Your racial prejudice against Chinese products is awful. You should be ashamed. I've had badly engineered products from British, American, German, Italian, Korean, and, yes Chinese sources. Caveat emptor. Buyer beware. I must say that I've always gotten my money back when I've bought a cheap Chinese made product without any arguments, which is not the case elsewhere. Your stupidity in buying crappy products is your fault. Cack handed mechanics, electricians, builders etc., deserve their scars. We can only hope they learn from them and that they are not fatal.
Kudos to you for railing against the inequity of The Chinese Products. The poor downtrodden Chinese Products. I'm really trying, but still I feel no shame.
Vast majority of Chinese stuff is JUNK!! I hate redoing car repair jobs because cheap chinese parts! Tools that break, flashlights that corrode in a very short time or flicker off/on, power cables that get hot to the touch because the copper is too small to carry load and over heats MELTING the insulation around it. Plastics on power cables for appliances that start stiff and get stiffer with age! I could go on and on and on! I am 60 and I grew up when USofA made stuff WORKED and lasted! Still have most of it. Read up on how cheaply and shoddily buildings are thrown up IN CHINA! This is not 'Racial' it is a fact about the way Commie Chinese operate.

….. Dude, you are so spot on with the price of this tool when purchased from a Strap-On dealer.. A very good friend of mine purchased one of these hydraulic puller kits from his Strap-On dealer , and though it isn’t an actual Strap-On label brand tool, it is a “Master Kit” with just about every attachment and accessory made for it, and it is very high quality… He paid like 2k bucks for it if I remember correctly, and that was a few years back.. He has used it quite a bit and he swears it has paid for itself in just the time and aggravation that it has saved him.. He works on diesel engines and heavy equipment, and he also does quite a bit of machine shop work and engine rebuilding as well.. So he uses this tool quite a bit more often than most people I personally know and that’s why he spent the money he did… He pretty much relays on it at this point, and doesn’t even consider using any different methods.. I wouldn’t either if I had that in my tool box lol.. But I think he actually just looks for reasons to use it lol.. It does do a lot, and has so many attachments that it has replaced half of the puller kits he already has.. Having the right tool for the job is like 90% of the battle.. Screwing around can land you in deep deep doo doo.. We’ve all been to poo-town at some point lol… This was actually satisfying watching that gear get bumped off that crank… I could feel that victory when it finally moved lol.. It can be very aggravating when your job gets held up like that, and all prior efforts produce zero progress… You got a really good price on that tool, and for it to actually work as anticipated is a huge win 👍… Sometimes it’s a gamble , but a win is a win!!.. that tool paid for itself with just this one use imo.. Hope the rest of the job goes as smooth, and you get her back up and singing like James Brown.. 😬👍👍… Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family, as well as anyone else who reads this comment.. 😬👍🇺🇸
From what I’ve seen one of the big differences is the jaws on the high end ones are much better. They’re stronger metal so don’t need to be so chunky which lets them actually fit behind things and be useful.
My old man, now 93 and still kicking, would always say without fail "starting to see it my way now" to anything that intent on staying put once it started moving.
From what surface I've spent to scratch, Vevor is more akin to Harbor Frieght style supply than a simply reseller. They have specific specs they ask manufacturers to meet, as well as a handful of their own designs. This allows them (like HF) to still have a large amount of quality control and quality requirements higher than the cheapest of cheap sticker slapping reseller, but still have a low bottom line to sell at.
Used a bearing puller(circumcision looking thing) to pull timing gear off John Deere engine. No heat, just tightened the hell out of the bolts squishing it together until the gear finally moved enough to pull with the arm puller thingy. Put the gear in the oven at 300deg F for 30 min for assembly. It literally dropped on. Waited overnight for it to cool. Been running great since.
This reminds me of a coworker that did something similar but wasn't quite as thoughtful, he set the oven to the highest setting (280°C if memory serves) and ended up annealing the part so it was soft as butter. Poor dude didn't live that down for years.
