Okay, hi, my name is steve shriner and I'm going to give a little demonstration of a grooming, a bloom stock because irises are beautiful. But of course, once a flower blooms out, they can remain more beautiful. If they're groomed one thing to do is once a flower has bloomed, you can grasp it at the at the bottom of it at the neck and just bend it back, and it will break off like that. And you dispose of this spin flower sometimes we're left with this husk. You can tear that off like that. But in this case, since this flowers also been has bloomed out to make it more attractive. What's left. I will clip this part of the bloom stock off like that as well as taking this one off want to be careful, you don't break off the flower, it's still in bloom. But this one off and since there's, nothing else left on this one, you could cut that too. So I am done flowers inside can last about a week. If you've groomed them down.

Okay, so I purchased this best choice products, little portable washer because I live in apartment. Well, when I got it, the directions they're, not directions. So I had to figure out how to use this thing on my own. You get two closes. This end will go right here. And this end would hook to you faucet, well, doesn't quite work that way because you would have to hold it under the faucet. So I used booking. I built up this little temporary pedestal next to my bathtub to put it to you. I took the drain hose, and I stuck it over the tub. And you've got wash timer here, mess up mine for 15 every time depends on how long you want to wash it for yeah, select switch, which is your standard wash draining your hose and for a soft load. And then you have your spinner timer spinner aside as a whole other thing, it's regular. And here it is you put in as many clothes as you want I'm, not doing this tonight I'll do one tomorrow that'll show you all that. But you put in as many clothes, as you want in there, don't pack it too full don't pack, it too tight. If you want them to get clean, then what I do is I've got a little bucket, and I put my id and my downey in the bucket. And then I felt earth water repeatedly in the air until the water levels where I thought it should be close. The lid, I turn it to the 15 and let it run. And it runs pretty quick and it's accurate only 15 minutes when it gets done. I set this over to drink and I'll, let my host packed right now, while doing that, I rinse my clothes, wring out on the spend side you got that lid, a second lid and then here's a cover lid. It comes with it. And you see this little side is the tub smaller. So it doesn't hold as much as you have washed. But yeah, I take my stuff. I put it over in here. And this is the topper this one that was then I pulled out you set it down in there on top of the clothes. Yeah, click that down in first in order for the whole thing to shut then this down. And then I turn it around for five minutes. It spins out drains down into the tub. When I when that gets done, I add cold water in, and I run it. A second time that way I'm sure that also dirt everything that is in the tub comes out. This is your whole wash machine. I just received this on wednesday, I have it ran. I don't have it plugged in right now. But I've got my little cord right here with this. I bet he'll trip I keep it unplugged when not used used he's, got plug holders in the back. But in the end, I can either this is lightweight. I can pick it up one hand. I can lift it up and let the host continue finish, straining everything that's in it into the tub, or I can take the hose pipe down into this little book it. I have set down here and let the excess drain out, which is only a tiny bit. But the reason why I'm posting this is because there's, no directions to tell you how to properly use this. And this is the way that I figured out I'm using it, it's, simple, it's, easy and this. I could not believe how dirty the water was. And I mean, closed, some of them never hadn't even been used. They were washed, but they had just thrown down by the baby. I got a two and a half year old granddaughter at two of those. And then I've got a one year old grandson, and they like go through and pull stuff out. But even though those have been ran through the washing machine all the dirt that came out. I mean, socks that wound up extremely white again and clean with no dirt on them. It actually gets them clean. The spin side spins it to where it is almost completely dry. It is not a dryer it as they wash on this side, spend the water out on this side. And then you hate you clothes around. But being in an apartment with no washer/dryer access in the apartment. This is simpler than me going to the laundry mountain wasting money. So this hundred dollars was well worth it. I've already washed five loads and is nice, but I don't recommend you washing, and he kind of tried to wash any kind of comforters or stuff like that jeans adult jeans. I've washed two three pairs at a time. Maybe the more you put in there, the less likely clean it's gonna get, but you it does do a good size load with the baby stuff. I had it piled up to about this far with clothes. And then I fill the rest up with water, and it got it very clean and also on this wash timer side, just so you know, when you turn on the wash it'll, twist and turn for a few seconds, maybe 20 seconds and then it'll stop it'll, make a click and it'll stop and then it'll do it again, click, stop click, stop. And it does it. The whole 15 minutes, it's, not anything's wrong with your washing machine it's, the way it works. And it does get it clean because it's flipping the clothes through you can open the lid. You can watch it tomorrow. I will do a video where you can see it being done. Draining is simple easy. And spin is simple easy. You don't even have to bring the clothes out take them from one side, put it in the other side, spin it, but your cold water in spin it again, just spin it till your water comes out your drainpipe, clear hope. This helps somebody else because for me, it was a dumb dumb figure at out situation. And I tried watching other youtube videos, but they confused me anymore, because they had their load already washed. They wasn't showing this wasn't showing that one guy said, it was solar and it wasn't so I'm, just trying to help somebody out if they're trying to sit and watch through videos to be here to have a good day. Good night, I'm going to bed I'll.

And now for something completely different, the larch, well, okay, it's not a large. But any of you guys who grew up watching monty python's, flying circus, you might recognize that skit today. I want to show you a red bud tree. And what you're looking at in front of you here. This is what's known as a forest pansy red, bud. So the red blood tree, they grow maybe 20 25 feet tall. They are what's known as an understory tree when you see them in awhile, they actually grow underneath the taller trees. And the cool thing about the red bud. And the reason that I I really like this tree is it flowers in the early spring before it leaves out. So if you look at this red bud, right now, and I will see if we can focus for you, it is just chock full o. Flowers, see all those flowers there and they're going to another like I don't know, maybe three four days a week tops. The whole top of this tree is just going to be covered in absolutely gorgeous, red flowers. So we're early in the year, we've got a really cool flowering tree, what makes forth pansy different than a plain red. Bud is forest. Pansy has a burgundy color to the foliage it's, not super dark. But when the foliage comes out its burgundy, oh, it does kind of bleach out as the season goes now. Forest pansies is the cultivar quite often grown for a situation like you're seeing here where I've got it on the corner of the house and you'll. Notice, I've got it a good I'm going to say at least eight possibly nine or ten feet away from the house give it plenty of space to grow. And the other thing about forest tanja's because it's, usually grown by nurseries, they'll grow them, you know as a single stem tree, but quite often you also see them growing in clumps. You can get them either way. I think the single stem is really cool for near the house. But if you're doing like a long tree or something away from the house, I would give the the clump form a chance to I think it's, pretty neat there's forest, pansy there's, your habit of the which will usually find in the nursery industry and then I'm going to show you the flowers in bloom. Here, really cool, absolutely gorgeous in full bloom, it's, an eyecatcher and then I'm going to show you forced tansy some foliage here. And again, you know, so you've got the beautiful flower in the spring, but you've still got that burgundy foliage to kind of carry you through the year. Okay, we just were right over here. Look at this tree, and then right across the street. We have just a plain ceressus canadensis, which is a red bud and you'll. Also notice that this is a multi stem form and it's been there. A while this will give you a good idea that how big a red bud wants to get and you'll see that you know, the plain red by the flowers are very similar with the forest pansy and the plain red bud. This looks a little bit farther advanced, but you just see how chockfull of blooms, these branches are let's even get some in focus for you look at all those beautiful flowers. So this is ceressus canadensis. And again, this would be the multi stem form. I think it looks great in the middle of a yard like this. I also think it'd make a nice a nice feature like in a woodland planting or along the edge of the woods. Just to give you something interesting look at, but I don't think and go wrong with with either version again, since this is ceressus, canadensis you're, not going to get that burgundy foliage. But for two weeks of the year, it's going to be absolutely gorgeous. And then it kind of blends into the background to be honest, whereas the one across the street, the forest pansy does have the burgundy foliage, which is going to give you a little bit more interest to the season thanks for watching folks you.

This is chris or landscaping. One of the many services that we provide is patio cleaning. This is a brick patio that we have installed. And the reason why it's a little bit whitish number one, we just power washed it and the to clean it off. And the reason why it's whitish at this point is because we installed in between the joints of every paver is a relatively new product called polymeric sand. And what that does is after you sweep it into the joints and wet it down. It there's actually a binder in there that still makes it permeable. So some of the water can still go through the joints, but it hibbitts any weeds growth any ants from borrowing in there. The homeowner doesn't have to come out every season to pick the weeds out of the scenes of the pavers. You don't have to sweep in any more sand. Once the polymeric sand, hardens, it's, virtually maintenancefree, which is a nice convenient way to reduce your seasonal maintenance of your hardscape in this polymeric sand can be applied to any paver and even flagstone patio walkways, any type of hardscape that you have. It can be applied to even if you have just regular sand in the joints. Now they can be power washed out, and we can apply this polymeric sand down and it's, basically one at once and done prop service that we provide. So once this is set again, this all this whitish powder will sweep off. And then we wet it down and 24 hours. It takes two to harden the polymeric sand. But after that it's, virtually maintenance free, again, nating any weeds, any ant from burrowing under there really a great new product that is available through crystal for landscaping. And if you need more information on that, or any other landscaping project, you can call to 15.

So I didn't mean to spend 500 bucks buying koi fish tanks, bring it to you with a little bit of pond action, how's everybody doing. I hope you're doing well and today's video I'm gonna give you my top five reasons why everybody should own some sort of a pond this by the way is how I walk out of my house there's, where my daughter sits and reads harry potter. I come around here. I plot my tail down, right there or right there. And I sit, and I enjoy the pond. You hear that believe it or not I'm, not actually loud all the time. So in today's video, quick back story, when I was a kid, I was never allowed to set up a garden pond at my dad's old houses in findlay ohio. So in today's video I'm gonna give you a bunch of tips. And I hope you youngsters can use these tips and help convince your parents to let you have even some sort of a small garden. And as my great friend, mr. greg woodstock and the man responsible for this wonderful pond, our friends at aquascape behind me said, well, everyone needs a garden pond. They just don't know it yet. Now look, I know what you're saying like a dustin that's cool, you got a pond, it's, sweet, whatever, but you don't need to get this fancy. Okay back in the day before kids afford a youtube channel. I construct it in one day, an aboveground garden pond that totally got my fix for quite a long time. In fact, they actually set up a second one. I've also seen people do simple stuff like my man, lucas brett's using nothing, but a rubbermaid tub. So don't get intimidated do whatever fits what you got going on in your life at this time and y'all are gonna want to click links around here and make sure you do check out, lucas brett says, aboveground rubbermaid, heated all year, round pools where he grows jungle val and breeds rainbows in so clicking links around here and check those out lake club. Man, wow. Oh dude. I've never seen my clubs. Look like that. Wow, I joke around about how I want to have val in my coffin when I died is straight up man, like if I'm going the afterlife that tall it's kiddie, just like me like I want some of it. And with all that said, here are my top 5 reasons everybody should own some sort of an outdoor garden time. One of the five reason everybody should own some sort of a garden pond it's outside. And you can do easy. Water changes. Look every single. One of us has gotten a stink eye from our significant other when we're lugging a bucket through the room, what are you doing that bucket with the garden pond? Water changes are easy. You grab your hose. You grab your deke lure. You turn the hose on. You add the declaw into the pond you fill it up. Oh, did I mention you have the always sexy in there for us. Mother nature. Periodically dropping rain down in the pond. Yeah, natural water changes unless you live in california. My number for what reason everybody should own a garden palm. We talked about this in a small tank, siri, look with the garden pond, even produced a rubbermaid tub. You've simply got more room for error. We talked about in the small tank series. You got a five gallon, technical, five gallon tank, it's way, harder to maintain than a twenty or thirty gallon tank. Even if you're using a rubbermaid tub, you've simply got more gallons to work with larger ponds. 300 400 gallons. You've got more room for error. You've got more room for more fish. You've got more room to keep more plants, which leads me to my number three reason everybody should own a guard. And now for number three reason, everybody should own some sort of an outdoor garden pond. This is for all you fish tank people. This is something that it's not easy to replicate in an inhome aquarium, but it's simple to do in an outdoor pond. And that is the aerial advantage unlike in our in home aquariums in an outdoor garden pond, tub, whatever you want to use outside, you have something called the aerial advantage. And you have two things, you have unlimited vertical space, and you have unlimited amounts of natural sunlight. So in an aquarium, we obviously have to artificially supplement all the light going on into our aquarium. So walk down in here into the basement. Okay, plants grow exponentially faster. When they're able to grow up and about of the water. This tank right here. My old, 220 actually has a krenim. The tanz that grows up out of the top. You can see it's done growing there. We have to supplement the light down here with a light bulb like this. As you can see here plants growing above the water line, exponentially grow faster, because they have more natural sunlight, and they can absorb more nitrates from the water column, because they can grow up out of the water with readily available, co2 and sunlight, unlike in our aquarium. Because we can't go out the tops in our aquariums. What does this mean? This means higher fish. Low reason number two, everybody should own some sort of an outdoor pond table, whatever the ridiculous amount of plant species available. Look, I know a little something about aquarium plants when it comes to marginals and plants that grow from the water up out of the water it's, a completely different ballgame. Some of these plants get huge some of these plants flower. And a lot of these plants can survive, the winter if you're buying native species to your area. I don't think I could name half of the plants in my garden. Pod I'll buy a bunch of stuff. And then randomly I'll be greeted with some sort of sweet flower that I didn't know it was coming one year. I planted a bunch of spider lilies. I had no idea why they called him spider lilies until all of a sudden I got this ridiculous, white flower straight up in my face for multiple days. It was awesome and every now. And then you roll across a plant that you absolutely fall in love with. This is my red stem tali. I had one of my plant suppliers in florida, just send me a mixed bag of a bunch of stuff. They thought was cool. This plant came in and out of nowhere grew taller than me. I have brought this plant with me the past two years in a row to the aquatic experience, because it simply gets taller than me. Each winter, I bring it into the greenhouse because it's my baby and this year, I split it into three different plants. And I planted them throughout the pond. You never know what you're gonna get with pond plants, it's, a whole new experience, totally a good reason to get yourself some sort of an outdoor garden pond. Excuse me, miss me today with my favorite planning, the redstone powder, I'm holding. And my number one reason everybody shown some sort of a garden pond is this. Everything is better when you're outside look I'm standing here. I got some vitamin d hitting my vitamin d deficient self. If I make a mess out here, it's, no, big deal, grab the hose spray it off. You don't have to worry about your wife complaining about you spilling water all over the floor. You just come out here. You make a mess, you're, white feet. Before you go in the house and you're done do me a favor folks hit the like button. Subscribe button share, but whatever button you feel like pushing and tell me why you love your outdoor pond, or what your plans are for some sort of an.

We're gonna be fine tree plant out of flower power plants me, greetings. My name is bujji mars. And I welcome you to my rossum kitchen today, I'm going to show you how to grow broccoli sprouts. You can use the same method for alfalfa sprouts. You can buy the seeds for sprouting at any natural food store start with a clean mason jar ball jar, some type of canning jar and they're gonna add about three tablespoons of seeds to your jar. One of the amazing things about sprouts is they increase in yield every day. So one pound of sprouts can give you about 16 gallons of food that is an amazing way to feed people. Once you have your seeds in the jar. You want you to cover them with water. You can use spring water and use cool water, because you don't want to kill the enzymes in the sprouts. So just let them sit for overnight in a cool. Dark place, you're also going to want to get yourself as sprouting lid, this one's plastic. And you can see that there's also some with stainless steel. The choice is yours. So after your sprouts have been soaking, you want to pour the water off. I love to give water back to my plants or to my garden. So I'm just gonna pour this water off after they've been soaking. And then after you've done that, you want to put your jar at about a 45 degree angle, it's important that oxygen can still get in. You don't want to store the jars just on their side, because then they'll stay wet and get moldy that's, not a good idea. So leave them on the angle. And then every day you're going to want to give them another watering and just put your loving intentions and thoughts in there and do it at a 45 degree angle after maybe eight days, 10 days, you are going to have a jar full of sprouts that are ready to eat almost. But then it could also be nice to get rid of some of the little brownish halls there. And one way of doing that is just by giving them a rinse. You can rinse them in a salad spinner. You can rinse them in a colander if there's still a few seed hulls in there, that's fine, no problem. And then when your sprouts are ready, you can add them to sandwiches use them as salad, put them on top of casseroles they're best raw and anytime you sprout something not only does it increase in yield, but the vitamin c compound, vitamin e, protein all increase. And we also know that broccoli sprouts are being investigated for their wonderful compound. They also are high in enzymes. They reduce inflammation. So you've got a gem right here in broccoli sprouts. Thanks for joining me. Bridgitte mars in the rossum kitchen. We're gonna be 5 3 plant. Ah, the flower power plants meat plant. We burned all.

A wet sponge is really important in soldering after you've been leaving your soldering iron sitting in its stand for a period of time,, the iron tends to form oxides on its surface that will interfere with the heating process of transferring heat from the iron to the work piece. And you can see that the tip doesn't, look as shiny as it did right before soldering,. And the reason is that oxide is forming. So what we need to do is remove that solder by wiping it on a sponge,, a wet sponge. And by doing that,, we remove that oxide layer and expose fresh, unoxidized, metal, and that'll be much more effective at transferring heat to the work piece. This is a brand new sponge,. So it's been compressed and it's a little bit thinner than it will be after we wet. It place it a bowl of water, or under a faucet,, the sponge expands. And now it's a bit thicker than it was. And we don't really want it saturated like this;, it's, kind of,. I guess, too swampy,. If you will, we want to get it a little bit dry,. So we give it a ring,, but not too dry,, just enough to leave a little bit of moisture when you squeeze it, just like that,, that's perfect, just below that in our soldering iron stand. Now we can use this to clean the tip.

Hi this is lee newton with lyndale plant services today, we're going to talk about how to trim up kalanchoe ii, or you may have heard a pronounced kalanchoe either way we'll we'll just go with that pronunciation. This is the plant that you can find in so many places, especially in the wintertime because it's a cool season bloomer. You can find these cheap for like ten bucks, even at home depot. Now, this one as you can see it's kind of waning it's losing some of its oomph. This one is even further along it's like let it go dry. And let the flowers go the key to getting it to come back and flower again for you is to start cutting away some of this old growth and letting it dry down that's. The key to is you let it dry down, put it in a cooler spot. Maybe you've got a window that you can put it next to at night, and that helps initiate another set of buds. So I'm just going to cut all this back cut off the big leaves that don't look, right because it's already starting to put out new tiny, little foliage don't be afraid to cut this helps the plant do what it needs to do. So you just continue to cut until you get down to where you see the newer foliage coming out. This is one. I did it looked identical to this one. It was from the same batch. I did this ten days ago and it's already starting to initiate the bloom. So now is another time I can take cut back some more these bigger leaves that no longer look appropriate, appropriate cut these back. And now that I've got some bloom showing I'm also going to give this a light. Fertilizer just use my miracle grow or whatever namebrand. I have, I buy sale items. So it doesn't have to be namebrand. And then put this in light, give it the fertilizer and you're going to have a whole new bloom again on your kalanchoe or kalanchoe ii that you may have gotten for 10 so enjoy your plants don't. Consider this a total loss, trim it back encourage it to rebloom. They can go for years if you let them again, this is lea. Teen belle lindale plant service. Thanks for stopping in.

