Ok My channel is about enjoying life, im a trucker from Ireland. Im on youtube to share a part of my life an experiences an fun with making a few videos an hope it creates a few smiles as i time goes by. In my spare time i tinker with cars, im not a mechanic but do enjoy diy an sharing a few tips an learning new ones
I got one earlier this year, it's just fine for a small garden, 2 pairs of batteries is handy but unnecessary. Given the light weight, it doesn't need the handlebars, a simple trigger on the main stem and catch handle would have been easier to work with. Not having to pull and pull and pull the starting chord? Gotta love that.
I bought the same machine last year. Scarified in September, left the grass with no treatment whatsoever and come May my grass has never been thicker. It certainly does the job at a very reasonable price.
Tried it. Dinna work. Drill a 5/8" hole, 51mm from the back of the wheel, behind the silver strut, straight through the rubber and the aluminum. Access the spring that way.
Thank you for taking the time to educate me and many others with this video. I enjoy doing work on my car so I’m more educated in that respect and so I know what work needs doing so I’m not ripped off or scammed.
I’ve got this model but off eBay. It’s pretty powerful but don’t rely on the collection box as it’s full within seconds. I treat my moss to kill it first as using this on live moss will spread the spores.
If not done the area previously,I mow short, rake up, scaify, rake up, then iron sulphate, and re scaring a while after.Then use core remover,brush in sharp sand, and overseed.
I've got one of these and it does a good job. Set it to level 3 first and go over it, then have a look and see if it needs level 2. If it does it will be easier than just doing level 2 straight away as you have already removed a lot of thatch and moss.
I generally spray with iron sulphate before. This turns the moss black and then a couple of days later rake by hand and fill the bin. I'd like to hire the proper petrol tool and do it right some day. But would need a trailer and builders bags to get rid of all the moss. I'm no expert, but probably best to over seed the part you have done so far and water it if required.
😅 and lastly: Make your own tool and maybe avoid buying any "steering air bag removal tool" like those found on platforms like Amazon as this guy found out it was a waste of his money.

Really nice built stove. Since you are into making different models I'll take the liberty of suggesting something a little different. I noticed that you have used a thick plate for the top and I wonder if you can put hinges on it instead of welding that part permanently. That way you can used as a barbecue getting the heat from the top. Obviously that model is to be used outside when grilling. Looking forward for more of your videos. Greetings from Toronto.
Mine has gone in almost exactly the same place. It’s a Honda and the engine works perfectly. I’m wondering whether to shape a bit of wire mesh over the hole at either side and then use fibreglass and resin to hold that in and build that up for strength. Do you think that would work? I might buy a new one and I could use both to get the grass cut quicker but I am loath to scrap the machine!
Yes clean around it an get fine mesh an go to motor factors or car parts place an get a tub of fiber fill an apply it over the mesh an overlap onto the mover.
@@TheProjectGuy194 nice I saved a 5 yr old Honda rwd walk behind with badly rust deck. Cannot find another one same model. The cub cadet similar with the same Honda gcv 160 is also not around for parts. I'll be welding this deck too. Thanks again from Nova Scotia. :)
Ok start your car an turn your lights fully on an then the same switch should pull outwards a notch an should be on, from what I remember there also should be a light on your instrument panel should come on aswell. Hi has worked in yhe Northern Territory an Brisbane 30 odd years ago. Nice country an Nice people 👍
I saw videos of people doing it and just assumed it was a bent flat head screwdriver. Wouldn't release the springs and because you're working blind you don't know this. The tip on even a smaller one is too big. I had an old cheap one with a broken handle, heated and bent it then ground the tip down.
Great video mate. Thanks. Will be doing this job soon but need to know if the engine has seized first… car cut out because it had lost so much oil after having clipped what I think must be a speed hump too
Many Thank you , I could not figure out how to get through 2 bolts out .. Thanks for taking the time and including the details . Other videos just show it off and then put the gasket on .
Down the road from ya🤙🏻Mayo man here....fantastic video👏🏻👏🏻....great laugh when u mentioned the “ bastarding smoke”🤣🤣....if you were to build using same cylinder for using ONLY smokeless coal would you do ANYTHING different??????....thanks Tyrone🤙🏻🤙🏻
Probably lower the height of the door if burning smokeless coal but leave enough access for a good seize shovel. Still using the stove regularly an happy with it.
@@TheProjectGuy194 thanks for reply ....I enjoyed that vid soooo much.....our auld Romesse cast stove is bollexed so I need something like u did....great ideas ya had....WOULD A COMPRESSOR TANK WORK AS WELL WOULD YA THINK????
cut the door out first clamp flat bar with mole grips at door opening and bend the flat bar around the tank to get the precise curve in the flat bar to fit around the door precisely once welded onto the door edge fit in place in the door opening and weld the hinges into place that works better than what you are trying
Loved the process and the thinking out loud! Very impressive, truly! I’ve got a petit oval Godin I bought 40 years ago. It’s a great heater still. I’d like to get another but the cost is enormous now. So I’m thinking on making a multi burner and wanted to ask if there was a way of getting these thermal brick lining inside to match the professional ones. I’d like to burn mostly solid fuel like anthracite smokeless ovals. I had thought of attaching the fancy pig iron decor one sees on the old coal stoves but would n]know if these decorative pieces would be available. Anyway, thank you for a really interesting build and done with some dexterity too. Well done!
You are old school! I used to work with a guy like you. No guards on the grinder, scars all over his hands. Tools with chords half cut and taped. Nice ending though, you achieved a great burner. The "welding hinges before the final cut" of the door makes sense.
