This guy is fantastic and in my opinion the best homesteading channel on UA-cam, while other homesteaders have transitioned into talking about politics and impending war and the fall of civilization just for clickbait and whatnot, this channel just keeps putting out useful content about things around the farm and home. i would love to see an official up to date farm tour video.
@@SpencerRyllSmith lol. I think he is. Years ago he put out some informative videos. But now it’s exactly like you said. Waiting for the day his channel disappears.
Dude I love what you’ve been putting out lately… I found your channel during the “full size brass canon” phase… everything you’ve put out is great. But the last year and how you’ve been using Patreon to fund acquisitions and projects is straight-up awesome!
@@shaocaholica The gun channel was awesome and I remember first coming across FC101 / GC101 with the aluminum cans lower video. But I agree with Jared, these recent projects have been a whole new kind of awesome
John, you may be impressed with this Jackery, but I am always stunningly impressed with you! I struggled to envision how you were going to build this bench, but as usual, you blew my mind.
Just caught this video a little while after posting, and you have just nailed it again. I watch every video, and this one was absolutely everything I love about your videos. Keep up the great work, and never stop throwing in just random stuff to keep us entertained! I loved the dogs running around, and rolling in the mud. Plus the one day old calf seeing a drone for the first time, really makes you think about how we live nowadays, and the progress this world has seen in such a small time period.
Jon, it's hard to tell who the real winner is in this review. Jackery got what turned out to be a surprisingly stellar review and you produced not only a beautiful addition to your dock but a fantastic video as well! And oh yeah, a cute little day old calf. Win, win, win, & win!
This is super content, Jon. Making an entertaining product review video isn’t impossible, but it sure isn’t easy. You knocked it out of the park this time.
Dont get me excited about wind turbine builds unless you mean it, man id watch the hell out of a farmcraft 101 wind turbine build. Favorite channel for sure.
Nice bench and the Jackery is really impresive especially with the warranty. Like the use of the fallen tree and enjoyed the aroma of the cedar!! Missed the seals though.
In your test you said you were loosing energy as heat and had heaters on, so you had 3rd heater 😂 Also love this bench you made, really great to turn collapsed tree to something useful.
Hi John, this was a great video, for two reasons. The power pack looks sensational, although I’m not sure it’s available as yet in Australia. Second reason, that cedar wood looked gorgeous, and yes, we were imagining what it would smell like. The bench you made looked amazing. What a great way to show how efficient the power pack is. Cheers from South Australia.
You have an amazing amount of skill sets, and your life and property seems very appealing to me. You are very blessed and I know it's because you made good decisions and when you didn't you learned something from it. You made your life what you wanted and it didn't come from sitting around wishing for it. You make for a great example for a life well lived. Thanks for sharing. I really enjoy your videos. Probably too much. I need to get my butt moving.
In regards to your windy weather comment. I live in Maui, north shore. This year we had two months of 25-35 mph winds with driving rain. That is not usual for us. There was no sunny days during that time. We get almost the same weather as you but a couple of weeks before. Love your channel, and your humor. Mahalo.
Kayak or hip waders, seems like a reasonable solution. That dip in the water sure made that grain pop on the board. The roundover gives it a nice finished look. Nice project!
is it a great unit at 4000$ though, especially when you have to get that 4000$ worth of use in 5-8 years before the batteries are out of steam and the whole unit is junk since the cells arent replaceable
Good to see you had doggy supervision :) Regards solar panels, the speed at which they have improved is amazing. I have a 'briefcase' set from the late 200s / early 2010s. Two solar panels about 2 or 3 foot square. In good sunlight they can generate around 20 watts.
Better than any other youtuber that advertise a sponsor's solar product. You practically showed how it could be used in th real world. And how it held up.
Great video mister! Great build; I love the « from fallen tree to finished bench in two days»- concept. You have a no nonsense attitude that inspires me- I am a construction worker by trade and log home builder by training so I see great value in the problem solving invironment any project which involves from ground up MAKING is. Keeps a man sharp in the mind, and springy on his feet, as it were..
Great bench, John,and a great project...maybe consider an arm rest on the right hand side to hopefully stop someone accidentally falling or being 'helped' into the water? That solar power pack performed amazingly...brilliant piece of kit!
John, You have a very nice location !! The layout is ideal. Fields, woods, water and plenty of room is perfect for all that you do. Great video as always. The Jackery 3000 sure seems to be a great unit !
You did a wonderful job on that bench and you were very professional doing that trial on the solar generator & panels a very interesting video once again.
Nice project, as always. Thanks for the great product review. Your bench might benefit from some arm rests (could integrate cup holders?) - not for safety or anything, just to define the space better - so it feels like sitting on a bench rather than perching on the edge of a pontoon
Calf out here a day old, smart enough to be scared of stuff, and capable enough to run away from it. At a day old I was still confused as to why I wasn't swimming any more.
You got some solid skills. Looks like you're capable of handling any job, down to the production of the wood. A solar generator like that would only be useful for me during camping, and even then I couldn't justify it's price. You said something about Wind power generation? that'd be a cool project, I'd love to see how you'd go about making that. Cheers

