WEBVTT 00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:06.000 Did we do a disclaimer on this video? I am not an electrician. This is not electrical advice. 00:00:16.200 --> 00:00:20.880 Since they're working on remounting the TV, this seems actually happened in the middle 00:00:20.880 --> 00:00:25.400 of a halo match once. It's got unplugged. The kids were playing hide and seek or something 00:00:25.400 --> 00:00:29.880 and kicked this. And I was like, what the heck is going on? I mean, actually a while to figure it out. 00:00:29.920 --> 00:00:32.480 It's your fault for laying 240 just across the hallway. 00:00:34.480 --> 00:00:39.160 OK, do you want to help feed this to me? The idea is that we're going to carry this all the way back 00:00:39.160 --> 00:00:46.840 to the mechanical room. Realistically, I could splice this and make a longer cable. 00:00:46.840 --> 00:00:50.800 Will you be happier if we do that? The fire department won't. 00:00:50.800 --> 00:00:53.840 That's fine. We'll just put redacted on the video. 00:00:53.840 --> 00:00:57.040 Yeah, is that how that works? You could just commit a crime on camera, 00:00:57.040 --> 00:01:01.040 but you just put redacted on it and then it's fine? I think so. 00:01:01.040 --> 00:01:04.440 That's what I've done. Hey, Floatplane. Are you a cop? 00:01:04.440 --> 00:01:07.920 You have to tell me if you're a cop, right? That's how that works. 00:01:07.920 --> 00:01:08.920 I love that excuse. 00:01:11.480 --> 00:01:15.560 Oh, we're waiting for it. Be cheese. 00:01:15.560 --> 00:01:19.200 The stud finder's so good, I gave him a name. I call him Stan. 00:01:19.200 --> 00:01:23.040 Why? It's short for Stanley. 00:01:23.040 --> 00:01:26.240 OK, buddy. We named all of our tools back when 00:01:26.240 --> 00:01:30.400 I worked at the painting company as well. So they were all Richard. 00:01:30.400 --> 00:01:34.280 You know the brand Richard. So we had Little Richard. 00:01:34.280 --> 00:01:38.040 And then we had Big Richard. And then we had Richard Bucket. 00:01:38.040 --> 00:01:42.680 Richard Fuller Caged. They were just all named Richard. 00:01:42.680 --> 00:01:47.000 You know the Dr. Seuss poem? Mrs. McCabe had 23 sons and she named them all Dave. 00:01:47.000 --> 00:01:50.560 So that was basically our job site. Can you pass me Richard? 00:01:50.560 --> 00:01:56.080 Which one? Brush Richard. No, no, the smaller one. 00:01:56.080 --> 00:02:00.840 What a stupid series of jokes. Yeah, we were a really efficient painting company. 00:02:00.840 --> 00:02:06.040 Blindest paint tips. Oh, there's not going to be any paint tips today, I'm afraid. 00:02:06.040 --> 00:02:11.120 I'm doing a very bad job. What I should normally do is sand and then prime 00:02:11.120 --> 00:02:14.320 and then two coats of paint. But I'm just going to take some paint. 00:02:14.320 --> 00:02:19.880 I'm just going to put it on there because realistically, what are you going to notice that? 00:02:19.880 --> 00:02:24.560 No, you're staring at the TV. Yeah, exactly. If you're watching a movie and it's so bad 00:02:24.560 --> 00:02:28.840 that you can be distracted by a little bit of slightly off-color paint around the edge of the TV, 00:02:28.840 --> 00:02:31.840 then you should probably watch a different movie. I'm adding a little bit of texture 00:02:31.840 --> 00:02:36.800 because this wall was rolled before. So if you just brush, then it'll catch the light a bit 00:02:36.800 --> 00:02:40.480 different in those spots. Whereas if you give it a little bit of texture, it helps to kind of hide it. 00:02:40.480 --> 00:02:45.520 And he said he wasn't going to give any tips. Then you want to blend and kind of feather around the outsides 00:02:45.520 --> 00:02:50.720 so that it's harder to spot the fresh paint. Because no matter how good of a job you do, 00:02:50.720 --> 00:02:54.400 the paint fades