Making Of Modern Steel Metal Vase
This video is sure to motivate amateur metal fabricators. It's a long way between the planning and the finished product, but in the end, all that hard work was worth it. The maker should rightly be proud.
The faceted metal vase was inspired by modern art. It's quite marvelous how all those irregular angles nicely fit together. The video starts out showing a paper plan with many two dimensional shapes. We see the project name is Polygon Vase Set. Next, we see the craftsman sorting the pieces, now cut into their metal forms, into a coherent pattern on his work table.
The video is in slow motion, set to a synth rhythm. Putting a large metal <a href="https://rumble.com/v5k74h-give-a-boy-a-vase-and-you-will-see-what-happens.html" target="_blank">vase</a> together isn't a one-man job since we see multiple hands involved. Maybe the different roles, like designer and fabricator require unique skill sets? The video moves quickly through construction phases, so this isn't meant to be a tutorial as much as it is documentary.
Struts and braces are measured, cut, and welded together using precision techniques. The plan is referred to again to make sure we're doing it right! As the piece takes shape on the table, we can get a sense of scale against the two men bringing it to completion.
With every piece welded into place, it's time to grind out the rough corners and edges. Now we have to pause to <a href="https://rumble.com/v32qxc-little-puppy-meets-big-dog.html" target="_blank">admire</a> the spirit of the vase. We have a sense of pride and relief seeing the imagination manifest itself into the real world. Only a day before this was just an idea in someone's mind.
There's one more stage after grinding, and that's polishing. The craftsman uses a buffing wheel to smooth down the surface, and finally polishes the metal structure to a silky finish. It's ready for painting!
The final part of the video shows the painting process, which is a kind of dance between the painter and his airbrush. This is a very sensitive stage, where the piece cannot be touch or contaminated by air born particles. It is hung on a rack like a side of beef, then rolled into the kiln. There's a lot more to ceramic coating than just spray painting. The kiln sets the ceramic coating by bringing it to high temperatures and then letting it gradually cool. This makes the coating hard as a rock. The kiln is quite a large space that can accommodate several other works, as well. May as well take advantage of all that extra space that would otherwise be unavailable for the day.
The time has come to take the vase out of the kiln. Our videographer shows it off, with close-ups. It's a work of art unto itself. At this point the craftsman's part in its construction is over, so we don't need any people in the final shots. We want to marvel at the elegant design, space and color it takes against the studio brick walls and wood floor.
Where will this vase spend the next years of its life, in a New York studio, or a museum? Maybe it will get the attention due in the foyer of a luxury hotel, or, just maybe, the private residence of its creator.

Here's How To Make A Stylish Bluetooth Speaker
Music gives a certain flavor to our lives. It has been part of our everyday lives since the beginning of time. As technology advanced, so did the means to reproduce music and before we could wrap our minds around it, we now have speakers that play our music without having to attach them to anything!
So if you want to create a <a href="https://rumble.com/v49mgz-wraps-has-a-stylish-solution-for-tangled-earbuds.html" target="_blank">stylish</a> double speaker that connects to your devices via Bluetooth, then this is the tutorial for you!
Concrete might not be everyone’s go-to material when it comes to interior decorating, but its roughness and simplicity of color make it the perfect way to exude your impeccable taste. To turn a simple cinder block into a double Bluetooth speaker, you will need two full range speakers that will fit the holes in the block, a couple of pine boards for the face and back and a Bluetooth amp to connect it all together.
The rest is just knowhow, but there are a lot a schematics that you can find online that will make your life much easier. The power router does give the board a nice touch, rounding the edges and making everything look smooth and professional, but you can skip that and work in some elbow grease with a few grits of sanding paper.
True, this project might not look as awesome if you don’t have the power tools, but can you imagine the pride you will feel when you display the work that you have done with your bare hands?

Six Simple Drilling Tricks Necessary In Everyday Living
Life hacks allow people to get task from their everyday life done faster than it meant to be done. It doesn’t require much work to implement those easy life hacks to your everyday life. Now we would like to talk about the video, because it is specific to the drilling life hacks. So now what does this means? It means that for the life <a href="https://rumble.com/v31ggt-6-fruit-cutting-hacks-to-make-your-life-easier.html" target="_blank">hacks</a> shown in this video you need a drill. A little bit more material is required as well as a drill, for exemple, screws and a marker, but we think it is common in every household.
The first life hack that is explained in the video is to shred cheese. We all have this machine to allow us to shred cheese right above our warm dish but it doesn’t always work, the cheese gets stuck on the side of the machine and you need a little bit of force to be able to shred the cheese in little pieces. That’s when the life hack comes in, the video shows how to attach the drill to the back of the machine, with a few screws, and you can now shred your cheese by with your drill. Just press the button and it will make the machine speed as fast as the drill is, which guarantee nice shredded pieces of cheese.
The second life hack featured in the video has the same function as the previous one, just that this time it is faster to just attach a whip to the end of the drill to be able to whip any cream without much arm effort.
During this video, the life hacks are well explained and shown to you, from how to prepare the drill and the other tools, until the person shows as well the final result. For example, the one with the bottle of <a href="https://rumble.com/v44dqw-holiday-food-and-wine-pairing-101.html" target="_blank">wine</a> is well explained because the type of screw required is clearly visible and identifiable and how to get the cork out of the bottle as well.
The other hacks shown in the video are really practical and allow to save a lot of time but I would like to go over simple security measures while using such hacks and a drill.
First of all, make sure to be close to an outlet to be able to connect the drill. Another thing that I believe is really important is that the drill used for those kitchen hacks should be new and not have been used previously to work around the house, just to limit the spread of microbes and viruses. This came to our mind as we were watching the different life hacks of the video and especially when the one about the apple came. It might be really easy, fast and practical but the drill is in the middle of the apple during the life hack, hence why it needs to be cleaned properly or brand new. Any children watching this video and thinking about using those life hacks should be supervised by an adult at all times.

This DIY Rocket Powered Fidget Spinner Will Get You Dizzy
Just when we were starting to get fatigued by fidget spinner news, somebody put three rockets on a huge metal one. Has the fame surrounding fidget spinners finally begun to die down? Probably not, but either way, in this video you will see a dude who has taken the ever-popular toy to the next level.
Check out this epic rocket powered fidget spinner experiment. This is probably the world's fastest and <a href="https://rumble.com/v3amrc-rocket-powered-fidget-spinner.html" target="_blank">most dangerous fidget spinner</a> that goes about 1,000mph. Enjoy!
We are amazed as we observed how to make a rocket-powered fidget spinner out of metal parts as the entire procedure is explained step by step and we finally got to see a huge aluminum fidget spinner get the <a href="https://rumble.com/v3jlad-rs-25-rocket-engine-test.html" target="_blank">rocket engine</a> treatment.
Fidget spinners are everywhere. Thousands upon thousands of plastic discs in every shape, size and color have been press-fit with skate bearings and piled high on every store shelf. Just like all fads, they’ll surely fade from the mainstream before too long, but in the meantime this dude has something to say about the ubiquitous, gyroscopic toy. We have seen bladed fidget spinners, giant fidget spinners, and now even rocket-powered fidget spinners. Never one to let something this popular go by without investigating, so people come up with different ways to freshen up this worldwide trend!