In this video I'll cover how to mix and pour your own concrete for your own countertop. This is a real concrete job for a real customer. This is not a filmed for youtube production. If you want something that watches like a tv, show you're watching the wrong video feel free to pause and read the script as I tried to keep this video moving along that said, hopefully you can pick up a tip or two all right. We built this form in the last video we're, gonna start this video by wiping it out. I use a little bit of acetone on a rag and then we're gonna wipe it down with some paste wax some guys use different stuff, castor oil, baby oil. I prefer paste wax. The form is really really clean. You can set up your vibrators check out that video. If you haven't seen that one, I prefer palm sanders mounted on a piece of plywood. I plug them all into a power strip. And that way throughout the pour I can just click on the power strip. And it activates all of my sanders. Now, remember you want to pulse these on and off if it's what you're using throughout the pour, you don't want them to run continuously. What will happen is it will settle the aggregate out of the concrete mix to the face of the form all right finishing tools. I have three go to trowels the first being a margin trowel, which is very very handy for detail work. I prefer a fiberglass or a resin float and a finishing trowel with a square back. And I typically round the edges slightly on my grinder. Okay, obviously we're going to need a screed and a hand. Temper is also a nice addition as far as mixing goes there's, no real right or wrong way, you'll need to decide what best works for you based upon the amount of time that you'll have the amount of help that you'll have and your budget how much concrete do. I need figuring out the volume length times width times height, / 1728, there's, 1728 cubic inches in a cubic foot. And cubic feet contained is typically printed on a concrete bag. Just remember you can bring an opened bag back, but you don't want to stop the pour to go get more material. A very important thing to remember when pouring concrete on a warm day is cool everything down. This is hot right now. Our water temperature is going to be really hot hosing out in the sun. So what we're gonna do is we're gonna spray everything down and let it cool. Another thing that we're gonna do is for our fiberglass we're gonna pre soaked it. So that it doesn't absorb any extra water always combine and mix dry ingredients. First, this aids in dispersion and is going to give you a much more consistent result. Never combined add mixes in concentrated form as they could have a chemical reaction, it's best to always dilute them into water, concrete contains line, which can cause your skin to really dry out and crack it's a good idea to always wear a pair of gloves. This is a mix design have had really good luck with and everything listed here is commonly available at your local big box store. Now there are specialized mixes available through companies. But the aim of this is to keep it cheap, easy and diy fiber match can be a great additive if it's available to you. I highly recommend using it. There are a lot of concrete add mixtures available, also, although definitely not necessary. There are three that even somebody inexperienced in concrete could benefit from a shrink reducer, a plasticizer and a water reducer. If you are interested in these research them, they are also commonly available at the local bigbox store or through many other online, retailers ebay. And of course, amazon as noted earlier we're going to use an offtheshelf sack rate, 5000 mix we're gonna supplement in some raw portland, cement as well as some add mixtures and fiber mesh to really bring up our end yield strength. Well, let's begin we'll start by weighing out 5 pounds of dry powder. A bathroom scale works good for this. This is where you want to combine your two dry ingredients and let the mix okay. Now we've let our two dry mixes mix together without any water. Now, we're gonna add our first bath water, it's very important to remember when finetuning your mix consistency to always add water in small increments as you can always add additional, but you can never take it back out. You know, my first batch is missing I'm gonna go ahead and get my second batch of portland, cement and cad mix is ready. This allows for the mixer to run the entire time and I'm never left without concrete consistency should resemble a thick oatmeal something that you could form into a ball. You don't want your aggregate sinking to the form face. You don't want soup remember all water that's added to the mix has to come back through the top. It cannot permeate through the forms. I sporadically and randomly place my concrete throughout the entire pour that way I never end up with two pieces with a slight color variation that are completely mismatched, five gallon buckets full of concrete can get very heavy. I recommend using three yelling buckets. If you can find them take special note of that concrete's consistency, you can see it's, pretty stiff it's, not dripping out of my hands. It's, not runny. It stays in the shape that you form it into. I always like to begin by focusing on the detail work such as sink drain and faucet knockouts that way as the concrete begins to fill the forms. And I lose sight of those details. I know that they've already been handled by special attention to detail I'm talking about packing the concrete tightly around any special contours, making sure there's, no voids and any reinforcements that might need to be placed. This is the point in the day where my camera memory had filled up. And I was concentrating so hard on the poor that I didn't notice in time, but as you can see the outer sink mold is installed in the remesh is inside of the forms. Unfortunately, it was not caught on film. Take the time in between batches to really vibrate this concrete, whether you do with a hammer or a palm sander or whatever it's, very important to consolidate that concrete in that form work out all the air pockets and make sure that it is tightly packed. This is also a very good time to start doing work around the faucet knockouts and the edges of the sink with that margin trowel, really paying attention to the details. These form braces are kind of an obstacle that you can slide that margin travel underneath now I'm gonna rot off this sink form and I'm gonna push all my extra material towards the center and really force it in around that drain, knock out and make sure that there's, no voids or imperfections. This is an area that requires special attention, three gallon bucket for the wind. This drain knock out is an area that requires special attention because drains fit in through the top. And then they have a gasket on the bottom side and that's your watertight seal, therefore, the mating surface for that gasket needs to be perfect, or you need to be a whiz with plumber's putty all right we're coming down the homestretch here on a sink area doing the final screen here, applause and done quick tip here. You can see with this margin trial, I'm scraping the edges of the melamine that's, always rich cream. There's never much aggregate in it, because it gets squashed between the rod board and the form. So if you have small air pockets or small divots, where you leave just cream, that's, a good place to pull it from applause, applause and don't be afraid to do work with that margin trial, paying attention to the details like this can make a job that was okay. Be a job. That's, wow, that's, really, good it's, paying attention to the details that will get you that next wordofmouth customer. If you feel like it's, not quite right or you're, not 100% happy with it. Take the couple extra minutes and do it until you're happy with it margit travel again, super handy. Now that we're nearing the point of putting a throttle on top of this, you will want to tamp it one more time and force the aggregate down, which is going to make a world of difference in our final product, give all these edges, one more click tap with the hammer again, the vibrator should be running on and off throughout this entire process. This is important in preventing bug holes. The bug holes are small voids that occur on the edges of the forms from entrapped air, they're, not 100% avoidable. But you can alleviate the problem to a great degree with that extra vibrating. Now if you're a concrete person, there might be a few different travelers that you would choose to put on here. First, my first choice is a fiberglass trowel, really like it. And it does a good job now learning to read concrete and knowing when it needs what comes with experience, but typically it's pretty hard for a beginner to over trowel concrete, but it's definitely possible to under travel it. Now, once the fiberglass quote has done its job it's time to move on to the finishing trowel. This is what puts that ultra smooth finish on the concrete. Now it should be noted that these are the bottoms of the countertops, but it still doesn't hurt to pay attention to the details it's good to take pride in your work. Not to mention the bottom side of a precast counter. Top is a great place to practice your finishing skills for when you want to do that porn place counter top. You can see here I keep using the edge of the forum as a grade reference, don't lose yourself out in the middle of the forum and create a birdbath if you need to keep using that forum edge as a great reference again back to this drain. This is an area that does require special attention, keep that in mind and keep working on it applause. Now I can refer back to my notes again. This is an openedge right here. So that means you'll be able to walk up to the counter and feel the bottom of it. So I want this first inch and a half or so to be really nice. Now, I've got here a water bottle with a very small pinhole in the lid, just to kind of help bring back some of that moisture. This is a technique that should definitely be used in moderation. It is possible to overwater it. Now here we are midway looking pretty good, but definitely still needs a lot of work, especially this area around the faucets edges of the same. Now people very commonly store stuff underneath their sinks. And what I try to do is just cut a slight bevel on these edges, they're, nothing, super drastic and I'll, definitely finish it out with the wet polisher. Now I just want to say as we near the end of this video that this hasn't been a made for youtube production. This is me filming myself doing what I do for work and trying to edit it into a video for somebody who might be wanting to tackle some concrete countertops. I hope you were able to glean some information, maybe a tip or two. And I hope you tune back as the series continues. Oh yeah, always cover. Those tops cover them at least overnight. I typically cover I'm one to three days. Thanks for watching. Hopefully there was something useful for you, oh and definitely clean your tools.

Hi,, Im matt from espares in this video,, Im going to show you how a washing machine works. Now, this is a typical front loader machine made by bosch, and Im going to remove the whole of the front, including the door,, the top and the back panel, so that I can show you whats going on inside. So the machine works by agitating your clothes in warm,, soapy water., lets from the flow of water as it comes through. from the back. WeVe got a hot water and a cold water inlet. You may just be using the cold water and not the hot,. And these solenoid valves open to let the water flow through into our detergent drawer. The detergent is washed down through this pipe and into the drum,. Now, the drum itself is really two drums:. ThereS this outer plastic water tight tub and inner metal drum with the holes in it that the water can flow through. as the water sits in the bottom of the drum,, its heated up by this element, looks very much like a kettle element. And as the water fills up,, this pressure chamber here fills and squeezes air up to our water level, regulator which,. When theres enough water in the drum, tells the solenoid valves to switch off and stop the water flow now,, you can also see that we have this very large weight,. This counter balance weight from the front of the drum. And theres another one here on the top. TheyRe just to give the whole thing, a bit of stability and to stop the machine, wondering off out the door when its on its fastest, spin cycle. now, whats actually causing it to spin?, lets have a look at the back of the machine. And here we have our motor,, which is bolted to the bottom of the tub. And that acts as another counter weight. ThatS turning our belt and pulley, which is attached to the drum through the water tight seal and a set of bearings when its time for the machine to empty, out drain pump here, that just pumps away our waste water up through our waste pipe. And you can see on the front of the pump housing here,. We just have a little fluff filter, that catches any debris, stops going through the pump. And so finally,, we have the brains of the operation,, which is the control module here. Now that makes all the important decisions about when to let the water in, when to drain the water out,, what temperature to heat the water to and how fast to spin the drum at the end of the cycle. ItS also connected to the door interlock,. And that just makes sure that the door stays firmly locked whilst the machines in operation. So Im sure youll agree, washing machines, not as complicated as you first might think and the parts inside can all be very easily replaced., spare parts for all makes and models of appliance are available on the espares website. Thanks for watching.

Hi everyone and welcome back to the botanic garden club, I'm pam and I'm elka. And today we have a really interesting and quite exciting rather episode for you to watch and it's all about forcing flower bulbs exactly and a lot of people call us. And they say, what is this whole forcing thing all about? And how would I do that? I would like to learn about that? Yeah, we do. We get a lot of emails. A lot of phone calls people very much interested in forcing and really forcing is is what you're trying to do is you're trying to recreate spring inside so you're going to put your flower bulbs in soil, or in water and you're going to mimic the seasons so that they will be blooming in spring in january or february inside as opposed to outside and it's really fun to do. And you can be successful at it. If you follow some really simple basic rules. Now some bulbs are better than other bulbs for forcing, and which ones would those be. I would definitely choose the early blooming stuff it's, the easiest stuff to grow there's to every every science is something that is maybe possible, but it's a little bit more difficult. But I would recommend it when you start out with forcing go for the easy stuff. And I would use early flowering tulips, right? Hyacinths, crocuses. The little tiny, I was the iris reticulata, sorry, book. Well, miscarry anything that's marked is early in our fall catalog or on our website is early spring blooming. Those are the really the best ones to try, and you can try all of them and it's really actually a lot of fun. And as I just touched on earlier, there are two methods to forcing you can do it either above water, or you can do it in soil. But the most important thing that you need to know if you want to force flower bulbs inside is you have to be able to provide the temperatures that they require the cooler temperatures that they require that are mimicking fall and winter. So those range anywhere between seven degrees celsius and zero degrees celsius. So somewhere in your house out in your garage, potting shed somewhere you're going to be after to be able to provide those flower bulbs for about four to eight weeks, those temperatures. Now, if you can do that you're good to go now, let's try doing our planting on water level, forcing exactly okay. So a very good idea is that when you put I'll have books in water, the important part is that the bulb itself, doesn't really sit in the water that would give, you know if they will just wash begin to rock so that's, why you use either gravel or some beautiful rocks because they look nicer, and you just put the bulbs right on top so let's just put in. And you pretty much just put only a little bit water in so it just it just, yeah, there we go pretty philosophy. So what it means like they you see them, probably half of the rocks are covered. The rest is still clutter is still dry. So you just put them right on top of it I'm using highest since there, and you just put them right on it. And eventually with with the the temperature and it's, not making roots with it, they kind of crawl into these waters and grab on and stability that right at them. And and what you touched on right, there is really important that first step in forcing is the root growth. And if you think about it, what you're trying to do right now is you're trying to mimic the autumn, the fall so you're outside you're, planting your bulbs, there's about four or five weeks of cooler temperatures, where they're making roots then it's gonna head into winter. So once you place them on your water, you want to put them in a dark place, right? And it has to be somewhere between seven to nine degrees celsius for approximately four to five weeks and you'll know that they're ready to go when those stones. Yeah, you see what's growing are full of roots exactly. So that is your autumn period. Then once you've gone through your autumn period, you have to go through a winter period as well, which is an additional four weeks or five, you know, you see it at the plan. I mean, let me say four to five weeks in the wooden routing period, well, if it still needs more roots than it's, maybe six weeks, it might be final fit. It all is about the temperature at this time that and how how fast the bulb starts growing right. So that winter period is now zero to two degrees celsius. So anywhere in a in a garage in a potting shed, some were you, not, you know, it's not going to go below freezing, but it definitely has to be that nice and cool like winter. Excitements, just remember, it's the season and it's that's. Why it's dark, usually they will be outside underground and it's dark there. So they concentrate on making roots and it's getting cold so that's exactly what we're doing inside right. So now we're about eight or nine weeks into our forcing period. And now what you want to do is to mimic spring, well, spring, doesn't, just come on with the 17 degrees celsius, temperature, right off the bat. We always have a gradual build into our spring and that's. What you want to mimic with these as well and that's a very important part is because if you take these pots from the cold period and say, I can't wait anymore and you see they start growing a little bit. You see little green tips on top. If you say, oh, it's, going let's, put it in the living room, 20 degrees, maybe maybe even 19, it's, too hot. What happens is the the flower starts growing too fast. And in you either get a lot of leafs and no flower or you get that flower pushed out, and you have like a nice little just adjusted blooms, right on top of the most my anything. So you need to give it time to grow out of it quick, very gradual. And the very best conditions that you can give it indoors. Then is not too hot, don't place them next to a heater or a radiator. If you can put them in a cooler room, that's, the best think about it in the spring, our spring, blooming flowers last longer when we have a cool spring, as opposed to a hot spring, if it's really really warm that all those beautiful blooms that come up, but they don't last very long. So if you want to get a lot of bloom for your buck out of your forest bulbs, make sure you keep them cool as well, not too hot, not too and gel look beautiful. I usually use a like a guest room that has the light and it's warmer than in the garage, obviously, but it's still cooler and it'll. You know, you can now introduce it to the light, and it come can start growing very slow. And then you can watch it because now, as soon as you see, nice buds, and it has a little bit of a stem, then it's ready to move it into the next next room would actually forth. So this was an easy method on water as we call it force on water. But you can also actually force them in soil. And we've already filled up a few containers here again, good drainage is the key as we always say with bulbs, make sure that your pots have nice drainage holes in the bottom, regular potting soil. And then you can plant up pretty much anything. Now we talked about this before I want those muscari. Okay, it's my muscari I'm, gonna I'm gonna try some in this container. And all you do is you just fill a container with regular potting soil as we said, and then thank you that's. I'm just gonna put those there and you're just going to push them into your soil, just like you would outside in the garden with forcing bulbs inside. I like to pack them, pretty close together, too right? See the thing is, you can make a mixed container. But I personally like to make every container one variety, because because they will bloom in different times. And I rather when they already take these pots, and then put them together. S, they already right and make the container afterwards plan making it nice planter with my forcing pots. But if you already mix them, they might not look pretty together, you know, because they, but they grow in a different height exactly now with the with the ones that you grow in soil, you can cover the soil them completely with soil, or you can leave them like this. If you want to to eu, you actually can leave the bulb slightly exposed. I've seen them grown like that as well. But again, you're gonna do the same steps as you did with the water now that you've planted them. You give them a little bit of water and you're going to give them your fall period, which is four to five weeks at seven to nine degrees celsius. Then your winter period, which is zero to two degrees. This is when they're gonna go dormant for another four weeks again, all the time, keeping them nice and dark. And then after that, eight to nine week period of cooling you're going to slowly introduce them into some warmer temperatures. And you will be amazed at the results because they really look really cool. And if you are starved for spring, yes, wow. At that time, oh my gosh, are we it's dark outside the sun's going down early? We just want to have that beautiful color and fragrance indoors. And you can do that by forcing bulbs as we've shown you today. Yeah, you know, what after christmas, we are so overloaded with decoration and everything and we're ready for spring. But spring is not quite ready for us outside so that's. Why we do that I cannot wait after christmas it's. The first thing I'm thinking about is like I'm, looking at my fourth spot since the almost ready. And you know, start taking them into the warmest place. And you had a really good tip elka. We were talking about it beforehand. She said, you know, if you pot up a bunch of of bulbs to be forced, you don't have to introduce them to the warm all at the same time, you could have eight pots, april containers of different bulbs, and then bring one out. And then you could bring out another one a couple of weeks later or a week later, you could give them to friends. So you have a kind of a staggering of blooms coming forth, because you can hold them dormant for really long if you keep them in that zero to two degrees, yeah, for a longer time. Then they also take longer to start growing just pretend it's winter on the prairies. Have huge power, that's, right? Powerful. You would be mother nature. You can play mother nature with your bulbs. So we hope that we've answered some of your questions and made the mystery of forcing bulbs indoors, a little less mysterious. And if you watch the botanas garden club regularly, as we know, many many people do you know that we love to give things away. And we want to spur you on to perhaps purchasing a few bulbs that you could force indoors and we're going to give away this week. Three, ten dollar gift certificate, that's, right. And the question we're going to ask you is which are the best bulbs to force indoors, early mid or late spring, bloomers, you tell us mmhmm, which one is it send your answer to garden club at botanas, calm and we'll. Look at all the right answers and we'll draw three people. And each one of those lucky gardeners is going to get a botanas, 10 gift certificate, emailed to them forthwith forthwith. So well as well all is well in the bulb world, I see you can bulb, you can enjoy your bulbs outdoors, or you can join them indoors. And you can do that all year round. I think that's pretty awesome. I love it. I do too hmm. Well, we wish you a wonderful week in the garden, enjoy all of your plants and your plantings. And we look forward to seeing you next week in the botanas garden club.

This is a rather interesting wild edible because see it has these curved jagged launch shaped leaves. And if you look very closely, you can see that has a silvery dusting. This is a characteristic. It can be brushed away. And you often see morning to you beading on this very close water to run off easily. If you look down the stem, you can see it's ribbed. Third lesson and there's, slight reddish tint with the leaves doing the stem kayla come on underside. And it has a small silvery white flower. So this is as I said, an edible, it's, virtually all of it is edible, which should be cooked as it contains positive, garlic acid. So this is quite handy little edible to know that do you make sure that you get all the identification points as there are a few common look like that fat in china, podium album limit for watching and a special next up.

Hi guys, welcome back to my channel. I see it idp. My name is brad, and where does out in the greenhouse this afternoon, it's raining outside and not nothing better to do, but to poke around to do a little bit of orchid gardening and see what I can come up with today. So why don't you come along and we'll see what we can find there's lots of stuff in bud and in bloom that, um, you guys might not have seen yet and yeah, see what we can do? Why don't we start with this guy? This is brass or a spider orchid. If you remember a few videos back, I did one on removing in blooms bike from my brass at work it. I also showed one that was I'm just about to bloom. Well, this is it about a week or two later, pulling in bloom, beautiful plant. The smell is just fantastic it's, kind of a citrusy spicy smell. It makes the whole greenhouse smell. And this guy here, these two giant buds. These are from this cataleya plant. This is the first time I got it to bloom. I purchased it last year in bloom. And I just I got it from a friend there and turns out when I went to transplanted after I finished blooming, it had absolutely no reach on it. So it ended up being more of a rescue project than a nice beautiful, healthy cataleya. I plant it in a wooden basket with coarse bark mix. And I put a whole bunch of onair plants in there as well. Their plants seem to like it, they're doing good there's, probably about six different species. This one will be a great big, cataleya flower, hopefully almost as big as my hand. They're buds are enormous. So I'll, probably do a quick video update on that one once it's in bloom, all right out of the tripod and into my hand, I know know another youtuber. She was asking about my band band to sender they're so crisp. Now you can you can't say that I haven't showed you a beautiful plant. I love it flowers three times a year. This is his winter, flowering there's, only five flowers on it. The last time it flower that actually had 11 or 12. It was like a big bouquet of purple flowers. Flowers are like good size, almost the size of, um, you know, the palm of your hand. Anyways, it's quite big. He goes from the roof of the greenhouse all the way down. The roots cut through the other plants down down down down down down down down to the low. The big chair there's. The last the roots. Well, we're up here, I'll swing around this way. This is a collage any beautiful flowers snow white. They smell kind of like honey. This little guy here. These are dendrobium kini, annum flowers. They are beautiful as well, tiny little things. They somehow remind me of aliens. They have a an interesting smell too. When you walk in the greenhouse door, you can definitely smell dendrobium kini annum. I don't know if you can see tucked in here, this is the cooler end down with the massive alias, a whole bunch of plastic tubs back in here. Even this year, I decided to try some carnivorous plant seedlings. So there'd be lots of video updates on my carnivorous plant seedlings. Once they get going and germinating, I have a fridge full of different kind stratifying. And these are ones that don't quite need the stratification like the ones that are in the fridge. So in front of us is one two three, four, five, six different species of son, do order ossa seeds. These were planted a couple weeks ago, sold a couple weeks ago. So far they're just starting to germinate, but the seedlings are so tiny, they wouldn't even show up on camera. If you can see if they're hanging in bags to keep the humidity in and any insects out, there is a bunch of butterworts. I have decided to increase my butter or collection. This year butter words are pings as their column or another carnivorous plant. I went from having zero species to having six species, there's a pot full of pings. This one is going to flower soon maybe went that one is flower in bloom there. I will do a butter wart video. So again, those are carnivorous plant as well. You know, just they will all have. But this one's gonna have a purple flower on it and actually see the little plant beside it is sending up a bloom spike as well. Alright, so that um, basically concludes our tour today. So I hope you enjoyed watching them what's going around in my greenhouse things that are in bud things that are in bloom. My carnivorous plants there behind me. If you did want to see more videos like this, please subscribe to my channel that way we'll catch the updates. When stuff like this is in bloom. And and then stuff starts to grow behind me. Alright, thanks for watching.

