- Did you know that you can also store spaghetti noodles in a piece of bike tube? lolwut! ikr? Another rarely-considered fact is that bike tube works great for transporting liquid over distances. To do this, simply 1) tie a knot on one tube end, 2) fill with liquid, 3) tie on opposite end, and finally, 4) drape assembly over shoulders around head. Repeat until desired amount of liquid has been translocated. Where did you think the expression 'tubular' came from?
Note: do not allow children to swallow bike tubes.
one minute fifty-five seconds, one point, made to completion. i love it!
Really, the trick was already given away in the thumbnail. The video was just for validation. You just have broken expectations, because every video now has to start with a complete history of F-clamps, definitional discussion for all of the concepts/equipment involved, and entire minutes of creator promises, solicitations, and excuses.
Here, it's always been _Just the Tip._
@pocket83squared sometimes a complete history of the topic at hand is appreciated. such as in technology connections, where the entire channel is just about the things that midwestern man finds fascinating.
other times, i enjoy a snappy video about clamp control, such as here.
@@GirishManjunathMusic That's such a good channel (Technology Connections). He convinced us to stop using liquid dishwasher soap years ago. But you might've missed my point about the trend in videos around here; I meant that every simple video now seems to be a full-length exposé on the topic, because of the thirst for watch-time. Two minutes is too long for me to watch. This was a 5-second trick.
Excellent trick and even better video description. Personally I like to carry the sauce for the spaghetti in the tube. This way I can have a 5 star dinner while jogging.
This is why I watch pocket p. Just easy informative fixes for common problems
Brilliant and simple.
Thanks for the great tip!
Thanks for sharing. I typically use trigger clamps for workholding when sanding, but I'm still glad I know this trick now
Surprisingly, I've not owned any quick-grips. I've used them, and I would like a pair, but they're always either overpriced or junky knockoffs. When I was a roofer (and much meaner), there was a helper on our crew we'd call "quickgrip," as a disparagement for his being otherwise useless; as in, _hold this down while I cut, quickgrip._ Ranger bands still work better.
@pocket83squared Understandable. I've taken a liking to the Bremen brand from Harbor frieght, not the junky black ones. Useful as an extra pair of hands in odd setups
Look here, Mr. Pocket. We've talked about your thumbnails before. No red arrows, things circled, surprised face, or chewing them too short.
Neeto! Thanks
Happy New Year pocket Mr x something 😃
I do not own a bike... Darn! (only kidding). Thanks for the nice tip
Shit. Busted inner tubes... ANOTHER thing i should've be throwing out.
👍
😲 How did you cut the bicycle tube?
Scissors should do the trick ;)
In order from best to worst: forged 12" vinyl-siding cutting snips, utility knife (with a metal rule), scissors, hacksaw, teeth.
If you use a knife: a drop of mineral oil will make cutting rubber much, much smoother.

Okay, I'll rephrase my question. What kind of tube do you cut? I visualize a bicycle tube as looking similar to a hose. I don't get it. Are there tubes that are several inches wide? 🤔
Okay, I rewatched... you have to really stretch the tube - got it!
@@zac1375 Mine are common (2") mountain bike tubes. Pressed flat against the table, the tube measures about 1.75" in width. This makes a band that's somewhat smaller than a #32 rubber band, but it's also much stronger and longer lasting.
I think I'm qualified to say, I appreciate these videos that are accessible to the layman. Nothing wrong with admitting you're not the target audience for a high-brow thinking man's video!
Nobody's above simple tricks. High-brow thinking is just what happens when several simple tricks are used in a row to unlock another place to use one. Take the greatest ideas ever, and they're just a series of simple ideas stacked up.
