New blades are not cheap and can go for over 20$ for a 4 pack!<br /><br />Today I will be showing you how to stretch the life of those blades to double and sometimes triple the normal life!<br /><br />First things first. What exactly is a dull blade?<br />A dull blade is one that is no longer flat and smooth. A dull blade has little splinters of metal popping up and out making it hard to achieve a smooth shave.<br /><br />You will also notice more razor burn when your blade is dull and more cuts because these little splinters get bigger and dig deeper into your skin pulling it up causing your blade to dig into the skin.<br /><br />When you pass your dry blade on a pair of jeans backwards the little ripples in the tough jeans rip out these splinters leaving your blade much much smoother and sharper!<br /><br /><br />So finally lets get down to the steps.<br /><br />What you will need<br />1. A pair of old jeans<br />2. A razor that is dulling.<br /><br />Steps.<br />1: Take your pair of jeans and place it on the counter (Or wear them at the time)<br /><br />2: Take the razor and run it along your jeans using long strokes. Remember to stroke away from the handle. you do not want to cut your jeans!<br /><br />3: after 10 backward strokes blow on the blade to remove any metal splinters or run it under water for 10 seconds.<br /><br /><br />Store and enjoy saving money!<br /><br />This worked on all manual razors but I only recommend doing it 2 or 3 times per razor. As you strip off more metal your blade will become more and more serrated and you could end up with a bad cut if you are not careful. <br /><br />Enjoy!oinyohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00475082543071659196noreply@blogger.com36tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6844107520662821972.post-58270199292541123662011-06-10T05:07:00.000-07:002011-06-10T09:48:17.194-07:00How to make Bath bombs!Today I will teach you how to make bath bombs!<br />These guys are amazing little balls designed to fizz up and make your bath water amazing.<br />Extremely romantic and also a very good way to make a perfect bath every time.<br />Here is a youtube link to check out if you have never seen a bah bomb in action before :)<br /><br /><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H2gCcsd4dbQ">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H2gCcsd4dbQ</a><br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">My famous blue ocean bath bomb recipe!</span><br />This recipe will make your skin nice and soft. It also smells amazing and feels even more amazing!<br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">ingredients you will need</span><br /><br />• 2 cups citric acid<br />• 4 cups baking soda<br />• Witch hazel <br />• Blue powder food coloring (optional)<br />• Lavender Oil<br />• Course Sea Salt<br />• Dome Shaped Mold (A small metal mixing bowl works)<br />• Spray bottle<br /> <br /><br /><span style="font-weight:bold;">Steps</span> <br />1.Blend the citric acid and baking soda. Ensure it is blended extremely well or you will have grainy bath bombs.<br /><br />2. (Optional) Once you’ve blended really well, add your blue colorant.<br />*Do not add a ton as the witch hazel really bring it out!<br /><br />3.Add 3 Tbsp Lavender oil to the mix while you are blending!<br /><br />4.Now, this is the difficult part. Spritz (with a squirt bottle) the witch hazel onto your batch while stirring with the other hand. When your batch sticks together when squished, you need to start putting it in molds – time is of the essence. If you wait too long, the mixture will get hard. If you spritz too much, the mixture will be too wet and “grow” (start the fizzing reaction) on you.<br /><br />5.Put the bombs in molds. Make sure to put a heaping Tbsp of Sea salt at the bottom of the bowl first!– wait a few minutes and tap them out. Let them air dry for 3 or 4 hours and voila! Wonderful, hard bath bombs. The harder you pack the bath bombs, the more dense, heavy, and durable bomb you will get.<br /><br /><br />These make for great gifts or just a nice alternative to regular bubble baths!<br />Enjoy and make sure not to stay too long in the bath! your poor skin will prune!!<br /><br />Feel free to also switch the salt with something else like dried seaweed and the Lavender to another oil to try different bombs! Have fun with them!oinyohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00475082543071659196noreply@blogger.com61tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6844107520662821972.post-10324109517986135352011-06-09T06:33:00.000-07:002011-06-09T08:06:48.758-07:00Extremely healthy breakfast to go!If you are like me you usually get up in the morning and rush out the door without doing much other than washing up and getting dressed.