Hi I'm laura with redesign. And this is the redesign feature color for july 2016, balanced beige. I have been looking forward to featuring balanced beige for a while we've been profiling, the sherwin williams color the month for several months now. But I've been working on releasing a featured color for each month with some of my favorite pink colors that are also from sean williams balanced beige is definitely one of my top favorite neutral, pink colors of all time. And it looks like the general public of gray's. Since it really is one of the top search colors. I recommend it all the time. The best thing about balanced beige is that it's so versatile, I've seen it go well and warm color schemes. And at the same time, working cooler, color schemes to bring some warmth, bounce beige can also help to coordinate spaces that have cool and warm tones such as a kitchen that has warmer tile floors and a cooler toned backsplash. I first paired balanced beige with virtual taupe for a gorgeous monochromatic scheme. Virtual taupe is a few shades darker than bounce beige on the paint swatch. So these two colors are literally made for each other. I recommend trying balanced beige as your main wall color. And then using virtual taupe as an accent wall or focal point in your space since virtual taupe is more saturated than balanced beige. It really can help to ground a room, which means it can make spaces with higher ceilings feel more cozy quietude is another favorite paint color of mine. So I was really itching to use that wood found space for this scheme. I painted quite two below the chair rail. But it can also be used as an accent wall or really on all the walls in any space. The warmer feel of balanced beige and the cool tones and quiet to complement each other nicely. And I love how they pop against the white trim balanced beige can go with almost any color because it's so adaptable. But I really do love how these two colors look together for the next game. I got creative again and painted 12 inch stripes, alternating between balanced beige and china doll. These neutral stripes are a unique way to do something different without feeling too bold or circuslike. I like the idea of doing the stripes on an entry wall, but the colors are so soft and subtle that they really could be used as an axe and a living room or a bedroom balance page in china doll go. Well together since they are both warmer. Neutrals since china doll is lighter in color than balance page. They are the perfect combo for the stripe detail that I seriously recommend trying this last game with a complimentary color end up being my favorite. I started painting gray matters. And honestly was a little bit skeptical at first once it dried, though and I step back, I immediately took a picture and text it to my husband to let him know how much I loved it. The soft blue, grey color, complements balanced beige perfectly again, because the juxtaposition of the cooler and warm colors put together. You can also think about adding a little bit of a pop of color with artwork pillows or accessories like the magenta flowers that I use for styling this space. As I wrap up, I just keep thinking about how much I love balanced beige. I seriously recommend it, especially if you are having trouble choosing a neutral that is in between a golden beige and a grey grayish grayish.

Thank you to matt I'm, roy back again, well, you probably seen yourself right now. Matt, what am I looking at? Well, what normally goes here is something that I've been meaning into a video on and it's right over here. Alright, so I've been getting a lot of questions from people on youtube about this clock, they've it's been featured and several of my videos. But I've never really talked about it before and has many questions. If I as I've gone about it, I figured it warranted its own special video. So basically what this is is a sky scan atomic clock. Now, for you guys that don't know what an atomic clock is, basically this syncs up to three of the government satellites. One is in greenwich. I think there may be one in colorado and there's others across the world and basically sets itself. So this clock is always set to the correct time. Basically, I believe it does it every 48 hours this particular clock, it. Go ahead. It goes and sends a signal out and it's a satellite signal, and it resyncs to make sure the clock is set properly. Now, as you can see, not only is this an analog or a quartz clock, but it also has a digital clock built in the middle. Now you can have this set to tell you just the time of day. And you can see right there. It says, the time of day this right here, says that we are getting a good signal. This is for showing what time zone we're in. In my case we are in the eastern time zone this. So this even tells you how what moon you have at night. So tonight, I guess we're expecting a half a moon as you can see today is wednesday and that's about it for the front display, I'm going to turn this around. You can see this is in that they believe they call this gunmetal gray, it's, actually, very similar in color to my walls, that's that's, why I kind of decided to paint my room this color, I was kind of trying to match the clock, healeth healeth. Now if you look on top, it shows you how to set the different time zones like we have pacific time zone mountain time, zone, central. And then of course, eastern. So this is basically just made for the united states and canada, basically north america. You wouldn't take this over to europe or any other country, because it wouldn't be able to set it properly. You can see it says for customer enquiries. This is model number two 701, oh, and you guys can pull the video read that if you're interested in ordering one of these. Now I looked online online. This particular model did not get very good reviews, which I'm very surprised as I haven't, hardly had any problems with this at all. Sometimes when I change the battery, I do have to pull it out one time and put it back in, because it doesn't set the exact right time. So, but being over where it is, it probably has a hard time getting the signal once in a while, but other than that, I really don't have any complaints about it down here. You have your daylight savings time. In this case, as I was stating before this is for setting your time zone. So we have eastern central mountain and specific or pacific time. And I got a little tongue tonight there so I'm put it back to eastern now you can tell already since I switched that it's changing over to the different time zones. So this is just gonna go all the way around until it catches the signal again and I'll, reset for the eastern time zone. Another nice feature about this there's two buttons here. This one is to set the actual signal. So if for some reason it's, not setting itself properly, you can push this button, and it will force another time check. However, this button is neat because this is the mode button. If I push this again, it'll actually switch between the time and the date. Now I don't know, what's gonna do it while it's setting, but we can go ahead and give it a try. Yeah, it's, not going to do it when it's setting. But basically what happens is if it's set properly and you push that button. It'll do it'll be it'll show you the digital time for about ten seconds, then it'll switch over and show you the date for another ten seconds and so on and so forth. But what I recommend one of these, definitely, you know, it's, it's, not that I'm lazy that I can't set a clock, but it's, just really nice to know that you have a clock that is always gonna be set to the proper time. Now you can buy more advanced models of this. They have sky scan clocks will also tell you the indoor/outdoor temperature, I'll have barometer a I detect. I've even seen ones that'll tell you the exact humidity to the letter. So you know, it's up to you, which kind you think you're gonna need. But for my needs here, this suits, it just fine. I've actually had this clock for about six years. Now, hope you guys enjoyed this video, please, remember to like and subscribe, and as always have a blessed day, everybody.

Hello, everyone it's a free country from fengshuiandprosper.com fengshuiandprosper. And I just wanted to do this quick video to address some compass reading concerns that I have from my from my readers or my audience. After they finished. My 2015, flying star feng shui webinar that I held a couple of weeks ago. Now, um so I'm just going to go through the general of the main questions that I've received received ever since that webinar. And this is what this video will be going with. So as most of you know, if you want to do function properly, you need a compass. Okay, you can use the compass in your smartphone, but you know, make sure that it's a good one, because sometimes they can give you the wrong reading as well, or you can go to any store armysurplus store, or any stores that let's say, the boy scouts or whatever go to to get their their supplies. They usually would have a compass even a regular store like if you're in north america. If you have walmart, for instance, um, you can go to the hobby or the outdoors aisle for the fishing and camping stuff. They would have the compasses there as well. So on the screen, you're gonna see I have a sample layout here of the first floor of a home. Okay? And this is, um. This is where the front door is. Okay, if you guys see my mouse here, obviously, this is the front door here. And then, so this is the uh, the sorry, the front door, the hallway bedroom kitchen living room and the dining room. So now as you can see, um, what I mentioned in my webinar before is the facing of the home is determined and usually determined. I should say a 90 percent of the time is determined by the what is the main most yang side of the house, right? You know, in chinese metaphysics there's, the yin and the yang. And the yang usually means the more active side of the house. So there is also a concern about getting the facing of the building wrong, which if you get the facing wrong, then based on classical feng shui, then you're going to get the rest of the functionary placements wrong inside the house as well. So, for instance, if I've made up a name here 1 2, 3 apple street, okay, let's say, if this is the house and the street and this house, the address is 1 2, 3 apple street. And this is where apple street is on this side of the house. If that is the case I'm going to move them house a little bit further off here. So let's say, if the if the street that the house is named after is on this side of the house, then the facing of the building is actually here it's on this wall, ok, or you can even take the compass reading on this wall. But this wall would be more accurate. Ok, this is the facing of the building what if and there's always a possibility of this. What if the street is here right? And that changes the facing of the building. Now, if you want to take a compass reading and figure out what the the first compass reading needs to be at the facing of your home or your building? Ok, so even if this is the cott econo, the same rule applies figure out what is the address that the condo is is based on right, sorry, which which street it is named after. And that is like, I said, 90% of the time is the facing of the building. I have seen instances where the facing is actually at the back or at the side due to other more advanced function qualifications. But for 90% of you guys out there, this would be a pretty good guideline to live by. So if the if apple street where the houses address is based on if it's on this side, then you actually take a compass reading here, okay, or you can stand at the door looking out to apple street, that's, fine, too. So as you can see this door is facing this side, but it doesn't necessarily mean that this is the facing of the building right. The door could be facing out here. But if the street is like, I had it before if the door is facing here, but the street is here. And the facing of the building is actually here right. So when you determine the facing of your house, you cannot go by the main entrance, most of the time you can. But I chose this layout for this purpose to tell you that there are many nuances in feng shui. So a lot, which is why a lot of them have information out there in books and online, unfortunately, is not supportive of you because it can give you the wrong information and that's. What I'm here for to break down a lot of myths and a lot of bad information out there. So now that you know the facing of your building so let's, say, um, I'm going to shrink this a little bit action. I can take this away. So whatever the facing of the building you note that down and remember, the 24 mountains that I mentioned to you before I'm going to see if I have it on my computer here, if you haven't seen my webinar, but that my 2015 flight start function, webinar, um, click on I'll, have the link to that webinar somewhere here, it's just a quick registration form. And then you'll get the replay because you've missed the the live one that I held a couple of weeks ago. But let me see if I can share with you the 24 mountains. So once you have the compass reading note down the actual degree of the compass, so it could be 80 degrees or 103 degrees, whatever it is note. It down on a piece of paper or anything like that. Okay? And then the next thing that you do is to figure out so let's see if it's 103 degrees. So this is the the 24 mountains that I've also included on my webinar. I have a handout, which has all this information as well. So let's say, 103 degrees, you need to figure out which 24 mountain. It falls under so the hundred and three actually is east three. Do you see that here? Okay, east three is ninety seven point, five degrees. So 112 point, five degrees. So your home, if the compass is telling you that you're facing of the house, if it's telling you 103 degrees, then your home or your condo building is facing east three. What do you do with this information information? Um, again, go back to the 2015 webinar that I held just to go through the information again, refresh your memory, or you have if you have not seen it then feel free to register so that I can send you out the replay, and you can have a better idea of what I'm talking about. Okay, because this video is really done for people who have seen the webinar, and they have additional questions. So I'm gonna take this down, and I will go back to my drawing here. So the next question that I seem to get a lot is, how do I figure out what rules fall in which direction? Because people are confused about taking the compass reading at the door, and then checking the compass reading in the middle you actually do both. So the compass readings are not at the door, the compass reading at the facing determines the energy in here in the house right? So you stand out here. So if this is the if the street is here, you stand around here, this side of the house, you look out to the street. You take the compass reading okay, stand as square as possible to the wall, or if the street is here, then you stand here, look out the street again, stand as square as possible to the house, even have your back to the wall. If you can just to make sure that your compass reading is right, um, and then and then look at what direction you're facing right and then go back to the 24 mountains and figure out which of the 24 mountains, your home or your building falls under next. You actually stand in the you actually, let me put a start here. Next thing is you stand in the middle of your layout. Okay, figure out what is the middle of that your layout usually it's the hallway, a lot of the layouts that have some scene, usually it's the hallway sometimes it's a different room. Okay, again with the compass in your hand. In this case, actually it doesn't matter which direction you're facing at this point. You could be facing here, um, you know, you could be facing here. You can be facing here or facing here. The compass is still going to tell you the same thing thing because north it doesn't matter let's say, if let's say, if north is here, right, let's, say, when you're standing here, the compass points this as the north this direction, if the compass. So if you're standing here and you're looking this way in the compass pointing you north, then even if you're looking at a different direction, the compass system is still going to tell you that this direction is the north right? It really doesn't matter when you're inside it doesn't matter where you're facing when you're outside to determine the facing of the building that you need to make sure you're facing the right way because otherwise your compass is going to tell you the wrong facing degree right? And once you have that I'm going to superimpose this here. So some of you who have followed from tree for a while you are familiar with a nine grid. And I get this question to do. I use the nine grid of the pi grid it's, the nine grid that I use so it's, a 3x3, and I've roughly, um drawn it out here. So so this would be the north. This would be north west. This would be north east. And this one here is east southeast south as you can see, this house is missing southwest. And here it's the west. Okay, this is let me fix this a little bit. So you guys are okay. And obviously this is the center. So in this case, this is why there's two different kinds of compass reading that is needed one for the outside to determine the facing and one for the inside at the center of the house for you to determine which room falls where so the northwest is the bedroom bedroom. The north is looks like this is the bathroom and the staircase going up stairs. The northeast. Well, if you go like this, okay, so the northeast is the kitchen. Um, the east is kind of part of the kitchen. And part of the living room southeast is the living room and then cells it's, not quite missing it's it's. There, well, there's the dining room that could be the south. Obviously, the center is the hallway, um and another bathroom that's in the west. So this is pretty much a general guideline on one how to determine the facing of your house and then to how to determine the direction that each of these room take up in your layout. So hopefully this video clears up more, um, some of the confusion with regards to taking the compass reading again, compass reading is the first and foremost, most important key when it comes to doing feng shui. If you are are in books or information on feng shui that do not tell you to take compass readings. You need to check that book out because that is not how it was done, classically hundreds and thousands of years in china. So, um, if you haven't subscribed to my video, I would love to have you follow me on youtube subscribe to my channel. I should say and feel free to join me as well on function. Prosper, calm learn a little bit about me and a little bit more about what I do and a little bit more about the real way of doing feng shui. And I'd love to have you join me in my facebook group, or even my google pages and hope to be able to share with you guys a little bit more information in the future. In the meantime, you guys have a great day. Take care.

Do the nature of my position. I normally do all the talking in these videos. But this time I'm gonna kind of let the plants do something they're talking that way you can get an idea of what we actually are doing here, it's your grill. And you know understand that this media isn't about the hype it's actually about to grow so I'm going to take about another 40 seconds to show you what's going on just a sidebar that's, a 55gallon drum in the corner for scale. So for those of you are having a hard time, discerning, how large these tomato plants are that's the ceiling. So like I said, this isn't about me talking this is about the plants and the performance of sure to grow you want to grow like this get some stg products, put them in your system and get to grow in the grass is always greener in my place have a great day.

Trial pad shell, asphalt patch will repair wide cracks and shallow depressions up to an inch. And if you have depression, that's deeper than a half an inch, you'd want to apply this in two layers, put your first layer down up to a half an inch allow this to dry overnight. And then put your second layer down. Nice about this is you don't have to tamp it in place? You want to mix it thoroughly and stir it up from the bottom till it's a smooth consistency. And this is going to go on brown, but it's going to dry black. You can pull this to a feather edge and this dries from the top down. So you want to make sure you don't go over. Did you feel the depression? You can dip your trowel in water, let the excess drip off. And then you can start feathering and smoothing it allow this to cure for 24 hours. And then see if there's any little areas we need to feather and I'm also going to use this on the cracks once it's fully.

Hi this is yolanda vanveen. And in this segment we're going to talk about how to make a deep freeze root cellar in the olden days, everybody grew their own food. And so they would collect their apples and their vegetables and their fruits, and they would put them in a root cellar for the winter so that they didn't freeze, and they could keep all of the food all winter long and eat out of it. And as we all know, we're, all enjoying a lot of the old customs are coming back. And so it's, very easy to recreate a traditional root cellar. And basically, all you have to do is either dig out a hole into the side of a mountain or actually dig out a hole into the ground. And as long as you put cement or blocks all the way around it and some wood to stop the moisture from actually I'm filling in too much, and you can go into it, then you can create your own root cellar, and it can be very complicated, and you can have a big room, or you could have just a very small cubby where you can crawl into, and you can save all of your flower bulbs, and you can save all of your vegetables and your apples. And that way nothing freezes under the ground really hard. So it's cold enough for all of your bulbs, and your fruits and vegetables, stay fresh and not freeze at the same time. And that is the best way that you can store them the best way possible in the world and it's, very easy to recreate a deep root cellar in your.

Well, guys welcome back to another video right? So today, what we've got is a legend london, clothing haul as you know, I really like this brand like the jeans. I throw my favorite jeans that I've ever tried on I ever had. So they've brought out loads of different items. They've now got denim jackets truck, sue's tshirts and hoodies reached out to me via instagram. Dm, we want to send you 400 pounds of the store. So hannah look on the website chose my favorite things. We've got to track suits, denim jacket, two pairs of jeans, a tshirt and a hoodie gonna try it on see what a face like see if the other product compared with how the jeans are exceeded actually live up to how good the jeans are. And yet guys I'll link, everything in the description, if you do like, I need his stuff and he doing a pinky, oh yeah, don't forget to drop this video, a line if you do enjoy it and helps me out. I start trying stuff on. Alright, guys. So stop did that in jacket. I always start off in a jacket in my videos. Don't have so it's pretty best to do that right? It is a size extra large. So hopefully should fit because I've been having a bit of problem ordering large it's been too small. So let's see how it fits all right. So it's got a sheep wool inside layering it. I don't know, I don't think you're supposed to be like this before I'm gonna do sleeve test and it's, really sure I can't believe how sure eyes if I just felt like around the tangles, oh, I just got really long arms or something because don't think that in jackie is supposed to be that short on the arm on sight. You want a jacket to cover the arms don't. You it's, really nice, let's, see, really lucky. It's gonna keep you really warm, tell it's highquality just a lap on the arms, the length on the body's, pretty short as well. I like the quality of it that fit just it's, not for me, it's, not it's, not the best for me to be honest. But it is a nice quality, jockey guys all right. So next up, we've got one of the pullover hoodies said, blok with the little legend on the logo on the left chest. This is a size large so let's see how it is feels quite nice and it's. A was quite soft all right. So again, it is pretty sure the sleeves. I don't know if it's did that first a host talker has to be honest, very sure on the sleeves, it's, nice, it's, quite nice material like the logo is quite nice embroidered. But it's. Not on my favorite hoodies. I think these reviews completely obvious that it's, not one of my favorite hoodies. Oh it isn't that material. It just doesn't fit me very well, right now I'll, try it tisha. So this is like a stretch material, 97%, cotton, 3%, spandex. So it's got a bit stretch again, it's got the logo embroidered on the teeth. See how it fits all right so it's, not a normal tea is supposed to have like these weird sleeves. I don't know what you call you like. I don't even know what what you call these sauces have never tried one on before don't know, if I like this, I don't think I like it, you know, I just think it looks a bit weird. I was the design is just a little bit weird, isn't. It like really it's, not oversized. Either it's just a bit weird. Let's, go back to something that we know, he's good that I know, he's really good the jeans. The jeans is what I fell in love with like they refer the first pair of jeans that I had were just so comfy honestly, there was so sort of company. I can't believe how nice they were. Well, let's try them on. We've got black with a side strap and then midnight blue with some rich and repaired all right guy. So these are the black jeans with the white side stripe. And the ribs are the knee. I wear a size 34 rag in these. And this is what made me fall in love with the brand, because the jeans are just so hood, honestly, the fit of the jeans the quality. The material is your spot on the best jeans I've ever tried. And I do like the designs that they come up with loads of different new designs. So this white side stripe is pretty cool isn't it for a pair of jeans, nice and tapered at the core turf that land really comfy and stretchy. I can bend all the way down, no problem whatsoever. Honestly, guys, really nice. The jeans are just so sick. Imagine london, I can't pull that pasta all right let's. Try on the midnight navy with some rips and repairs as well. So this is a second pair jeans midnight blue with the ribs and mnpass. Well, there's not too many rips, which I really like about them. The cooler is really nice like a really dark balloon is gonna match with a lot of outfits and the fit guys, honestly, I'm, not lying. I've tried on so many pairs of jeans. And these are the best ones really nice around the crotch really nice on the leg. And the material is just so stretchy and highquality they're just the best. So if you do not buy a pair of legend on the jeans, I don't know, what's wrong with you. If you like nice fitting tight jeans, these are the ones to go for honestly I'm, not even getting paid to say that it's not sponsored video. I stretchy get all the way down. Yeah, I love these jeans very very nice. All right. We've got two more track suits in khaki, and in red we'll, try those on now. But this is the red one that they've got it's got like a nice checkered stripe on the sleeves. This is the hoodie and I'm going to size large in the top and the bottoms come all the way back. You see the bottoms as well I'm, actually, quite a big fan of this is really nice, guys, complete cycle, polyester blend so it's quite lightweight. One thing I'm gonna say is I'm, not a massive fan of the tailored hoodie. Yes, I don't know, I just preferred normal hood. Did you know with the cuff at the bottom of the actual cookie itself? But obviously a legend, london tries to tailor towards guys that go to the gym. So he wants to be like more of an athletic fitness fit. Well is it really nice? Woody really a nice pair of joggers as well. Not the comfiest like I've tried on it's, definitely just more tailored towards guys that go to the gym. So if you're if you do go to the gym is it attractive for you, nothing compares to the legend, london jeans, that's that trademark that is what they're known for. And that is, I think their best product the jeans that's. What got them started they're just so comfy in all the different cause and designs that they've got now they are the best fit jeans. I've tried, oh let's. Try on the cocky tracksuit, see how that fits all right guys. So this is it in khaki. And she'd really do like this color. I think I prefer this one to the red one to be honest, it's more like a gray khaki, it's, quite nice. Same fit. Same design just a different color job is like a little bit short and the other size large. So if you're a tall guy, maybe size up that's, one thing that I think we need to work on maybe telling talk more towards that's all the guys, but saying that it's hard to tailor for everyone isn't it. You can tailor for everyone is it? The fuller it is really comfy to be fair, right? Castle ice all the carbon atoms, try it on from legend. London I'm, not gonna hide the hoodie and denim jacket were just a bit too small or wasn't, a massive fan of the tshirt, or the jeans are just the best jeans.

