Reminds me of my brother's tool shed when I moved accross the country to go work with him. Between mixing matching and buying some new parts was able to get quite a few of them up and running again and he said they were all junked out, lol. He loved me coming to work with him. Would be great to work in Dean's shop for a while
Some parts are easily stripped, and expensive to purchase, such as housings, and controllers. Other parts are almost impossible to purchase because the manufacturer just don't sell much in the way of parts. That is the sort of things I was talking about keeping for parts.
Hi Dean, I really enjoy watching you at work, and I learn too. Could you possibly do a piece on grease, please? What types of grease and when to use them. What grease for nylon. When a sticky grease. When a thin grease. What grease for wheel bearings, etc. Thanks
@@harpintn sometimes it's just not good value to remove a part. From a business perspective, a part costs £10 new and it costs £5 in time to strip it out of another machine, risking the possibility you are wasting you time as it's broken too. You can't warrant the s/h part either so it's better to order a new one and the customer pays a bit extra for new. Equally, having a pile of broken £50 drills occupying space "just in case" is not good use of unit space that most people would be renting. On the other hand I suspect the expensive hammers or stuff where spares are like rocking horse crap will end up in the corner of the store somewhere as they can justify their presence. The *only* purpose of those machines would be to help out customers with a cheap fix and in most cases that doesn't put dinner on the table - at some point you cut your losses and chuck out the stuff made of hoardinium ...
Given how many tools we see you repair, it's not a massive pile. It reminds us that you save many many tools from going to the landfill and that's a great thing!
@@harpintn Do not worry about the landfills getting full, the holes that are created to make those products are always going to be larger than the volume of trash being returned to the earth from which it came.
@@harpintn Not to worry, the products that become trash are made from materials that come from even larger holes than the landfills are created from. It is a damn shame that some people(s) _just dump waste into the ocean._
I guess I get it if the cost was unrealistic to repair vs. just buying a replacement, but man.. there's quite a heap of money there in that pile. It is a shame, but this is they cycle of life I suppose. It sure looked like a few of those might be worth hanging on to..
Seriously tho the ones that are working you should hand them in to a men's shed somewhere .they would appreciate them more than anyone else. Dean do you accept packages of tools for repair or do you just accept walk in to the shop type custom.??
Sorry only doing repairs for our own local customers. Not taking any posted in repairs now. Anything that was repairs has the parts removed again. So they no longer work now
@@deandohertygreaser You do the work, you undo the work, and then have to throw the machine away. That's got to sting. I hope you are getting paid for all that.
Hullo there, Dean, my good lad, have you finish fixing me tools that I dropped at your shop some time ago when I was knee high to a grasshopper ? Just me asking, to be sure, to be sure
@@deandohertygreaser Had a bloke come in less than a week before the year was up to pick up a bunch of disc cutters and a few cordless bits recently. I was gutted, in my head i'd already spent the money i'd have made from selling it all. Had to fess up to borrowing the coil off of one of them though 😆
I dont believe how much there was....why did they send them to you if they weren't going to pick them up unless they weren't able to be fix but after watching you im sure you were able to fix most of them.
Someone already mentioned this in the comment and I haven't watched all the video yet but I'm assuming this is all going to scrap and what I was thinking is what about donating these tools to a local Tech College or school and let young people take them apart diagnose them and realize they can't fix them it's too expensive so they understand the whole business
Garbage is not a thing, but a relationship. It's what happens to things when we can no longer discern a ready use for them, nor imagine a use for others.
my thoughts exactly. Hikoki tools are not explicitly outstanding mostly, but these nailers are just awesome, not sure of Deans opinion but I think they are probably the best nailgun you can buy right now. No Gas, solid construction and not crazy expensive.
The time involved to strip things down and the fact that they can only charge the customer about 30% of the cost of a replacement, may make it not viable to strip things down for parts. Then there's the amount of room they will take up, all for things they might never get a need for. I can understand why some things will be worth just their scrap value.
I ll take them and rebuild them to Frankenstein Monsters to fix them. 😅😅😅. Why you dont fix and sell them? Or are they So out if shape that its easyer to buy a New one?
Wait! If customers never picked them up, does that mean you fixed all or most of them? Why scrap those if that's the case? Plenty of charities out there building things for the needy who'd be happy to take donations of working tools.
no, the customers never came back to pick up the these tools what where not worth fixing. a few where fixed and never picked up, but the parts have since been taken back out agian.
Don’t scrap that hitachi nr83 framer. That thing is built like a tank and you can rebuild it, parts are readily available too. Those are industry standard for stick framers and there’s a reason why everybody loves that gun.
The hoarding side of me is going, I'll just keep them incase they come in handy 😂

My dad used to repair TVs etc in the 80-00s. The shop floor space was taken up with fixed units that people never came back for.
That's a problem I have so. Also the reason why I don't take posted in tools. People forget or change thier minds.
I don't believe that you are going to scrap them! To many valuable parts!!!!!!!!!!! We know you by now!! Thanks Dean!!!!!!!!!!!!!
My thought exactly. Way too many parts there.

