    I showed your channel to a mechanical engineer friend of mine and his first words were, "this man is a genius." "He not only thinks of incredible things to do but he carries them out." I'm spreading the word Felix. Respect from Florida USA and Beyond

    Felix, I've watched several of your videos. There seems to be a common thread between them. Whenever you learn something from someone else, you cite them, acknowledge the idea and the name of the person you've learned from. I find this so admirable. This is the behavior of an honorable man. And I think people should recognize this about you. Thank you for setting a good example.

    What a great idea! Thank you for sharing.
    I often make such little lights for the children to play with so that I'm not as bothered when they get lost. I usually carry at least two lights with me other than my phone (and it's saved my hide more than once) but I'll probably order a new set of scales just for the fun of building it. One thing I've found with making them as "keyring lights" is that it matters a great deal what electrical tape you use, my preference is 3M Super 33+ and at 5-10× the cost it's still worth it.
    I can also imagine that with an angled slider and a slot cut into the scale it could be switched-on but that would significant increase the risk of it being drained in your pockets.

    Awesome idea! If you have an old TV or similar remote that's not working anymore, you could cut out the rubber dome membrane from one of the buttons and place it directly on the battery with the LED contact poked through the side of the dome. I tried to fix an old Roku remote a few weeks ago, and seeing it this video now I can understand how ingenious the rubber dome membrane is in cheap remotes.

    What an awesome idea! With a rubber band you don't have to push the scale, so I think it could be a kind of an "on" switch. The disadvantage of the rubber band around a Swiss Army Knife is that it's make time consuming to open the tools. So I'm still thinking about a micro on/off switch. As soon as I'll find the solution I'll let you know!

So, I went to your channel and looked… sure enough, I had been unsubscribed from your channel… this has been happening to me more and more here in the past couple of months… well, I resubscribed and went to check to see what I had missed… I’m all caught up now!!!!!

  • @VinlandAlchemist

    HEY! Now that's an idea I never would have thought of on my own - BRILLIANT! And it only took a tiny minimum of alteration of the scale... if I was only told about the idea, I would have imagined it to be far more complicated, but seeing it in video, it proves to be much simpler a task! (Oh, and would you forgive me, for a little kind-hearted constructive criticism? "Series" only exists in a plural form - there is no singular form, so 'serie' never existed as a real word... a single entry in a series is an 'episode' ❤ ) Another thought I never realized, is the ability to directly shape the LED itself with a file - that never would have occurred to me! Of course, I'm not very smart ahahaha THANK YOU for this video! I definitely want to try this!
