I think hedge trimmer design can improve significantly to make it easier to trim smaller plants and make more precise features, perhaps my design is not terrible!

  • I didn't use a transformer, I used a handful of supercapacitors in series, but I got a similar spot-weld technique to work. Also very low voltage, only about 6-7 volts, but tons and tons of current. I think the reason it worked for me, and the reason it worked for you, is because the material was quite thin, less than a millimeter.

    • @mohammedabb985 Mehdi is brilliant and he wants to help other (not so smart) people by showing them what not to do, so they don't get hurt. He is much too smart to actually do what it looks like he is doing sometimes. Just think how talented he is and the efforts he puts into his videos to make it look (perfectly) like what he does is dangerous AF. Mehdi is not reckless. On the contrary, he knows what is harmful. He is a master at making it look real. The shocks he takes are likely real, but he would never risk his life if he knew it was a dangerous situation.

Later, his blades are lower than the protective cover and his legs are constantly in the potential trajectory of an exploding prop. He knows what he's doing when he is doing electro stuff, but I think he vastly underestimates the danger of power tools like this.

  • This video feels like one of the most dangerous ones for sure. The pan would barely stop the blades at all if the blades came loose, that close up shot was scary just watching let alone actually being there lol. I normally find everything else on here safe because circuits are a lot more predictable and they can't make contact with you(you can only touch them), but this one the blades could easily be doing the touching(slicing). Cool product though, it worked super well. If the pan had flat edges to actually catch the blades instead of curved edges so the blades just get flung out then it would be awesome.

  • Some suggestions for Mark II of this thing, if there ever is a Mark II: Maybe use string trimmer-style cutting surface instead of blades, or have the blades in a contra-rotating configuration. Also using a handle similar to those on underwater metal detectors for scuba use would probably keep the operator's hands well clear of moving parts without sacrificing dexterity.
