post african geniuses and their devicesfirst up is the bicycle grinder
>>2973713Why don't you crawl back to /pol/?For anyone as retarded as OP, turning a bike into a sharpening station is a century old thing, pic related. People who did that job went from town to town in their bike, and along with resharpening knives they usually also carried repairs for things like umbrellas.
>>2973721That's an Italian, so on-topic.
>>2973713What's the fork for?
>>2973728that's more funny thnan it should be
>>2973783Probably a place to lay down the knife he's working on. Kind of wedge it between two tines.
>>2973783to hold the front wheel
>>2973721>>2973713isn't this like putting a knife to a bench grinder abusing it basically and taking off more metal than you should
>>2973853It depends on the grit of the stone and on the skill of the worker. Besides, a knife that's been ground down more than strictly necessary is still better than a dull knife. Also, if you're in rural nowhere, money are tight, and that's your only option for knife sharpening, then you'll take it.Now that I think about it, a spinning grinding stone is still a method in use today. Tormek are stupid expensive too.
>>2973798the problem is they really seem to build such devices sincerely.
>>2973713>>2973721I genuinely don't understand the hate. This is innovation. This is survival. You have people who are making a business with nothing but a modified bicycle, and skill. This is fantastic.Then you have people like you, calling them niggers, and trying to rope in other people who are so low in the society they live in, they are trying to make a spectacle of a society that has nothing.You've done nothing but put yourself on display as the insufferable faggot you really are. Good job.
>>2974619Crawl back to /pol/ with your weaponized teen angst and leave the adults free to enjoy /diy/.
>>2974621>go back to /pol/That's your answer to everything you don't like because you're a weak faggot. lmao
>>2974623Weak pussy confirmed. lol
>>2973853People have been sharpening knives like that for a long, long time, anon. No, it's not going to turn your head-hacking machete into a razor blade, but it'll do a good enough job. The stone isn't spinning like it would on a bench grinder. A foot-powered grinder probably barely spins fast enough to send sparks. An old farm I used to rent used to have a hand-cranked bench grinder. Did a serviceable enough job sharpening lawnmower blades.
>>2974625it does send sparks though there is a gear ratio and they like to crank the peddles to show they're working hard it's a showmanship of sorts at the expense of spectators knives
(o)(o)
>>2973721you're in the files lol
>>2974549Based response. /pol/tards have given this site a shit reputation, least they can do is stay in their containment board.
>>2974549Igger lover
>>2974829There is something really triggering to retards about poor areas making do with what they have. YT always throws these backwater pakistani roadside fix videos and the comments are nothing but seething poltards ranting.
>>2974829It was a psyop from the get go, it was meant to give the site a bad reputation, and people fell for it. Hell, I did it too. Good thing I got out eventually. Despite being a radicalization hub that programs people into shitting up the public discourse so much that pedo billionaire are left free to steal and rape with impunity, I wouldn't mind /pol/ so much if it didn't spill everywhere and jannies at least bothered to clean the mess up when it happened.
>>2974856>There is something really triggering to retards about poor areas making do with what they have. YT always throws these backwater pakistani roadside fix videos and the comments are nothing but seething poltards ranting.I actually watch a ton of those videos late at night before falling asleep on the couch. It's both interesting and horrifying. They can do some of the most crazy shit with nothing, and do a decent job of it at times, but also can't be bothered to make things even slightly easier on themselves... It's like they're borderline geniuses and complete retards all at the same time.
>>2974859It always gets me that they seemingly have no ratchets at all. Everything is done a box end wrench turn at a time.
>>2974857Sorta. /b/, /pol/, and a handful of others really got the medias attention (shootings, flag finding, pizza, whatever).The public doesn't understand what an image board is, let alone a specific board, so the domain gets thrown around the headlines. Thank god the wiki page has board specific examples, etc. I do agree with you though, keep pol on pol.
>>2973713>>2973721idgi. what's so bad about this? if anything, it's useful in areas where electrical supply is shit, and also better than hand-powered ones: you get to use both hands while powering it with your legs (which are more powerful than you arms)
>>2973721
>>2973713Is everything about blacks black blacks blacks with you people?Fucking obsessed ass retard go back to /pol/
>>2975040Blacks have better DIY culture. Westoids just buy and replace, or hire illegals to build something for them.When was the last time you saw a white man try to make a helicopter out of a lawnmower?
>butthurt samefag overloadt. noticer and recognizer of things
>>2973713
>>2974549Based. /pol/fags get the rope.
>>2973713Is this AI bullshit? What's making that grinding wheel spin? The pedals only make the bike wheel spin, but the bike wheel isn't connected to the grinding wheel by any kind of mechanism.
>>2975299You can faintly see a clear looking belt (vinyl tubing?) of sorts coming off the bike tire and going up to the spindle for the grinding wheel. High sfm from the bike tire to a small pulley would make the grinding wheel spin at a recently high rpm.
>>2973713What does an urban youth do with a machete in Africa?
>>2973722skullblower my beloved>>2973783looks like its just a shim, maybe its poking up like that so stuff can hang off it
>>2975078No, geniuses and their inventions.Pic is a dumbass with money.
