My dad was a mechanical engineer and machinist. He loved making hot air engines. If he was alive I would send this to him and I’m sure he would make a little Sterling engine like this one. I really enjoy your videos. The hacks and gadgets are always fun to see.
Yeah, that would be great! I'd like to see something that I can take on my bushcraft trips and find a use for like pumping water or generate 12v energy etc. Just to have some fun with it and maybe it'll turn into something that's actually practical!
The stifling engine… I have the same one you’ve shown…works with a cup of ice water in a warm room also…invented in the 1700s I was told… but there are some people here on UA-cam posting videos os powering row boats with larger ones
Small warning for anyone thinking of purchasing the sand art, it is FRAGILE, at least the one I got. The glass shatters kinda easily and mine even fell out of the frame a little
I like the Stirling engine because it's a simple but elegant design. It's also a great way to learn about thermodynamics and the way energy can be converted from one form to another. It's also a very practical device, as it can be used to power small machines and devices. Plus, it's just a fun project to work on
Dave the first gadget can also be used by not rotating it all the way upside down and instead at an angle so more of the sand is in the water, but can still move down. This way it moves much quicker!
Funny you say that. I have a 17" one that is mounted to my wall with LEDs around the frame. Before I go to bed, I spin it over and turn the light on a deep blue color. It's so mesmerizing and helps me fall asleep. I really like it.
The Stirling engine is actually a great little thing, there are many options on all sorts of online shops, will probably get one as a gift for my grandma!
@@Робототехникаотдетейдлядетей fun fact: you can also use it with realy cold drink but you do need some ice in it but it doesnt go so fast with ice bc it works via a heat DIFFERENCE so you can also do that if you like to but tea does work better
That little steam engine is definitely a nice piece, but certainly for a private workspace. If people think noisy keyboards are bad, imagine that thing next door.
Dave is a perfect youtuber. He edits good, his voiceovers are pretty cool, Huh? And He's a kid-friendly youtuber. I watched him for a year. Keep up the good work Dave 🤍👍💪
I remember 30+ years ago playing with a couple rectangular sand art things and they were great fun. But I don't remember any air bubbles and I think they may have possibly been just coloured sand of different densities with no liquid. I've no idea what they were and never seen anything like them until now.
Hi Dave. I love the patterns those sand things make. I sometimes think of getting one. I used to manufacture Sterling Engine's for a UK company called Kontax. Theirs start from about £120 and I think less of the 3D printed ones. The reason I mentioned them is the quality of the product. Unlike the ones from China, Kontax engines are far better quality. They also look better. Another UA-camr featured one in his video. He was really impressed and he wasn't sent for review either. Trevor
It's a dying art. I feel somewhat complicit in killing it (I've hated handwriting since I was 5!), but I do admire well-executed handwriting whenever I see it.
I always watch your newest of videos! They are just so entertaining and I can't explain why. I have been subscribed for you for more than 3 years now, And I still watch your content! Amazing video, Davehax!
If you put in small roller wheels in the base of that sand disk you could just rotate it on the stand. Maybe use magnets and have it float in air so it could potentially spin itself. I commented this before I saw the pen. Well...
I'm your newest subscriber cos you're so cool: that cheerily excited voice, those absolutely useless stuff (but so funny that I was pretty amused). The best thing Nr. two, I think that even James Watt would laugh in his grave. Good job Dave.
Used to have one of those sand-plates(? ) quite a few years back It was a gift to my mom, I dont recall from who tho It was a rectangle shape instead of circular and it sat on our piano until it eventually broke
Weird, I had one of the sand ones in the early 2000s and it didnt need a syringe, did always perfectly work out of the box. I wonder how it was different and what they could make better, maybe some kind of membrane? And it wasnt expensive too.
Me and my mom watch you acesionally, and we absolutely love it! It’s always so fun, and we’ve even bought some of the things you have reviewed! Great work my guy! ❤
When someone finds the syringe in your desk, I'd like to hear how you explain it. I'd also like to hear you explain to your wife why you bought a $100+ ball point pen. The Stirling engine will give you an excuse to take a coffee break every half hour.
Did you like them? Which was your favorite? Links to the gadgets in the description...
You didn’t ❤️ your own comment
haven't watched fully... I'll edit this comment and I'll comment which one is my favorite.
Edit: the Sand Art Picture was my favorite.
Engines!!!!!!
The sand toy was great! A question: have you ever Made a Video about car Gadgets and bicycle gadgets? Would be pretty cool, huh!

cool dad
I hope you're doing well
Had you not ever seen sand art like that? They were all over the place when I was a kid in the 80s, mostly in doctor’s offices.
Everyone of these items would have been seen in a Sharper Image catalog in the 80s.
Or in one of their ads in Omni Magazine.
Liquid motion toys of the 90's need to make a comeback. Those things were so much fun.
@@m.w.4508 true
REAL
So true lol
My first dentist had like 2 dozen of those. I always enjoyed flipping them over when I was a kid.
3:53 on the side, it looks like an egine for ships
5:28 Yes, make one about small engines, that would be cool
Pretty Cool Huh!
Agreed
Its like a old 19th century invention
Yeah, that would be great!
I'd like to see something that I can take on my bushcraft trips and find a use for like pumping water or generate 12v energy etc.

