Good news! The Devour sweeper may not actually be discontinued. It's not available for sale anywhere official, but Ryobi's website has it listed as "coming soon" to Home Depot. I don't know what coming soon means on a thing they've already been selling for years, but it's a glimmer of hope. www.ryobitools.com/products/details/33287175499
Oh, I thought this would be something about the Dacia Sandero
nice to see a new vid mate still love the intro! and im kinda still waitin for the mower vid , keep going bro love you
I don't know, I am still waiting for the second Buckaroo Banzai movie.
Looks like we got it in Canada this time already. I think they made it part of the ONE+ HP line this time
Hey Robert I have a question about the Yugo are you getting aftermarket parts are you getting parts set would come from the factory like New Old stock parts just wondering
"Anger Grinder" is definitely accurate
Yep. That is how I release my anger in my shop. I just edit that out of my videos.
Yes, I could do with getting one of those for the growlery (as seen in Bleak House by Dickens) I tend to call mine the angel grinder or the crap welding disguising tool.
I call it an angry grinder. That and nothing else
*aggressively grinds paint random car
@@soberhippie Angry grinders are truly terrifying things - I'm almost scared to touch mine again after I shattered a cutting disc the very first time I used it.
"it doubles as a heat pump"
I see why Alec likes you
I got it
I dunno, Alec may not like him anymore after the last video where he put LED replacement bulbs in his car designed for incandescent bulbs. 😋
@@mjc0961 TRUE
@@mjc0961 I did the same and if anything the LEDs have been brighter BUT this is the third set I bought, the first two were total garbage and either looked like side lights or were not even across the cluster. The third set do give a close enough to 360 effect so it works and bonus of that is it's not blinding because it doesn't have any that shine directly at the lens (which in my car is just coloured plastic, not fresnel lensed)
@@NaokisRC The main problem with LEDs usually isn't brightness but focus/aim. A lot of the times they end up blinding other drivers instead of properly focusing light on the road. Probably not as big a deal without the Fresnel lens and aiming it towards the back also helps a lot.
I love that "My other car is a Trabant" sticker on the Yugo.
I'd love to see that sticker if he ever gets a Lada.
@@Dcc357 Your wish is now one step closer to being granted!
I want to buy more tools Now
Well I certainly didn't expect to see you here. Why hello.
Wow! It's Plainly Difficult.
Maybe Robert is storing some plutonium in his shop. =D
U can never have to many
Just want to say. I love your videos.
Naturally. Exposure to tools stirs the primal urge to buy more tools. Bit too many times 💸
Does your currently sunny southeast corner of London have a Home Despot?
2:45 "My other car is a Trabant" cracked me up. Nice one.
That shirt is for sale.
If you don't get sponsored by Ryobi after this they are simply mad.
They probably don’t because what else could they provide him?
NOep htey are smart. WHy pays someone who advertise their tools for free ?
They're already benefiting immensely from this "discount tier" branding arrangement.
He is somewhat blunt about the shortcomings.
I see we have the same mantra of buying tools.
Step one: Buy a 10" angle grinder because you need to cut up two pavement slabs for the back yard.
Step two: Now you have a 10" angle grinder. Just in case you need it. You probably won't, except for those 1-2 times a year you need to cut someting slightly bigger. But you have it.
Yes, the whole "I need this specialized tool to make something not take an entire day or longer, so I bought it, used it for that one time, and now I have it in case I need it"
Same here
Rotary turkey carver
Given your prediliction for extremely odd machines, I'm surprised you haven't found yourself needing a set of Whitworth wrenches. Not quite metric, not quite SAE, ALL British!
And a set of Bristol wrenches!!
I have Whitworth tools for my Landy, it's a confusing version of Imperial
It's still measured using fractions of an inch (e.g. 1/4, 3/8) but the sizes are different. A 1/4" Imperial is different to a 1/4" Whitworth
@@lr_s3102 yes, I hate it, of course thanks to galvanic corrosion and the joys of British road salt they're all stuck anyway
@@lr_s3102 there’s a really easy method for dealing with the whitworth to imperial conversion for old British vehicles. Take all your whitworth wrenches, double the nominal size, next divide by 1.3, finally, take the wrenches and the Land Rover and throw them in the dumpster.
@@batterybuilding You are hilarious.