<br />If not you may still enjoy this as you can make it very quickly and it will be a huge nutritious punch to your morning diet!<br /><br /><br /><strong>The Reeses Pieces Power Shake!!!!</strong><br />*warning contains peanuts<br /><br /><br /><br /><strong>Ingredients you will need</strong><br />1. 1 Cup Skim Milk <br />2. 2.5 Scoops of Chocolate Whey Protein<br />3. 1 large Tbsp of smooth Peanut Butter <br />4. 1 Cup "Whites" Egg Beaters (Here is a link if you have no idea what these are)<br /><a href="http://www.eggbeaters.com/products/whites.jsp">http://www.eggbeaters.com/products/whites.jsp</a><br />5. 1 Large Tbsp Creatine <br />6. 1/3rd a cup of ground Hazel nuts<br />7. 3 Ice cubes<br /><br /><strong>Steps</strong><br /><br />In a blender add all of the above and blend for 30 - 45 seconds until you have a smooth thick shake.<br />Eat/drink in a mug or container with a lid.<br /><br />The best thing about this power drink is that it is cheap for the amount the ingreds will make and will give you a massive burst of energy for multiple hours.<br />If you are planning on going hiking/camping or just have a sport coming up in a few hours this is the drink for you!<br /><br />Warning!!!!

Do not light a house or anything on fire unless you relish in the thought of going to prison.<br /><br />This is to be carried with you in a safe container while you are camping to keep a fire going all night or if you need to emergency signal someone.<br /><br /><br />Okay now to what exactly napalm is.<br />Napalm is Gas mixed with another agent used by the military to burn people alive.<br />This is not going to be used for that though and this mix is purely designed to stay lit for as long as possible. You can actually keep this stuff lit underwater!<br /><br /><br />Ingredients you will need<br />1. Unleaded gas. (does not matter the octane)<br />2. Styrofoam and lots of it<br />3. Container. Ensure that it can be sealed tightly<br /><br /><br />How to make napalm<br /><br />1. Fill your container half full of gas. (Wear a mask and be outdoors. Gas fumes are toxic)<br /><br />2. Start placing chunks of Styrofoam into the container. You will see it will instantly dissolve. Keep doing this until no more dissolves and all you have is a thick goop.<br /><br />Stir with a little stick to make sure the goop is uniform then seal. You now have napalm.<br /><br /><br />Now that you have this napalm know how to put it out..<br /><br />Flour.. Yes you will need to drown your fire in Flour to get it out.<br />Water will not work and burying it in sand will not work.<br /><br />If you by any chance get any napalm on your skin and it lights.. SCRAPE IT OFF INSTANTLY!! then cup a handful of Flour and hold it as hard as you can on the skin.<br /><br />Enjoy and be safe all. This stuff can be placed on a few logs in a camp fire to keep it burning for hours and if used for safe fun methods it will be a great tool.oinyohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00475082543071659196noreply@blogger.com48tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6844107520662821972.post-65553243056192071452011-06-07T09:04:00.001-07:002011-06-07T09:39:29.949-07:00Party prank kitDue to popular request I am going to make today's a Party prank kit.<br />Have fun but don't get yourself in trouble ;) Also be sure you don't hurt anyone!<br />Because I will be listing a bunch of products you can make and use I will separate each object. Simply pick the ones you want and make/bring them!<br /><br /><br /><strong>The case</strong><br /><br />The case can be anything from a Altoids container to a pill holder.<br />Just make sure the case is Hard and will not bend or smush in your pocket.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><strong>Salty drink</strong><br /><br />What you will need<br />Salt, water<br /><br />Wet a bit of salt and shape into a little ball. Let dry<br />When you see your victim not eyeing his drink simply slip this in!<br />Be careful though, Someone may see this and think you are slipping drugs into the drink.<br />This also works great with other party foods like dip or nachos<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><strong>Numbing of the big mouth</strong><br /><br />What you will need<br />Oragel<br /><br />This one is pretty evil. Put some Oragel into a small container in your pocket. Once you see a bottle or a glass near someone that is unattended or the person is distracted do the following.<br />1. Get oragel on your index finder and thumb<br />2. Walk by and touch the rim of the glass or the rim of the bottle with both fingers to spread the Gel on<br />3. Walk away<br /><br />The person will take another drink without notice. In about 30 seconds his mouth will start to go numb and he will probably freak out.. Warning, This may end the party.