Love your idea. I remember a Scotty Kilmer video about using smoke for vacuum leaks, etc. He suggested a tube and a cigar to blow smoke. Your idea is much, much better. Especially considering price of commercial ones. Way to go.

Don't think I've seen this before with sheetrock compound. Thanks for sharing neat idea.

Very nice.

Been there, done that with WindBlows. Love your fix. Thanks for sharing.

Groooovy!!! Love it. Thanks for sharing

Very good instructable. If I can add my two cents. I have an old woodburning iron with a nice flat circle to press with. Get that baby nice and hot and it works similar to your process. Rather than using the grill mat, I take a strip of heavy duty aluminum foil to cover the ends and melt the plastic together over a piece of scrap wood. Like you said, just a little practice and you get a feel for the right amount of time needed in the melting.

Very nice. I would try to tidy your wiring connections a little better. Watching you strip wires with a box cutter made me worry. Safety first. Thanks for sharing.

Love the finished product. Kudos on the video. Let me guess, you spouse is the camera person? Very good film scripting.

Very nice. Good restoration

Very nice. One additional thing I would do. Fill the cut edges with elmers glue. Then when dry, you can easily paint over it with a nice matching paint from the recycling center or maybe a couple bucks from a big box or wallyworld. It makes a very smooth surface and would finish it nicely. I once picked up a desk that had the front trim damaged and after I peeled off the front laminate, it looked better than ever doing this.

Very nice. I was thinking about doing a wooden raised bed, might have to rethink it now.

Back 30 years ago we had a small apartment sized washer/dryer set. These fit in a closet and we would wheel them into the kitchen. The washer drained down the kitchen sink and the dryer had something commercially similar to what you made. During the summer, it was a non issue, we just vented it to an open window. During the winter though, it made the apartment way too damp. However things like cotton sheets and things that dry quickly, it worked. Things like bath towels, etc we ended up drying in the public dryers. Too much moisture in a home is never a good thing. Thanks for sharing, just monitor what you are drying

I find that a steel wool "Brillo" pad used for pots and pans works well to remove small rust pits and works well to clean the rims. You can also use common vinegar after the rims are cleaned to neutralize the metal pinholes before waxing. Vinegar is a great rust neutralizer. You can take an old rusty motor cycle or lawn mower gas tank, put in some vinegar, some bb's (like from a bb gun). Close the openings and shake the everloving xxxx out of it. The bb's will chip out the rust flakes and the vinegar will help to seal it.

Yup, that is what I am talking about. You put a dap of valve grinding compound on the phillips bit on your impact screwdriver. It will bite like crazy

wow!!! Very nicely done

Thanks for sharing. Love your idea.

very nice, perfect for the mancave

very nice video

Reminds me of the Sevrinson fart scale we had in college awarding points from 0 to 10.Points were awarded as suchVolume 0 to 3Duration 0 to 3Stench 0 to 3Bonus of 1 point if you left something behind in your underwear

That looks better than most cars. Very nice

Very nice presentation. Good catch on the Japanese philips screws, many people do not realize that. One addition you might try is valve grinding compound. Apply it to the tip of the screwdriver, it gives the screwdriver bite like you wouldn't believe. Whenever I go after screws that I suspect are somewhat seized, I apply that. It might prevent stipping out a screw head.
