I had horrible lower back pain for years and was scheduled for surgery,when I saw a video of a guy using a foam roller tube to lay on the floor and under your back . I did it a few times and something popped,scared the crap out of me,but to my surprise the pain was gone , that was 2 years ago and I have had no back issues sense. Great tips hope you can get some relief.
Feeling MUCH better! thank you!
That fan hack will be getting done today. 👍🏻
great for airflow!
That “soda” - looks like Leffe Blonde. Yes? You have excellent taste.
😏….
My Dad used to put holes in the lid channel as well, however, since the introduction of painters tape, I've been putting painters tape over about a 1/3 of the can's open lid channel and pour at that point or prep my brush on the tape ... in either case, at the end of the task, I just pull off the tape, replace the lid and all is clean and paint free. Cheers and BTW, liked this video so much that I'm a new sub! Cheers ...
awesome! welcome to the crew!
I love a good *tips & tricks & hacks* video! You have some really good ones!!!
I routinely smash my fingers when wielding a hammer, so have learned to just avoid using fingers at all to hold the nail. Bobby pins, clothes pins, pliers, tweezers... used a fork once because it was closer than anything else.
I guess the paint can mess is a universal struggle, I've seen many strategies for this problem. I saw one fella sculpt a pour spout from his kid's play-dough! There’s another solution that uses 2 pieces of painters tape to make a V over the can, not sure if it holds up when pouring high volume, or using large brushes.
Well, keep up the good content! I know this video is from a long time ago, it still adds value to lives. I appreciate your effort!
Very good. The small piece of wood has the factory 90° on the side or better yet..use the end..I plan to go through my bag of scrap wood and salvage several straight pieces.
OMG!!! Holes in the paint can and salt on the wood glue are awesome! Mess is half the battle for me in any project. Thank you for thinking for me. Obviously, shops are not my area of expertise... but I now fear no workshop!
Love it!
The paint can and the hoover tips. My life is complete.
just saw your channel. hope your back is doimg well. i've had all my l's fused. have to exercise all the time so it won't hurt.
Back is kinda “okay.” I had 2 shots in the back and it been tolerable since then. However certain movements hurt quite a lot
Salt is good to have in the shop, along with lime. edit: My bottle opener is hanging on the side of my drill press cabinet, beside my chuck key. Gotta have pops in the shop. Of course, not when you're working with power tools. Only for clean up.
You are the Jim Gaffigan of woodworking. Good tips
Not sure if that’s a compliment or not…
Cool hacks thanks Mate.
My pleasure! I'm glad you found then useful!
Thanks man. Great tips. One or two I knew but the rest are magic! Be well.
i have 2 herniated discs as well, between 5 and 6 and 6 and 7. So i totally know your pain! Get well soon! Thanks for the tips!
Thank you! You too!
Thank You for all the good tips!
You’re very welcome!
the number 2 tip you said it was going to be OMG, well It's been widely know for ages, at least for all the people I know, and if you leave a tail of tape will help you dust the surface you are drilling holes in, but the number 3 Wow! OMG that was awesome and I'll do that to all my paint cans from now on. Thank you very much for sharing.
My pleasure!
Salty glue...Love it
Yummy!
Trying the 90 degree drill hack tomorrow
Works like a charm!
Good to see your back on youtube. Cool video! Take it easy Mr. Burke
a good watch mate, cheers.
I glad you found it valuable!
Good stuf😂stuff
Opening the can of worms, I mean paint and putting holes in it is great. My father does it also and that is where I learnt it from. It was only one hole however. Sometimes multiple holes would be nice. Gonna try it
The thing to remember is to keep the directly in the bottom of the dip in the can. If you put the up the side at all, when you put the lid on, it can let air in.
Love your tips, you are clear. Thanks. I would love if you would list all the tips in the video in the place you put the dry erase markers link. It would be a great help for me. thanks.
Great tips, thanks.
