Tape holder shelf, and prototyping

[@learnerlearns]

I learn something every time I watch your videos. In this one i learned: Modification of spade bits. (VERY useful!) Drilling technique. Problem solving. Manly men may proudly parade pink tools. Measuring and marking technique ( for depth) How to safely gang-cut cylindrical things, (PVC pipe) By accident, your prototype might be the world's fourth-best toilet-paper dispenser! All of that portends, ANY creative project might solve some ancillary problem, therefore ALL creative projects may have ancillary value. Even if projects are not immediately perfect, they have intrinsic and potential value. All of THAT may be one the the primordial purposes of creativity: evolution. Apothegm: All creative effort reaps multiple benefits. Mazel Tov!

[@cognitor900]

Ditto, writ large!!! Love the ironic understated honest style.... Without a flannel shirt and beard anywhere - unless Charlize Theron was wearing them....but like anything Charlize I can never honestly say what she was wearing as I just get captivated looking at her. But I did concentrate until we got to there, promise!!! Cheers and thanks for the editing work etc in getting it to KZbin.

[@nickwilson1476]

I get more from watching how you solve problems, than by which problems you solve.

[@alekakis80]

From Greece with love. First of all sorry for my bad English. Very nice amd useful constuction. At 10:05 you could (if you want) screw at pipe a blade of a hacksaw for easy cut of the tape. Thanks!!!

[@12poulet21]

DUDE! i was not expecting you to use it as a dispense. i thought you will use it only as a rack. that brilliant

[@alexpower5691]

Wow with what he did with his spade bit that shows real dedication great job pocket 👍

[@GeekMustHave]

Very nice. Sometimes what we think are our best ideas just end up fails. You just remember what you learned and approach the problem from a different angle. I saw you using tools in simple combinations that I never thought of before. The measuring and cutting of the PVC pipe was a very useful tip. Thank you. Keep broadcasting!!

[@caleche8655]

Woahooo... untill 10'04", I did'nt imagined how usefull it would be. Felicitations Monsieur pour cette merveilleuse invention :) ( French " fan " )

[@hypnolobster]

Holy shit, the rubberband on the coping saw. My world has shattered.

[@TrotterG]

What did that accomplish?

[@KesslerWB]

Wow, a month or so from now you should have exactly 100k subs, you've come a long way Pocket, congrats.

[@Jer_Schmidt]

There is a wealth of ideas in every pocket83 video! This looks like a clever solution to me at least! :)

[@JohnHeisz]

+Jeremy Schmidt I especially like how it becomes a handy dispenser without even taking the roll down.

[@Jer_Schmidt]

+John Heisz Exactly!

[@PraetorianCuber]

I remember your really awesome makeshift set up with your phone camera, but now your camera work and quality is even more amazing, keep up the good work pocket!

[@TheodoreStagnum]

the finesse in your work is incredible! well done

[@datadev1]

I don't think you can get to the good ideas without making at least a few dumb ones. Sometime I will over think a problem and come up with a complicated solution when there is a much simpler one right in front of my nose. Nicely done. I like your tip about grinding a spade bit to a specific size. Handy.

[@omabluevenice]

You have a cool shop. I noticed the golf ball on your drill press and the mirror too. Interesting.

[@Nahtanojrepus]

Nice one, pocket. A couple years ago, I came up with a term for this kind of replacement: "undumbing". It has a quite fun ring to it. Also, 2 birds with one stone, undumbing both your tape holder and the horror that is the toilet roll holder. Seriously those things are such a pain.

[@claeswikberg8958]

so i know it hasn't been a year yet, but how are you liking the tape holder so far?, looked like a pretty good idea, atleast for bigger rolls... maybe with an old hacksawblade attached to the bottom, that could work as a cutoff edge for the tape?

[@MikeWarren]

I've been puzzling my tape storage for a while now, too. We had similar ideas, but I incorporated a hacksaw blade as the ripping edge. Though, I still need to build mine. I think it's a great idea (and not dumb at all)!

