" System is brought to you by TV dot com. Hello Patrick Norton I'm David Randolph what insisted episode thirteen do something a little different this time. Got an email to my home account people actually like. Do. How -- Randolph build these projects. Where does he because they're candlelight he had you have a magnificent production facility you have like you know 3000 square feet of -- lights and machinery here. Most of us."
" No you kind of you are on this bench here on the floor in my living room. I have like -- whole -- my couch from just fronts in the slaughter in a way it's horrible."
" Soldering these holes in the -- can be bad and -- we bring this up right is is one of these I remember being what I circle itself when I was younger. Having -- to work on -- project is easy -- on a -- we have a -- to the big house you've -- projects room got rumpus room we've got the ability to. You know you've got -- lab space at school if you're save worst case scenario in it dorm room somebody's really uptight. Interest small apartment here in San Francisco with a white cat and dog and in other things. A -- a bed furniture. -- and things are getting really cramped especially the furniture is valuable matter of fact you may look at the dining room table that -- so big empty space only use in the occasional Sunday you know when grandma comes out. And we sit down with your Saturday on your project here's something like. Yeah so. Stay away from the valuable antiques. But what can actually one of my favorite things we've got a couple example be one of the easiest way to keep project together is the biggest problem usually isn't the space to do the project but having space to -- a few weeks to work on the project. You got the man apartments right I'm looking -- to have a garage. That sort of off limits of the rest of the family especially cats after that resistor incidents. But I've actually found I was going up I actually use baking -- don't think mom bigotry that -- baking tray. By just school by a four dollar baking tray from target or somewhere and you basically you get to really useful things once you get something that can hold a lot of -- To. The parts don't fall off in three basketball if you have to put the project away. You can just slide it under the bed."
" It just goes underneath there yeah I cannot tell you how many times I've actually physically lost you know components and -- the couch under the bed. I have these vents along the floor I swear there must be like fifty resisters and there -- now get -- seventy shag rug. And some really bad if you've got like a decent vacuum cleaner in the sound of a small knot or Apple resist or IC ICs can get like ever have one jamb completely -- the host no way out you have my mom didn't speak to me for we can figure that out. So you actually have a alternative. Yeah I I can go the other route I like the -- plastic serving trays. This you have for restaurants -- me a discount restaurant supply store also like buck fifty -- me. I think about these is that if you're gonna turn on a project it's not conduct this non conductor of."
" That's a good thing. Now electricity can hurt. You can pick and baking -- to work so often that -- to get fancy and -- I think everybody should have MySpace for a you know hardwood top. Pre wired couple two or three twin lines have an amazing what basically is it 800 dollar work bench and the reason I was ever able to buy -- because after the dot bomb here -- temperatures go. All these IT guys and spent thousands of dollars on benches were selling them like at the back there trucks for under 200 bucks right. So you know if you what do you little fancier give you something like this and we basically. Went to the local home supply shop we got an eight inch birch plywood and pure grade plywood. We've basically got -- up with some three quarter inch. Hardwood material he got a nice flat surface protects what's underneath it and again you know what you can pick it up slide -- under the -- to somewhere else. And you know you've got you really keep -- project together your parts in place protect what's underneath it or you know put another edge on it and put a post revenues of his friend."
" Connecticut now -- do is when I do this have to turn this. We're gonna have any here but two I like he's film canisters if you remember the old days of 35 millimeter. And I -- going through a project just label side of the film canisters 1234. Things you've taken together take it apart you know which screws when -- which layer of what electronic."
" That's a very good idea in a spokesman for that. Zip lock bags for razorbacks. Because they're really actually -- travel and I've got unity that your camera your camera charger you're after the you know remember sticking to it put all those in the big gallon bag it's all gonna -- all one point that I'm not dealing with a giant cluster of -- of -- of each other and let my anger gone through customs -- like that too which is smart it's useful. Now if you want to be a little more heavy duty right. We -- we're talking about that you always run Democrat on the web he's amazing like you know there's there's a tradition especially for what workers yes. Will be stabilized this little more later on and the idea. There's like the speed tradition cabinet makers -- you -- would build your work branch of these amazing you know eighteenth nineteenth century work benches that I have all these amazing can be tools for clamping a -- and and there amazing right and always seemed like easy instructions for work bench. It's always something that requires like Morse and his joints are like drilling 402 by fours and -- you know borrowing your neighbors you know whatever you call the thing that takes the top player would -- make -- what level think going to tell you you work bench to make it work bench exactly. So I actually got stumble across this recently it's gotta think about this is the family handyman organize your whole house is they had knocked down utility -- And it can basically get a song. And some glue. And a couple -- a three quarter inch plywood. You can do the work that's actually agreements will work but no thanks to me and -- miraculously uses might. Competed in apparently out of practice circular saw."
