WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:15.000 Okay, these are all the boxes for the workstation. 00:00:15.000 --> 00:00:19.520 I'm going to do my best to set it all up myself. We will see how this goes. 00:00:19.520 --> 00:00:22.520 Oh, look at that. 00:00:22.520 --> 00:00:25.520 Oh, wow. This is all velcro. And all those cable ties. 00:00:25.520 --> 00:00:33.160 Okay, so first thing, I'm going to watch the instruction video. 00:00:33.160 --> 00:00:36.880 This is going to be a doozy. I know, you're just going to focus. 00:00:36.880 --> 00:00:41.200 So they give us a sturdy plastic bag that's full of all of the like parts and bits and 00:00:41.200 --> 00:00:45.320 bolts and stuff that we'll need. But outside of that, there's no organization. 00:00:45.320 --> 00:00:48.320 It is literally just everything. Here's bits. 00:00:48.320 --> 00:00:54.320 There's an allen key. There's a wrench. A little bit of organization would have been much appreciated, to be honest. 00:00:54.320 --> 00:00:58.360 Look at this cute little guy. He's so small. He's just, he's just a little guy. 00:00:58.360 --> 00:01:01.720 So I was wasting my time with these five different sizes of hex keys. 00:01:01.720 --> 00:01:06.320 And then I remembered, in the LTT screwdriver, there's a hex bit. 00:01:06.320 --> 00:01:13.120 And because I needed five different sizes, we also have a metric hex set, LTTstore.com. 00:01:13.120 --> 00:01:17.920 So here's something. You have to attach this little guy to the bottom of the space, but they don't tell you 00:01:17.920 --> 00:01:22.920 which way is up. And you can't tell in the instructions of the video because it's too fast and too small. 00:01:22.920 --> 00:01:26.680 But they don't tell you in the instructions in the paper because those instructions, they 00:01:26.680 --> 00:01:32.240 just say put it together, which is not the most helpful. 00:01:32.240 --> 00:01:38.240 So here's something fun that I just found out. See this little hole that goes right through this thing, it's supposed to line up so that 00:01:38.240 --> 00:01:43.240 I can take this, put it on, and then put a bit through it. 00:01:43.240 --> 00:01:53.640 But this is off by about three millimeters. So I guess what I'm going to have to do is drill this hole a little bit wider, which 00:01:53.640 --> 00:02:00.240 is not what I was expecting to do. Two hours in and I only have, I don't even have the base ready yet, so yay. 00:02:00.240 --> 00:02:04.200 So I have returned from the shop and I now possess a much larger hole. 00:02:04.200 --> 00:02:08.920 Okay, so it's been a couple of days since I started building this thing. 00:02:08.920 --> 00:02:15.680 I had to leave it, do a work on some other stuff. Now I'm getting back to it and I'm going to be working on building the actual bed of this 00:02:15.680 --> 00:02:25.240 thing and it starts by putting Velcro all over the tubes so that you can have this mattress. 00:02:25.240 --> 00:02:29.640 Here we go. Use extra if you want. 00:02:29.640 --> 00:02:35.040 So I guess if I don't like it, I got to take the whole mattress off and disassemble it. 00:02:35.040 --> 00:02:49.240 This is good, we can start all the way around and then we can really kind of, not even really 00:02:49.240 --> 00:02:58.600 wrapped around on this side, right? Like, see this is all wrapped around much further and then this is just, like, it's just 00:02:58.600 --> 00:03:06.840 kind of floating there. Well, maybe if we do start on the other side, it'll help. 00:03:06.840 --> 00:03:09.600 You see the lumps? Why is it lumpy? 