I was gonna say that cheap meter wont be accurate. Its good enough most of the time but if you need mW accuracy you need to get a Fluke or something of similar quality.
Hey John, I just wanted to make you aware and hopefully you can do your own research. Lithium Ion batteries are fantastic and all with all sorts of utility they can be used for but they come with an inherent danger which is thermal runaway. With a generator like unit run primarily using Lithium Ion batteries and it moving around being stored in not good conditions can really change how that battery will deteriorate. Plus not everyone is gonna treat that generator with the respect it needs and damage may occur and that should be told to the masses as well. Lithium ion batteries are known for causing fires and being very difficult to put out. Thermal runaway happens when a cell in the battery fails and starts heating up causing a cascading effect to make other cells in the battery fail. Fires and even explosions are known to occur. Explosions happen more in areas where the off gasing from the batteries thermal runaway has nowhere to ventilate then the gases find a ignition source causing big boom. I believe a giant lithium ion battery generator is a dangerous thing and needs to be respected. I tried explaining that as best as I could from the knowledge from my job. Feel free to reach out and ask more questions and do your own research. Lithium ion batteries are no joke and need to taken care of and eventually retired from your tools for a new one and people need to know that. Love the vids John keep em up!
Life PO4 batteries are far more stable than LiPo which is why they are used in power tools etc that can and do get really rough treatment. Here’s a simple test, take a fully charged Life PO4 battery and drive a nail through it. Now do the same with a LiPo, but stand well back from that one!
@@quidsquid9151 theyve improved lithium ion safety 100x in recent years, i havent seen a battery fire that wasnt intentional in several years.. ive been running milwuakee tools for 6+ years and i do not treat the tools or batteries nicely, they get left in -40c weather, and used on rooftops sitting on black shingles that are too hot to touch i guess 55c+, the handles on the radio which are typically a hard plastic with zero give got so hot in the heat of the summer that they were flexible and rubber like the batteries never gave me a single issue, despite me pushing them as hard as possible and frequently making them hit their thermal throttle/shutoff likewise with my iphone which uses a different style of battery but its lithium nonetheless, theres PD fast charges that will attempt to push silly power into it as much as 100w, the phone gets piping hot, uncomfortably hot to hold against your face actually, never an issue with that battery either
Great video and great work! Just need a top board on the end grain of the back of the bench, with a toe board for drinks, phones and such. Plus it will help keep the end grain of the back risers from soaking up water.
i honestly would add a support in the far corner towards the pillar just to prevent sacking and swinging. Its sturdy enough but if you put weight there a bit of support should help.
Nice portable power system. The idea 💡 of having a conversational generator on hand to recharge the unit is essential to compensate for all the variables that a strictly solar charged power unit might run into. Heavy overcast conditions can dramatically effect the energy yield. Lastly, as I've pointed out to folks in the past ,the Solar Charged portable power units are great for intermittent loads at low to moderate power demands. High energy or continuous demand loads are another story. ie... equipment such as, heaters, pumps, high capacity lighting compressors, welders etc.. It's all about duty cycle, (duration of the Load and frequency of the use) vs the size/kw rating of the power pack...
Looks like I need a Jackery! I'm impressed! I was using my Champion generator one day while working on the barn. I was doing a complete rewire and had the power to the barn shut off. I decided to charge my Dewalt batteries, so I plugged the Dewalt charger into the generator. The generator fried the Dewalt charger! Great video and great bench - out of a blow-down at that. Thanks, Jon! Lee
What a great project! My son and I watch your videos and they have given him motivation to go out into our barn and build with wood! So thank you for that sir!
Great VJO....again! I am only 7:06 in and have not read the rest of the comments sorry if this is redundant. The power from generator or and inverter is not a pure sine wave. Most basic volt meters when measuring AC voltage are ( for lack if a better term) calibrated based on an almost pure sine wave, because inverters and generators almost never produce a true sine wave the reading is off. Some meters will give what is known as a true RMS voltage. A True RMS volt meter gives the RMS voltage based on what is actually there regardless if it is a pure sine wave or not or the equivalent RMS voltage. When you measure the voltage from your house it is being measured in RMS voltage.
Very impressed its keeping up with you on building this built in Bench at the lake with only 2 pannels and the sun is going in and out of clouds and its actually charging over ehat your using very impressive John @FarmCraft101
that thin blade on your saw is warping due to heat because of the thickness and the material that you're cutting is making it making the blade heat up expand and warp that's why it seems like it's bogging down, it's obviously designed for thinner material like plywood. Wrong job for that blade. always look forward to your videos, thanks for uploading. The DM (UK)
I'm not laughing one bit at the kyack. I had to do a pier job in the middle of the Elizabeth River in VA. I had to work from a john boat with a trolling motor fighting the tide in 20 mph winds. It was funny as hell.
Watching the World's Toughest Fixes, they put a huge prop on a giant platform, but had a GPS controlled boat to keep them steady. Would've mads your life a bit easier, eh?
I can't wait till they start incorporating 240v into these units so that you can use it as a backup for a well pump. I know they have them, but they are not very common. Running a big generator all the time during an outage just for the well pump to kick on once in a while gets old. this one that you got charges crazy fast though, I might have to check into one to replace my goalzero
I've been wanting to get one of these portable batteries. I'd get one with a LiFEPO4 battery though for longevity. Great bench and it's awesome that you have a saw mill to make your own boards!
I can't say exactly what you did in this particular vid (blush) but you've yet again helped me with my hubris in a visual representation sort of way that no psychologist could ever dream up in a diabolical thought experiment designed to point out the bleeding obvious that everyone else can see bar me! Oh dear🙃 BTW, Did I ever tell you about Jack & Mary? Jack & Mary worked in a country hardware store. The store came upon hard times and the store owner didn't know whether to lay Mary or Jack off.
Awesome video John!! Thanks for letting me how well the Jackery works!! Its now a must have for me and family! But I think the Diablo thin curved, saw blade is for that making a curve cut! Lol
Nice work, power station looks nice, I've never been a fan of cantilevered stuff although they are fine, the origins of using the cantilever was to reduce square footage on the kings land and pay less taxes

