Lamp plug

In this article, we’ll look at how from wine cork, do it yourselfmake a lamp. According to the author, such a mini-lamp can withstand a drop from 40 meters and immersion in water.

Tools and materials:
-Wine cork;
-Light-emitting diode;
-Button mini-switch;
-Batteries;
-Soldering iron;
-Dremel;
-Knife;
-Soldering iron;
-Glue gun;


Step 1: Cork Preparation
Makes markup on the cork and cuts out, according to the markup, windows. Drills a hole from the end.



Cut out the side of the switch.

Step 2: Processing
Handles cork with a dremel with a grinding nozzle.

Step 3: Install the LED
Sets the LED, switch, batteries. Solders them. Fills with hot glue. Installs a stub.



All is ready. In more detail, the manufacturing and testing process can be seen in the video.

Gentlemen Pohmelev and Valery, do you have nothing to do but to discuss this useless garbage?

.... So it seems that all my discussion contains exactly the meaning "This is useless garbage!" : smirk: (Only in other, more "politically correct" terms and more justified).
... And all the rest of my comments are no longer a discussion of homemade work itself, but a discussion of the correctness of the names of electrical appliances! )))))
There are a lot of useful things on the Internet - let's discuss and propose them for making on this site.

.... So go for it! We will discuss ...
P.S. I'm not on these matters! According to other people's creations, I only "and talk?" ....: smirk:

In addition, there are no new homemade products, there is nothing to cling to. )))

We want - and discuss.Sunday, however. Output.

The silicone will hold on to the cork. Of course, it is necessary to lubricate not the external side of the button body, but the gap between the body and the pusher, as well as the pusher itself.

Yes, many people say "torpedo". Honestly, even for some reason such a name annoys me. After your comment, I picked up such an article why they say so.
14 comments ?! Gentlemen Pohmelev and Valery, do you have nothing to do but to discuss this useless garbage? Remember the phrase Didro: - "A man does nothing if he has no purpose, but he does not do anything useful if the goal is void." There are a lot of useful things on the Internet - let's discuss and propose them for making on this site.

then you need to lubricate the button with mineral oil, and then cover with transparent silicone
and silicone on oil will hold?
I watched the video - the author does not know how to solder, but with the batteries in general, I got some kind of horror. As for the glue on the button, this is nonsense. If you do the sealing, then you need to lubricate the button with mineral oil, and then fill up with transparent silicone, for a while enough.
Oh well. I just expressed my opinion. And "make it so that it" turns out to be "fun" is also the reason for having to be! "Every dr .... t as he wants," and that is his right ... blush Let them do what they want. If only they did not prove that this was done purely for practical reasons, if this is not so.
Well, here I do not quite agree ... At first there was only Xerox, then the others appeared. The name has already taken root by this time. The same as, for example, with the Pampers, or, in a broader sense, the name of the country, with the instruments: “Bulgarian” - only the Bulgarian “Sparky” visited the USSR. "Swedish" - except for "Husqvarna" no one has ever seen a chainsaw of such a line-up in the USSR).
... But about Dremel, for example, I heard about five years ago. Maybe a little more. And he began to use engravers (or "drills") ten years earlier.
.... Although ... Maybe it's just regional ... For example, nobody here ever called the car dashboard a “torpedo”, but from the Internet I realized that such a concept was used in Russia. (And we have a “dashboard” - for example, an overrunning clutch in the rear hub of Minsk bicycles. And other similar mechanisms. What does the instrument panel have to do with it? !!!)))))
Maybe with Dremel like that. We do not have such a brand for sale in stores. And engravers of other brands are full.

At the end of the video, Ivan did just that.
Not only at the end of the video, but also wrote at the beginning of the text: "if you add some glue on the switch,".

first manufacturer name transferred

With "dremel" the same thing happened as with the "Xerox" (which in fact is the "Zyrox").

Just the case when a proper name began to determine the name of the group. Like champagne for example.

If sorted by usefulness, then at least half of the articles from the site should be removed.

The second soldering iron will warm the first smile As for the author was dozing, he does not indicate him in the instruments in general. Just when you rewrite trying to write what would be more understandable. I understand that techies are jarring, but in principle it’s possible to grind just with an emery cloth. The main principle. Some have such tools, others do not. But write a dremel and understand about 90 percent, but I doubt the engraver. And at the expense of the application, you can play badminton at night. blush Fishermen can fit night fishing. Maybe someone will come in handy.
According to the article itself:
..... "- Dremel" ...
I understand that the author most likely meant the engraver.I understand that here, as in the case of Karcher, for example, the name of the first producer is transferred. But, as it were, the company "DREMEL" produces not only engravers. And any engraver can do this work, not only the production of "DREMEL" ..: smiley:
.. So I would suggest using non-colloquial tool names in articles. I even try to put the word "Bulgarian" in quotation marks, because not all angle grinders are produced by Sparky, as it was in the USSR ...))))))
P.S. And what will we do with the second soldering iron? : smirk: (Just kidding. I understand that "a little mistake" ....: kissing_closed_eyes:
On the homemade product itself: .... Uhh ... Why is this? : worried: I understand that I probably thought of the type in order to highlight somewhere, when you find yourself in the dark. But here, as a lantern with directional light does not fit it, you can’t light them up your own road. All that remains is to use it as a table lamp in case the light is gone, or you need to sit where it got dark! : laughing: But the thing is one-time! The resource is very limited by the capacity of soldered batteries. So, I can not imagine the need to do and carry with me in the hope that it will come in handy until the batteries die))))).
... In short, it seemed to me personally that from the category “it turned out cool”))))). Well, it’s kind of like a beer cork circular saw, which, if necessary, can be used to chop unevenly foam with a thickness of no more than one centimeter, or even cut a toothpick!))))). That is, not for practical use ... (It’s difficult, you see, to imagine the case when it is so impossible to find any knife that makes it easier to do that you have to make such a saw))))))

At the end of the video, Ivan did just that. On one of the traffic jams, the switch is flooded (or the switch is waterproof, I do not know if there are none). Rather, it is still flooded. It looks like a waterproof LED strip.

If you add a little glue to the switch, the lamp may even go under water.
- says the author.

How do you imagine this: "add some glue"? So that the switch does not initially work?

withstands ... immersion in water
Disposable - the button locks, it is not tight.
