MACTREM Brand LED Ring Light Kit-Unboxing, Assembly, Use and Review; Par...



MACTREM Brand LED Ring Light Kit-Unboxing, Assembly and Review; Part# M-A001. This light assembly is super easy to put together and use. The light has many different levels of lighting as well as different types of light (i.e. white light, yellow light, etc.). This is all adjusted on a switch adjuster that is very user friendly. Great for pictures and videos. There are actually two assemblies with this kit. One for the light and one for your phone/camera. This kit comes with two versatile tripods so you can adjust both your camera and light at any angel you wish. Using the contents of this hit will fully enhance your filming and photography experience. It plugs into a USB which I demonstrate can be operated off of a lap top or a plug in the wall. This would also be a nice addition for the ladies who are doing their make up.

DIY Welding Project-Machete from Mower Blade Tutorial



This was a fun little welding fabrication project. I found myself with a stack of old steel thick lawnmower blades. I thought what a better idea than to make a homemade machete with them. I used full penetration weld joints. "V" groove joint design both side. I gouged out the opposite side until I got down to clean sound metal, then welded it up. The trick here was to watch my distortion. So rather than weld one side all the way out I welded each side just below flush and then put the covers on it. Once I welded it out I ground the welds so that they were ground flush and indistinguishable from the base metal. I then marked out a radius for the blade and then a cut out portion for the handle. I then used my hand held electric angle grinder with a cutting wheel to complete the cuts. I honed the blade with a flapper wheel. I then used some wrapped twine for a handle. This was the first of it's kind that I made.
