- LIKE/FAV for Paper Goodness! Can I borrow your pencil? Music Below:
Here are the items you will need.
1. A number 2 pencil (Better if you get a 2B pencil from the art store)
2. A thick piece of paper
3. A single LED
Graphite is a pretty terrible electric conductor but it works well enough to do some cool stuff with paper.
We can actually make a fully working circuit as well as a flashlight using the 3 items above. Check it out and let
us know what you think!

MONSTER? That's the cutest "monster" I've ever seen!
that is true
Yea Thats a dog xD
I know right So cute
The confusion with lead and graphite is, for many years Lead has been used before in pencil. But they were removed and changed to graphite, mainly because lead is very poisonous and harmful to the human body.
People, lead is a type of metal, and graphite is carbon (like diamond). The reason we still call it lead is because the name is stuck as a trademark to pencils. Just go with the flow.
Thank you for explaining
Thanks
Zoink foo Lead was never used in pencils... It was used in ancient Roman styluses. Please do research before shitposting. Thanks.
Peacocks Gaming
My bad, guess we just ended up calling them lead for some reason.
Zoink foo can I use your statement for my research about pencils
This is how they make the iPhone 6.
Yup.
+Fatrick Stare You are getting there... Close
samsung s7
+Fatrick Stare i think he really has got onto something !!!
and the transistors are made of erasers
This is like redstone.
Shut up I like mine craft
If it helps kids get interested in circuitry, then great.
Oh god it is XD
thats why i must install again the minecraft to make a machine using redstone,,,
Joseph Kreifels II no
i showed this to my science/technology teacher and we did it in class and it was supper fun :)
mind blowing
Its pretty cool and I like the idea. Good work mate.
ThankYou , you were my inspiration for my new channel!!! Love Your Videos !
My nephews (ages 5 & 9) love doing projects inspired by you. thanks for helping me become the cool auntie
Hii
them boys have hit pubertty now crazy
@@connr1662 i know! 😢 time flies
@@LayDBe how old they now lmao?

Cute monster!
I have to try this now, just to see what i can make. This video was too cool!
Futuristic!!!! so very Interesting! the paper flashlight was Amazesing
Can I make a 4-Bit computer with this technique
CJ G Theoretically
+CJ G But how can you form a logic gate? This technique can only replace the wire.
qugde yah so this is better than soddering a board and mess up
+CJ G yes,and the advantage of the technique is it can twist compare with the board
qugde You can try and emulate the action of Logic Gates in some way, or just use actual logic gates in the form of transistors on the paper.
did someone make a computer with this_?
Doomsicle im not and its possible theorically
Oyun Öncesi Define "Computer" If you have an incredibly broad definition where a computer is literally anything electronic then yes you could make a "computer." However if you define it as something that can process and store data than things get a little complicated.
Killagoku PC you are right but still possibble. Everything is made by + - current. So even it doesn't worth making a computer by pencil, its still posibble theorically. But you will need a huge sheets of paper to make a computer
You cant make a Motherboard, Graphics Card, RAM, and a Processor from an 3.5 wat light... Btw an average PC needs to have 350-430 Watt
***** of course. thats why people wont do this even its still posibble
Reminds me of my overclocking days when some pencil marks on a AMD Athlon XP would unlock it (IIRC), and some marks on the new $550 video card along with the Vaseline on the top side so when the TEC got to cold and made it frost up on top or the phase change cooling on the cpu dripped condensation on it it wouldn't fry it.
In jail pencils can be used by sticking a wire in the electric outlet and touching the pencil across to light cigarettes and stuff but you had to be careful to make sure there was enough resistance or it would blow the breaker on the TV and the guard would have to reset it
This is amazing! It will save so much time!
Anyone else notice the remix of "People of the Mountain" from FFX in the video?
yup.
Make a easy fire starter
Hi!!! Thank you because without you, I wouldn't be able to win 1st place for my science fair. I'm in grade 7 and most of my classmates admired my work. Thank you and god bless!!! I hope you can help more people!!!
This would have been great for my science fair idea! This was the most coolest thing I've ever seen. It would be really funny if someone came up with this idea because they did it at the last minute for a project and got an A.
Could you do logic gates?
Defining light bulbs to 2.4,8,16,... and providing an adequate circuits will make the logic gate.
You could make a 50::50 voltage divider with two input terminals. If only one of the inputs is high, then the signal output is 50% of V(source). If both inputs are low, signal out is GND. If both inputs are high, signal out is V(source). With the proper amount of amplification and attenuation to accentuate the difference, you have a resistive "and" gate.
