Normal to Hidden Door: DIY
In this video I take a standard interior door and make it disappear into a slat accent wall. I've seen some other impressive videos of people hiding doors this way, including the one that inspired me to do this project by @DesignCraftWorkshop (linked below). In his video though he custom makes both the door AND door frame, all with some fancy green and black tools, so I set out to find a way to achieve a similar result with far less skill (and if you thought I was referencing Ryobi tools, that’s very cute, you’re the target audience for this video)

Ultimate DIY Cat ‘Tree’
มุมมอง 34Kปีที่แล้ว
When was the last time you saw someone's cat tree and thought "wow, what a nice piece of furniture". In this video I try to change that by building a cat tree/tower (potato/potatoe) out of one large driftwood piece. I made some mistakes along the way and discovered what electric scissors were.

Checkout how I transform a wall in our nursery from plain-jane to trendy plant accent wall with just a couple hours and a staple gun.

DIY Car Rust Repair (no experience)
มุมมอง 1.6Kปีที่แล้ว
In this video I'll fix a rust spot on my old Audi S4 using a kit from 3M and paint from TouchUpDirect. There are definitely some things I could've done better, or will do different next time, but overall it turned out pretty good for having zero bodywork experience. Lesson learned- don’t be afraid to go out and try something new! Affiliate Links: Rust spot kit: amzn.to/43yacU3

    Can u answer...? Soo... Before entering the hole the air is cold but when it comes out from those small holes it gets hot so it doesn't makes smoke... ?

    • @AverageDadChannel
      @AverageDadChannel 16 วันที่ผ่านมา

      the air rising and coming out of the top holes pushes the smoke on the edge of the fire back toward the middle, where it is hot enough for it to burn away

    Great job, like the errors and corrections on the way. If there was nothing else on the wall it would be much better, unfortunately the outlets, grate and switch are an eye soar - no sense making an accent wall that has such discruptions. I would try to move the outlet and switch if possible and concele the grate if possible. Easier said than done, I know but in terms of hidden door it is brilliant.

    As a former single-family real estate valuations analyst, I don't believe this will make a material difference to the value of the home. However, I love the idea and the finished product! I would definitely do something like this. Now I just need to save up for a house for the next 20 years...

      This is something that does not add value from a feature perspective for your bank loan, but it adds value if it becomes something a future buyer wants.

    • @AverageDadChannel
      @AverageDadChannel 18 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Correct, meant more of changing the price someone would be willing to pay due to the emotional draw of the wall, poorly worded on my part.
