The Amazon shredder seems a little faster. That can make a difference when the feds are knocking on the door.
That's the kind of insight I look for when buying a shredder :D
we should go comment that on the amazon listing
Shredding paper doesn't stop the feds. They will put it together piece by piece. Burning documents are the only way to get rid of the information
@@ryant1626 that’s why you keep some Amazon basics spray paint next to your shredder at all times homie! Spray that sh*t all over before and as it’s goin in then ur all good🤙
Lmao *cough* *cough* looking at you Nixon
So what I have learned today: There are battery powered staplers?! Genuinely surprised by that. You don't get that satisfying mildly aggressive thwack.
Literally the first time is seen one i was like “WTF WAS THAT” 😂😂
And less sheets to, I can get up to 100 on my heavy duty stapler
Never seen one until now either
heres a mind blower. Some photocopiers can staple automatically as well.
and the japanese make staple less staplers. also on amazon.
I never expected to be watching someone reviewing staplers on TH-cam, but here I am watching you and enjoying every moment as usual!
Well said! Same here.
I could watch this guy watch paint dry
Was thinking the exact same thing
Same
Welcome!!
The glee on Tyler's face as he watched the credit card pieces shoot across the room brought a little sliver of happiness into my night 😊
When I saw him insert 25 sheets into that stapler I was on the edge of my seat. Had no idea it could get more suspenseful. Then he said he was gonna add 3 more! I almost passed out. Absolutely top notch TH-cam content!
Edit: OH fawkkkk he added more.
did you die?
XD
Absolute mad lad.
Heart-pounding action!
Try and get out more lol 😆 😂
as far as the blue tape, sometimes stickier doesnt equal better, super sticky tape can pull paint off of trim pieces
The tape yest was definitely invalid due to using plywood. For sure needs to be a completely flat surface to see any results that matter.
Came to the comments for this.
I concur
Exactly
Even as he's pointing at the bad spots you can see where they are lower spots in the wood that seeped in under the tape because they were very clearly dents. It's like trying to use a drain cover on cobblestone.
Should have used scrap drywall
As far as the shredders Intertek is a quality assurance testing facility. So these could vary well be different manufacturers that were tested both by Intertek and the numbers that are also on the label are the specs that the shredders are assured against. I know this because I used to work for Intertek right out of college. Love your content!
When you get down to smaller pieces. You have no opposing force holding the screw/hanger in place. That why they turn away from the cutting edges.
That's me trimming off stragglers when cutting holes in plenums
I’m really surprised Tyler didn’t realise this😅basic physics
for someone like myself that knows little to nothing about hardware and considering he reviews so much stuff including hardware, I was baffled he didn't even know that it's pretty unfeasible to cut such a small nail and questioned the AB product
@@SkinnyFG yeah sometime he makes me wonder.. At the same time that's part of his charm..
@@buckiesmalls I like the guy but he certainly comes across as an airhead at least once every video lol
I was gonna buy your merch, but I ended up going with the Amazon basics version
LOL
The noise the Amazon shredder makes at the end will make me go for the branded version
Sounds like a vacuum
The type of stapler is very important. At my work they switched from the Swingline to the Boston stapler, but I kept my Swingline stapler because it didn't bind up as much as the Boston, and I kept the staples for the Swingline. If they take my stapler again then I'll set the building on fire.
I have the retro red swingline stapler and I love it .
We've found a glitch in the payroll. But we have fixed the glitch.
Mmm.... yeah... i'm going to need you to go ahead and come in on Saturday.
Tyler having way too much fun shredding the credit cards without the bin on it.
Love that you're doing longer videos I'm always pumped to see when you upload and the topic is killer. Thanks so much for the great content you provide and I'm glad to see your subcount go up!
i find so much comfort from watching this dude, he deserves to go far
For a shredder, I think the duty cycle is more important than the number of pages. I know that that's what caused you a problem when doing more sheets. As it heated up, it got weaker. That's fairly normal, and treating the shredders like you did is likely to kill them.
Needing to do a max of 10-12 pages is annoying. Needing to use the shredder for 5 minutes & then wait another 5 for it to cool down is much worse. At least, it is in my experience.
Paint tip. Put tape on, then paint over it with the stripes color(white), and then after it dries, it will seal it and then do the black. It will give you a crisp line.
