Welcome to the freaky realm of the DASLAB. At DASLAB we have fun learning and diving into food preparation, tips and tricks, Machine and electronics repairs of all kinds, experiments, investigations, science concepts, music, inventions and general observations about the world around us. We try and learn something along the way and have a few laughs. You neve know what is going to be new. You never know what is going to go right or wrong, but that is half the fun. That is why we often say "WTF" at the DASLAB . "Wow, That's Fun" or "Why's That Flying" or "Where's The Funnel?". Keep an ear open for the WTF and let us know what you found in the comments.

EMCO Mill head mounted to its own XY table

From an EMCO compact 5 lathe/mill combo. I was tired of having to transform my machine from a lathe to a mill all the time. so I took that rather ridged mill head and mount and fastened it to a cheap XY table from VEVOR.

Why did this heating pad Fail? Sunbeam Heating Pad Fault Light on. No Heat. But Why?
Was wondering, I have a Maax 460 Mach3 hot tub Supposedly with a Balboa control board Part number # 54301-04, If i was to uninstall it and send it to you would you check it out the hot tub seller tells me it would be ridiculous dollars to fix. it has an error code of Eather 5nb or Snb be willing to pay for your expert consult.
Thanks I dont want your money. I want YOU to try. If it is broken, then you cant make it any worse. My quick look showed me this below: Well, since snb means "sensor b" and is telling you that one of your sensors (the one plugged in to the connection marked "sensor b") is bad, I would say test the sensors. They are the 2 black nuts on each end of the heater, with the gray wires. Turn off power and switch them at the circuit board. If it then says sna, you have a bad sensor.
Beating a dead horse, aint ya?
thanks for stopping by. I'd like to visit your channel. I bet I could learn how its done.
You can't always buy new ones. I put mine in my ultrasonic cleaner with simple green and water. They are like new. FYI 86' Honda
That is great to know. I am happy to see that there are other chemicals that will work. Honestly, my solution gives you a few weeks working time, but it is never even close to "new". Also, at least 80% of people I have met have 84's. I think 85's and 86's are rare. Good for you!
Hi! I got a magnetic dipstick installed, but am somewhat concerned as i read on Amazon reviews that the little magnet tip can sometimes fall off. I have no clue what is all insides where the oil goes and was wondering should that little piece of magnet falls off inside, will it damage anything in there? Thanks in advance.
go to 16:50.. you can see that there is no OIL PUMP, but a slinger. the chances of a magnetic tip getting caught in that are very low (not zero) so I would think that you are ok. You could also try to ensure that the magnetic tip did not come off at all. Drill it with some wire?
Buy new ones👍👍👍
I'll pay you @100,000,000.00 if you can fund me new ones!
OK, I had this problem and mine was in worse shape. It wouldn't just go down by pulling it forward. Do NOT use a heat gun to alter the plastic, that is a dangerous idea! I simply ran the dryer for about 45 minutes on the highest heat setting then I bent the plastic back into the proper position with a small metal claw hammer. I believe that this video does show the value of THINKING before you act.
All good comments, thanks for sharing.
Thank you- this is literally driving me bonkers! Our clothing is twisting & getting stuck on the sides!!!! I appreciate you taking the time to find a solution & making the video!!
You are so welcome!
This doesn't work.
This does work. I used the same formula and it worked exactly as shown in the video.
Great. I am glad I could help.
Now that the Paris Olympics are over, your channel is all we’ve got! Way better than Australian break dancing 🤪
Hey, if they break it, I'll fix it!
I'm going to try it!
Please do! It is so easy to use and the food tasted great... So quick too.

Is there anyway to only take the front piece off?
If you mean the front of the plastic holder, Well that when you have to get the drill out. To access the screws.
Lost film footage? More likely you’re planning a “Han shot first” director’s cut. Forget titanium and diamond…how about transparent aluminum? ua-cam.com/video/DduO1fNzV4w/v-deo.htmlfeature=shared

Well. I finally got the thing going. It lasts for about 20 days before stopping. The spring is probably 60 years old, and was wound rather tight. So I am not surprised. It keeps good time. I had one lock washers sort of thing in the wrong position and it binded (bound up) the entire works. once I figured that out, I could get the thing off of my work bench. I do love working on clocks though.
Looking forward to seeing it all come together!
Lots of videos in the works. you should see it in person.
Das Good! ;)
thanks!
I’ve no experience with 123 blocks, so I am waiting with bated breath 👅 to see what you gonna do with these bad boys!

Sorry guy you have not any idea how self porpelled works.