00:03:19.600 --> 00:03:24.640 My idea for an intro that we totally will not be able to do is that we have this at 00:03:24.640 --> 00:03:29.560 the top of a tall hill and I go, my name's Adam and this is Linus Tech Tips. 00:03:29.560 --> 00:03:35.120 And then we just, and I was like, and then we just roll this down a hill. 00:03:35.120 --> 00:03:41.720 Like, it's mostly like this is Jacket because it looks like it's a fucking roll cage. 00:03:41.720 --> 00:03:45.760 Do you not want to see this go down a hill? 00:03:45.760 --> 00:03:53.680 With all the stuff, well, and a guy, but then I have to take it apart and reassemble it 00:03:53.680 --> 00:04:06.680 because this thingy needs to go down there, which means I need to take this off or maybe 00:04:06.680 --> 00:04:12.400 I just take these two parts off, lift this up, but then I need to take this whole. 00:04:12.400 --> 00:04:14.400 This is my own fault. 00:04:24.400 --> 00:04:28.000 I just want to read this from the instructions on camera. 00:04:28.000 --> 00:04:31.800 Hold nuts and bolts inside the connectors with your fingers to prevent falling out. 00:04:31.800 --> 00:04:43.280 So see, there's the bolt in there, hold it with your fingers. 00:04:43.280 --> 00:04:48.120 Close both parts of a pipe holder around the ends of the seat pipes and proceed with tightening 00:04:48.120 --> 00:04:51.800 the pipe holder bolts evenly, alternating between the bolts. 00:04:51.800 --> 00:04:59.040 Use both Allen keys to hold the nut on one side and tighten the bolt on the other. 00:04:59.040 --> 00:05:04.480 Make sure to hold both Allen keys straight and firm when rotating to prevent the keys 00:05:04.480 --> 00:05:09.240 from slipping or damaging the hexagon head bolts. 00:05:09.240 --> 00:05:23.360 What? What? Oh my God. 00:05:23.360 --> 00:05:26.560 This is everything I need to make the side table. 00:05:26.560 --> 00:05:34.160 I'm so sorry. Yeah, I don't know how this is. 00:05:34.160 --> 00:05:38.160 Oh my God. Here we go, boys. 00:05:38.160 --> 00:06:06.800 You know, I could think of a smarter way to do this and that would be to like just take 00:06:07.160 --> 00:06:21.160 a sharpie right now, mark, and then kind of take the things off, but actually I'm good 00:06:21.160 --> 00:06:24.160 to do the smart thing. 00:06:24.160 --> 00:06:27.160 And we are live. Oh God. It's okay, Dan. 00:06:27.160 --> 00:06:30.160 You're only on the shotgun. This is going to go so wrong. Finally building it. 00:06:30.160 --> 00:06:39.160 Oh, finally. I mean, I'm continuing to build it. It's a bit like you chair for a little while now. 00:06:39.160 --> 00:06:42.160 Yeah, it's going to be, I guess it's being more of a adjustment. 00:06:42.160 --> 00:06:50.440 You can only get it to be adjusted like twice before you just hold for days. 00:06:50.440 --> 00:06:54.440 This is a lot of pieces to hold with one hand. Oh, I don't like that type. 00:06:54.440 --> 00:06:57.440 And then I need to, it's going to go here. 00:06:57.440 --> 00:07:00.440 I feel like I needed a shorter pipe. 00:07:00.720 --> 00:07:05.720 It feels a little, still a little close. 00:07:05.720 --> 00:07:08.720 I think maybe it won't warm up here. Let's just hold the laptop and then I'll have a desk here. 00:07:08.720 --> 00:07:13.720 So maybe I want the laptop on the left. No, what's going on? 00:07:13.720 --> 00:07:17.240 Did you finish that today? That's the hope. 00:07:17.240 --> 00:07:26.240 What time is it? I don't think I'm finishing it today, but eventually I got to like screw into the wood. 00:07:26.240 --> 00:07:29.240 Wood? Yeah. So there's this wood. 00:07:30.240 --> 00:07:39.240 This is going to be a desk for my keyboard here. 00:07:39.240 --> 00:07:44.240 This will be adjustable kind of. 00:07:44.240 --> 00:07:52.240 So you screw it in here and then like here we can get it at a different angle and it 00:07:52.240 --> 00:07:59.240 can be right like that. So I'm trying to figure out if, I mean, no one's going to put it there. 