@@Dirtmonkey You should get a pack of them and hand them out to your crew. Like I said, use a pencil because you can erase so it can last a loner time. Big Fan of your channel.
@@Dirtmonkey they are a Tacoma WA based company, it rains a lot. They supplied our units with all sorts of good stuff for the field. Definitely a good pickup.
PLEASE KEEP DOING THESE VIDEOS!!!! I am a locksmith and that RhinoCart you showed a vid or two back is gonna save me having to hire an extra hand while moving safes!!!!
If you've got another person you can't beat the shoulder dolly at Lowes. It's like 50 something dollars. Don't get the cheap ones. Me and my brother-in-law carried a 450 pound engraving machine up steps and into the house with ease.
I love the look of those RhinoCarts too. I can't remember if I saw Dirt Monkey's feature on them, but probably so. He's such a resource for these shows. The Flex-Sign USA folks should send a half dozen of their signs across for plowing season. Hard to imagine that sort of publicity not taking them to the next level. Those signs are lit!
I can appreciate the quick coupler guy... I did commercial pool plumbing for 10 years out of high school back in 03. That would have saved a bunch of time.
yep, that was actually the only item in the video that i thought was really an item that would work great. Those pool manifolds are always getting replaced from a broken or stripped ring. Homeowners are not very easy on their equipment.
Talk about 'can't believed that happened' moment....went to Menards to get parts to fix exact manifold. I got a new ring at pool supply store before the weekend. Triton sand filter Pentair multiport valve. Snapped lower collar. A 2" union collar will not work.
Thank you for doing this. It's super important to give some exposure to small businesses and inventors and you are one of the very few to do so. Kudos to you for doing this !!!
Those Rite in the Rain notebooks were almost standard issue on the flight lines when I was in the AirForce (03-11). The attendant didn't say it, but if you combine those with Fisher pens... You can write perfectly legible notes even if it's soaked in JP8 and hydraulic fluid. And those FlexSafe signs have me wondering about all the possibilities for them.
I used write in rain when I was learning to grease monkey around on every thing from farm equipment to Hondas. It standard equipment in a serious shop of any kind especially one with common sense. Bic pens are a must tho...they work when wet also.
How was that barricade not already invented!?! I can see that becoming standard on tow trucks, emergency vehicles etc. a barrier is so much more effective than cones or flairs.
Yeah they are fantastic . I bought one several years ago to clear our bathtub drain , wow was it gross ! I'm quite sure it had never been cleaned in the 50 years of this houses existence . Only downside to them is they are a one and done .
@@The05Phatboy or even a rock would do for smart ones right brother 😂 but these ultra legends needs to prove something that yesss Pandemic was a very good option to erase useless pinheads like these
@@The05Phatboy block of wood, linemen pliers a pair of side cuts so many things in your tool belt that will work just fine I don't use my tape or knife
The road closed barrier is fantastic. I work for a public utility and we lug heavy stands and signs around every day. We have to then put 4 to 6 cones on either side and people run them over. This takes up less space than our signs by themselves. Super quick deployment. Can we change the sign out? From road closed to Sidewalk closed or even Detour with arrows? This would be amazing to have.
@@Grubbet We offer sandbags to go along with the units for extra protection! But while no certified wind test has performed, a prototype was tested in an U.S. Air Force contractor’s wind tunnel and met their standards!
@@jeremynguyen2346 I did it for 4 years and I tell ya, not the best paying gig but you work hard and make foreman it get better. it’s hard work out in the heat long hours but beats any inside job. I work in a steel mill making 3x what I did well into the 6 figures but I miss landscaping everyday.
Great video. Some things some of us don't think about, the write in the rain, I've been using for 25+ years since I joined the military. Always available at all military exchanges, but I didn't realize it's not a well marketed product to the civilian markets. Keep up the great work.. looking for that hammer add on for sure!
That waterproof paper is actually amazing. It's amazing what some people come up with. Mike's fittings is crazy too I've had to replace $200 in material because of one screw fitting breaking.
the waterproof paper is also the paper they use in semiconduction cleanrooms only they use bleu coloured paper so its noticable for the cleanroom police that u use the correct paper
I know one thing, when Stan does these videos There may be one or two companies that I would say are great at selling their product. In other than that those people are horrible at promoting their product. Great video Stan! Some pretty cool products!
