0:01 This item here from ProTech Metalwork
Right folks, today I'm actually in the kitchen where normally we have Chef Poitipois showing off his culinary expertise. But sadly today he couldn't be here because he's in court sorting out another legal battle where he nearly tried to kill someone through poisoning them. Anyway, I'd like to show you this item here from ProTech Metalwork Ltd. Now first of all, there you go, let me just explain what it's about. Now you've got a screwy in bit there, you've got a square holey bit there, you've got a flat bottomy bit. A flat toppy bit and you've got a lippy bit. Now of course there's many ways you could use something like this. You could possibly put a bit of wood underneath it and use it as a bird table for outside because of course logically nothing would drip off the sides. Trouble is it's metal, may rust, I don't know. Actually thinking about it, if you're using food then possibly some of the oil from the food would keep it in good condition. Alternatively...
1:24 By the way, as you can see, I've completely tidied up here today
You may be into plastering. Occasionally we all like to get plastered, of course, but that's got nothing to do with the stuff you put on. Mind you, you could. You could put a bottle of wine on there and drink it. Anyway, so of course, let's say for example you do work in the house and that kind of stuff, you could put lots of stuff on there and do the plastering like that. See? Hold it there. Anyway, what it actually is for is for one of those. That is a tripod. Now, and that sits on the top. There. But, when I first tried to put it on there, I actually thought, ha ha, it won't fit on, but it will. It's just really, really tight. A bit like my missus. You try and get a quid out of there. Have you? Right, lucky so-and-so. Right, OK, I'll show you. No, hold on. By the way, as you can see, I've completely tidied up here today. In fact, I have. You should have seen it earlier on. There was a cow, a sheep and half a horse on there. They normally come here for breakfast. Anyway, so what I'm going to do,
2:49 Road and also concentrate on every
This is a movable bird table. You can move it wherever you want to. One of those. This is a moving head. You can put it that way, that way, that way, that way. No, you can't put it that way. Just kidding. The whole idea is for it to sit on there like so. Now, my first thought about this was, yeah, great idea, fantastic. Then, when I got it in the house, I was thinking, ah, tripod, sat there in the middle of a room, could be a bit dodgy. But this is where you have to use your common sense. Now, I remember me dad saying to me years ago, he said, when you're driving along the road, you have to treat every single other driver as a complete and utter idiot. So in other words, you've always got to keep your wits about you. Make sure you've got your grey matter working and concentrate on the road and also concentrate on every single other driver. Not just the people coming towards you, the people behind you because they need to overtake and sometimes they don't or they do it at the wrong time and all that sort of stuff. So, think about it. That is freestanding. That is sat there by itself. Now, first of all and foremost before I carry on, what I thought about doing and I will do
I'm going to get some gaffer tape, go around it, around the bottom over the top, both sides so it is perfectly solid. But of course the trouble is being a tripod, some people, numpties out there, I've done it and I'm sure you have as well, you've just stuck the tripod anywhere and of course when I was talking about the car thing, about every other driver is an idiot, you have to consider the fact that when you're in a mobile environment, now theoretically When you're doing your function, you should not, well alright we all like to have a little drink occasionally, but you should be the person who shouldn't drink at all. Alright, maybe one or two drinks, I don't know, but you need to have your wits about you, because if you've got a vast amount of gear and you're in control and you're responsible for that gear, you need to be totally and utterly on the ball, in other words.
You're not going to put that in the middle of the room somewhere. Now, ideally what you need to do is shove it in the corner out the way or even behind you. This is your space. In other words, the crowd's there, your console... Cat's just gone out the window. It's life, isn't it? It's winking at me now. Oh, it's going backwards. Right, sorry. No, so the console, oh dear, it's a nightmare. Right, so crowd's there, console is here, you're here. Maybe have them behind you, at least then you know that no one's going to interfere with them because you should not really have the public coming around your space. This is where you work, alright? So there you go. I mean, have a quick look at that. I'll just put the camera a little bit closer and don't look at all the crap on the walls please, thank you very much. And there you go.
Alright, what I'll do, I'll put a clickable link in the description that will take you to their website. Practice and enjoy. Thank you very much.