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><strong>The soap without hope</strong><br /><br />This is a silly one. Bring a bottle of transparent nail polish and head into the washroom. Pour the bottle onto the soap bar and walk away.<br />It will dry in about 4 minutes completely ruining the soap.<br />From that point on whenever someone tries to lather up all they will get is a squeaking bar of soap!<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><strong>Never sleep again</strong><br /><br />Purchase a annoyotron and when no one is looking wander into the hosts bedroom and plant it somewhere. For the next month they will be stuck thinking there is a lost cricket in the room! Very hard to find and very annoying!<br /><a href="http://www.thinkgeek.com/gadgets/electronic/8c52/">http://www.thinkgeek.com/gadgets/electronic/8c52/</a><br />(I do not sell or endorse this product)<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><strong>Hot nuts</strong><br /><br />Everyone loves mixed nuts and after a few drinks be sure they will start to become the party favorite.<br />Bring a bag of tasty salted nuts but... First do the following.<br /><br />Purchase 5 Red Habanero peppers<br />Crush these up and dilute the remains in a cup of vinegar<br />Place about 10 peanuts (or More if you are twisted) and let them soak for a hour<br />Take these out wearing some latex gloves and sprinkle a little salt on them then let them dry.<br />Add these back into the bag and shake.<br /><br />Now at the party simply dump all the nuts into a bowl and smile.. Its like Russian roulette where every nut gets them closer and closer to that deadly hot nut!<br /><br /><br /><strong>The evil carpet gag</strong><br /><br />Every ones biggest fear at a party is to have something spilled on their rug that will not come out.<br />This is a really evil one as the host will freak completely out for a short while.<br /><br />What you need<br />1. Plastic cup<br />2. Disappearing ink from a kids shop<br /><br />Simply fill the glass half full with the ink and try to walk somewhere to place it down where no one will really notice but will be right on the edge ready to fall.<br />Next stay close to it and try to have someone do a party trick that involves them swinging around in an attempt to knock the glass over. (Be creative)<br /><br />Once the glass falls the blue liquid will go everywhere freaking everyone out! Oh no!! The stains!!<br /><br />Of course everyone will try to help clean up only to find that while they are cleaning the dark blue stains are disappearing!!<br /><br />Extremely funny gag to play :D Just take it to your grave because there will be a ton of grumpy people for a while lol<br /><br /><br /><br />These are all fun and should be pretty much harmless. Just be sure to gauge the party first and make sure you are not going to do something that will cause any physical pain to the others. Have fun and enjoy!oinyohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00475082543071659196noreply@blogger.com41tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6844107520662821972.post-16206391855682387842011-06-06T08:04:00.000-07:002011-06-06T08:19:30.493-07:00Making a "stay clean" party kitThis is more of something everyone should know. I was at a party this Friday and saw people with orange pant stains and dirty orange fingers from eating Cheetos so today will be a reminder on how to avoid this.<br /><br /><br />Have you ever been at a get together or party where you start eating the food only to get dirty hands? Most of the time there will be a lack of tissue or forks so you are left eating meatballs or Cheetos with your fingers.<br /><br /><br />Now what if someone comes over that you haven't seen in a while and wants to shake your hand? Well now you wipe your hands on your pants or wave at them letting them know you are dirty.<br />What if you are talking to a friend or something important with food in your teeth, Garlic breath or a dirty face? <br /><br />At a work party or network party these little things could make the difference between getting promoted/hired or remembered as the slob at the party.<br /><br /><br />This can all be avoided if you simply bring a small party kit.<br /><br />What to have in the kit.<br /><br />5-10 large toothpicks (In case there are no forks and you would like to eat something without your hands)<br /><br />5 Small toothpicks (To clean your teeth and pick out any stuck food)<br /><br />A few small folded tissue pieces and a few wet naps (To clean your face and hands)<br /><br />A few Altoids (To freshen your breath for when you talk to people)<br /><br /><br />With a small kit like this you will really stand out in a party and the best thing is. It is ultra cheap to make! If you feel brave use it out in the open and become the talk of the party and known as the smart guy with the great ideas!oinyohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00475082543071659196noreply@blogger.com36tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6844107520662821972.post-91002421435986907812011-06-03T11:10:00.000-07:002011-06-03T11:26:59.247-07:00How to take the pain away from the dentist visit!If you are like me you hate visiting the dentist.