Daughter requested a spatula made from a cast iron pan. So I made one. She got the idea from a TicTok video: @redbird_knives.

I'm working on a 1975 VW Bus and I needed to buy an angle die grinder so instead of going to Harbor Freight, I decided to spend a bit more money and get an Ingersoll Rand. Right out of the box it had a problem.

My 12 year old Lincoln Weld Pak finally just quit. I've been looking a multi-process inverter machines for a while and this was about the only one I could afford. Well justify since I don't make an income off welding. Keep in mind I'm not a welder and the welds in this video and the very first 4-5 weld I made with this machine.

I was pretty busy last year and I didn't keep up on my riding mower maintenance. This year I did a full service and was in for a surprise when I inspected the mower deck. It was so bad I decided to try out my new needle scaler and so if it would work.

This pen was made with Bethlehem Olive Wood - From Bethlehem, The Holy Land. The Olive Wood Tree is a subtropical, broad=leaved, evergreen tree, which has edible fruit. The tree ranges in height from 10-25 feet or more and has numerous branches. In October, the trees are pruned and the wood is sold to craftsman. Many of these trees are over 300 years old and some have been growing since the time of Christ. No trees were damaged or destroyed during the process of harvesting the Olive Wood.

've had a Delta 46-460 wood lathe for 7 months now and I've turned dozens of things from spinning tops to bowls. This video addresses two questions: 1. How is the unit holding up? 2. Would I buy another one? Watch the video and find out. Leg Kit Upgrade Video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WwHcUDF2Cpk&t=343s

I decided that I know enough to hurt myself so I should take a class before I wind up in the emergency room.

We bought our pontoon boat used and it has a few issues. One of which was the live well was being used as a storage locker. The wife and I like to catch catfish and we want them as fresh as possible so an operational live well would be great.

Just replace both.

The shop in my southern location is only 75 square feet so I added casters to my Delta 46-460 Wood Lathe so I can take it outside and use it. The problem is I have steps to deal with and the lathe is just too awkward for steps. Also my dog is getting pretty old so anything I can do to help her out, I will. So I need to make a ramp. I've never made a ramp and I also want to use materials on hand. That will help de clutter my small space and keep me from going out into the public.

I wanted to make a few stocking stuffers for the grandkids so I decided (wife's idea) to make some spinning tops. Most don't work right, but a couple work really well. Lathe Delta 46-460

The tongue weight of my boat is a bit too much for the Safari. I thought about coil over springs, but the cost for an adjustable set was just too much so I decided with the tried and true air shocks.

It time to winterize the hot tub and head south. I was hoping to be able to blow the pumps out, but I couldn't get the shop vac hose in a position to get a good angle.

My 1997 GMC Safari will crank but not start in cold weather. Since it just started getting cold, it's time to see if we can figure this out. Since we had to wait for parts and cold weather, it took a couple of weeks to make this video. Which is why I kept repeating the myself. Sorry. I also kept forgetting what I paid for the parts so here is the information: Crankshaft Position Sensor, which I kept calling a "crankshaft positioning sensor": $11.99 Ignition Coil: $18.70 Both were purchased from Amazon (Not a Sponsor) The photo of the 1997 GMC Safari is from an ad in AutoTrader

I need to replace the exterior kitchen vent on my 5th wheel which is old, yellow and cracked. I've never done it before, so let's figure it out. Here is the butyl tape I used: Dicor BT-1834-1 1/8" x 3/4" x 30' Butyl Seal Tape

Cold weather coming in and I need to winterize the fifth wheel. I've winterized other RV's but not this one, so Let's figure this out.

This winter I decided to pull most of the batteries from my vehicles and put together a battery charging station

While washing the van, the glass on the driver's side mirror blew off. So let's figure out how to replace it.

I don't use my ATV in the winter so to minimize start up issues in the spring I winterize it.
