5:33 I've had the expression "everything is a screwdriver" but never "everything is a shovel". 😂 Innovative use of an angle grinder, I've never seen one used as a shovel before. Loving the uncut videos. Keep it up Oliver.
Not good to use a high speed grinding disc for anything but grinding. You don't want to see them flying apart at high speed when their integrity has been compromised.
It's strange, I watch these jobs, and every decision I make to fix the problem, and tool I reach for, Ollie just reads my mind and does what I'm thinking. The man is a bloody mind reader.
Hi Ollie Happy New Year. I love your use of the cordless power shovel.😂 I have several of those and didn’t know that feature. I always learn something watching your videos… John
Ollie, your videos mean so much to me, especially now. My mother just passed away a few days after Christmas, and it has destroyed me. I have been watching your videos to help me get through the days. I watch what I can, cry, and watch more. Keep making as many videos as you can because I am going to need them now more than ever.
Sorry to hear about your loss @justincrafton6105. Mothers are very special and irreplaceable. Hope with time your pain will fade but not the wonderful memories of your Mum.
TIM from Canada love the show.. I am a regular. I watch this every time you post a video. I have got it down to a science. I can now almost when you put on a new nozzle I can call out before you say your nozzle and 95% of the time I am right again love the show you there in Australia have great scenery always like to see different parts of the world when I’m watching these videos great job
home owners need to be aware you can buy screens to cover your gutters to keep out the leaves and not plug the drains ,I do enjoy your new format and longer videos we get to see the whole operation from beginning to the pack up to leave
LOVE the engine chug at 5:00 in, I do remember you visiting this place before and having similar issues! It's nice to see people are calling you back to do another excellent job on their drains! Pleasure to watch an expert at work Happy new year Ollie!!
Noientee.....noientee!! Awesome tool assortment. Shovel grinder, and rock hammer/wrench🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣Happy New Year, Ollie!! If I lived close to you, I would volunteer to empty, clean and wash and wax the van ALL GOOD👍👍👍 for you. God Bless everyone.
This is nuts Ollie, I almost didn’t watch this one cause I recognized the thumbs up from the first time you were there! Love all your videos, God bless you my good man!
New Video to start 2025! Thank you!!! 😊 An easy straight-forward job with no capped off pipes in this one. Happy New Year and best wishes for a fantastic year ahead for all! Blessings.....................
Nice start to the year. An Ollie UNCUT I wish you many many "blooocked draiiiins" more seriously all the best to the family and take good care of your back...
I enjoy watching your videos Ollie, another one done exceptionally well for the books. I appreciate your commitment to serve in Jesus Christ, you never hesitate to showing the Bible verses I love it. I hope this new year is a great one for you. I’ll continue to watch your videos. Thanks for supplying plenty of content. I really appreciate it. Have a great year, buddy.
People's comments are very refreshing usually you don't wanna read the UA-cam comments one of these days I'd like to have a conversation with you Oliver nothing else I'm a firm believer in the resurrection prefer to talk sooner but if you endure one day you'll have all the time you need or could ever want.
I’ll have you know Ollie that there are more uses for an angle grinder than cutting and shoveling. I rigged one up to be part of a home made variable speed drill. Not recommended nor safe nor sane to say the least. Lose more bits this way than it’s worth.
Everything is a tool eh Ollie! Maybe this year you'll excavate the van, you know the search for ancient tools... LOL peace in the new year, may it bring you joy and a big fat winning lottery ticket. (do you have them there?)
No edits,...😂 A fantastic video with or without the odd edit. Watching your channel is educational and has helped me learn a few things about drain clearance and jetting.
Ollie, as a man of faith I miss seeing the passages on the jetter. I like how you change them up and are not shy about the message that the gospel sends us. Best regards from Vermont in the US
Hi Ollie, thanks for another fantastic uncut video! I admit you're my favourite channel on this topic as your commentary is always concise and informative and with no nonsense as well as the videos showing what is really going on and how much work is actually involved in resolving the problems. I watch your channel all the way from the United Kingdom, Europe. I find it both fascinating and educational seeing how things are done in Australia. I think the thing about the stormwater drain videos that sets them apart is that the systems have a beginning, a middle (getting to the 'root' of the problem) and an end, both figuratively and literally that you can feature making a complete story. Are the hose bibs (outside taps) in Australia the quarter-turn type? I am curious as when you connect the water feed hose for the jetter, you barely seem to open the valve. For my own machine it's a case of always opening the valve fully, maybe back it off a small amount so it's not hard against the stop, to allow maximum flow and protect the high pressure pump from the damaging effects of air being drawn due to water starvation. I also wonder if it might be helpful if there was compressed air available to blow the hoses through and reduce the weight of them. Other than that, I hope you had a great Christmas and wish you a happy and prosperous new year!
Ollie, I'm in the UK none of the birdsongs apart from the kookaburra are known to me can you let us all know what they are? Love watching you work and I am jealous of your sunshine its very cold and grey here best regards Ken
how neat a mikita rotary shovel all purpose tool saw the sydney firworks how the other night they werev great thought they were gonna blow up the bri dge

