sorry man, had just found your channel, looked interesting and the comments all talked about how great it was, but after 10 min in of just blurry video, i just had to move on. good luck.
Regarding your 32 Wright Walk behind, did you say you have a steel grass catcher that goes on the back (not the side)? Does that mower have rear discharge?
Thanks for the video. I was wondering how close you can plant it next to your driveway without needing to prune the branches, so they don't block cars coming in.
your video is very good. I am the promotion manager of HIPA,which provide accessories of Poulan,Husqvarna,STHIL,ECHO and so on. Are you willing to cooperate with us?
Great video. Thanks for sharing. I just received a brand new pair of Okatsune shears and the blades are quite loose when the handles are opened all the way. They don't get tight until I close the blades about 1-1/2". Does this sound normal or should the nut and bolt that holds the blades together be tightened? I hate to start making adjustments to a brand new tool. I also noticed there is a very small micro bevel on the backs of my blades and they are not perfectly flat like you describe in the video. The back bevel is about half the size of the small bevel on the front side of th blade. Maybe this is something new.
Three years after my comment but I had add. Lubricate blades with WD-40 or a similar product when cleaning with razor blades. MUCH easier and faster. Also, using a scraper handle such as a Titan 12030 is much safer around sharp edges. Regardless of how dirty and gummy your shear blades are, if it takes longer than two minutes to clean all four edges you're doing something wrong. LOL Enjoy and happy shearing. BTW, great videos @Paul Camara. You rock!
Paul, phenomenal restorative work for this hand tool (edger). I was noticing your precision, cleanliness, and attention to detail for all your shop products. Great video!
Everybody has different experiences in life. So I'm not trying to play mr. Know it all but the first tool you introduced was a marking gauge or scribe. And the tool you used to measure was a set of calipers not a divider. In your case you have digital calipers there are also calipers known as veneers and also dial calipers and it all depends on how you read the measurement from the calipers as to the name of the caliber. By the way great video and you are quite a good Craftsman.
The Super Clean is even more effective if you allow it to sit for 30 to 45 seconds on the dirty blade to soak into the sap and gunk on the blade, before you start trying to wipe it off. Try Camellia Oil on the blades to prevent rust and keep them lubricated - that's what the Japanese do, and a small bottle lasts for years. Thanks for the tips on keeping Okatsune Hedge Shears in shape - I have a pair and look forward to using your tips to keep them cutting perfectly.
Very nice trucks, recently found you on RU-vid 👍 I believe you run walker mowers. I was curious as to how you dump the grass clipping onto the dump bed, high dump, bins? Thank you
Hey ...if we got married....my name would be......Tamara Camara!!! Lets do it! Lol i have no idea who you are im just here to get some instructions on how to sharpen my shears and you sound like you are from Mass. Have a great day thank you for posting this helpful video. Hope u got a little laugh my pay for ur vid. 😎
How well you restored that edger looks like new I will try to give a go and restore an old edger myself, it will never look like yours but at least i will try I am only a girl
good to see you doing it the right way. unlike some people who should be learning from you. what is the make and model of the red truck behind you. ? thanks.
I’ve watched many videos about handle replacement and most were good but not as complete as this one. I learned the most from yours especially the part where you replace the rivets and drill the handle. Like you I wear a full mask and, safety glasses. An absolute must. I am redoing my shovels but now I’m off to find a half moon edger just like the one in your video. Beautiful piece .
I watched 2 other videos before this one and all I saw was they sharpening the blade with NO instructions explaining what they were do or what tools they were using. Thank you for your tutorial no I can try to sharpen my clippers.
WOW!!!!! puts a lot of valeting places to shame. over here in England loads of gardeners don't even wash their mowers monthly or yearly yet along wash their vehicles. Respect
