Hey Cody! Can you try the Fanttik cordless air compressor? There is a full sized and a mini. Curious how handy it is in a real world application.
I would add a can of electrical parts cleaner, for when you need to clean plastics where the brake cleaner would damage.
Please take the time to go and do what you love. I know I would and so many others would appreciate it if you took a day to go fishing by ur self just you and the fish.
Do you have a link?
I'd add the WD Specialist Degreaser product. Great cleaning product, and super safe.
Fun fact: so I work for the largest automotive glass installation company in the world, and cleaning the glass for preparation is the most important step to get a good seal on any vehicle. We use a foaming glass cleaner that is made by the makers of ‘Sprayway’, who hold the patent on creating a formula for a foaming glass cleaner. They literally make the solution that goes into the Amsoil glass cleaner cans Cody is using, except the Sprayway cans at your local grocery, convenience, hardware, or auto parts store is roughly 1/3 the price. And it’s the same stuff. Amsoil is a good brand but I know there are lots of people out there, like myself, who can appreciate getting the exact same results for a fraction of the price.
I was gonna say that looks an awful lot like the classic worlds best glass cleaner, you have confirmed my suspicions!
I guess they must still have an active patent or no other company can quite get there because I haven't come across a similar product that foams in that specific way, yet doesn't stain or streak terribly 🤔 Every time I'm at a hardware store, supply store etc. that sells it and see someone reach beside and grab something like windex or ammonia glass cleaner I just quietly watch in disappointment 😆
Where's your son?
@@gravitys_fallen2171 what
@@B33fJ3rk33 do you have any suggestions for a glass sealant for cars?
@@backyardworker for cosmetic and water repellancy? Griot’s Garage glass sealant. Works wonders on filling in microscopic pits and makes any piece of glass extremely resistant to water. If you are talking about an industrial grade sealant to adhere a windshield or back-glass onto a pinch weld, DOW ExpressBP is great.
This message brought to you by your friendly neighborhood Amsoil dealer.
That's funny 😂🤣
Turns out he’s the dealer
Hahaha!!!!! So true!!!
Talk about a hustler
Shh! *looks around* Yeah, got that Amsoil. Two sprays for a dollar.
One thing Ive learned from you and try to emulate is your care and maintenance of everything you own. I think that getting lost in the care and maintenance of things is truly fulfilling and an essential aspect of enjoying life. It may seem dull and boring to some, but cleaning the grime off of something or sanding and oiling a tool handle or cleaning a pair of leather work boots is a very satisfactory feeling and it gives you a fresh jolt of pleasure every time you look at your well kept possession.
+1 on this. I learned early in my teens that keeping your tools and belongings organized and clean is very satisfying.
One might say it gives you the fizz…
@@chriscroley9279 I agree but it's impossible once you have a garage to then downsize with intentions to get a garage. It's been one of the most disorganized disasters I've ever had to deal with. My tools are scattered in bags among vehicles and in tubs. Thankfully I'm in the right direction to have a 32x48 shop built. I've dealt with this for going on 6 years with this agony.
same goes for cleanup at the end of a work day to keep your shop tidy and keep the gradual disorder that wants to creep in at bay
As I see other men posting tips, here’s one: always open valves all the way and then 1/4 back. This way when someone tries to open it they feel that it is already open, and won’t damage the seals by applying too much torque. (English is not my first language so) I hope this made sense! Thanks for the video’s Mr W, all the best. Love the community that has been established here.
Good tip!
I've habitually done this for years, also keeps the tensions off the valve stem. But it bit me a few years ago when I shut down the gate valve between my home heating oil tank and furnace to replace the inline filter. All went well, spun the gate valve back open, then cracked it back a quarter turn. Well, a month later I couldn't figure out why my furnace was running rough, sounded terrible, tech was pouring over the whole thing couldn't figure out what was wrong until he found that gate valve almost closed. The vibration from the furnace had slowly spun it down until it was starving the blower.
Yeah. That is a good one. You don't have to go a full quarter turn usually but at least a little bit. Even temperature change can cause valves to jam when they are all the way open.
I was taught this except for gas bottles. Like propane, acetylene, butane, ect. Only open those a one full turn, since their pressure is regulated down right away one full turn is plenty and it's way faster to turn off if something gets out of control.
Yes, I always do this. Do you do it for propane tanks as well? (your English is great)
Best explanation I've heard to support a case "I don't know man, it'll make you happy". Brilliant!
