....and another thing....you can tell he watches that AvE guy from some of his phrasing, but I tell ya I've had to unsubscribe from that other fella because he's switched to a more BS, less info format. This 65 ford guy has what I'm looking for.

@sixtyfiveford 5 лет назад

Thanks, I'm glad you liked it. I have watched quite a few AVE older video and have also tuned out of his channel for the same reasons.

@jdog4534 4 года назад

I have been just kinda cherry picking through his latest ones. They're entertaining enough still. He points out stuff that I wouldn't think twice about. Idk how old it is but I recently saw one he did on a crate of old Soviet block 7.62 ammo. He's kinda all caught up on any power tools I'd care to see him review. He's kinda limited that way so I cut him slack on the field trips. His "fauxcabulary" (lol) was kinda annoying at first but it kinda grows on you, huh... I find myself using some of it sometimes

Same here. Been a carpenter all my life and if I get a really leaky one I'll use a piece of plastic or a Wal-Mart bag to help it seal.

@WaveAction777 4 года назад

I've often cut my own rubber washers by slipping a rubber tube fully on a drill bit in a drill and running the drill as I run a knife blade through the rubber. Any thickness with a perfect square cut. From paper thin washers and on up. You can even slip larger diameter rubber hose on hole saws to cut float bowl rubber gaskets for small engines. Great video as always !!!

DoingItCheap Good and bad with either style. The steel rusts but takes a beating. The brass ones, you drop the hose a handful of times during normal shop stuff and it gets all bent and distorted and doesn’t seal or even connect.

Omg this is awesome 👏 I feel so stupid as I thought it was the clamping force of the balls that would wear out! Thank you

@kennethnevel3263 2 месяца назад

The ball holes where out also , especially if you use air chisel or air chipper and the chipper is the worst and can wreck the coupler in one use , l have wrecked a few and need to put a 3 foot whip hose on it like l did the air chisel . Air wrench's should have whip hoses also .

But after all that it's back together and no leaks, I also find it hard to believe that those small rubber washers cant be bought somewhere from someone......... Thanks for posting!!!

@edwardparadis9474 5 лет назад

Great job extending the life on the couplers. I used to go with the Harbor Fright fittings years ago, but found it to be really false economy. I'd end up with more leaks and compressor run time which equaled more wear on it. Changed them all out for Miltons, best investment on the air system. I've used this method on water faucets for 30+ years, makes perfect sense for air too. Thanks for posting!

@sixtyfiveford 5 лет назад

Thanks, I'm glad you liked it. Miltons are the way to go.

The tire chuck you recommend in the description is the one I've had for about 6 years. It's always outside in the elements and has been knocked around plenty but it still works great and doesn't leak any air. It's a bit bulky. More so than some lock on chucks but not as much as others like my old one that always leaked and would pop off if it wasn't on just right.

I remember, many years ago I learned to use a flathead screwdriver to freshen up the brass Female end by inserting it in and twisting the flathead against the round contact surface that the Male plug pushes against. I don't recall that ever working well or at all. Now I see the fault in using that method.

@stevemolmen9123 3 года назад

Great information on the connection repair. I do have one small negative that has been a life long pet peeve of mine forever. The channel locks were used correctly when you took the fitting apart but backwards when putting it back together. Not like a lot of force was required but it really makes a difference when a sure grip is required.
