Robin RC-32-1A shoe sewing machine (AKA Chinese shoe patcher) Example pieces
Переглядів 3,7 тис.Рік тому
The Robin RC-32-1A is a hand-crank sewing machine. Designed to allow precision sewing in tight places through tough materials, it is a uniquely useful tool for hobbyists, DIY'ers, and anyone who wants to be able to make quick, lasting repairs to hard-working gear.

Переглядів 8 тис.Рік тому
Let me know in the comments what you want to see me make with this machine! The Robin RC-32-1A is a hand-crank sewing machine capable of sewing through multiple layers of tough materials. It is, by far, the cheapest walking foot sewing machine currently available on the internet (around $130 USD at the time of this video). There's a lot to say about this simple machine, not all of which is good...
My Bike Touring Setup (short trip version)
Переглядів 1604 роки тому
This is a setup for a short, two day trip in early spring. There are as many ways to pack a bike as there are roads to travel, but some folks asked me what I carry, so here is an example.

Extraction of Open Comedones (Blackheads) by Pore Strip - MICROSCOPE
Переглядів 422 тис.12 років тому
The yellow substance is mostly keratin and sebum. Its yellow color is partly owed to melanin. On this particular trial, it appears that the pore strip adhesive did not fully set. This is the source of the clear, sticky fluid at around 00:19 and at various other points throughout the video. I have added footage of a gopher to leave you with a more pleasant, less feverish feeling as you go back t...