When I was still working in the wrecking yard in Portland, I used alot of Amsoil Power Foam. It worked good for freeing up stuck engine valves and removing carbon build up in the cyl head that was so bad at times you couldn't get engines to fully turn over without locking up. It was a great engine degreaser also when I had to get a engine out the door quick and didn't have time to use the Storm Vulcan parts washer. I liked their synthetic grease also.
That's a nice cart configuration. I got a small makerspace, can't compare it to that nice big space. A cart won't work in my situation. I keep everything in clear plastic crates I bought at a cheap store. Super nice with folding attached lids. I got one with safety gear, so different styles of eye protection, hearing protection, masks, gloves. I got 30 crates in a rack, all labelled, super nice. Then under the workbenches are the bigger ones. My workshop is 3 by 6 meters, or about 10 by 20 feet. Everything has to be compact. If I need anything, I just grab the crate, get the stuff out, go to work. But still enough room to build custom bikes, knives, furniture, all sorts of stuff. You don't need much room if you organize.
take a look at the Ikea Raskog cart (better than the knockoffs) it's less than half of the footprint of the Blue-Point, even a small space can benefit from a cart where everything you need is right there ready to go
I sometimes use an old Muffin Tin to separate nuts and washers and different things. The one thing that really saves me a lot of time is I will put the socket I used in with the bolts or nuts. Having it right there and only having to guess sizes one time is really nice.
Scammer below. Never message anyone in telegram or what's app.
Cody: I enjoy your content and wisdom. I have been impressed by how you have developed your son and treat your family. You are a good role model for us all. Thanks
I watched your Captain Obvious and fully agree with your point that men need to: 1) learn how to work and 2) need to have multiple skills. You may have addressed this before but it would be useful to our young men to have a series on what basic competencies they need to acquire to be self sufficient. Good road map for us fathers too. Based on my watching over last 6 months, you have quite a few videos on this but a good summary series would be useful. Godspeed and be safe . Ian Worden
Cody, Congrats on 2 Million Subs !!! I'm not a religious person, but your family is always in my prayers!
I like the video, I'd recommend adding a grit guard to the 5 gal bucket to help separate dirt out of the water when washing vehicles
Carpet on the tool cart was my favorite part. That seems like a really wonderful upgrade for any tool cart or even a tool box... if you're lucky enough to have a quality metal tool box. xD
There's a crazy amount of material in this video. Every tool matters, all these things can help anyone, and you cut yourself off going down a rabbithole of experience that you possess.I love watching these videos because it's like learning how to really prepare to fix and maintain anything in my life.
I’m glad to see the old cart is still being put to use. It’s been around a long time.
Wow, welcome to AMSOIL! Thanks for helping AMSOIL get the word out about the highest quality lubricants around! Good luck!
i would like to just thank you wranglerstar for teaching me as ive grown how to be a responsible homeowner and a good man
I love every single video he does. Such a caring and helpful man. WRANGLERSTAR FOR PRESIDENT!
Great stuff! I recommend the Milwaukee permanent markers. They last probably 3-4x longer than the sharpees and will write on basically anything, even if it's dirty. I bought a set a year ago and am still using all four!
These videos are honestly super helpful. So excited to have my own shop soon
That silicone divider is an ice tray. I have several i use for large ice cubes.
My trick for streakless windows is just to use a humble microfibre cloth and soapy water followed by a rinse with clean water with a microfibre cloth. You technically don’t even really need the soapy water and the microfibre cloth will last year.
I have a hatred for carpet, not where it's supposed to be. My family loved using old 50's 60's carpet for everything once they outlived their life on the floor. Toolboxes, benches, shelves, random chunks for rugs.
Never again, I understand why you would like it though. I'm just traumatized on the inside from all of the old carpet so I can't do it haha
I think that red silicon tray is actually an ice cube tray. I have two of them except in black. Makes great large ice cubes and the silicon allows them to pop right out without breakage.
I also love seeing how you do to! Thank you! I’m gonna build a shop soon. Gonna look back on your content, but any future content on shop organization and layout for a professional homeowner would be appreciated.
That silicone tray is a whiskey ice cube tray I believe. Glue some magnets on the bottom for anti-spill.
You are now my official Amsoil dealer. I got my order in 2 days!
Seems like we didn't talk about Henry in years! I love your stories from him
The acid brushes make good small scrub brushes as well. Just cut the bristles off about 1/2 to 3/4 the way up and it makes them way more stiff.
I know in the past you have done a fair amount of videos on boots but now that you have had Nicks and Whites each for quite some time, would you mind making a video talking about the pros and cons of each from your experience?
That red silicone divider is a jumbo ice cube tray.
So glad I found your channel Cody, probably been subbed for at least 5 years now and I’ve learned so much. Enjoy your weekend
Awesome! Thank you!
