    Dan Gelbart has a video on "coatings" where he talks about how you can get paint. powdercoat and etc to stick really really well with either sandblasting, torching the metal, or cleaning the surface with ajax or comet. This removes any microscopic films or drops from solvents which can eventually lead to the paint coming off more easily than it needs to. Maybe something to give a try.

      You are so right! I saw that video when it first came out! Dan is super knowledgeable and does a great job explaining what makes coatings "stick" I suggest anyone who hasn't seen Dan's video watch it! ua-cam.com/video/x7onZGqrYyY/v-deo.html

      If you are as old as Scout Crafter and I, then this will make sense.

      He would greatly appreciate this crowbar, for obvious reasons.

      @@ScoutCrafter His weakness was cringy chrome grills. Even plastic, if you recall. Chrysler design studio only groaned when visits were scheduled because he would always find a chrome suggestion.
      Mustang, Pinto, Kcars, Minivans........all Iacocca.
      He campaigned for $1.5bn in loan guarantees from the US.
      Committed to 11 year payback.
      Only ever used $1.2 bn.
      Paid back in 4 years.
      He was a true American car guy's hero.
      " If you can find a better car, buy it!"
      Put the restoration of derelict Statue of Liberty, and Ellis Island back together. Under budget, with a fine job of course.
      Just like Scout Crafter restores so wonderfully.

    Absolutely love those fibre wheels. You’re right, they are a game changer. I have an old wire wheel my Dad bought about 55 years ago. I still use it as it’s a lovely soft steel brush. It has never lost a wire but is worn down almost to the hub, so not quite as soft as it used to be. Love your work John. Thanks. 🇦🇺👍

    Hi Scout, a couple of things to note about the fibre wheels. They come in a variety of grades from 80grit right up to 1000 grit. They are also available for 4 & 5 inch grinders. And finally they make a hell of a mess but the results are worth it. I have connected up my 4” ducting system to each wheel and that has made a huge difference. Great work on the crowbar. Cheers Stuart 🇦🇺

    Hi scout, grandpa's crowbar looks great, I see you've got the latest watercooled electric supply, all your power tools will be much cooler before long, it's supplied by the Flash Bang electric co, true inovaters in power supply, the only downside as I see it , is the wearing of a rubber diving suit, because of the water you understand, and using wires or pipes to direct the flow of electric is optional . Please let me know what you think of this new idea, I can only imagine it will be an illuminating experience to try. . Best wishes Stuart uk.

      Had a very similar problem in my house.
      Insulation on power line had very small cracks. FAILED.
      Water came down line into box -
      circuit breakers were rusted.
      Cost me $1500 to fix.
      New circuit box and now power line is in conduit. Should have been,
      it faces the southern sun.

    Check the top of the pipe that your electric comes in. There should be a curved hood that has its opening facing down. It’s caked a weather head. You might need an electrician to make adjustments to the weather head. Con Ed owns the wire leading up to the hook that’s mounted on the house, and then you own the pipe and the wire running down it. They own the meter, but the box that the meter is in is yours and of course, everything after the meter is your responsibility to maintain. Often the serviceman will do you a solid and fix the pipe where it’s connected to the house if he likes you, but he isn’t required to and can actually get in trouble for doing it, but most people would not complain of it saves them the cost of hiring an electrician. But it’s definitely not good to have the water coming in like that and it can damage your meter and give erroneous readings, so I would call them first and feel the guy out. But remember that he isn’t obligated to fix certain things and can tell you to get an electrician. It’s better safe than sorry!

      Hi Joe! Most electrical service here in the city comes into the house underground from the telephone poles at the street... Con Edison is responsible for this as the water is entering the service pipe at the pole. This isn't very uncommon here as over time shifting polls often open the service pipe enough that water finds it's way in... I have heard that one fix Con Ed does is pour melted bee's wax into the service pipe at the pole creating a seal. I had this problem in 2017 and they said they fixed the problem... Well, I called them back and I am on the list again... =)

    Hello my friend like the video, always have to add your RED touch.....have a question I have been meaning to ask this for a while after grinding do you damage the integrity of the tool in any way? Also still waiting for a good video on Bit Rust removing......maybe you have a long list.

      Hello Mohamed - Yes it's on the list! As for ruining the integrity not at all, however excessive rust can, if left alone can eventually compromise integrity! I have seen rusty tools snap! Never clean ones...

    Does the fiber wheel only go on one way or can you flip it?

    • @ScoutCrafter
      @ScoutCrafter  5 років тому

      Only one way as the flaps are laid down so they won't tear off when spinning. The best way to buy the flap discs are in bulk as you save a ton of money! If you buy them at home depot they are very expensive!

    Since the Boy Scouts recalled the neckerchief slides because of too much lead in them, I suspect that the fiber wheels might have lead in them!? Wear a breather mask when in use. It could be worse ... asbestos!!!