This is the most useful comment! You absolutely do learn something new everyday. Been using painter's tape all my life and don't know why I never thought of this and it makes perfect sense!
Came to the comments to say this. 👍
I love your plywood art piece! Beautiful balance of texture and tone; the looming gradient of the middle contrasts with the firmness of the edges that souround it, truly inspiring work 👏
The look on Tylers face when Amazon Basics products hold their own is priceless.
In the case of the bolt cutters, Workpro is owned by Great Star tools, a Chinese tool manufacturing giant that makes many of the "house brand" tools available in U.S. stores, so they very likely are indeed made in the same factory.
You’ve nailed it! Riveting content! I was glued to my seat! Your reviews are a staple in our household!
In all seriousness, I’m happy to watch you review these types of things so I don’t have to. 👍
Tyler!
We need to have a “5 things left in a jar of Muriatic Acid for 30 days” video.
Pleaaaaase!
This!!!
Joined this channel for things left in jars.... Now we're here watching product reviews..... Bro....
Tyler: "15 sheets"
The shredders: "Tyler, why!?"
Its incredibly interesting to see how well the amazon basics items held up and even surpassed the name brand products and just goes to show that I didn't even watch the video because it was just posted 2 minutes ago
😭🤣
So for the side cutter testing when it wouldn't cut through the nail towards the head. This is because they harden the heads of a lot of nails so they a less likely to bend or misshape. Pretty sure that's what was happening there.
I’ve had a rough time the past couple weeks and you’re reactions to the shredders made me genuinely laugh for the first time in a long time and I can’t thank you enough for that…on a side not should’ve done like a piece of cardboard and a piece of paper at the same time and go up in the amounts of paper up to its limit…
FYI, a lot of locations around the United States will collect paper and cardboard if it is kept unshredded in recycling, but many will not recycle shredded paper. They will only throw shredded paper in the garbage and not recycle it. So it is best for the planet to only shred important documents and not every paper you have.
At what point can we call tyler scientist? he is one of the brightest minds earth has ever seen,when he doesnt do something really stupid.
Many brilliant minds were also very stupid
@@ChickenYale Yikes
BETTER "SCIENTIST" THAN FAUCI AND THE OTHER DEMONRATS AND VACINE PUSHERS!!
When does he ever not do something stupid?
Workpro isn't exactly a "name brand" tool. They are cheapos like harbor freight. Test a pair of knipex 7101200 mini bolt cutters. They run about $60.
Yep ive got all knippex or better. way better than shitty worx. Worx probably make amazins
Anything less than 10 bucks apart are going to be roughly the same quality
@@tristanswain7107 like a pack of cigarettes and a gram of cocaine both priced at 10 American dollars?
I have a workpro multitool from aliexpress, its just some generic chinese shit
Workpro also makes Jorgenson clamps and a bunch of other brands too. I've got some Amazon Basics face clamps and they work pretty great, can't really complain about
The wood grain being deep like that in the wood was a poor choice to test. The tape technically did not fail, due to paint leaking under the tape from the deep grain. Smooth surface is a better controll test for that.
Another long upload! Love too see it, as well as more comparisons!
Can you imagine the combo of bob Ross’s hair with Tyler’s beard- absolutely epic
I work in an office and it wasn't until right now I found out there was such a thing as an electric stapler.
Didnt know that as well...at the same time, dont really see the need for it! 🤣🤣
When he said those staplers were $34 and $41 I couldn't believe it, then I realised they were ELECTRIC!? I've never even seen an electric stapler in all my 34 years and I even worked in a Staples shop for like 5 years.
There was one in the library at my highschool
The issue with the cutters was due to you not holding the nail. When you were holding it you prevented it from shifting with the downward motion. If there was something holding the nail like a board it would have cut just fine. I have these cutters and use them all the time. I have the Amazon one
Do Amazon basics electronics or smart devices which is better and durable for people that throw them as morning alarms
Bruh I swear to God Tyler you are such a man child and I am absolutely jelouse 😂😂 like the stuff you do in your vids never fails to entertain me and just seeing you get all giddy and happy from such miniscule things is just great lol keep up the great work with whatever you wanna do
Bypassing the safety and shooting credit card pieces everywhere while grinning maniacally - total Tyler!