>>2973853Short answer is yes. Longer answer is that scissors and kitchen knives are consumables, in most households. If you have good knives, you'll also know how to sharpen, or at least find someone to sharpen them, correctly. If you don't have good knives (aka 99% of the population) then an itinerant knife grinder will do the job fine for no effort on your part.
>>2975311Trim trees and hedges. I mean, what do you do with a machete?
>>2975333more like harvesting they're not suburbanoids
>>2975078did he just dodge two bullets
>>2974872>>2974859they're lowest common denominator salvage shops and only the owner really knows whats happening the rest are just monkeys who run the jobs
>>2975361He was bragging about how the cybertruck windows were unbreakable then threw a ball bearing at the glass and broke it. It was the first in a long line of memes about the incel camino.
>>2974857Bro that thing in OP's pic is nonhumanJust talk about metal grinding if you wish but leave polly ticks out of itDEI shit is dead & buriedHome Deport stocks are down 45% from all the ICE crackdowns and rightly soSo yeah you'll be back to sharpening your little butterknife on a bike wheel because Five Dollar a Day Guats & Mexican'ts are going bye byesMow your own lawn you soft hand liberal
>>2975311They hack each other to bits. Then liberals blame white people. It would be sad if it wasn’t so insane.
>>2975400doesn't he practice at home
>>2975333>>2975359LOL
>>2974549We all know he didn't buy that bike anon.
>>2973730>That's an Italian, so on-topic.You mean to say Italians aren't white?
>>2973713this is how they: bridge
Why is there so much seething about /pol/ in this thread?Do newfags really think /pol/ invented racism?Lol.
>>2975847
>>2974856i'm sorry anon but the engine blocks cast by indians in sandals down in some ditch aint going in any vehicle
>>2976596>implying they aren't in your current vehicle
>>2976625i'm not implying, i'm telling
this is how they: helicopter
>>2975898It's the containment board for mouthbreathers that see a man with a man with a sharpening tool and cry about him being black, despite the fact that anyone living in rural Europe sees this type of thing
it's funny to watch these "flying machines", they could be like parade floats in any other case. but then you realize they have the ego to believe that it's actually going to fly, as well as that "whitey wants to keep us down and have the sky to themselves", and then it becomes less endearing
>>2977042Wearing white lab coat = scientist.
>>2974549Innovation is going to space. Not repurposing white people's trash and figuring out how things spin with your feet in 2026.
>>2977070>Innovation is going to space. Not repurposing white people's trash and figuring out how things spin with your feet in 2026.Innovation is finding a unique solution to your problem that works, no matter how big or small the problem is.
>>2974860This was a native man in brazil whose tribe murdered by ranchers. His story is sadhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Man_of_the_Hole
>>2977107>last surviving member of his people >following their genocide by Brazilian >settlers in the 1970s–1990sWhy have I never heard of this genocide?
>>2977263its niche as fuck. Even in Brazil this isnt known much bc >one more indio tribe being wiped out by cartel loggers and miners
>>2977098Steel was invented is Europe, along with bicycles. Stealing this technology is not innovation.
>>2973713We be DJ's and shiet
>>2977299>Steel was invented is Europe, along with bicycles. Stealing this technology is not innovation.He took parts and pieces he had around him and put them together to make something he could use. That is way more innovative than you've probably ever been. What have you built lately?
I wanted to see some nigger rigs for homestead inspiration but instead got a bunch of white savior redditors mad about a word. Heres a pedal power blender they created in Guatemala I thought was interesting. Simple design of a rotary making contact with the wheel.
>>2977313nice AI image, faggot
>>2977263>Why have I never heard of this genocide?Brown perpetrators don't fit media narratives.
>>2977320>quick reverse search>find exactly where that picture comes from>who made the contraption and where, and their internet page >waybackmachine shows screenshots from 20 years ago>pic related has a 2004 dateYou shouldn't expose your cognitive deficiencies like that anon.
>>2977309Hi Doug, how's your houseboat transmission repair number 26 going?
>>2977390Don't mind me. Just enjoying some shaft-work down in Key West. Can anyone recommend a penetrating lube?
>>2977390Ah yes, the ol cope and project. You know you could have just admitted to not building anything right?
>>2973713i am looking for the car battery arc welding transformer made with scrap metal and plastic tub lids using an aligator clamp to adjust.
>>2977466>more deflection
>>2975332I don't have good knives because i'm shit at sharpening so i just have shit knives
>>2974856I see nice comments, even too nice>wow, kurdesh is based for doing this on the ground covered in sand and breathing nothing but fumes
>>2977263Because genocides against small tribes in the third world are not really noticed. A few dozen farmers wiped out a few dozen injuns and it was almost unnoticed by the third world government
>>2977030Cry more, bitch
>>2977440a penetrating lube?Maybe ill see ya on the seas. You'll know me when you see me
>>2977029where did the steal the tools from?
>>2977029>students of science laboratory
>>2977867Same as everything else - from other niggers. The problem in these places is not really getting tools or materials, it's that you have to steal them from others faster than they're stealing from you