"Thank you for letting me ramble on about my tools for half an hour."
'Twas my pleasure. The video was the perfect length to go with lunch.
I actually really like that Milwaukee electric screwdriver. Makes assembling Ikea furniture a snap, among other things.
I prefer the 12v Bosch pocket driver, but they're both super useful
I bought the Black + Decker equivalent on a whim a while back, and it has proven surprisingly useful during an ongoing bathroom remodel--particularly when we decided to go with paneling that screwed to the wall, and the grown-up drill-drivers were punching the heads right through the paneling. :)
I agree, I have the same thing, as well as the Ryobi drills he has as well, and I find myself using the little Milwaukee for most just.. driving.. and the Ryobi for any actually drilling.
Ikea has those electric screwdrivers with in built torque limiters. Liked it, really simple tool, but was handy
I have a ryobi Screwdriver. It'd really really nice. The stupid wiring broke however and I had to solder in a new wire.
The 3D printer thing is spot on. You get one, have to justify buying it for the handful of things you initially got it for, make like 50 decorative prints with intermittent useful ones like conveniences and upgrades, and run out of things to print in 2-3 months until you either learn to make stuff or just say "ah to heck with it" and make more decorative stuff as desired. The new justification midway is all those filaments and colors. You can easily spend more than the printer on that.
As a 3D printer owner this is spot on. And I don't regret it a single bit!
I ran into a similar issue with stagnation and lack of knowledge in the 3d design area. Then I found the MPCNC and Nikodem Bartnik's dremel CNC and now my printer has been going non-stop printing parts for both of those machines. They both seem like a fairly inexpensive, next step on the cnc/3d printing journey.
It is a maker's best friend, and a maker of makers ;)
Same. What is worse is deciding you want to change the color of the mods you made. I went from Black to Blue to Orange. I recently got a Creality Halot-One resin printer and designed and printed a 2.5 inch duct to vent the fumes outside.
But now, he can design and 3D print some Aging Wheels doo-dads and sell them!
Wow. I wish I had known about those Bendpak things 20 years ago, and that I had the means to get a set now for my father, who will be 70 next year and could really use an alternative to the old floor-jack-and-jackstands shuffle every time he has to do something under a vehicle (which is often because he's that kind of guy).
Edit to add: Upon review, god damn. Sentence structure, what is it?!
I never thought i'd watch a half hour of a guy talking about his tools, but im happy i did
I know nothing about tools and yet somehow I still enjoy watching these videos
Thank you SO MUCH! I tweeted at you and you responded. Gave me info on tools. Then this wonderful thing came out and you’ve made my decisions MUCH easier. I’m so excited to do this brake job on my GF’s car. Thank you so much for your videos.
Why? Because, if Ryobi made a car, it would be powered by 30 drill batteries.
lol you reminded me of Rich Rebuilds doing an EV swap using batteries from Home Depot.
I think Robert still needs to sort out a replacement battery for the Wheego. Maybe the answer is to just use every Ryobi battery he owns :-)
@@MrDuncl He's got plans to use cells from one of his parts Codas
There is something very personal about going through another man's tools. Thanks for the tour.
about your free power supply. I've heard of this happening. An otherwise unscrupulous seller (or I suppose one trying to build some reputability), typically from China, will send unrequested items to an address, thus generating a verified delivery. This bumps them up on the Amazon foodchain. A couple years ago, there was a huge number of people talking about being sent packages of unrequested seeds. I guess they've moved on to other things.
This reminds me of a friend that was getting shipped random electronics from Amazon a while back. At one point she'd gotten an M.2 SSD which I think went for about 200 bucks for no clear reason, she didn't even have a computer to put it in at the time, eventually just sold it.
For those interested, the search term for this type of scam is "brushing".
This allows them to write their own review with verified purchase stamped on the review. Not a fan of amazon allowing the reviews to go unchecked as in positive reviews mentioning something not related to the product
Dropping literally everything to watch this now
now do it again!
Your tool collection has grown a ridiculous amount in the last few years. Bosch user here :)
Bosch is nice, and you can actually buy parts. I work at a hardware store, and Bosch machines rarely come in defective, but when they do, Bosch will actually repair then under warranty. Broken Ryobi tool on the other hand come in all the time, and are just thrown away. The quality is just too low imo.