You might ask why we're taking out this nice, blue sink. But the truth is, it has to go. We've asked mike, lombardi, a master plumber to show us how to pull it out the right way. So the next part of the remodel is getting the sink out of the way, and we won't be using it again. The first thing I'm going to do make sure the water is shut off. So we have to shut off valves here that I can reach in spite of their age they're, turning quite easily. And if these didn't hold water, you'd want to go down again and use the main shutoff felt. Okay, cold is done. Here comes the hat, a little bit harder to turn, but it is going off. Okay? So the valves are off now we'll make sure they're holding, and they are there's, no water. So we're going to go on to disconnecting the tubes that connect the valve to the bottom of the faucet. I have a special wrench for that call the basin wrench it's, a special tool, that'll, allow me to reach a nut that I couldn't get to with my hands. So it has a articulating springloaded jaw on the end and then handle it here for leverage. So I have a wrench face and wrench up engage with the nut and I'm going to turn it counterclockwise to loosen it. So these nuts are really tight up here and the handle on the wrench isn't, giving me enough leverage to loosen it. So I'm going to get my adjustable wrench to help me and I'll, adjust it to fit on the square stock of the wrench. And then with that give me a little more leverage to loosen them out and there it is perfect. Now it's loose enough. I could finish it with just the basin wrench. You can see how the spring and the end of that jaw keeps it tight against the square shoulders of that nut. Okay, I can finish that. Now with my hand, okay, that's. One, disconnected, we're going to go to the hat now and I'm able to get my wrench on the lower nut of that supply connector to the faucet, and I should be able to turn that. And I did, yep, it's loose, very good. So it takes a little patience to back this nut off ahead, a little corrosion on it, which is typical. But the good thing is that the piping is round and the nut is actually cooperating. And once we get this loose, then we're going to go on to disconnecting the drain, okay, there it is we're going to disconnect the drain next. And because this is a very old fashioned connection with a nice tramp connected to a steel nipple. We could cut this with a sawzall, but it's, just as easy to loosen the nut where the tailpiece from the sink ties in. And then that will be loose. And when the sink is out of the way we'll finish dealing with this threaded connection on this big trap. So here's, the nut there's, a wrench. I always like to grab the nut as high as possible, where there's a little bit sturdier to make sure we don't squeeze it out around. If you squeeze it out around, it won't come off the pipe, the thread very easily. So that's, disconnected, we're, ready to remove the sink. So this sink came with the option of extra support feet in the front, which were connected to a towel bar or washcloth holder, but because we're demo, these are going to fall away quite easily. But this was really a nice feature for the sink, and it made it an extra sturdy installation at the time. Okay and just pick straight up a little wiggle and there you can see now look at this, whoever installed the sink in the beginning. It must have been rocking on here a little bit. So we put this little piece of cardboard take up that gap or that space and stop it from wiggling that's, pretty resourceful. And imagine it lasted about 70 years. Okay, the sinks gone we're going to clean up the rest of this piping and plumbing and we're going to start with the trap and I'm going to get my wrench and I'm going to grab it right here. And it should come apart pretty easily because they're dissimilar metals. We have a brass alloy here and probably a steel pipe behind their twofoot length of give me plenty of leverage and we'll just pull up. And it actually came off quite simply well, catch the water make a little adjustment on the wrench there we go now we got it and we'll finish it with a pair of channellocks there. We go that's it all right. Now we got the drain out of the way we got these two valves to screw out of here will remove this old bracket that held up the sink and we're going to get started on demoing the floor.

Hey, yo, everybody patches here. And in this video, we are going to continue our journey through rusty lake routes. We are going to continue along emma's branch, which has come to a tragic end over here with her suicide. I really have no idea what to expect. We've seen a lot of what's happened, but we haven't seen how it got to that point. And some of it is just so deep so deep. And so disturbing, I am not even sure how to react to some of what we're seeing. But anyway, that's, what happens when we delve into a disturbing game? So party geez? Let me know what you think for 1924 the well part one, oh, this must be frank. This is frank as a grownup. Now he fell down the wall by the way as a child because albert pushed him down the well was ridiculous. Well, he didn't push him. He kind of like turned the handle of the well that lowers the bucket. And he was holding on to that handle as albert was turning it. He fell. It was ridiculous, but he kept his teddy throughout all these years. Oh, my gosh, can you imagine living in a well for most of your life, that's, the paper plane that he throws in albert's quest water, food and wouldn't stick. These must be symbols that he needs to send up in order to get these things. We've got teddy here got a piece of string that we can send up. And we've got a sharp rock. Will this help us right? Will this help us write on the paper? I don't know why this is paper plane, oh it's to send it up, but we didn't even write anything. Oh, okay. Then well that makes things easier for us. Okay, so what does he want? First of all he wants. He wants berries. He wants food. So we need to send a piece of string and a yshaped stick, hmm. How will I do this for him? I hope, huh? What this is so rad, oh, they're feeding him food through the cellar, through the bars of albert cellar and he's kind of attacking them. But why do they keep him alive? This is so strange. I wonder why he kept him alive for this long he's, an adult now he probably wants water by now he does want a drink how unfortunate that we know that that drink is dog pee. He wants why and string why and string. Okay, send it up go up why? You know go up all the string has to be straight. How do I manipulate the stream? Wait? Can I get more string from the bear? Really I can't. I need to get it. Oh, wait. Do I need to use the stick perhaps to indicate the straight thing? Okay, yes. I do. Go up. Give me. Ma, water I'll just say, it's water. We do know, oh, gosh that horrendous liquid is actually the pee from the eternal dog, drink it up. Oh, this is so nasty. What does he want? Now? Oh, he wants grilled fish. Let us send the message for grilled fish. First we need to put the spiral string. And the why stick send it up. And we get grilled fish let's eat this up. Nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom, nom ads, up there we go. Okay, then well, he kind of inhale inhale. He kind of inhaled it and then spat out the bone structure of the fish that's ridiculous. Now he wants a wooden stick. I guess he wants to scratch his back? Oh, what's the symbol for it again, oh fish bones. And why stick with the string across it? Oh, wait. No, why stick with the straight stick across it and give you the fish bones? Oh, wait. I've got the fish bones there. So I just need to put the fish bones in the bucket now fish bones in deep pockets, send it up come on send it up. Oh, the fish bones have to be first let's fix this up. And there we go. Why do we get our wooden stick let's hand this over to frank here? Use the stick? Why are you doing that? What are you doing with the stick? Frank? Oh frank. Why? Oh, this is the part where he escapes from the well, how intelligent it only took him 20 or so years to do it. How did he even live down there that long? I didn't know, the immune systems of these people were so great back in the 1800s, early 1900s, still that's, an amazing survival, winter, 1927, the bathroom okay, we're in the house. Now it looks like he's having himself a little bath. What is he thinking? He wants the temperature to go up the temperature of the water. Do we need to boil some we need to get some coal. It seems there's a bottle there is that a flask. The temperature is still very low. Oh, gosh. The windows are all broken. Do we have to fix this? We have to fix this mess. Okay, I guess we do just board that up board that up will this help keep the house warm warm? Okay. The temperature went up was that enough. He wants to go up a bit more. What can I do to help him out? I think I need to feel something with water and then make it boil that was dramatically loud. Anyway, I guess that had to happen for us to get the key what's. The key for though if this covered, perhaps we got some coal and the other parts locked, but we got matches gotta stay on the lookout for another key. So that we can open up the rest of the cupboard. But first let's put the coal in here and light it up. This should help significantly now we can use the buckets. I guess we have to fill that up with water get the water with the bucket in it. It the the the bucket filled with water and then heated up. Okay, that should be enough and then we'll give this to frank. Now, he's happy. Happy, wait. He wants the temperature to go up further, but the temperatures rather high now isn't. It wasn't that good enough for you frank, oh, my gosh, oh, I have to close this window silly me will that make him happy? Now he still wants the temperature to go up. What could I possibly do to make the temperature? Go higher? This thermometer is nearly off the charts. This guy's, crazy. Ah, he just wanted us activate the stove. Well easier said than done. We've got the key now to the bottom of that drawer let's open it up, and we got some scissors. What can we use the scissors for to cut his hair? Perhaps he does need a bit of a trim, especially that beard of his it's quite beastly. Oh he's shaping up to be such a handsome young man. Okay, we got here. Now I don't want to make him bald. He looks pretty handsome as it is. I should have left it earlier. He had a pretty cool anime style. Hairstyle there that seemed awesome. I guess we have to put the hair in this vial for that messed up ritual that this family is doing. How is he in on it he's been in a well for like the last? However, the knee is, oh well, the branch is gonna join up winter. 1930, the stars, good old, frank, okay. We've got bird food here, a card and some sort of puzzle with letters on it greats. What does frank once frank? Once he doesn't know what he wants, which is fine, not everybody knows what they wants, but we will figure it out. Do you seem like tarot cards and I don't know what this pattern here means, but I guess it's, oh, wait. This is a painting of frank as a child with his mother emma. And I don't know what these markings mean they'll make sense soon enough. I suppose perhaps their constellations wait, let me collect that card. Okay, what's this. Oh it's. A puzzle. I guess I have to join up the lines? Huh? Oh I fix it. It sweet all right, let's. Climb down here. More of these puzzles more of these markings on portraits. What could they possibly mean? Wait frank's down here as well? Did I actually use the ladder? No, I didn't. Okay, I've got a card here. The cube do I do with this card. Do I make a cube with the telescope somehow, or do I find a cube can I combine these stars? I'm guessing, it's this here, this looks very qbo. I can okay. So it's just a drawing exercise. This is pretty fun. This doesn't seem too macabre. So far, right that puzzle solved. I've also got bird food here. Can I place it here? Okay, we've got ourselves. A bird with a message it's, a mary's message, the one that she sent before she before she killed herself let's give the message to him. Dear son, I have been looking for you for so long. If you find this letter look for me in the stars, your mother, my gosh, it's making so much sense why she even wrote that now she's, literally in the stars because she killed herself. Oh man, this game this game it's so it's so intense it's, so deep he's, he's quiet. Now, what can I do with these cards? Look for me in the stars is he referring to these paintings? Okay. So I've got to look for this. Lightning bolt symbol, slash sigma ii symbol. One two, three, four, five, six, six stars. Okay, let's. Go back to the telescope. Huh? Oh, I can put the cards here for reference. So I need to find a deer as well. Oh, this is going to be very fun. This looks like it could be the tree. I guess it is. Yes, that's. That is the tree let's see if we can make the curry now, while the crane looks pretty straight forward and up like here, and then here, and then here sweets sweets. Last one is the deal and the triangles here. And then here, sweet, wait, there's, more, oh man, I thought all was really good for a moment. Oh, well, that's a pretty fun puzzle. Did something open up he's just staring at that letter does is he not shocked that his model is trying to find him this whole time or maybe he's like mom, I've been in the wall outside the house that you live in for the past 30 years. You couldn't find me, I think I need to follow the symbols on the portrait now. So I've got to pay close attention. I need to drag it out of it. We go. Okay, we've got mary in the stars, he's acting that's. All you have to say we revived you from the stars. And all you told us to do was something that we already did. Thanks mary. We've got this guy's messed up pattern. I hope I remember this when I go back to the telescope, one, two, three, four, five, six, it seems they're all made of six stars looks like an l shape, the huge tail at the top like this. Yep, oh it's. A cyrus is a cyrus aldous. Hello brother, make sure the grandchildren find the three timepieces bring the branches back together. What what was that I need to find the three timepieces. I never would have known this guy who was a cyrus? What the heck, oh and the ladders gone now, so I need to do something with this lens. Do I need to put this on the letter? I do so where can I place this? I need a place this over a v. I guess ve waits love lov. E, is that the code to the lock l? Oh my gosh, I went into complete weight. These letters are out of whack l. Okay, uh, v and e, oh, we've got the elixir medallion with the hindi writing on it. Okay, let's give him. The rune medallion. A frank is fulfilling the destiny of the van der booms. And the branches are joining together. But it seems that I still have to go through samuel story, let's complete one of samuels puzzles summer, 1889, the fortune teller. So remember we summoned the fortune teller after fixing the clock, a couple of episodes ago, actually quite a few episodes ago, there's a lot of dolls that are hanging on that tree there. I never thought. Samuel would be the one that's into voodoo. Okay? What do I need to do here? Fortune teller help us out. I guess I need to rearrange these cards, but in what way what's on this table, you've got a king a devil and a bold guy. I guess these are telling us where to put the cards on the table. So the devil goes on the circle. The king goes on the triangle. The devil goes on the circle here. And the king goes on the triangle, I'm. Assuming the one with the picture of the king goes on the triangle, but none of these really resemble a king, the star, the empress, perhaps it's, the empress, the empress goes on the triangle, and we've got some bald guy. Wait the upsidedown triangle have got to be sure. Okay, goes here. The hanged man go. The hanged man goes on the pin the one with the picture of a pin on it, the hanged man. And I don't know what that bald one represents, but the baldy it goes on the other triangle, maybe it's death. Let's continue. Oh, we need a key for the star. Hmm, give us a hint. Fortune teller, hope she and budgin what a stingy one. Oh, the guy in the tree is on the circle, which one represents nature, the hermit. And then I guess the star goes here, sweet, which means you're gonna give us a key. Slip does the key. Thank you. All right. Let's open the star covered inside. We have the glass sphere. This is something that fortune tellers is used to actually look into the future for those who don't know, let's, grab it. What are we gonna do let's? Take a look? What is that? Oh, that's the view outside the window of the van der booms house. This frank at the telescope, some sort of, oh, it's, albert's with a demon mask on, oh, wow, it's, showing everything that actually happened in the future future. What a shame we didn't go down samuel street. First, frank as an old man in the well, we got eyeless, dude, we've got emma. We've got gosh, rose a car. Remember, her name was it rose on. This is let's, bring it back all the bad memories all right let's. Get out of here. Thanks fortune teller. We have to keep looking at the fortunes or what oh wait, it's, also giving us clues to the other puzzles. I think I need to rearrange the cards in the puzzle again, she's on the x he's on the. I guess he's the hermit. He has to go on the pin the hermit on the pin the devil on the triangle facing upward. If I read on the pin again, not really sure is that the empress and press on the x, the death on the circle. And then I guess we'll trial in there of the last one, the death and the circle, wait, which circle was it was it? This one and then trial and error on the last one, maybe it was this circle that the death had to be on there. We go the fanta, boom, family, it's, albert wearing that creepy, goat, skull, costume. That was such a cheap jump scare. Oh, my gosh. My heart, oh my gosh, oh that smug face of yours sucks right now, oh my goodness, oh my gosh, you won't believe how badly that shocked me just now now that's fortuneteller is ida all along the fortune teller was idle. I think that's enough for me for this episode.

This is the large type beautiful purple bloom on it. But what was done here? These were actually one plant that were huge. This was one plant and the middle of it pretty much died out in the center. You could see down you've done a ring pattern. But this thing got huge. So what we're doing with the walk as you can see taking out a this outer row? And then the plan is just shift these stepping stones, a little to the right and then top dress with some more good stuff, see how it's just too wide, the encroachment of that row, monkey grass, plus from up here on the roof. He gets a little more light that ray does. So we can even fill in that spot. Anyway, I'm just gonna keep on moving along we'll be back in a minute. All right. Folks, we're just moving right along here with this project. I just want to show you what you can do with some of this right? You don't want to waste it. This is beautiful stuff.

Take your division your ip simply place it in the hole. Look at that free plants, people free plants, how that's cut three plants, baby, free plants. Okay, folks. So here we have it. This is the goal here was to give this more of a spread. If you look back at the original first part of the video, just to try to widen this walk a little bit, and we've got some free plants out of the deal we'll. Go all the way down to this valley down here. So pretty simple free plants, we're, just gonna top dress this off with some more nice, fresh white rock, that's, riverstone and we'll be done beautiful day day, went back to this. Remember, the sod job we did it's growing in really well. And the dog is just loving it. Back here. Alright, we'll talk to you. Okay, folks, so this is the finished product.

If you want to be extra careful, you can use intimate wash to wash it. Please don't use any soap. It made it eight your vagina vagina. Another method is boil your menstrual cup either in a pot, or in a microwave, put one tablespoon of baking soda on your boiling water, make sure the cup stays floating at the top of the pot, the whole time because the bottom will be hot enough to burn or melt shaaka after boiling, you know, for 15 minutes, let it cool dry with paper towel or toilet paper and store your cup.

Hi everyone, it's clyde affected. So today, I'm remaking, another batch of black raspberry vanilla. I said it so many times I don't really want to do it the same way every single time. So this is the one for recurrence that I kind of say, okay, you get to play around with the design. It doesn't matter. If you do it differently than you did before class, it's, an easy for us to work with a sudden discover it doesn't accelerate. So I would have fun with this one and then look back at. So if I made called lemonlime sublime, you can find your lemon lime, sublime three the third version of that. And I really liked how that turned out. I kind of left that design be. I haven't done anything with that same technique. So I want to use that technique with different colors for black raspberry vanilla so that's, what I'm going to show you today. And there is a color tutorial. So after that we'll get right to the soap making okay, I'm gonna start off by just mixing up my pastels. And this is, um, black raspberry vanilla. So I want to put some very close in there, and I rarely take black raspberry vanilla, literally, in other words, I don't usually use black because I looked at blackberries and no blackberries are an intense dark purple. So that's, what I'm going to do and get this boy I because I'm taking that, literally. So here is like a lilac and I'm, pretty happy with that maybe a little bit more loose. So that it looks more purple than pink that's good. And then I'm gonna have some pink as well that's. Why? I really didn't want the purple to look like pink when I can have pink look like pink lips, pink in the wrong thing. Okay, I'll fix that. Okay, how do I fix that adding more glue? That's good. So I think that takes care of my pastels for this. One let's, see, ya. So let me make my deeper purple. And then we'll add a little bit of black to that. Someone recently asked me if colored silk you bleed and do they give off their color when you use them in the lather, and they do and some people don't like that. But I like the bright colors, but I do refrain a little bit because I know people don't like too, much color coloring their lather. So those are some colors right there. A pink probably a more of a plum purple I'll, get that going we'll add a little bit of white to that. And the easiest way to get a plum is usually to use a little bit of brown. Then we use a little bit black. So that that's like a shade I'll, miss. You run with it I'll know, when I see it that's, pretty close close. Take one a little more red. So I sometimes they use brown is because of the red that's, usually in the brown makes a nice, plum, color, that's, good, unless lastly, I'm going to use a pretty mature green, although I'm using the alpine green or largest soap and alpine green leaf is a little bit more of a shade of green with soap will lighten that up a bit so hanging a white that's, pretty close to be out playing greens. That may be a little bit more of a shade, but added black and white to that, which is like a gray. And if I had great to a color, it's, really not it's more of a tone and talked about that last time. So let's see how these colors look on paper to kind of show you what I'm doing 2 I'm using these greens and purple kind over here. Let's get the blue so it's a little bit of an analogous. And I skip the color, and it went to the purple, which gives more of a dynamic look to it rather than a blending of analogous colors. When you start are doing my pastels starting with this off this pastel, while it was on the paper just completely disappear. So make that a little bit more strong, there's, my pink and then my lilac right next to that. So I think as I get closer to spring, the more I'm going to be using these pastels and hold back from some of it more pure colors and let's use that deep purple that's going to be just about like darkest, learn the scope so far that looks pretty good and also have whitening this one here's, my plum and the more coordinated, but close. The colors are to each other like this plum in the purple, the more sophisticated, the colors in looks because it looks like you've worked for it a little bit more than right out of the tube and let's get some of that going in there. And once you a little bit of green, yeah, look something like that little ambitious on this because there's so many colors, I'm also going to have the titanium dioxide white. Yeah, that will look nice together. And then I look at that, and think with that suit black raspberry vanilla. And I think it does so that's. The code tutorial is to you how that comes out with the mic risen, the soap. So I've all my colors poured already start off with my lightest color, which is white. I don't know what my lightest color is here tell me my pink with titanium dioxide to make it. A lighter pink, concentrating on very light colors. So let's go to the next. One fragrance was already in there in it. Well, it's, really my favorite scent, quite so popular. My lap and here's, my darker purple with a little bit of black crop side. And then my green this is, I believe alpine greens with a little bit black in it. So everything's mixed up. Let me get my mulder. So actually, not really ready for the mold quite yet. Because as I said, I'm going to pour this just like, I did my third version of lemonlime, sublime haven't done that I really like the way that one turned out, and I haven't ever replicated that so it's like a, um like in the pots world. But it's also like a fullfrontal, poor hybrid, I'll get most of that in there I'll keep and look at for the top, not very much. So a whole final four have colors, basically poured right on top of each other and I'm going to do that in here. But with some of the colors I'm going to pour it in different areas of the base. So here's, my deep purple set in three areas and leave some for the top and probably the most contrasting little thing I can put in there is the pink. Let me go right into that 76 from that to the top. So my lilac go in a different area. Maybe in the middle take some of that for the top, the deep pink is going to go in to those areas in one of its own areas kinda improvised. And I know the general thing I'm trying to do here and the green and maybe that area and a different area. So this isn't going to get a stir at all it's just going to go right into the mold. So, thank you can see that support from the side and just let the colors swirl on their own be that as it's beautiful and scrape. The rest in here for people beginning, their soap making journey black raspberry. Vanilla is probably one of the easiest fragrances to work with it. Doesn't do anything crazy like rice or accelerate or discolor. And they also smells awesome. Okay, let's get some of this color on the top. Actually what I wanted to do also is to do a little bit of chopsticks were just on the top. Oh, oh, applause let's, go for this lilac and purple. So they're alternating, the darker colors I'm, trying to go linearly through the mold. So I'm do nice swirl on top alternating to the next lightest color, which is this cloak like a strawberry milk pink. And then this deep pink, I snuck a little purple in there, too so it's, really like a raspberry and let's crown that all with a little white. Why did I put the white on top it's? Because I forgot all about it until now? How many of you forget to put things into your soap and have to improvise at the last minute? Let's, go so I'm going to try something a little noon because we do have to improvise sometimes I'm going to do a little bit more of a chopstick. So on top to dig up some of those colors before I do the actual throw on top. Now, let's try this. I think that worked. And I actually like the way that turns out so there's, the top of my black raspberry vanilla, the latest version of that until next day I need to do is get some litter on top of that and it's done there. We go now let's. Take a look at what that looks like cut cool. I like this royal, it has to me surprises. I really have to compare this to my third version of lemonlime, sublime because that's where I try this type of spoil for the first time, remember that I basically did a full set up or in parts of us in the pops world. And in some areas when it was in the pot, rice, just poured colors in its own little distinct area, but gives a lot of detail. And unlike that feathered look, right in there, trying to combine all different colors that varies in this, but except for strawberry, yes, like all the variations of purple too. But all those colors from there. Okay, here's my last cut that's quite different to. This is private vibrant soap. Thanks for watching all the videos and make sure you check out that lemon pie. Video, I made and check me out on instagram, two and we'll. See you real soon. I've got a lot of videos to edit. So I know that they're on their way soon take care everybody bye.