00:07:59.240 --> 00:08:05.240 So you could probably just go ahead with screwing it in with a couple at the front here. 00:08:05.240 --> 00:08:11.240 But the question is, would I want it to come in front of me? 00:08:11.240 --> 00:08:14.240 The real issue is just that it's all wood screws. 00:08:14.240 --> 00:08:20.240 So I kind of have to decide in advance. 00:08:20.240 --> 00:08:24.240 But this isn't terrible because I'm also going to like access it. 00:08:24.240 --> 00:08:27.240 Yeah, but we need to kind of screw it all together. 00:08:27.240 --> 00:08:31.240 I think I had another bar and then I have like a 55 inch TV. 00:08:31.240 --> 00:08:34.240 I think that's, I think that's the ultimate goal. 00:08:34.240 --> 00:08:37.240 I'm not clear as to what they shipped it with. 00:08:37.240 --> 00:08:41.240 Thanks Jonathan for filming me and making me look nicer. 00:08:41.240 --> 00:08:45.240 Jonathan Horst Mac Address. Subscribe is a good, it's good stuff. 00:08:45.240 --> 00:08:50.240 My favorite. I've become undone. 00:08:50.240 --> 00:08:53.240 I've become undone. 00:08:53.240 --> 00:08:58.240 Oh, that's actually a little, no, I think we want to like here. 00:08:58.240 --> 00:09:02.240 Do you want it higher? No, this is great. Yeah, you're happy there? 00:09:02.240 --> 00:09:05.240 Yeah. Is it centered? 00:09:05.240 --> 00:09:09.240 Yeah, it's centered on me. Okay, there we go. That's probably not going to fall down and kill you. 00:09:09.240 --> 00:09:13.240 And then the TV is going to be up here or something? Oh my God, you're going to put the TV on it too? 00:09:13.240 --> 00:09:18.240 Hell yeah. Or do I want it on this thing? 00:09:18.240 --> 00:09:21.240 That's so far away when we're down there. 00:09:21.240 --> 00:09:24.240 So it's going to be annoying because you have to refocus your eye. 00:09:24.240 --> 00:09:27.240 I also want to just get this like screwed on. Okay. 00:09:27.240 --> 00:09:32.240 I think that the desk is not going to be bad. 00:09:32.240 --> 00:09:35.240 Well, here's the thing we need to like set the height. 00:09:35.240 --> 00:09:41.240 Yeah. Okay. 00:09:41.240 --> 00:09:50.240 This is, and then if we go up, I think we'd want it. 00:09:50.240 --> 00:09:56.240 Yeah, hold it together like that. But then I'm trying to like, I'm going to put my legs like this. 00:09:56.240 --> 00:10:01.240 And then I type here. And maybe I want it further like this. 00:10:01.240 --> 00:10:04.240 But that's going to be very limiting. No. 00:10:04.240 --> 00:10:08.240 Because I want it, like my arms are going to be like this. 00:10:08.240 --> 00:10:11.240 So this is my hacking pose. 00:10:11.240 --> 00:10:14.240 I believe that's it. They started it. Maybe we should just get a drill. 00:10:14.240 --> 00:10:17.240 Yep. Oh, you got it. Dang it. 00:10:17.240 --> 00:10:20.240 Oh, are you okay? Okay, cool. Sweet. 00:10:20.240 --> 00:10:23.240 Have I got one in? That was only one in store pack? I don't know. 00:10:23.240 --> 00:10:26.240 I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. 00:10:26.240 --> 00:10:29.240 I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. 00:10:29.240 --> 00:10:37.240 I don't know. I don't know. If you look right there, you'll see, hey, hey, look at that guy. 00:10:37.240 --> 00:10:40.240 If you look right there, you'll see that it's kind of come apart. 00:10:40.240 --> 00:10:47.240 Because I guess it didn't have it tightened up. So I need to like force it together. 00:10:47.240 --> 00:10:52.240 I think it's finally ready. I'm going to move my workstation over. 00:10:52.240 --> 00:10:56.240 Join us. Welcome to a day in the life of Linus Media Group. 00:10:56.240 --> 00:10:59.240 I'm joined by A-Prime. We're professionals. 00:10:59.240 --> 00:11:02.240 I'm joined by A-Prime and the mannequin. 00:11:02.240 --> 00:11:06.240 I don't know what we're professionals at. Professional is sucking on our jobs. 00:11:06.240 --> 00:11:07.240 I don't know. 00:11:13.240 --> 00:11:16.240 Okay, here's what I'm going to do. I'm going to grab a big zip tie. 00:11:16.240 --> 00:11:19.240 I'm going to put it through here and wrap it around there. 