I too use my micrometer like that; works like a charm. 🤣🤣
Love this Penny Farthing contraption.
Very cool build and ride-around. I'm an American and have been forced to move by my neighbors several times for enjoying this version of "the pursuit of happiness".
Haha yes I am lucky to have good neighbours!
The fine thread on the machinists clamp allows it to to clamp extra tight. Good job! 😆
You come up with some interesting ideas, good fun video 👍
Haha thanks mate. Looking forward to seeing your next creation! Also could you find me on Facebook if you want I would like to ask you some flying machine questions , dkthewelder on Facebook
@@DktheWeldersent you a message 👍
Bro, i was having cones and the chicken safety joke almost killed me 😂
Haha !
I just love cones
No ways dude the machinist clamp 😂😂😂
Loving the tool humour :)
Haha I am just waiting for someone to think I am seriously doing that will be funny
The metric ones only work on metric bolts, i used a imperial one and it rounded it.
Powered Penny-farthing. Nice!
Awesome 👏
Your non stop, love your work.
Your funny as too, love the use of your mates special tool, wish I had some chickens too.
All the best mate 👍
You definitely made me laugh out loud with the clamp. Thanks for that!
Totally bonkers! Love it!
You already know how much I enjoy this 😂
I really liked your one ! Must have been so scary , mine is a lot closer to the ground
The mad scientist
Love your videos, this one was particularly hilarious!
Good job , I may have to make my own version
this guy is amazing
Awesome Vid Dk, I think you need to do some merch with chickens wearing safty glasses 😂
Damn that's really cool, with a bit of refining that could be something really cool that people would probably buy
It is really fun ! But maybe a bit too dangerous haha
"Borrowed this little clamp". 🤣🤣🤣
baha this is perfect, I think an off-road adventure is in order lol!!
Yes! I need to take it in a motorcross
Just bizarre mate. 😂 But bloody hilarious!
Awesome.
thumbs up for wrenching on your mates micrometer.
Hopefully he doesn’t see the video
I have to buy one of those clamp things. 👍
Yeh, a mate gave me one of those clamps and said it was good for measuring things to, but the thing I measured, it was no were big enough, so now I use to open my TUI quart bottles, works great!! My misses said it did not have to be down to the nearest millimetre, I said I've been an inch out before and you did not like that!!
Haha didn’t know you could measure with it
Cool wee bike, it would fit in the boot of the Comy
It would fit in there great , probably faster too 🤣
One of your best yet DK, on ya mate...
Thanks 👍
I'm glad you added the seat. I was gonna suggest a fender so that when your feet slip off the pegs your nuts don't get sucked between the forks and ripped off. I've read that those powered unicycles are a lot easier to ride because of the suspended foot platforms. It supposedly makes it easier to maintain your center of gravity just slightly in front of the axle. That and they have a gyroscope I believe. Imagine how much fun a portable dirtbike unicycle would be? You can throw a couple in the trunk or the back of a ute and go trail riding with a friend. I look forward to you mastering this
Yeah I saw a picture of one, I think a gyroscope would be good. The balance point of this is so small it is difficult to stay in it
Also I was going to make a guard so i don’t castrate myself haha
man that was super cool!!
Thanks Joel 👍
Honestly youtube has been getting boring but i really enjoyed these videos xD hahaha Cool inventions and Gyro batmobile is awesome ima watch the mini tank next!
Glad you like it! TH-cam does get boring there needs to be more people doing interesting builds I think
Love the 1 litre oil bottle petrol tank. 🤣
This is the most Australian thing I’ve seen in awhile.
Imagine how Australian it would have been if I was Australian haha, I’m from New Zealand 👍
@@DktheWelder ahhhhhh damn I’m sorry about that mate. I bet you get that from all the Americans.
Love the forward roll
what a beast of a bike you might start the next off road craze
Penny farthing mx racing would be great
I really want one!
It is seriously fun to ride
Love the subtle jokes
Thanks
I bet every guy who has tools, the mechanical type, went into a cold sweat when you used the micro as a clamp, I know I did, streuth, lol
I can imagine a few guys starting to cry as I did that haha
coolest shit iv ever seen
Daniel... I loved this one.. thanks for the laughs.. hahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa...................
