Bad news, then good news. I learn stuff all the time, my only problem is remembering it. 🤣👍

@TheUltimateRecycler 21 день назад

Hahaha - yep I know that feeling Alex! Sometimes I need to watch my own videos again to remember how to do something! 🤣🤣

It lives! 😁

@TheUltimateRecycler 21 день назад

Indeed Graham, Steve has been a great help on a few occasions! 👍😊

@tassiebob 23 дня назад

Wow, had no idea those had an anti-glare coating - thanks for sharing that!

@TheUltimateRecycler 21 день назад

Neither did I when I started cleaning it Bob! 😲

Thanks Cynthia 😊👍

Thanks for "fessing up" Chris - we've all been there, rushing to get a job done then regretting making a mistake, never mind it doesn't seem like a lot of harm was done and hopefully they'll sell, albeit at a slightly lower value ! I've got a selection of those pulleys myself that I inherited, but I also have some vintage machinery to restore that uses them, one day I'll get round to doing it !

@TheUltimateRecycler 21 день назад

Seems it hasn't made much difference to the price Andy as I have a $200 bid on eBay already! Hope it goes higher! 😁 Yep, pulleys & vintage machinery are made for each other! 👍😊

monitors have coatings on the screen! who knew? (does remind me Dad did this about 30yrs ago with a 68cm box TV). That needing to be triggered is like when some TVs need a remote to turn on, this is great info to know. I've just checked out Steve's Electronic Repair Shop (youtube) and subscribed, and a quick scroll looks like there's HEAPs of video's i'll be checking out soon for my next round of My "storage shed"(wherever it fit at the time storage).

@TheUltimateRecycler 21 день назад

Thanks Dean! Steve has been very helpful on a few occasions now. I watch his channel when I have a moment, but I don't get to all his vids!

@deej4101 23 дня назад

A few bulky items gone sure helped to empty that corner out!

@TheUltimateRecycler 21 день назад

Yep, it's feeling quite spacious out there now! I just have to avoid the temptation to start stacking other stuff in there! 😲🤣

@martincowie4520 23 дня назад

The built in degaussing button/option can really make the screen look better after a few cycles if they've gotten too close to one of your magnets.

@TheUltimateRecycler 21 день назад

Is that the 'reset' button Martin? I didn't try pressing that..

@martincowie4520 20 дней назад

@@TheUltimateRecycler No the degauss option can either be its own button or an option via the onscreen menu or some that can be triggered after a hard reset. You'd normally hear a click/twang come from the monitor and the image becomes unstable for a couple of seconds. The reset button on a monitor was more to do with stretching the screen, to make the image fill as much of the screen as possible.

IPA to clean a computer monitor?! You Aussies do use beer for everything! I guess I understand, I do use a nice Pilsner in the shower to clean my hair, on occasion. My Blond Ale girlfriend likes the way it smells.

@TheUltimateRecycler 21 день назад

Haha, Some Aussies probably drink both types of IPA! 😲🤣

@2000sborton 23 дня назад

$10 for that box of carriage bolts is a steal. Here in Canada, those larger sizes can go for $1 and up each. I just bought some new at our local hardware store and am still suffering from the sticker shock.

@TheUltimateRecycler 21 день назад

Yep, a bargain for someone I'm sure! That's how we like to run our shop - it keeps people coming back! 😊👍

@johnanders2090 23 дня назад

Wondered where you were....

@TheUltimateRecycler 21 день назад

Been a little busy John! 🙄

@Th3Pr0digalS0n 23 дня назад

It's too bad they didn't write the, plug in to computer first, information on the monitors. Would save a bunch of wasted effort. Glad they worked after all. Glad to see bare shelves. So much room in that emergency shed.

@TheUltimateRecycler 21 день назад

Yep, it would have been sensible to have a notice on the monitor! I wonder how many got thrown out because people didn't know!

@uewepuep 9 дней назад

Hey Mate. I bought the sony 17"! Seems great other than a little scratch.

@TheUltimateRecycler 8 дней назад

Hey Dan, that's great. Sorry I was a little vague in eBay messages - they don't like people dealing without them getting their fees! 🤣

@EmeraldHill-vo1cs 16 дней назад

Yeah, used same scouring pad on pidgeon crap on outside house window, and its scratchy stuff. Left permanent mark. Also dont put anything cept soapy rag on any screens,crt,lcd or led.

@TheUltimateRecycler 15 дней назад

Very scratchy stuff indeed! Thanks for the advice 👍

@deankdx 23 дня назад

could you touch on what's needed to test these monitors at some point also, do they just need the VGA cord and power or is it some other cable i'd need an ancient computer to run (My old laptop still has a VGA output). I'm sure i've seen CRT monitors thrown out in the past but not in recent years, (i did pick up an iMac G3 recently though after seeing Ewaste Ben mention they were collectable/have value).

@TheUltimateRecycler 21 день назад

All three monitors I tested just had a VGA cord and the power cord - no other inputs. I have more monitors deep in the shed and I think some of them are older monochrome ones!
