How to Rotate Your Tires - Save $1,000 Per Year!
This is a good video, but I think it could be even better if there was a bit more showing and a bit less telling. That might help you gain more followers
Please consider not smacking as much. Kind of hard to listen to. Started off great. I would say the details are great but it still could be shortened to maybe 20-30 min. Probably help the channel grow. Keep growing....

I love how we can use all the deck furniture all year long and feel like we have a whole new room for the house!! ❤
Looks great! Way to recapture summertime outdoor space for the winter!
This thing is awesome.
Thanks. Do you have a big ramp to get that blue car up there?
@@ramonhamm3885 it's a car lift haha
@@ryanscottlifts Oh ok.😆The supports look so plain they don't look like they have a mechanism to lift it, is there a hydraulic pump and then a mechanical lock to keep it at the top?
@ramonhamm3885 it's a Tuxedo 4 post car lift. Has hydraulic pump and yes, it has locks
Good idea! Look like you might have had a white Christmas, it was just starting.

Which type of screws are you using? They look like drywall screws. I hope not.
@@fboucher98 haha I am using framing/decking screws with the torx heads
i don’t know alot about electricity obviously, does it mater which ends you solder together on the cut side (where both wires are cut)
@elaynn6633 these are not polarized so no. But in most electrical applications, it absolutely matters.
@ Thank you!
Thanks for sharing this, I picked up some nuggets as I just started my process this winter on our basement. Going with the rigid foam as well....more $$ but think its worth it in energy / comfort savings as well as time.
@@billnolan9781 awesome. Goodluck with your project! Glad this was helpful.
Am I correct you don't leave them up all year round? Why not leave them up all year round?
@mj4208 no I take them down. Leaving them out all year would result in a bunch of broken christmas lights that I'd have to replace anyway. Sun and weather destroys stuff!
Really good video man fuck everyone telling you you’re talking a lot …. Not everyone is a UA-cam creator influencer that edits 1 millions times…. Most people That are in the trades and work with their hands appreciate the level of detail in an unscripted video like this !
@slavikborisov9176 thanks man! Appreciate that. Yea I don't plan on being a full time youtuber haha. This is to help people and for my kids to look back on one day.
Meh, no need to service the hvac unit....wall it in!!!
@@MrMurph111 haha!
@ i figured you went back and added one! Lol
I just go out and buy brown extension cord. They sell them in all different sizes. This way is a potential fire hazard. And the last thing you want to have for the holidays is your house burned down
@Miidaguy1 regular extension cords will not plug into Christmas lights, and if you file the polarized side down to make them fit, that is much more of a fire hazard. Also, Christmas lights are sold as outdoor and have open ends exposed to the weather.
Very good work my man💪🏾
Appreciate it!
Have you ever overloaded the fuse in the male plug ?
@rebelderf only 1 time but I had about 1,500 lights going through 1 line. Just replaced the fuse ran some more extension cords
I think my question relates: what’s the limit to how many can be strung together? I thought it was 3.
@kimberlyshaw5778 well, going off the box, it'll tell you have my strands you can string together. In my practical experience, I have been able to do more. From a disclaimer perspective, go off what is advised on the box haha.
Why don't you just leave the old lights the way they are and just bury it all under the mulch?
@@laurawilliams2790 bc it's about 3x the size to store at the end of the season. And this looks a lot cleaner and I am OCD haha
@@ryanscottlifts LOL I wish you were my neighbor. You'd have a field day in my garage!
impressive to have the courage to build this yourself but most impressive is your work ethic and your positive attitude since NOBODY else was helping you not wife ( understand u have young ones) or family member/ hired friend)
your wife should be grateful with your hard work n perseverance and all the money u saved allowing you to do other things and cool your video ing the experience so your kids can appreciate their father's hard work at a later age and great example for them as young adults themselves 1 day
@@robd4526 appreciate the words! And totally agreed. Hoping the kids re-watch these one day
Yay im sure home owners insurance covers that electrical fire
I just leave the dead bulbs and use the strand as an extension cord. The rest of that is too much to be bothered with. Merry Christmas
Nice job....studs not beams
@@johnpandolfino8663 thanks!
One way is to use a Dremel to grind down the fat side of a polarized extension cord to make it fit into the Christmas wire lights.
@cjalexanderjr8811 I have actually done that, but generally speaking I wouldn't recommend it. It's actually cheaper to buy a brand new set of 50 bulb incandescent Christmas lights and just do what I do in my video. I think a 50 bulb strand is like $3 vs ruining an extension cord.
