One thing you missed is how to make sure you don’t put the tool in backwards

Awesome I just subscribed and going to watch more vids thanks

Don't Google it lol 😆 😂

(6000) + (-6000) = 0. The primary is single phase. Even a capacitor in risk of becoming a bomb can only theoretically phase shift 90 degrees.

Yeah, I know the video is 11 years old. Camera peeps need to remember to keep the camera pointed at the subject, not the tech/Tom or the wall. Missed walking through the regulator-valve and front push activator.

Great stuff man. Thanks. First video of yours I've watched.

this is the complete wrong way to disassemble a robot

Could you drive one with a ballast? or would it arc over and kill the secondary before any meaningful voltage could be made?

I'm a girl.

What if you have the capacitors balanced on each side of the spark gap/primary coil? Better? Worse? Indifferent?

Weight

What if the nst starts to buzz very audibly?

Chris, I don't know why you got into NSTs, but I needed to know about them in that I have a small neon sign collection. Learned about GTO wire and wiring up and mounting the neon etc. Had a couple neon star lights (from a drive in theater) stop working and that is when I found you and how to test a high voltage transformer. I found the transformer to the stars had died and one of my extra transformers was also bad. Thanks for the clue on how to test these old monsters. Also, from your lesson on how to read the labels on the transformers, I see most of mine are from the 50's (Acme brand!). Jim

This is so valuable to me right now! Thank you so much. Family member passed away and has 4 of these things on mint condition wrapped in plastic, and I need to know what I’m looking at. Thank you for making this!

So I take it that IF they had a large chunk of steel that the contraption itself would heat up a bunch, and rather quickly, because of the eddy currents then? Not an electrician, just asking.

cant wait for the revisiting episode

So it's giraffatitan more or less agressive than brachiosaurus itself?

Thank god you mentioned watching defrag on Win98. I thought there was something wrong with me. 🤪

Great informative video, i started recording sounds as a teen 50 yrs ago i was lent two ferrographs it was brilliant fun sending sounds back and forth adding new sounds each time next 1979 same person took back ferographs but sold me teac A108 simulsync cassette deck, wow i wore it out but out came Tascam 144 now we are Rocking next tascam 244 next fostex reel to reel r8 trk it's now getting really interesting and like a Dream come true 1986 jump 38 yrs now i went digital with some very expensive equipment spending thousands but because i retired from going to work ive gone back over hundreds of recordings on many formats to 1980 listening to early cassette songs and it's like you've met your 1st love again , The Art of tape recording and all it entails what a love affair it was beautiful moments captured vintage synth sounds , ive had to buy back and fix a A108 244 a yamaha mtx8 Tascam 424 mk1 and others so to re live those mostly forgotten moments. But now i want to go back to recording the old way ! Thank you for your inspirational KZfaq videos ❤

Could the control over the tail tip be for a display structure?

I See one of the tricks might have been to remove the tape while the paint is still wet. No way you could have done that by yourself!! ha ha , what did you have, a dozen people helping here? Makes more sense now that I see this long form of your video

Really glad to see you have proper PPE. I spray painted a motorcycle frame today, and I slacked-off on the last 5 or 6 touch-up sprays , and didnt wear my mask, decided to just hold my breath and step out of the area . I intended to finish the 6 final sprays and go inside for the night. Well tonight I took a q-tip to my nostrils out of pure curiosity and was pretty horrified at what I saw. We really need to work to normalize eye, ear, lung and face protection. I see too many youtubers setting the wrong example (yourself excluded). This is only someting I've noticed in the older years of my life .... when I was younger I guess I thought I was invincible!! Anyway, thanks for sharing all your content and spending time doing cool things to share with others KEEP IT UP

IT would of nice if you told us the length and the Gage of wire. Regards Roger.

I feel like an abuse survivor after watching this guy lol. Seriously though doesn’t the higher voltage x-former push current through the secondary of the lower voltage one?

Great Explanation!

Not a jacobs ladder at all it was a teleporter or electrical generator and wireless transmitter

I love this video,but as an electrician that usually works with a group of mechatronics specialists,some of these made me cringe a bit😅

Arghh I followed your directions, and got electrocuted. Now I'm dead. Now what?