You’re very welcome!
If you leave a small piece of tape sticking out on your depth gauge, it will work to blow the sawdust away as you drill.
Awesome! Great tip!
👍🏻👍🏻 yup! I often do that. Thank you!
Hi do you think is a good idea to have an air conditioner in a shop or its better a fan or a extractor?
I have no clue why, but this message only just popped up on my channel. I think the major problem with A/C units in the shop is that they usually recirculate the air from inside the shop. so it takes in air from the shop, and shoots out cooler air into the shop, then takes in that cooloer air and makes it colder, over and over until the room is at the tmep you set. in this case, the A/C is also taking in dust, saw dust etc from the air. THAT'S a problem, as iot can harm your A/C if not looked after. There are some A/C that give you the option of the A/C taking fresh air from outside instead of from in the shop. Thats what I have had for years. At this point I run that second type of A/C and a dust extractor in my shop fairly regularly. Seems to work well for what I need to use it for. however, when ventilation is called for, i bust out fans toboth bring in fresh air, and vent out the air that needs removal. It all depends on what your needs are.
The filter spinner trick really works - IF - you can contain all the dust.
Best to take it outside, put on a mask, and use compressed air to clean it - that's what I do..
Lol! This whole thing came around from me doing exactly that! I live just outside of NYC and properties are super close together. I went outside to bang mine around and clean it out and ended up covering my neighbor’s yard. Led to a huge argument! 😆 that’s when I thought I should find a “better” way!
I ended up solving the problems entirely with this next build. Went and made a 2-stage dust collection system implementing HEPA rated filter and dust bag. Check it out! ua-cam.com/video/k5GpNyH_FBo/v-deo.html
4:16 does thatwork a san air extractor?
I doubt it.
Tell you what, for a while i had to have my girlfriend help me put my socks on, which is a bad feeling itself, amd i started doing one simple stretch that no joke saved me, and today im able to bend over lift, all the stuff i used to do before i injured my back, lay down on your tummy, then prop yourself up on your elbows to give a reverse arch to your lower back, and slowly increase by pushing up on your forearms then hands, and also tilt your head back, i promise this will help
Thanks
Awesome video BTW! Lots of great helpful tisp!
Love your shirt!
Thanks! If only I would remember to take its advice! 😂
Love the bottle opener idea. It’s 5 o’clock somewhere.
Absolutely!
nice !
Thank you! Just wondering if there was any specific one that stood out?
Agree paint can hack is a winner! and, what’s your favorite soda?
A splash of any with a lot of decent bourbon! Lol 🥃
@@BurkeMakesStuff Do you mind a suggestion? Mix mid-range whiskeys with soda. Sip the good stuff by itself.
Good stuff. I came from King’s page to watch the flag video and stayed for this one. Subscribed.
Kathy Winn outstanding! Welcome to the crew!
Seriously, that paint can hack is absolutely brilliant.
Won't the paint left in the can dry out after that?
Only the TINY bit that doesn’t drip back in, buts it’s never been enough to be any sort of issue.
Thank you Alison! After 30 years of using it, it’s one of my favorites!
With the vertical line on a piece of scrap wood for a drill guide...
... why not make the line a V notch. Then the drill bit will nestle into the notch without slipping.
Love the idea!!!
Open a can of paint and putting holes in the edge for drainage will also make your paint dry out while it is in the can, not a great idea if you have left over paint.
Literally never had paint dry out. I do it all the time for the last 30 years. I think it may be about putting them in the right place. As long as the holes are on the bottom most part of the rim, they are completely covered when the lid is put back on.
Instead of making holes in the paint can, you could just use a rubberband around the top and bottom og the can, that Works really well.
I’ve used to. Splatters a lot and you have to go slower to make sure it doesn’t.
love your videos !
Thank you so much for saying so! I really appreciate hearing it!
I have the same herniated discs. I feel your pain dude. Great tips!