Awesome, keep up the good, honest work you do Tyler.
at the nail thing it doesn't cut through because you are not holding the nail straight anymore, so it probably gets shifted while cutting
I didn’t even know electric staplers existed
Tyler Ggs on 700k subs man I’ll always be with you (:
I work for a company called Western forge in Colorado springs, we made hand tools for Craftsman husky proto and snap-on, with the same machines under the same roof it's all the same different steels maybe but all the same
I mean when there was a toilet paper shortage, Amazon was a saving grace.
I had no idea battery powered staplers existed... like.. I figured they would, I guess? For maybe thicker sheets or industrial settings.
But for regular staplers? I figured the standard press-staplers were the perfect ones
Nothing to do with size, it's about avoiding cramping or RSI when you're stapling a thousand pages in a day
@@Xathian fair enough, thanks
35:53 such beautiful artwork that should be in a museum
This should be a series
can someone explain to me why a stapler needs to be battery powered?
laziness
Perceived effeciency in an office setting
america moment
really expected the amaazon basics stuff to be worse, weird to see that in some cases they could be a bit better actually for about the same price or even cheaper
Watching the paper come out on the other side of the shredder is an ASMR vibe I didn't know I needed.
1:07 wait.. Energy drinks? Can you leave stuff inside a jar with that? 🤔🤣
Always be weary when representing energy drinks. Hopefully it is good. Nice video btw.
Thank you very much for this video, Tyler. You've answered a question I've had for a long time - are Amazon Basic products as good as the name brand ones? Now I know that, in many cases, they are.
Please do not buy amazon basics and support the monopolistic tactics of a corrupt company just to save a few dollars.
@@portal1218 Spoken like a person who doesn't need to worry about each dollar spent 🙄
@@munkustrap2 I guess you can take it that way if you so choose. But I I actually do need to worry about each dollar spent. I just won't support a corrupt company anymore than I have to for a few dollars savings. If the savings were $100+ to go with Amazon Basics then yes I would use them. But if the savings were a few dollars then I avoid Amazon Basics.
All that being said, if I don't have the money for something, I won't buy it immediately unless it's something that is essential for my day to day living. In which case I would use me emergency credit card and pay it back slowly over time at a rate I can actually afford.
@@munkustrap2 I can see where you are coming from as far as in saving money, however if everyone thought that way, we would no longer have small local shops that are mom and pop ran and owned. Walmart has done a wonderful job of proving that as well. I mean if the local store is selling Amazon products, I could understand not shopping there 😅 that's like a local selling Great Value! However, 9/10 shop local! Support small business, not Jeff Bezos.
the amazon basics shredder seems to have a war cry after it shreds something like "MOOOOOOORE"
Tyler grew up and is living our dreams, even though I had no idea my dreams were to test stationary products
There is no brand loyalty in business anymore
To be fair, that's mostly because brands get bought and sold all the time now. The brand you loved from 5 years ago may very well be made by a completely different company now with wholly different standards.
Its been found that Amazon often sees items/products that work and will copy the item and make an Amazon version of it at a cheaper price. Additionally, Amazon will rate the Amazon product as it's choice obviously. Messed up but we're in a capitalist country so...thems the breaks i guess.
I am thinking of starting a new band called The Slimline Stapling Experience. Thanks Tyler!
try setting the painters tape with a damp cloth prior to painting, they say it sets the edge to get rid of the bleeding through. after you use the damp cloth take a dry cloth over the top, you are also making sure it is making a good connection with surface.

My crypto mentor Mr Michael Wayne , you may have come across him on a few interviews I invested $3000 last two weeks and it profited me $11,410 a higher success.
Bruce Wayne shiiet
@Anne Laurila please 🙏 tell me how i can contact Mr Michael Wayne I've lost alot of money trying to trade on my own😭
@Anne Laurila Thank you for this. I just looked him up on google and impressed with the information I came across. Will definitely reach out to him. Thanks again 😊😊
I also trade with Mr Michael Wayne , and i must say he makes money making seem a whole lot easier right now I'm a single parent and i pay the bills comfortably since i met micheal wayne he's absolutely amazing and I'd recommend him for any novice in crypto.
never in my life thought i'd be watching a grown man test staplers in his garage at 7 in the morning
Tyler suprises everytime, love your content
Tyler will cut things that end up flying without safety glasses, but he looks terrified when the paper shredders are almost failing XD
Really like the review videos bro thanks!
