Hello, my name is Ovi and am joined by my wife of over 35 years, Maria. Over the years I have created videos on computer technology and travel videos to Puerto Rico and Peru. We are now building a homestead from scratch in a colder climate. Our goal is to share our experience of moving from the city suburb to a country homestead. We will share ups and downs, the good and bad. We hope that you will join us for this journey. Enjoy and thanks for stopping by.
Gracias Carmen. Habian varias soluciones, pero esta es la unica permanente, una cerca. Me funciona muy bien ahora. Y todos mis verduras y plantas estan muy grande.
Thanks Victor. I have heard about wolf urine but you have to reapply after a rainfall. Since the new fence is holding strong and there have been no new breaches, I think this is my no-maintenance permanent solution.
That is very true. My family’s culantro on the island is mostly on shady areas. All my raised beds are in full sun and I compensate by using good compost and they did great last year. One way to put them in part shade is by planting them in small pots and moving to a shady area if needed.
@@oviduran i would keep their flower stalks as well. Dont throw them away. U cant put them in the blender for sofrito or let them dry and boil them for extra flavor .
Hola Chuito, yo cuido a una señora, de Mayagüez, específicamente de L Maní. Ella ya tiene 86 años. Vive aquí , en Brandon, Florida. Ella, ya no puede ir allá. Sería posible q usted haga un contenido en el barrio del maní, en el l carserio por la playa. Garcias Ana.
I hope you skirted it with hardware cloth so nothing will dig under! I would have used hardware cloth over the whole thing also, but at least you have it over the lower part. We're in the process of building one as well! 😊
🙂WOW...🙂Amazing!👍Excellent job! 🙂Thanks for sharing this wonderful video 🙂 really fascinating 🙂🙂Carry on!🙂Your friend with big like!🙂Stay connected!🙂🙂With best wishes🙂🙂
I have one now. I ordered from Amazon the day after I put the brakes. Will be using it in a future brake job. Yes, everyone that uses the hand impact screwdriver has great results.
The two screws are put in there while the vehicle was put together during the assembly line. Yes, they do freeze up and I have also not replaced them. It seems that snow and salt help in rusting up your brake system. It seems that living there would mean in taking them apart once every year just to stop any corrosion issues. Just to inspect and not to replace.
I remember about twelve years ago not being able to take one screw off a 2003 VW and had to take it to the dealer. But if I ever put new screws in, a good idea may be to add a little anti-seize to them.
@@KING4aday46 not yet about the 52 truck. I pretty much abandoned it temporarily because of all the unexpected projects. I am almost done with the projects. I should be working on it next week. Hopefully, nothing else breaks here before I get started with it again. lol
I did not put new ones in. Those screws are not required. It’s an option. They are there for assembly purposes at the factory so the rotors don’t move or fall out during assembly. The lugnuts hold the rotors in place. I did order new screws for Honda/Acura for future use in case…
But be aware that cars historically did not come with screws in rotors. That’s a newer thing for assembly purposes when cars are being built. I noticed the screws started showing up in some cars after the year 2001 or so.
Hey Bro Ovi’s Garage is a Hit. Clear videos and straight forward info. Easy for the diy’s. I’m doing my timing belt on my Acura MDX today. The hydraulic belt tensioner is going bad. Keep those videos coming 👍👍
Thanks Al. María was expecting me driving the car at the end of the video but I did not show it. I’ve put about 135 miles since I did this video and it’s stopping perfectly and silently. Good luck with the MDX.
Sally came by this morning. If it wasn't for the deer fencing, she would probably eat all my vegetables in the garden like she did last year. But there is plenty for her to eat in the woods.
Not trying to bash on a/c companies for doing their job correctly but when you show a clip of that fellow RU-vid that was charged the $1,102.28 for supposedly getting his capacitor changed out seems to be that on his invoice you can clearly see they charged him for other items as well. So maybe it wasn’t honestly $1,102.28 you can see they charged him for 1. Dispatch trip charge 2. 30 amp fuse 3. The turbo capacitor 4. Additional labor/svc 5. 1 year H&C maintenance plan Now I normally don’t defend hvac companies but I can how to say that the $1,102.28 invoice you seen on his video claiming to be from the capacitor isn’t entirely true and can’t be bashing on a company who actually itemized the charges on the invoice.
Yes, all plants are growing well up here but keeping an eye on those gandules. I think they will produce pods in August. I am planning on making arroz con gandules later this summer. Keeping my fingers crossed.
Thanks Evelyn. I contemplated expanding the garden by a few more raised beds but will postpone until next season. I visit the garden every day and try to keep it going green. But I have a feeling that next month will be even better as they grow bigger.
I know that the culantro will grow well and it is now, slowly but surely. The pigeon peas (gandules) look like they are somewhat stagnant now but once it heats up next month they may take off.
The size of battery for our trucks is Group Size 75. I picked one up at Walmart for under 100 bucks. It is 690 Cold Cranking Amps (CCA). The higher the CCA’s the better. I haven’t installed my battery yet but will soon. So many other projects…
Hello Senior. I am so glad to see you are doing ok. I will try to keep up with your videos. The chickens look so healthy. I love your plants they are beautiful.
Good day Aix. I've been wondering what you were up to these days. Things are well on the homestead. Now is growing season up here and the garden is doing great. One groundhog started to eat some of my plants. Will be installing a short wire fence around my deer fence to keep it out. Hope all is well.
Just a note. You should not really try to do what I did in this video if you do not feel comfortable working with electricity and HVAC systems. Hire a professional. The vast majority of HVAC folks are honest and hard working and will get your system up to speed in no time. As a retired homesteader I like to try new things but I am taking a risk and can damage my own equipment if things go wrong. Keep that in mind before you tackle anything similar.