Thank you for the content. That DuPont dry lube works great on power tools, saw blades especially to prevent build up, table saw tops etc. Of course I am on the west coast where that’s enough protection. East coaster probably need more.
Yet another great video. Thanks for always educating us.
I am happy to have the autumn shop videos back!
How do I miss your old wood shop days.
Little red silicone tray from your Dad is actually an ice cube tray. Looks like it would work great for holding little parts!
One application for dry lube is the weather stripping around the openings on you vehicle. Just a tip from a professional vehicle owner/factory certified technician.
Been using Amsoil products since the 70’s… it’s all good stuff.
Man excellent cart set up! Been a dealer mechanic for 20 years and the service cart is the way to go!
@Tommy Ealey man that stings! ... are u like a kid on Xmas eve right now? Lol
little tip for loctite just remember “red your dead” when using small screws
I deliver once a week to UPS Portland, OR from Indy. I think about Wranglerstar channel and Mt Fuji every time. ❤️
I’m not a Amzoil guy, but I am certainly a Maxima guy. Love their products! Run by the Lechein family with a MX racing pedigree in Santee CA. Their oils, greases, cleaners etc. are the bees knees for the power sports industry.
I've looked and looked and looked, and I haven't been able to find anything about being a professional homeowner except by you.
If you have a bike with an aluminum frame use that Brillo pad on your frame where your boots rub. Will look brand new 🤙🏼
I just handled my first axe head today. Did it perfectly thanks to you.
I've never had one of those magnetic trays that didn't eventually have the magnet fall off the back. I've used just about every adhesive to try to reattach but they always break free again. I ended up drilling and bolting them together. They HAVE saved my clumsy self from losing numerous fasteners to the black hole that exists somewhere on my workshop floor!
Try an elastopolymer E6000 or gorillas version along with clear Lexel, lexel sticks to everything... or even better some loctite polyurethane construction adhesive, the "3x blah blah blah" is the best version for the money/versatility... The basic stuff doesn't flex well and the higher end overpriced stuff is only useful for immediate tack, not ultimate strength. Happy adhering 😉👍
@@berryreading4809 unfortunately I've tried gorilla glue and PL Premium (both max and 3). As well as T-88. I have probably 4 or 5 of those trays from various brands over the years. Relatives consider them an easy gift idea. I'm just hard on them. They bounce around in toolboxes and bags, trucks, tractors, etc and eventually break, or get stuck to and pulled from different components so many times it eventually breaks free. I'm sure temp expansion and contraction in the tray doesn't help.
@@gexploits not gorilla glue, gorillas version of E6000 (similar to shoegoo) Lexel doesn't have the ultimate shear strength, but has incredible bond strength and sealant properties, honestly better than E6000 although not rated for the same industrial applications... But as you say nothing beats mechanical fastening at the end of the day 😉👍 also my favorite fastener trays lately have become the silicone style collapsible with embedded magnets, both kinds have their place, but for my service boxes/any travel tool boxes I have the collapsible trays are invaluable... They too though have a weak point across most brands, the top reinforcement ring tends to separate or fail after extended use, no great fix that will ever make it like new around chemicals and oil, so I usually rotate those to the "projects taken apart that I'll definitely get around to fixing later" shelves 😄🤦♂️ One day I'll have the time, maybe after I'm dead I'll get started on it 🤣
I like that the magnet separates from the bowl. Makes it easy to empty the bowl.
@@stephenkennett9813 yes, often in the middle of a field repair
Incase anyone wants that silicone divider, it’s actually a large ice cube tray. I’ve got a few for making, well ice
Bought a new truck this year. Ford f150 with the 3.5 ecoboost and I've swapped it over to signature series amsoil and so far very happy.. really love the amsoil products
Love this channel! A true teacher
that red thing you got from your dad is a 2-3 inch silicon ice tray i use those for my drinks
What’s with the scarf, we’ve been waiting for a video about it. Will you ever address it?
9:26 Famous incident of an airplane windshield coming off because the bolts were the right thread pitch and diameter, but the length was off by a centimeter or 2.
Literally found one of these carts 10 miles away after watching this. Offered him $75 and he took it! Ha thanks Cody!
I love mineral spirit. I keep it in a spray bottle and use it so much on many things daily.
I was wondering if it is not dangrous for health?
I recommend using 90% isopropyl alcohol or better. I always get 99%. Getting electronics grade IPA helps when cleaning electronics or when needing to drying out electronics.