welcome to tomahawk diy, I'm. Mike today, we're gonna take a look at this garbage disposal, that's making a funny noise. Now I've got another video that shows different ways to unplug or kinda troubleshoot a garbage disposal. So you might wanna check that out this. One also will show an important tip that's valuable for dealing with garbage disposal. Problems, so, something's gotten clogged down there,. We kinda had the dish wand get munched up in it there's, a whole lot more white plastic that is now long gone. So that might be the problem. I also had a little boy that was washing off his rocks in the sink,. So we could have some rocks in there let's see if we can hear what the noise is now obvious safety, warning,, make absolutely certain your power is off when you're working on a disposal. The easiest thing to do is try and find what's making the noise, get your hand in there, feel around, try to find something that's stuck under one of the blades. If you can't find that out, that's where this trick comes in really handy it's, actually to take the disposer off. If it's not very hard let's, take a look all right,. So under the sink,, a few important things, as I have mentioned power. Now I conveniently have a power outlet and mine's. Plugged in,. I can just unplug it. If you don't have one of these,, I recommend you go the circuit breaker and turn it off, make sure it's not working. You are gonna want a bucket, cause you might lose some water. You gonna want a little towel to help dry things up so, on our disposal, up. Here is the key trick that can help us to loosen this. And before we take this off though,, we need to disconnect a few different things. I mentioned the power, already, I'm gonna disconnect the piping here, now, depending on your orientation,, you maybe losing, getting some water to leak out here,. So this is when you wanna have your bucket out handy, we got it off,, not too much water,. Okay, now, with everything disconnected,. And this comes to be too, so be warned of that with everything disconnected, a couple things to be aware of up here, one, don't mess with the screws, here,. Okay, you might be tempted to try and deal with those screws, that's actually kinda clamping, everything down, so that your sink doesn't leak around the seal,. Our trick is going to be to unscrew these. Now this one is easy, enough,, I'm, actually able to grab it with my hands and undo it. You may find you need a screwdriver to push on in there to provide some leverage, don't, pry out, you're trying to screw this rotator, okay,. So you'd pushing on it, you can also take an allen wrench, or something like that to get in there to be able to push on it as you unscrew this,, it's got some weight,. So it's gonna come, come down,. You can gonna double check and make sure I've got everything disconnected, cause. I don't wanna break any piping or tubes,. Then I'm gonna support it from the bottom. Well, I,, we should rotate it in that direction all right,. So here we go, supporting it, slide. It down okay, with that. We'll have easy view of insides all right,. So with this off, let's, take a closer look it's. Also a good time to remind you, make sure you don't put water down the drain while this thing is off, put a bucket,, a towel, tape,, something over your sink to be sure it's, not gonna be making a, getting water running down and making yourself a mess. So we're looking here and it's kinda hard to see on the camera,, but let's see if we can get some light, oh, by the way, here's, a flashlight to,. I love this thing. It's got a magnet on the end I'm gonna include a link to amazon, really great handy tool for working with, it's called a big larry, love. It anyway,. So we see some sponge down there around that blade,, looking around the edges, got some more stuff, messed around in there,. It looks like there's some chunks of plastic right there. You can see a little bit of white plastic sticking out, it's gotten munched, some more sponge,. So definitely some stuff to clean out and the power disconnected. And this thing down it's, pretty easy to reach in the pens, needle, nose, pliers, things like that will clean it up,. So let's do that. Now if you've ever wondered, what's going on inside a garbage disposal,, here's, your chance to find out, so we got these big metal blades and they can move around as you can see they spin around. And then along the edges of the wall, it's, a little bit hard to see,. But there is some jag and bump sticking out, there's, little bits of holes where chunks of food that had been busted up go down the drain. So I'm gonna go ahead and turn this on,. So we can kinda see what happens, obviously, as I've said, before,, absolutely don't, try this at home. This is for demonstration purposes, only and you're responsible for your own safety,. So do not give this a try on your own all right,, just for fun, let's. See? What happens if we put something in, there's, an egg shell, let's drop this guy in there. So now you know what dispose looks like at least without water running through it. Obviously, these little chunks would be washed down all right,. So now we've got this thing cleaned out over here,. You can see some of the junk that got dug out of it seems to be working fine, we're gonna put it all back together all right,. So I go to put this thing back together,, I'm gonna make sure my o ring,. My seal up here, is cleaned off,. I don't want,. I don't want to be springing a leak or anything like that. So that seems to be nice and clean now, to put it back together, obviously, make sure your different nozzles and connections line up properly with things that came when it came apart. And as you tighten, this on, make sure you've got it good on all three sides, all right,. Well, thanks for watching tomahawk, diy hope you find this helpful, like the video,, try it,, leave some comments and appreciate it. If you use the fill it link,, the video description,, or you know, share the video with others to help support the mission of tomahawk diy,, which is to help people build better lives in some of the most dire circumstances you can read more about that on the, about me page of the video as you hook, it all back together,, don't, forget to watch for some leaks, here, we're gonna turn on the water. And then check out my other videos,. I've got several about drains,, clogs,, disposals and several videos about different issues. All right, let's, turn the water on and see if there's any leaks. Yeah, we hear it running,. So far, don't, see anything coming out that's a good sign,, I'm gonna keep an eye on this. The next couple of days as well and have a great day.

We'd agree pro tips professional tips from the industry, wieder epoxy grout removal to repair damaged tile or grout line. The first step is to remove the grout to avoid damaging, any additional tiles following two removal, methods will demonstrate removing epoxy grout from the grout line using a diamond blade cutting tool or a heat gun for these removal, methods always protect any adjoining, carpeting woodwork or other finishes near the work area verify results. First with a small test area in an inconspicuous location, remove at least one half the depth and any loose or broken material from the existing grout joint. Prior to regrouting, provide effective, ventilation, mechanical removal use a small circular right angle saw equipped with a diamond cutting blade to cut into the grout line. This method is fast, but great care must be taken to avoid damage to the tile surface and edges. This method will create a lot of dust. The use of a vacuum system will minimize the amount of airborne dust working slowly, carefully cut a single saw blade line into the length of a grout line. Once enough growl has been removed from the grout line. It will be possible to remove the remaining grout with a sharp utility knife, make sure all damaged crowell has been removed to at least 1/2 the depth of the grout line before regrouting heat gun removal use a highpower industrial heat gun with a temperature capability of at least 300 to 500 degrees fahrenheit, 150 degrees to 260 degrees celsius. The heat gun will soften the cure grout and enable it to be scraped out. This method is fast, but not suitable for all types of tile and zone, soft stones and tile can be damaged by excessive heat high heat can also damage the glaze on tiles, apply a heat to a small test area to verify results do not use gas torches, apply heat to a small patch of the material to verify. How long you will need to heat the grout line, slowly heat, small sections of the grout line use a sharp utility knife to test for softness. The heat gun method requires patience work in small areas work, slowly scrape, the soft grout out as you go remove all stop and grout prior to regrouting for grout repairs. You must remove approximately 1/2. The depth of the grout line. This method may produce some odor.

Today, we'll be talking about cooling fan relays, specifically, how do you test them? Now, obviously, the very very first step is just finding where the relay lives. So if we take a look underneath the hood of this vehicle, this happens to be a 97, maxima, right next to the battery with a little box. And right here, these are a bunch of different relays. And if we take a look says, radiator fan number one, number two and number three. Now the reason why we have three relays is because it's a twospeed fan. So this is for the low speed. And these guys work the high speed. So usually generally speaking when the cooling the coolant temperature is under when hits run 203 degrees, the cooling fan turns off that's, the low speed, or when you turn on your air conditioning, the low speed should turn on immediately. Now, the high speeds turn on around 213 degrees fahrenheit. So it also depends on engine speed or another with how fast you're going or vehicle speed. I should say, but that being said, these, this is what you want to look for. So we're going to take off the box, okay? And we tick off the box just a little clip that's, all they are okay. And soon we'll have a separate video showing on how to test the fans to low speed, the high speed, the relays, the connectors, the harness connectors so on and so forth. But let's see let's say, you've pinpointed, you think it may be a relay problem. This is something you can quickly do so right here you have a harness connector. So I'm just going to push it out a little bit and pull up on the relay put this down. So still a little tight we'll do it again, just want to be gentle, especially with something like this that's 20 years old, you know, you don't want to overdo it there. You go it's, really number one. So again, by looking at this diagram, this is number two and that's. Number three, there we go a little tight, I'm, just pulling up on this. And this is a little bit different. You want to push in just a touch as you can see to push it in and just take your time work it out, oh, oh that hurt. Now, let's put this on a bench and I'll show you and how you can test these now we're going to test all three relays. But this is how you can quickly do this test really on any vehicle. So take a look at the diagram on top of the relay. And all that this means is when number one and terminal number two is energized. In other words, when it receives 12 volts worth of power numbers, three and five turn on it's, essentially a switch a relay that's all it is so right now, there's, no power being applied to this. So terminals three and five back here are not connecting okay. When you apply power to number one and two, then three and five make a connection. Now, how do you test that you can sometimes you can try by listening if there's a click, but really the best way is to do a continuity test. Continuity means two points, make a connection to do that. You need a multimeter and multimeters are just one of the best tools you can obtain if you plan on doing your own auto repair very very simply, you can purchase one of these at sears lowe's home depot or the parts store amazon. But the symbol that you want to look for for continuity. It looks like a wifi hotspot. Okay, this guy right here. That means continuity. Now, let me just hook up. The leads. You can get a perfectly fine multimeter for maybe twentyfive dollars or so. And you can not only do all the motive work. I recently repaired my guest dryer clothes, dryer using the multimeter. You can do repairs for your ac system on your house. And you could just do a lot of electrical tests with a bulkhead meter. So what you want to hear stuff like this? Okay, okay, when we apply power. So the next question becomes, how do I apply power to terminals 1? &Amp; 2, we don't have anything you can use your car battery. Now, this will cumbersome so what I'm going to use of an rc battery pack this pushes out pretty close to 12 volts. So I'm just going to grab alligator clips connected to terminals 1, & 2 and we'll see if we have continuity, if you're getting a little confused, let me hook everything up and I'll show you how simple it is to test one of these. And you can really do this type of relay test on any component on your vehicle. So you want to test ac relays if you want to test grab this other one, the cooling fan relays that we have here starter relays relays for actual. You can hear it click, well them you hear that now that's, not always a sure sign that this is working correctly. So keep the power there. And now you just get this cleaned up a little bit. So now we want to see if we have continuity. So just take the leads turn those three and five, and we should hear an audible alert. And there you go. Okay, good connection. There we go laughter laughter. So that verifies that we have continuity. This is working correctly. This valve or excuse me, this relay you're working perfectly well, that's what you want to see. So here we have the high speed, the high speed relays and same exact thing. If you apply power to terminals 1, & 2, 1, & 2, just look for this symbol. If you apply power, then terminals 5, & 3 make a connection and 7, & 6, both of them do same with this 5, &, 3 7, & 6. So if you flip over this relay, let me just get this situated here. So terminals 1 & 2 are these guys. These are 1 & 2. And these happen to be 3. &Amp; 5, 6, & 7, okay. So again, if we do continuity because there's, no power being supplied here we should have no continuity, right? We should not hear this. Ok, here we go. &Amp; 5, absolutely nothing same with this. So let's apply power. Beginning will confuse if I'm going too fast just rewatch it over and over again. But essentially all that you're doing is applying 12 volts worth of power directly to the relay. And then making sure that these switches are making a close connection and that's. What continuity does is test that two points make a connection. Okay, so here we go applied direct power, let's, see if it clicks, which it does so let's test it beyond that. Okay, grab our multimeter. Here we go. So that makes a connection. Let me zoom in here. Let me do that again. Number is three and five. Okay, that's good and number six and seven. Okay, that's working good. Same with this apply power. The terminals 1 & 2. You get this out of the way. Okay, sorry about that. So again, we're just applying power again. This is clicking just make sure you guys can hear this. Okay and same exact thing. Number three and five, okay, six and seven that's. It that's, all it takes to test your cooling fan relays, very very simple. Each of these wires on cross so that's, how you read the fan relay and that's it? So very very simple. Now again, this is just testing the relay if you want to test your scent, your cooling fans, the harness connectors so on and so forth, I will have a separate video very very shortly showing a hiking test both the cooling fans on low high speed, harness connectors, a whole bunch of stuff, really the next step of beyond this. So if you like this, please thumbs up, subscribe we'll, see you next time.

Okay, so we are back for this is got to be at least around 3:00 now bananas are gone. Hibiscus is gone. Now we have to work on the board manatee is here. I think tracy. And I who is just off camera has come to the conclusion. We are all actually going to keep one of the bird matches that's in the ground. So one of them is going to go into the firewood pile, which is actually the compost. Sadly, but um, we can't keep everything. So we have to make some choices because we just don't have that much room what we're gonna do first is trim it down to a manageable size hannibal sighs, it's like trimming, the banana to a manageable size. So hopefully this goes a little bit better than that. Um, I don't see is heavy of trunk on this guy as we did on the last one we're going to get it and kind of shape it to where we want it to go, put it in one of those big 25 gallon pots. And yeah, hopefully we can store this guy in the garage with a little less trouble. Then the bananas have been causing us. So anyways, let's get started. So this guy's, um, twelve or fifteen feet tall as well, we're gonna remove a bunch of the side shoots on it to give it a straight upanddown. Look, most of the foliage is gonna come off now being that it's going to drop off once we get in the garage. Anyways for the winter we're now, working with the trusty, um gravel shovel, because we just destroyed the last shovel. So probably not gonna go as easy as um. We wanted to and tracy has got a pair of good sized cutters that she's gonna work on the branches with I note on that board, mentees are quite toxic. So we're gonna have to watch you don't get any of the juices on us and wash our hands. Why laughter so she's actually going to direct and I'm going to cut here he's like I brides like this. This right here is 'm that's. So pretty sad that these are the scraps that were taking off just to make sure I can fit in the garage. All our trees came from a cutting like this that was stripped of the leaves on the bottom and rooted in the grounds that's, a good point. But any of these guys if you have a cutting, or you have a piece this big, they do make cuttings very easily. So that's, definitely a different video, but know what can be done and earlier in the season it has to be able to where we go again. So this one's gonna be much easier. I can feel it later. Okay, see if this goes any easier, maybe no so far, not anything there we go. Now we want to position it just right in there, because hopefully this will be its new upright position. We can give it a bit better trim, too and shape it. We go simple easy way to remove your berg mansi from the ground. When it's a 12foot tree, oh, well. Anyways, as I say, the last one we're just going to cut down its gonna partially go in the compost, there's there's, no room, there's gonna be stored in the garage until spring, we'll, leave them outside until the frost warnings. Just allow them to transition transition, excuse me and stay outside as long as they possibly can. So hopefully they'll get released another few weeks out here in the pots to transition anyways. I hope you enjoyed these videos. And if you want to see more videos like this make sure you check out our channels as always thanks for watching.

Hey, moonwalkers, this river gives back with another video. And today, I'm gonna be building something for my betta 2018 video that no other impersonator as far as I know has ever built or even attempted to accomplish. And I think you'll love it. You know and beat it at the beginning of the live performance. He has a cherry picker. So I was trying to figure out how to do that how to put an animated cherry picker and have me riding and being able to hold on to the things. And I realized the only way to do it was to build it. I always over achieve when it comes to mj. So I never thought I'd be building a cherry picker, but that's, my goal. So I'm gonna show you of my idea I'm going to build just the top mechanism, just the main box that he stands in of the cherry picker. Then I'll be able to put it on greenscreen, make it move and all that so I'm just going to assemble this to look like a cherry picker. And then I'm, just gonna spraypaint it all with this metallic metal spraypaint that I bought so I'll start cutting and we'll see how this goes. My goal is to just build the cart of the cherry picker. Then I can move around inside it in front of a green screen and using editing I can make it move and add an animated neck. So my goal is not to teach you how to build a cherry picker here, but it's to teach you how to think outside of the box and don't take no for an answer, just because something seems too hard anything and everything can be done I'm just showing you how I do this stuff, how I prepared for a video to show you how to not take no for an answer and how you can really make almost anything. In fact, you can make anything happen. If you just think, how can I accomplish this, and this is going to work. And this is my idea on how to do it. So I'm gonna finish kind of putting this all together for those of you interested in making the cherry picker. I just took a piece of plywood four feet by four feet, and I made the legs with pvc pipe, and I spraypainted it all black and I'm gonna drill holes in the would put the legs through and attach them on securely. So here is the finished product. And I can say it looks pretty good compared to the actual cherry picker cart and no one's ever tried it before. You know, and I always want to top myself and think outside of the box. So this is definitely gonna work out well. Now I do want to say, it's important to not think about those things, too early and that's. One of the biggest things that mj taught if you think about special effects. If you think about these big, awesome moments, too early it's, gonna ruin the dance. And the most important thing is the dance and the talent and the dancing. So that's, why? For the last couple weeks, I've been really rehearse in the songs to make sure I have it how I want it before I focus on these extra cool things. And I think artists today, focus too much on the special effects and the lighting in the pyro. But if you combine raw dance and raw talent with just the right amount of artwork and special effects, there's, a fine little line. And I think that promotes the best content ever and I'm just so excited to see this cherry. Picker idea. Come together. Okay, guys. I want to show you one more thing before I in this video, I was thinking, you can't have the cherry picker without having the big long black trench coat. Now I looked around online for trench coats that were similar. None of the mj impersonation websites had anything like that. I couldn't find it anywhere. So I decided I was gonna make it myself, and this makes it funny, but guess what I've decided to make it out of trash bags. Now that might seem cheap. You might be saying, oh, my god, that's so terrible. But as long as it looks good on screen, that's, all that matters and that's the takeaway here. So let me show you I'm going to take black blonde and leek trash bags and make them. Look very very similar to the eaton trench coat for the cherry picker. What I'm doing is actually very simple I'm, just taking a black lawn and leaf trash bag and making a cut down the side and then cutting out holes for arms as you can see here all right now. I just got to add the arms and a few enhancements. And I've literally done that's how easy it is for sleeves I'm, just cutting the sides out of a different trash bag and stapling the open ends together and putting my arm through it, and then stapling the end of the sleeve on to the open hole of the jacket. And it looks a lot like the trench coat, it's, great, I'm, satisfied, all right, you can already see how great this is gonna work in less than 20 minutes of work. I made this look really good on camera, especially when I mix it with the cherry picker on there, the beaded jacket and everything it's going to look great, and you can buy these trash bags for just a few dollars. So the only things that I need to do like, I need to cut it right here, because what I'm gonna do is put a fan blowing underneath, and that will create a look that mj head of the fan blowing the trench coat up. And by cutting lines up here, it's gonna blow all this out I'll be in the beaded jacket on the cherry picker. We've never been done before. And again, the point of this video is to not teach you how to do these specific things. The point is to teach you how to think outside of the box and accomplish anything. You want to accomplish no money. Excuse no inability, excuse there's, always a way to do something you just have to be artistic. So I hope this video helped you guys, and I hope you're excited for me to 2018. I know, I am I just got away from my vita jacket to come in then I'll, still in it. If it's gonna be great and thank you all so much for your support if you have any more ideas for the video, leave them down in the comments with love with love lov.