As wonderful as your tool tour has been, I'm mostly intrigued by the paper hanging on the door at the 19:32 mark, where "Blink Blonk" is crossed out, but "Stance" and "Speedo" are still listed. I look forward to the video where you explore different stances, in a Speedo. Blink blonk, indeed. :)
I suspect that's the door to the Bus Dungeon so maybe that's Bus related?
I believe that's in reference to his Yugo. He fixed the turn signals (blink blonk) but still needs to adjust the front wheels (stance) and get the speedometer (speedo) working.
From fixing his Yugo
First of all, nobody wants to see Robert in a speedo. Second, that is from the Yugo project. A fact that all of us regular viewers recognize instantly.
@@ModelA My apologies. I didn't realize I should have directed my question to you, as the spokesperson for the channel, it seems, since you know that "nobody" wants to see him in a Speedo. I suppose it's a common mistake for those of us who are not "regular viewers". :|
I got so excited for that sweeper thing only to find out it's discontinued 10 secs later
If I wanted to jump into the ryobi ecosystem, Id probably just walk out the side door of my house, and grab one of my fathers. That brushless impact, Thats a great tool. Broke the crank bolt free of the pully of my riding mowers engine.
Aging Wheels! I don't want to click Like, I want to click Love. Because I LOVE it!
My friends shop uses those exact us general tool carts. They take the gas struts off the top so they can roll it under a car on the lift.
Need to get the complimentary 'I wish I was driving my YUGO' sticker for the Trabant.
Team Green over here checking in. Sometimes the tools you have are the tools you got for your wedding in 2010, and that's how we became a Ryobi Family!
Having bought the 1 gallon portable aircompressor for small work/vehicle jobs, I somehow ended up with a bunch of neon green tools. Am actually pleased with how good they are. I kinda regret not getting one of the 40v push mowers when I bought my house, but that's in the future.
I bought one this year. Great mower, nice and quiet in comparison to a gas mower, but they don't like wet or damp grass all that much.
If you can, wait for them to come back on promotion. I got a free leaf blower when I got mine.
One concern about Direct Tools Outlets is that many of the tools you buy from their may be discontinued or discontinuing soon, so be wary of investing in a new tool+battery system as those batteries could end up being discontinued soon and never available again.
Not an issue if they use the same battery as tools you already own.
He shouldn't be buying any of this crap. He should buy a compressor and air tools.
@@tarstarkusz ... naah , air is so last century ( unless you've a 3/4 drive impact for stubborn wheel nuts/lugs )
@@888johnmac You're joking, right? I hope. You can buy air tools today and give them to your great grandchild. Every tool in this video will be totally obsolete in 10 years;.
As for power, nothing beats air. Corded tools cannot hold a candle to air (because good air tools require a large 240v compressor)
If you're going to complain about money, well, cheap air tools are cheaper and dude has a lift and air-conditioned shop (not even a garage, the thing is enormous)
@@tarstarkusz Considering how many of his tools are cordless, including some that frankly don't need to be like the soldering station, it might be a matter of preference more than anything.
Hey it’s me @kdosik lol thanks for the shout out Robert!
I had curiosity. I love seeing, touching, smelling, tasting and hearing about tools. I love tools! I love to see what tools you have. Thank you, for showing us your tools.
I plan to buy a quick jack system, now! Thanks for the recommendation. I wasn't sure how much use I'd get from it, but you've convinced me, now.
"Where I got is should be Pattonly obvious"
That was a solid pun
That was… sublime. Alex’s videos are the only other 30+ minute videos on a mundane topic I can enjoy.
Ryobi… I have a collection acquired over the past few years (lawn mower, leaf blower, weed eater). My 40V 5amp battery died suddenly a few weeks ago. I wrote to Ryobi and asked if I could use a 4amp battery (I never use a single charge in Z weeks worth of lawn care despite have a ¼ acre lot).
They emailed right back, and despite my battery being beyond the warranty limit, they sent me a brand new 40v 5 amp battery! They were generous, kind, quick, and very professional!
I have RIGID tools as well (drills, shop vac. etc).
But I can say that Ryobi’s customer service was top notch.
Can't wait for that Under Dunn equivalent to this video featuring the Might Mite!