Technically, it's just basic electronics, so if you draw a real life logic gates, it should be able to work
No, you would need doped silicon in order to make transistors.
Can a paper circuit overheat and catch fire?
***** Thanks! Since I come up with a lot of ideas but know little about the stuff I have to ask questions that may seem stupid to a person who does these things all the time. I just wonder how well these things work when you're trying to use them for something other than science projects. lol
+John Young Hi I like your video relating to paper circuits.Something I also found useful for how to make electronic circuits was Elumpa Circuits Expert Alchemist - search google if you like.
+John Young Graphite has a resistance of 7.6 Ohm for an average 10cm , that is a lot of voltage wasted
If you make the circuit go in circles yes
+John Young even a rock could catch fire
This new verb "macgyvering" humors me a bit. I think the quick demo on how to make a paper circuit helps communicate further Forest M. Mims III intended.
Nice remix of Mt. Gagazet theme from FFX. I almost couldn't tell!
Nice experiment also. Very cool.
I used this method to link my fire alarms by doing that silly trick we all done at home when u were young. Drawing on the walls...
Now I can make stuff with out wires
I literally cried a tear of joy when I saw this
My background is in visual art but have recently gone on a geology and chemistry info wiki-binge. I can't believe I've lived for 33 years and didn't know that graphite is a semimetal and conductive. Of course my next thought was "wait.. does that mean you can make a circuit board on paper??" and youtube has provided in satiating my curiosity.
As an artist I'm happy to see that the experimenter used good artist graphite to conduct their experiment.
There are some "pencils" that draw in metal
No he is just simply using a pencil because a pencil has graphite in it
+Everything in between he probably knows that he is just stating that a pencil/pen can write in metal ink
Vat19 for the win!!!
guys calm down its not a dog its a lizard
Catchy and very creative!
I used this to fix the traces on my keyboard, pretty bloody useful
create two wireless chess board. one player at each table. X Y magnets move the other players pieces
What kind of dog is that at 2:43?
My money's on Shih Tzu, though it could be a Lhasa Apso... at one time they were actually considered the same breed (with Lhasa Apso's being a bit bigger).

Really
Is that real sir
(With due respect)
Monster
Dood, I discovered you with this video.
I'm kind of devastated, you were super young. Requiescate in pace
Two words ...MIND BLOWN
I did this for science class and I got a 4 yesssss
george chauca I thought only Serbia had the numerical grading system
3G 1PC no? Poland too
and germany, and ehh whole europe i think?
3G 1PC and in the us in some schools. My elementary school used it
I HAVE THAT PENCIL!
You act like it's some rare pencil shut the fuck up
lmao 10/10
THIS IS SO FREAKIN COOOOll
Dude i did not know you could do this SOOO coll i Subed to you my man
Finally someone has made minecraft redstone in real life.
didnt work.=( LED NUKED itsself =D
LOL
That wasn't funny
You need to draw a bigger resistor so the LED doesn't burn out.
This has been in my watch later for years..
The use of a graphite pencil is interesting since the material is conductive, it would be necessary to test, I do not know if I have already done it, what difference is there in using B 2b 3b 4b there are perhaps conductive differences and they could be seen instead of using a led use a tester or multimeter and see how the values vary another option that occurs to me is to use the old carbon paper which is based on graphite which stains the fingers when touched, the new ones do not work because they are not based on graphics and use binder
can you charge your phone with that XD
XD nice 👍👍👍
Yea... It would be harder but yea...
Technically yes, but it would take forever. Realistically, absolutely not, paper will end up burning or phone won't get charged really worth anything.
Mufin Tco you could charge it but yoz could destroy your phone
XD that wasn't funny
12 cent says half the comment section is filled with comments like "FAKE! PINSULS HAS LED, NOT GRAFITE, STUPID" or something.
Double that says my comment will be replied with "no, they're made of graphite"
Why you offer only 12 cents? you can get rich!
I believe that Lead is kind of conductive, so i guess it could work either way.(i don't know if Lead is conductive or not)
Lotan saltoun People these days... (not talking to you)
Technically I believe that graphite and lead are both kinda the same thing. If you think about it...
Its really cool I tried it my self I used a lead pencil so it could be more conductive but talking about paper thin though
Cool, never thought about that
GRAPHENE!
Graphite dude.
This is another way to make graphene, or have u not been paying attention?
Jason Morris What is? Your statement makes no sense.