You can do 200f if the other part is good and cold, less chance of burning your fingers where the rag comes up short. I've also used a small pan of hot motor oil on a hotplate/camp-stove to heat bearings when an oven wasn't near enough. (Use a cheap kitchen thermometer, or if you're experienced with deep frying the sizzle of any bit of fresh vegetable matter will give you the approximate temp. ).
It took all 15 tons and a 10lb sledge to get a chain sprocket off a baler pickup this summer. I was not going to break out a torch. I also wasn't having a lot of fun being right in the action.
Dude 😂😂😂. " that NO feeling" I know that real uneasy feeling when it's under pressure and you just don't want to touch it. I was in stitches laughing. Keep em coming.
I got one of them vevor toe jacks use for jacking up pumps and blower in wastewater plants served me well for the last 4 years still going strong. Vevor is like industrial harbor freight good and cheap for those couple time you need that one thing.
Just sharing ... the Vevor bolt induction heater is very worth the money ... particularly for someone with an aversion to flames and a bigger aversion to explosive gases.
Worth every penny. Been using one in my shop for heat shrink tooling for a couple years. Gets used 10-20 times a day and very hard use and still going. So far it's outlasted the original mini-ductor that I first bought.
Thanks for giving me a laugh, My very favorite way of home building a PC order a bunch of parts and wait until all hopes of a return are out of question before putting it together only to find all parts are totally incompatible. 😂
I've done this with an incompatible motherboard. Too late to return. So I bought a case that would fit, and cobbled a second computer together from spare parts I had. Sold the resultant afterbith on craigslist, and bought the right motherboard with the proceeds. It's plan that shouldn't have worked so well, and I slyly avoided learning a lesson about ordering components while drinking. Win - win.
Curious how this particular alphabet soup chinesium brand seems to actually want to develop a reputation of "okay" instead of just selling the worst crap ever and rolling the name dice every couple months... I've accidentally bought quite a few Vevor things over the last couple years, and somehow haven't thrown any of them out yet. Maybe in a decade they'll be the next Ryobi or Dewalt or something.
Vevor has definitely proven to be less shit than I expected. First bought one of their products when it was the only thing available late Friday afternoon leading in to a long weekend. Fully expected it to break as I took it out of the box. Instead, the damned thing worked, and has kept working on the odd occasions I've needed it.
Might only be worth 10,000 matches in hades, but... Once you get the gear all set in the stirrups of the puller, cinch it tight, and I then will use an air-hammer. If the puller is gud -n- toit, often one short burst from the air-hammer will release the gear. I apply the air-hammer tip to the shaft. If I have a regular puller, with a bolt on top, I'll apply the flat air-hammer bit and give it a short burst. On a small gear/wheel, like a chainsaw flywheel, I'll loosen the nut (leave it on the shaft) and air-hammer the shaft with a short burst, without a puller, and the flywheel jumps right off. (That's why I leave the nut on the shaft.) YMMV Nice vidjejo.
I was tryink to fix a bent metal thing and I found a 20,000 pound ram pump, puller, spreader, smashalater from Vevor, with tax I paid 118.00 with free shipping. I don't know why it was so cheap, it was new. Anywho, it came and I, the dingus that I am, decided to straighten the front frame on a car with it, and blew the seal. Their support was zero, but I did find a couple of seals for 8 dollars shipped and fixed it, probably better than new, I think the reason it blew was because the original seal had been rolled during production, it sure looked that way and the bolt holding the housing together looked like someone had put a pipe wrench on it, probably to get it to seal enough to ship. I now love the thing and have no idea how I went 75 years without it. My only regret is I'm running out of time to get to use it ,which sucks major arse.
"old folks, once they can't get up off the ground, they're done for." My old man was unbelievably stubborn, and that was the thing that finally got him to the hospital.

channel lock fence pliers are my new jam. taking down a 110 yr old barn, pulled many a wire staple and those nails where ya don't have to pull them, but cant let the ahole be the boss of you.
I used to be an electric motor mechanic. We had a hydraulic 3 jaw big enough you had to hang it off the crane. We’d drape the rubber floor mats from the office over the arms for the very same reason. Good call!