Hey Look our lift is not on fire :) Supportive Bleep Boop Oh and thumbs up on cattle shots

Especially when we wound up on plywood platforms with Styrofoam as the floating ballast. That was for calm days to be fair.

Running a big generator all the time during an outage just for the well pump to kick on once in a while gets old. this one that you got charges crazy fast though, I might have to check into one to replace my goalzero
I suggested to them that they make a unit with a 240v outlet as well as 250 amps at 12v, or as high as the pack can handle. Would be amazing.
@@FarmCraft101 I would imagine they could open up their market to all of the western world if they did 240v. seems like a no brainer to me

The store came upon hard times and the store owner didn't know whether to lay Mary or Jack off.
That really turned out nice good job, oh this is Mark love your show!
Hello Jon and Jennifer,
Happy Easter to you and your family.

You may not be playing with your Johnson but you are still just Jackering around! I came for the seals but stayed for the cedar.
Awesome video John!! Thanks for letting me how well the Jackery works!! Its now a must have for me and family! But I think the Diablo thin curved, saw blade is for that making a curve cut! Lol
Excellent video for a whole stack of reasons. Thanks.
21:23 that felt good watching fingers on blade when it has power and finger on trigger.
What a great video. Tree to bench. Definitely going to look in to that generator. Amazing.
Nice work, power station looks nice, I've never been a fan of cantilevered stuff although they are fine, the origins of using the cantilever was to reduce square footage on the kings land and pay less taxes
Last minute though. That area where the boats are located. Should dig it back a little and create a sandy beach area. Just a thought
Awesome
Thank John
