I was amazed how clean it looked once I ground down the weld, so I knew I had to make this into a loop... #shorts #welding #metalworking #strangeparts

The Worlds Smallest Scanning Electron Microscope Strange Parts 2021-06-19 | Thanks to Skillshare for sponsoring this video! The first 1,000 people to use this link will get a 1 month free trial of Skillshare: http://skl.sh/strangeparts06211I got a chance to try out the world's smallest scanning electron microscope. But, not everything went according to plan. In theory, this machine is pretty awesome - it's portable and small enough to fit in the overhead compartment. It uses an iPad as the user interface, which is pretty intuitive. But it's just never worked well for me, because I'm at a higher altitude than the manufacturer has ever tested it, which has caused all sorts of problems with high voltage arcing.0:00 Intro2:07 Preparing an iPhone5:27 How does an SEM work?6:50 iPhone MEMS microphone10:06 iPhone accelerometer13:20 iPhone gyroscope14:40 Metal coating16:31 Cardboard17:32 Thermal camera sensor22:30 Challenges of making this videoA huge thank you to everyone that helped with the video.
