Survive the Zombie apocalypse, or just use this fun hack when you’re in a pinch! We found it on YouTube’s CrazyRussianHacker channel “Where safety is number one priority.” It is part of his Zombie Survival Series which is both educational and fun. It’s also a great camping hack when you have a three year old who likes to color with you! You can also use this crayon candle hack during a power outage.
We found this hack on the Crazy Russian Hacker YouTube channel where “safety is number one priority.” To make this tuna can buddy burner all you need is an aluminum can (doesn’t have to be tuna), cardboard and candle wax. This is a great hack for camping or when the power goes out! Cut a strip of cardboard the size of your can, roll it up and melt wax over it. When it is time to use your buddy burner, just light it using a match or candle lighter. This burner will last for hours!
Peeling potatoes can be quick and simple and Dave Hax shows us how in this short step-by-step YouTube video. All you need is a knife, potatoes and pot for boiling. Clean potatoes before you boil them. Then follow the simple instructions in this Dave Hax YouTube video. Medium sized potatoes should take 15 to 30 minutes to cook, depending on your elevation. For roasted potatoes, chips or french fries, Dave suggests parboiling instead of boiling, then peel as instructed in video. Finally, finish preparing potatoes according to your recipe.
In this Chowhound YouTube video, Jill Santopietro shows us an easy way to make a funnel. Plastic bottles come in many different sizes with different size openings. Choose one that will work for the type of transfer you want to make, i.e. 32 oz Gatorade bottles work great for transferring grains like flour or oatmeal, whereas a 12 oz. water bottle top works great for liquids such as juice, wine or water. I absolutely love this plastic bottle top funnel hack!
Having a problem with sticking drawers? All you need is a white candle or piece of soap to undo this pesky issue which seems to plague our much loved antique chests and pre-slider dressers. Andrew from Hackables shows us its as simple as removing the drawers and rubbing inside the dresser frame, rail and drawer bottoms/sides with wax.
This hack doesn’t require a whole lot of explanation. Make sure your jar lid is dry, get about a foot of duct tape, stick one end firmly to the left edge of the jar (with the loose end of the tape coming towards you). Then just get a firm grip on the jar with one hand and pull smoothly on the tape with the other. That’s it, you’re ready to spread your marmalade or whatever you’re trying to get at. Enjoy!
