Are the things on the bottom bags of [whatever] that just happen to really look like models/die casts of 60s-80s sedans?

Bags of some granular household product, yeah. The bit that looks like a car in profile is the white top of the bag + the plastic carry handle. e: after some searching it looks like water softener. Those of you who read other GBS threads may recognize the company's logo! Jabor fucked around with this message at 09:06 on Nov 17, 2019 |

Pissed Ape Sexist posted:There's a couple reasons. Old table saws are dangerous because of (well, partially) where the board can sometimes pinch between the fence and the blade if you're not careful. This will make the blade 'grab' the board and fling it backwards toward the user very, very quickly, and sometimes bring the user's fingers along for the trip through the path of the blade. This is a table saw but flipped 90 degrees-- you're sawing horizontally, so that the wood passing the completely-unshielded-on-any-side blade will necessarily be pinched by gravity itself. Your hand will also be encouraged by gravity to fall into the blade when this happens. Hell, the kickback path wouldn't even be guaranteed to be parallel to the fence. This machine is excruciating to even look at. I think the question was "why would this design ever need to be made" there is nothing that idiotic design can do that a standard, much safer (when used correctly) upright table saw couldn't also do just as effectively. The only thing I can possible think of is maybe, maybe cutting a groove or dado into the bottom edge of something cylindrical, but even then you could make a jig out of some 45 degree blocks and attach it to the slide or the table rail and do the exact same thing on an upright blade...

I have no earthly idea. Maybe somebody was just loving around for a picture when changing out bits on a woodshaper? It's awful.

I'm impressed, don't those things only support like 500 lbs when fully extended like that?

Booourns posted:I'm impressed, don't those things only support like 500 lbs when fully extended like that? I assume he cheaped out and got the cheaper one, so yeah, that's a quarter ton in the farthest setting. With a safety factor of three, it would be able to lift 1500 pounds before failing. Assuming that car is around 3000 pounds with a weight bias towards the front, that thing is moments from failing.

I stopped watching his videos because he went from sort of interesting projects to "WOOOW I'M SO WACKY! Here's something dangerous! This week's video brought to you by some huge brand, they gave me thousands of pounds to make a gun that shoots flame throwers at orphans!"

Yeah, I stopped because he is unnecessarily dangerous in what he does. Like, it would take no effort at all to throw on a pair of safety goggles and earplugs when angle-grinding metal indoors. Or throw together a quick protective guard to cover spinning, dangerous things in his build.

Among the litany of "holy poo poo dude come on" was the complete lack of safety glasses. Maybe the single most basic PPE. There's a sequel vid: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iCfr8N0Q8IA And his tie gets caught a minute and 20 second or so in. Wirth1000 fucked around with this message at 22:14 on Nov 17, 2019 |

Guessing he does a few photoshoots in the shop there and has a team doing the actual builds? I have no idea how you'd grind or wire wheel for more than a few minutes without PPE and have it be tolerable regardless of safety from severe injury

His projects seem to be mostly sponsored product placement now.

He's survived long enough to become famous. Being famous means there are no consequences and confers immunity to all hazards, right? He's a shock-maker, like a shock-jock only more cringey.

In a hosed up way, I wish something bad would happen to people like that. Not because I want them to suffer, but because I want people who watch them and might emulate them see the risks of their stupidity.

People who are like Matty Mathison are the reason kitchens have such poor safety reputations. He's drat entertaining, though. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zZ9SZn7QzIM&t=786s

The bits where he's filming stuff tends to be him explaining what he did or is going to do with the odd action shot.

ekuNNN posted:Im just going to say what everyone is thinking: I'm glad King of random died, he was very annoying Yeah, that's a little more than I was proposing. I was thinking more along the lines of: Wikipedia posted:In January 2018, Thompson was charged with two counts of second-degree felony possession of an explosive device for allegedly conducting incendiary experiments in his backyard.[6] The charges carried a maximum 15-year prison sentence. He was exempted from a prison sentence due to a deal he made with authorities. The deal stated that the initial charges would be dropped and that he would only be charged with a misdemeanor recklessness with an incendiary device charge, which would also be dismissed so long as Thompson did not break any laws over the next 18 months. Under the terms of his deal with police, Thompson would have created two YouTube videos educating viewers about the "physical safety and/or the legal risks associated with experiments that could be dangerous"