Everything is a hammer is one I’ve heard a bit
The first time I’ve ever seen a angle grinder used as a shovel. You’re a revolutionary, Oliver. Well done. Loving these uncut videos!
haha ..a multi task tool
loool
lol👍👍
Ah yes, the shovel-grinder. Closely regarded as the second most underrated multi-tool after the glorious crescent-hammer.
👍👍😊
It’s an Aussie thing!
Haha you know it! 😂
"Makita Hates Plumbers for this One Simple Trick!" 🤣🤣🤣
It's strange, I watch these jobs, and every decision I make to fix the problem, and tool I reach for, Ollie just reads my mind and does what I'm thinking. The man is a bloody mind reader.
lol👍
I remember this video in the busy, massive branches are growing in there!
👍👍
This was a workout. Up and down that pathway. 😂 Great job as always. Loved the "Shovel" haha. -Anita 👍🌲
Hi Ollie Happy New Year. I love your use of the cordless power shovel.😂 I have several of those and didn’t know that feature. I always learn something watching your videos… John
😂
@ My right angle grinders work like shovels too! 🤣 You just hit the trigger and it throws the dirt for you.😮
Happy new year Ollie 🎉 watching from freezing cold Norway🇳🇴. Lots of snow and -14 c°🥶
Another great video Ollie and excellent work taking those roots out
I can’t think of a better way to ring in the new year!
What a bonus when Olly turns up at your door.You know for certain if he can't clear it ,no one can.
Ollie, your videos mean so much to me, especially now. My mother just passed away a few days after Christmas, and it has destroyed me. I have been watching your videos to help me get through the days. I watch what I can, cry, and watch more. Keep making as many videos as you can because I am going to need them now more than ever.
I’m so sorry for your loss, prayers for you to be comforted🙏

Another nice video!
You sure earned your pay today.

30:43 that’s how we do crack lol 😂 got that right Ollie.
Happy new year to you Ollie. Nice job...it's time to give the new van a shower for the new year 😊
I’ll have you know Ollie that there are more uses for an angle grinder than cutting and shoveling. I rigged one up to be part of a home made variable speed drill. Not recommended nor safe nor sane to say the least. Lose more bits this way than it’s worth.
Nice job 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼

There also needs to a law saying every 90 must be a sweeping 90.
that's a hot exhaust
No edits,...😂 A fantastic video with or without the odd edit.
Watching your channel is educational and has helped me learn a few things about drain clearance and jetting.
😂
in my area, roof gutter downspouts just run off onto the top of the ground. seems overly complicated routing them into drain pipes
Another great video, we are certainly getting spoiled. Happy New Year Ollie to you and your family.
if I went by Ollie's videos I would think half of Australians live on the sides of cliffs LOL
A surprise camera angle of the Penetrator blasting through! Happy New Year! 🥳
Ollie, as a man of faith I miss seeing the passages on the jetter. I like how you change them up and are not shy about the message that the gospel sends us. Best regards from Vermont in the US
Another job Well done Cowboy🥳. Awl good 👍🏼
Another job well done, Ollie! One thing is for sure, you get your exercise and a work out in every day. I get tired watching you. :)
Happy new year buddy much love from Dorset 🇬🇧