Thanks! I feel MUCH better now, but every once in a while it acts up!
One more simple tip, especially for guys & gals whose shop has a cement floor. Wear a back brace. You can buy them on Amazon for under $30.00. I mean think about it, you are doing a lot of physical activity and putting a lot of stress especially on your lower back when you are working in your shop. I use one whenever I work in my shop. The support the brace offers helps me a lot.
Nice!
Came from King's page. Solid video, good tips!
I really appreciate that, man! I hope you found them useful. King’s page is epic.That man can build anything! Make sure to sub to see what’s coming up next!
Great video man! Great to see you back on your feet and at it again! So close to 1000
HappyCow 29 thanks! I had a shot in my spine this morning and am feeling much better. I need an idea for a “1000 subscriber” video!!!
I hope you get more subscribers man. You're videos are awesome and great quality and editing too
Thank you so much for that! I really love doing this. Yesterday was actually the channel’s 1 year anniversary. 5,600+ in one year is better that 96% of channel’s first years. I’m really proud of the videos and community I’m trying to build! I you like them, feel free to share them!!! Thanks again! I appreciate it!
Update: 12,600+
Baking soda is also a CA glue activator.
A wonderful one, at that! I love that it can almost be used to reinforce joints because it of the physical mass it adds!
The L5S1 is a disk in your spinal cord it is right above the tail bone
+Kyle Cheng yes, and mine is messed up big time!
Good tips!
+Cnthib57 Thank you! I appreciate that! Have any cools ones of your own, I can use in a future video?
@@BurkeMakesStuff I have one for putting sandpaper on a orbital sander. Picture would explain it all, hard to describe it.
Instead of poking holes in the paint can, put a rubber band around the can going over the opening and use that to clean your brush. :-)
I used to, but when working with smaller brushes I found the the rubber and would often “splash” paint up because it’s elastic. I find the solid aluminum can better to wipe off extra paint. But if it works for you, rock on! Thanks for checking out the video!
Fyi. You can get Come in glass bottles. I usually pick it up at dollar General store.😁
Place a rubber band around your paint can so it goes over the top and wipe the paint brush on that.
This has been brought up a bunch in this thread. Consensus seems to be that doing that ends up splattering paint across the room if you’re working at a steady, solid pace. But if it work for you, awesome!
where can I get that t-shirt?
Etsy I think
L5 S1 herniated disc. Had that surgery 20 years ago. Haven't had trouble since.
Mike H luckily it doesn’t look
Like I’ll need surgery. Doctor is very happy with my progress since the shot in my spine. I have most of the mobility back and as doing physical therapy 3 days a week. Fingers crossed. Thank you though!!
@@BurkeMakesStuff surgery is hit and miss. physical therapy is the only way long term.
why would you introduce salt between to pieces of woods that you are trying to glue together? Defeats the purpose of cleaning dust off of parts to introduce bigger granules of salt.
Actually it doesn’t work like dust at all. You aren’t covering the glue in salt, you’re using I tiny bit. Salt simply adds friction, allowing the pieces to more easily be aligned, before devolving due to the water content of wood glue. Where dust is not water soluble at all, and often covers the entire area of not cleaned off first. This trick is used by so many professionals and is so ubiquitous in the woodworking world that almost didn’t include it because it figured everyone must already know it. Thank you for checking out the video!
That paint hack
ronit yup! It’s a shop-changer!
Don't have enough hands?
Trying to hold wood blocks in place while getting ready to clamp up a box?
This is stupid simple (which was why I hadn't thought of it before. Just too much for my little pea brain!)
Use double sided tape to temporarily attach blocks to the clamp jaws. Voila!
