The Best windscreen for Compact Cameras and Cellphones using H1 Essential by Zoom
In this video I show you the best windscreen for compact cameras and cellphones. I also explore the design of the best windscreen you can use with the sound recorder H1 Essential by Zoom, analysing it's efficiency experimentally. A sound recorder is a very useful tool for replacing the soundtrack of a compact camera or cellphone, when we can't use a windscreen on the camera itself.

    My personal opinion is to buy a mid ranged (60-90e) mechanical "gaming" keyboard, as I have used mine since 2018 and the only keys that have worn off are the "A" and "S" keys. On membrane keyboards, I have even carved holes in them by daily usage in a year, so I HIGHLY discourage buying them unless you work, or use them, in a place that has water hazards as membrane keyboards are waterproof. I even have spilled liquids on my current mechanical keyboard and it has survived almost all of them, the down arrow key is damaged since last year, but still usable. Also, isopropyl alcohol is non-conductive, if used in 85-99%, so no fear of shorting anything really but do disconnect batteries as safety for laptops and bluetooth-based devices. The soldering portion is diabolical though, whatever works LOL.

      These membrane keyboards like that Dell are absolute battle tanks, you dont need to spend a fortune on a mechanical. You can restore worn out letters and symbols with some creativity. Just use white nail paint in this case and use paper or something where you can use it as a "graffiti" mold. Also spray can paint can work too. Your probably have used bad quality membrane ones, these tend to get their keys erased pretty fast. Also their plastic is pretty bad. The typical generic keyboard mouse combo of some prebuilts.

    • @RODsDIY

      If the lens barrel tries to extend, jerks and bounces back, that's a sign of something blocking the lens, most usually dirt. For this my suggestions might work. However, if it does not jerk at all, then most probably it's a software or electric issue, and for that you have to take it to a camera service.

      @RODsDIY 21 день тому

      If you need to cut perfect circles you can use something like this: ua-cam.com/video/tYtYsgO3oLs/v-deo.html But if you need to cut irregular curves , I believe, your best option is to follow a template with a scoring knife to create a path so you can use another tool with less risk of it running away. To go deeper and finish the job some people have suggested a hand saw, going slow and carefully, with the highest teeth per inch saw you can get (>32). If you can, a better option might be a Dremel with a cutting disc, but its difficult to get it around circles.

    • @RODsDIY
      @RODsDIY 21 день тому

      I have never cut shapes in acrylic - like letters or numbers - so I can't give you an experience based response. I would suggest first making a path for the cut following a template with a scoring knife, and once you complete the whole circuit move over to another tool like a Dremel with a cutting wheel or a fine teeth hand saw. Always practice first on waste material to see how you can get round corners without cracking the plastic.

      Some people say they have used different saws for similar thicknesses without any issue, but my experience with anything with teeth is not good. In any case the larger amount of teeth per inch should give better results (I would recommend over 32) and always going very slow. If you go to fast - like a power tool - the heat build up can leave the teeth covered in melted plastic.

    If uncomfortable with high speed machinery and/or cracking the plexi, I tried cutting plexi by hand with a coping saw, a hacksaw, and a fine-toothed wood saw. I had to be gentle with the coping saw since the blade wasn't supported. The problem was the frame of the coping saw couldn't fit through the cut. Same with the hacksaw. The wood saw worked fine. Though I did a small chip of the corner of the plexi, I do have some pointers. 1. Be patient. Cut slow so no heat or smell of melted plexi. 2. Keep checking every few millimeters to make sure you're cutting straight. 3. Don't force the blade to cut or put pressure on the plexi. 4. If you feel impatient or annoyed at cutting, stop, remove the blade from the cut, a put the project on pause until another day. 5. After cutting about 1/2 way through the plexi, be careful. The plexi can flex and crack or break. If need be, either begin the cut again on the opposite side of the plexi or flip the plexi over and resume cutting. Cutting on the opposite side applies pressure on the strongest part of the plexi, making it less susceptible to fracture until you get close to the halfway point. Problem is the slight deviation in height, depending on the amount of deviation. This may need filing the edge smooth, so be sure to add 1mm or 2mm to the true dimensions of the desired plexi. If filing a clean edge, again, go slow, be patient, and check the results. Flipping the plexi over and resume cutting gets the blades to start cutting on the opposite side of the cut. This makes the cutting easier and resume smoothly. You do have to watch for flex fractures, chipping, or going off the mark. But little by little, you'll get a good clean edge needing very little sanding or filing.

