Brilliant! You've solved the problem of having to watch an hourglass, waiting, waiting, waiting for it to empty out. Now, with a little calibration, you can tune that to be a 2 minute timer with an AUDIBLE marker to indicate the time, or a 5 minute timer, or whatever lengths of time you find yourself timing on a recurring basis. Best of all? NO ELECTRICITY!!
Way to go Jack! You've done it again.
May your shop be filled with chips and sawdust all year long,
- Jim “Mr. Measure Twice” Marchetti
PS - Happy New Year to you!!!
Gotta love the free gift of gravity!
I always overcook my eggs because I forget the time.. I like them soft -now I can have soft eggs every time!
I was going to sat the same thing. Also, for people that can't hear, just put this thing in your peripheral vision while you work on whatever, and it will get your attention quite clearly when it falls. This would sell.
Awesome trick with the wire, never expected that it would have worked as well as it did!
Ha Ha, Yes! Low Tech, I Love it. Timer with audible notification, no batteries ever. Thanks
Your bandsaw sounds like a ufo movie from the 50's! I really like the project, too! Merry New Year!
An example of original thought, I like this a lot. Cheers
Dear Jack,
Your bandsaw makes a cool noise like you would hear in a spooky sci-fi movie. Cool build, thanks for sharing.
Love,
Zach
Sand has been around, wood has been around,Jack has been around.....it's nice to see that they got together one day. Love the concept . Merci beaucoup. Now lets make a larger size...." car crusher ".
Clever Design Jack. Good chance I’d here that timer go off. I often miss the digital timers I use frequently.
That's such a cool twist to an existing idea! Thanks for sharing this!
Very nice, Mr Houweling! Another inspiring creation! Thank you for sharing it!
Rather than drilling a hole, I wonder if it would have been easier just to cut a narrow channel in the surface which will be against the plexiglass? That way you could watch the sand running through it too.
Genius, I you solved the law off physics 👍🏻💯💫
Very original design. You need to add a bell to wake me up more reliably. Thanks for the idea.
Victor V. Do it yourself 2 and 1/2 minute naps right? Haha
Really a neat project. It’s a novel idea that is and would be very useful. Thanks for sharing Jack. Great job!!
impresive, well done sir.
That's a great idea and build Jack!
Muy ingenioso.! Excelente como todos sus trabajos
I've used a nail as a drill bit in the past so not a bit surprised your wire worked. I might have to design this for 3d printing as well if that's ok.
Thanks Jack
Yes you can use my design, let me know how it turns out.
Te felicito,original,y facil de hacer,me gusta mucho, aprovecho para desearte un feliz 2018 a ti y a tu familia
you are inspiring the world, great idea.
Very cleaver Jack! Thanks for sharing
The strangest thing I’ve seen. Yet I like it! It’s nice to see something I’ve not seen before.
A Happy New Year to you.
This is an engine.
Does it work with water?
Excellent video!
Milkovic invented a pendulum powered water pump.
LOL!
Now with your invention one doesn't even have to push the pendulum!
simple and elegant. brava!
U are a genius, I never thought of such a brilliant simple Idea that solves the issue of checking if it is time to flip over. You could have solved the problem of Longitude calculation and win the price without having to invent the crono-meter of harrison! THIS IS AMAZING, did you invent yourself ?
Perfect timing for New Year !
Great vid once again. Although I probably won't make the timer myself, watching as you make it perfectly is just so cool ,calming and satisfying.Happy New Years and hope you had a Merry Christmas also.
Brilliant!
Happy New Year!
Ingenious. Have a great New Year.
Cheers John
Thanks for sharing this nice idea with us!
Thanks for watching.
I love it nice work!
Jack H - Very good idea and build as usual. That will jolt you out of the daydream or your over focused work spell. But what of the unaware poor little cat or dog's tail laying in the way when that goes "bang!" - so I suggest it needs a little integrated safety fence that the clock tower falls into and that could be tricky to engineer.
Cool stuff !
Are you ok Jack ... We miss you ...
You're a real genius, Jack! Happy New Year and God bless you and your family.
Happy New Year to you.
What a great idea Jack! Happy New Year! 🎊🎉
This is genius
Amazing!
Nice work Jack! I like how it falls to notify when the time is elapsed.
All my best to you and your loved ones in the new year of 2018!
Thanks, I will set it 2.5 minutes before midnight tonight.
Very clever! Have a Happy New Year, Jack.
Cool idea, Happy New Year!
Like the design
Hallo Jack
It works pretty good 👍👍👍
Fun Happy New Year.
Always enjoy you videos. Thanks. Happy New Year!
Thanks, Happy New Year.
Great job Jack that's a very novel idea! Happy New Year to you and yours!
Muhteşem teşekkürler
Great fun Jack :) Happy New Year ॐ
Happy New Year
Great job as always Jack. Happy New Year!
Happy new year!
The thing with the wire i didn't undestand.
Cheerio from Germany.
Very small drill bits do not fit in a chuck of a drill so you have to make the diameter larger.
bonjour tres bon tuto bonne annee
Great thinking! Happy New Year Jack :)
You may make one that it can climb down stairs.
I like it.
Well, the Mrs just said "Oh, I like that.." so I guess I'm making a timer soon :)
Happy New Year Jack and all the best for 2018
Timer with ghost :)
Jack where are you?
That'd be good for a 2-1/2" minute egg.... ;)
But how do you know how much sand to put in? It must be a tedious process of trial and error.
Liiike
Why no more videos? :( Miss your videos
Hi I have question please can you tell me which store you bought a jig cutting circles I saw your video you used that jig if you can just tell me I want to buy?
I used a Forstner bit, they are available at most hardware stores.
Thanks
Jack, everything ok? it's been 5months since your last vid. Hope you're well.
Of the end of France ( creutzwald ) where I you written, my wishes for new year of 2018 hoping that English is correct
That these few affectionate words
Present you my best wishes
Best wishes sent to heavens
So that every you are happy
Moins
RÉPONDRE
Thought it would flip up and stand on the other short end.
That would be nice, lol.
. . . . and would be Perpetual Motion!!!!
Jack Houweling
Sounds like your next challenge.
So what happened to Jack?
I can't find out anything about what he is currently doing.
I hope all is well.
Are you good ?
the time ?20 10 15?
Time for something new.
"OK Google, set timer for two and a half minutes"
Battery required. Plus, for something repetitious like a game, this would be better. Siri and others are great for one time use though.
Why no new videos?
My wife is ill
Sad to hear your wife is sick. I hope she feels better soon.
Jack Houweling - I'm very sorry to hear that Jack. Best wishes for all. Keep in mind that we all miss you here. Thanks for everything you do and for all the inspiration.
Use it for what?!
Pushups.