Cant believe youtube allows a video of a man cranking on his rod with a shaft puller. Wouldn't be surprised if AI labeled this is as content permissible to only the holyHUB. Cheers to you.

I bought a VEVOR overhead hoist about a year ago for my home shop. Use it on an Ibeam with a hazard fraught trolley. Have used it a decent amount. Haven’t let the smoke out or lost any limbs. Good for the price, would buy again.
I have one , it pulls like a "schoolboy" but finding a bearing it will fit behind is a rarity!.. as you say for occasional use its worth having in the drawer. I dont mind paying Chinesium prices for Chinesium quality.. but I hate spending "proper " money to have crap arrive in the mail,
Diesel heaters have a small air inlet hole above the glow plug screen that needs cleaning once a year. If you replace the screen make sure it isn't blocking the air inlet.
hate the algorithm and how it influences my viewing habits- havent watched you in too long and I am enjoying seeing you again. You have bestowed upon me the dialect of skookum and if something would chooch, or at best a skookum choocher.
Check the length of the stroke with the right arm, in clockwise motion.. bet the jayzulus thing is wrong in that direction too.. the journals are already cut to perfection for your custom brass extensions 😍
Vevor, they are very very good at making things that look like what they are trying to copy. Ultrasonic cleaners, they have half the power of the more expense ones. Tables, they look like tables but are always flawed in some way. Shelving, 1 inch smaller in all dimensions then what they copied.
😂😂 I was flinching like shit just waiting for it to pop off you're a legend mate bloody legend love your work keep it up and you taught me so much over the years
By strange coincidence I heard the song Troglodyte ( Cave Man ) by the Jimmy Castor Bunch , this morning . I can't believe that song made it to # 6 on Billboard Hot 100 back in 1972
I do small engine repair out of my garage and have used a few of those Vevor pressure washer pumps. Sold a customer a 1" pump, works like a hot damn Tried out a 3/4" one and it works good but the little Honda motor attached to it was tired and had trouble building up to full pressure before it would disengage. Next vertical shaft one I'll try their 7/8" pump but so far so good.
You're a braver man than I to use that hydraulic hair spray machine... seems cumbersome with the pump handle where it is influencing what you're trying to do 'jacking' it of in another direction. I prefer my 5-ton triple jaw puller from Gray tools. Cost me a bit under $400 I think, and it features jaw clamps to keep them where you want them while dialing down on the screw. If you need more grunt, I believe that they also have a 10-ton (twice the pull, about twice the price) variant as well. If those pullers won't pull off the parts, you don't need them. Cheers man!
Those diesel heaters are fantastic. Put one in my pickup and it paid for itself in fuel savings in the first winter not having to idle to stay warm sitting in it.
Liking most of my VEVOR parts so far , got 4 years on my distiller , used twice / three times a week . I have an adjustable pin spanner not many miles up but nicely built and works awesome . Looking at a VEVOR liner puller after seeing one looking strong on the Clint & Kevin channel .
I’ve had good experiences with vevor. I use their mag drill to put new holes in parking lot poles for new lighting. I’ve also used a few of their nema3 enclosures for outdoor contactors and the like
I've had nothing but good luck with Vevor stuff (so far: rolling workbench, vacuum freezer bag sealer, sausage maker, gun cabinet, small metal bandsaw and multiprocess welder). I also bought some change gears for a baby lathe from them. For the price, the quality is (so far) outstanding. Now, some of the stuff they sell will be gaaahhhbage for sure, but I haven't run into any yet.
first tool might have even worked if the middle coontact was farther than or at least inline with the ready rod coontacts. so 2 nuts with spacers also on the other side to fix the ready rods and align the strongback so the middle screw is flush with the bottom of the strongback.
I've got a Vevor countertop distiller. Been cranking out distilled water since I bought it. Came with some really interesting translated instructions though.
