic and simply allowing non-vulnerable people to continue regular lives while affording extra protection and isolation for vulnerable people. In the process, we could've rationed healthcare resources and distributed them in a more efficient manner. In order for that to work, we would need good social distancing in public, the normalization of masks in public, more testing, the closure of the international border, and educating people about the danger of coming in contact, under any circumstances, with a vulnerable person. Had all of that been done, we could've eliminated the need for mass lockdown, in lieu of regional lockdowns when necessary. Look at China, Taiwan, Japan, Korea, Singapore, etc. None of them had a nationwide lockdown. Instead, we've used Italy, Spain, and other such countries as role models.
Then again, here in Canada, Justin Trudeau appointed someone with very little knowledge of public health to be the health minister (Sajdu) through a cabinet reshuffle, and our leading physician on COVID-19, Dr. Tam, was against border closures for months, she deliberately lied to the public (instead of actually controlling the supply chain) about the efficacy of masks, going as far as saying that they're not useful, in an effort to ration them for the healthcare industry. IMO, what Dr. Tam did amounts to criminal negligence, and she should be in jail right now. I can't imagine the number of cases in Canada caused by her. Imagine all the people who were infected and used public transit without wearing masks, spreading the virus on every surface they touched...
The article linked in the description is self-published by former physics professor Denis Rancourt, under the auspices of the Ontario Civil Liberties Association. He was dismissed by his previous employer, the University of Ottawa, for numerous subversions of the university's academic integrity. These included unilaterally changing the content of one of his courses, advertising another course he taught as being free despite it being a fee-taking course per university regulations, and giving every student an A+ in another of his courses regardless of their actual competence.
Physicists have a time-honoured tradition of speaking authoritatively on topics they have zero expertise in. Having a PhD does not make one immune to the Dunning-Kruger effect, and I'm afraid this is exactly what is happening here.
Thank you! Now that is great info, but can we find any research indicating home-made masks ARE effective in actual use?
Link some sources going against the claims. Please dont link cnn experts geta and bill though.

My understanding is that the mask is to protect others from the potential shedding and not the wearer.

@AvE The masks are not there to protect yourself, they are there to protect others. The masks filter some, but not all of the water particles so they are not effective as a safety device for yourself. the main problem not being the material it is made of, but the fact that they do not seal against your face. As you can see, the masks look the same as the ones worn in an operating room. The mask a surgeon wears is not to protect himself, but to protect the patient. It contains saliva droplets in his breath so they don't land in the open wound. The masks they urge you to wear have the same function. The best prevention from being contaminated is keeping a distance. You need to keep distance, so any water droplets from someones breath have time to fall on the ground. The mask you wear reduces the amount of water droplets that go into the air, and any water droplets that get out will have a lower velocity and will travel less far before falling on the ground. And that is why masks DO work. During the incubation period, or when you are asymptomatic, and you don't know you have the virus, the masks saves the people around you.

"The superior gripping power of a Robertson"
I suppose Torx is just a joke to you Canadian fellas?
Torx is ok, until you strip it. Robertson strips into philips for some reason, so you can get it out with that. So you get 2 screws for the price of 1
@@collinbarker I have never stripped a Torx screw, only damaged my bits when I didn't have the exact right size on hand.
@@schwuzi Torx are also still quite rare, usually only seen as deterrent screws for electronics, probably due to the existence of the others. Philips are used everywhere still (thanks usa...) while robertson are used in woodworking and are the ones sold in bulk. Torx would have to be ordered in.
At least we no longer use common slot, which are the worst by far. Also, I think robertson manufacturing is easier than torx, as robertson was made by someone who said "Philips bad and stabby" and copied the process they used to make screws. At one point, they were going to be used in cars, but the license got messy, so it was dropped, and so NA is stuck with philips everywhere.
Robertson also allow the screwdriver to be slightly wonky and still work. I have used some torx screws, and they are much less tolerant of what angle the driver to screw can be
Torx is for pricey screws. Robertson is also known as 'Nasa drive' apparently.
pozidrive = phillips (for self-centering) + Robertson (for grips)

I do a lot of work with screws in plastic and rackmount screws and the gyroscope control makes it easy to avoid crossthreading and when the screw bottoms out, the small shock to the device makes it stop turning.

