Even if you are not the handiest person around, you definitely have used a tape measure in many different circumstances. There are things about a tape measure that you may have wondered about, but never thought to ask.
Even if you haven’t wondered about these characteristics of a tape measure, the tricks that you are about to see in the video below, are well worth your time. Leah, of “See Jane Drill”, offers some invaluable tricks that the tape measure is capable of, that I, for one, am thankful to learn about.
When I have been alone doing measuring for various things, I have found it difficult to handle the tape measure myself. Leah’s tutorial will show you four invaluable tricks when using a tape measure alone.
She points out that all tape measures have these four features that will make your life easier. The first is the little slot in the middle of the metal end of the tape…it turns out that it is a “nail or screw grab”!
To see how this works, as well as the ridges at the bottom of that little metal piece and two other features, watch this incredibly illuminating footage.
Get ready for the video tutorial below and you will never look at a tape measure the same way again!

There is nothing more annoying than going to the other side of your house, and losing your WiFi connection, or having to constantly reboot your device every time you get further away from your router. I, personally, have been really irritated with this occurrence after spending money on a supposed WiFi booster.
There is still some mystique around the workings of a WiFi signal, despite the fact that it works exactly the same way that our cell phones and TV do…through radio waves. The video you are about to watch below is one of the coolest and most useful DIYs I’ve come across to date!
Not only does it explain in an easy to digest way, how information from the internet gets converted into a radio signal that allows us to access it on our devices, but provides a HACK to boost your WiFi with ZERO COST!
All you will need, for this easy-to-follow tutorial, is 1 or 2 empty beer or soda cans, a scissor or knife and some sticky “blue tack”. I’m not the handiest person in the world, and this was actually simple to do!! Best of all, after placing this over the antennas of my router, VOILA!
The signal away from the router was amplified so well, that all my devices get the same strength of WiFi connection, no matter where I am in my house!

She Places White Vinegar and Alcohol Inside Her Ear For 60 Seconds a Day. The Reason Is Brilliant!
No one wants either that clogged feeling of earwax nor the grossness of it being visible. It’s commonly thought of as dirt that needs to be removed, when in fact, earwax is actually produced by your body to protect the inner ear from things in the environment that can adversely affect it. In actuality earwax acts as a barrier from real dirt, bacteria, and other potential environmental intrusions.
Not only does earwax serve this health-maintaining function for the inner ear, but it normally gets rid of excess wax naturally. Despite this fact, many of us are bothered by that gooky feeling of excess wax, and go for the Q-tips to dig it out. In the video you are about to watch below, Dr.David Hill discusses earwax, and the best ways to clean it when it builds up and is bothersome.
He explains why using Q-tips is the very worst thing you can do when trying to clean your ears. As he discusses in greater detail, Q-tips push the earwax deeper into the canal and can cause some serious damage.
He makes some healthier suggestions for the safe cleaning of our ears, including a mixture of white vinegar and alcohol. For exact proportions and some other suggestions, follow his sensible and healthy suggestions, so that you don’t actually cause some serious damage to your inner ears.

Apparently THIS Is The Way To Cut Onions Without Crying.
Chopping onions is not a pleasant experience. In fact, it easily rates among the top most awful food prep jobs you may ever have to do in the kitchen. Lots of onions are very strong and some can be so potent they overpower you, making your eyes burn and start to water. With the combination of blurry eyes and a sharp knife your cozy night in making a simple homemade dinner can quickly turn into a kitchen nightmare…and give you a real reason to cry..
While the stinging sensation is extremely uncomfortable, it’s also completely avoidable. In the accompanying video YouTube’s Jack Scalfani of the ‘Cooking With Jack Show’ demonstrates a simple trick to cutting an onion without crying. The secret is to remove the bulb part first before you start slicing and dicing because it contains all of the gases that make our eyes burn and water. It’s important that you don’t cut into this bulb portion so do your best to remove it completely in-tact. Check the clip out to see exactly how it’s done and try it out!
To start, place the onion root-side up on the chopping board so that you’re looking right down at the scraggly roots. Take a paring knife and slowly insert it down into the root end about half an inch or so out from the center. Move it all the way around the root base in a circle and cut on a slight angle so that you end up with a cone-shaped piece. When you’re done cutting out the circle you should be able to easily remove the bulb and can discard it. At this point you can peel the dry, papery brown layers of skin off the onion and cut it up as you normally would.
This onion cutting method is effective and easy to do. Plus, it’s guaranteed to make life a little more easy and comfortable, so the next time you find yourself face to face with an onion that needs chopping, remember and try it out. You won’t shed a single tear!

Apparently I’ve Been Using Ketchup Cups Wrong For All These Years. I Had No Idea!
image via – youtube.com
The key to coming up with any new idea that will be successful, is finding something that a lot of people need, that isn’t available, or improving on something that does exist. In the video you are about to watch below, “The Crazy Russian” has yet again found a way to improve on an item that needed it.
Besides McDonalds and Burger King, there are many restaurants that use those little white paper cups for you to put your ketchup, mustard or mayo in. They are so teeny tiny, that you usually need to fill a few of them for your fries and other needs; dipping fries in their small opening can be difficult, often resulting in the container falling over.
I’m sure you all know what I’m talking about, but never thought of coming up with a solution for those little containers. Well, the clever Crazy Russian has done it again!
He shows you how to make the containers larger, in a few seconds, and always is good for a laugh.
