One of my favorite things about your channel is that you don’t edit out ALL of the missteps and mistakes. I’m a software engineer and a hobbyist maker myself and it’s so validating to see someone else make mistakes. We all do. However some people prefer to edit those out to appear more perfect than they actually are. Failure is ALWAYS and option.

Suggestion: Turn the chip/dip tubs 90° so they're not stretched out so far away from your hand. Then swap the dip and chips around so the lighter of the two is further out. This will place all the weight closer to the pivot make it so the leverage won't cause so much rubbing between the plates. Also, you could rout recesses in the bottom of the snack caddy instead and get rid of the top and end plate entirely. Then you would make the whole contraption lighter AND possibly eliminate the need for a counterweight on the bottom.

@RelyksLegacy Жыл бұрын

On top of all of that, instead of the Popsicle stick, a waxed plastic piece would work wonders as a failsafe I'm pretty sure. Not too sure why they thought of the 3d printed washer for less friction but still put a wood piece on the bottom.

And make the top plate thinner, a 1/4" rather than the 1/2" they ended up with. In the original, it looks like he used 3/8" plywood for everything, which would be light and stiff.

@qutlicopatlixhotutti6552 Жыл бұрын

The "play" in the bearing blocks isn't a error. Its so you can compensate for error. Normally you would always use two of these bearing blocks to mount a shaft. next time just use one thrust bearing and sandwich it between two plates. You also dont need two bearings, one bearing in one piece and just a fixed bolt in the other would have worked fine.

As others mentioned a thrust bearing would help the swivel action a bunch. Also I wonder if you could eliminate the upper portion of the chip and salsa holder. Add a gusset to support the weight of the chips and salsa on the lower board. The weight of the chips and salsa would act as the counter weight.

@Billybob09871 Жыл бұрын

You only need the bearing on one side. The bolt on the handle side can be fixed rigid coming out like a stud. Then both of the pillow bearings fitted to the chip side. One either side of the wood. That will give more strength to the pivoting mechanism. If you look at the original video there is no contact between the two pieces other than the bolt. No contact, no friction. You also shouldn't have used the thick wood on the unsupported end as that's just unnecessary ballast, a thin dowel would have be adequate.

Angle the wood underneath the bearing on either side away from each other so only the bearing area is touching. That would illuminate the rubbing and give room for the play.

You probably could make the small one work with one addition. Cut a slot 2" below the pivot point, where you can mount a bearing horizontally. The bearing just needs to protrude maybe an 1/8". Just enough so when the loaded snack tray flexes the unit, it hits the bearing instead of the other piece of wood. Now it can roll along the outside of the bearing instead of binding.

The square carbide tool is for roughing. Basically turning the square wood round/knocking the corners off. The round carbide makes curves (beads and coves) easier and will leave you a better--albeit not great--finish cut. At the end of the day all carbides work by scraping the wood and leads to more tear-out, especially on end grain. Gouges and skews leave a better finish because they can slice or peel the wood grain without tearing.

@ThisRandomGuyYouDidntNotice Жыл бұрын

might not be the original design, but you could rout a slot at the bottom of the beer part, bore a hole from the bottom and screw in another bearing. I mean orthogonal to the first one, so the chips part rides on a bearing. if that doesn't cancel out the friction problem idk what will xD

If you added two inlaid, Teflon rings opposite each other, it may alleviate the rub when the weight is added. The food going on top is countering the weight on the bottom and compounding the pinch. Teflon rings would be easy to manage and slow to wear out.

@patrickdix772 Жыл бұрын

A couple of thoughts, you probably only needed 1 bearing to allow the parts to turn, which would reduce the play since the side without a bearing would be able to be locked to stay at 90 degrees. Second is if you put something like a low friction furniture glide below the axle. That would help the wood parts not bind up if the axle gets out of alignment. Last thing is the thing mentioned already, by switching the salsa and chips locations.

Maybe some kind of Teflon coating on the surfaces that have to move might help. Also the bearing being at the top means that the weight of the dip pushed the bottom edges against each other. So perhaps making the gap the same as the width of the bearing and something like Teflon on the surfaces so there's no friction at the bottom.

The dip is probably heavier than the chips; and it's the weight 'at a distance' that's causing the bottom of the ... contraption? ... to bind. So if you switched the positions of the dip and chips, so that the dip is closer to the pivot point, that will make a difference. Wether it makes enough of a difference depends on too many factors to calculate, but should be an easy thing to test?

@darrinlindsey Жыл бұрын

What about counter sinking something that works like a fidget spinner, on the side with the drink holder, so it's reveal is just enough for the bearings to ride against the chip holder side. Then, maybe some type of tension connection to hold it together. Is there something (like a turnbuckle) but smaller, that will allow a stainless steel cord to spin freely inside of it?

A bit old, yet my biggest suggestion is for your new larger one, since it's so heavy I strongly suggest a counter weight on the side of the arm to help balance it and reduce hand and wrist fatigue. My second suggestion if you want to be a bit fancier, in your new large one again have a circular rotating bit for the drinks to rest in that you can lock with a little spring loaded thumb thing that you can push to unlock the rotating lazy-susan type thing then rotate your fresh drink toward you instead of having to swap them.

You should have switched the dip and the chips positions so the weight of the dip minimizes the friction between the two sides. Also underneath the bearings you could have cut in a smiley face channel on each side for the use of 1/8” steel or ceramic balls to reduce friction.

Not sure if anyone pointed this out yet but in the original build you can see the top is canted off from the bottom when the holder sits on a table, but when he lifts it the holder has a pretty even gap. Seems like he put the hole at an angle or has the dip holder slightly higher than the beer holder to create an artificial gap and to remove the pinching issue you are having. Or maybe just a larger gap than one would expect.