Sounds a lot like the politicians in my country.
The mask is supposed to prevent the wearer from spraying bodily fluids all over everything, that's it. And since it's possible to get covid without any symptoms it makes sense for everyone to wear them.
I bought some Bosch screw bits years ago, and they were actually the best bits I ever used.

“Shipping damage” even though he opened the package with a mini chainsaw! 😂😂 that’s why I love AvE
I bought that screwdriver under the Dremel brand name to drive in inch and a half hex screws on cable clips at work. I used that screwdriver 5 days a week every week and it is by far my most favorite tool as it pretty much negated the need to be running back and forth grabbing the impact driver, and when youre working out of a tool belt you want the smallest lightest tools possible to get the job done quick. and save your back. i loved how i could hold the screw with my index finger, hold the driver with the rest of my hand and still have my other hand to hold the cable tight against whatever surface was driving into and it never let me down.
it did break after about 2 years of use, one of the bearings popped out of place and jammed the clutch but i took it apart as you did, put the bearing back in place, regreased it, and put it back to full time use like it was brand new.

All Rancourt is doing is critiquing the methodology or size of the studies. It looks like several of the studies do indicate a reduction of transmission of disease with the use of masks, just there was no additional benefit from M-95 masks. The studies cited, as every scientific paper I have ever read, call for additional studies to further the knowledge. Yes, what is needed is a large controlled study where all the other variables like hand washing, isolation from other potential sources of infection, and decontamination of environments are controlled.
Old D. G. would have more credibility if he worked for the Mr. Spock Institute for Unbiased Scientific Information.
Please don't encourage people to not wear masks, we're still loosing a couple thousand people a week in the states, where I'm sure a lot or the majority of your audience lives and dies.

Regarding masks, they aren’t for your protection but for the protection of others. Nobody cares if you get the COVID but if you spread it to others, people will care. And, the rule is no worse than having to wears shoes and a shirt at a restaurant-nobody sees that as an infringement on anyone’s rights. Or wearing a jacket in a fancier establishment. Cheap price to pay to open the economy, IMHO.

"Sorting a fly shit from pepper with boxing gloves on"

The Dremel unit looks exactly the same this one, but its about half the price. And when I say exactly the same, I mean they are the same unit
Thanks, I wouldn't have known about the Dremel version. Edit: Unfortunately it looks like the Dremel version is limited to North America or something. Though it looks like there's a second generation version of the Bosch Go, the Go 2. Difference being it has a mechanical clutch, a button as well as the push to go and an electronic brake.
Hardly surprising since Bosch bought Dremel way back in 1993. Dremel has better customer acceptance than Bosch in Norte America so that's the label they stick on 'em there.
No surprise there, considering Dremel is a subsidiary of Bosch. Here in Germany, the GO was never released as a blue ("Professional") version. Instead Bosch renamed it to "PushDrive" and released it with a green casing, which is basically the home gamer segment of Bosch power tools. Ultimately, I think this is all just marketing and brand recognition to appeal to the biggest audience because there are people who will strictly ignore products of a certain brand. Also, because certain brands are more wide-spread than others in certain countries.
@@RobEDC does the GO have metal gears also?
@@Tsagos Can't say for sure, but I'd be willing to bet that the Bosch GO, Bosch PushDrive and Dremel GO are absolutely identical when it comes to the inside components and that the only difference between all three just is the color of the plastic housing.
I'm not German, but I'm guessing the 1-6 dial may be because 180 is divisible by 5, given that 6 marks means 5 arc segments on a rotary dial.

I wear a mask in public because I care for my fellow humans, not for my own protection. “I’m protecting you, Karen”
I'm confused, does he not realize the masks are to protect other people from you? Not the other way around?
I dont think most people realize this. Why else would people drive alone in their own car with them on? Or walk alone through the suburbs wearing it with no one coming within 50 feet of them.
Just got my borsch a few days ago. Red six selector is torque shut off- not a mechanical clutch mind you. The delay is a pain in the arse as you mentioned and as I got this to test for my assembly line, I was dismayed to find there is no chooch while charging. They didnt spring for an isolated charge circuit and the one they did select is very slow. not good for volume / production work.
but what about masks?
100% missing the point - you don't wear a mask to protect yourself, you wear it to protect other people *from* you. Cajolery is in order
This is like the Black and Decker Versa I purchased in 1991, batteries no longer available. Worked like a charm with a clutch that worked perfectly on small screws as I worked on printers and fax machines all day everyday. No circuit board inside, just a motor, slide switch and similar but bigger gear box, battery is removable from outside. I would love to find a battery for it.
I just cleaned all the grease that has hardened, re-greased it and tested it with an external power supply, still works after been in storage for 19 years.
could the shipping damage have something to do with that exact part of the thing being right under the toolpath of your jumped up boxcutter when you opened er up?
I took apart the classic stick shaped version of the black and decker nicad based screwdriver when it broke. the gears were metal back then, don't know about now. It certainly lasted longer than I expected considering I used it to fix a deck, and decking screws are no joke.