over time. So the new paint, even if it's exactly the same color, 00:02:54.400 --> 00:02:58.040 is going to look slightly different. You wouldn't need to touch up the paint if we just get the wall. 00:02:58.040 --> 00:03:01.160 Wouldn't need to touch up the paint if I didn't have you helping all the time. 00:03:02.480 --> 00:03:05.280 Don't even have to come back to that one, so. Okay. 00:03:06.280 --> 00:03:09.960 Get right in my face, geez. You didn't even ruin the wall inside with me. 00:03:09.960 --> 00:03:13.320 And I still got blamed. Elijah was there. Do you want me to pull back or? 00:03:13.320 --> 00:03:18.840 Nope. Oh, yeah, I got it off. Oh, okay, cool. Okay, I have a new pull cable and I have HDMI. 00:03:19.920 --> 00:03:23.520 And you guys have enough to get to the opposite side of the TV? We're not sure. 00:03:23.520 --> 00:03:27.560 I have another longer cable in case this one's no good. All right. 00:03:27.560 --> 00:03:32.280 But the only way to know for sure was to just run it through there because I haven't measured the length of this conduit. 00:03:32.280 --> 00:03:36.080 And it's not directional, right? No. Oh, shoot. 00:03:36.080 --> 00:03:39.280 Oh, thank God. It was a 50-50 shot and we got it. 00:03:39.280 --> 00:03:43.360 You got it? Oh, I felt it. Oh yeah, it's there. I just, okay, I can't. 00:03:43.360 --> 00:03:47.200 Okay, do you hate, I feel it. It's, I feel it, but it keeps disappearing. 00:03:47.200 --> 00:03:51.360 I don't know where it's going. Sorry, maybe it's going back up into the conduit. 00:03:52.400 --> 00:03:56.800 Yeah, I think so. That can happen sometimes on the toilet. You just got to make sure it... 00:03:56.800 --> 00:03:59.960 Stop. But I don't think my fingers are long. 00:03:59.960 --> 00:04:03.240 Do you have it though? No, my fingers aren't long enough. Well... 00:04:03.240 --> 00:04:06.640 Okay, is it there or not? Yes, it is there. I keep checking. How about now? 00:04:06.640 --> 00:04:11.920 It's your jerk. I was like, I don't know where it's going. 00:04:11.920 --> 00:04:15.040 Oh man. There. 00:04:16.040 --> 00:04:19.800 Gosh darn it Linus. There you go, buddy. 00:04:19.800 --> 00:04:23.120 All right, cool. It's a good thing you pay me. 00:04:23.120 --> 00:04:27.320 We're going to have to update his name on the company website. Elijah Easy Target Horner. 00:04:29.240 --> 00:04:34.920 Did you see someone on the forum did mine with my job title as sentient OSHA violation? 00:04:42.040 --> 00:04:43.720 That'd be funnier if it weren't true. 00:04:45.640 --> 00:04:48.520 He almost smoked his head today on a radiator. 00:04:50.880 --> 00:04:53.920 Did you put my hand up on him? Did you know I fell down the stairs 00:04:53.920 --> 00:04:55.320 on New Year's Eve as well? 00:04:58.160 --> 00:05:01.400 We were out with some other people from here 00:05:01.400 --> 00:05:04.920 and I just was walking downstairs carrying like 12 bottles of wine. 00:05:04.920 --> 00:05:07.960 Almost died. Like... Carrying him in your stomach? 00:05:09.160 --> 00:05:12.360 I don't drink alcohol. Yeah, that's probably a good thing. 00:05:12.360 --> 00:05:16.160 At least you didn't fall down a mountain. We're back on track. Now that the stick and slide is done, 00:05:16.160 --> 00:05:19.560 go ahead and screw those in. And the screws? Yeah. 00:05:19.560 --> 00:05:23.240 Well, I mean, you could screw them not into the holes but that would be a lot harder. 00:05:25.360 --> 00:05:26.200 Thank you for that. 00:05:31.000 --> 00:05:34.680 You sure you're not the father? Hey, I don't know, maybe. 00:05:35.880 --> 00:05:39.920 Wait. Do you even know how babies are made? 00:05:39.920 --> 00:05:43.840 No. Why would I? 00:05:43.840 --> 00:05:45.120 These ones are really strong. 00:05:49.040 --> 00:05:52.960 Are we gonna have to put warnings on the box? I thought you had to put warnings on magnets. 