LOL! I love how giddy you get with the credit cards shooting out!! 🤣🤣
This man always be getting my views at 2:30 in the morning. Always him and the Indian dude making pools in the woods
Your intro was enough for a thumbs up, car person here:) I love these vids Tyler.
6:30 woahhhh my fav youtuber using an object i love
Yes! Longer vids this will be great
i honestly stopped watching you for 5 or 6 months until you popped up in a dream of mine, now i feel obligated for sending the content directly to my brain
You should test various types of wood like hardwood, softwood, HDF, MDF, LDF, and plywood to see their strength, durability, water resistance, fire resistance, etc
The reactions with the shredders made me giggle every time
i think you should try out the “jam proof” shredder on amazon i think it would make a good vid btw love your channel
A lot of times when an item looks exactly the same as the name brand they are made in the same factory but the difference comes down to a multitude of things such as fit and finish and quality of materials used. On metal items I would suspect that cheaper metal is used or a different blend causing them to be softer and wear out faster. But that's something that would be known over you know a long time.
All decorators tape seems to react to the water in the paint and make it gooey on its tape . To stop the bleeding use a roller as this helps stick the paint down. And the reason why the spray paint bled more is because it has to be thinned enough so it can spray through the nozzle of the spray can . The fluidity / viscosity is different
The look on his face when it first ate the cardboard was priceless
You had way too much fun with those paper shredders lol
The "my god what have I done" face for the paper shredders
I love how the amazon shredder does that little victory screech after it's done shredding something tough lmfao
If that's a piece of plywood, the overspray that you're seeing is the divots in the wood itself allowing the paint to go actually underneath the tape. It works best with drywall for something that doesn't have a lot of texture to it to allow the material to go underneath the sides of the tape.
The tape one made an amazing piece of art! Like I'd hang that in my house !
I let your older videos play in the background on my phone when I'm doing stuff on my tablet and my kittens love watching your videos.
Tyler- “I’d never think in a million years I’d be reviewing staplers on the internet.”
Me- I’d never think in a million years I’d ever see an electronic stapler. 😂
You should try a neck tie in the paper shredders. There's always safety warnings about getting your tie caught in the shredder
Tyler, the reason the nail doesn't cut at the very end is because it has nothing stabilizing it as when you were holding it with your hand before. Right before you make the last cut, you let go of it which then there's nothing to hold the nail while cutting... Then it twists/shifts and doesn't cut.
Every time the Amazon Stapler held onto paper, I made growling dog noises, like you were playing tug-if-war.
XD
Oh man you got me I thought my phone wasn't working and you started talking LMAO
Thanks for making this great video. 🙂
In case you need some painter's tape for a home project, I've tried all the types I could find (here in Australia). The best I found is called Frog Tape. It sticks absolutely flat, with sharp edges. It's expensive, but it works perfectly.
I love the look he gives when watching the paper shredders.
I think it'd be really cool if you did a video on electric ratchets. Mainly comparing them to an air ratchet (if you have an air compressor that is) or you could also compare a few different types of electric ratchets.
Had the *big* Amazon Basics shredder. The one for cardboard. Died after the first use (or more accurately, the fill sensor got stuck, so it's broken because they don't offer parts to replace/repair it).
With the cutters and the drywall nails, when you got down to the end of the nails, you didn't have enough room left to hold the nail while cutting. Since you weren't holding the nails, they turned when you tried to cut them that's why they didn't cut all the way through.
$54 shredder is not what comes to mind with "name brand" shredders
Project farm should do some macro shots of the cutters jaws to see if they're the same quality and hardness
And the nail wouldn't cut when it wasn't supported by your fingers. It has torque applied from each cutting edge making it spin and widen the gap between edges
Not only did you not expect to be reviewing staplers I didn’t not expect to enjoy someone reviewing staplers
Damn if this ain't the best test review on products I've ever seen
The stapler review is probably the best thing you've done yet
More tool comparison/test videos plz!!
they didn't cut through on the dry wall nails because you weren't holding it like you held the rest, so it tends to bend when there isn't a support system in place (your hand)
