FINALLY! I can just grab my drill, some screws, some baking soda, a syringe, a D battery, and some gorilla glue to make a lighter that barely lights, and could potentially explode, instead of wasting 2 bucks on a new one!

That lighter "hack" is a really long walk for a short drink of water. 😂😂

I’m a handyman, thank god no one knows about the glass coke bottle trick! My business would go under!

I did use the duct tape backing on sand paper. That one I will give a thumbs up.

How many opened the video to just watch the lighter hack and now feel like being cheated 😒

The part that cracks me up is where he spends all that time to mod that sketchy lighter and then on the next object he uses a completely different lighter 🤣

I also noticed something, it’d make far more sense for your “handyman”, or contractor, to want you to know these. So they can charge you thousands of dollars to repair the explosion you created in your home.

Solutions for problems that don’t exist…yet I kept watching. 🤗

When I saw my handyman hook my refrigerator up to a pencil, at first I was skeptical, but then he referred me to this video and I've been assured that he's a professional after all.

As a handyman, I CANNOT BELIEVE YOU TOLD EVERYONE EXACTLY WHAT I DIDN'T WANT THEM TO KNOW!!!

My handyman would be so mad if I learned how to partially fix a lighter. Thank you!

I watched my grandfather in Pennsylvania cut tops off glass gallon jugs this way using kerosene & string. When the fire burned out, he tapped lightly around the string line with a small hammer. The top usually broke off clean. He put the body of the jug upside down over his rose bushes to protect them through the winter. I loved that ol’ guy!

I started doing the lighter hack... Noticed the electrical arcing in my drill... Used that to light my joint... Thanks for the tip.

You don't need to drill holes in wood to twist wire with a drill. You can just put the wire's directly into the chuck of the drill.

I was at home trying to watch this video when suddenly some handyman's kicked down my door and slammed my laptop shut. They told me they don't want me to know the forbidden secrets of the sacred order of the handyman's. I would like to watch this video but they threatened to come back and shut my laptop again. I'm afraid of the handyman's.

That's a great way to fry your usb adapter, Shorting the leads to make that soldering iron tip heat up requires a ton of current. Even on the lower power end, a soldering iron would require 20W to be dissipated. From a 5 volt usb supply that would mean 4 amps of current is required, when most usb adapters are rated between 1 and 3 amps. This is disregarding power losses throughout the length of the tip and contact resistances at the terminals.

Finally! I can stop paying a handyman to cut my Coke bottles in half.

I showed this video to my handyman and he started crying.

I am deeply moved by this video. Never before in my life i have seen such nonsense!

Cool tricks to make small jobs take longer!

As someone who has seen a lighter explode when chucked at the ground, that seems like an awfully dangerous project to do when you could just buy a refillable lighter.

Who are these handymen that don’t want us to know these secrets??? How can we punish them?? I suggest we make a lot of crazy Vic lighters to show them who’s the boss!

“We only have 5 seconds, MacGruber!” “Ok, hand me a pencil, that USB adapter …”

Boy oh boy, if my handyman found out I figured out how to make a soldering iron out of a pencil, piece of wire, and a usb connector…. He’d be soooooo pissed!

I'm reminded of advice by Father Guido Sarducci, who said you can make an emergency umbrella with a garbage bag, a hulahoop and a stick. "So if it's raining and you don't have an umbrella, but you do have, you know, a garbage bag, a hulahoop and a stick....".

A far simpler and easier way to twist wires is if you have a keyless chucked drill, put both, or as many as you need, into the Chuck, tighten it down, and spin! I used that all the time doing car stereo installs. No need to drill out a piece of wood. And if you’re able to drill out the wood, then you’ve clearly already got the drill. Try it!

Always wanted a rechargeable lighter... So I bought one!

Channels like this are made to hasten the distribution of Darwin awards. Keep it up. 👍

3:03 **Sitting in class** Cute girl: do you have a pencil I can borrow? This guy: it's complicated

The reason handymen don't want you to know this is because literally every 'Tips & Hacks' that was shown was just a really inefficient way to go about it

As a handyman, *I'M FURIOUS* that you know this.

If your handyman uses any of these 'hacks' he himself is a hack!

The lighter will build up pressure of both hydrogen and oxygen, turning it into a bomb if left on the battery for long enough.

“Great, I now know how to split a glass coke bottle” said no one ever

Now I know how to give my $1.69 lighter a second life. All I need is: $0.32 screws, $0.97 baking soda, $7.99 mini bench vise and $5.54 9v battery. p.s. I can borrow screwdriver from my friend or use dime because finger nails don't work

The duck tape and sand paper is a pretty good idea have to remember it

Take it from a 20 year experience handyman... ........if my lighter suddenly stops working, I simply just ask someone if I can use theres

That was certainly a way to solder... I'll stick with an actual soldering iron

Wow. He invented some type of iron for soldering. If only something was available on the market.

The definition of spending a minute to save a second

We actually need a simple trick that can be applied in real life scenario.

Thanks mate, my soldering iron works great:)

As a handyman myself I have never needed to rig up anything i just watched on a job site. Maybe if I start charging by the hour i could retire early by making my own tools on the job.