Have the same puller, but had to get it without the case as that ‘model’ wasn’t in stock - shame as nice to have it stored neatly. Used it recently to get some 6317 bearings (180mm OD) off a motor shaft - popped em free no problem! Well worth the cost even if it only lasts a couple of jobs…
Machinist here...This was my dirty lil secret for years. I could get measuring tools as accurate or better then say Brown and Sharpe, or Starret! Yet they cost 1/4 as much direct from manufacturer in China. Good STuff! The reason I hype them is I bought the EXACT knockoffs of tooling I already had. So I could have a second less valuable set I leave at work. But dangit, they never broke or wore out! I have some of the original TNT tools and some other brand that were cherry picked by the manufacturer for me. They do that you know! It just takes 2+ weeks shipping...Bleh I even had a company in Chinas president contact me and we spoke at length about some HID lights i wanted that didnt exist... 3 weeks later I had a 3 sets of the very first dual output, selectable wattage 55-110 watt Hids. And I could see signs light up over a mile away, and the road light like a cone of daylight for 3/4 of a mile. NEVER hit a deer again.
Got my new knife AND the old knife upgrade today! Put it together and I'm falling in love all over again. I CAN NOT wait until Uncle Bumble makes the same style for the 1/4 inch break away blades.
I used the Harbor Freight variety of the same puller on some stuck sprockets on a 2½" shaft and a 3" shaft and it handled that without breaking anything.
I'm planning on getting one of the diesel heaters for my shop. I'll likely go for something a little bit better than Vevor for that. I've got several Vevor tools, and so far the only one that's let me down is the battery cable crimpers and that's just because it's near impossible to figure out which set of the jaws to use as they're only marked in metric, and I'm working with AWG cables. I am alkso thinking abut ordering Vevors version of a port-a-power.
I bought the 5 ton version of this hydraulic puller at Harbor Freight several years ago for $60 because I had a coupon & figured I needed it for something. It sat in the case for months until I was working on brakes on a 1 ton Dodge & the rear drums would NOT come off no matter what I tried, even an Oxy/Acetylene torch. That puller paid for itself that day. When that drum finally broke loose it was so loud my son came out of the house to see if I died lol.
I got me sen, one of these little fellas , new job ,- new tool. As you say. Anyhow just like you , it's now sat on the shelf after 1 job. 😊 It worked !🌋
One tool I got from vevor is a brake line flaring tool, the bench vice mounted one, which I paid like 100euro for, I had to get a different die for it, because it didn't come with the DIN one, so I paid 20 euro for a good die, it's the same style tool as the 300euro+ ones (the die I got was actually for one of the expensive ones) and it did an awesome job on cunifer brake lines, I tested the contact pattern of the flared lines and it fit perfectly (then again, quality die from other manufacturer) So far from what I've seen the quality is decent, especially for the price. For someone having a home shop it's a lot better than the aliexpress stuff, for a professional use some stuff might be useful, but usually I'd go for better quality brands if you use something every day
@erik_dk842 yeah, in such cases that's not a bad idea, although renting a quality tool is probably better for professionals, since they have no time to mess with the cheap one and figure out what to do to make it work well, time is money afterall
I just picked one of these up from the old HFT to remove a brake rotor that was seized on the wife's soccer wagon. Obviously doesn't work in this situation, but I hand threaded a few of the lug nuts back on so when that thing let go it didn't have me doing a dramatic impression of lieutenant Dan. And when it did go, let me tell you, it sounded like a rifle going off right in the middle of the village. Had my neighbor lady run over to see if I was all right. And what she walked up on was my maniacal laughter and me holding a tool that looks like it could drag the got'am planet out of orbit.
I agree rare use heavy tools always seem slightly crappy and break often never sure if it's we use them wrong or they figure if it does the job 2 or 3 times it's good enough to go noticed 10 years

Put the gear in the oven at 300deg F for 30 min for assembly. It literally dropped on. Waited overnight for it to cool. Been running great since.
This reminds me of a coworker that did something similar but wasn't quite as thoughtful, he set the oven to the highest setting (280°C if memory serves) and ended up annealing the part so it was soft as butter. Poor dude didn't live that down for years.