This is why I like you. For some reason it seems like a lot of technical youtubers have all sorts of big tools and equipment and then they use some stupid hand tool like a hacksaw. Like they can't buy a $40 Harbor Freight sawzall, but they can buy several thousand dollar metal lathes and Bridgeports.
Great video with honest opinions.
You make some great observations on power and usability of some of the tools.
Also you pointed out the exact reason I have avoided buying a 3D printer.
My house would be full of 3D printed EVERYTHING
I'm glad I found your channel a few years ago. It was a vid about your homemade campervan shell. It seemed uninteresting for a minute or two ... until your sense of humour kicked in. Have been watching every vid ever since.
I bought a pioneer mini split last year, And your discount from your pioneer video still worked.
I'm also into Ryobi. Why Ryobi, well I had no tools, I saw a combo and I've been buying their stuff because it all works with the same batteries.
Also got the soldering station because I needed one, and they had one that worked with the battery and bonus, you can plug that one in as well.
Assuming they sell the small glue gun here (Canada, also Home Depot exclusive) I might get one.
You are Ryobi's target market. Consumers who have no point of reference and hence no experience in anything better. Ask people who own "higher end" brands and they will say that Ryobi tools are "chintzy"... to me they just feel like cheap rubbish, gutless and flimsy like they would break if you gave them any stress.
I own a few 18V Ryobi, most have broken during use, rather than worn out, and have been replaced with better devices. Actually, now I think about it the only 18V Ryobi that I own that still works is one battery charger (the other one is dead). The 18V batteries are also REALLY poor, since the BMS kills the first cell in the pack so you have to buy a complete new one (I refuse to buy any more of their shit).
And Ryobi 18V aren't really that cheap anyway, so I reckon there's better choices.
@@johncoops6897 my stepdad dropped a ranger on his sawzall that was on fire 7 times and it was fine, wasn't even the nice brushless tools. Never had a ryobi battery fail, although the 40v batteries are complete shit.
I haven't seen that screensaver in 20 years!
Half an hour of showing off, I love it
👏👏👏👏👏
Brilliant video!!
"What do you get someone who has everything..? A place to store his everything!!“ 🤣🤣
We don't watch just because of the subject matter, we watch because it's you. You're entertaining as hell no matter what you're talking about. Keep up the fantastic work!
What an awesome upload!! Well done!
Very informative. We love to hear you talk about stuff. More!
My dad is also a big Ryobi guy. This is actually giving me gifts ideas for him.
Your videos always make my day. Thank you!
Excellent video Robert. Entertaining and informative as always. A little arm chair quarterbacking here……I’m a retired sparktrician and it sounds a little odd that sparky number 1 did not do a five minute assessment of your house/shop service before adding a heavy load to an already loaded up service.
My personal tool hierarchy, Good stuff in the service truck, Milwaukee, Klein, and so forth, no so good in my own shop, Rigid, harbor freight etc, tool bench in basement, dollar bin crap, no name Menards. Gotta the have the good stuff to work with all day every day but not necessarily for hanging curtain rods or working on Yugos. (Sorry. Couldn’t resist)
Loved the Ramble!!!! Nice video! Thank you!
Your presentations are fun!
So excited what you are going to create with the CNC! Love your videos!
That tool that pops the bolt without him touching it and scaring the crap out of him was probably the hilight of that entire video
I love your "I am the warranty" shirt. I have the companion shirt to it, "I void warranties" Lol.
Totally should be sponsored by Ryobi, totally sold me on buying Ryobi tools now.
I feel like people don't talk about your thumbnails enough, but I really like them. they're enticing, fun, distinctive, and make me want to watch the video without being misleading :)
I actually enjoyed that. More tool ramble rants please!
Blow molder tool cases are useful for specialty tools, but you cannot tell what they are on a shelf as the labels are only on the top.
PAINT PEN.
Mark the ends of those things! So much easier to find now.
Also, lateral office cabinets are fantastic with the lids. I have several with drawers below and shelves with lids/covers on top. Strong, not horribly expensive, and really clean up a space.
They also serve the function of hiding my glasses I know I just had in hand a few minutes ago.
Always good content spoken with a flare of fun and whimsy. Love all your videos and keep them coming.
Even better than hearing about all this is the fact that it confirms you'll eventually do a new wood shop tool video on Under Dunn, too.
Man, I love your content... Your humour is on point and I laugh an giggle all the time with your "perks" ! Keep up the good work.