@@roberthemsath6602 think a lot of it comes when people aren't at all good in front of a camera. I had a friend with the funniest sense of humor, always told the best jokes... but someone brings out a camera phone or something and he just kinda freezes up.
Great video man, I really appreciate your presentation style; all content, no fluff. Less than 12 minutes and you showed 12 innovative inventions. Most RU-vidrs would waste 5-10 minutes per item.

If the rivets in the collapsable road sign, are galvanized, or stainless, this would be needed to make the product great. Usually the weak link, is steel rivets, rusting, and the holes they are in, rusting, and tube failure. Especially on the bottom, with wet sandbags constantly on them.
Rite in the Rain is extremely popular in the military. A lot of guys get out and wonder why it never caught on everywhere else. I would say most things the military accomplishes nowadays started on someone's rite in the rain notebook. A lot of missions, casevac, fire missions, serialized inventory, and letters home.
I wasn't that weasel for cleaning the vacuum. I hate doing that because it's a pain. I love those road signs. Even construction ahead would be nice when we are doing loader work on the side of the road.
I work for the Street department in my local city, those road close barriers are sweet. Those would be way nicer to use than the big heavy bulky ones we have to block off roads. Would be nice to have abounch of those, especially to have different writing on them besides road close. Like right or left lane closed.
Those Rite in the Rain products are everywhere in the military. I was pretty well convinced when I did the demonstration at an expo and was writing on the paper underwater in a small tank.I was 100% sold when I sat in the jungle in Belize in pouring rain with my Rite in the Rain notebook and pen and took notes for a combat order no problem. Pretty sure I still have that book around somewhere.
We do offer sandbags that go along with the unit if needed. But we did actually have a prototype tested in a US Air Force contractor's wind tunnel and it met their standards!
In my line of work, the foldable caution signs are of most interest. I have cones, barrels, and large orange mesh signs, with cross braces I made, and rebar to keep upright. These are great.
@@Dirtmonkey Actually, could put a screen on them ,as a guard. Broke my second window in 31 yrs , just before xmas, grinding stumps. These may work good.
The reason you use orange barrels is because they are hard to move. The 5 lb barriers advertised here would blow away if a large vehicle drives past them.
@@darrenanderson2895 These are actually more durable in the wind than you would think. We offer sandbags to go along with the units for extra protection! But while no certified wind test has performed, a prototype was tested in an U.S. Air Force contractor’s wind tunnel and met their standards!
The Rite in the rain folks are Golden. They have been HUGE supporters of US Military it is incredible. Their products are Awesome. Great for law Enforcement, Contractors, mechanics, outdoor sports enthusiasts, anyone who needs to write or note anything in outdoor or dirty environments.
Once I would have thought that the thing for helping pull nails out would be a good thing, then I learnt that a decent hammer will grip a nail anywhere on the nail not just the head of the nail, and when it starts slipping on the nail you can sharpen the hammer to grip again 👍🏻
Okay - That gator garage thing looks really cool! My only hang up for that, is those magnets will probably attract a lot of cutting / grinding metal shavings. Otherwise super neat product!
That bouncing squirrel toy is awesome. Looks like a lot of fun for us humans too. Kind of like rock skipping. My lab was in great shape at 14 too. We have a private trail and river access, so we would take a daily walk and he would swim almost everyday. Cold or hot, rain or shine, he couldn’t wait to swim. I would put a harness and long rope on him at times in case the current was too fast. Made it to 18, no weight or joint problems, even being huge, 125lbs lean, for a lab. He was an obese 155 when we got him. Lived in a house in the suburbs with no exercise. He would flop down exhausted after 5 minutes just leisurely walking at first. Miss him every single day.

The first one is a great idea, I live that they themselves invented it. But carpenters use a block of wood. But hey good for them, I hope there successful
I like that first one. Just a couple weeks ago, I was using my hammer to pull some large, spiral-shank nails and actually broke the head off the fiberglass handle. It was an old hammer, but still took alot of force to break it off. One of those would have been nice.
Love these videos because the people are the one that design ,built poured there hearts into a dream. Also the stuff is pretty neat. Happy New Year Stan, family, & staff
I used "Rite in the Rain" mini sheets to record info while on recon missions in Vietnam. The pages were matted for no glare.They also produce Field Books for Land Surveyors (old school). I have dated myself.
