Have you ever tried in using mechanical garden tap timers? I've have a few
that have been made up as panning devices. I find that the metal gears and
springs are more robust that the usual kitchen timers. Presently, I'm
hacking one up into a panning device.
+B. Ramsden First, thanks for the kind words and thanks for watching.I have a 2 hour irrigation timer mod but could not simplify it to the point that most people would want to try.Still thinking on it, but yes they are great.At some point I will make my irrigation GoLapse DIY video ..... some day.
Well mate! I'll show you how to do it. Most mechanical garden tap timers have a screw on base. Remove the screws and the base. Now, the demolition part. Place the bottom portion of the timer in a vice, and slowly squeeze the life out of it. The top portion has the gears and the main spring. So, you don't want to put that part in the vice. When the bottom becomes distorted from the top pull apart both the bottom and top. A little grunt is required. Once both parts are removed, throw away the bottom portion. The top will have a plastic stem. Cut that off. Drill a hole very carefully and slowly in the centre of the bottom and screw in the 3/8 to 1/4 inch Convert Screw Adapter. A lot of tap timers will have a flat top, so you can put the usual Go Pro adhesive mount. As for me, I don't own a Go Pro, as I use another time lapse brand. I just drill a hole in the top, and screw and glue a 1/4 20 in grub screw. That's it!SeeyaPS love your vids!
thank you for the response and yes i'm looking for a slider right now and after i have that i will see for panning units but now i can use ur tip thank you it was a awesome video and it works fine for me
+Rédouan Kingfx To pan right you can invert the timer(flip upside down), or open the timer and flip the spring but I have no idea how to do that. It is a cheap tool, don't expect it to do everything.There are some battery driven panning units that are completely adjustable, but they cost $100

Homemade Smoker - BBQ smoker from Ikea parts
//GardenFork.TV Make a smoker from Ikea parts. Build a home made smoker to smoke meat and anything else. This week we take a few Ikea products and ...
try to find aluminum instead of galvanized steel. You have to presmoke the
smoker to get a good coating of carbon on the inside of the smoker. Never
use plywood or anything with glue in it for a smoker. A friend of mine made
one with plywood and gave me a taste of his fish. Yuk... Tasted like burnt
glue. I spit it out fast. I use the little chef smoker , commercial smoker.
Has 3 racks about 3 square feet of area to smoke on. Uses a 4 inch pan of
wood chips on a hot plate for smoke
@scalawaggywakyman garbage cans are typically galvanized, the galvanizing
process is typically used for any type of metal that'll touch liquid pr
water. Your run of the mill sheet metal is NOT galvanized. The best
suggestion I have for making a smoker is to find one of those old vertical
ice boxes with the latch handle, and put a controllable heating element in
the bottom and cut you a hole on top. You can find them on clist on the
cheap usually-happy smokin'!
For how long did you smoke it.. You did not tell os about the temperture
inside..! I know that I Can find these information somplace else, but it
would be nice to round it up with som more hints on how to do it .. " take
it all the way" so to speak.. But the idear was brilliant.. I'm not from
the States , so I dont get electricety thrown at mé for allmost free.. Can
you do it with wood or anything else?? If so, how..? But thanks for the
tips anyway!!
Re: zinc coating. When I was researching DIY bike frame building, I read
about the dangers of zinc oxide fumes. But they were talking about fumes
released during arc welding. Hopefully the zinc coated containers would not
reach a high enough temperature from mere exposure to hot smoke, or even
direct contact with hot charcoal to release zinc oxide fumes. Perhaps an
expert in the field can chime in?
we have another smoker show on our youtube channel, where we make a
cardboard box into a smoker, and that show has most of the cooking temp
info you need. you could put a metal pan of charcoal in the bottom of this
DIY smoker along with the wet wood chips, you may have to add charcoal
during the smoking process. let me know any more questions, thanks for
watching, please consider subscribing, eric.
I'm an American Welding Society Certified Welder and Zn in that form is
really toxic to humans, although you "burned" it off, metal is still a
porous substance and can still contain the elemental chemical. I've heard
of people getting really sick from homemade smokers that contain chemicals
like Sulfur and other petro chemicals. Be careful buddy.
That galvanizing is nasty sh!t, you really need to avoid it. This was a
good idea beside that though. Try doubling up some nuts on the end of the
grate bolts to keep it from sliding off, you could even sandwich a washer
in between the nuts to make sure it stays put.
To keep the grill from slipping off the carriage bolts, you might consider
bolting washers on them near their tips. That way when the grill is plopped
on the carriage bolts, they'll be prevented from slipping off their ends.
What do you think?
Nice ideal except for the galvanized metal.But question did that little hot
plate and that iron skillett get hot enough to actually cook that fish
done.I know it musta been done you were eating it.but its hard to believe
it cooked that well?
THIS IS POISON!!!!!! DON"T DO THIS UNLESS YOU WANT TO DIE!!!! Galvinized
metal is coted with a zync compound that is very toxic. Use steel,
stainless steel, terra cota or a cardboard box. Just don't use this stuff.
Do not use this. Galvanised metal at this temp. releases gas that binds
itself into the meat and causes poisoning or death. Please remove this
video you can cause other people's death....
you can get them at roofing supply places and farm supply catalogs. farmers
use them to kill weeds in the field. be careful with it. it hooks up to a
regular propane tank.
hey bro did u get sick from that caus eof the gav steel cause u said it was
ahrmfull and i was wondering if u burnt it all off and what the crates
where for orginaly?
Yeah trash that thing! good idea, but stay away from Galvanized!
BassSlayer1 is correct about the toxicity if this junk. Listen to us
weldors PLEASE! happy smoking!
@xtxxxnx are garbage cans also galvanized? I'd like to know if I could use
it to make a smoker. And what about typical sheet metal..? Are they mostly
gavalnized?
Love how all these "metal experts" say not to use this or that...but then
don't give any suggestions, if your gonna comment at least back up what
your saying
Looks good! When you sat the grill down on the bolts for the first time I
thought, wow, that has potential to fall while it's hot. ..and then it fell
:)
almost any kind of hardwood alder, cedar, pecan, apple, oak, hickory,
cherry few others but I adore alder when smoking fish good stuff