Oh, what cyrus let's try to remove it. And I didn't call my government funny, because I was like I'm gonna do a little? Yeah, okay. Can you see how it's moving I'll? Come the rubbing alcohol? You can go get at any drugstore, hey, it's, only like three dollars. Yes, it means oh that's. Hot, yeah, I really recommend for whoever dies you're here. A lot to get to get biking over your calls because it comes immediately right off when you want it to come off. Yeah, first. I had all over my arms in my neck cuz. I dyed my hair by myself and um, yeah, the spot I had it. So now it's all gone. Well, maybe a lot of their lesson I'm. Sorry, movie later, oh in stuff for those who knows in your facebook.

Recently,, I had a customer who wanted us to resurface the front of their fireplace. as a contractor,. I feel it's very important to share your experiences likes and dislikes with a customer before you get the job underway. Their selection of a stack stone pattern was a little concerning to me., stacked stone definitely has its place in the building construction market. But my hesitation is this:. Even though it looks great on a lot of buildings,. I personally feel the irregular shapes and more joints can be a little visually distracting for a quality finish, especially when you're going to be observing up close,, such as in the case of resurfacing, a fireplace. I feel stack stone designs of today will be very dated in the next 10 to 20 years. to my delight,. It made an alternative selection of a very beautiful tile panels that will fit together extremely well!. One thing that I like and working with this new material is they can be easily filled dressed or fit it together and seamlessly shaped and mended into other panels!. This provides us the ability to achieve a beautiful color. Balancing of these tile panels. If your existing bricks have been removed, we install a fitted layer of cement board over the existing cinder blocks to provide for a smooth, wellfastened substrate for our new material to be applied to. Our customer wants to install a large, flat screen tv onto this wall,. So we work with their electrician installing electrical outlets and conduit runs under our work. As you can see our customers selected beautiful granite piece for the new hearth. One feature that is well worth noting here,. Not only do these rounded edges. Look great,. They are a lot less likely to chip when they're hit with the edge of a vacuum cleaner. Our new granite hearth is carefully carried into the home;. A bed of thinset adhesive is installed onto both the floor. And the back of the granite., the granite is cautiously laid in position. And the edges are finished off. Our customer has chosen to have us install a minimalsized marble mantel. This was due to the large screen tvs that will be mounted on the wall after our trim work has been completed. Imagine the difference it would make to your home to have your existing fireplace transformed from a data fireplace to a designer showcase. I feel our customer has made a great selection of materials!. Good job.

Hey, guys, I'm will this craftsman and I'm, alberta fisher stay on. Alberta craft we're gonna be learning how to dig up spruce roots for uses cordage. So what we're gonna need we're gonna need a stick? This is about two feet long and two inches thick and something to cut it with and that's. Basically all we need for today. So stay tuned. So first one we need to do we need to make a digging stick. So take the stick that showed and I'm just gonna use alberto fischer's machete to make it quick. And just you have to flatten the end out to be kind of like a shovel. So you get on one side and then and gonna make a chisel chisel shape with that you. Let me get a closeup on them. And it takes sometimes a little while just to get it good, but that's pretty much all you need it's, not that sharp, but it'll work. So that's, how you make a date, the dating stick so stay tuned, hey, guys. So I'm under a spruce tree or a pine tree, doesn't really matter and I'm gonna start about foot and a half away from here and I'm, just gonna kind of kind of a groove in here, and then I'm just gonna take the digging stick and look for any roots under clean normally they're, not very keen. And if you don't find any of this come out a bit farther and he's looking and what we're looking for is smaller, roots don't figure it's like that. So I'm gonna try to find one here and then I'll bring you back and wilderness crafts and then learned this from a certified survival expert dig around eventually find one, but tuck zoom in the camera bit. So you see this, yep, so you guys see this root here, and you kind of just have to follow it. You don't want to break it. So you just run your hand along. And this one goes, it looks like it. Tap starts at this bigger. Oh, no. I found a big root system here. And you can this follow. These are too long here's a give on test. And you can follow along really as far as you can till you get to the tree, and I've heard that they can even get to 8 feet long, and you get a lot of rope out of these, but I'm gonna follow this one along and then I'll cut it off I'll, bring you back and I'll show you how to keep going with the end of your digging stick or just around them, stick I'm gonna kind of a wedge shape. And then you let the carve a notch in it and a triangle, no so carve, a triangle, notch in the tip of the digging stick, which is in a chiseled like thing, which is a like tip, and it should look like that. And then you can take your spirit. This is a better with gloves, but you run it through the groove, and it removes the bark, and you get your hands a bit sticky because of the the resin onto the bark. So you just keep going along until you get all the bar, and it just makes them better to work with. And it kind of makes them more pliable. Just working them through this. And this is an alternate method to this. You can take two sticks like this. You make an x and you use that instead, if you don't have any way to cut a notch, you can use the x of the two sticks and sometimes works. You get to the bare root and then there's this this thick bark. So don't just get the brown stuff off, but there's, a outer bark layer that's like I don't know, but it's pretty thick. And then you can peel this off. And you can use this in itself as cordage. It doesn't almost peel off nicely. But you do get a usable piece to use. You could use reverse twist on the bark. Yeah, that would be good. So then you have this. And now on the wet, alberta fish I'll show you how to split this. So you have two pieces that are a bit thinner. You can use for snares, hey, guys. So now I'm gonna show you how to split it. You have your spruce root like wilderness. Craftsman showed you you got all the bark off it's, a good piece of cordage. But if you want to use it for snares and stuff, you want to split it so it's thinner. So what you're gonna do is you're gonna make sure it's a flat end and then you're gonna use your knife or stone or whatever to go through the middle and you'll have it you'll have a v cut open. So what you're gonna do guys is you're going to pull on both ends very slowly, barely very slowly now, it's. You don't want to rush this. So okay. Now guys you see, I don't know if you can see this very well, you can see how one side is getting thicker on one side is gang thinner. What you're gonna do is you're gonna pull on the thick side, just the six thick side, don't, put any pressure on the thin side, yeah, the thick side. And now it levels itself out it levels. The width, oh okay, guys. So wilderness, craftsman split this into. This is a quarter and it's tapering into the whole, the actual the whole route that he dug out. So this is not as effective as snare wire, but if you have nothing else just use this good substitute a good substitute. So I'm gonna I'm gonna make an overhand knot. Now remember guys you don't want it tight or or really loose or really loose. You want it so it's it's on there, good, and it will slip, but it won't catch and then you're gonna just double that over on itself. So you just basically tie another overhand on top of that, yeah, and it just holds it in place better. So there you go there's your snare, and that works well. And then you just tie the other end tie. The other end to like a roots. This stuff is something with roots or something like this honeysuckle right here. And you just tie it on pretty much. You can only do overhand knots with this it's harder to do other knots. But there you go, you got your you got it attached. And you have like on a game trail like wilderness, craftsman house on his channel check that out guys. He you have it. You have it on the game. They come along and hey, guys that send alberta craft for today. Remember leave no trace coverup wherever you dug up. The spruce roots just sweep it back over, not that hard don't leave this snare set if it's not a survival situation or you're, not actually gonna eat, whatever you keep and it's, not a very good stance, it's, a survival, snare so keep that in mind. And if you do trap, something use all the usable meat and and burn stuff because the skin tendons, you don't, you don't want to waste stuff. So be responsible, leave low impact on the ground.

Hey, guys here we got a five odyssey and today, we're going to show you how we can make these electric sliding doors manual it's, an older van, the customer doesn't want to fix his electric sliding doors. They just gave him problems. So he wants to have me make a manual if it's possible. So I do some checking and I discovered, yes, you can do that. So the first thing we have to do is remove this piece of metal here do that we need to pull the tail light and both tail light. You have to pop these things out. One of them is missing pull those two screws out. And then to get this out, we need to pop this back straight back in a little plastic tire iron bicycle. Iron works pretty good to get in here. Wedge it in here. There we go. So next we have to take this screw out. And then we have to open the door. Okay? The next screw that you have to take out is right in here, right there above that track there's a little screw in there with a philips screwdriver. So you take that out, so the next step close, the door partway like that, and then this just slides forward and comes right off. Let me just open the door, not all the way have a little space back here and pick a jack put a rag or a block of wood, or something monarus protect the bottom of the door and jack it up. So you can just support the door a little bit, and we need to remove the bolts. This hinge here. The next step is to remove these two bolts on this center, hinge and they're, 12 millimeter. Next thing then is to grab this center hinge here and pull it back. It will slide hard because the cables run through here. Now I took the cables off before. So the cables will run through here and back through to here slide this like this, and it will come out the cables will be hooked on here. And so you can turn this. So you can get that cable out of that slot, and then that one will be free here. And then you can turn the other one. So that it lines up to that slot, and you just pull it out, and then the cable will run through here, pull it out through this slot right there and let it hang here. And then when you go and run the door, electrically, the cables will retract into the to the end like this and they'll be out of the way if they don't, you can snip them off with a cutter or something and then they'll be all done. Then all you have to do is put this back in here, like this and bring it up and take your bolts and put your bolts back in where they were. But before you do that it's good idea to check these rollers these things wear out this one is shot, these rollers wear out. This hinge needs to be free here. They sometimes rust up and seize up if they're bad go to honda and get another one. And the cool part about it is the non electric hinge is cheaper than the electric one. The only difference is the non electric. One does not have this piece here on the hinge. The rest is the same. So this car, this is wore out so I'm going to put a new hinge on here and make it work honda's for some reason when the cables are hooked up, it makes the door slide, really hard and it's just hard to use. So if you take them off, you can use them without the electric. Ok, I got a new hinge from honda center, support, hinge, whatever you wanna call it. And I see they don't come with this piece on it. So you have to pull this out of here and tap this out of here, that's going to be rusted in there, but we'll get it out and switch this over to that before we put it back on the van. So I got my new hinge here with new rollers, and everything should make it work. So just slide it in like that run it up to the door. Take your bolts, put them in here. When you tighten them up, try and put the hinge at the same spot as it was closed as you can that will give your height adjustment in the back of the door correctly, it's, not real precise that I've run into problem with when we got that, oh, in there, let the jack down door slides quite freely, not like used to with the cables hooked up. So it works good now. So the next thing you should do is take the fuses out that are hooked up to the door. They have a right and a left. So this is in this band. This is where it is it's marked right in here. And this fuse is the one that's, the power sliding door for the right you pull that out. And then that way you get rid of the power to the door, the next fuse that does the sliding door for the right side is fuse number eight in this fuse box right here, put it back together slide the door forward. Take this piece it will slide on here. You line them up slide it on and slide it back and make sure you get all the places. And then you just put your screws in back here and up here and take taillight line, there's, no point your things up slip it into place put these screws in here and put this cover back on and we're all done.

These are welcomed by gardeners who recognize the important role. They play in our gardens and allotments like other pollinating, insects, such as hover flies and butterflies. They move from flower to flower collecting pollen and nectar. And in so doing help fertilize the flowers they set seed. We also get fruit as well since the 1930s, it's estimated that britain has lost something in the region of 97% of its flower. Rich grassland. This of course, has had a negative impact on our bee numbers. But thankfully, in recent years, restoration projects and the increasing popularity of wildflower mixers, such as the one that you see around me has meant that things are on the up for our bees. And today, I'm going to look at the really simple things that we can all do in our garden to help bees even more. There are lots of species of being britain, the honeybee of which we have just one species is a social bee and typically lives in large colonies. Usually in managed hives and is the only bee to produce honey and beeswax. Most of us will recognize a bumble bee with its large furry body. We have over 20 species of bumble bee in the uk. Lastly, we have solitary bees of which there are about 260 species, these make their own individual nests and could be seen buzzing around holes in walls or in the ground. Of course, one of the most obvious things we can do in gardens is plant nectar. And pollen rich flowers there's, a whole range to choose from of bee friendly flowers on the rhs perfect for pollinator lists. If you're not sure then really simple thing to look out for is to choose flowers that are single like this rose. We've got here. This is going to have more accessible pollen and nectar than heavy double forms. And if space is a bit tight, my three favorite bee plants have got to be phacelia, tenacity folia, which is really easy to grow annual cap mint or no peter grow that in any border and lavender fantastic in a pot. Another way to help is to avoid disturbing natural nest sites such as the base of hedges or long grass, which is where bumblebees prefer to nest don't be too worried. If you've got a few bare patches in your lawn, these are a good thing for our ground nesting solitary bees, look out for their telltale signs, tiny little holes little volcanoes of soil you're going to have one of them at work there for some of our area nesting solitary bees and such as mason bee, put up a bee hotel. Once such as this are available from garden centers are online, or you can make your own really cheaply from a log of wood and a drill and some different size drill. Bits, alternatively get an all tin can or bottle and just pack it with drinking straws that two will work really well for our bumblebees. They seem to prefer natural nest sites, but the latest species to the uk. Something called the tree bumble bee will readily take up residence in a bird box. If you've got a lawn or grass area, why not leave it a little bit longer between cuts that way if allo be friendly plants like clover and knapweed to flower think carefully about whether you need to use pesticides. And if you do spray avoid spraying open flowers, which will put our bees, another pollinating insects at risk. You could even become a beekeeper. This is a hobby that more and more people are taking up. And you don't have to live in a rural area urban beekeeping is really on the rise. So wherever you live and whatever the size of your garden, the simple ways you can help our british bees. So spare them a thought next time, you're choosing plants for your garden and transform your patch into a bee haven.

So welcome back let's, talk about the real time, clock modules that we were looking at last time, and we have two and offered the ds1308 of that in their toolbox somewhere. But a newer one, the ds3231 is the moment we concentrate on today. It has several advantages so we're going to build this today to at least retrieve the date and time from this chip into a pod. We know, you know, flown here and display on the monitor. So what do we need? Well, I've mentioned before that the communication between this board. And this chip is going to be by a twoway cable now, twoway cable plus two for the power. So if we connect the two serial, I squared c pins in there, and we can bring that in nice and close. So we can see what we're doing. So then we have the the sel and the sdm sda, which is serial data and serial clock pins. And then we will need a five volt and a ground, which is down here. Now, the colors of the of these cables were using here, just doesn't matter that much, I know that I've had comments before they all sacrilege, you should be using red for the positive and black for ground. But well, if the manufacturers of these dupont cables were to come up with a black red, black red black red version, but all we bind them by the bucketload that they don't. So we just pick random colors so let's, connect these four wires to the correct ones here, which is ground on the right, then the 5 volts, then the zero data, then the serial clock. Alright, let's do that first right. So there we are with the wires connected up. And obviously nothing is happening at the moment. Because if you can see this little led then here, it's blinking twice, which is the standard sort of double blink program that I normally upload just to make sure that the padrino board itself is working so mmm. Now we need to actually run the code. What we'll do is go to the computer and see what happens. So here we are on the computer. Now then with the code that we're about to upload now, remember that when you first four up arduino with a basic nothing in it sketch as the programs are called, it looks a bit like this. So let's just make this a little bit bigger. So we can see what we're doing. So this is a sketch that has absolutely nothing in it whatsoever. Probably do this nothing would happen on the arduino. The two main sections. We've got though is a setup that runs once as the arduino is switched on. And then we have a loop where everything else happens. So those are the two sections that they give you and everything else you have to put in by yourself so let's, go back to the the main bear code here. Now, if we conveniently ignore all this bit at the top, we want to get too sidetracked by that. We can see here a set up. And what we're saying is, why begin that means I want the I squared c bus initialized place. So I go and do your stuff and don't bother me with the details. We're also setting up serial communications. Now, this isn't the same serial communications as the r squared c. This is the serial back to the monitor back to your windows or mac. And you can see the results the output from this program via this button. Here, which says serial monitor, if we click that you can see there's nothing on it at the moment, but there will be if we write back to the serial port. So the set up is going to do something here in a minute and the loop, which what runs several thousand times a second potentially is are going to say display the time and then wait for a second. So first of all let's think about what we're going to do here in the setup initially we should set the time of the ds3231 or 1307. This program works equally well, with both of those by the way, but we're just going to blank this out as the comment here goes that only do this one. So if you leave this line here, uncommented, then every time the arduino is reset. It will run this bit of code and set the date back and the time to whatever it is you've specified here, which isn't the object call of a taller force. So we'll do that in just a second now what's. This display time routine here. So the read ds3231 time routine, which is defined here, we're saying, begin the transmission to the ds3231 address, which was defined at the top of our program. Here, we're saying, our ds3231 can be found at address hexadecimal, 0 x 68, which is a bit like saying on your street. You can be found at house. Number 43 43 and post the house number 43 won't go to 38 or 122. So this is how we communicate down the I squared c protocol. We say what I do start communicating. I want to begin at register address 0 and looking at the register here, which we looked at previously. We can see that address 0 starts here with the seconds and goes all the way up to minutes hours days done day to month and year. And then we say, that's, fine that's, the end of that transmission. And now we say now would like please communicating with on the I squared c bus, and that address hexadecimal 68 odd like 7, bytes of data, please. And what that does it reads these 7 bytes so 1 being 0 2, being 1 all the way up doesn't quite 6, which is the year. So we've read seconds minutes hours day. A week date that's the end of the month, the month itself and the year by executing this. So having retrieve the values by executing this command and this code here, we're now, going to send it back out over the serial port, that's connected to your pc and saying, right now, print out the hour. The minute second day of month month here and so on. And this all comes back to your serial port, which you can see by clicking this button here. So let's see if something happens, and we do upload it. This is that we compile, or if it goes it's starting to upload uploading done. And our serial ports brings into life and it's saying that the time is this, the date the day of the week. So on the 14th of november, 2016, it's a tuesday, and it is, but not because the ds3231 worked out is because we told it initially in the setup. And if you remember, we said that the setup routine would only run once. And here it is now is compton out here to go. How did that work? Well, of course, I've used this d. S, 32 131 before and it's remembered what was on there, if we uncomment this line and reupload we'll, see what happens then to the serial? This is saying 1234, oh 1. Ah, now look is reset itself because we've uploaded this date and time again, which is why we don't want to keep doing that. Every time very odd. We know, resets, if I press the reset button now on the arduino let's, see, what happens to this date and time, especially the seconds press, the reset and it's reset back to the zero because it's executed this command again. So we need to put the comment back in there to prevent that happening in the future. So we'll comment that out and send that back up to the arduino there. It goes compiling. And now, if you look at the monitor here, when it reset itself after uploading is carried on counting from where it left off, if I press the reset button. Now it stopped is resetting and it's continued it's time. If I unplug, the arduino entirely there's, a little window sound to say, it stopped and plug it back in again, which effectively resets the arduino. We can then look at the serial port again on here. And there it goes so that's, how you communicate with the ds3231 or 1307. If you happen to have on simplicity itself for wires, not a lot to it. So just to bring this bit the video to a close. Now, then we've seen that by connecting the two pins here, the scl, which is the serial clock and the sda, which is the serial data to the equivalent pins on the ds3231 and the d. S, 1307 is identical in this respect, right? So there you can see the pins the bottom one into the ground, which is 0 vcc, which is plus 5. S, da and sc l, which are the same pin names is what the arduino board gives it in the future. Video, we talked about the top two pins, the square wave and 32k, but it's, not important for this initial video. So just by four wires, then a single real time, clock and arduino, uno clone or your nano on a development board as per my previous projects problem now over here. So here we have the the nano on the develop board exactly the same electronically. You can start doing real things with a realtime clock, setting it getting data and so forth. I'll post, a couple of links on the bottom of this video with some very simple sample code before we think about how we're going to set the date and time in the future. For example, what happens when the clocks go back? And we have daylight saving. How are you going to reset your realtime clock that might be down the bottom of your garden in the shed or in a beehive, or something who knows where these things end up? And you certainly don't want to have to be dragging your laptop down there, just just the clocks have gone back so we'll think about how we can set that without having to go through all that paraphernalia in the meantime, though I hope you found it interesting great stuff. Thanks for watching. I hope you're finding these videos useful and interesting, remember, you can leave comments comments, hello and also click that little button that says, subscribe, ok, thanks for.

