Outdoor life hacks with guest Mikeasaurus from Instructables

We’re talking with Mike Warren from Instructables.com about back yard hacks that’ll get you noticed—and so you can get the most out of your summer. For single-serve cookout portions, Instructables' beer can grill is easily loaded with a few charcoal briquettes and is instantly hot-dog ready. Want to bring your tunes and CDs down the lazy river? Mike brings it with a wild inner tube project.  And for a project that’ll impress Theresa’s girlfriends: A watermelon margarita—literally made out of a watermelon. All you need is an immersion blender and the right booze. And for the steak man in your crew: we find out how to use the T-bone in a T-bone steak as a knife to eat more steak with. To get and share whacky ideas of how to make a project, hit up Instructables.com for more backyard hacks and other wild ideas—both family-friendly and what Mike calls ‘after-dark’. It’s all good. "I make tasty, dangerous, and fun things...sometimes all at once! When I'm not melting microwaves or spray painting dinosaurs I can usually be found relaxing with a nice cup of coffee." -- Mike Warren (aka Mikeasaurus)?If you need quick advice for a home improvement project, check out our 3,300 blogs or 1,000 vidoes.