<br />Just the thought of that little pick scraping my teeth gives me chills!<br /><br />I am going to teach you a simple trick to survive this terrible visit with little to no pain!<br /><br />First you will need to purchase the following.<br /><br />1. Orajel (from the pharmacy)<br />2. floss<br />3. mouth wash<br /><br />Now assuming you do brush your teeth do the following 2 hours before your checkup.<br /><br />Step 1.<br />Use a good mouthwash and gargle for 30 seconds before spitting it out.. do not rinse!<br /><br />Step 2. <br />Floss your teeth properly and try to get as much gunk out as you can but dont go to deep! You will probably bleed but that is ok.<br /><br />Step 3.<br />Use your mouth wash again. This time be sure to switch it well into your mouth and really try to get it in between your teeth. After 45 seconds spit it out and rinse until your are no longer spitting out bubbly water.<br /><br />Step 4.<br />Wait until you are in the waiting room at the dentist and then use a small amount of the Orajel gel on your molars and a bit on the gums on the front of your mouth.<br /><br /><br />What this does is lessen the load the dentist has to do. When you do a good self clean before you go to the dentist the only thing that will be left is the rock hard plaque they will have to remove. Because you used mouth wash and flossed then mouth washed again you not only cleaned a large amount of plaque but you also desensitized your gums a bit so when the dentist uses the metal scraper it will barely hurt.<br /><br />The bit of numbing gel will make it so when they pick your molars you wont feel it and when they use the polishing machine that gives you that burning friction feeling on the front of your teeth you will not feel it!<br /><br />** Remember not to use too much gel though. If you numb your entire mouth instead of the above spots you may make it hard for them to clean your mouth.. eg. you will have a hard time keeping your tongue out of the way.<br /><br /><br />Do this and avoid the pain and mental stress of visiting the dentist!!oinyohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00475082543071659196noreply@blogger.com47tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6844107520662821972.post-82152388369089073542011-06-02T08:34:00.000-07:002011-06-02T09:38:19.854-07:00How to make ThermiteToday I will be teaching you how to Make Thermite. I know it is not too much of a life hack but you never know when having the heat of the sun in a ball of Play-Doh ready to go may come in use. Please be sure to read everything before thinking about trying this one. <br /><br />**** WARNING **** Use EXTREME caution. <br />Thermite burns up to 2500 degrees celcius!! <br />Never use it near another living creature and make sure no one is near when its lit. <br />ONCE THERMITE IS LIT AND ACTIVE IT IS IRRIVERSABLE!! You will need to let it burn itself out before it stops. <br />NEVER POUR WATER ON THERMITE! It will cause a explosion of molten metal <br />Always make sure to wear UV protective glasses when looking at a thermite reaction. The reaction releases a large amount of UV light and may hurt your eyes <br /><br /><br />Ok now that we got that over with. Here are some uses for thermite. <br />1. In small portion it will spot weld metal together <br />2. If you pile up sand under thermite it will melt the sand into a unique glass form <br />3. It makes things go away that you do not want to exist anymore.. (Large ant colony or hard drives with sensative information) <br />4. Put the mix into a clay pot with rocks to see what a lava flow looks like in person. <br />5. to cut large metal objects in half <br />6. to show off with friends <br />7. As a absolute last resort if a preditor is coming to kill you. (Set it off between you and the animal and it will run... They all run...) <br /><br /><br />Now that you know a little more about Thermite please see how it is made. (Do not read this unless you read everything above! If you hurt yourself or others or get in trouble I take no responsibility! This is your choice weather to make this or not)<br /><br />Ingredients needed <br />1. Powder Aluminum For this either go to a paint store and buy a little can or break open a etch-a-sketch. The grey stuff inside is pure aluminum powder <br /><br />2. Powder Rust Either go back to the paint store and buy a little can or make your own. Best and safest way is to put steel wool