Projection Camera, 3D Printed Camera Using Old iPhone
Had a go at building a camera that works by projecting and image and then recording the projection using a mobile phone.
I love the effect and its simplicity, a little bit of experimental film making with a camera I built myself.

CCTV Movie Camera. 'VHS look' camera using scrap kit and parts.

I wanted to create a 'VHS' effect camera to enable a retro film look. This is a short film and explanation of how the camera was built. I've tried to put together something that looks like you found an old VHS cassette at the back of cupboard and played it to see what was on it.

Subscribe and ring the bell: bit.ly/3XwLuSW I needed a macro camera rig to film some of the closer details of the TH-cam filming projects I have planned. It had to be a quick and simple DIY project, using the GoPro Hero 10 Black I already have. I decided to use a macro lens adaptor for macro photography. This fitted onto the front of the GoPro 10 and had interchangeable lenses for different mag...

I set myself a challenge to run a half marathon for the Movember charity and it all started with an assembly I presented to the school I work at. I knew the route was further than half a Marathon and had never run that distance before. I didn’t want to do a road run. Some sort of trail running would be better suited to my search for adventure. The challenge was a virtual half marathon and was r...

An assembly on the move, addressing the issues that the Movember charity supports.
Thanks for this. I don't run but I have exactly the same problem with Vibram-soled hiking boots: heels are wearing down on the corner but boots are otherwise in superb condition. I've tried Shoo Goo but it wears down too quickly. Going to give this fix a try.
Well done. good ideas.
I wear soles out, so I thought when you smeared the glue on, I can build up layers and voilà, new soles. Probably will have to sand them up a bit for a grip, but should be sound as a pound, nice one mate.
pray 4 me
It's even faster with the pan as a lid! Take a look at the Trangia logo: The "T" is also the instruction manual! WITH the lid, the hot air builds up around the pot and can only escape if it flows under the edge of the lid over the upper edge of the windshield - but hot air wants to rise and not sink down. This is the only way to achieve acceptable cooking times with the alcohol burner and it saves a lot of gas with the gas burner!
You mum told you to hold scissors in the stabby stabby grip
Use tyvek as tent or tarp?
Neil, thanks for this very interesting tutorial. I have subbed to learn more. just a question, how heaving where the finished dry bags the 55 ltr in particular?
1:20 where did you get the pair of heels? thx
kinda 80`s feeelings.
Excellent video of an excellent money-saving repair! I enjoyed your dry bag video too.
What an excellent video . Many thanks 👍
Awesome! Thank you so much. 🇨🇦💕
Well done my friend. They look awesome .
Why not use Shoe Goo as an adhesive or is it in your opinion Gorilla a better one at that?
So smart.
Not sure if you know this but if youre wearing the heel out like that youre striking wrong and it could be hurting your knees. Im not a specialist or anything but Ive been told that usually means yours stride is too long or youre not keeping your feet underneath you enough while youre running. Good luck and well done
Our ancestors use to run barefooted or with rags for shoes and you worry about a 1/8 tick piece of hill 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I hope we can both go on a run together I love running with you dad ❤
It was very hard doing the camera work but the end result was amazing and I hope to go back to marks woodland soon ❤️
Hi dad I really loved being in Blackpool with you Winnie Connie Rachel Nick and mum it was one of the best weekends ever luv ya dad xx ❤
Good job!
Do you think it would be possible to use this for making the skin on a folding kayak?
Specialist...
Terrific! My lugs always wear out beneath the big toe first.I will try this once i'm there
What isn't cheaper than a starbucks coffee...
Love the texture!
Thank you.
What power input does your cctv camera take? I'm looking into making my own using a Panasonic SD5 WV-CP504, but the power input is this 3 prong one I've never seen before.
Hi. Thanks for the comment. I’m not sure about power consumption but the voltage is 12v DC which is standard for CCTV. The pin configuration might be for DC pin1 / 12v pin 2 0v and AC pin 1 / pin 3 24v.
Absolutely brilliant neil
Thanks Mark. Posted a video at last😂
Super drybag
How many Starbucks ups of coffee did not cost for the scissors? Gaffer Tape? Ruler? The international method of determining cost. Nice!
Love it❤️And I can answer your questions. Tape = 1 SC (Starbucks Coffee) ruler = 2SC and scissors were second hand and cost a surprising 0.75 = SC at a junk sale.
@@neilsimmondsmediaproject hahaha. That’s awesome! Thanks for indulging me
Your mom told you to carry scissors in the "ice pick" knife stab mode? damn man I wont mess with your mom!🤣
That made me laugh. Well done. If you could see my mother 😂 bless her! As a ninja assassin though? You’re more likely to get Donald Trump to join a monastery in Tibet.
@@neilsimmondsmediaproject 🤣cheers
tyvek is a good start..... but i wouldnt trust tape..... need to find a good way to plastic weld the seams shut.
Something to keep in mind is that some tyvec is chemically treated to be mold and mildew resistant and you might not want that in contact with the things you're storing in the bag.
No actual demonstration that it's waterproof.
This same method using a very permeable fabric would be a guide on how to make grow bags.
You have to be insane to trust piece of tape to hold warerproof.
Hi. Thanks for the comment. You’re probably right. I did give a warning about not using them in critical situations. Cheap and cheerful. You can of course up scale the principle from tape to ultrasonic welding of vinyl sheeting. Costs a bit more though. 😂
You looked like a firefly in those yellow clothes dad but you’re still the best dad in the world (even when you look like a firefly) 😂
This is by far the best video you’ve made so far (and I also love how 8yr old me was in the end!) 🎉❤
That looked awesome dad ❤😊😂
I hope you enjoyed that tea dad, it looked really nice (apart from the fly in it 😂)
I did!
Very creative invention dad well done 👍🏻❤
Hi dad, you’re doing so well at TH-cam ❤ Keep it up 👍🏻
Hey, thanks
What is gaffer tape? Im in the us and all i can think is that it might be like duct tape.
Hi. Thanks for asking. It is duct tape. We even have a company in the UK called Duck that make gaffer tape! The best stuff to use is the specialist tape made for joining this type of membrane. But it’s not cheap.
due to lack of trae skills dind't know shiny surfaces are hard to glue
Thanks for the comment. The glue has more to grip if the surface is rough. 👍
Although I haven’t used my Trangia for years, I recall that using the frying pan as a lid on the pots reduced boil time significantly
Hi. Thanks for the comment. You are of course right. But I left the lid off for effect, to see the water boiling. 👍
You my friend are a complete GEE KNEE OUS I think I'll try this on a pair of Topo Athletic that I just wore down. Thanx for the video my Running 🏃 Brother 👍 ⚔️ ✝️ 🇺🇲
Thanks for the comment. And many thanks. God bless you kind sir.
Great video! Yes, more repair videos would be great!
Brits do it best. 😊
Thanks for the comment. Kind of you.
I gotta say, I thought you were crazy when you held up the new rubber heel, but it looks like you did an absolutely wonderful job. Congrats
Thank you! 😊
