Dear you all,
Today I would like to introduce how to make a Welding Table with rotary function and built in up and down movement.
I hope you feel interesting in my video.
Please like, share and subscri my channel to see more videos.
Thank you so much!
Kwando.

I found the video long and tedious but I think that the rotary table and implementation are great. So simple yet so functional. The ability of the rotary part to sit flush with the rest of the table is several steps above most rotary welding aids. Good work, great idea.
I like it when people have a 1 or 2 minute intro video in addition to a full-length build. The shorter video can even be just sped-up clips from the longer video.
Clever design, I like it.
I like it when the video starts with an overview of the finished product so I do not have to watch the build process. I find most DIY videos painful to watch with cutting up stock using cheap mini grinders and drilling holes with hand drills. If I actually were to build one of these projects I would watch all of it and with any build there are little details that require some thought. Often I find even the most tedious videos skip over these areas of interest in favour of endless poor welding technique.Quote:

I understand that not everyone is good at editing videos, but surely anyone can edit out those bits where the presenter wanders off to get a tool or micrometer and leaves the viewer with a fixed screen for a seemingly long period. It would of course be better if the presenter prepared properly and had everything needed readily to hand before starting.
However it does seem to be true that the most watched videos are the most trivial, as Jon once pointed out videos with big bangs and explosions are the most watched. Speaking for myself, it is only the spark of an idea that interests me. Once I have that I can/will sort out construction details myself, but I do understand that many people want more than that. Hence the market that exists for detailed plans in many fields.
I also use the forward arrow a lot to skip 5 seconds forward.
Agreed; the guys with lower skill level will find a lot of value in step-by-step plans. The guys with high skill level will generally only extract value from ideation.
tonyfoale - I've had Dr. Tony McCaffrey's book Overcome Any Obstacle to Creativity on my list for a while now, but it's competing with a tall stack of books. If your primary interest is in the spark of an idea, you might want to give it a look. McCaffrey's work is all about overcoming functional fixedness to fuel ideation. Here it is: https://www.amazon.com/Overcome-Obst.../dp/1475834632
When I was in college we used to play a mental game that works to negate the effects of functional fixedness.Quote:

Interesting game. One of the ironies of fixedness is that it's a hindrance to creativity, but it's absolutely necessary too. If every time we needed to pound in a nail, we wondered "Hmmmm....what tool can I use to do this?", we probably never would've developed technology.
My wife used to tell our young daughters about how, when single, she hung pictures in her apartment using her high-heels to drive brads into the wall and how she unscrewed the battery cover on the alarm clock using a butter knife as a screwdriver.
I guess her stories rang home on our younger daughter. When she got her first apartment, she asked me for a tool box and her first purchase was an electric drill. Her engineer husband still jokes that he married her because she was the first girl friend he ever had who had her own tools.
We all had a good laugh when I found this on the interweb...