[@pocket83]

What about one of those metal edges from a box of plastic-wrap? Maybe on (or in) the gray tube. You just gave me another idea: What if the tape was put in this thing backwards, so that static electricity and gravity both worked in your favor? Then the adhesive side would move up towards the blade, instead of sticking on the lower pipe. Requires further experimentation ;)

[@ou8nucks630]

I was thinking the same thing man, I've saw the hacksaw blade incorporated as the "cutter" as well. I've been in desperate need of a tape roll myself and this is one of the best I've seen thus far.

[@OllyParryJones]

Looks like a smart idea and a definite improvement over the old. I also noticed the mirror on your pillar drill (great idea) and witnessed a method for evenly grinding a spade bit. :-)

[@banjowoodsman7675]

Great idea. For the very small rolls hang them under the stand with a cord or small chain with a tee on the end like on some older style tool belts. Thanks for the video.

[@kevinkelemen6259]

Hehe the portrait next to the sander

[@MI-jp4nq]

+Kevin Kelemen Obviously a red herring. My guess is that it's the default photo that came with the frame.

[@molasseshands]

Hey pocket, I made something like this recently and for the small roles I made a smaller set of pipes above. I agree with what you said about availability because I didn't even cut out the side pieces, I just used two small corner shelves I salvaged

[@BBURN2007]

I like it! I'm using that first system you showed and its.. annoying.. I may add an old hack saw blade on the bottom for ripping the tape off :)

[@J0hnyJakn0ve]

Great project and video, just found you channel and can't stop watching. You could put another support board under the middle piece of pvc and screw a hacksaw blade to it so that you can use it as built in tape cutter

[@BogzTemplates]

i think it's much more efficient than the pipes vertical to the wall. I'll definitely try this kind of setup. Thanks for the inspiration! P.s. i really like your videos

[@johnconklin9039]

Very clever solution. My problem is getting to be wall space for nifty things like that.

[@leksey7870]

Useful video about the arrangement of the workshop. Like!

[@benjamenkovalev2259]

Love your videos! Can't imagine coming up with these kind of ideas myself. Keep up the good work!

[@jaylai8462]

New subscriber! Just found your channel today. Your videos are very enjoyable and one can tell you put a lot of thoughts into them. Very creative! Keep up the good work!! Also, love the humour !!!

[@MakingItOutOfTheWoods]

Love the prototype in the end too - so spoilers!!! Nice project 🌲🦊🌲

[@dedeksaputra5693]

love to see your process of works dude

[@johnfarrell5647]

best tape rack ever just so simple but awe some

[@gamingSlasher]

Hehe, enjoyable video. I think I learn most from others mistakes if they are presented in a good way. Matthias Wandel has made some videos like that lately but it is very unusual that people want to admit their dumb ideas. Regarding that it reminds me of one thing that bugs me about education. All through school you are shown what works and told what we know but I think I never heard a lesson about what we dont know. Isnt that just as important to know but it is all up to you to discover that for yourself. You have a very distorted view when you leave school, thinking that you know everything.

[@michaelcasella4774]

very cool. I love your videos such amazing ideas with high quality video.

[@pocket83]

+Michael Casella I appreciate it!

[@vickierayhill4637]

What about affixing an old hacksaw blade under the rack so when you pull your tape out the bottom, you wont have to cut it off separately?

[@anon39028]

great video. new subscriber, really like the rubber band clamp video and shop videos in general.

[@pocket83squared]

Thank you. I hope you find some of this content helpful. I also have a second channel (the one I'm using to reply to you now) that is less structured. Lots of shop stuff there, too.

[@anon39028]

your puzzle videos are great too. all around great channel.

[@jimw.5869]

i like it. great scrape wood project too

[@dtec30]

You could also put a small tray on the front for the small tapes

[@bigwoz78]

Awesome video. Keep up the great work.

[@jebowlin3879]

That is the single most impressive toilet paper dispenser, I have ever seen, js.

[@JeronimoJGC]

Tape holder idea demonstration, very funny!!

[@mathboy1212]

If you attached a blade to the pvc that the tape was sticking to in the last scene, it would work just like a huge tape dispenser. That would make it one handed for grabbing even the packing tape.

[@acolyteturner]

I have to watch all your videos at least twice to catch all the discreet meanings, subliminal messages and innuendo! Sorry if that confused your viewer numbers ;-) Keep up the great work Tom

[@LarsSveen]

Hooray for Metroid art!

