PERFECTLY sharp knifes! 3D PRINTED sharpening tool
3D print yourself a tool to perfectly sharpen your knifes! 3 years ago my first intention with this channel was to make tech and science content but also geeky cooking videos. Well, due to time constraints I ended up only doing the first besides some sous vide cooking on live streams. In order to go back to the roots at least a little, we’ll today explore my most popular Thingiverse model, the DIY knife sharpening tool for perfectly sharp blades.

Apollo DSKY Computer Simulated with Arduino Uno and Touchscreen
To celebrate the 50th anniversary of the Apollo 11’s landing, hacker Mark Wilson decided to create his own DSKY computer replica using an Arduino Uno and 240×320 LCD display. While Wilson is quick to note that it’s not a faithful representation of the Apollo Display and Keyboard module, or DKSY, it at least gives users a feel for the machine and even acts as a clock when you’re not pretending to travel through space.
A Surprisingly Affordable 2000 Watt Induction Heater for Your Workshop
An induction heater is a multiuse tool that can be used to heat metallic objects quickly and locally. It relies on induction, in which a coil can induce eddy currents within conductive material that is placed inside of the coil. This requires a very quickly-oscillating alternating current in order to induce the eddy currents that heat the metal. Induction heaters have many practical industrial applications, and they can also come in handy for hobbyists who don’t want to work with open flames or other heat sources. If you have a need for one, you can follow DIY KING 00’s tutorial to build your own affordable 2000 watt induction heater.
“Muscle Wire” – Whats that?
MigaOne is a unique electric actuator based on Shape Memory Alloy (SMA) wire, also known as muscle wire.
Listening to Astronauts ON THE ISS with a Baofeng UV-5R
In this video I unbox a Baofeng UV-5R radio and demonstrate how to configure it to receive the narrowband FM signal that the ISS (International Space Station) transmits for Voice, APRS and SSTV signals.
“Meta Clock” Combines the Digital and Analog to Create Kinetic Art
Humans have come up with a lot of ways to display the time over the centuries that we’ve been bothering to do so. In the late ‘70s and early ‘80s, digital LCD clocks and wristwatches were all the rage as people got excited about the cool new technology. These days, analog clocks are seen as classier than their digital counterparts. It’s also possible to mesh the two together into kinetic works of art. That’s what Erich Styger has achieved with his Meta Clock that is made of 24 individual analog clocks.
How to use a Seedbox with Sonarr Radarr and your Media Server
This video shows how to integrate a torrent seedbox with your media server. It shows how to setup the seed box then use it with a combination of sonarr, radarr and syncthing. In this video setup is on an Unraid server but this can be done on any system using the 3 above applications.
