Sorry about this and thank you for the feedback, I will try to be better on future videos.

Glad you liked the project, it's well worth making if you are needing custom springs.

Glad you like the project, was thinking maybe I'll get a 3d printer and do a rev2.0 version, though I really do like them out of wood.

Thank you for the feedback, and I um uh agree. Thought about taking it down for this reason and will do better for any future video.

Glad you liked the project.

Glad you liked the project.

Glad you liked the video and interesting choice with arbutus/madrone, I'm betting that will have better coloring/grain patterns than oak I used.

I was able to find it from the sketchup warehouse by searching for "Table Saw Stop Block". After you do the search, at the top of the search page there is options tabs for what type of search you want. Please select the "Models" tab, after you select that the stop block model will show up. It's not the most user friendly search engine...

I'm glad you like this clip and video, makes it worth it to me to post videos. I've been thinking about placing items like this on ebay for sale as an experiment. But as of this time unfortunately haven't yet.

Glad you like the video. Been using these for a while now and am happy with the pros/cons of this design. Can definitely recommend making them to try out if you're looking for something lowest cost, easiest to make, and the most compact storage method.

Glad you like the video. This see saw was given as a gift a long time ago and they've already on the highest setting and almost out grown it. Time flies...however after it is outgrown then it might make a nice piece of yard art.

Glad you like the design. Eventually I'm hoping to make a part 2 video to incorporate some additional spring making features. However I still use this spring maker when I need a custom spring and am pleased with how it turned out. In my opinion it's definitely worth the time to make if you need custom springs.

Sorry for delay responding, I've been off youtube for a long time. Glad you like the coin slider video and design. To respond about your questions, when making this project I tried with and without the steel plate. The result was that the coins drop quite a bit slower with using the steel plate. I would recommend you do this same experiment with/without the steel plate to prove it to yourself. The reason why is because the steel plate acts like a conductor of magnetic energy forcing the energy upward towards the coins instead of allowing it downward where it's of no use. Far as determining magnet polarity, the way I did it is to add the first magnet to the start of the steel plate, then bring a second magnet near the first magnet (having it in the orientation as if you were going to add it to the steel plate). But before you add the second magnet, check if it attracts or repels to the first magnet (being careful not to have it attract to the steel plate). If the two magnets repel then add the second magnet to the steel plate in the orientation you're holding it. If they attract then flip the second magnet over so that it repels then add it to the steel plate. In other words, when magnets attract then you know they are opposite polarity and you want alternating opposite polarity facing upward. Then just repeat this process for more magnets. If you get it wrong it will be obvious when sliding a silver coin, it will go from slow to fast if orientation is wrong. Also the rare earth magnets are fragile so had to be be careful when determining orientation or adding to steel plate, I broke one or two accidentally allowing them to slam together. Point being I'd suggest ordering a couple more than you need for your project.

Glad you like the video.

Sorry for delay responding. I purchased 0.020", 0.037", and 0.051" diameter wire when making this project.

It's a good point that we must always weigh the pros/cons of storage options on what's most important. And glad you checked out the video. Not to throw rocks at the harbor freight ones but in my opinion those do have several cons i can think of, they take excessive amount of force to unlatch wrenches (maybe they've improved them since I seen them years ago), they quickly become way more expensive than DIY if you need a fair amount of clips I resell used USA tools and have made about 100 of these DIY clips so far harbor freight cost is a non-starter for me, they take up more tool box space, and are not customizable in size (ex arguably too big for tiny ignition wrench set or if you wanted to size the clip so it's exact size for your set).

@@True_Lou Harbor freight is great. But, even I would never buy half their things. Their Long wrenches is were I use the 2 clips. For my other wrenches I use 12 ga conduit coiled, it makes them very compact. I don’t expect their wrenches to be great. But I have put at least 250lbs (im 290 and had a cheaper bar) trying to take a crank pulley off. And it worked, but it could see it flexing and it got me nervous, lol.

Sorry for delay in responding, I haven't logged onto youtube in a long time. It's a very interesting idea about non circular springs. The first thought that comes to mind is to take a grinder to the threaded rod to form it into a rectangular shape yet maintaining some portion of the treads for use with the spring maker, kind of like a thread tapping tool looks. That said I'm not sure how rectangular or rather oval the spring will be.

Obrigado, que bom que gostou do vídeo.

Thank you and glad you liked the project.

@@True_Lou You’re welcome. I hope it made your day, or something to that avail.
