      Thanks! I'm a sucker for 80s related stuff, so that warms my heart! Might also explain why most of my builds are MacGyver grade engineering 😂

    Entertaining, but I always flinch when I see you spinning that circular saw blade without a safety guard. Take care, man! We like you with all your fingers :)

    • @TryingToBuildStuff
      @TryingToBuildStuff  2 года назад +4

      Thanks man, appreciate the concern! It wasn't spinning at full speed and it was spinning backwards, could've probably removed a finger either way though. I'll try to be a bit more careful going forward :)

    I love the face right in the danger zone without safety glasses. It took me a long time and many facial injuries before I learned to keep my face away from the action. I guess if something happened, you’d get viral status 🤘

    Simple differece: The Brit pronunciation is from the era when kings had their flatware made of "Aluminium".
    US pronunciation is from the era where "aluminum" is just the short stop between the mountain dew factory and the waste treatment plant.

    • @Amishhellcat
      @Amishhellcat 2 года назад

      Think like this man, an explosion moves a piston that crushes your magazine-fed cans, the movement then cycles a slot that ejects and punts away the crushed goods into a waiting plastic sack, that same movement cycles a slot to feed a new can from the magazine.

    Add a flywheel and don’t start with the can in position as the motor doesn’t have enough torque to crush it on its own. Use weight and momentum 👌

    • @TryingToBuildStuff
      @TryingToBuildStuff  2 года назад

      Great question! Mostly because the food is cheaper in Sweden than in Norway, the same goes for alcohol and tobacco. Sweden also has a wider variety of products in the grocery stores, making it a bit more fun to go shopping for food ;)