You can do 200f if the other part is good and cold, less chance of burning your fingers where the rag comes up short. I've also used a small pan of hot motor oil on a hotplate/camp-stove to heat bearings when an oven wasn't near enough. (Use a cheap kitchen thermometer, or if you're experienced with deep frying the sizzle of any bit of fresh vegetable matter will give you the approximate temp. ).
The gear-on-stove burner is how we put the timing gears on aircooled VW cranks back in the 1860’s

Well, that's just where I live now!

You just need Vevor hydraulic geezer lifter.

It took all 15 tons and a 10lb sledge to get a chain sprocket off a baler pickup this summer. I was not going to break out a torch. I also wasn't having a lot of fun being right in the action.
I love amazing people with the ir guns and adding a small amount of painters tape to see the difference in temp, especially stainless parts.
Dude 😂😂😂.
" that NO feeling"
I know that real uneasy feeling when it's under pressure and you just don't want to touch it. I was in stitches laughing.
Keep em coming.
I got one of them vevor toe jacks use for jacking up pumps and blower in wastewater plants served me well for the last 4 years still going strong. Vevor is like industrial harbor freight good and cheap for those couple time you need that one thing.
I bought one of their liner pullers and it works just as good as the Kent-Moore I used to use.
Steve1989 ought to be proud. Nice.
One final pump and the spent puller flopped to left onto the floor. 😂
I have been in Mechanic all my life that’s pretty cool stuff. Keep bringing it. Love you man.💪🏻👍🏻🔧🔨🇨🇦🏁
Just sharing ... the Vevor bolt induction heater is very worth the money ... particularly for someone with an aversion to flames and a bigger aversion to explosive gases.
Worth every penny. Been using one in my shop for heat shrink tooling for a couple years. Gets used 10-20 times a day and very hard use and still going. So far it's outlasted the original mini-ductor that I first bought.
Thanks for giving me a laugh, My very favorite way of home building a PC order a bunch of parts and wait until all hopes of a return are out of question before putting it together only to find all parts are totally incompatible. 😂
It's the only way.
@@arduinoversusevil2025and very educational.
I've done this with an incompatible motherboard. Too late to return. So I bought a case that would fit, and cobbled a second computer together from spare parts I had. Sold the resultant afterbith on craigslist, and bought the right motherboard with the proceeds. It's plan that shouldn't have worked so well, and I slyly avoided learning a lesson about ordering components while drinking. Win - win.
I was just at a restraunt and saw a Vevor soft serve ice cream machine... they are making everything!
Ja, I've been looking at a meat grinder. They have bandsaws too... But do they have smokers?
Nope.
@@arduinoversusevil2025 they will now
Curious how this particular alphabet soup chinesium brand seems to actually want to develop a reputation of "okay" instead of just selling the worst crap ever and rolling the name dice every couple months...
I've accidentally bought quite a few Vevor things over the last couple years, and somehow haven't thrown any of them out yet. Maybe in a decade they'll be the next Ryobi or Dewalt or something.
Agreed. I bougth a bunch of their things, and so far for the home gamer I am, they're super.
Vevor has definitely proven to be less shit than I expected. First bought one of their products when it was the only thing available late Friday afternoon leading in to a long weekend. Fully expected it to break as I took it out of the box.
Instead, the damned thing worked, and has kept working on the odd occasions I've needed it.
2:09 nice HPRE (hydraulic puller ready to eat)
I used to never give all the chinesium tools a second look. But some of them ain’t tea bag now. Even Festool is making tools in China now
My 80s cheapo harbor freight tools are made in japan. Now a days Japanese made is premium. The circle of shit.
@@ionstorm66Can't work the same way in China - the mindset is all wrong. But I have high hopes for pakistan in fifty years
@@Bobo-ox7fj Their devastating earthquakes are more frequent than 50yrs
All my Vevor shit works great, no complaints so far.
