Awesome Satisfying

Amaury Guichon’s Realistic Pastry Fruits

Amaury Guichon’s Realistic Pastry Fruits

Expert pastry chef Amaury Guichon has made some epic edible creations over the years. He posted this satisfying compilation video, which showcases some of the many times he made his desserts look like realistic fruit. These chocolate, jam, and cake-filled treats are certainly less healthy than the fruits that fall from trees, but we bet they taste amazing.

Master of Rice

Master of Rice

Got a minor but oddly impressive skill? This person certainly does, and it’s oddly satisfying to watch. Using nothing but chopsticks and incredible patience, they meticulously separate individual black and white grains of rice. It’s the kind of thing that would leave most of us cross-eyed in seconds. Original video by Douyin user 43444719487.

An Amazing Collection of 3D Printed Fidget Toys

An Amazing Collection of 3D Printed Fidget Toys

3D printing has enabled the creation of all sorts of unique objects. Marc3DP compiled this fun and satisfying collection of 3D-printed toys to keep your fingers and brain occupied for days. The designs include push pins, buttons, knobs, gears, and various clicky things. You can find a full list with links to print them at home in the video’s description on YouTube.

A Satisfying Carbon Fiber Pattern Reveal

A Satisfying Carbon Fiber Pattern Reveal

The woven pattern of carbon fiber is something special. In this fascinating video, you’ll see how the design emerges on freshly-sanded components as a glossy clear resin finish is applied. Even though our brains know the intricate weave was always hidden just beneath the surface, there’s something undeniably magical about watching it appear before our eyes.

Unbending a Trombone

Unbending a Trombone

The trombone in this video looks like it was run over by a truck, and looks like it’s completely unsalvageable. But Robinson’s Remedies is an expert at repairing damaged brass instruments (and lip balm for musicians). It took a tremendous amount of care and hand work to restore the bell from the severely deformed brass instrument.

How Alphabet Soup Noodles Are Made

How Alphabet Soup Noodles Are Made

The letters floating in your alphabet soup had to get made somehow, and now we know how. This brief, but immensely satisfying video shows how letter-shaped tubes are extruded from pasta dough, then a spinning blade slices off each letter and drops them into a tray below. The same technique is used to make other pasta shapes.

Woodturning Colors

Woodturning Colors

Turning objects on a lathe can produce some amazing works of art. In this video from Jack Mack, he shows how he took layers of multi-color plywood and transformed them into a unique patterned bowl. He started by slicing the wood into strips and gluing them into sheets, then cut them into various size rings before stacking and working them on the lathe.

Beyblade Blaze

Beyblade Blaze

If you’ve every played with Beyblades, you know how much fun the spinning discs toys can be. In this clip, someone used an angle grinder to spin up two discs Beyblade-style, then introduced fire and fuel into the mix for a wildly satisfying 60 seconds of video. Kids, don’t try this one at home (unless your dad’s a firefighter.)

Burrito Folding Machine

Burrito Folding Machine

Ever wonder how food factories can crank out so many burritos? Well, they use a machine like this one. Watch as the Solbern BF2 SS uses its rolling, spinning plates to transport tortillas down the assembly line while gently folding their sides to wrap around ingredients. Is anyone else hungry for Mexican food now?

Wire Bonding Machines

Wire Bonding Machines

What you’re looking at here is a satisfying montage of machines designed to bend and bond tiny wires in place. The machines use ultrasonic and laser technology to reliably perform this exacting task. The part where they show the coin for scale puts things into perspective. Such machines are typically used to connect external components to silicon chips.

How a Pickleball Gets Its Holes

How a Pickleball Gets Its Holes

You know how a pickleball has all of those holes in it? We always thought they got there using some kind of a mold. But this video shows how one factory uses multiple drills to punch holes in a hollow plastic sphere. After each round of drilling, a machine rotates the ball and drills again until complete. Someone needs to turn this video into a 10-hour loop.

Restoring a Vintage Basketball Pinball Game

Restoring a Vintage Basketball Pinball Game

There’s something so satisfying about making old, tattered objects as good as new. MW Restoration did an amazing job taking a distressed early pinball game and bringing it back to life. The restoration of the basketball-themed table included a full disassembly, sandblasting, rust removal, a fresh coat of paint, and a brand new playfield graphic and hoop.

Satisfying Ball Machines

Satisfying Ball Machines

There are few things more soothing than marbles and ball bearings rolling around. Maker Engineezy shared this video showing off nine supremely satisfying ball machines. Along the way, he explains how he built each one and how they work. The machines incorporate 3D-printed components, motors, magnets, and Arduino controllers to entertain.

Removing Ice with a Leaf Blower

Removing Ice with a Leaf Blower

Winter is upon us, and with that comes the chance of ice on the ground. You could try to break it into pieces with a snow shovel and toss it to the side, or you could do what this person did: blow the sheets of ice out of the way with a leaf blower. The technique might not always work, but under the right conditions, it looks tremendously satisfying.

Cutting Through Layers of Tape

Cutting Through Layers of Tape

At first we weren’t sure what we were watching, but we were immediately transfixed by this video. The footage shows someone taking a knife to a sphere made of countless layers of tape. As they cut deeper into the tape, a rainbow of colors emerges. Go figure that there are a bunch of tape-cutting videos on YouTube.

Connect 4 with a Twist

Connect 4 with a Twist

We always enjoyed playing the game Connect 4. Maker AzureFilm3D shows off an awesome, 3D-printed variant of the classic game that uses twisted pieces of plastic instead of checkers and a matching rail system which makes the pieces twirl satisfyingly into place. Created by evets17, the Connect 4-Tex vortex model is available for download on MakerWorld.