This description felt very therapeutic. You poured at us all your tool-related pain and all your tool-related joy. Now you can happily chunk broken tools in the recycle and live again
11:38 - "Anger grinder" can totally be a brutal name for a Heavy Metal band!!
Absolutely love this content
I love your shop and entire set up, I hope to one day have a shop like this myself
Ryobi, please just sponsor the man! I would happily listen to a 5-minute no-warning product placement out of Robert's mouth inserted into the middle of anything at this point.
This is one of the funniest videos I have watched in ages... thank you for every minute! LOL
Thanx for the show! :D
Loved every bit, thanks for the tour and tips! Am just on the verge of getting myself one of them Enders for such purposes as you showed last - adapters, small tweaks and whatnot. The struggle with Fusion has been real - even with some old habits from 3d Max - but dang it seems convenient to harness.
That was great! I loved all of it, and the convenience stuff is honestly my favorite part of any shop. You're 100% right about AC and a lift.
I'm happy for U and you deserve all of it and more.
Don't know how I got here... But most honest tool review on the internet lol. Subbed
I got a back brace like that, but more weird. It arrived on its own from Amazon, fully addressed to me specifically. I asked everyone I could think of if they ordered it and had it shipped to me by mistake, but no one did.
Good to hear Marius mentioned in your video. I love his shop videos.
tool overviews, shop tours and shop furniture builds are some of my favorite videos. now. do the wood shop!
I am always entertained with your videos. I am not in a place anywhere near your capacity to do stuff, and I am humbled by the huge volume of stuff that you do, along with making entertaining videos about it.
That you come across as genuine is a HUGE attractor. Huge, Bigly, Vast.
Thanks a lot for your new video.
You are amazingly entertaining.
I think you could be talking about laws and it still would be entertaining.
Anyway , I learned a lot more in the last halb hours than in a complete normal school day :)
I have never watched one of your videos. I generally ignore new tool stuff and videos this long. I found this very inforative and I agree with you on many shared experiences with the same tools. Thumbs up for sure.
I have lots of Ryobi tools and Rob is spot on with his review. They are great in general. Great video
This is great between tang tools and the tools you have gives me options. On a side note I am super glad to see the Yugo has a good home it’s nice to see a car like that have a good home :)
This video was a very useful insight on automotive tools!
Good stuff my man. Thanks for sharing. I enjoyed it and good ifno.
😂 your channel is great... Lot of fun and enthusiasm
My mini split gets delivered tomorrow. I can't wait!
I was just recommended this video and I'm not into working on cars and have never seen your channel, but I'll check out more of your videos! You seem like a cool, genuine guy!
Babe wake up, new Aging Wheels just dropped
Really cool tool collection I love my tools and could talk about them for hrs
Can you inform the people in my life that the answer to ‘What do you get someone that has everything’ is ‘a place to keep their everything’ because a decent tool box and storage things for my hangar would be an excellent gift!
Thank you for sharing! Your youtube channel is awesome!
Still want that tool tour for the woodshop.
Great choice in 3D printer! Its my first printer too and I love it.
Cool tip for frugal or classical mechanic. Go to a thrift store or look in classified for dressers and other furniture. Then put wheels on the bottom. Boop, mobile storage. Worked great with sewing machine, fabrics, and the such for the wife. Also shop has beautiful wood stained tool storage.
This was a great serotonin shot.
THIS VIDEO IS A TESTAMENT TO YOUR SKILLS AS A PRESENTER, BECAUSE I HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO INTEREST IN TOOLS BUT WAS THOROUGHLY ENTERTAINED.
Great vid Robert! I like your Ryobi explanation no need for tools 3x the price typically, I use alot of Mastercraft stuff which is made alongside snap-on in the same facility but 1/4 the cost usually.
We have the same mower, and after 2 years still working great.
You just seriously reminded me of Tim Taylor hawking Binford tools. Especially when you note the deficiencies. Acknowledging deficiencies is the mark of a true tool aficionado.
I have that exact same tool cart. Same color too. BUT I got the optional side tray that folds up and the paper towel holder. Both very nice additions.
I really liked this video. Super helpful. I’m right at the precipice of falling into the ryobi green hole. I would love some 40v tool mower reviews. Ryobi!!!!! Sponsor this man!!!!!!!