Might only be worth 10,000 matches in hades, but... Once you get the gear all set in the stirrups of the puller, cinch it tight, and I then will use an air-hammer. If the puller is gud -n- toit, often one short burst from the air-hammer will release the gear. I apply the air-hammer tip to the shaft. If I have a regular puller, with a bolt on top, I'll apply the flat air-hammer bit and give it a short burst. On a small gear/wheel, like a chainsaw flywheel, I'll loosen the nut (leave it on the shaft) and air-hammer the shaft with a short burst, without a puller, and the flywheel jumps right off. (That's why I leave the nut on the shaft.) YMMV Nice vidjejo.
I was tryink to fix a bent metal thing and I found a 20,000 pound ram pump, puller, spreader, smashalater from Vevor, with tax I paid 118.00 with free shipping. I don't know why it was so cheap, it was new. Anywho, it came and I, the dingus that I am, decided to straighten the front frame on a car with it, and blew the seal. Their support was zero, but I did find a couple of seals for 8 dollars shipped and fixed it, probably better than new, I think the reason it blew was because the original seal had been rolled during production, it sure looked that way and the bolt holding the housing together looked like someone had put a pipe wrench on it, probably to get it to seal enough to ship.
I now love the thing and have no idea how I went 75 years without it. My only regret is I'm running out of time to get to use it ,which sucks major arse.
I got a body part, what looks like that first puller!
Mine looks like the dyngus end!
"old folks, once they can't get up off the ground, they're done for." My old man was unbelievably stubborn, and that was the thing that finally got him to the hospital. I don't remember if that's what made me push harder, or made him say yes, probably both. Big C, stage 4, he was gone within a month.
Hey my mom has a subaru but my other mom drives a volvo!
I had a co-worker who is a trans man. He was really cool and we talked a lot about guy stuff - not sex, though. It cracked me up when he mentioned his mom and her wife.
I bought a Two diffuser pond aerator system from Vevor at 1/3 the price of all the other offerings, and couldn't be happier!
Now you gotta teach us about bearing spacers!
channel lock fence pliers are my new jam. taking down a 110 yr old barn, pulled many a wire staple and those nails where ya don't have to pull them, but cant let the ahole be the boss of you.
When you have a sketchy set up like that wrap of thick blanket around it to dampen flying parts
I used to be an electric motor mechanic. We had a hydraulic 3 jaw big enough you had to hang it off the crane. We’d drape the rubber floor mats from the office over the arms for the very same reason.
Good call!
That’s no fun at all and will make a shite video🙄
"Go Fish! Old man!"
4:37 Damn, I have actually bought a harbor freight bearing puller to work on the subaru owned by my lesbian parents
Cant believe youtube allows a video of a man cranking on his rod with a shaft puller. Wouldn't be surprised if AI labeled this is as content permissible to only the holyHUB. Cheers to you.
I do appreciate that at 5:20 you had the camera at a safe distance away from chinesium danger!!!
After seeing your fancy pliers, I started humming the Corb Lund tune, Hair in my eyes like a highland steer
"has anybody seen my lucky fencing pliers?, they didn't cost nothin cause they come with the truck, and old uncle Hugh is still bringin me luck"
I thought you were gonna mention the song “hard on equipment”
I bought this puller for work a few months ago. I have used it a good amount and it works great.
I bought a VEVOR overhead hoist about a year ago for my home shop. Use it on an Ibeam with a hazard fraught trolley.
Have used it a decent amount. Haven’t let the smoke out or lost any limbs. Good for the price, would buy again.
I have one , it pulls like a "schoolboy" but finding a bearing it will fit behind is a rarity!.. as you say for occasional use its worth having in the drawer. I dont mind paying Chinesium prices for Chinesium quality.. but I hate spending "proper " money to have crap arrive in the mail,
The last fifteen seconds of the video had my sides in stitches. 💀

Diesel heaters have a small air inlet hole above the glow plug screen that needs cleaning once a year. If you replace the screen make sure it isn't blocking the air inlet.
