    I'm sixteen years old, I'm from Australia, and I think you are one of the most fantastic content producers I've ever witnessed. The ingenuity that you show will never cease to amaze me. You have fans down here in Australia too, pocket83.

    The labor of jigs and time you put into this video is appreciated. Thanks for sharing it with us!

    • @pocket83
      @pocket83  9 ปีที่แล้ว +26

      Of course! Thanks Peter. I think the jigs save time in the long run. I made two of these puzzles, so lots of repetition. And that miter saw thing @ 6:16 was sweet. I still can't think of a better way to cut those things;)

    I like your videos and they show much individuality and genius. As [professional wood workers it is important to demonstrate safety and the importance of keeping it a constant practice in our shop. When I am asked about safety I sometimes respond that using power tools is like juggling, "beginners juggle tennis balls, professionals juggle chain saws". However this is definitely not an excuse to be careless. Keep up the good work and all of your fingers!!!!

    Thank you Pocket83 for a very nice and instructive video. I could follow most of the reasons for your calculations - I used to be a mechanical and chemical engineer, but your expertise in woodworking absolutely floored me. Figuring out on paper is 10 percent of this job - doing it with skill and precision is what really counts !!! That squishing the final product was uncalled for, and is a downer. But, your wood working skills are incomparable. Salute. Maybe, you should talk, once in a while - that would really help .... or else a lot of subtitles.

      Hehe. The 'pusher' _should_ be vaguely familiar. I'd recommend that push-stick to anyone. Thanks John.

    So inspired by this video I had to make one! (two actually)! Your fixturing was easy to use & make. The only thing I did differently was to cut the 20 degree angle into a wood strip and then use it as a stop surface to slide pieces against with saw blade in the "fence". Made angle cuts VERY consistent. THANKS AGAIN!

    • @pocket83
      @pocket83  6 ปีที่แล้ว

  • @Fawksthephoenix1
    @Fawksthephoenix1 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    I have thoroughly enjoyed the videos of yours I have watched. I just started watching tonight while on a random video spree! I find it so interesting that to solve a problem, instead of just looking for a pre-made solution, you make it yourself or try to puzzle it out. I'm not such a logic based person, and for the first time in my entire life I feel like perhaps logic and the way I go about solving problems are both equally valid ways for the mind to function. It seems like in your free time and for fun you create and solve puzzles or fix problems you are facing by making an actual physical thing. I always make stories or music in my free time and it's interesting to see what someone else does with theirs. I don't know. I'm sure your videos aren't meant to give someone a look into your entire psyche, but I feel like we have such different ways of thinking and it's really refreshing to see how someone goes about finding solutions to various problems and seeing what someone finds interesting to do for fun. Also, since I have no luck with hands on sort of work, seeing you use the power tools so precisely to make such interesting puzzles or gadgets is very impressive to me. That's all. I'm probably just overthinking everything right now as it is two in the morning, but I just wanted to let you know how great and different your videos are.

    • @pocket83
      @pocket83  9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Fawksthephoenix1 Glad you found some of these useful to watch! It is especially nice to know that I am getting people to question the way that they approach problems. I try to never solve the same problem the same way twice; it seems to me that the more solutions I have come to understand, the better chance I stand against a new problem ;)

    I love the flip cut technique! SAFETY ALERT, not a worry, due to the blade angle going out. Very little risk of pull back, and the fingers are far enough away. An experienced person would have no issues. An inexperienced one may be missing digits. Oh well, how else are they gunna learn?

    I haven't seen next video but number of bands is easy because the number of pentagon's is 12 and I noticed that no rubber bands went through pentagons so that means a side of a pentagon's is connected to another side of a different pentagon's through 2(I noticed) hexagons if there's 12 pentagon's and 5 sides on each which is 60 and a side is connected to another side (÷2) there were 30 rubber bands

    Hello Pocket83. Just finished making all the parts, waiting for elastics. Your jig ideas are great, my only problem was the chop saw jig because I used 1/2 inch birch ply, instead of soft wood, I had major blow out. I think I'll try using a jig on the band saw next time. This was a great learning project, and I love your videos.