Haha thanks glad you had a laugh 👍
O'no you didnt!!! hahah I love it!
Hahahaha he's stick welding with a tig torch😂😂😂it's genius 4:10
A lot of comments on it haha
Even out your body weight distribution...move the foot pegs forward and get most of your leg weight in front of the axle...then you'll be able to get rid of the trainer wheel...👍👍
I think the balance point it too small, kinda like doing a wheelie on a 450 is really easy but it is difficult on a kids bike . A gyroscope would be cool
That looks way to fun maybe a rear wheel break will be better
It would stop it flipping over so bad ! I’m thinking about making even lower geared and taking it for a ride in bush👍
@@DktheWelder loer geared use and rear break be a good start maby for a mk2 could try a 21" front wheel bolt sprocket to the rotor use a slightly larger rear wheel would be good off road
Are you using a Tig torch for welding with welding rods?? And if so can you explain how you do????
You can but a 2.5mm welding rod into a 2.4mm collet saves swapping leads all the time plus you get the high frequency start
You need some other lights dude... the flashing is giving me a headache ;)
What was the stick in the tig torch? never seen that before?
A 2.5 mm welding rod fits in the 2.4mm collet so you don’t have to swap leads and you get the high frequency start which is really good
Great Effort.....where the Pee Cam.......haha
Haha , I would put pee cam in ever video but some people would get sick of it
Bro just made an off road pennyfarthing
Please do a video on doing up that yhat
The sail boat? I have some videos of it, I will be taking it out in summer
haha cracker job bro needs some ape hangers n saddle bags hehe
Haha yes!
Sad to see that the Lorax scooter is not possible to ride
I must try that axe breaker bar method🤕
On really tight bolts I wear a hard hat
Is that MMA welding with a TIG torch?
Sure is , works great
Hahaha that mic bit painful laugh
I think that would hurt a lot of people!
Haven't laught like that in a while good s%=t bro
Haha cool thanks
This is more like a goonicycle.... 😂
the unitronk lol
Unitonk you mean
One loss death machine mate keep on dreaming them up 😂
I have too many dangerous ideas!
did he use a tig torch as an arc stinger
Yeah it saves swapping leads all the time plus you get the high frequency start which is great
@@DktheWelder does it destroy the gas lens or do you not have one
@@the3dprintingkid477 the diffuser? I don’t have one on this cup but no it doesn’t ruin them
@@DktheWelder thanks for the help i will give it a try btw i also live in nz
@@the3dprintingkid477 o cool where abouts?
Needs a gyro👌
I think a gyro would help
i want you to use an arduino and a balance sensor to help you balance xD
Not sure how I would hook that up to a gas motor
@@DktheWelder electric throttle and a servo to the carb... so the Arduino does the throttle based on your input but also adds or takes away throttle if you are beginning to lean to fast xD
i could help a little with programming if you need me to
@@NamacilHDx I know what you mean but I think the gas motor wouldn’t respond quickly enough and I have no idea about that stuff too, thanks for the offer to help I think it would maybe work on the brake too?
@@DktheWelder I think you are totally right about the engine being to sluggish and I thought about the breakes too but ... I think servo breakes would be harder because of the force needed... I think this whole idea would only be a help and still need some skill and lots of tuning to drive ... But if you think a computer can't do it because the engine is to sluggish, how did you expect a human to do it then ? XD
Do your neighbors ever complain about noise pollution?
Na I have really cool neighbours the watch what I am doing sometimes
@@DktheWelder that's great
UNSUBSCRIBE! The one time my wife happens to be watching over my shoulder is when the chickens make an appearance.... She keeps telling me to put our chickens in the videos and now says "I told you"!!!!!
Haha. I can’t help putting them in there they are way too friendly
Also where is your penny-farming? Can you ride that thing? I just been on your channel looking for it
@@DktheWelder one of ours is scratching at the concrete floor in my shed trying to make a nest!
@@DktheWelder Where is it? Right where I left it... It lost the vote with Pigeon for next in line.