Hi I'm, patti, moreno, the garden girl. And this year my container garden is doing so well, got my herbs planted and also a variety of vegetables, but there's just something missing. And I know exactly what it is and that's fruit. Did you know that you can grow fruit trees in containers? Well, you can, and I've been doing it for years this year, I'm going to jazz it up a little bit. And I am gonna grow some cherry trees. I think so cherry trees with the red cherries. And the green leaves up against my gray wall. Here is going to look beautiful. I just placed an order at stark brothers, and they just arrived in their bare root trees. Now, bare root trees need to be planted differently from trees that are already potted that you are transferring into a larger container. What you have to do first is you have to soak the roots in water for about one to two hours. And you want to make sure that you don't exceed 24 hours, because that can damage the tree. So I'm gonna get this water filling up here in this tub and I'm going to soak these. And while I soak them I'm going to get that container, ready for planting got my cherry trees soaking here in the mean time I have filled my container here, it's a 30 gallon container with organic soil, of course, and also some organic fertilizer. Now, can you tell what this container is it's actually a garbage can it's, not just for garbage anymore. It's gonna be for growing some scrumptious cherry trees. Speaking of cherry trees. I got two different varieties. You want to make sure that you have two different varieties of fruit trees when you're going to be planting them in your garden, because they need to cross pollinate planting the white gold cherry right now. And I also have a black gold cherry that I'm gonna be planting in this area as well. It's gonna take a while you do have to be patient. When you get fruit trees, it's gonna take at least two to four years for even some varieties to start fruiting we're gonna have beautiful flowers, though in the springtime we're also going to have great foliage it's, not going to grow taller than eight to ten feet, but I'm going to keep it pruned and pretty low. And I am gonna pop it into my container. I don't want the top to be at the top of the container. I want it to be about two inches below the rim. Now, I'm just scooping some soil around the roots. I've got my cherry tree it's in its container. And of course, I have to water it going to do a really deep watering. I want to make sure that I give this tree of good start I'm, patti, moreno, the garden. Thanks for watching.

A new branch of medicine, the humble tree provider of fruit shade. And now bones scientists of the is tech research lab in central italy and discovered a way of transforming ordinary wood into this substance almost identical to human bone after testing several tree types. They found rotten wood, just like you have in furniture as the best properties for the process process. The rotter is heated several times and put under intense pressure, it's also exposed various chemical changes, including having calcium and phosphate. Added the end result is a strong durable substance that can be attached to real bones. The main advantages back to the frontier is not after fissile is very similar to natural burn it's settled to support the loading of the body, and it doesn't need to be taken out. And at the end, we will burn the substituting venom glands under a microscope that would bones are very similar to a crosssection of human or animal bone holes, allow blood nerves and other particles to migrate from the real bone to this new substance. The whole process of transforming the wood into this substitute bone takes about 10 days and who would benefit. Well, anybody who needs a substitute bone ranging from people who have accidents to cancer patients, whose disease destroys their bones? The potential service. Substitute bone is limitless. Good bones have only been implanted into sheep who had arthritis until now major loadbearing bones, destroyed by disease or accident would have been mended using metal rods or ceramic plates, which can need replacing xrays show that the sheep's real bones are actually fusing with the wood based material. Surgeons who carried out the procedure say, eventually, you won't be able to see the join. The difference is that this work live and very stable from the point of view of mechanics, but it's reabsorbable. And at the end, you can ever more close to the natural bond formed implanting humans with the new material is about five years away. But scientists here are convinced this could transform orthopedic surgery everywhere, bones from trees, where medicine has become rooted in nature.

Okay, so welcome back to another episode on my channel here and we're going to do something different as you can see, we have advice, oh, um. So we're, not really to talk directly about the car or touch the car we're good at such a component of the car. So here we have. These are the omp injectors. So I'll, metering pump, whatever you want to call it for a rotary engine, the fft in particular. So my omp lines, which are meant to be like a teflon plastic. But eventually over time, they basically become glass became brittle, and it cracked so we're going to be replacing the lines on the fd. And whilst I was in there, I noticed that these things are just about as gnarly as you can get. I mean, there's a lot of corrosion. This was a lot too bad. This one's on the rear housing and was probably the worst of there, too and it's. I've gone in there with vacuum cleaner and cleaned it all out. But this I thought it was easier to show you how to clean this up outside of the car. So that's, what we're going to do we're going to teach you today, how to shine up random bits on your engine? So everything that you saw on the fd was done in the same technique as what I'm going to do here. So where there's a few tools you'll need? None of it is expensive. In fact, the most expensive, it would be your drill, depending what drill you want to use in this particular instance, I'm actually gonna use a corded drill, just because that higher rpm. And I don't worry about why some recording batteries dying on me. So and what we're going to do is first of all we're going to get injected me and we're going to protect the threads. We don't want to hurt the threads, not that these things are particularly hard to get hold of for aftermarket, but it's always a good good thing to protect them if they're actually quite serviceable. So I'm gonna do is I'm going to put that in the vise. And I want a little bit expose down there just to get a little bit and all you're gonna do just use your finger to nip up the threads. We just want it secure. We don't want you to bite it down. We don't stop warp in any metal. We just move make sure that that can't go anywhere. So what we're going to use is going to use a drill and we're going to use a wire wheel. And this one's great for 4500 rpm. Most of them are and very very easy to work with. The only thing that you find with these is that you can see the splines do splay over time, and they can come out, especially when you're working with angles and holes and stuff like that so absolutely vital. And when you doing stuff like this, it is, you must wear your safety. Gloves are also a good idea. My hands like don't feel anything anymore. I've been pierced and punctured that many times by wire lock and things like that. Over the years, I no longer have pretty much any feeling in these things anymore. So you just randomly bleed and anyway, but gloves good idea and glasses, also extremely good idea, working with anything metal high speed and filing or grinding. So we'll get those on hey, girls, something I've never done before health and safety whilst at the workplace doing this sort of stuff, but as always guys, I mean, I've take it as read. I assume that whenever anybody's doing anything especially stuff. They've seen in my video, please take all the correct safety. Precaution, don't, hurt yourself for the sake of something stupid on a car. So here we go all I'm going to do is and just basically try and keep an even movement. You don't kind of want to stop. I've seen with aluminum way you can burn it and start actually melting the aluminum. He gets that hot. So just kind of want to move it around a little bit. So I give it a quick inspection, make sure everything's good. And as you can see while we've got due to the corrosion, we've got what they call pitting. So this occurs when the actual corrosion is eating through the metal. So the definition of corrosion is the return of a metal to its natural state. So basically this one's to go back to rock and and that's what's happening here. So little chunks of it are coming off. Now we've polished it up, and we've got it out over there. But of course, it leaves what's been eaten behind, which is dissipating what you're looking for when you do this, if you're looking for these nice smooth, polished surfaces like this. Now that you do get very very hot when you do this by the way cause of friction. So just make sure that you like I said, you do have it wrapped up. So when you're actually done, you can see there, look, you can actually get this stuff like a mirror so that's stainless. And you literally can make it like a mirror. If you take your time when you do it, right so, that's, it guys simple as that. I mean, what did that take me what two minutes and got rid of all the corrosion and away we go now actually just a good now actually thinking about it. This sits in aluminum, and this is stainless steel. So if ever you bored, one night, you troubling to get to sleep look up dissimilar metal, corrosion it's, basically where one metal is more resistant to corrosion than another. And what happens is when you have one metal, it's, really tough to corrosion like aluminum aluminum caroli oxidizes. And then you've got this here. The softer metal actually becomes the sacrificial piece. So what happens is all the corrosion goes to the weaker metal, and you can literally dissolve metal with metal through this process. So where they've put stainless steel in aluminum, you kind of off to a bad start. You've got some copper in the mix there for the crush washers as well. So between these three elements, you've actually got a lot of diff similar metals. So it's understandable for this to get corroded, but that's. It guys like I said if ever you're bored, and you need something to put you to sleep read about it, but that's how we polish it up and make it look all shiny and new take care guys. As always if you've got any questions feel free to ask by now.

Hey, guys, how's, it goin laura with garden answer it's time for the september garden tour. And we skipped last month's. So there was no august garden tour because we were just so busy. And it was so hot like the whole month of august was like high 90s, low 100's. And we were gone at the grand garden show. And I was prepping for that. So we skipped august. So there are a few different things in here. But I think this year I were kind of calling the year of chaos, that's that's, kind of how I like to think of it. Because this year has been a year of taking things out getting things right like getting the electriss, electrical lines, buried getting water lines fixed taking out dead and or dying plants that were diseased. So we've been doing a ton of that. And I feel like next year, we're gonna really get to go to town with actual like developing flower beds and really intensely planting things. And we've been doing some intense planting, especially with annuals, but it just it. I can't, wait. I can't, wait for next year. I've got so many ideas in my brain that I want to put into action. But tonight I wanted to start in the versailles garden, because we have done a few things in here. You might remember seeing these fall containers come together. And they've been looking like this for a few few weeks. Two weeks, I don't know and they're doing really really well up here, it's been like in the 70s. And then tomorrow it's supposed to go down to the 60s and stay in the 60s, which is my preferred temperature range range. I love the 60s, it's awesome. And then right here this alyssum, I just I wanted to show you guys this because it has gone to town like it is taking over it's about time for me to cut the russian stage back. But I've been noticing that the honeybees are still feeding off of it a little bit. So I'll, probably give it a little bit more time, but it's looking a little bit past its prime. This is a mix of white knight and snow. Princess alyssum. I used kind of, I didn't have enough of one variety to make the whole way around. So I kind of did every couple and changed, but they really filled in and look quite similar to each other. But I mean, they're out competing, the supertunia bordeaux. Poor little boxwoods are just they're holding their own here. I haven't really done anything to like train them around the boxwoods. But soon we'll be taking these out, probably after a few hard frost because alyssum super super tough, and then the bulbs are still under there that I planted those cafe know our tulips, those will come up next spring. Anyway, this area has just been a really fun one to watch. And then right here to my left, we had planted supertunia bordeaux and supertunia limoncello in the corners. And we did take those out. This was a learning curve area for me because this area is watered by our grass sprinklers. And this area gets a lot more water than I thought it did so the supertunias didn't like they did okay, and they had color and flowers on it, but they didn't just they didn't do really really really well. So this is gonna be something that I'm gonna try something new in next summer either that, or I got to figure out something different for watering. But this grass section is kind of awkward to water. So I don't know how exactly we're gonna if we were gonna change it how we would do that. But anyway, so we pulled out the supertunias and put pansies in. I can't, wait for them to grow on a little bit, because when you've got a huge mass of supertunias, and then you put in these little baby pansies, it looks kind of sad, but I think it's pretty just to have some color. So I've got some this is called pure yellow pansy. And then the other corners it's called copperfield. So it's kind of just really pretty fall colors. I typically don't mass plant fall plants. This was kind of a splurge for me. I just figured that I don't know what next year is gonna be like with expecting a baby, and you know who knows so I thought, you know, this fall I'm, gonna do it I'm gonna pick a couple areas I'm going to just go to town with fall plants and just have some fun. So anyway, really excited to see how this area grows on. So the next thing I wanted to show you is to my right. In fact, I just posted a picture of instagram on instagram of these this morning. The crescent true drop self. Watering containers have done amazing over here. This year. This was an experiment because I wasn't sure how the self watering would do with our hundred plus degree summers and they've done. So so, well, you can tell though when you go down this way way, those two on the end don't get as much sun during the day as all the rest of them. So they don't have quite as much color so that's something that you know, you learn and next year we can do something a little different, but they're just they're still looking beautiful. I mean, we're at the end of september september 29th today, and they still are this full of color, and you know, I'm kind of getting ready to have pink's be done. You know, that's something I always, I always forget about when I plant these things, I always forget, how long they look like this and how they just kind of keep going looking this great through the fall. But my my urge is to tear them out and put fall plants in. But with this amount of planters, I think I'm just going to every year, whatever I put in for a summer is probably what's going to stay in them. So something I'm gonna have to consider because that's a huge cost to have to swap them out for a season. So I'm really thrilled with how they've been doing. And as far as watering went this summer, when it was a hundred plus degrees, I was checking on them every five to seven days, probably filling their reservoirs on average once a week, that's it. Once a week I had to be out here watering. Instead of every single day, like I had to water. My other containers and the other thing is is when the temperature isn't is hot. So in the first part of summer, and then now I'm getting away with going a lot longer like when I very first planted these in may, I think it was 2020. Some days, I can't, remember upper 20s between when we planted and filled the reservoirs. And when I had to fill them again, so that's, amazing. So the next area isn't in front of the house let's go up there. Oh first, I got to point out so we're just buttoning up a lot of projects. And I know we've showed you the boxwoods, but I'm, just so thrilled with how they look and how they've been doing. We haven't lost a single one. In fact, I don't think any of them have even struggled since we've planted them. So I've been just enjoying having them look fresh and new all the way on that side as well. We rid redid the lines over there to where the arches on each side match each other perfectly. So if erin were to put his drone up and look down, it would look balanced which it didn't before and for a formal garden, I think that's kind of important all right. We've got some pretty late fall or late summer. I guess it's not summer. Early fall, color, hardy, geraniums in here. I think this is an angel face. Rose was here when we moved in there's, some santeria and salvia that still has a little color, and I can't bring myself to cut him back yet, it's kind of a sweet time of year. So this was the other area. I chose to mass plant with fall annuals. And I love it. I love this. I wasn't sure what I was going to think of it when I started laying out all the ornamental cabbages, but I think it looks so like tidy there's something about that that just does it for me. So I use I can't, remember, I think this is called white pigeon pigeon, white, ornamental cabbage. And then the pansies that are surrounding them are called tapestry mix so it's, just a really pretty mix of kind of like smoky, pink's, fallish, pinks, yellows oranges. I think they're just real pretty. And I think they'll be great once they start growing on and filling this space a little bit. But I just love this, an ornamental cabbage, if you've ever planted them in a pot or in the ground, they can take a lot of cold. In fact, they are gorgeous when they've got frost on them. So I'm, really looking forward to seeing how these look also. This was a trial container right here. And erin hooked these up on drip, not many of our containers are on drip. In fact, he actually volunteered to this is his section to water. So wherever erin goes and waters, he like improves the situation. So I need to like to see if he'll rotate around the garden and take some of my spots, because I never think to, you know, if I take just a little time and hook them up onto drip it's so much easier. So these are supertunia loveydovey, which will be in garden centers next spring. And I put them with károly petit paint kagera, which still have some blooms on them. And oh, my goodness, I just love this mix there's, creeping, jenny right below for a dramatic drape. But I just these are really nice. And I've got corn stalks up there and another arrangement which we will put a video up about here soon. But I just can't bring myself to pull these out yet, even though it totally doesn't match the pink's with the fall decor. They just look too, pretty and I'm just going going leave them until they don't look like this anymore. Okay, moving on. So this is the side yard, there's, not much going on here. Because this is one of our projects for next year. This is an area actually erin. And I went through, we have prioritized areas in our garden that we want to tackle next year. And we've cut it. We each made a list, and we kind of compared what we want to do. This is a big one, because we had a bunch of stuff pulled out. In fact, I am just I'm dealing with this viola thug. This is a thug in the garden, they're, beautiful and they're, a great ground cover. But boy, when you plant him, you just got to make sure you've got space for them, or that you don't mind them running because they just go everywhere so I'm trying to rogue those things out. But next year we plan on taking this skinny sidewalk out, because I want something that will handle my garden cart, which I think my garden carts, 30 inches wide. So maybe like three foot standard sidewalks around here would be nice so we're, thinking, maybe pavers or flagstone we're, not sure yet, but we're going to probably be taking out most of the grass here, just because we don't want way to cut down a little bit on irrigation. This is a really hot side of the house right here. So we'll pull the grass out and we'll probably put in I'm, not sure yet, what I'm going to put in for lining, the driveway, maybe a hedge of lavender things that don't take quite as much water and can take the full sun and we'll just be developing this area. I've just pretty much left. It alone this year because there's so much so many other things going on. And that brings me to the rose garden area. Let's go look at that. Oh, and this is where they trenched. So right here when they did our electrical lines, they come from the house right to my left, and they trench. They took the sidewalk out right here. They trench this way. And then they had to trench this way. I mean, these were like what 48 inch trenches. I think so they were deep. I've been watching the juniper junipers doing fine. I was worried about cutting through a bunch of roots, but that's, why the grass is all messed up, right there? Okay, so this area right here, starting in front of me. This is one of my favorite areas because this right here has been a stunner all summer long. We've got supertunia white right there backed by the maroon coleus maroon coleus has taken a pretty much full sun in the morning, it's protected. But it gets full sun in the afternoon. And this is what it looks like. I mean, when you have hundred plus degree summers, and it can take full sun. That is a tough coleus, right? There think I'm gonna repeat this next year because it's just such a striking look. And then this whole area right here. I planted these two containers on the right before the fourth of july, they were all red, white and blue. So you guys can be proud of me that I actually kept flowers that are bright fireengine red, which is not typically something I do, but they did really well. I mean, this they're starting to peter a little bit because some of our nighttime temps have already been down in the 30s. So they're kind of starting to wane, but they're still green and there's still some color. So anyway, this area here I planted some sweet, caroline raven potato, vines along this wall wall. I haven't trimmed them one time not once, and they've just done wonderfully. I really like the weight that it brought to this area. I would like to develop a little more back in here. I haven't done much since we moved in this was kind of how it was. I did plant a bunch of labella pop tulips in here, there's a hundred of them. I have 200 more tulip bulbs, the same variety on their way to me right now and I'm just going to just deck this area out. So I have 300 labella park tulips in this spot it's gonna be awesome. So then here we have the privet which we had pulled out, and we put in some boxwood and still have yet to mulch in this area. Something I want to do this fall. But this maple tree right here. It drops tons of these tons of these everywhere. So I am waiting until that tree is done. And I've got this area cleaned up before we put any fresh mulch down. And then the whole rose garden area, it really needs some maintenance right now. So don't look too close. But this whole area is gonna change next year. Some of the roses will keep some of them. We won't there's a lot of diseased roses in this spot a lot of them that are really really irondeficient, which I could fix, but they're, not colors that I prefer. So we are actually thinking, we might change the direction of the driveway here like the way we come in. We might create a different opening right in here and kind of get rid of a lot of this stuff make a more wide walkway, because in the you know when you're walking to the house, this is our path. You've got a big arm load of groceries and you're snagged by rose thorns as you go by. And I we're just kind of sick of sick of that. We want them something that's whiter something that's a little bit easier to move around in. And I love roses they're, one of my favorites, but I would love to get rid of some of these that like, oh, I don't know, I mean, they're all kind of pretty in their own way. But um, I'd like to get rid of some of them that I don't care for a huge amount and put david austin's in in this spot, because the roses do get quite a bit of sun in here. We need to put more shade trees in because this area is very hot in the summertime. So these containers right here. These have been amazing. This is a pennisetum called vertigo. I think I'm, pretty sure and doesn't that look like fallish. I planted these earlier in the summer with supertunia, burma, your bermuda beach, and then a couple other super belles and things. I just pulled those out and popped in some ornamental cabbage and some little violas and they're just transitioned beautifully from summer to fall taking the pinks out getting something in a little bit more seasonal. These have been wonderful. And then we wanted to show you the vegetable garden area, which just got buttoned up this morning. So, as of 8 a. this morning, there was still landscape fabric showing there was no gravel in here. And there was no soil in these beds. This has been quite the project this year. Number one, getting this spot ready because there were so many different people that needed to be involved in. You know, we needed to get permission to move some of the things we needed to get trees out. And just, you know, I mean, those of you who have followed us know, kind of some of the things that we've gone through to get this spot ready and I'm so thrilled because I have time to put garlic in. And that was my goal, because you know, it's not finished yet. I have yet to get something for this center. I had it designed this way to where there was a definite center in here. I could put something like a really beautiful pot or a small fountain, something very decorative. And then next spring, we would love to come in with like three feet out from here, put some sort of picket or some sort of fencing in here with an arbor right in this opening and arbors on each end. So that it very it defines this space because right now it just runs right into our driveway, which is fine for now I'm just so thankful that's this done and the soil, let me talk to you about that. So the soil we put in here, you get the we put a nice layer of compost down, just to make the soil. Look, really pretty. But this right here is actually a specific blend that a company in the boise, idaho area blends up it's, a mix of fish. I might not get this right, but I think it's. Fifty six percent premium topsoil, 10 percent composted manure. And what does that leave 34 percent 34 percent forest compost? I didn't know, it's a really really wonderful blend of soil. We went through. I did so much research research to figure out what kind of soil I wanted in here. And then I thought about all the ingredients I would have to buy and mix myself, and I just so I found this company that does mixes pre done in bulk, and we had some of that brought in and filled the beds with it. So I think it should do everything should do really well in here. And we did change the beds out. You might have noticed that earlier this summer. We set up the beds at gardeners supply sent over which were wonderful beds. In fact, we did the same shape that we were going to do before. But the thing is once we got them all out, I realized that they were a little bit and it's totally my fault. Because I I was the one who said, which ones I wanted, but they were a little short. They didn't look the rightscale. And we thought with all the work we had done to get this spot ready. We really wanted something that was proper that looked right. So we had, hey guy, local guy, who's amazing. He came in and built us these redwood beds, two by twelves here, with very clean, looking corners, very uniform. And we are utilizing the bed somewhere else, the ones from gardner supply, which I'll show you in a minute. The last thing about this area, we had individual water, faucets run to each spot right here. So they're all in the same zone. But we thought you know, what since we have to rip up the ground and run new lines anyway, to bring it to this area. We may as well, put individual faucets and individual beds that way I can control exactly what water is running where so I could have the zone running. I could have, you know, four beds running and the other ones all shut off. If I don't have anything in them. So I don't waste water, or if I have a crop that doesn't want as much water as another crop, I can adjust, you know, and I think that that will be really really nice, but we had brass risers and brass tops here. So they kind of blend it in a little bit. So I'm, just really thankful for this spot like this is kind of this is like the treat of the year, I'm so excited to have it. So now let me show you where the other beds ended up. So this is actually very exciting. So these are the 3 by 6 beds that we had, and we had 4 of them. So I decided to stack them up back here. So I could have a really nice high raised bed that would just fit snug in this corner and be perfect. And then these are the 3 by fours right here. So they just worked out beautifully. I did actually I can't say, I did it aaron? Did it? I don't know if I can get one of these up, but see these little little caps right here, if you were to take one out out aaron, ran rebar stakes through each corner to about here. And then we slid the last bed on. So each the rebar sticks were put in. And then we slid the beds down one on top of the the other. And then we left a little space. So we could get this little end cap down that kind of stabilized it. We leveled everything up. And then I went in, I think you could probably see right here. I went in with pieces of wood here. And I screwed in pieces like every so often just for extra stability, because I didn't, well, I knew it was gonna be a ton of weight inside these beds. And I wanted just some extra security there. And then I did line them all with landscape fabric. So you can see here. I just lined them. I stapled some lansky fabric right to the inside, just because I figured since there are seams here. I didn't want any soil leaking out. And then I also thought that it might protect the wood. It is cedar. There are cedar beds, so they will hold up to moisture and soil and stuff like that. But I thought, you know, extra extra protection for the wood is never a bad thing while they're empty, I'm, just gonna line them all and we're good to go. And there is soil from top to bottom here, which is probably unnecessary, but we had a lot of soil brought in. In fact, we had extra on accident. I don't think our math mystery. So we just went ahead and filled them all the way, but I'm so excited about this. Our new neighbors are developing right here. So, awesome, I'm so excited about our new neighbors right here. They are just they're wonderful people. I went to school with one of their daughters and it's just I'm really excited about that and there's just a couple more areas. I wanted to show you before we're done with the tour. So one thing I forgot to mention about these raised beds, it can be a hard thing to figure out how much soil that you need. There is a soil calculator. A raised bed soil calculator on a gardeners supply website, we'll link, it down below. I just had my measurements wrong. How come we had extra soil, but it does a great job. You just plug in how many inches or feet. Your beds are and how deep they are. And it just figures out how many cubic yards of soil you need. So it does all the work for you. You don't have to mess with any formulas or anything. So this spot right here is we've started to kind of work on you probably remember this spot here, which I'm actually gonna be adding more plants to here. Soon I got some more wild, rose hookah rez. I want to beef up a little bit I'm, gonna move a couple of the veronica's around. And I realized that one of my head ranges was not getting drip like I thought it was, I think it's. Okay, it looks sad back there, but I think it's, fine there still life in all the branches, and it is fall. Right? Right? So things leaves this time of year, it's, normal, right so will g be doing a little work here. We had. You might remember a leyland cypress arch, right here, which looked okay from, you know, back here, you're standing back here, looking at it. It looked okay, but you got anywhere close to it. And it was dead in the inside. There was about this much of green on the outside of the whole thing. So it really just needed to come out the pathway was made of broken up concrete sidewalk, which is a great way to utilize old concrete sidewalk. But it wasn't like it led right into one of the leyland cypresses. It didn't go through the archway. And it was just. I want something a little bit different. So we'll be taking out some of these headers here and creating a nice walkway through here right to that arch and really developing this space. Next year. I did plant this sargent crabapple this year, how beautiful it is I'm just loving it. And my honeybees are doing great. I just lifted the lid it's getting later so there's not much activity, but they were buzzing around earlier. So everything is just doing great in this area. We've got silver lace vine right back here. This is the roof of our root cellar, kind of a root cellar. You get to it from our potting shed so there's, a big mound where the roof is of soil and that's silver lace mine, just covers it. It does a really good job. It doesn't smell the best, but the pollinators love it. So I might leave it for now. And the last one I wanted to talk about was our backyard. We call it our formal garden, which doesn't, I don't know, we call a lot of our gardens that. But I haven't really showed if this garden much or talked about it much. So I just wanted to touch on it and tell you our plans. We did show you this though these are the king tut's right here. Look at these look at how tall these grasses are. This is insane. When we very first planted him, they were like this tall, and they've just done so good in this spot. There are two lines of drip that run through this area. And during the summer, they were getting an hour of water every single day. I think that's, why the tuts have done. So so well, supertunia bubblegum did really well for a long time. And I think it's just coming to a point where it's like, okay, uncle like you guys gave me way too much water. So the rest of this garden, I have not done much with at all. In fact, have I done anything in here last year. We planted these urns this year. I didn't because we need to figure out water. I was hauling watering cans to him every day, and I didn't want to do that this year and yeah, so let me tell you what I want to do with this garden. Contrary to what aaron wants to do. I want to change this garden into a pasture really bad. I grew up on a farm and it's like I don't know, sometimes it surfaces and like I want that lifestyle back like I want to have a horse back here or chickens, or whatever, you know, just animals. I was around animals, my whole life. We really miss dexter out here, really bad. It's been weird. The last few weeks, not having him thought like he'd be following us around right now. So it's a huge bummer that he's gone. We've talked about getting another kitty soon and we'll probably will before fall is over I'm. Sure we just love having animals around. We've talked about getting a dog, but I would love to get like some farm animals and have them back here. I think this area is big enough for if you just kind of blew out all of this moved all of the statuary, the urns and the fountains somewhere else in the yard. I mean cuz, we certainly have a ton of planting space elsewhere. But I think aaron would rather plant this area up. So we'll we'll, see who wins that argument he probably will planting it up is probably a better plan than having animals a little less maintenance. So we might if we did a planting back here, we would cut pieces of grass out and kind of create a network of really neat flowerbeds back here and just almost use this as a trial ground because it's kind of removed from the rest of our garden. You can see that the driveway kind of breaks it up. You know, puts back in it own little area back here. And in fact, that's why I didn't another reason why I didn't plant these urns or turn the fountain on all year, we're, not back here, there's, no reason for us to come back here because there's nowhere to sit there's, nothing really to do except for to maintain the garden and the grass. So I'd like to make this area a spot where we want to come somehow whether that's a testing ground for different plants, where we just plant up a bunch of different stuff, just to see how it does. So we can, you know share it with you guys. So you guys can get some ideas for your garden or animals. We'll see what happens so that's it for the september garden. are you guys? There are other sections of yard, but we haven't done anything brandnew in them that you guys haven't seen up to this point. So I just wanted to touch on the areas that we either got completed, or that we haven't really talked about that much up to this point. So I hope you enjoyed seeing it next month should be even more different. We should have, you know, defoliated trees and more color, maybe some fall color out here. It should be very very pretty so anyway. Thank you guys so much for watching this video, and we will see you in the next one bye.