" And that'll certainly most slightly older than our cameramen was not it's very neck and neck neck and neck looked -- now. Can check. Although it is the circular saw make it shotgun -- seniority. Clinton made no -- there's it was announced there. The really nice thing about the instructions we found in the fabulous. Family handyman organize your whole house."
" Project page he knocked down utility table we're looking at is its its its own simple to put together you need. A couple feet at two by four. And she have to apply what but we basically did this in the one. 23. Major cuts and then the two. For cuts we did for the slots put together and then we cut the to buy for a short sections and -- a little last namely it's out of the slot. Which we didn't really do professional style. As basically like 23 quarter and slots you know in our case both eighteen inches -- together you you may or may not seen the thrilling and dramatic conclusion what. The cuts we made before we got an extra. Device to support -- would this -- cut it. We -- the board over your -- C -- atop the table is on the floor of the garage and we've laid out -- to -- ports are gonna be used to hold the table top onto the stand so you -- right now basically run through we've. Reuse them screws basically hold things together all the -- sets up I love gorilla -- it's a happy nasty substance that really makes things stick together or not come apart okay let's go upstairs. We have pleaded table here."
" That's that's pretty nice and compact as something that you know if you -- today. My don't actually disassembled and kind of stick it in the corner that's basically you know it's probably less than six inches -- we've put together. Amber actually putting together is pretty simple to take. Peace want to connect you'll see or senator slot there I'll hold this for ya its alright he's team after. Drops right in there. This nice little -- that we may be -- this -- three quarter it but it had a little bit wider than three quarters didn't lose a little -- the first time we put together so we gotta have spent some quality time adjusting things actually which has a bit odd gadgets. Your account this is the exciting part. Because we actually did that there's another 100% done. In the garage a little bit and upside down -- that's right it was -- when we left I'll riots. Why all social twist into it -- little twist to it got a big vertical but you know what we actually have a huge workspace. Where your stuff. Yes Wright stuff over here for step out of camera don't mind me."
" So we'll set that up."
" And how publicist now there's 36 and slides. Okay that's not too bad because if I actually had a -- highrise -- something like that which you going to be elevated and -- working anyway. Much to do it but I council can stand up and get around my work can move around -- to."
" Exactly if you want to reconsider he would normally you know. -- like your kitchen table you don't measure your favorite kitchen table in your house and make the size the lights on that just understand that you've got the the legs are -- sort of stick out which -- normally slated sharing -- they don't kind of slide up to the middle you really want to work on the edges more so actually which is not that we don't work -- right hand it's like probably on the front side. -- everything in building that's not bad. We had -- mass space trip planned to work when we're done we can claps to put it somewhere else and and actually went up pretty fast they're. And solid enough and solid enough to work to get our first small place yet and that he is ladies and gentlemen pretty much the -- Our work it would basically we've got betrays we've got our fancy trade we've got people they put tools Google book projects away and if you something a little more hardcore over the have a lot of space we've got the collapse of bull. Utility. Bench I veto it just about do it for this old -- system this old system -- way to go were they want to thank our sponsors for this show."
" TV GAV dot com IG EE VE. Dot com the rest look at YouTube for gaming videos nice so you show to the web site to sign up you post your gaming videos -- categories. And hey you know what like everybody sponsored the show one thing that could take an interest in just a favor check out their website and hopefully they'll keep health and us to keep paying the bills we keep bringing this to you and I'm litigation we if you -- to -- what's coming up next. I can't figure and all I'm gonna bring back in a little more technical and sensible. Low tech -- of the system then there's enough. I'm slow sometimes next episode we're gonna talk about actually the tools this -- one for -- to -- the tools you -- when -- these -- together. So cover this sort of geek tools 101. Right why go with this soldering iron versus that soldering iron with -- on meter exactly -- fluke waffled on meters costs so much and you know you know those have a things no white needed power supply almost basics it's any -- know just to get your kind of -- up and running and -- with a little sort of basic kit of stuff you're gonna need what they're working on a computer playing around with radios. Amber's gonna keep expanding it out so as you get more intense of an idea of what this man uses may he's amazing project he'd show up for you.