Like I said, stupid simple. I'm working my way up to stupid, but I'm making progress :)
I have two herniations. L4-L5, L5-S1
I know that pain. Sucks
If a paint can is pierced as you show even with the lid on air will get in and solidify the paint
That’s incorrect. I’ve been doing it for 30+ years. As long as you put the holes where I show, when the lid is reapplied correctly, they are completely covered.
straw in a cup on a vacuum genius
First time I learned that one my brain exploded. 🧠 💥
it would be better to put the magnet to hold the screws on a part of the drill that does not spin
Interesting. My magnet is super strong, but if you have weak magnets, yes, definitely!
@@BurkeMakesStuff what's your real name for that app
One suggestion for the vid is if the hack is rlly long but your trying to save time in the video make a separate video going into detail about the hack
Nate Como where can I get the stickers? And,again, who can I reach out to about the can art?
So the lady for the art is on Etsy but she is actually taking a break but shananagansNthings on Etsy also ik u live in Long Island but there is a graffiti shop on francis Lewis called Smoke Bomb it’s rlly cool u can look it up and get directions they sell tons of stickers there also say that “ Nathan” sent u there
Nate Como will do! Thanks bro
Nate Como BTW pulled like 50+ new subs from the last video. Gonna cross 1000 in a day or 2. What should I do for the 1000 subs video?
Yea I did see that congrats dude that’s great I think I’m pushing for like 5 subs 😂
L5
lumbar spine #5 (the lowest of 5 vertebrae in your lower back).
S-1
The uppermost vertebrae of the lowest section or your spine.
The spongy disc that cushions between each vertebrae is bulging out of its space.
80% of them heal on their own.
Lose weight.
Strengthen your core muscles.
Use rowing machine like you were born on one.
Problem mitigated.
Cynical Texas Dad that so funny. My Dr said that almost word for word. Been doing it. Just got cleared for no surgery needed! Very excited. Still working on weight loss. Thanks!
Herniation l5 s1 can lead to problems. See an orthopaedic or neurosurgeon. May need mri if severe, physio
IBC Root Beer still comes in glass bottles. It makes life worth living.
Damn! Now I want a Root Beer!
A few other brands of soda too.Coke even offers it, but it's not common.
Feel better
General Bacca Thank you! Going to get to a major shot in the spine this morning. Nervous. I hate needles
you need to see a good chiropractor for the disc bulge
I did for quite some time. MUCH better now! Thanks!
Fala demais!!!
eu aprecio sua opinião.
Just because!
2:03 Actually, "hugs" IS INDEED the answer to wood-slippage or any other problem dat ya might have around da ol' workshop --- as long as you have plenty of HUGZ and SNUGGLEZ with fellow humans around you, you can do ANYTHING better. :D
Lol! Nice!
Soda. Yeah.
😏
I didn't like the trick in the paint can. It won't seal when you put the lid back. It's better to put a string across, held by tape on every side. Yo pass the brush against it to shed the excess paint.
I was stake a back when you said that. I’ve gotten more positive feedback on that hack than all the other combined. I’ve never had issue with the lid fitting afterwards. Where exactly did you put the holes? It’s possible that they were made too large, I suppose. Forcing a wedge in too far def could have caused deformation of the can.
Arturo Luis Alfredo Lisdero Molina even better than a string A rubber band stretched around the can vertically.
Use to use a rubber and. Thinner paints “splash” back. Not my favorite way. But if it works for you, great! Thanks for checking out the video!
Actually it works just fine if you do it as shown.
I hope you are pain free fast!
Thank you. My back has been MUCH better since!
First to watch
Yeouch get my dude also oh yea oh yea yea
Look up the word original
why?
i think you must be on painkillers
So now you drilled holes in a fan and put screws through your trim when you can go to Walmart and buy a window fan
Why spend more money when I have an extra fan on hand? Also the size of the box fan moves way more air.
Are we in seventh grade?
As soon as you used the word "hack" I shut you down!
And then you took the time to come write a comment. Thank you! The algorithm loves that!
Too much yackity yacking could have doubled your tips in the same time.... having liquor so close to a workshop is extremely dangerous
🙄
