[@chrisbalodis2570]

Hey Meike, it would have been ok to use the Oatey All Purpose PVC cement that you used on the farm. Makes for a stronger connection. Thanks for another great video. You never disappoint.

[@WhatMeikeMakes]

I wanted to use that but I had left that in Florida and did not want to buy anything new. So I went with the glue instead :-) I agree tho, would have probably been the best options after all it’s made for it

[@almogozi7460]

[@kevinshea4353]

I use painters' tape to keep the glue from getting on the clamps. It also keeps any stains from getting on the wood. The glue tends to turn the metal clamp bar black.

[@WhatMeikeMakes]

@@kevinshea4353 thanks for the tip Kevin! Best wishes to you

[@tomtruesdale6901]

Great video and I never thought of vinegar as a glue remover. If you put steel wool in vinegar and let it sit for a few days you can use it to 'age' wood especially pressure treated fence boards. I must also say you are very flexible. LOL

[@WhatMeikeMakes]

Hey Tom, yes vinegar is great for a lot of things. I used to always make my own stain with it and steel wool too. I let it sit for over a year and the color was amazing. Also I use black teabags for stain. Vinegar is so versatile.

[@tomtruesdale6901]

@@WhatMeikeMakes You can add to olive oil and put it on a salad also.. 😀

[@MakeitZUPER]

After doing epoxy glue ups, I've been using wax paper between the wood/plastics/metals and clamps. It's been a huge labor saver. I have a process that will help you with CNC work also, but it's a much longer conversation.

[@WhatMeikeMakes]

Thanks for sharing, I’ve used painters tape in the past but I get too lazy after a while and just let the glue get all over. Well now having found an easy way to get the glue off I might just get all messy with it 😜

[@MakeitZUPER]

@@WhatMeikeMakes I meant placing a full width sheet or more depending on the size laying flat across the entire project spanning all the clamps.

[@woutere]

Tip: Before applying glue to a plastic tube, it is best to sand it with sandpaper. Sand the first part in 1 direction. The surface now has small grooves in that direction. Sand the other part in the other direction, so that the grooves have a pattern that is perpendicular to each other. Apply the glue to each part in the direction of the grooves. Because the plastic is rougher, the glue adheres better and the cross pattern creates a tight and stronger connection.

[@WhatMeikeMakes]

@@woutere thank you for the tip! Best wishes to you

[@nicholasfiorucci1162]

You sure do got a nice set of clamps❤

[@WhatMeikeMakes]

👍

[@catfish53]

a tip for you is cut a strip of waxed paper as long as you need for your project and put a slight fold lengthwise on it so it will stay on the bars. when you glue the parts and place them in the clamps the waxed paper will cover the bars and keep them clean. good tip about the vinegar

Pretty cool, never thought of using vinegar. Honestly my first thought to remove rust was Coca-Cola soda. Lol. I might have to try vinegar on some rusty staging I have. Except I don't have a way of soaking the locks for the support braces. Maybe I can soak a rag and wrap it around. What to you think?

[@rongrose3746]

I like Home Depot lumber as well . Much better than Lowes, in my opinion.

I agree to as for lumber in my area as well… even tho it still isn’t that good unfortunately

Line the clamp bars with tuck tape prior to glueing

I use painters tape sometimes but then I get lazy or forget and then glue is all over again… 🤷‍♀️

Hi, Essig - das natürliche Wundermittel in Bad und Abfluss. Im Zusammenhang mit Holzleim wendete ich es noch nie an! Da Holzleim bei Metallen Korrosion auslösen kann, reinige ich sofort oder decke es mit der Zeitung von gestern ab. Leider geht das nicht immer. Deine Figur ist ein Traum! Zählst du zu den glücklichen, bei denen das einfach so, so ist? Oder täglich Training? (Daran könntest du uns teilhaben lassen. ) Wenn dir mal nix zu basteln einfallen sollte... Sprossenwand für Klimmzüge und Situps, oder ein multifunktionale Bank,,, dir fällt etwas ein... Zwischen den Ohren bist du ganz offensichtlich auch fit! Schön zu wissen, dir auf deutsch schreiben zu können. VGvG

[@cabman86]

I use vinegar on so much in my house. Did you know that it's better than bleach for removing mold?

[@WhatMeikeMakes]

I never knew it did a better job scientifically speaking… but I do make my own vinegar for eating and I make my own lemon scented vinegar to clean my kitchen and bathroom.

[@cabman86]

@@WhatMeikeMakes If your clothes smell sweaty after washing, like mine do, add about 1/4 cup to the wash and it goes away.

[@cabman86]

@@WhatMeikeMakes You should do a tutorial on making vinegar,

[@budm9982]

Paste was is a great idea for the clamp bars after they are clean. I find that a heat gun and scraper works quickly and no pipe rack standing around cluttering up the shop. If you do the pvc pipes, why not pick up pvc cement from the same store aisle as the pipe? Also, no bowls or tubs around to pour the vinegar into for soaking the hand tools? Why ruin the original vinegar container when it could be poured back into the bottle and saved for other projects?

[@carlotrope5193]

Great video I must also say that you are very beautiful and talented.

[@WhatMeikeMakes]

Thank you! 😊

[@HyperSpaceProphet]

wire brush on a drill or a 4 inch grinder makes the glue pop right off. Use wax or Strike Hold as a cover to prevent it from sticking again. ' Still, a nice project.

Nice, despite no sanding. 🙄

[@WhatMeikeMakes]

KZbin has been giving me trouble because they say me having fun while sanding is sexual explicit and if I keep doing it I will loose my channel… so I guess I gotta slow down with the sanding dance a bit and just take that to Patreon. So frustrating

Vinegar is acidic so it eats rust and glue

[@WhatMeikeMakes]

Yes it does and it’s a good alternative to the stronger chemicals! It’s so versatile. However I would say it more softened the glue not fully eats it 🙃

[@charlesmcclure5994]

Not cleaning your tools after you use them you are a bad girl just don't let this happen again I'm keeping my eye on you

[@WhatMeikeMakes]

I’m always trying to get better! I’ll make sure to clean my tools from now on… at least every 6 months 😜

[@WNCworks]

Use some parchment paper between your clamps and workpiece to keep glue from dripping on the clamps and your workbench. Vinegar has many uses in the shop, and it cleans old paintbrushes as well!

[@paulduffy697]

[@WhatMeikeMakes]

Thanks for watching!

[@micklatham3425]

I just tap the solid glue with a small hammer. And use an old chisel to scrape it off

[@WhatMeikeMakes]

Great tip, thanks for sharing! I just don’t want to scratch up the clamps like crazy, the chisels have already left some marks and aren’t able to clean out all the grooves along the top where the clamps side pieces slide on. You should give vinegar a try. You might be positively surprised

[@HyperSpaceProphet]

@@WhatMeikeMakes I will give it a try. I can see where it would work well in some instances. I have tools where a brass bush simply can't get into the places it needs to go. Remember though, vinegar is acid, it will eat the plating off of the steel . Use sparingly.