00:05:52.960 --> 00:05:57.600 Swallowed magnets can damage internal organs. Don't eat them. Don't eat them? 00:05:57.600 --> 00:06:01.080 That's my lunch. Elijah has informed me that these hubs 00:06:01.080 --> 00:06:06.000 do not come with cables. No. I informed you that the two we opened 00:06:06.000 --> 00:06:07.400 didn't have cables in them. 00:06:10.840 --> 00:06:14.640 Are you sure you didn't miss them? I'm 100% sure. Okay, all right. 00:06:14.640 --> 00:06:18.320 You also freshly opened that. The two I opened had been previously opened. 00:06:21.960 --> 00:06:25.720 All right, okay. Oh, so you'll believe him? Well, I mean, he's reliable. 00:06:30.480 --> 00:06:34.120 Mine's still young. It's funny, he calls him an old man 00:06:34.120 --> 00:06:39.240 the same way he calls me an old man, which makes me really old. 00:06:39.240 --> 00:06:45.120 Did we do a disclaimer on this video? I am not an electrician. This is not electrical advice. 00:06:46.120 --> 00:06:50.320 What's up, float playing peeps? I assume you're the only ones we're gonna allow to watch this. 00:06:50.400 --> 00:06:54.560 Glenn, it's pretty late and I'm sure you have places to go and people to see. 00:06:54.560 --> 00:06:58.920 How properly should I do this out of 10? Janky? 00:06:58.920 --> 00:07:02.920 Okay, how janky? Mid-tier janky or super janky? 00:07:03.960 --> 00:07:07.520 Mid-tier janky? We'll go mid-tier janky. 00:07:07.520 --> 00:07:11.120 Glenn, the cameraman has places to be, so we're gonna be going a little bit janky, 00:07:11.120 --> 00:07:15.160 which means I'm not gonna do one of my pops' tricks 00:07:15.160 --> 00:07:18.680 and cut them all to different lengths on each side. 00:07:18.680 --> 00:07:21.720 So you have one connection here, and one connection here, 00:07:21.720 --> 00:07:25.080 and then you wrap the whole thing. That makes it impossible for them to ever touch. 00:07:25.080 --> 00:07:29.320 But we're not gonna go full janky, which means I'm not gonna wrap these with electrical tape. 00:07:29.320 --> 00:07:34.880 I'm gonna solder them and use heat shrink. So, you know, that seems like a compromise, right? 00:07:34.880 --> 00:07:38.960 Mid-tier janky. How's your familiarity with high voltage stuff? 00:07:39.920 --> 00:07:43.520 Yeah, that's what I thought. Okay, cool. I mean, I'm very familiar. 00:07:43.520 --> 00:07:47.000 Just usually goes through my body. I mean, hold on a second. Do I even care? 00:07:47.000 --> 00:07:51.840 Do I have to cable manage this? Should I just run it? The theme of the video is cable manage. 00:07:51.840 --> 00:07:56.400 Fine. This is my devious plan for Ultimo Contact. 00:08:01.760 --> 00:08:05.480 There we go. Little something like that. What could go wrong? 00:08:05.480 --> 00:08:09.840 I actually have crimp connectors, but it's like a thousand watt TV, 00:08:09.840 --> 00:08:13.440 so actually that's really like four amps, 60, 40 volts. 00:08:14.920 --> 00:08:17.800 Wow. Well, I'm committed to this now. 00:08:18.720 --> 00:08:23.400 This is gonna sound a little weird, but next to my bathtub, there's a torch. 00:08:23.400 --> 00:08:26.120 Okay. Can you please bring it to me? 00:08:27.720 --> 00:08:32.040 These are really thick wires for such a wimpy soldering iron. This may not work. 00:08:32.040 --> 00:08:35.360 Linus, you didn't just have one torch, you had two. 00:08:35.360 --> 00:08:37.040 I know. Okay. 00:08:38.400 --> 00:08:40.280 I've been once good. Okay. 00:08:43.320 --> 00:08:46.480 Oh yeah, that's way better. Now we're soldering with fire. 00:08:48.120 --> 00:08:51.640 Oh man. And I only heat shrunk some of my heat shrink. 