Reasonably Intelligent Maker
Приєднався 24 лис 2007
I am a reasonably intelligent person and a maker. I am neither an idiot nor a dummy. And neither are you. I can learn to make anything, and I can help you to do it too.
Let's Compare Nova G3-D with Nagu 10600
I bought this Nagu 10600 on Amazon for around $70. Their add copy claims that it is compatible with Nova G3 for jaws and accessories. Here is the exact ad copy:
"""
Dedicated to fit 1" x 8tpi lathe spindles. Accepts full range of NOVA & Record Power Chuck Accessories
Anti-release spindle lock (reversible); Ensures chuck will stay securely mounted on the lathe during forward and reverse turning applications
Fasten jaws with the included t-bar handle in order to quickly tighten screws and minimize stripping
Jaw provides precision when adjusting your slide alignment and positioning
Open back for easy cleaning and Auto safety stop feature-jaw slides can't protrude past the chuck body.
"""
This seemed like a bold claim, but I wanted a second chuck body because, well who doesn't? I don't enjoy the removing and replacing of 8 screws each time I want to swap jaws. I looked on the secondary market, but even used, people wanted more than $100. So I thought I would give this a try.
No one gave me anything. I spent my own money on all the equipment involved. I am not too proud to accept stuff, but so far, no one has wanted to give me anything :) I am not doing this to endorse any product, merely to show what it is, and how well it does or doesn't match up with the Nova product.
If you can think of any reasonable test to compare these in use let me know. Perhaps I will make a follow up video of it. (No promises... :) )
Just to be sure to say it again, "This video is NOT a paid advertisement, or endorsement, or sponsorship in any way."

This may not be the best way of doing this, nor is it intended as an example of best practices. It is intended as a video to share how I actually did it. It was minimally edited to remove long boring shots of my shoulder when I got in the way of the camera, and also the process of going through the grits of sanding, which I doubt anyone wants to see. Otherwise all cutting is real time. Please u...
TDD Java Kata PrimeFactor

Let's do a TDD kata. This is the prime factor kata, one of my favorites. I am using the Gradle build tool, Spock unit testing framework, and implementing a table in the groovy test. Oh, yeah, and it is being done in Java language, using the Intellij IDE. I hope to encourage more people to do TDD as well as "Test First", and of course, develop the muscle memory with kata. There are plenty of the...

Let's make some soap with the "aRTy O'SHLeP" (Room Temperature Oils Steaming Hot Lye Process). I will make 3 soap batches in real time based on having masterbatched oils, and with the aid of some "mise en place" preparation of my scent, color, and texture materials. I do my best to keep talking so that there is not a lot of dead air. This is direct from the video without any editing just to kee...

First attempt at screencast. Using Blender 2.80 and using a couple of arrays to make a tapered leg table. This is a precursor to making all sorts of tables, and will be shown in a different video. If anyone has specific interests or can't follow from just the screen keys (shown in the lower left corner) let ma know and I can make a more detailed one of that specific technique. Learning lots of ...