That looks like a perfect way what for gettin summer teeth

Check the length of the stroke with the right arm, in clockwise motion.. bet the jayzulus thing is wrong in that direction too.. the journals are already cut to perfection for your custom brass extensions 😍
My heart dropped with yours when I saw the calipers at the end.
Have had good luck with the vevor junk. (Giant ultrasonic cleaner) Pullers make me nervous too. Tore up my shoulder and got some PT when a jaw broke.
Vevor, they are very very good at making things that look like what they are trying to copy.
Ultrasonic cleaners, they have half the power of the more expense ones.
Tables, they look like tables but are always flawed in some way.
Shelving, 1 inch smaller in all dimensions then what they copied.

By strange coincidence I heard the song Troglodyte ( Cave Man ) by the Jimmy Castor Bunch , this morning . I can't believe that song made it to # 6 on Billboard Hot 100 back in 1972
Not a very catchy tune. Bertha Butt in hot pants. The hair bit carried the whole ditty.
I do small engine repair out of my garage and have used a few of those Vevor pressure washer pumps.
Sold a customer a 1" pump, works like a hot damn
Tried out a 3/4" one and it works good but the little Honda motor attached to it was tired and had trouble building up to full pressure before it would disengage.
Next vertical shaft one I'll try their 7/8" pump but so far so good.
You're a braver man than I to use that hydraulic hair spray machine... seems cumbersome with the pump handle where it is influencing what you're trying to do 'jacking' it of in another direction. I prefer my 5-ton triple jaw puller from Gray tools. Cost me a bit under $400 I think, and it features jaw clamps to keep them where you want them while dialing down on the screw.
If you need more grunt, I believe that they also have a 10-ton (twice the pull, about twice the price) variant as well. If those pullers won't pull off the parts, you don't need them.
Cheers man!
Those diesel heaters are fantastic. Put one in my pickup and it paid for itself in fuel savings in the first winter not having to idle to stay warm sitting in it.
Liking most of my VEVOR parts so far , got 4 years on my distiller , used twice / three times a week . I have an adjustable pin spanner not many miles up but nicely built and works awesome . Looking at a VEVOR liner puller after seeing one looking strong on the Clint & Kevin channel .
I’ve had good experiences with vevor. I use their mag drill to put new holes in parking lot poles for new lighting. I’ve also used a few of their nema3 enclosures for outdoor contactors and the like
I've had nothing but good luck with Vevor stuff (so far: rolling workbench, vacuum freezer bag sealer, sausage maker, gun cabinet, small metal bandsaw and multiprocess welder). I also bought some change gears for a baby lathe from them. For the price, the quality is (so far) outstanding. Now, some of the stuff they sell will be gaaahhhbage for sure, but I haven't run into any yet.
first tool might have even worked if the middle coontact was farther than or at least inline with the ready rod coontacts. so 2 nuts with spacers also on the other side to fix the ready rods and align the strongback so the middle screw is flush with the bottom of the strongback.
My Vevor vacum pump and A/C hoses work great. My Vevor 12in flat top is ok (uneven heat, sharp metal edges). All were great value for the price.
I've got a Vevor countertop distiller. Been cranking out distilled water since I bought it. Came with some really interesting translated instructions though.
Getting better every day, quite unlike my lumbar spine! Cheers brother.
Have the same puller, but had to get it without the case as that ‘model’ wasn’t in stock - shame as nice to have it stored neatly. Used it recently to get some 6317 bearings (180mm OD) off a motor shaft - popped em free no problem! Well worth the cost even if it only lasts a couple of jobs…
Machinist here...This was my dirty lil secret for years. I could get measuring tools as accurate or better then say Brown and Sharpe, or Starret! Yet they cost 1/4 as much direct from manufacturer in China. Good STuff! The reason I hype them is I bought the EXACT knockoffs of tooling I already had. So I could have a second less valuable set I leave at work.
But dangit, they never broke or wore out! I have some of the original TNT tools and some other brand that were cherry picked by the manufacturer for me. They do that you know!
