Paper Napkin Rose – Instant Flower Valentine

This cheesy and spontaneous “lifehack” will definitely make someones day, and could be the perfect way to break the ice.

I’ve used this little trick throughout my life, and, most memorably, one time in Hawaii when my girlfriend (at the time) went out to lunch with me. She was actually very impressed! And now we’re married, with 3 kids, and counting.

Making paper roses for more than one person at a time may lead to jealousy, confusion, and/or competition for your attention. Use of video content is at own risk.

Project History & More Info:

This was an amazing little trick I learned around 15 years ago from my good friend Irish. We were at a restaurant one night, and he blew my mind by turning one of the napkins into a rose. Since then, I’ve used the trick quite a bit, and played around with making the decorative hood around the flower head to get this awesome effect. I found it works with hamburger and taco wrappers as well!

2014 Acura TL Review, Walkaround, Exhaust, & Test Drive

As the last model year for the TL nameplate, Acura carries over its once best-selling luxury sedan with minimal changes. Still offering a strong blend of sportiness, spaciousness, and performance, the 2014 Acura TL only begins to feel old when you get inside and notice a lack of modern technology and driver assistance. If that doesn’t bother you, the TL may be exactly what you’re looking for, especially those of you looking for a good deal. Other buyers may want to wait for the upcoming 2015 TLX.

Project Inspired By:

A local craftsman, named Bryce, who works out of his home. He gave me a tour of his shop, and had designed a router station very similar to this. He gave me permission to use the idea, and make modifications.

Use of video content is at own risk. There are risks associated with these projects that require experience, caution, and/or adult supervision.

Project History & More Info:

While looking for a TV stand, I was astounded by the prices at the stores. I had a hard time believing a few pieces of wood put together could cost so much.

I started looking around on the classified ads for used options, when I came across a guy who made his own TV stands that looked awesome.

He ended up making a TV stand for us, and gave me a tour of his garage workshop just because I was curious.

He had made a flush mount router table built into his work table, and installed a light underneath to backlight it. I really liked his idea, so when I built this workbench, I tried to duplicate his idea, using 12” x 12” acrylic for the inlay because it looked awesome!

I think it turned out pretty well, and it works great.

I wired up some switches so I can turn it on and off from a safe distance.