@@ryanscottlifts What I do is after grinding it down, I put a notch in what was the fat side in case I use the extension cord for something else.
Swinging the camera around. Bye 🤮
Thank you for the info and for making this video! 👏👏👏
@@juliekoester7776 my pleasure!
What a great idea! Thanks 😊
I am in shock at how easy this is. I just tossed several strings. ugh. Thank you for this amazing tip.
@@burningcopper very welcome!
Thank you for sharing this VERY CLEVER idea and it's so much fun to read the comments. It's like one clever idea leads to another and so on.
@@Leeny017 agreed! Crazy how many views and comments this got haha
@ Just wondering, have you ever tried that “as seen on TV” Christmas light tester/fixer gun thing? My son wouldn’t let me buy one at the second hand store and it still bugs me that I didn’t get it. Are they a waste of money?
@Leeny017 I haven't but I honestly wouldn't waste your money. Stores are also getting rid of the option to even buy incandescent lights. Home Depot this year was 75% LEDs. They are much more expensive, but are "steady lit" which means when 1 bulb goes out, the rest still stay on. I have started slowly changing over to LEDs.
We could simply remove the fuse from the little compartment in the plug housing. It would continue to act as an extension cord.
@@cairnheden8745 not exactly. The fuse acts like a grounding. If you remove the fuse, it won't work. You'd need to install a solid piece of metal that's a thick enough gauge it wouldn't cause a fire. Honestly, I wouldn't recommend that. Someone else posted you could just get new electrical ends to wire/solder in.
@ryanscottlifts thank you for correcting me. I knew I should have researched it. This is a good lesson about posting to social media. It's good of you to let me know!
Dude, you are great at explainingg stuff. Well done, nice video.
@@mattproulx4516 thank you!
Very, Very, Very Good Video👏🏼👏🏼! U just talk a lil fast, lol. I like the idea of makin extention as short as needed. Cuz, c'mon, 1 less reeeally long thing 2untangle saves frustration. Plus shorter cords are ez 2wind back up. & THX 4Explaining & 'Remindin'(me) bout the polarization!! & anytime we can RRR (recycle, reduce &reuse) is great!! Wish this was still taught in schools & prizes or sumthin 4Upcycling!! Can U share info on the Tools & Products U used tho, plz?? THX!!
@@rosemarytafoya4999 send me an email and I'll see if I can find some links for you!
You know Mother Earth is benefiting from you. Thank you for this
@@MissMarshall for sure!
Every American needs to learn how to do this and recycle to save our planet. We are a bunch of lazy consumers with no handy skills. Plus this saves us money as well. I’ve been trying to repurpose as much waste as I can because some things just make sense to repurpose. I can understand some things are only meant to be used once but sometimes we got to be creative and do our part.
Thank you!!!
@@jw6180 for sure!
Next time just unscrew the schrader valve, the tires go flat within 5 seconds. Thanks for the video!
@@fern9234 honestly.....genius lol. Now I feel like an idiot. I knew that too, just didn't even think about it!
Did it come with a charger? how do you charge it?
@vickibaird6824 it's a USB Type C chartering cord. It came with a cord. You just need the USB wall charger. Just use your cell phones charger
Brilliant idea! Thank you, and Happy 2025!😊
@@alana7228 Happy New Year!
Thanks. Good tip!
I’ll have to do this!
Great video! I have a question, hoping someone will be able to help. 7:53 1. Knocking off the concrete knots with chisel and sealing the holes? When you removes the knots from concrete walls, do you have to seal the holes with a hydraulic cement or concrete repair as those knots are due to a result of covering the concrete metal rods/bracing? If you don’t cover it up, does it not result in water leakage? 2. Is it worth to dry lock or apply some sort of a water proof paint after smoothing the concrete? I am not going to cover the basement concrete wall but looking to smooth and paint it for an industrial open basement look. Please share your thoughts.
Hey none of that is necessary. The knots just pop off very easily and there are no holes left. If you have holes, you got a bigger problem with the quality of your foundation! It is at least 1 foot thick concrete so knocking those off is an after thought.
Awesome video - great explanantions
Appreciate it!
Great idea! I have a row of blow molds that no longer had the lightbulbs, so I used string lights inside them. I will keep all my old string light sets now so they no longer have a trail of lights from one to another. Thanks!
black tape works and you dont gotta do all that