into a jar with a water bleach (6 tablespoons)and white vinager (6 tablespoons). Come back in a day and filter the brown goo into a coffee filter and let dry in the sun. <br /><br />3. Magnesium strip or party sparkler <br /><br /><br /><br />Mixing the powders Thermite is 8 grams of powder rust to 3 grams of powder aluminum. The aluminum is much lighter than the rust so it will seem about even. Put into a dry jar and shake until it is a even mixture. <br /><br />To make a moldable thermite ball to cary around knead 4 parts Thermite to 1 part Play-Doh Setting the thermite off Thermite will need a ton of heat to be lit. <br />That is where the magnesium strip comes in. Place the strip in giving yourself about 3 inches of fuse and light it up. Next get about 10 feet away and make sure not to look directly into the magnesium strip. On a side note a party sparkler also works if you cannot find thermite as it will burn hot enough to ignite. <br /><br />Here you can see some thermite welding<br /><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EpOJE-mkWmw&feature=related">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EpOJE-mkWmw&feature=related</a><br />Here is Thermite vs a car<br /><a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rdCsbZf1_Ng&feature=related">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rdCsbZf1_Ng&feature=related</a><br />Have fun but be safe!oinyohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00475082543071659196noreply@blogger.com31tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6844107520662821972.post-31767076093762222852011-06-01T10:18:00.000-07:002011-06-01T10:25:16.571-07:00How to safely see in the dark after a midnight washroom tripHave you ever woken up in the middle of the night needing to go to the washroom?<br />Remember how painful it was to come out of the washroom into the darkness not being able to see anything? Well I will now teach you how to fix this forever!<br /><br /><br />This is a very simple life hack that the pirates started a long long time ago,<br /><br />All you need to do is close one eye before you turn the lights on in the washroom and only use 1 eye. Once you are done and turn out the lights you will notice everything is completely black. Now open your eye you had closed and you will notice you can see again and move around without risking injury!!<br /><br />Pirates used to wear patches on one eye so that when they took over a ship and the crew took the battle under the ship they could simply take off the eye patch and fight without being blinded as their eyes took a few minutes to adjust!<br /><br /><br />Use this trick next time you need to go from a dark place to a light place back to a dark place and you will instantly see the benefits!oinyohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00475082543071659196noreply@blogger.com44tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6844107520662821972.post-20457164175557531732011-05-31T11:59:00.000-07:002011-05-31T12:26:43.010-07:00How to make emergency smoke bombsBeing a hiker in the bush is fun but what is not fun is getting lost and having no way to get out.<br />Most of us will bring our cell phone out or a flair gun but what happens when you have no signal or the battery dies? What if you are really stuck and you cannot find your way out?<br /><br /><br />Getting out may depend completely on what you bring with you and having the ability to spew out a massive jet of red smoke is a huge S.O.S for anyone to see. I will now teach you how to make a red emergency smoke bomb to keep with you when you go out hiking or are traveling in areas you may need to get help in.<br /><br />Step 1<br /><br />Obtain these items.<br /><br />potassium nitrate (also known as Saltpeter) You can find this in the pharmacy or gardening shops.<br /><br />strontium salts (found in road flairs) This will make the smoke a deep deep red<br /><br />Sugar (Plain old table sugar is fine)<br /><br />Pot (To cook the smoke bomb) ** Use a crappy one as this tends to kill pots!<br /><br />Aluminum foil<br /><br />Strike anywhere matches<br /><br /><br />Step 1.<br /><br />Pour about 3 parts potassium nitrate (Saltpeter) to 2 parts sugar into the pot. Measurements don't need to be exact, but you want more Potassium nitrate than sugar or you will have a hard time lighting the smoke. <br /><br />Step 2.<br /><br />Apply low heat to the pot. Stir the mixture with a spoon using long strokes. If you see the grains of sugar starting to melt along the edges where you are stirring, once the sugar becomes liquid slowly mix in 1 more part strontium salts making sure it is mixed in well. Then remove the pan from the heat and reduce the temperature before continuing.