Plastic Jesus on the #1 Cigar Box Guitar

Here is my first cigar box guitar build. It is also my first attempt at playing and singing at the same time. Not only that, but it is my first attempt at video editing after the fact to combine an mp3 with a bunch of images. @ShaneSpeal here is my first CBG, thanks for all the inspiration, and information!
🙋♀️ Dr Rich's mom here
Very nice one!
Thanks!!
Thanks, new subscriber here. I learned quite a bit from this video, especially about eyebolt tuning/tuners. And the action adjustment with bolt width was cool & simple, ez pz!
Thanks for subscribing! I hope over time I can put out some useful information!
🙋♀️ you popped up in my feed! Hope you and your wife are well and still seeing Dr Rich!
Glad I made it into your feed. Forgive me if I don't recognize your nick though.
Teknatool (Nova) does not sell their parts to anyone else. So, these are either counterfeit or being sold illegally.
Thanks for that info. I never heard from either tool company about this. So thanks for that information.
I want one
I have some available
Had the sound turned to the max and did not hear a word you said.
I am so sorry. I will do better next time. You have to not only turn up the volume in the app, but also on the physical device. Anyway, I have different equipment to use, and will definitely do better next time.
If you do another review, close the jaws all the way without the worm screw and see if they all tighten together
Great idea!
Thank you for doing the comparison!
My pleasure!
Hello can you mount the chuck and do a run out test. See if there are any difference there as well.
That sounds like a good idea. Unfortunately, I don't have a working indicator gauge. Next time I see a good deal on one I will pick it up.
Sound is ??????
Yes, I have been told that the sound is low. You can hear it if you turn up the device volume. I made a poor choice in recording this way. I will need to get an external microphone or go back to voice-over in the future :(
I'm trying to watch your video, but I CAN"T HEAR YOU!!!
Sorry about that, I tried to record the voice and video at the same time rather than just the video and do a voice over. Apparently the microphone is a little low. I am able to hear it by just turning up my volume :( I will try something different for the next one, since it shouldn't be necessary to crank the volume to hear "my" voice :)
@@AbsintheOnYT I tried cranking the volume up , but I still could not hear you.
Okay, I missed a final step and there are 3 more lines of code that can be removed. Does anyone see what they are?
👏👏👏
Thanks, you are way too kind. :)
Nice! I'd like to see more!
Nice looking soap. I bet you could sell that cutter to many soapers! I love those inexpensive silicone molds. When I want to make a smaller batch of soap or I'm creating a new recipe and design, I'll use that mold. Way back in the day when I first began soap making, I hated lining my wooden molds. Then silicone molds began appearing for baking. I used those expensive baking loaf and cake molds incased in wood for insulation and support, not an ideal fit or soap shape. lol Finally good quality professional silicone/wood molds came to soap makers made from craftsmen like you! Pardon me if I'm assuming incorrectly that you're a cabinet maker from the looks of your shop. Soapers love looking at "soap porn". So if I can make a suggestion, give a close up view of your soap so other soapers can enjoy too.
Sorry to take so long to respond, but I never got a notification :( Thanks for your kind comments and advice. The original "expensive" ones are sort of angled on the sides, and definitely make for some funny looking soap. I have known people to trim them square. But, that seems like more work than it is worth. I do some cabinetry, but quite a few other things as well. You just happened to be in the "cabinetry" angle view of the shop :)
Tutorial?? Please :)
What type of tutorial would you be interested in?
By the way, if you liked this video, check out the cutting afterwards. You can watch me fumble trying to get the first one out of the mold right after I tell you how easy it should come out :) ua-cam.com/video/BBVTpl2FfK0/v-deo.html
Just wait for all the soapers to get cross with you... no gloves etc
I believe I addressed that. I never use gloves, but always use eye protection. I am not but a few steps from the sink and I can quickly flush any soap batter or even lye water that I may get splashed on my skin. However, I don't shame anyone who chooses to use gloves or any other PPE for that matter. You have to know what is best for yourself and protect accordingly. Also, some things (like mixing lye in glass) I definitely don't normally do, but in this case I wanted to be able to show the liquid going clear. I think I mention it quite a number of times that this is not how it is supposed to be done. But in making a video, there are some risks that one chooses to take in order to get the correct shot, or visual representation, not unlike removing guards from power tools like table saws. So I do think I have explained how to properly do what I am doing, and effectively warn against things I have specifically chosen not to. Let me know if I have missed any, and I will post a message accordingly. Thanks for the comment. :)
@@AbsintheOnYT I dont have an issue with it, I wear gloves but always ends up on me.... messy.. but some of our ilk can get very pedantic.
@@tukicat1399 So far, I have received only positive response on this. I did expect to see issues with the "safety police" but so far I have not, thankfully. Certainly, this is neither a beginner's video, nor a beginner technique. So perhaps those who are interested enough to actually watch it, mostly already know how they choose to use PPE and aren't too concerned with the way I am doing that aspect. Then again, as of right now, it only has 76 views, so perhaps I am not getting enough exposure for people who might make some of those comments to have even seen it. :)
@@AbsintheOnYT I enjoyed, (and liked) I did like the polystyrene box for setting, good option,
@@tukicat1399 I am glad you enjoyed it. I have tried to share and explain a few of these ideas to people over the years, but sometimes it helps to make a video. This seemed like one of those times. :) At one point I made a few tutorials and just took a bunch of still pictures and wrote up some text and build a web page. I may revisit a few of those and see how they come out as videos. As for the cooler box, I have found lots of people get concerned when they see the giant bull's eye of partial gel. This will usually assure me that I get full gel. I know other people jump right into the freezer with their soaps to avoid gel altogether, and I can understand how they might like the lighter colors and such, but I am of the opinion that fully gelled soap will resist "melting" when dealing with a little standing wetness. Not sure it really makes that much of a difference, but it is measurable. I do have 3 similar cooler boxes, and they were all free. I couldn't bear to toss them, I just knew that they would come in handy for something, some day :)
Great job sir, playing and build.
Thanks! Both were fun!
"That's Poppy!" I love that fret board 😊
Thanks, they are fun to make. And with a little practice it can be done without gluing one's fingers together :D:D:D
@@AbsintheOnYT all in good time 😅
Would a bigger csn give it more bass?
The can acts as a resinator, it provides volume. Bass is determined more by the size of the string. When you use a fatter string you get more bass, but less volume so it helps to have a bigger sounding resinator. I did one with a low e string. if the sound check isn't here it is on my Instagram, you can hear the difference.
I just uploaded the one using the Low E-string you can hear the difference. Since I can't tell if you are a subscriber or not, here is the link: ua-cam.com/video/B6RKM0jYsjY/v-deo.html
Use a mirror modifier on the x and y axis i think this will make it even easyer
I always wanted to do my presentations with the statement "You absolutely have to do this exactly the way I do, because my way is the only way." I fear the sarcasm would be lost. I may do another with mirroring, I just thought this would be a cool way to examine the "array" technique.
Bittersweet day, this guitar sold. I hope she has a happy home. :)
This is almost asmr!
Thanks! That is about the best compliment I could imagine. I am a little self conscious about hearing my own recorded voice. Your comment gives me some assurance that I don't sound like Gilbert Gottfried.
Feed the bees!! 😄
Hungry little girls! :)
Hi Bradley, thanks! I'm using a different design I'll show you when it's done.
Cool! I look forward to it.
Well done...
Thanks.
Nice guitar. ..
Thanks! It was fun to build.
I build many guitars too.... 👍✌