[@mr2octavio]

What about a second row of smaller pipes below the main pipes, so the smalles tapes go there.

[@karagiannwoodmade9330]

This little mirror on the pilar of the drill press, is there any usage or it just lost its way?

[@AWBuilder]

Fun to watch, but maybe the exposed tape ends will collect shop dust?

[@sfischer1979]

It's been 4 years, is it still the right design?

[@pocket83]

It's not bad! There are some little copper wire pegs along the top part now, just for little rolls of electrical tape. All in all, it has been pretty good to me. I still recommend.

[@ianelley]

Good stuff ! I had an idea while watching this, what about using some guttering or cutting a pvc pipe using what ever diameter you think appropriate ? You could glue or fix a hack saw blade to the edge to cut the tape. Just a thought, keep up the good work !

[@rchopp]

Very cool design, thanks

[@BigManko]

Great idea, i think i will build something similar for storing 3D-Printing Filament. I have one question though, what does the rubber-band do on the coping saw? (My coping saw is a stream of amplified photons, so i rarely use one with a blade)

[@nicholaslau3194]

Started out as a tape holder, ended up making a failed tape holder, but an excellent toilet paper dispenser

[@syth406]

I might try a metal rod loaded with cheap bearings in place of the tube farthest in the front. Maybe the one after that too. Depends on how cheap I can get them.

[@eronth]

Consider putting a small bar on the side to hold the little rolls? Since they're liable to end up on the device anyways, may as well try to give them somewhere to belong.

[@DaveScurlock]

04:58 - 05:51 was super satisfying!

[@wiser82]

That intro was hilarious

[@chadryk5]

This is so good!

[@propaneaccessories1309]

Did you cut the paper towel roll in half?

[@ramonaschultheiss3870]

OH MY I almost wet myself when I saw your picture of Matthias. HAHAHAHAHA! You're amazing, dude! But let's be honest: Aeon Flux was a terrible movie :-D

[@raleighsexton7734]

But I'm much more likely to keep a pic of Charlize Theron around than Mattias Wandel, I think!

[@robertsulley]

the roll of tissue in the prototype... is that a kitchen roll cut in half? Great video btw

[@Majoofi]

What's the rubber band on the saw for?

[@elianleon7062]

nice job 👍

[@raleighsexton7734]

I have lots more tape, so I used 30" of broomstick and two broom clips. All hangs under the edge of my workbench.

[@Makebuildmodify]

Nice!

[@gothicsoldier]

I'm a defender of the Aeon Flux movie, unpopular opinion as it may be. I liked it for what it was - maybe not quite what the animated one was, but worthwhile. Now the would-be knockoff in Ultraviolet, well.... that was trash.

[@ausieking]

lol the picture next to the sander at 6:50

[@boybrushedred18]

That's not him. That is another youtuber named Matthias Wandel. He also has very good videos.

[@deniskenn]

cool chozo statue

[@daver6815]

Killer Beard Bro!

[@dannielmilton9387]

Hay Pocket83 how are u I was just wondering if u had made part 2 for the slingshot video I know I'm a little be hind the times I would like to try to make this slingshot. tks Stanley f--k up lol

[@TealCheetah]

So how is it?

[@PAFrogBoy]

Wow, very clever indeed

[@nemocheerio]

Rubber band on the coping saw! Why don't I think of these things‽

[@danyala.1659]

Awesome bro!

[@SleepyMechanic]

Wow, you are improving so much! good job on this one! PS: The MCC is to high nowadays

[@ramrod126]

If it looks dumb but it works, it isn't dumb.

[@TheHayes32]

little shelf on top for the small rolls

[@neoduck4269]

Just out of curiosity, what shape is that in your logo? I really like your channel, by the way, you're definitely one of my favorite KZbinrs.

[@pocket83]

Thanks ;) That is called an octahedron. It's an interesting shape because it is the duel of a cube, which means that each of its tips touches one of the sides of a cube. It's like a little diamond that balances inside of a box.

[@neoduck4269]

+pocket83 Cool! Thanks for answering. It really shows that you appreciate your fans.

[@ThatGuyHeyoGaming]

Your MCC is too low on the scale. It is infinitely expanding as more and more memes are produced. Anyway, very interesting video. Keep up the great work :P

[@mathboy1212]

It took like 20 tries on my iPad to get the freeze frame exactly right to see this. So funny.