      @delanorrosey4730 Місяць тому

      @@Resolute900 I use a triangular rat tail file. I run the file diagonally towards the center to deburr the edges. Then, depending on the level of deviation, I'll file the raised sections, often checking it being level by laying one side of the triangular file across the edge. Or I'll use a small leveler. Rather time consuming since it files down fine particles of plexi, but it's better to take off thousandths of an inch at a time and have a proper edge rather than take off too much and have to restart. That's if I need an EXACT piece of plexi; I'll add 1mm to the measurement. Usually when I cut a piece of plexi, what I need it for has an acceptable tolerance I can get away with. Sometimes plus or minus 5mm to 10mm.

    A jigsaw works much better than the grinder for sheets 2mm and thicker. It takes a real ham fist to break the plastic with a jigsaw. Set the blade oscillation to the lowest setting and use a fine tooth metal cutting blade and you will not catch and break the plastic unless you are really clueless at how fast to feed a saw.

And another question I have, is: the liquid was yellow when you started the process, but, at the end it was clear. Is this because of the electricity? Or the metal? Curious, because the muriatic acid is most of the time yellow and I wonder if this clear liquid is still the diluted acid or if at the end is no longer usable.

      1) No, but I liked that colombian cofee and it's container 😁 2) The change of colour shows the chemical reaction has depleted the HCl. I understand the Cl bonds to the tin and the H goes of in the gas bubbles, so what's left most probably is water or a very watery HCl. Sorry but I don't remember the full ballanced equations. I would say it's no longer usable.

    I have sony camera and its like old for 10 yr or more. And the camera is stuck , its not opening . But uts charging smoothly, and the photos where we saw pictures working smoothly only the problem is. That isnt opening. I tried to remove the battery and put it again. So do i need to put new battery or memory card

      Hi, if it's charging well why would you need a new battery? Does it make any noise or attempt to eject the lens barrel after pressing the start button?

      @@withspf_ If it makes a noise but there is no attempt to eject the lens barrel, that noise might be something else. Evidently you have power but the software doesn't send an order to open the lens. With the info you have shared it seems that you have a software, something we can't fix withought a service technician. If the lens trembled a bit together with the start noise one could believe there is something stopping it from ejecting, and in that case it most probably could be dust or particles on the lens barrel.

    Will this method devalue the stamps? Thank you in advance! ❤

    • @RODsDIY
      @RODsDIY Місяць тому

      I understand that some kinds of stamps can loose value with this method. For example, mint stamps, those that still have glue on them. Also some stamps have more value if you keep them on the envelope. To know exactly which stamps, or in which cases you should not use this process you need an expert, and I'm not. If you have a very valuable stamp you should do nothing with it before seeking expert advice.

    In Brazil we also call it plastichumbo. They used to be common in exposed installations. Nowadays these cables are hard to find and expensive. We use conduits embedded in the masonry and the norms have made other installation methods more difficult.

    The technique for thinner sheets is spot on. For thicker sheets, a table saw is king for straight cuts and for 3mm - 1/8" and thicker curved pieces a band saw is an excellent tool.

    • @RODsDIY
      @RODsDIY Місяць тому

      By what you say I believe the issue is a software or electric problem. If that is the case I can't help you, and you should take it to a camera service. If it tries to extend the lens barrel, but then jumps back, then it could be meeting some dirt between the barrels, closing it down. In this case my tips might help you.

    • @RODsDIY
      @RODsDIY 2 місяці тому

      If your lens barrel extends but won't close most probably it has an electronic or software issue, in which case you should take it to a camera service. I can't help you with that. A stuck lens due to dust or other particles usually makes attemps to close or open but jumps back or can't complete the full extension or retraction.

    Thankyou for your informative video. I am using 3mm plexiglass . My project is to fit a sheet of plexiglass into a window frame so I can divert hose from portable air conditioner through crank window. Just wanted to confirm ..did you just score the acrylic or score first then cut with the Stanley knife ? 🇦🇺

    • @RODsDIY
      @RODsDIY 2 місяці тому

      If I remember well Wendy, I said in the video that it's a good idea to start off slowly to ensure a straight path is clearly established before you go full in with the knife (thinner acrylic) or scoring tool (3 mm, not so thin acrylic). With any cutting tool on acrylics and glass, it's very easy to run off to a side and ruin the cut. Thanks for your comment.
