Refillable Portable Air Can

An empty pressurized can that has been lying around my garage and a handy air pump gave me another idea to make my dusting job a lot easier. 

And.. of course, a valve from discarded bicycle inner tube will definitely complete the project. Ensure to sandpaper, and clean the area to be soldered. Don't forget to remove the inner stem of the inner valve since the stem have some plastic parts. I recommend to using at least 50 watts soldering iron. 

I would stay safe with 60 psi of pressure.

I Modified My Angle Grinder Stand

It has been awhile since I last posted on this site and with all those times of my absence, I thought I was able to completely change my way of doing things, I was wrong, and one day I found myself again messing with stuffs. Here I am again, this time doing things a little bit user friendly.

I added a foot switch for a pleasant on/off switch.

A bit simple look!

 Installed a butterfly nut for quick releasing the grinder, much secured.

My Pedal Assist Bike

My neighbor's kid had an electric motorcycle that has been sitting idle in the backyard for awhile. The bike ended its life after the speed controller gave up. The cost of the part could not justify the  use of it. One thing is he already outgrown the toy. I decided to give it another life in a different form.

 Trying to salvage the main frame. 

 Added a small basket to hold the battery.

 I used two swivel casters, one caster I have to bore the middle part.

There you go as it is almost completed.

HandCrank FlashLight

I wonder how this little handcrank flashlight works. They say its cheap and simply made. Sure enough we have the idea on how it works, but inside that plastic case we don't really know how it ticks.

This little wonder sealed by the plastic case. Picture taken on each sides.

Took it apart, picture in opposite sides with main parts showing the crank, gear, light assembly.