That red divider is actually an ice cube tray for whiskey glasses! I have the same one
Your organization is very satisfying 😅
What is your recommended storage / travel bin?
You should put an Amsoil sticker on your cart. Is there an Amsoil emoji in our future?
Looking forward to the winter coming back, and all the adventures and jobs coming with it.
Everything you've said in this video is correct!! Absolutely! Great work. Thanks for sharing..
I've said for years that I consider shop chemicals to be as critical as tools. Glad to see your favorite shop chemicals since my preferences in this area are all different than yours.
What’s the deal with the handkerchief around the neck?
You should start your own show: A professional homeowner! With your own intro and treat it like a tv show, I think it would be a hit
You referred to the brake cleaner as carburetor cleaner. Are they the same thing?
Great video.
Please check out the harbor freight magnetic tool box organizers. I like them so much I give them as gifts to friends. They are very beneficial to the organization of your workspaces and boxes.
I love the gear videos, and it doesn't matter what kind of gear it is. Thanks for sharing.
Excellent video - thank you.
I buy WD -40 in gallon containers. There about $25 here in my part of Michigan. Pour some in a spray bottle.
Waaaaay cheaper then in cans and your not wasting it when you run out of propellant but still have the liquid in the can. And yes I know there is a way to repressurize them but what a pain. 🤪
Have a Jesus filled day everyone
Greg in Michigan
I’m pretty sure the silicone divider is actually a whisky ice cube set lol but it would make a great divider!
Thank you for the videos Cody.
I feel like I'm watching an Amsoil commercial
Amsoil is certain the best when they give your their products 😅
Never tried amsoil, might have to try it out.
Need to try Microfiber Madness wash mitts.
Can you go over all of your Milwaukee tools you bought and your opinion of them now that you’ve had them for a while?
How do you search the silicone applicator keeper?
Would you use mudslinger on your truck?
Can't figure out how to buy from wranglerstar any help much appreciated
Okay now you need to show us what you mean about catching fish with WD-40 😂😂🤔
Also another bonus with the carpet in there is little parts and bits don't roll around as much. I can't tell you how many times I've found the last screw I needed shoved into the corner of my cart.
Thanks for the lowdown Cody!
Great job .
That's actually a silicone ice cube tray for whiskey cubes. Super cheap on Amazon
hey,
doubt you'll answer, even so, if you see this I honestly enjoy your videos and don't know why I haven't subed sooner.
Just as a quick background i grew up in a christian environment. (I'm not anymore for various reasons)
I'm just curious if there was someone that lived his live as a moral man (not as a christian but similar principles) would he be someone that you could consider to be trusted and close to you?
Cody which one would your use for like hedge trimmers?
You can also get carts at harbor freight. I can tell you I own a Snap On cart and for the the normal home owner it will be fine for decades and you can probably buy 5 for a Snap On cost. I don't know what a Snap On us now but in thr late 80's I gave over 700.00 for mine if I remember correctly.
>$700 in the 80s!?!? What?!?! That's equivalent to over $2k today. That's insane. You'd have to be dropped on your head to buy that simple cart with some bent tubing and sheet metal pans for >$700 30+ years ago. I buy stupid expensive tools, but that's almost like snap on us using it to figure out who they can really sink their teeth into. If they buy that, snap on knows they'll buy ANYTHING.
I was just going to order the Amsoil glass cleaner, until I saw it was $65! Ouch!!
Good videos! Long time sub.. first comment. Bless your family, hope you’re safe and healthy. Respects
Why can't anyone reply to your snide comments? YOUR prize is still waiting in the exact same place!
Where did you get your shirt and what type of shirt is it? For example just a standard western shirt or is it an FR welding shirt?
Hey Cody my wife and I just bought a house that has Fireplaces through the house and has so many oak trees that need to be taken down. Can you do a Video on cutting and processing wood for storage. Would be great Thank you!
Hello Wranglerstar! Where did you get that shirt?
Good show !! Great products .
Is the mud slinger any good for motorcycles.
We get a lot of salt down over the winter which corrodes fasteners etc.
I use a product called ACF 50 which works well but is awful to clean off come springtime.
That silicone tray is an ice cube tray. We have 4 of them sitting in my freeze right now.
All of you lowly amateur homeowners can also use these or any other products not mentioned in this video. You don’t have to be a Pompous Professional Homeowner.
tfw I have to dedicate 10 minutes a day of my life to Wranglerstar because he's the best channel on YT and I can't not watch him
I thought everyone had a cart like that! Everything on it from glass cleaner to some wrenches. The fix-all cart!
A lot of guys swear by Amsoil transmission fluid swaps. Did you do that on your truck?