Just what I needed. I just bought a Panasonic RS 755S and needed some basics. I used Reel to Reel in late 70s for my Radio days and now Im getting back to my playing music on tape. I needed a reboot and this was great. I doubt Ill ever record anything, but I will definitely look for music (and maybe PSAs) to listen to. Thanks Chris, it was a very useful watch. Since this video wat 11 years ago, is there anything new or different?

Is it just the Fluke 189 model that has the "SUBSCRIBE" function in it as seen at time 6:05?🤣

My boom will not extend out with belly pack

Saw a bunch of tools, didn’t see much of the tool bag which is why I came.

its quite likely the claws were for both manipualting plant matter/dirt and for defence think of it like an anteaters claws, they are HUGE claws for an animal of its size, and they are used both for digging into ant/termite mounds, but also for slashing at any predator foolish enough to think it has a chance its not at all unreasonable to assume that as the animal evolved larger and larger claws for digging into trees or digging up roots, that it started to use these claws for defense as well and so lost its other forms of "defense" (such as running away) because with these huge claws it no longer needed them the idea of them being solely for defense makes little sense, as selection pressure would require the claws to come from somewhere first, if the animals predecesors used other methods of defence (again, like running away) it would have had no selection pressure for large claws, but if it was digging or breaking up food there would ahve been a pressure to get better at that, and so have bigger/sharper claws these bigger sharper claws which already had a selection pressure for gaining them, would then after the fact be used for defense and so in themselves be a selection pressure to lose the other (now unecesary) forms of defence so yeah, my money is it used the claws for digging up food, be it through actually digging or breaking apart trees or the like, and they just happened to be really good for defence as well

Thank you for your time dedicated to this instruction.

was fuer ein unfaehiges Personal, hat KUKA das verdient?

Spinosaurus is a lame dinosaur. The only reason it is so popular is because in Jurassic Park 3 the movie makers made him magically defeat the T-Rex.

Awesome presentation.

Thank you so very much for all the info and knowledge you are sharing. After playing bass for over 45 years, I am finally putting together my vintage recording studio complete with the Teac 3340s . I am new to recording, And you were making it all happen thank you so very much for sharing your knowledge

SAME about the pronounciation!

Thank you for the lesson

Controls Engineer here. Knippex (largest pliers down to the finest yellow set for PCBs). Swisstools screwdriverd (all insulated, we aren’t mechanics ☺️), Fluke detector and DMM for >=230VAC, Agilent for signals (doesn’t have the rating for working in a cabinet with high currents). I don’t use Wago at work but at home ofc. Electrical tape in all current colours. A small hex wrench set. Weller portable propane soldering iron. I use similar heat shrink like you do, mine is the one with the glue inside. Edding brilliant markers. Bosch laser measure. Grounding set for working on electronics out in the field. I used to do a lot of hot work. No manager wants his machine that‘s needed for a batch with xx million USD value shut off. Doesn’t matter what it is, if you shut it off you‘ll have a batch record with hundreds of warnings and alarms and notifications. That’s why my iPhone became one of the most important tools too as working on live circuits can‘t be done alone but only one guy was on call.. So then I usually got the manager of the line out of bed, told him what hat happened and asked to hold the line and send rescue services to room x in building y floor z. I am no friend of screwdrivers without 6kV rating, even my bloody cutter is rated for that. I have had to cut live circuits with it an here I am today. Non-insulated tools can easily fall into a cabinet and all hell will be released in case of a short (no more shaking hands after such an arc). Thanks to the clean rooms I have all my tools in at least three zones and our allowance is pretty good too. We get the tools we need, not the tools we want.

where my TET homies at

W5 MT3 is on the list now, though, I'm mainly doing low voltage right now so ill put it off a little

9 years old video

I just bought one. ☝️ 😊

The mighty toothy CROW!!!!!!

I just wanted to say that that is the cleanest cut that I have ever seen, especially through something like a transformer. Bravo! I did have one question that I didn’t know if you knew the answer to: the filament wire output? If you wanted to use that for something else, could it be used to power a small light as an indicator that they is still charge in the unit and left on to continuously drain until the power is gone?

I've got three 100mfd/20kv caps sitting in the basement....really scared to charge em up and let em rip.
