brake lines, refrigeration lines, etc, use a double flare on the copper tubing- so you have to flare the one way-out- then fold it over on second flare so it fits the nuts and tightens for the pressure- she was saying they made the unit magnetic so the dies do not hit you when you are under the car flaring the lines in place, after running the lines through the chassis or whatever..lol..
@Stanley THANK YOU FOR MAKING AND SHARING! the battery pump works great! last year in 2022 i pumped 22 gallons out of my dads skii boat that had been in there since 2005! the heated wiper blades are a pure waste, auto mechanic scotty kilmer's channel get the silicone wiper blades, the last set of wiper blades you will ever have to buy for the entire life of the vehicle and sheds water far more superior and ice and snow can't stick to or freeze on the blades (still freezes to the plastic cover, but i don't wipe my windshields with that and just snap the blades on the glass it'll mostly fall off if not all !!!! the november 2020 rain to blizzard snow storm i had these on and while every ones ups truck wiper blades failed to clear windows, my truck was the only one with zero issues in that department!! worst storm to put a wiper blade into and one of thee worst storms to drive in any where this happened!! EBAY Windshield Wiper Blades 22"&22"J-HOOK For Dodge Ram 1500 2500 3500 2018-2009 Price: US $10.98/ea Bulk savings: Buy 2 or more for 10.32 each one Item Information Condition: New really like the telescoping lights! genyhitch is a hard NO ground clearance makes this an extreme issue as you know Stan! PITA to have to remove and reinstall to work around this especially in minnesota the gutter lights are california designed, i can already tell just looking outside my minnSNOW-TAH windows at my roof and gutters buried in 8" of snow after that nice 38ºF day even still! test those things with a garden hose! are they life threatening electrocution hazards when exposed to snow and water?! will they burn my house down when they short circuit from water, snow and ice penetration from being buried in snow and ice for 3-6months at a time? decked toolbox, the ladder should be the lid and the box lock. putting a ladder inside the tool box where precious space is needed for stuff you don't want stolen is a terrible idea, but as a lid, or on the lid and as part of the lock system!!!!. i'm not short so i can see everything all the way across my tool boxes and reach anything in the middle with little issue at all. with tool boxes focus on the seal system, nothing destroys expensive camera and surveying tool and electric and gas powered motors on tools faster that sitting in the box after a rain storm on friday night or saturday as has happened sever times with every tool box that is not WEATHERGUARD which is the reason why they are so expensive. pissing away $2,000-$6,000 in tools because you didn't want to spend a grand on it being WEATHERGUARD brand. also don't buy plastic tool boxes if you have valuables in them. watched a pair of mexicans steal every contractors tools from tool boxes and trailers on a lennar model home security camera, thieves stole 2 trailers and $275,000 in tools in 3 hours. from every contractor on the housing development who didn't take things home with them every day including chained up piles of aluminum scaffolding and ladders planks over at Wyndemere Farms off peony lane and hwy 55 near the wayzata high school. in 2003?4? the hair scraper remover: dollar store velcro stuck to any 1'x flat edge lumber. or better the dollar store lint roller. TAILGATE IS AWESOME. FATAL FLAW: TAILGATE WARNING LABEL SAYS RATED FOR UP TO 400# WIRE STRAPS AND HINGES AND NOT TO EXCEED! SOLUTION, LEASE THE GM PATENT FOR THE OLD FOLDING HINGED METAL BAR TAILGATE SUPPORTS WHICH HAD THE RATING FOR 1,000# ON 1995 AND OLDER. can ramps twice as wide be installed inside the tailgate? i see that black spacer filler along the bottom has no purpose and looks removeable? also what is the angle of the tailgate with ramps Apex? will a mower deck hang up on it? can i get extending ramps that also fit into this tailgate? now this is one thing i can really get behind if i can't make it serve my purpose!
Just a few changes from the 15 year old one I have (magnetic end to hold dyes) and this one has alignment pins for the dyes to be perfectly aligned but you really don't need that...mine self centers as you tighten the hold down. Effortlessly makes all sorts of flairs and mine are perfect every time (except when I forget to put the end back on before flaring...lol).
Yeah, those flashing brake lights are annoying. Regarding the flare tool, and I think the major points were the speed, not having to hold lots of fiddly parts to hold onto, and that it didn't mark up or crush the sides of the tubing.
I have Everblade Heated Wipers installed on my Jeep Gladiator via the aux switch bank and they work great. Highly recommend getting heated wipers in bad winter areas.
I LIVE for these vids on your channel. I’ve made my work life so much easier from seeing stuff you cover then buying it. KEEP DOING THESE VIDEOS!!!!!!!
Saw your plow video with that boss stand on plow, that things a beast. When I still lived in snow country I used a Honda 4x4 with a cycle country plow for my driveway and did sidewalks for a contractor. Went thru 3-4 cutting edges for it and it only last 2 seasons before it had to be replaced. That boss system would’ve been awesome. Had to add that those lights are pretty badass, can see them coming in handy.
Seems some of the sales people were hung over or something or just didn't want to be there. Owners of these companies need to understand that it's very important to have positive outgoing sales people. Maybe rotate people and allow them to have breaks. Great video and thank you for sharing.
I have attended many conventions but only as a potential customer and didn’t give much thought to the various presentations UNTIL I manned a booth at Oshkosh, the worlds largest aviation event with millions of people attending over a 7 day period. I handed out 5000 business cards… it was brutal! It’s one thing to be constantly on point but there are some absolute jerk’s out there. In a normal setting they would get a knuckle samich but there, you have to smile… I have utmost respect for those manning booths.