+AeroForceOne Good point, maximum load is about 110 lb which would be adequate for most people. Can always choose another table with higher maximum load if needed
Looking at doing this for my new studio desk! Looks like the
annefors/ullrik table leg storage units have disappeared though :( Any
recommendations? It was perfect to house a PC tower.
+Kev Parsons Looks like IKEA discontinued this item, have a look on their website for similar size item. The Alex storage unit or Alex drawer unit is a similar size
For desk at 1:23 I believe these are the items: Desk top: Vika Amon 59″ x 31″ Desk legs: Vika Moliden Upper shelf: Ekby Amund 59″ x 11″ Upper legs: Capita Additional upper support brackets: Ekby ToreFor the desk at 1:36 use some items from my build(//youtu.be/yk3z-xXYG5k) and the items for build at 1:23 and you will get a good build. Also could check items from this build (//youtu.be/8LDrpsbBOZk)
+Ludwin V I think I found the answer to this question, custom build by a carpenter by the looks of it : https://www.gearslutz.com/board/7054656-post17.html
have a look though ikea's catalog online and create your own version of this desk, more work to create it but be worth it :) .. You may need to to source some items from other retailers if ikea no longer stocks similar to this desk

+whyshouldidothatnow Its actually something different. The GORM is discontinued and the Hejne is similar to it. Thanks for the advice though, I bought one on your recommendation
+Dillon Guelich thank you! But I wish the shipping charge wasn't so crazy. A $9 purchase turns into an almost $20 purchase. I guess it's still cheaper and more fun than buying a premade pedalboard
There will be a gap from the top of the cabinet to the ceiling. If that is
not a problem you should consider Measuring the back side of both cabinets
stacked and then leave about one inch to a gap from the top cabinet to the
ceiling. Than mount the bottom first and then the top last. Measuring and
finding the studs in the wall are very important in this task. If you have
the wall mounting kit that is sold separately from the cabinet. You will
have instructions there on how to mount it.
What are those brackets called that you are putting on the wall to hang the
cabinets from? We are trying to mount a besta/framsta unit right now and
are having a difficult time.
Not sure if you got my last message... the tool that i was using was a stud
finder... You can find one at your local hardware store. Builders square
home depot or lowes.
