How to cut plywood using foam
How to use smaller pieces of foam to support 4x8 sheet goods for cutting with a circular saw. Much easier to handle than using 2x4's to support the sheet goods and much easier to store than a full sheet of foam.

Plywood Drywall 4 Wheel Dolly
มุมมอง 2.7K3 ปีที่แล้ว
In this video I show a 4 wheel dolly that can transport sheet goods and is adjustable up to 2" to transport 1-3/4" solid core doors. (For more info, click "SHOW MORE" below) Because of the 4 wheels and wide wheel base it's stable in both x and y axes allowing easy transport on smooth or bumpy surfaces like grass. The 8" wheels give bump resistance and the casters give manuverability. I mainly b...

Thoroughly wash and rinse your hands for the covid-19 corona virus
มุมมอง 2814 ปีที่แล้ว
Consider using this thorough washing procedure when returning home after going shopping or other public outings. Might be helpful to share it with elderly or other susceptible folks who want to go the extra mile. At 4:36 in the video, wash the faucet's handle with soap that's already on the fingertips. Then turn the faucet on. Rinse the fingertips, then rinse the soap and any virus off of the f...

How to use an angle grinder to cut and smooth concrete
มุมมอง 131K5 ปีที่แล้ว
How I used an angle grinder to cut down and smooth the ridge (high point) in our concrete driveway. The catalytic converter under our 2019 Honda Odyssey minivan was hitting the ridge as we drove into our carport. The technique can also be used to level high spots in a concrete floor. The result is a professional quality leveling without waves in the concrete that doing it just by freehand can h...

For plans info click "Show More" below. Make your generator or air compressor 5x quieter using a box that can be disassembled and stored. I also show the exhaust system that prevents carbon monoxide poisoning. I show a video of my 3500 watt generator running alone, and while it continues to run I assemble a quiet box that I built, around it. The video shows the audio waveform of the generator's...
Would a thinner (2inch) rockwool work as well?
Yes. Thanks for watching and have a great day! .... Usefulgizmos
Love your Ulua shirt
😉🙂👍 Thanks for watching and have a great day! .... Usefulgizmos
Awesome, but what about the temperature inside the box ? Again, great invention..
The fan blows cooling air through the quiet box. It works. Thanks for watching and have a great day! .... Usefulgizmos
Would have been nice to get the loud noise warning BEFORE the loud noise blew out my eardrums🤨🤦♂️
Very well done!
Good job buddy.
Thanks for watching and have a great day! .... Usefulgizmos
I know of some speed bumps that need this
My goodness! What a simple and elegant design! About as inexpensive as it could possibly be! Very inspiring.
Thank you sir. Thanks for watching and have a great day! .... Usefulgizmos
Outstanding video, definitely helped
Happy that you found it useful. Thanks for watching and have a great day! .... Usefulgizmos

Screw to what?
Best video.. you are a genius

Well this is rather complicated!
Amazing design Thank you for the detailed information.

Good build, thank you so much. Wade Out..

Could you specify which version of the Honda odyssey EX you drive? I’m kidding. Nice vid.
I purchased the instructions yesterday and they arrived this morning in an email. What an incredible amount of information provided!! The amount of instructions, drawings, sources, etc. is way more than worth the cost Morris asks. It looks like there would be little, if any, questions to ask. If anyone does have a question, Morris is willing and eager to try to answer them. Thanks for a great service!
Thank you very much for your kind comments. Wishing you a great build.
sheer genius😀
This is a very interesting a was thinking about how to make the generator more quiet good 👍 information
Thanks for watching and have a great day! .... Usefulgizmos
Genius !

Im wondering which size for bass and walleye fishing. 2000 or 2500?
For the first time I am sure, a 12+ minute video went by real fast. That's because it was exceptionally good and clear and useful as an instructional video. Thank you for setting the bar so high and sharing you great work. Just one thing though: no flip flops for jobs using tools and it would be best to kneel on one knee with your body/legs the "safe" side of the jig for added security.
I still have all of my toes 😉😁. Thanks for watching and have a great day! .... Usefulgizmos
Now I see why Honda always rates the ground clearance of the Odyssey at 4.5in. That is insanely low. Lower than most sports cars. Kinda dumb they couldnt figure out how to get 5-7in like most other minivans. At least its only the exhaust system and not the actual underside of the car.
Yes, the designers of the exhaust system for the 2018+ Odysseys should all be fired. It's the muffler, not the catalytic converter (I mistakenly called it the catalytic converter) that protrudes well below the underside of the van. Thanks for watching and have a great day! .... Usefulgizmos
@@RAPTOR8ASDF Agreed. Actually older Odysseys are also rated to be extremely low and have similar problems I believe. Actually a simpler fix would be to get taller tires and maybe even wheels for the car. Your speedometer would be off but that is the only major downside.
Where can I get the instructions
Thank you for sharing with excellent details, I shall model after yours Thank you.
interesting! Thanks for your good demo.
Thank you 👍
Wow. Just wow. I've seen a lot of quiet boxes on this TH-cam that didn't quiet anything, but this! It's s awesome.
Yes i agree and its so comprehensive such as the sound baffles.
excellent. One of the best stands out there.
Looking to purchase your plans for the generator quite house. How can i do that?
Very impressive! For a first video this is a job well done. Congrats!
Projeto muito funcional, simples, facil armazenagem e muito útil.
where can i purchase your plan?
how loud was the Generator? Was it like 90Db (as in very loud?) - and what was it after the box? 70Db? - I fail to understand what his meter thing was showing.
Thanks good job . Liked the explanation and the testimg
Where is the link for the plans?

Beautiful job! What did you use to hold the Rockwool in place on each piece and the top?

how about durability and overheat inside box? it can damage alternator soon.
Mineral wool insulation lasts forever as far as I know. The fan prevents overheating inside of the quiet box. Thanks for watching and have a great day! .... Usefulgizmos
I’ll never understand why so many people feel their generator needs to be quite. So what.
You are the problem
Thank you! Just what I was looking for.
Thank you for your technical review. I was on the fence on size difference for a whipping reel and now I have clarification. I have the 4000 and use it for dunking and I'm really happy with the bg series.
great comparison, thanks
Wow. I must say this is quite impressive. I sent you an email to purchase the plans. I live at a renfaire 5 months out of the year and this would be amazing to have as we have noise restrictions after 10pm. ❤
Thank you. I received your email and sent the info on how to purchase the plans and step-by-step instructions for the quiet box and exhaust system. Thanks for watching and have a great day! .... Usefulgizmos
This is an excellent installation. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for your kind comments. Thanks for watching and have a great day! .... Usefulgizmos
Or, buy a taller car.... or bigger tires.... or have a muffler shop raise that converter a bit... or just move to a different house... :)
Sure if you only weigh a buck five
Why spin the blade up ? Cut down avoid chips and kickback 😢
Thank you! Was planning to do something similar to expand a shed. Going from 10x10 to 10x20-22-24? with gambrel roof truss. Old shed has gable style with very little pitch. Will replace all the roof. Planned to use a wooden work bench that has casters, block up so no chance of sinking wheels, and attach "scaffolding" to framing to do roofing. Just realized, since doubt I can lift 4x8 sheets of OSB, why not cut it to 4x4 sheets? Was planning on at least 12 foot extension so would have been cutting some anyway.