00:08:51.640 --> 00:08:55.840 Oh, great. It's okay, we can fix this. It's not pretty, 00:08:57.320 --> 00:09:03.360 but it's pretty functional. Actually, you're gonna have to also be a fourth hand. 00:09:03.360 --> 00:09:06.640 Grab the other torch. The other torch has a much smaller flame. Oh. 00:09:06.640 --> 00:09:10.120 I put it over there. Fine, this is fine. We'll just use the big flame, it's fine. Okay. 00:09:10.120 --> 00:09:13.280 I'm fine. It's more fun. 00:09:13.280 --> 00:09:16.800 Okay. So basically, I'm gonna hold this 00:09:16.800 --> 00:09:20.000 and you're gonna melt that onto there. Okay. No, no, with the small flame. 00:09:20.000 --> 00:09:23.280 Sorry. I've never soldered before, this'll be fun. 00:09:24.880 --> 00:09:28.320 Now heat up, no, no, heat up the metal. Oh. Yeah, heat up that, yeah. 00:09:28.320 --> 00:09:31.600 Yeah, it's gotta get it, yeah. But lower, go down, yeah, there you go, 00:09:31.600 --> 00:09:33.200 and then melt the solder onto it. 00:09:35.120 --> 00:09:39.720 More. More, more, more, more, more, more, more, more, more. 00:09:39.720 --> 00:09:43.280 That's good. I've never soldered before, so. Yeah, don't breathe it in. 00:09:43.280 --> 00:09:47.800 Oh, okay. All right. Heat, heat, heat, heat, heat. 00:09:47.800 --> 00:09:51.320 Oh yeah, the solder's bad. Oh, oh, oh, the heat shrink shrunk. 00:09:51.320 --> 00:09:54.600 Ah, dang it. It's too hot. 00:09:54.600 --> 00:09:59.880 Oh man, this is, this is horrible. Maybe we shouldn't even upload this to Floatplane. 00:09:59.880 --> 00:10:01.880 High Floatplane, realistically, we will. 00:10:03.240 --> 00:10:06.720 You guys won't tell us? No, it's a close. What, I won't. 00:10:06.720 --> 00:10:09.880 You're just shrinking it, not finding it. Oh, I don't, okay, I don't know, you gotta tell me. 00:10:09.880 --> 00:10:13.900 Okay, not that close. Okay, but like, highlighting it. 00:10:14.900 --> 00:10:16.020 Really, Elijah? 00:10:18.260 --> 00:10:22.060 I'm, I'm, I'm busting. I, I know you're busting my balls. Yeah. 00:10:22.060 --> 00:10:25.620 Can you tell, cause your balls are busting? Yes, very. Oh crap, I stopped. 00:10:25.620 --> 00:10:29.180 Why'd you turn it off? Cause I thought we were done. Okay, now I'm, now I'm mad. 00:10:29.180 --> 00:10:30.020 There we go. 00:10:32.180 --> 00:10:34.820 There you go, perfect. Is a strong word. 00:10:36.980 --> 00:10:38.060 It's so funny. 00:10:40.540 --> 00:10:45.580 Did I do it, dad? You did great. Okay, now let's start at the last one. 00:10:45.580 --> 00:10:49.820 I kind of imagine this format here is like, what cavemen did when they were trying to get fire going. 00:10:49.820 --> 00:10:50.980 Yeah, they're just like. 00:10:55.980 --> 00:10:59.420 I mean, this is probably fine, right? Yeah, I think it'll be fine. 00:10:59.420 --> 00:11:02.940 What are the odds that this will be a problem? All right. 00:11:05.380 --> 00:11:08.740 Holy cow. What? It looks awesome. 00:11:08.740 --> 00:11:12.260 Yeah, it's great. Yeah, we did it. Where's the electrical tape? 00:11:12.260 --> 00:11:15.620 There we go. That was my first time soldering. 00:11:15.620 --> 00:11:21.020 That was not how you do it. Oh, okay. Now we have the extra length we need to cable manage. 00:11:21.020 --> 00:11:23.340 This can get out of here. Oh, you know what? 00:11:25.220 --> 00:11:30.300 I'm going to take my scary 240 volt warning with me. 00:11:30.300 --> 00:11:35.020 We can make a new one. This one's no longer 240 volt, it's zero volt. 00:11:35.020 --> 00:11:39.020 This is a classic. Gotta keep it, keep the meme alive. 00:11:39.020 --> 00:11:41.220 What do you think, Glenn? Is the TV going to power up? 00:11:42.660 --> 00:11:47.140 What could go wrong, right? Here we go. Good luck, everybody. 00:11:50.220 --> 00:11:53.460 Out, out. This one, I think. 00:11:53.460 --> 00:11:56.500 Okay. Let's see if the TV fires up. 00:11:56.500 --> 00:12:01.660 Hey, nice. Fantastic. 00:12:01.660 --> 00:12:06.620 Works. All right. The cable survived. 00:12:06.620 --> 00:12:10.060 Everything's good. There are no cables running across the floor.