[@EddyNordlander]

So was it a dumb idea or a clever solution? Its been a year, so whats the verdict?

[@pocket83]

Meh. I'm not frustrated by it. I added some little hooks up top for little rolls, like for electrical tape. I feel like there could still be a better solution out there, but this is the best thing I've had yet.

[@TheUnlocked]

I found it funny how you sanded off part of your bit because it was too large. xD

[@patrickmorrissey2271]

Very Nice!!!

[@fragias1988]

The link of the template is not working.Please link the template.

[@pocket83]

Fixed. Thanks.

[@jespernoren]

about 8 yers later, i want to know, was it a good idea or not? 😄

[@pocket83squared]

Still virtually unchanged. It's the best I can come up with for an annoying problem. I'd say I'm _somewhat_ happy with it.

[@jespernoren]

@@pocket83squared amazing!! thanks for the update, will build my own one day =)

[@lapischicken]

that's really smart!

[@hundredhundred-thousand7951]

clever solution

[@mersilvaureus1525]

+pocket83 So first off I want to say that I love your videos. Also, for what it's worth, I like how you don't slow down the sound when you speed up the video. I've been watching some other people who do stuff like you, (because I've seen all of your videos) and when they slow down the sound back to real time it's weird...

[@pocket83]

Thanks! At this point, I'm in around a two hundred vids, counting hidden content, other channels, and stuff I haven't posted. I've tried quite a few editing techniques now. I tried that speed with normal sound, but then you have to add the multiplier for clarity (4x, etc.). The pitch change does that for you. Clarity is key here. As for the speed-up in general, I'm torn. For one, it's almost too easy to film that way, because it is so easy to edit. It's also incredibly misleading. But it's so cool looking!

[@hakeemm3574]

smart ideas .

[@zrman96]

Lol you cut a roll of paper towel in half just for that!?! :D I would have too

[@celes6402]

Clever solution

[@johnjohnoj6408]

perfect

[@samiam7]

It's been a year... Still like it?

[@pocket83]

Meh. I still can't Think of anything better. It doesn't frustrate me, so I guess I like it ;) I added little hooks to the top rail for smaller rolls. They are like a 'p' shape from copper wire. If those rolls fall off, they just fall in to the tape holder, so I like that.

[@GoGreenMan]

well it's been a year, do you still like it? You totally missed the chance to put an old saw blade or the blade from an empty box of aluminum foil on there for cutting the tape. lol

[@VeteranVandal]

The demonstration of how bad your idea was, was comical at least. It must be cool to Chase tapes...

[@veveyolloo1773]

cool

[@squidsquid6327]

I only subscribed because of the hidden stuff. Got it: memes. nah joke. Allthough i can't build stuff, i love your video's.

[@loveshack8172]

Your vids are fucking sweet dude.

[@cadymj78]

Your mind is incredible. I wish you were my fwend.

[@alazrabed]

So, should we expect -- as the emigrating concepts become day and day more tangible and finally burst their way into space and time in this gigantic eruption of hitherto unseen energy fated to collapse into infinitesimal frontiers -- should we expect, I say, the end of the universe in every way we can possibly know it by the year twenty-twenty ? Boy, that escalated quickly.

[@pocket83]

+alazrabed No. It would be the end of conscious creatures that you ought dread, if such a threat were to pose itself. But that isn't any close concern; men are and will be only temporary, but the universe has now become aware, and it will be here for a long time. But yeah, you really jumped right in there without even putting a toe in the water first. Brass tacks. I like that.

[@johngotts7282]

lol dat graph should be memed right now...

[@NickCybert]

Can't say I was a fan of the live action AF. To each their own I suppose.

[@pocket83]

+NickCybert What is the AF?

[@pocket83]

Oh, got it- AEON FLUX! I was a fan of the Liquid T.V. series, and I wanted Sigourney Weaver; resultant disappointment. But years later I realized that it was a brilliant movie in its own right.

[@NickCybert]

+pocket83 How so? I just remember everything about feeling off and awkward.

[@johnwolfenden7599]

Watch out. I almost saw your face at 7:50.