I purchased the "Decked Truck Tool Box" for my F-350 SD in December and love it. I purchased it without the ladder and added my own folding ladder to the tailgate. If anyone is interested, I purchased my Decked tool box through Home Depot and saved $100.00 from the Decked website price. Decked website price is $899 and HD's price is $799. Just a FYI.
@@Harikarikillboy-fs5vl Love it and it works like it should. Waterproof and very hard to break into but as we all know, nothing is impervious to power tools. I installed a folding tailgate ladder instead of using the toolbox one since it does take up room inside the box.
I liked the looks of the toolbox ladder. However, it would be 10x as useful if it would easily pop out and back into the toolbox. Perhaps give one a 2' or 3' stepstool as well as a a 5' or 6' wall ladder. Many of the pickups are big enough that a small stool would be handy to get under the hood.
The line flare tool is great because the old tools are a bar that sits perpendicular to the line and uses a screw style flare tool and floating attachments that tend to cause the flare to be angled and not seal.
The team at that booth seemed pretty pissed and passive aggressive. If you cant handle a day of people not understanding what you are talking about you dont want to be working in sales a sema.
The one that stood out for me was the tailgate extender I thought was really cool . The problem was if you load a dirt bike, the back tire would be on top of everything needed to unload it.
Hey Stan, so the lady in the green shirt was showing you a brake line flaring tool. The advantage of the tool is you can flare brake lines on the vehicle without taking them out if you have to do a repair. And what she was explaining about the ridges on the brake line is the old fashion way of making flares on the brake lines. Simply it’s a nice tool to have the toolbox if you do a Lotta brake lines
Hydraulic brake flare tool. Mastercool has had one for years. Looks almost the same except they pinned the fittings and used a magnet. Only differences I saw
Another great video! I am always amazed at the Zombies filming stuff 3 feet away in Portrait mode. The only two things that should be legal to film in portrait is the leaning tower of Pisa and the Eiffel Tower... =D
Yeah that tool that you didn't get is for repairing the end of a brake line. It doesn't mess up the line to prevent leaks, it's self centering on the line and it doesn't come apart easy because of magnets so when you're working over head it doesn't fall apart and land on your face. And you can flare the end of a line in one minute if you can do it S fast as her and that's why she was concentrating so hard.
Thank you for this Stan!! Such cool stuff each year. The heated wipers! The gutter lights!! If I had a HD truck, this flip hitch has a lot of potential. And I have NO CLUE what the brake line thing was about. My guess was about flare fittings??
The tool the lady was making a flared brake line for when your brake line gets messed up or cracked, but brake lines and transmission lines have to have a double flare to seals under the high pressures of brake systems and the tool is a nice easy way to do the job correctly!
The Bundutec Roof top tent. I've just bought one here in Australia & can't wait to use it! Yep! that's a brake line flaring tool, much better design than the usual ones & being hydraulic, it would take much less effort.
Speaking of reaching out and slapping the wipers to knock the ice off....I did that on I-225 in Denver and my wiper fell off. Backed up on the shoulder, ran out and grabbed it, in traffic, reattached it with some 95/5 wire solder. Good to go.
Stan that is for automotive break lines they require a double flare to work properly if you had a break line fail you can splice a patch section in and be back on the road quickly
The last product which was a cool tailgate extension, is interesting, as a fair amount of people need or want an eight foot box, however that is a contradiction based upon your trucks wheel base. The more weight you have further out from your shorter wheel base becomes exponential, meaning 650 lbs is now dynamically more than 650 lbs, placing more strain on your suspension system than you think.
it's a hydraulic double flare tool, makes brake line flares and fuel line flares... Good tool to Have, I got decent with it when I was running older trucks.. keep some nickel/copper line in stock and you can make new lines right in your driveway
Would you explain to me the double flare? I know flaring tools from HVAC for copper refrigerant lines but am very confused on why this is super cool and want to know what that double flare part is. This tool just looks really big to use underneath a car or truck?
Just a brake line flaring tool. One of the more expensive styles. Don't really see the point of the pump for the fuel can. But it's good to see people inventing new things regardless.
Looks liked a flailing tool sounds like you can use the tool with the lines on the vehicle. She was also trying to show how quick a person could flair a line.
About the brake line former. If you got a old vehicle that needs a line or two. Before you would to have the line former at the auto parts shop. Now all you need is line this machine formed the connection tit you need.
4:50 me this morning when windshield is frozen from both sides and wipers iced to the car. I put on wipers and motor rips itself from the wiper and only the metal bar going front and back and wiper still frozen on glass xD
The tailgate looks cool! Did some research and it's still expensive af if you want all the bells and whistles! But hey after all it's just a tailgate right? ;)
..... I have one of those hydraulic line flare kits.. I primarily use them for making brake lines, but the kit I have will do hoses to steel fittings as well (crimp and flare) .... I paid out the ass for it, but between the time it’s saved, and the money it’s made, it was a great investment for me.. It totally cut down on wasted product from people who have no business being around a tool like that from wasting all my expensive stock,lol... again, this has been a great tool for me... if you do this type of work even on a semi regular basis, I would highly recommend investing in the complete kit like I did.. Sure, the initial impact hurt, but not for long... Like my doctor says, “Ok, You’re gonna feel a small pinch.”.....😎...
A hand operated hydraulic single & double flare tool, the hydraulic feature is the benefit. This tool for metallic brake tubing (highly susceptible to corrosion as supplied from the factory) . If you are in the rust belt you will learn about this if you keep your vehicles for 25 to 30 years.