00:11:19.240 --> 00:11:23.240 And then if it does... It won't flop as much. 00:11:23.240 --> 00:11:30.240 Okay? Okay. I appreciate your knowledge and floppage control. 00:11:30.240 --> 00:11:33.240 Sweet mother of God. 00:11:33.240 --> 00:11:38.240 Okay, we're in. Only the picture of the GQ article about the dudes... 00:11:38.240 --> 00:11:42.240 This sucks. Okay, we can leave it here. 00:11:42.240 --> 00:11:47.240 Yeah, it ain't going anywhere. What the hell did... How did they do that? 00:11:47.240 --> 00:11:50.240 Perfect, done. What? Yeah. 00:11:50.240 --> 00:11:53.240 Yay! Thank you so much, Jamie. You're welcome, buddy. 00:11:53.240 --> 00:11:57.240 Now this guy's got a computer attached. I'm a hundred percent sure. 00:11:57.240 --> 00:12:00.240 And I will not change it even if it's different. 00:12:00.240 --> 00:12:04.240 Okay, so this is your main monitor. 00:12:04.240 --> 00:12:07.240 This is awful. This doesn't even go far enough. Well, that's because you're short. 00:12:07.240 --> 00:12:11.240 What do you mean? I got that long torso. 00:12:11.240 --> 00:12:14.240 Oh, this is awful. 00:12:14.240 --> 00:12:18.240 See, I would adjust it for you, but the only way to adjust it is the screws. 00:12:18.240 --> 00:12:21.240 Why would they do that? You put it into the actual wood instead of on like a drawer. 00:12:21.240 --> 00:12:26.240 No, it should be a drawer so you can get in and out. It should be like a server thing, but... 00:12:26.240 --> 00:12:29.240 It's not even big enough for the screen. 00:12:29.240 --> 00:12:32.240 I know, it's supposed to be a... Can you have them to a 55 inch? What is this? 00:12:32.240 --> 00:12:35.240 You don't have a 55 inch. This is 48. You hate this on purpose? 00:12:35.240 --> 00:12:39.240 It is very comfortable. I will give it that. Like this chair is extremely comfortable. 00:12:39.240 --> 00:12:42.240 And that alone kind of makes you want to use it just because it is so comfortable. 00:12:42.240 --> 00:12:45.240 This isn't a work mode. But I would not look at this screen. 00:12:45.240 --> 00:12:49.240 You can go flatter for sleep. Sleep mode. Yes, you have different settings at the bottom. 00:12:49.240 --> 00:12:52.240 You get to unscrew stuff. You'll have to get out. Oh. 00:12:52.240 --> 00:12:55.240 You have to lift it up and move it down. It's not awkward. By then I've woken up. 00:12:55.240 --> 00:12:59.240 I'm back into camera mode. No, I think... Oh, here I am. 00:12:59.240 --> 00:13:04.240 So here's some of the issues I have with the way this thing is mounted. 00:13:04.240 --> 00:13:07.240 As you can see, it's hanging through just of these little pressure hooks. 00:13:07.240 --> 00:13:12.240 And as I've used this and gotten in and out of it, this has come out. 00:13:12.240 --> 00:13:15.240 It's no longer in it. Yeah, okay, sure. 00:13:15.240 --> 00:13:20.240 It might be like user error, but that doesn't inspire confidence. 00:13:20.240 --> 00:13:23.240 The fact that I did torque these pretty hard. 00:13:23.240 --> 00:13:30.240 And tighten them is pretty good. But still, they're just coming out. 00:13:30.240 --> 00:13:33.240 I worked really hard to build this. And you guys are both being very... 00:13:33.240 --> 00:13:36.240 I technically helped. You're very rude, Adam. 00:13:36.240 --> 00:13:39.240 I also helped. And Dan also worked really hard. 00:13:39.240 --> 00:13:42.240 We built this. Thank you. We. 00:13:42.240 --> 00:13:46.240 This is a team effort. You, sir. You just brought everybody down. 00:13:46.240 --> 00:13:50.240 They're like my father. We worked so hard, but it's still terrible. 00:13:50.240 --> 00:13:53.240 Yeah. Yeah, it's like everything I try at life at.