That pencil soldering iron was pretty cool

This guy has a lot of time and meth on his hands but still pretty cool what he comes up with😆😂

This is handyman john wick. He soldered using an effin pencil... AN EFFIN PENCIL!

A wall charger will never have enough amps to create the type of heat needed, pencil lead or anything....

😳 that's an awful lot of work for a disposable lighter

2:50 all that work and barely any flame

The soldering iron is a great idea!!! Just dial 9,and 1 in your phone and be ready for the last 1

As someone who's played with HHO generators and knows how explosive that gas is, I'm scared of the lighter 😐

That last one, the soldering iron, I've seen prison inmates do, minus the copper and the clamp.

The hydrogen lighter was lit.😄

This is so awesome!!! As a goldsmith this makes a terrific wax pen for grillz etc. Thankyou!!!!

yes, cause im sure my handyman doesnt want me to know how to cut a coke bottle in half

Damn those handymen's with their secret knowledge!

Best soldering iron ever😍

I've tried the last one five times before this video and none worked good enough but the lighter one really is like a lot of work for the little flame

This is the type handyman that's coming back and cutting all the Copper out if your new house at 230 am

You spend more money to refill that lighter with your inefficient "trick" that only works 1 time, than just buying a refillable one with a brutane can to refill it a dozen of times

The correct term is "Handymen". "Handyman's" is an indication of ownership, such as "the handyman's drill".

What is the liquid going into the lighter..... water?

So I can make a soldering iron out of a pencil and pretty much use that to make other contraptions. Interesting.

If there was an apocalypse where you couldn't just go out and buy lighters, I guess I can see where the lighter hack would come in handy. Now how do you diy a battery to make the lighter work? 😃

Love the soldering iron great idea but you must get the wires round the right way to make it work.😊

The comment section of this video is more valuable than the video itself.

My dad is a handyman and I asked him how he feels now everyone knows? He hasn't been able to get out of bed for the last fortnight.

Since I can't find a glass coke bottle to try the trick on, I'm thinking about using a full bottle of Crown Royal. 🤔 Then again on second thought...

Yo that pencil soldering iron is on some Tony Stark levels brah.

Soooooo many things in such short time!!!! *All* of them useful. Thank you!

That last one can't be real. No way a 5V usb can melt solder.

When I showed my handy man this he smashed my computer and ran off because he knew the jig was up.

Finally, I can now join the A Team and use my skills as a CV

10 quality points for this video. It's really rewarding for us.

You got every handyman here to California fuming with this video. They don't know what they're gonna do now that all these secrets are out. 😱😱

I think a dead short to make the soldering iron would kill that charger in 2 seconds.

Making HHO inside a plastic lighter could explode, DANGER!

I think smashing two rocks together would have been easier than the lighter hack.

Showed my handyman the soldering iron. He shouted "Who told you about this?!!". He was most upset.

The lighter is cool and all, but that gas is a mixture of both hydrogen and oxygen so it could potentially blow up in your hand.

I have a very nice soldering iron , thanks anyway

The soldering iron was amazing! I didn't suspect at all that's where you were going with all that, I may actually try that one myself! Thanks!!!

Other than cutting the glass bottle This is more like a video of how people do things that don't have the proper tools but are creative AF 🤣😂🤣

You made me jobless as handyman !!!

No way a usb connection could power a soldering iron as the volts are 5 and the amps are a measly one or two.

I cant tell you how many times I've tried the bottle string thing and never got it to work one time

Now I can toss out my pencil soldering irons and make one out of a pencil. Genius, never would thought of that.. Also can use pencil lead for cutting metal but I would have to make a video to show how it's done..

Wonderful! There are so many ideas, and they're all realized. A new discovery!

You got to be careful I think with that lighter you're actually creating hydrogen it could explode in your hand.

Thanks for showing me why I'd rather buy this thing! Thumps up!

Ok I get what you did with the lighter! You made an cathode and an electrode , and by putting the 9 volt battery on it you made hydrogen and oxygen! Very nice! That sir was snazzy!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

During the war, my late father made drinking vessels in a similar manner. He was in Italy doing his bit for the world elite (satire) and they had none so they filled a bottle to the desired size with oil, and then stuck a red-hot poker inside. As it hit the oil - BANG - the glass was created. After a good washout (obviously) it was fit for use immediately as the break was so clean.

Perfect for that moment when you need half of a coke bottle... for some reason.

Super, wie immer einfach genial. Thanks

Wow thats alot of work for a $2 lighter, perfer to drop in the $1 shop and grab 5 for $8 lol🙂 Thank you for sharing..Great chanell..Greeting from Oz

That lighter 'tip' had me laughing SO HARD... Sorry, can't type, still laughing. SO ABSURD.

Wonderful Thanks👍

Assalamu Alaikum. I am a student of EEE department. I🧡 have watched all the videos from your youtube channel and I am waiting for new videos every day. ❣️ I like the videos a lot. Love is endless from Bangladesh. 🇧🇩

I'm a handy man and I want you to be as handy and self sufficient as possible. If you don't we are doomed as a society.

ok but you could just buy like 4 new lighters for the cost of one battery