    • @pocket83
      @pocket83  9 ปีที่แล้ว

      Did you have a zero-clearance setup? A jig like this assumes that the part can't go behind the blade after it is free. Also, a new blade is preferred, and go slow. And even more insurance: you could make a second "finger" that holds the piece to the back fence. A bandsaw will work for you, but it won't be as pretty. Good luck.

  • @gavincurtis
    @gavincurtis 9 ปีที่แล้ว

    Neat idea on the glue holder. Traditionally, I torture myself waiting for half empty bottle of glue to reach the tip. Not any more! After watching this, I wonder if there a niche market for high quality wooden molecule modeling kits? One could use hidden embedded neodymium magnets at the atomic bond locations. There is another guy who makes high end wooden cabinets for custom chemistry sets and can't make them fast enough. Woodworking is very therapeutic, especially when you have all ten fingers.

    • @pocket83
      @pocket83  9 ปีที่แล้ว

      You know, that has been suggested to me before, on a different project. Outside of organic chemistry, this model would have little value, because the only structure that it can demonstrate easily is the "bucky-ball" molecule. But the tetrahedral puzzle video I did awhile ago could very easily be adapted to suit such a purpose, so long as the bond angles were correctly determined, and the correct jigs were applied to construction. Here is a link to the puzzle I'm referring to:
      th-cam.com/video/Q4CnL7VdR8o/w-d-xo.html
      Anyhow, thanks. And I do think that you are correct; there is a market for such things, but I have little interest in production. Or having customers. Especially with my short attention span and lousy people skills ;)

  • @Bng210
    @Bng210 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thanks pocket83 for recommending and watching this, very satisfying, I hope that one day I will have all the right equipment to start learning wood work. I really enjoy watching and reading about it but just need to start investing in some proper tools. If you have any recommendations on where I can start, please let me know. Thank you again for a great video, your craftsman ship is very good! Not sure why there are so many haters leaving stupid comments on your video, I'd block them and delete them LOL! My theory is if you don't like someone that someone is doing simply don't watch it. I will keep watching your videos though as I feel I will gain some knowledge from them.

    • @pocket83
      @pocket83  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Thanks! Of course, the truncated icosahedron has been around forever. But the hex/pente tubes held by rubber-band tension design was mine. I thought about this for quite a long time, so I do count it as my invention. It's still not "mine" to keep, which is why I put it here; use it as you like, and I would just appreciate the mention when you pass the idea around.

    • @JensAndree
      @JensAndree 7 ปีที่แล้ว

      The origins of the icosahedron is a lot older than both you and me together so that I can't give you credit for - obviously (:p ) - but the design with rubber bands I will because I really liked your design! If you have more design ideas for geometrical shapes and forms then you've just got another subscriber!!!

      @SteveFrenchWoodNStuff 9 ปีที่แล้ว

      pocket83 2 hexagons between each pair of pentagons. I think I'd be able to assemble it. It sure does look awesome though. I know it's a 'soccer ball' but, is this your own design? The way you made it is very clever.

    • @pocket83
      @pocket83  9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Steve French It started off as kind of a gag (just holding a dome together with bands), but I kept thinking of ways to make improvements. I've created other dome concepts in the past, so it wasn't much of a leap. There are other similar things out there, I'm sure, but the cuts/rubber-band concept was entirely mine. I'm particularly proud of the way I routed the bands ;)
      The whole idea came about from my search to find a construction method that was adjustable for domes of various frequency (the amount of struts it has). Connect the centers of the hex and pent shapes to their vertices, and it generates triangles. The more triangles, the closer approximation to spherical. The intention was to be able to make this thing even bigger.
      Anyhow, the "building block medley" was a vestige of the pursuit; the tinker-toy hubs were created to build a PEX geodesic tent-fort for my niece and nephew.

    It physically hurt to see you crunch the shape in the end. This is beautiful.