TheFishCostume You can make graphene by drawing on a piece of paper, or silicone. Its not exact, but it works.
Jason Morris you still need to remove layers of graphite to become graphene... i think!? lol
i like dancing
i like singing
i like science :)
Great experiment for kids. Who knows what interest you may spike in a young mind. Maybe a future student of the sciences?
verry instructive !! congratulations !
I did this for my science fair project it didn't work because the resistance was to great and were 18.6 k OHMs soooooo this does not work sorry
You've just seen it working.
I dont belive this to be true, its not revealed enough there is enough room for him to hide cables and stuff.
Low quality pencils contain a higher percentage of clay, which is an even worse conductor than graphite. The pencils in the video were expensive art pencils, with high graphite content.
Sale M I literally tested it but I just used pure graphite
I tried this out in my physics class a few months ago. It works.
this is cool please try and h8 m8 oh w8 this comment is going steer a lot of h8 sorry but i r8 this 8 out of 8 but with 8 in side words but m8 this is just b8 so h8 but i gotta s8 or i will be l8 for a d8 cause the g8 aint gr8 at w8ing what can i say it can't make a change of s8
"this is just bait so hate but i gotta seight"?
Amazing 8 poetry m8
Graphite is actually a very good conductor. Its just that it is not a solid piece and just a bunch of powder, so that makes it less good of a conductor and a good resistor.
Firstly, THAT IS COOL! Secondly, I'm surprised not many others said that is cool

Not gonna happen boiii.
dont work!!!
So satisfying
Yeah this works cause the layers of graphite on the paper become graphene which is a great conductor and is strong
I call bullshit.
Try using the scientific method before you come to a conclusion, especially one as silly as yours. Get a graphite pencil, a piece of paper, some scrap electronics, and there you go. Better yet just take a car battery and then just hold both ends at the same time.
I dont think the "Intellectually Gifted" get sarcasm.
Yeah its really easy to tell whether or not someone is sarcastic without any kind of context.
Know what? Just fuck you.
Thewayofthechopstick hah
man, i forgot how good your cameras were back in the days!
That's awesome
thats so flipping cool!
So AWSOME
Always wanted to do that . soo awsome.
Been watching this over and over since 2012, just realized this is technically the real life counterpart of redstone, if anything else
Quello è figo❤
As you were drawing with the dark graphite, I caught myself blowing on the screen
awesome dude
thats really awesome.... why didn't i saw this channel b4... :(
pretty cool
miss the videos like this
i am going to use this for my science project thank u man
this is brilliant
Good Job, I Love the video
I know that electric motor contacts are made of graphite. I have several graphite rods found near an abandoned smelter. I want to make a switch that can carry alot of current without contact welding the switch which results in a runaway closed circuit. Bad. I could probably get the same results from a fat piece of lead or brass. But graphite is also a lubricant and may work better if it doesn't cut current like a resistor.
There is metal in the pencil. If you notice, it reflects when you paint a part with a pencil. Metals also reflect. The metal also transmits kwlem for electrical conduction.
Ice Wizard glass also reflects doesnt make it a metal...
Of course it does contain metal but your explanation to why it does makes no sense.
Loving the monster x
Nice work
Awesome. Thank you very much
cool idea!
This is awesome...! I actually tried doing this experiment with a pen it's using the same concept but unfortunately it did not work.. So, with having this knowledge, are the possibilities limitless.. ?
that is so cool i'm testing it in my class
I love your final fantasy background music.
The king dude ur vids r sick
A very interesting concept... May I try it?
I tried to do the sane things several times: I got the resistance of this "graphite-on-paper" nearly several MegaOhms per inch (width nearly 0.05 inch)!!! It was absolute impossible to light a led or do any other useful things with it.
Love that dub step!
wow its really great
Put a multimeter to it and measure the resistance. Cool video!
that is so cool.
So cool
I love it
Hey. Pretty cool!
I'm going to use your video in one of my article..
if you dont have LED or other light bulb and are NOT working near easily flammable stuff you can use a short piece of the pencil/graphite as a light bulb itself, or a fire starter for that matter if you touch it with a stick.
nice one concept
Awesome!
so good
Here's the thing! When you draw a line with your graphite pencil you are depositing carbon on paper. Carbon is present in resistors. And if you are drawing thin lines, you are essentially "Drawing" a resistor. :) But if you make the lines thicker, you are drawing a conductor (with a pretty high resistance though). But I guess the resistance will decrease once you make it thick enough!!