Much lighter than a drill, and the clutch was very precise. I also strongly recommend Wera Hex-Plus bits when driving head-head cap screws - once I switched to those bits I had no trouble at all.
Ave, In reference to not preaching about wearing a mask, that cloth cuts both ways.
5:49 when the button flew off and the video cut, I was in tears laughing.
That honestly made my day, and i was having an awful day, thanks.
Yeah, but he had amazing foresight
"Tappy tap..." was my favorite part.
You gotta love when it lists a reputable shop with a @yahoo email address
Upon returning from some travel at the end of February I learned I had inadvertently entered a COVID-19 hot-spot, and started a 2-week home-isolation on March 2nd. Just when I hoped to return to work, the general California lockdown started. Living alone, I made it a total of 8 weeks in isolation before I hit a very rocky bottom.
During that time I learned I'm in 3 COVID-19 risk groups. Despite my health issues being very well managed with meds, diet and exercise, this still means if I get COVID-19 it'll be a battle. This scares the hell out of me, despite the odds still being strongly in my favor and improving with time.
After my meltdown 8-weeks in, I built a small 9-member community of well-isolated friends and family (something now being called a "pod"), each of whom has 3-degrees of separation from any known COVID-19 case. When any member of the pod drops below that level of separation, they're out of the pod for 14 days.
I feel safe within my pod, but that's about it. I can't afford grocery home-delivery, and don't like it anyway as I can't get the food I want that way, as the list of items eligible for home delivery is about 1/4 of the store. Good food is particularly important during isolation, and not just for nutritional reasons.
I need to go out to do food shopping. I also need to go out for my exercise (run, bike). And I see so many folks out there without masks, any of whom could be in a pre-symptomatic stage of infection. Everyone says: "Oh, I'll put my mask on when I get within 6' of anyone." But they don't have eyes in the back of their head as someone runs or bikes up from behind. They're not conscious of where the wind is blowing. And this is despite my trying to use out-of-the-way locations for my runs and rides, and taking full advantage of special early shopping hours at my local store.
I've worked so damn hard for my health and lifestyle, and it seems so wrong that some idiot without a mask can bring it all crashing down. Not even the risk of cancer scares me like this.
So, please, even if you feel the mask is silly and ineffective, wear it anyway when out in public. Even if only as a sign of caring for those of us with complicating issues.
If your job has you interacting with the public, then please also wear gloves, even if they're not disposable. I wear gloves when I shop, and dispose of them after cleaning my purchases.
This is a strange way to live. But 100,000 COVID-related deaths in the US is not to be ignored or trivialized. What's worse, all COVID numbers are certain to be well short of reality, as testing still is far from pervasive.
I do my best to minimize my contact with the public, within the limits of having a livable life. People are everywhere, and nobody knows who near them is vulnerable. It's only going to get worse as lockdown restrictions are eased.
So, please, just wear the geezless thing. Even if the safety improvement for me is infinitesimally small, it's there and it's real. Please.
If you wish, view it as a symbol you wear to support a cause, like one of those colored ribbons or wristbands, or a flag you wave. Even as a symbol, masks have social power.
The design of the darn tootin' thing looks like the spittin' image of my oral porcelain shiner.
I love this little screw driver, have had one for over a year. FYI the 1-6 is a torque setting.
You should test the Wiha version of that tool, a 500 euro electric screwdriver :)
RUclips makes us watch an ad before the video starts. This video was preceded by a Harbor Freight video. I thought it ironic.
Try the dewalt one with the gyro. I love that tool :)
I've got one of those, the DCF680N2. Swappable batteries, torque clutch, flashlight. Bought for the exact reason AvE did - old person tendonitis catching up to me. It's the Cadillac of power screwdrivers, IMO.