The Sterling engine should work on either a cup of hot coffee or a cup of ice water. Try it.
I would install it on top of a router so that it would never stop unless the power went out!
That 23,5° angle isn't random, it's the rotation angle of the earth relative to it's orbital plane.
It has no real bearing on the form & function of the pen, but I still wouldn't have chosen another angle 😁

I have a sterling engine very similar to this one. I often enjoyed setting it on my coffee up at work just to admire it running.
Good timing Dave, considering all our computers are down 😂
wait i thought that was just company computers cuz nobody needs that much security on their PC
If your computer is down, how are you watching?
I just realized, you can have a different device without the software.
@@Galaxxymeeps I was at work ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I used to watch this guy as a kid so happy to see he's still around and still getting alot of views much deserved ❤
*a lot. No such word as "alot". 🤣

100 pounds for a pen is crazy
That's one heavy pen.
That's about $125. :-(
Luxury. 😑
You'd think if if you're paying that much you would get more than 2 refills.
Ikr like what if u lost it
Really nifty items - The sand one, I think watching it would put me to sleep rather than distract me LOL. I love it. Thank you Dave 😊

I used to binge watch you years ago and I’m still glad you’re still kicking
BROOO
I used to watch you as a kid like 3/4 years ago
I'm so glad you haven't change at all
I love my little heat engine. I can put on a pan of pasta, put it on the lid, and it runs until the buzzer tells me that the pasta is done.
been watching since 2016 and i never got bored. you always get what the title or the thumbnail says :)
Sand Art is my favourite. I bought the exact one. Thank you for reviewing it.
What color was it?
@@ItAintMeBabe99 Blue
I have that exact Stirling engine. It didn't last long. The connecting rods loosened and fell off the crank!
Love the commentary style. Makes me smile. Thank you 😂
I love this when it slows down enough you know, it's cool enough to drink. 😊
This guy makes me smile everyday. Love you, Dave!
Dave is a perfect youtuber. He edits good, his voiceovers are pretty cool, Huh? And He's a kid-friendly youtuber. I watched him for a year. Keep up the good work Dave 🤍👍💪
I hope this man gets paid well for these promotions =D
Whats with the d?
Dave hax thanks for being my childhood for years it’s been a long time sense I have seen your videos I’m glad you still post to this day
pretty great gadgets you've found around the internet. thanks.
8:00 Thank you for the reminder of that old new video, I haven't watched it yet

This channel is such a guilty pleasure!
I like the falling sand one. It looks relaxing to watch. My desk is too small for it though.
Haven't watched Dave for 4 years, I'm glad you're still going strong and still going amazing 'till this year, Love you, DaveHax, keep going !!
Please do more of these :) I loved this!
this man is like from the past. good days.
also, that kettle is old school goodness.

@@A.L.LGaming In a way... It's the same with paintings & drawings though - hate doing that, but damn do they look good when done right!

The first thing u showed was awesome it is calming to watch
The hovering pen concept is years old. Like the heat engine and landscape device though
The Stirling engine thing would maybe be great to put over your coffee to maybe keep it warm or while you wait for it to cool down
Yeah!! More Dave Videos Frequently!! ❤💙
Never change, Dave. Never change.
This channel is such a W
12 year old channel, still going strong, Bravo, Dave! also anyone remember gallium?
Thanks for doing what you do!
Thanks for your support
amazing video mr Hax, the sand one was my favourite. ❤
Used to have one of those sand-plates(? ) quite a few years back
It was a gift to my mom, I dont recall from who tho
It was a rectangle shape instead of circular and it sat on our piano until it eventually broke
But, I thought it was a good Video. And it's my choice is to pick a Stirling Engine. It's a beautiful way to cool off. So, I can have a Warm drink.
When Dave said *next I want to try this* an ad came up and it was of red bull F1 LOL😂
This was peaceful
So the hovering pen halo should have been made of plastic or aluminum, not steel. otherwise, cool and may get one for my office desk
"pretty cool, huh?" never gets old
Weird, I had one of the sand ones in the early 2000s and it didnt need a syringe, did always perfectly work out of the box. I wonder how it was different and what they could make better, maybe some kind of membrane? And it wasnt expensive too.
Perfect timing im quite literally bored at work 😂
I like the coffee cup one
Should rename this as 3 incredible gift ideas

That's awesome, glad you enjoy the content to much :)
Pretty cool huh never gets old
Please look at more engines, that was so cool!
At first I thought this said “3 inventions to DESTROY your bedroom” 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Yes, look at other engines. You will be very amazed at some of the different working kits
I LOVE IT (Z.G.X channel here commented)
We as a species do not deserve something as cool as a Stirling engine on a coffee mug, but I'm glad we can get them.
You still give me that 2019 vibe
Ty
Had one of those sand pictures 40 years ago.
Stirling engine really cool
Now I want all 3 of them: my cat would love the pen!
"And came in this box"... thanks. So interesting to see an amazon box.
Bro stop hating it’s not funny
THIS IS F7(KING GREAT.LOVE IT
Great vid and great handwriting. I'd want the pen if not for the price haha
why don't the sand of different colors mix up over multiple flip-overs? Are the particles' sizes different?
Those landscapes must be sandscapes? 😉
This man is the reason my childhood is alive
The hover pen is pretty cool and premium but *100£???*
“Oh what’s this?! A disposable syringe!?!?” idk why but I burst out laughing lmao
When someone finds the syringe in your desk, I'd like to hear how you explain it. I'd also like to hear you explain to your wife why you bought a $100+ ball point pen. The Stirling engine will give you an excuse to take a coffee break every half hour.
if this man made a cooking video he would have everything to do anything with his food
These are great, I hope you do more of these in the future
Tbh all of these are beautiful gadgets! But if i had to choose a fav then it would be the pen :)
Ah, Dave, if only I had a desk job lol
That sand art is over 3 decades old. They had this in square frames when I was a kid and I'm 50.
Yes I remember them from the 80's. I'm nearly 60
most of my childhood explained in 1 channel
How awesome 👍👍
I remember this guy
These gadgets are very awesome and they are very cool Dave!😎😎😎❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I just love his videos