Thank you!! This helped me fix this just now!! Yay!! I'm so excited, haha!! 💝
Glad I could help!
Just saying...... you didn't have the gpu plugged in.....
You are right, that could be the issue.
@@daslab68 it also could be some of the cpu socket/cpu pins bent (depending on Intel or amd) or if you check the ram and clean it
Thank you so much.
You're welcome!
I just found your channel. I wish you well, I subscribed. I love projects lol
Thanks for subbing!
I have one of those 120v dc treadmill motors as well. Its a fairly simple motor. You honestly dont need the encoder to control the speed. It is useful for feedback circuit but not necessary to drive the motor. You can use a sinple 120v DC pwm control to change the speeds. Not sure how easily it is to find that but its not that complex either. Basically you hook one side to +120v DC and the minus side you control with pwm through like a mosfet. Changing the length of the pwm will change the speed. If you are electronicly enclined you could build your own circuit pretty easily. But Im sure there are probably some off the shelf DC PWM controllers that will do exactly what you want if you search for them.. If you can get one that accepts the encoder it will have the added benefit that as you put load on the motor it will automatically increase the pwm to maintain the same speed which might be useful but may be harder to find. Good luck!
Thank you All good points. On this particular board, if you dont plug in the encoder, and it is not sensing the feedback, it will come up with an error after about 20 seconds. You are 100% right about the PWM. I bought one off of Amazon for about 20 CAD. the problem with this is, that I have a hard time finding exactly which pin is the PWM signal. This is not a common board and I can not find a schematic for it. I have a scope. I did try it once. It turned but I ended up smoking the low ohm resistor that is in parallel with one of the relays. I believe that I will have to use this as a unit with all of the components. We will see!!!!
Laughing my ass off here. Happened to run across this while playing in shead [removing blade,trying to figure out why blade moves left to right ] on cheap ozito drop saw. It's winter here so brandy not beer. Thanks champ. Was fun to listen to you while I'm doing similar thing.
that makes me happy. Thank you.
Gröhhhhhll...
My thoughts exactly.
Thanks so much! This was driving me crazy. Could find no lint or other blockage. Everything looked nice. This turned out to be the same issue. Dryer is almost nine years old as of 2024. So assume after awhile the heat warps the plastic.
I have helped many people with this vid. I am so glad I made it.
Same, but it should not be warping the plastic ever. Possibly plastic made of some cheap material?! Seems like a manufacturing issue and based off of how many people have this problem maybe there was a recall at some point?! I'll look into and if I find anything I'll come back here!! Thanks again to this Man for helping me!! God Bless!!
There was a lawsuit that must have settled out of court because I can’t find any judgment. This model is known for having lint trapped inside the machine where it is impossible for every day people to get to. When we took ours apart there were LAYERS of lint. Sheets of the stuff. On top of that and the lint trap warping and not fitting properly this model really should have had a recall or better yet never been able to be sold in my opinion.
Great video liked the bas tard screws & the k nife !
Haha, you gotta have fun!!!
Mmmm. Like the Nighthawk. CB750SC?

Error is "insufficient power applied" Recap the M/B.
A big job. but you might be right.
You should have drilled Out bOth of the hOles in order to gain the extra clearance that was required there, plus you also needed to clear out both threads in the bar too in the dovetail bar in order to remove the threads from the hOles as having two adjoining threaded holes one in the dovetail plus the one that you are screwing into means that you can not lock the two pieces together as the threads will not align properly, for when you thread the locking bolts through they will not engage and pull tight, that is a pretty basic fundamental mistake people whom have a lack of training & do not possess the required knowledge in the field of precision or basic mechanical engineering often make. Getting a job done correctly takes a gOOd deal of skill so to get things right the first time takes real skill.
I agree. Thanks for taking the time to comment. It will help others.
You're amazing! It worked! Thankyou
I am so happy I could help
Mine is stuck flashing red at “high” heat setting. After 5 years of daily use, it finally gave out. I was hoping you can help me fix it 😅
This indeed worked for me as well. Thank you 👍
Great to hear!
Thanks so much! It was driving me crazy!
Glad it helped!
Good helpful video, ...don't listen to these morons. How long did they stay flexible? I tried a heat gun, but they harden up in about 5 minutes.
Honestly it stayed soft for a few weeks. I had to put these carbs on and off a few times. A heat gun does help, but when you use one, it wroks fast and stays really really soft.
@@daslab68the heat from engine hardens all rubbers that have this done to them with anyproduct personally it's better than using a hair drier and constant leaks , do this one it seens to retighte. Up and harden but it def seals them shut ,so it's a thumbs 👍 from me ,
Mine started doing this 😒 going to wait till the next time I have to rip it apart. Appreciate the video!
Glad I could help
I have one that failed--heats up when you hold it down manually, but doesn't stay down. Contacts in good condition--sprayed DeOxit. Didn't work. And they still spark, too. It has one of those front panels with LEDs and pushbuttons on a board, and it's dead. Cleaned the pin connector. Still dead. Could be a failed solder connection on the board, but nothing visible and no way to diagnose. You added a screw at the end, but you didn't explain how it fixed it. Also, is it safe to continue to use a toaster that still sparks?
So... It is an electro magnet that KEEPS it held down. See if that is working. The screw was missing. that is sort of why the entire thing was loose and not aligned. So I only replaced a screw. I didn't add an extra. As far a sparking goes. That is normal. And Yes I still use mine. It still sparks and makes great toast. Good Luck.
thanks for the video. i am thinking of getting this lift
I love it, I have had no real issues with it. I use the foot pump most of the time. and always use the safety bar.
Mine failed with the flashing F. I bought another identical one and ohmed it out. 68 ohms across the outer pins, 38 ohms across the inner two pins.
good information
Congratulations to you, because watching this video gave me the courage to dismantle mine, which was a gift from my father. Congratulations!!!P.S. I speak of Brazil, although I have Canadian citizenship

yeah. quality is just not there.
That screw in the front is BS. Why would they do that?
Haha, Well Said! what were they thinking!
This doesn't even qualify as a teardown; I guess it could be called a "Rip-It"! Try this on a fullsize heating blanket and you'd have to call it a "sheet-y" disassembly! 😉😁
Haha, yes