It just takes 2+ weeks shipping...Bleh I even had a company in Chinas president contact me and we spoke at length about some HID lights i wanted that didnt exist...
3 weeks later I had a 3 sets of the very first dual output, selectable wattage 55-110 watt Hids. And I could see signs light up over a mile away, and the road light like a cone of daylight for 3/4 of a mile. NEVER hit a deer again.
Got my new knife AND the old knife upgrade today! Put it together and I'm falling in love all over again.
I CAN NOT wait until Uncle Bumble makes the same style for the 1/4 inch break away blades.
I have bought a lot of Vevor tools and equipment and have had no problems with any of them so far.
I used the Harbor Freight variety of the same puller on some stuck sprockets on a 2½" shaft and a 3" shaft and it handled that without breaking anything.
I'm planning on getting one of the diesel heaters for my shop. I'll likely go for something a little bit better than Vevor for that.
I've got several Vevor tools, and so far the only one that's let me down is the battery cable crimpers and that's just because it's near impossible to figure out which set of the jaws to use as they're only marked in metric, and I'm working with AWG cables.
I am alkso thinking abut ordering Vevors version of a port-a-power.
I bought the 5 ton version of this hydraulic puller at Harbor Freight several years ago for $60 because I had a coupon & figured I needed it for something. It sat in the case for months until I was working on brakes on a 1 ton Dodge & the rear drums would NOT come off no matter what I tried, even an Oxy/Acetylene torch. That puller paid for itself that day. When that drum finally broke loose it was so loud my son came out of the house to see if I died lol.
I got me sen, one of these little fellas , new job ,- new tool. As you say. Anyhow just like you , it's now sat on the shelf after 1 job. 😊
It worked !🌋
I own this puller and while it’s not made of gold and fantasy dream materials, it has worked quite well for me on some very tough pulls.
Great Steve1989MREinfo reference! How do you have time to watch these other channels?
Was looking at a Vevor 100' rooter, they look to be junk but if they get you out of a tight spot a time or 2, worth it!
One tool I got from vevor is a brake line flaring tool, the bench vice mounted one, which I paid like 100euro for, I had to get a different die for it, because it didn't come with the DIN one, so I paid 20 euro for a good die, it's the same style tool as the 300euro+ ones (the die I got was actually for one of the expensive ones) and it did an awesome job on cunifer brake lines, I tested the contact pattern of the flared lines and it fit perfectly (then again, quality die from other manufacturer) So far from what I've seen the quality is decent, especially for the price. For someone having a home shop it's a lot better than the aliexpress stuff, for a professional use some stuff might be useful, but usually I'd go for better quality brands if you use something every day
The thing is, many professionals also only need a specific tool on very rare occasions, so a Vevor one might be plenty good.
@erik_dk842 yeah, in such cases that's not a bad idea, although renting a quality tool is probably better for professionals, since they have no time to mess with the cheap one and figure out what to do to make it work well, time is money afterall
"Working on your two moms' Subaru". 🤣🤣🤣🤣
I just picked one of these up from the old HFT to remove a brake rotor that was seized on the wife's soccer wagon. Obviously doesn't work in this situation, but I hand threaded a few of the lug nuts back on so when that thing let go it didn't have me doing a dramatic impression of lieutenant Dan. And when it did go, let me tell you, it sounded like a rifle going off right in the middle of the village. Had my neighbor lady run over to see if I was all right. And what she walked up on was my maniacal laughter and me holding a tool that looks like it could drag the got'am planet out of orbit.
Im glad to see you're back my Canadian friend
Love to see you review some more Vevor products, thinking about their 14” metal chop saw.
Maybe You could find a friend that would draw up some connecting rods and run them on His CNC machine over the holidays. 🎅🏽
Harmonic (twice, cuz I broke it), and wrist pins (press fit) last month. I feel your pain. Thanks!
Thanks Ave, received the little cutter and mods for the girthy member.
I agree rare use heavy tools always seem slightly crappy and break often never sure if it's we use them wrong or they figure if it does the job 2 or 3 times it's good enough to go noticed 10 years
