      @@kk-kk352 Waaaay late, but you can make ice cream with the same ingredients much easier if you put the bag of them into about bag filled with ice and rock salt. The ice and salt mixture lowers the melting temperature of the ice and gets it really cold. Rock salt is used to melt ice on roads since mixing the two lowers the freezing temperature of water. It's a fun science experiment for kids. Just watch out for frostbite. It is a cool experiment that shows mixing things can lower their freezing temperature and boiling temperature.

    I had the popiel pocket fishermen that came out in a 1970's info commercial. Since I bought it at an indoor flea market it was used. It took me two weeks of taking it apart and putting it together in order to restore it. I loved that pocket fisherman I actually cought a few 2lb bass in it. It finally broke on me when I moved to a new apartment

    Nice to see the automatic can opener and the silicone oven mitt make an appearance as extras in this video!👍🏼

    I had the E-Z Tracer. It was a bit tricky to use, but as you saw in your video, it did work after a fashion.
