Make An Emergency Candle Out Of Butter!

Most people wouldn’t think of butter as a flammable substance, but in this project they are! We’re making emergency candles that burn for hours .. using some toilet paper, and a bit of butter!

Project Inspired By:

This was an original idea. I had been playing around with making candles with vegetable oil and was about to make a video on some ways to do that. One night an idea popped into my head about melted butter and I wondered if that would work.

WARNING:

An open flame poses a fire hazard. Do not use near any flammable or explosive material. Use of this video content is at your own risk.

Project History & More Info:

To make butter burn, we actually need to vaporize it first!

A bit of rolled up toilet paper acts as a wick, and when pushed down into the center of a block of butter and ignited, we’ve may have created the worlds simplest candle.

The butter below the wick begins to melt and soak up into the paper. The heat aids the liquid butter to be released as a vapor, and it’s the vapor that’s flammable.

I used an 8oz block of butter and cut it in half. Each half burns for about 4 hours each, however, during the last 2 hours it seems most of the butter liquifies and your wick may need some support. I used a paperclip to give some stability.

Another idea would be to cut the butter into 8 sections of 1oz each and make 8 candles! Each ounce should burn for about 1 hour.

2011 Mazda 2 Sport Review, Walkaround, Exhaust

Help us grow so we can bring you more videos! Like us on Facebook @ http://www.Facebook.com/2Redline 2011 Mazda 2 Sport

Hello everyone, Well I ran into this Mazda2 Sport at auction last December & thought I’d share with you my take on it. As Mazda’s entry offering, it’s not a bad little sub-compact. For 2011 onward, just about every other competitor has a better offering, hence making little reason for anyone to choose the 2 over anything else but for some, it’s their sweet spot.

2013 Honda Civic Si – Redline: Review

Subscribe today for all the latest reviews!

With the demise of the S2000, NSX, and Prelude, the 2013 Civic Si stands as one of the last fun to drive vehicles in Honda’s current line-up. While its turbocharged competition may sound better on paper, drops of that old “Honda magic” can still be found throughout this vehicle earning it a top spot in its segment. If you are in the market for a well rounded sport compact to serve as your daily driver, this vehicle should be at the top of your list.

2010 Nissan 370Z Touring Coupe Review, Walkaround, Exhaust

Help us grow so we can bring you more videos! Like us on Facebook @ http://www.Facebook.com/2Redline 2010 Nissan 370Z Touring Coupe

Hey Y’all, I’m bringing you this sexy 2010 Nissan 370z which I stumbled upon at auction back in December. I’ve always had a soft spot for the 350z but more so the 370z for the reason that most or all flaws that existed in the older model, were rectified here. It maintains great looks, powerful engine, boosts a decent passenger cabin, comfortable seats, & an excellent choice of gearboxes. All can be had at a price thats well within reach for anyone seeking a fast, sporty, & great handling coupe. There are more inexpensive choices that directly compete like the Genesis coupe for example. Just remember that 370z may be a tad more, but it has long proven itself & won’t be some experiment that would leave you disappointed over time.

2010 Honda CR-V Review, Walkaround, Exhaust, Test Drive

Help us grow so we can bring you more videos! Like us on Facebook @ http://www.Facebook.com/2Redline Honda says this vehicle is “something new to crave” were not so sure about that, but the CR-V sure fits on the short list for many buyers looking for room to haul their families while still attaining good fuel efficiency. Aside from the modest power, the driving position, good value, excellent reliability, and strong resale value will have loyal buyers coming back for years.

2013 Ford Focus Manual Review, Walkaround, Exhaust, Test Drive

As a simple, economical, and cheap commuter car, this particular Ford Focus represents a best in class. It’s really hard to find fault in it, as the known problem areas such as MFT and the 6 speed power shift transmission are not found on this model. If you are looking to get rid of that 10 year old economy car, we’d highly recommend something like this.

WARNING:

Dry Ice is extremely cold! (-78C/-109F) and can cause instant frost-bite to exposed skin. This project should not be attempted without adult supervision and adequate training. Misuse, or careless use, of tools or projects may result in serious injury. Use of this video content is at your own risk.

Project History & More Info:

It cost just under $30 to refill the tank to get about 2 lbs of dry-ice. Contrasting that with the cost of dry-ice at the local grocery store ($1.00/lb) doesn’t make financial sense, but this method is much more fun!

If pressurized liquid CO2 is quickly depressurized, the CO2 expands to a gas, and cools its surroundings. This is called adiabatic cooling. Because the CO2 sublimates directly into a gas, it’s very clean and doesn’t leave behind any residue.

Some fire extinguishers utilize CO2 as the medium for suppressing fires. These types are mainly found in restaurant kitchens, mechanical rooms, and in areas that hold sensitive equipment like computers.

CO2 fire extinguishers are usually charged with food grade CO2 and are referred to in terms of pounds. For example, a 5lb CO2 extinguisher is charged with a 5 lb weight of liquid CO2.

CO2 fire extinguishers are marked with stickers, or holes punched in the servicing labels. They also have unusually large discharge horns, and no pressure gauges.

THE RULES: Balance 14 nails on one nail head. The nails can’t touch anything except each other, and they all have to be balancing at the same time.

Project History & More Info:

Here’s how to strike fear into your friends at your next water fight!

You may have joined me for building a hand-held Rocket Launcher and a Candy Cannon in previous projects, but did you know they can be multi-purpose devices? Not only do they launch rockets, and fire clouds of raining candy, they can also be used to fire water balloons .. and these things really fly!

I made a simple mod for the Rocket Rifle by attaching a 2′ length of 2″ PVC tubing, with some reducer fittings, so that it screws into the 1″ in-line sprinkler valve. It’s as easy as that!

Testing out some small water balloons from the dollar store, we lost sight of them after a couple hundred feet. That means these water balloons are blasting over 300 feet away! Your friends don’t stand a chance!

The balloon blasters are powered by compressed air, so to charge the system, you can either hook them up to an air compressor, or modify the valve to accept a bicycle pump.

A manual valve built into the systems allows the air chambers to be charged with air, then closed, trapping the air in the system, and making the balloon cannons completely portable! You may only get 1 or 2 shots off before having to re-charge however, so strategy will come into play!

With the Candy Cannon, I was able to load up 17 water balloons at once! And rather than just shooting them aimlessly, I targeted my neighbors house. Hopefully they realize that was just “friendly” fire.
