How to field strip James Bond's first gun. This is a Beretta 418 that has seen a long life, even longer than James Bond's 418. Intro music: http://www.bensound.com

I sharpen the mower blades on the JD 455 for the first time since I bought it. With over 1000 hours, I am bound to find something interesting. Intro music: http://www.bensound.com

Part 2 of how to keep your garage cool. With the combination of ideas in part 1 and part 2 I was able to keep my garage around the outside temp, even with the afternoon sun bearing down on my garage door. It gets a little cool in the winter, but luckily I have very short and mild winters. Intro music: http://www.bensound.com

Nice trick to let the summer heat escape from your garage. FYI: My garage door was facing the afternoon sun so my garage became a solar oven every afternoon. This allowed me to drop the temp by at least 20 degrees.

Ever needed to cut a nylon rope without it fraying. Dad came up with a good way for us to do just that.

Dad needed a better way to organize and hang his shackles. We came up with a rope looped over the 2x4 joists. This works well because the location can be changed easily.

Short video describing how to adjust valves on John Deere 455 diesel Yanmar engine. The book doesn't tell what to remove to perform the valve adjustment, so I wanted to show you.

My buddy bought an ATN X Sight II HD 5-20 and brought it to my house so I could do the unboxing. I give real thoughts as I really see this for the first time. There is also some video from the scope itself at the end of this video. I was impressed at how well the mic picked up even at 50 yards away. Intro music: http://www.bensound.com

After trying multiple cleaners to get my boat propeller clean, I found something that works wonders and wanted to share this trick with y'all. Best of all what I'm showing you is my favorite kind of product - cheap! This didn't even require any elbow grease! Music: https://www.purple-planet.com

I purchased a project boat from a government auction and have gotten myself into a mess with this. I sent my wife up to check it out and she told me it was bad, but I didn't realize how bad it really was. The wiring is bad, the gelcoat is scratched up, the waterline and below is full of deposits from the water that are nearly impossible to clean off. However, there is a shiny side to this project - it was repowered with a much bigger outboard and for the price, I couldn't pass it up. I bought this boat for the motor and that's about the only thing that's good on it unfortunately. The hull is a Trophy 1903 Center Console. Maybe I can rig it up for fishing, or maybe I can just get some things working and resell it to try to make a bit of money for other projects, or maybe for an upgrade. Time will tell what is to become of this boat, but for now I've got to get it running well and I want to spend some time playing on it.

Getting some much needed yard work done on the new house. This house hasn't been cared for in the last 3 years and it's very evident outside. Just trying to mow is a challenge for the old John Deere 455. There are rocks which are hidden by the chest-high grass we are trying to avoid, plus saplings we need to cut as we find them. The boys find themselves a tree that's grown up they want to keep. The Kubota RTV x1140 is also needed for this to pick up trash and brush. I really need much larger equipment for a task this big, but I'm making due with what I've got. We rescue a turtle from the field and relocate him to the creek on the property.

In this video I show how to clean an Abu Garcia baitcaster reel. This is a very old 5000 C that has caught a lot of fish over the years. I take this noisy reel and make it a little less noisy. This is my friend's grandfather's reel and he took this on a fishing trip after I worked on it - he said it casts further than it has ever cast. I'm no expert in this, but with just a few basic tools, you too can do the same thing if you have the patience.

I demonstrate how to repair a hole in a tire with basic tools. I'm not sure what caused this one because what caused the hole was out by the time I noticed I had a flat. I assume it was most likely a nail. This is a repair anyone can do and save some money.