<br /><br />* Basically you are carmelizing sugar. The mixture will melt and become a caramel or chocolate color. Continue heating/stirring until the ingredients are liquefied. Remove from heat.<br /><br />It should look like this..<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgufwm5eyaxD73MQYl2mO8ZIQjDV1gO5pFACmunWMjbLYFmlhLNOhC_vi5fDzK6T3JvbkwuxZ_AbmOjKwoPM5jTZwqd4kF51fNUj0hrfZcntieFHS5FQiUGSOBy3NdUssMTTu71AvVcXmqh/s1600/mixing.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgufwm5eyaxD73MQYl2mO8ZIQjDV1gO5pFACmunWMjbLYFmlhLNOhC_vi5fDzK6T3JvbkwuxZ_AbmOjKwoPM5jTZwqd4kF51fNUj0hrfZcntieFHS5FQiUGSOBy3NdUssMTTu71AvVcXmqh/s200/mixing.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5612963324163706146" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Step 3.<br /><br />Pour the liquid onto a piece of foil. You can pour a smaller amount onto a separate piece, to test the batch. You can pour the smoke bomb into any shape, onto an object, or into a mold. The shape and size will affect the burning pattern. ** Using a can is usually ideal.<br /><br />If you aren't going to clean your skillet immediately, pour hot water into the pan to dissolve the sugar (or else it will be harder to clean). Clean up any residue you may have spilled out of the pan, unless you want mini-smoke bombs on your stovetop.<br /><br />Step 4.<br /><br />Allow the smoke bomb to cool, as it starts to harden stick in 4 or 5 thick wooden matches in leaving a inch of the wood sticking out the top. <br /><br /><br />That is all there is to it! Once it hardens fully you can place it in a bag or in your trunk. To set it off all you need to do is light a match and set the matches stuck in the smoke bomb on fire.<br />If you use a coffee tin or something with a lid on it you will have the perfect container for this!<br /><br /><br />Just in case you need different colors of smoke please refer to the chemicals bellow and switch out the strontium salts section above for whatever chemical makes the color you desire.<br /><br />Red - strontium salts, most easily found in road flares <br />Orange - calcium chloride (laundry bleaching agent) <br />Yellow - sodium nitrate (common in chemistry lab) <br />Green - barium salts, such as barium nitrate (common in chemistry lab) <br />Greenish-Blue - copper sulfate (common in a chemistry lab, also found in many algicides for pool treatment) Blue - copper chloride (common in chemistry lab) <br />Purple - potassium permanganate (common in a chemistry lab, also used in sewage or water treatment) <br />White - magnesium sulfate (epsom salts, found on laundry aisle or in a pharmacy) <br /><br /><br />**** Please keep in mind this is for evergency use only or outdoor camp fun. Do not set one of these indoors or in any public area. You can and probably will go to jail if you cause a scare in a public area!<br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghyphenhyphenvraPpb1v0QY8azpv9zN6C384gVs9T7G505juYnVQ2D-ZwUC3Ic5yWgCDtxe1v43qcKPhP09kcsAFHBP0a3bgzoDApEw9GxT2WbRxTzrP_0hMhdP13LeXMvgyCX4-qgjDCc1aXbAONEk/s1600/red.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEghyphenhyphenvraPpb1v0QY8azpv9zN6C384gVs9T7G505juYnVQ2D-ZwUC3Ic5yWgCDtxe1v43qcKPhP09kcsAFHBP0a3bgzoDApEw9GxT2WbRxTzrP_0hMhdP13LeXMvgyCX4-qgjDCc1aXbAONEk/s200/red.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5612963516463801378" /></a>oinyohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00475082543071659196noreply@blogger.com16tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6844107520662821972.post-7472251102022260842011-05-30T14:07:00.000-07:002011-05-30T14:30:12.810-07:00How to unlock any combo lock with a canHave you ever had a lock at home or on your bike that you forgot the combo to?<br />You then had to go and get a bolt cutter to destroy the lock and we all know that takes forever if you can even find one! Here I will show you how to make a lock picking device using only a metal can and scissors!<br /><br />Step 1.<br /><br />Find a metal can.<br />I started this series with a beer can but ended up cutting myself badly so I finished with a new ice tea can. You will notice the pictures switch half way in.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v280/oinyo/2011-05-30165452.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v280/oinyo/2011-05-30165452.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Step 2.<br /><br />CAREFULLY cut the can top and bottom off like so.. Please be very careful not to cut yourself.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v280/oinyo/2011-05-30165615.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v280/oinyo/2011-05-30165615.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Step 3.<br /><br />Next step is to cut the shape out.<br />Draw a M shape on the rectangle with a marker. The M should start out a quarter from the left of the square and should be about half a inch up from the bottom. It should curve down so the bottom part is a half inch in from the left and should look like this.