‘jerryrigeverything’

[Bob StevensonParticipant @bobstevenson13909]

On the face of it 'jerryrigeverything' is just a YouTube channel where this young American bloke smashes up smart phones to see how well or how badly they are made. I discovered it by accident when I put the model number of my wife's smart phone into 'the tube' to look up some details. What I found is a gold nugget hidden in the dross of the internet, and many people here would like it very much.

On the web there are lots of people making too much noise for what they say and, very rarely, there's someone who speaks softly and you want to hear every word!…..Zack Nelson is one of these. As well as smashing up iPhones he has also spent 2020 on some excellent projects that are more interesting to us here, like digi-printing a giant statue of himself in concrete, helping to found a school in Africa, supplying flat screen TV's to American schools, supplying much needed crtique to the smart phone industry, marrying a paraplegic woman and making a sequence of off road bikes for her and aiding her attempts to be as normal as possible from building a lift in their living room to a raised garden full of vegetables…….Also made his wedding ring from a section of her old wheelchair inlaid with gold A nice helping of compulsive viewing!

All of Zack's exploits are delivered with a soft voice laced with a dry and pithy humour and it's only a matter of time until he is snapped up by a TV production company or mainline American studio or even US political influencers, so take a look while he is still there!

Please not that Zack has another channel where he also makes and adapts stuff including vehicles and buildings etc.

Thanks – noted for future viewing.

I'm more familiar with either jury rig or jerry built!

Talking of youtube channels that inspire, I am waiting for 'Project Binky' to be moved to mainstream TV. They are brilliant! Well explained, extreme skills and bloody funny. If you don't know them look them up!

Yes but will they ever finish the mini.