Send them to Bulgaria. Second tools are valuable here.
Oof that hurts my soul😢.
Seafood restaurants throw away crablegs,carpenters Ipe,etc.😅.
Don't store the bosch hammer like that or the hammer action will seize up lol😂
Man I'd love to have those Makitas even if they don't work.
There's a special place in hell for people not collecting the items they left for repair.
Possibly a company that bought new and will get back money with VAT return, that they would normally have to spend on repair of used tool.
Hey Dean, what's wrong with the old GBH 5-40 DCE. Might need some parts for mine.
Also what's wrong with the GSH11E?
Have you done any videos on the dch033, other than the bit holder?
Do you own the knobs and bobs shop, or are an employee?
You could probably make a video on making ONE Super Ultra TOOL from all those tools, it would do really well

How you threw them in a corner is zakkly like mine go in my van Friday afternoon home time.
Do they work? Did you fix some/all of them?
The final destination fir all tools 😭

Strip for 2nd spares.i strip and keep some parts.
Surely some of the items could be broken for spares?? I'm a farmer so we keep everything "just in case" and then run out of room in the workshop
yea, my just in case reserve is already fill. ill keep some but not many
Definitely would seem to be some quantity of decent spares that could come out of that stack. Good luck with that!
Would those items include tools you have already repaired that the customer didn't pick up ?
Yes, but the parts used have already been taken out again.

@@tnbspotter5360 I believe he has a very understanding boss, unlike mine. I asked me for a payrise and I said *no!* What a prick I -was- still am. 🤦♂
in Canada we have a program that sends old power tools to 3rd world countries...
Hullo there, Dean, my good lad, have you finish fixing me tools that I dropped at your shop some time ago when I was knee high to a grasshopper ? Just me asking, to be sure, to be sure
It's a real problem, i have the same issue at work, How long do you give them? We legally have to keep them a year before we can sell/dump them.
yea, thats how long we wait also. people dont realise how much space they take up.
@@deandohertygreaser Had a bloke come in less than a week before the year was up to pick up a bunch of disc cutters and a few cordless bits recently.

Send it to me 😭😂
It seems to me,power Tools have a rough life nowadays
Oddly satisfying !!!
I love the way He just chucks the Tools about, mind you it would piss me off too if People didn't pay for the repair work done on their tools 😆👍
I dont believe how much there was....why did they send them to you if they weren't going to pick them up unless they weren't able to be fix but after watching you im sure you were able to fix most of them.
Request to add “don’t be a hoarder / it has potential” audio 😂
Can you give away the ones that work?

0:41 that bosch charger has a design problem mine broke in 3 months, they blow up by themselves
Dean, fix the good stuff and sell it.
Fire 🔥 😊😊😊
Can't you use some for parts.. just in case
Ahhhhhhh, that is a bunch O Scrap. Stripe for spare parts, pitch the rest
I guess the “war on waste” is losing…
How can I contact you I want to buy some products
What is stopping you from selling them?
They aren't working? 😲
I can't believe it. But of course it has a good reason to do.
Garbage is not a thing, but a relationship. It's what happens to things when we can no longer discern a ready use for them, nor imagine a use for others.
That Hikoki nailer hurt the most. Maybe Hilti hammers too.
Yes, it really hurts.
That's the first hikoki gun iv scrapped of. But I also have a brand new one that i am cannibalizing for parts. So no need to hold onto it.
my thoughts exactly. Hikoki tools are not explicitly outstanding mostly, but these nailers are just awesome, not sure of Deans opinion but I think they are probably the best nailgun you can buy right now. No Gas, solid construction and not crazy expensive.
Ur not gonna save them for parts fella?
Sorry,been out of town taking care of some family business ive come to pick up my tool...you did what!!!🤬

Thank you for clarifying. I was a bit confused there.
I guess it's all junk but if anything is in working order, consider donating it to a local tech college.
Please stop throwing them into a pile. Hand tools don't want to be thrown into a pile.
Seems like makita and Milwaukee make the worst shit
Nah makita has the best quality
you clearly don't know parkside