<br /><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjadncWM8dvFqC0f5U7dkNltt5Mhd9fDJuxaTxMZh-p8w_63PoluEVOe1uMBVG7ebbcx9tsNYJRMhvlfu4gbyYXY-G6trHeoHU1L6MRO5-SsekZbagW9fY4B8ODOM4yZb7K2zWT8z7X-71q/s1600/M.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjadncWM8dvFqC0f5U7dkNltt5Mhd9fDJuxaTxMZh-p8w_63PoluEVOe1uMBVG7ebbcx9tsNYJRMhvlfu4gbyYXY-G6trHeoHU1L6MRO5-SsekZbagW9fY4B8ODOM4yZb7K2zWT8z7X-71q/s200/M.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5612622443634979410" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Step 4.<br /><br />Simply cut and fold the can as shown in the picture. Use a ruler or something flat to flatten out the folds.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBKGzSmkkpRaC-OkoJT87ZQRd1Zr69WTCf3cn3ogp4qtdbeyul8gjiwWYVO96YJqGaKzIJRkZCljCeX5RnZR6D0Z8c8qTvI-F7pN2HRtT-f4R8k85CwELWZqchi6-GMCH45I6UD9N0QZoS/s1600/Folds.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBKGzSmkkpRaC-OkoJT87ZQRd1Zr69WTCf3cn3ogp4qtdbeyul8gjiwWYVO96YJqGaKzIJRkZCljCeX5RnZR6D0Z8c8qTvI-F7pN2HRtT-f4R8k85CwELWZqchi6-GMCH45I6UD9N0QZoS/s200/Folds.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5612622940851027698" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Step 5.<br /><br />The best method to open it is to have the part of the shim that will go inside the lock on the outside of the bar. Push it down into the padlock, and then twist to unlock it. It can be very hard to master, don't give up. It will probably take a few minutes to get it to work. These are only good for a few uses, because they begin to crumple up and will no longer fit in the lock. A good practice technique is to use an open lock, look inside at the part you are trying to force open, and try moving it while the lock is open to see what you need to do when it is closed.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgyRoCB8CU5gyDMJH0Nki5c0RDqaZpNvJ0O-lbfHM6FtAHP53e34MYOgY1Hgjc90p1VFy7-8wGwX_gEhVrihIHfr4cqG4oewtoynk7w2J8nf-0Bm_XZWkD1aZjEnolH6440qf7LktIVb_6p/s1600/lock.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgyRoCB8CU5gyDMJH0Nki5c0RDqaZpNvJ0O-lbfHM6FtAHP53e34MYOgY1Hgjc90p1VFy7-8wGwX_gEhVrihIHfr4cqG4oewtoynk7w2J8nf-0Bm_XZWkD1aZjEnolH6440qf7LktIVb_6p/s200/lock.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5612623698267416562" border="0" /></a>oinyohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00475082543071659196noreply@blogger.com20tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6844107520662821972.post-68672370160773592302011-05-29T15:14:00.000-07:002011-05-29T20:02:16.420-07:00How to make color fireNothing is cooler than going to a friends bon fire and surprising everyone by tossing in a fire log only to have the fire turn completely blue or green.<br /><br /><br />I will teaching you in this update how to color your fire different from just the boring old orange.<br /><br />First things first<br />Get a few fire logs or large pieces of wood and dry them out.<br />Next from the list bellow select a coloring agent and dilute it into a bucket of water until you cannot dissolve any more. (Get a bucket with a lid on the top so that you can seal it afterwards and use it to color dozens of future firewood!)<br /><br />Next take your firewood and soak it in the liquid for a good hour.<br />Next just leave the wood out in the sun to dry and store. *** Important. Use rubber gloves when handling the wet logs. Some of the chemicals may burn your skin when wet ***<br /><br /><br />List of coloring chemicals<br /><br />Color = Chemical<br /><br />Carmine = Lithium Chloride<br /><br />Red = Strontium Chloride<br /><br />Orange = Calcium Chloride (a bleaching powder)<br /><br />Yellow = Sodium Chloride (table salt) or Sodium Carbonate<br /><br />Yellowish Green = Borax<br /><br />Green = Copper Sulfate ( from a hardware store ) or Boric Acid (poison)<br /><br />Blue = Copper Chloride<br /><br />Violet **Will smoke a ton** = 3 parts Potassium Sulfate 1 part Potassium Nitrate (saltpeter)<br /><br />Purple = Potassium Chloride<br /><br />White = Magnesium Sulfate (Epsom salts) <br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiN510BSO5wjG59ybbs9WyuQCYm_oM0aD6yeWrrUSK4uSvtGxHyfr5uNl1ggThTQD_6O1D3LGOSW6UvXJX128ARPMQIeHr0x8x7gqa8jmZvL89JXm4wCQxGdMirLWzXrzD7OoA0Dh2x7iib/s1600/green_fire.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 200px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiN510BSO5wjG59ybbs9WyuQCYm_oM0aD6yeWrrUSK4uSvtGxHyfr5uNl1ggThTQD_6O1D3LGOSW6UvXJX128ARPMQIeHr0x8x7gqa8jmZvL89JXm4wCQxGdMirLWzXrzD7OoA0Dh2x7iib/s200/green_fire.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5612268743738482114" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMAPDwKzLns9_Y_Z0AMriemnxdqiy2XE1VZ0SqEUubESl7lSjyt0bwnNFKYA4-p6tn-O8NfXyzld5VXvN5BtUIHCUKSYIE8KeI9efxVoTo89nvNc9gb-DMNyDlNuOPDFlTLEnI9cQw3B7o/s1600/Blue_Fire.