The music started as standard British R'n'B, through classic soul,rare groove and finally hard funk.

As the music changed, so did the personnel and band name. Mainly known as the Honky Tinkers, the name changed in 1990 to the HT's, although they were popularly known as the Tinkers to their many fans.

Tinkers Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Don't want
Don't want

I can't take you with me where i'm going
I can't take you with me where i'm going

Overall Meaning

The song Hands by Tinkers shows a person having a tough time letting go of someone they love. They are conflicted because while they want to take the person with them wherever they are going, they also know deep down that it is impossible. The repetition of "Don't want" in the beginning of the song and the use of repetition in general gives the lyrics a sense of urgency and desperation, emphasizing the singer's inner turmoil.

The phrase "hands" serves as a metaphor for the connection between the person and the one they love. Hands are used to hold onto someone, to touch and feel their presence. In the song, the singer is trying to let go of this connection but can feel themselves getting pulled back by their emotions. The repetition of the phrase "hands off" shows the struggle the singer is having to resist the urge to reach out and hold onto their lover one last time.

In conclusion, Tinkers's song Hands portrays the internal struggle of letting go of someone you love. The repetition of phrases and the use of metaphors help to create an emotional depth that anyone who has experienced heartbreak can resonate with. The song is a beautiful representation of the pain, sorrow and numerous emotions that come with the end of a relationship.

5:12 this has not been true for a very, very long time; the interior/base can be as small as a single block, provided that a controller, tank, and drain are each places on one of the four sides. If you don't believe me, just build it for yourself. I use these small ones all the time.

Potato Girl

Yep, you're definitely right. My bad, I didn't realize this had changed.

@Potato Girl I reread my comment and it seemed a little bit confrontational than I meant, sorry lol

Potato Girl

@Atasco Osage lol no worries! Honestly I'm more disappointed in myself for the error lol. But it's good you pointed it out. I'd rather people have correct information.

Exempt Exploration

I been so confused with Tinkers Construct in 1.16.5. The starting books are kinda different from what I remember.. I was so lost most videos I've seen didn't explain the starting process as good as you did! You explain things so good and don't miss out the most important first steps that was confusing me. Best Tinker Construct Tutorial!

Jyoshi

pretty sure she used tinkers smelting too, which is kinda confusing, why not just use tinkers construct for a tinkers construct video?

Ali 111

You are so underrated , your explanation is better than the whole teachers in our school , thank you very much ❤

Kraus

Nice editing. I've been thinking about using pig iron for a tool with all upgrades used for reinforcement. I wonder if it would be infinite food then.

Potato Girl

Thank you so much! I'm really glad you liked it. 😊

not me

I can't wait to play this mod on the weekend!! I used to play it long ago in high school, but completely forgot the name (eventually searched for "smelter mod"). Is this on modern java minecraft or do you need to play an old version?

notyoutuber1

Tensa Zangetsu

I'm very greatful for you, very very thanks. I cannot figure out myself in new tinker's version. 💗💗

Gracias por el video, no sé mucho inglés pero aún así como lo muestras se entiende bastante

Savvy Bristow

what are the materials needed for the exchange upgrade?

Rob the blox

This is so relaxing to listen to and watch.

ThatReeRee

if your having trouble making the seared controller it updated so now instead of pouring copper onto a heater its pouring copper onto seared bricks instead

Tamjid Hossain

How do you get the iron ore itself at 3:24 for the melter?

Upint

2y↑2

Thanks, very helpful. Do you know any good material combinations ? I always struggle understanding what the best one is

Potato Girl

2y↑2

Thank you! Yeah, this can get a little confusing. As a general rule of thumb tier 4 is better than tier 3, tier 3 is better than tier 2, etc. But there are also different stats and special effects for each material. So you could really make a specialized tool for each situation.

ViloAfi

Great video well done will share 👍

CephDigital

Pro tip: if you also have a mod that adds jetpacks, use it with the slime boots and you go ZOOMING through the sky

I'm realizing how broken the "tasty" mechanic with mods that add enchantments that make tools unbreakable.

You may need a different version of JEI, or Forge, or Java, or maybe some other mod.