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 200px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMAPDwKzLns9_Y_Z0AMriemnxdqiy2XE1VZ0SqEUubESl7lSjyt0bwnNFKYA4-p6tn-O8NfXyzld5VXvN5BtUIHCUKSYIE8KeI9efxVoTo89nvNc9gb-DMNyDlNuOPDFlTLEnI9cQw3B7o/s200/Blue_Fire.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5612268937304752994" /></a><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Edit: Dont cook anything over these fires unless they are the salt ones :P You may get sick!!oinyohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00475082543071659196noreply@blogger.com57tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6844107520662821972.post-24599939394417303222011-05-27T06:52:00.000-07:002011-05-27T07:34:49.398-07:00Get a student discount for years after you graduate!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwrbwMCy5Ipakz3UaxR_Zr-Imwr5p0cJZTkMxtxlq3PKsMUIRfieAez_KqneZInTHDMxp3p2KWu4mEgHeYorMgrJXXVbNjsph3oROaCw5EZ4wBMJ0Z_SHD05-ewkDbrrWrQzRk-C2DCcOt/s1600/lib1.jpg"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 163px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 104px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5611401661023542162" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhwrbwMCy5Ipakz3UaxR_Zr-Imwr5p0cJZTkMxtxlq3PKsMUIRfieAez_KqneZInTHDMxp3p2KWu4mEgHeYorMgrJXXVbNjsph3oROaCw5EZ4wBMJ0Z_SHD05-ewkDbrrWrQzRk-C2DCcOt/s200/lib1.jpg" /></a><br /><br />There are a few ways to complete this task.<br /><br />The easiest way is to simply in the last year of College/University go obtain a new student ID. do not shave for a week before and you will look much older in the picture.<br /><br />You now can enjoy student prices for years!<br /><br />Another way is to simply download a free student ID maker from online. Print out a nice colour copy fitting the size of any plastic card you have in your wallet. (petsmart, Wallmart, Old credit card) and use the cheap mans laminate. (Take a strip of large boxing tape and place the card on it. Then using a second strip of tape sandwich the card between the 2 pieces and trim. Now it looks like it has been professionally laminated)<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh91rFhb4XC0lQmD8KGglTudo1jsNz66EurRzDaIdEyTCFMFSNOoNR-IxWmrMgRVDJpPh4jTGorm5aVtPcnhZu5QvUE6WBoU9DXBl9UoQYr6u13jBq6E8dePoAKxPFwpqrnJa96IPgIwN0S/s1600/cleartapelaminate.jpg"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 179px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 129px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5611398737996362386" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh91rFhb4XC0lQmD8KGglTudo1jsNz66EurRzDaIdEyTCFMFSNOoNR-IxWmrMgRVDJpPh4jTGorm5aVtPcnhZu5QvUE6WBoU9DXBl9UoQYr6u13jBq6E8dePoAKxPFwpqrnJa96IPgIwN0S/s200/cleartapelaminate.jpg" /></a><br /><br />The third way and most pain full is to simply go on google and have a card made for 5$ from one of the many companies that will create custom cards. Put the name of a institute out of state and have a modern picture on it. Almost all non government places can not and do not confirm if student Id's are legit so you can reap the benefits of behind a adult student for the low price of under 5$!<br /><br />Of course if you are desperate and don't mind shelling out 15$ you can always visit a site like this and get a international student card.<br />http://fakeidentification.co.uk/fake-id-cards-Student/fake-identification.php ( I do not endorse this site at all. It is simply a example )<br /><br />Any way you do it make sure you use it for good and nothing illigal.<br />These cards should only be meant to tease your friends with and fool your parents that own a family business into giving you discounts on already free services.<br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBjUYCqnnBH5ptQF_xyV838D-DesqhSMfgHE5LbBgX7YYkWN5gKt7JGkv1BU_Jq0fbB-GTp94l_uEEM1twIIdeuPQBp4bXuVfTvBA0D7-Gl41sSq7Y2YmWCw2kQd9qAvun689p4t0uheXI/s1600/studentq.png"><img style="MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 200px; FLOAT: left; HEIGHT: 139px; CURSOR: hand" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5611401280368960050" border="0" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiBjUYCqnnBH5ptQF_xyV838D-DesqhSMfgHE5LbBgX7YYkWN5gKt7JGkv1BU_Jq0fbB-GTp94l_uEEM1twIIdeuPQBp4bXuVfTvBA0D7-Gl41sSq7Y2YmWCw2kQd9qAvun689p4t0uheXI/s200/studentq.png" /></a>oinyohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00475082543071659196noreply@blogger.com20tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6844107520662821972.post-52527470314106464642010-05-24T17:51:00.000-07:002010-05-26T15:33:03.521-07:00Taking your T-shirt off made easy!Taking your T-shirt off can be a pain and if you with a special partner lets face it.