Hi everyone, this is reselling with amy and I'm. Amy, hi, if you haven't watched before then this is my new channel. I was formerly on youtube under and melee reseller. I did have a couple of problems without accounts. I decided to close it down. We start fresh and yeah, put regular content, um, which I'm excited to share with you all and just a bit of information I'm, a reseller. And I do apologize if you've heard this before from a previous channel. But I just thought I'd mention it. Um, I've been reselling now since I was really young, I used, I started off doing market stalls. And I've had my own shop and now I'm just online, um on ebay. Mainly I mainly sell clothing, but I do sell other things. It depends if I see anything worth value, basically I could keep up and sell it. So yeah, but my sort of speciality is causing really, um, ladies, clothing, men, like I do sometimes pick up its men's, not so much. I do apologise for my hat on it. Absolutely freezing up here. My office is on the top floor. I can actually see my breath as I'm speaking it's, a cold and there's been a bit of problem with the heating system today, but I'm battling through I'm doing it. I mean, quite an old building on the top floor and it's really cold. So yeah, anyway, in today's, video, I'm going to talk to you about some of my claim. Sorry, I'm, really not good at this speaking on camera thing, I'm gonna speak to you about some of my favorite clothing brands to resell. Now, these brands are sort of my bread and butter burns that I see regularly and pick up regularly do not bruns like the highend highend. They are like the brands. I pick up on a day to day basis and yeah, that's it really so I'm gonna go through some of those and talk to you a bit about how I find them. So the first one I'm gonna bring up ears borden. Now, borden used to be really really good for selling for me. It used to sell really quick, and you get quite high prices. Now recently, it seems to a dropped, and I think it's, because they've opened some sort of discount store on ebay. I could be wrong, but think nice. The reason why, however, I still do pick it up if it's cheap enough, especially the bigger sizes, but borden, and it just fell. But it just sits around a little bit more than I'd like it to. The next one is fat face. And that face is, I think he's like a dirty brand something like that I don't know, it's good quality. And I do see it around here quite a lot. But a lot of the time it's in tight condition. And I don't pick it up if it's tacky condition and force at fairs. I tend to pick it up only if it's in like really nice condition, it's a ladies brand. Some of this all the styles, I find a really struggle to tell, but sort of the plain stuff. And the ones with nice prints on tend to go quite well. For me, the jumpers I've saw quite a lot of jumpers and dresses as well. So you have fatface he's a brand that I pick up and hobbs hobbs is I think it's hobbs of london it's called there isn't a shop, round ear of hobbs. But I thoughts tend to see quite a lot of it, which I don't really learn too somehow. But anyway, it sells really well for me. And I pick it up whenever I see it. I start. I do have a price point on it that I don't like to pay above, but to be fair, the charity shops, where I live we're all pretty cheap anywhere. And yeah, I picked up ahab's flowers the other day if 2 pounds. So yeah, hobbs it's, definitely a winner for me. And I wouldn't spot a really really nice sort of lamb's, wool, orange cob skirt. And I think I paid 4 pounds for that. And I sold it for around 50. So yeah, pops it's, a nice brand, um moving on to like plussize bronze. So like simply be new look inspire evans, yours, clothing and brands, like that really even sort of asda if it's plussized to you all those things anything in plussize. I tend to pick up if it's nice, because I do sell a lot of that. And yeah, I think the more popular brands tend to be like the oven, the article oven. And then obviously does have off brands like branch off brands, simply be, for example, have a ex paris, which is one what they use quite a lot of us. I know the sell your browns as well, joe brown's, again, enforce size. I pick it up to be fair in standard sizes. I still pick it up as well, but the plus size want to sell a lot faster. And a bit of research I did was and went on to those and websites are I looked at simply bait. I looked at various others, and I went through all their other labels that they do. So now I start anew and what to look out for in that. And that is quite helpful, actually to do that. So that's how I found out the salt your browns and the ax paris and various other ones that quite think of johanna hook is another one what their cell. I think that's more than mature reward, rather than the younger one, but johanna herb do some really nice post. I'd evening pieces, and they sell really well for me as well. So yeah, it's definitely worth looking into and doing a bit of research on that, but plus size sells well in in any brand, really, but they're like the more ones selected to it sort of thing don't. If this is making much sense, but those are the ones that really only sell that basically and got there in the end. Another brand I like is perona, pruning them, sell brilliant for everyone else. But I tend to do quite well with it. I see it really cheap and some nice pieces in a picket book again, it's, one of those biggest size I sell better things, but they do some nice pieces. And even in the smaller size, they do sell for me. So yeah, perón is one of those, and then obviously preliminary to branch off of m&s. So max and spencers again, I do pick up their things if the nice and there's a good quality corded, and they also do individual and integrals like the trendy aversion of m&s so to speak, and I do well with their pieces as well. So yeah, karuna indigo and essences. The do collection as well there's quite a lot go on the website I've through and and just see those brands, but again, I'm, not in this video I'm, not saying that these brands will work for you god by them. It totally depends on the size the piece, the time of year all that sort of and I'm just sharing with you, basically what what I sell. And another one that works quite well for me is star by julia mcdonald it's. One of the designers at debenhams brands, it's, the do some nice pieces. And again, it sells. But I mean, the plus size and the regular sizes, but yeah, it's just quite nicely. It's, usually quite glitzy and clumb. And it works really well. It looks real good on footballs. Um moving on. I've got laura ashley. I think everyone running a real number more rationally, pour, yeah, it's. A problem that sells, well, for me, mods are vintage pieces and the modern pieces. But yeah, I've had great success with those. Um, I can never pronounce this. I apologize in advance advance. Yeah, villa its spelt, g, a c q. You know, yeah, qu. Es, ve, rt and it's, a brand that does quite well for me. And I see it quite a lot because we've got earn a discount store of that in a local mill around here. So it sells a seat quite often. The vintage pieces tend to do better, but the modern pieces do well as well again, I think it's with a more mature lady, um, but it's, just a brand that I have fantastic. So obsessed with I see it a lot around here. And yeah, I like selling it either branded, ooh, actually enjoy selling. Because I don't really know why it's not my type of clothing. But yeah, I just steamed rice, selling it and moving on before. I keep you here a hole there and another one I enjoy selling interferes 8. There is ait's quite good seller for me and david emmanuelle, again, mod plus size, and the smaller sizes and monsoon monsoon fusion, which is likely again, more more and your vision. I think they do quite well for me, depending on the piece. I do a lot of dresses, what like 100% silk and they're do quite well rogers and rogers it's only madeline, but plussized rogers and rogers. I tend to do quite well with so yeah. And I think I've had dresses in there in size 30 and my size 26 and all that. And they sound really really quick. So if I see rogers and rogers in a decent size I'll, pick that up and basler bustles are ladies clothing line. I sold coats of those before and they've gone quite well. I haven't had any other piece. His book, the cook's have gone really well. I've just picked up a skirt the other day, actually still and white stuff, which, again, I'm sure you all have heard of, although it tends to slow down the white stuff for me a bit east again, a brand that's quite nice to sell some of our linen dresses of those wolfe cardigan things like that. Jim norman. Now I always thought jane, norman quite dated, but I do well in jane norman pieces and dresses. I've heard quite a lot dresses, sell jumpers just anything with a bit of something about it so to speak, but yeah, jane norman and it's, usually a brand that seemed pretty cheap as well and long tall. Sally, I think it's obviously like taller clothes for like you no longer clothes. I think that I do quite well with that pricewise. It goes quite well. But then again, I can't get the pieces someone sell really quick some sit around for months and months and months that could just be my price point because I do am quite high, but I don't know, and and then your high street brands are like topshop zara river island, again, I will pick them up if the nice pieces. I think these are just the best out of them all. But I have salted me other night with rylan dresses, some really nice topshop dresses. So I do pick them up if it's a nice piece and principles now principles, again, it's, not a fantastic brand, but looking into some of their items. I've had jumpers of them what a kashmir I've had dresses again, hundred percent silk and things like that. So they are good quality some of them. So if you do see a principled item, it's always worth sort of looking at it in a little bit more detail, and then minuet is another one that goes well for me for dresses, and they do mignonette petite as well. I don't know, if that's a full name, I can't, remember, but yeah, minuet feels quite well, it's, not quite a few evening dresses, there's quite a few work, wear dresses and it's done well. And then finally I'm going to finish with a fan right months. And then matt munson is I've sold so many different pieces of that from tailored suits to dresses, two tops to everything and it's. It seemed to have like a little bit of a following. So it does quite well. So yeah, I think that's about all the daytoday clothing brands that I see and I pick up, yeah, it'd be interesting to know what yours are our breadandbutter clothing brands are down in the comments. And yeah, thank you for watching. I hope you liked this video. If you did, then please like down here, someone think and subscribe, I think somewhere I'm, not very good at the huge thing. If you haven't realized, you think I will be by now, but we'll get there someday. So thanks for watching everyone.

Hi, this is mark williams with your contractor hack for the day. today, we're going to talk about sand paper. I run a strip of duct tape down the back of any piece of sand paper. I cut I try to line the whole back. What it does is reinforces the paper, which is usually the part that will tear first and fail much, much before the actual sand rubs off. You can even see this piece,. I am rubbing it down to the actual paper. So that is your contractor hack,. This is brought to you by sergeant schedule an online cloud based software that tracks time,. You can upload files,. You can put every single project you're working on, on the map, on google maps. It is great,. It will organize your company and help it run smoother. So thanks again.

Well, we're here with something a little bit different today. This is notice, this is not the color of the interior planet blaster on. This is actually out of the sear a. This is a finished product. We this all started all last summer. When my wife put her me into this spot right here popped a stitch. I needed to get it fixed. And I knew that so about two weeks ago, I went out there, unbolted the side to get it out to take it up to my upholstery shop and have him resew the stitch and found a bunch of wrought. It was absolutely rotten the backside of these seats, and these are original, and I kind of knew it. So I mean, I could smell the smell, and I just kind of put it off because it wasn't structural whatever we did to see right. So I pulled it off and looked at the the back of it and decided, you know what I need to try to rebuild these things. So I took this the covering off and turned up to my upholstery shop, and they end up having to replace this side panel right here. And they actually did a very very good job of matching the white. It actually looks really really good. The stitch was completely busted all the way across. So they reached everything so that way it's just like new, but that kind of brought me to my problem of how in the heck do. I remake this seat. It has a huge bend on the back of it that obviously was steamed in tin in the factory, but we don't have that type of steam bending technology and like my garage. So I had to figure out some way to do this. And I tell you we went through a couple of different ideas. I would say before we settled on what we did. And now this is probably not the way that like a poultry shop. It has a steam vending machine and odd stuff. But this is something that to doityourself we can do in their home. So let's go see what we've done and I'll give you the idea. So this is our old one or the one that I have not done yet after I discovered that one was so rotten and fixed it. I decided, you know might as well do the other one. So here we have the old rocking brokedown piece here. And you can see, it is absolutely falling apart, completely rot now it's dry now, because it has not been out in the weather or anything like that. This was all done prior to me purchasing it. So you can see it has this really really steep bend between these two pieces right here. So the thought was is, how do we get that bend without? You know, ruining the wood or without a steam bender? Basically. So what first thing we tried was getting a piece of plywood and putting striations in it and wetting it and moving it around to make the bend that just wasn't working very well. So I thought you know what screw this I'm just going to take it up to my upholstery guy, and let them figure it out. And then the sun came outside and said, something of profound. He said, why don't you cut strips and do it that way? And I thought, well, that's it at first we didn't, I know, I'd probably going to work more. We thought about it. My dad came up with a great idea is to put the strip's together and attach them with either staples or a cloth. So that way you kind of get an accordion appeal to accordion effect, yeah, cord, accordion effect. And then that way you can actually, you know, kind of mold it around your your scene here. So let's go back over to the the new piece and I'll show you how we did it. So here's, the final product of how we did the back of this. You can see the stripe the strips that we did and I'll show you exactly how we do this here in a little bit. But I wanted to show you the finished product. Now we did strips, and we used the existing seat as a mold to be able to hold it down. And then I put strips of 1708 across it in three places to hold it in its position. Now I didn't do it on the other side because you want to still maintain some type of flexibility. So that way if you're not exactly right on, or when you're covering it, it doesn't, you know, it's not perfectly stiff. Now, I know a lot of you guys are saying, oh, what about water going down inside these little holes? Well, I have completely soaked this with resin. And honestly, this is open down here, it's mesh. So if water gets in there it's going to just drain all the way out so I'm, not really concerned about that at all and plus this is a vertical surface, water, doesn't, sit on it. I don't know how in the heck that rotted it probably just was, you know so saturated out in the water for so long, it wasn't protected. Anything is going to rot. So by doing this, we get our comp our curb that we needed, and we can attach our straight pieces. And all I use was just one layer of 1708, just kind of hold everything in place. And now you can see it is it still got a teeny bit of flex to it? So that way we can we can move it to be able to fit in the boat, but it's nice and sturdy and I'm, not going to worry about it ever coming apart. Now you notice we also had some screws, which I'll show you here in a second that we're sticking out on the backside. We just put tea nuts in there that will actually attach to the hull whenever we put it back together, and then this side. And this side is just from screws going in from the. I guess it's. The storage compartment side, real easy to get to so I'm, pretty proud how this turned out. It really really was a lot of work involved. And it was not just a simple fix, but let's go now on this to try to put one together and we'll start with the compound curve, or the curve that we're dealing with and then we'll go from there. What you want to do first whenever you're making the curvature of this is to cut a lot of strips. And what we did is we took, and we made 1 inch strips times, we needed like twelve and a half inches or so that's, what our sizes we made twelve and half strips. And then what I'm doing is I'm going back with my stapler and creating stapling one side. So that way we can create a bend, and this will be our inside so I'm, putting these down I'm, not going to super rambunctious with the staples. So what we're gonna do now you see I've got it done, and it creates a nice perfect. Little bending. You can't, go back the other way, but you can go this way so we're going to take it over here to our rotten existing and we're going to lay it over the top here, just like this to get our bend. And then what I do is I'm going to shoot some sheetrock screws through it to hold it down. And then we take three layers of 1708 and just strips it's. All you need. You don't need a ton of this. If you make it too stiff, and we learn this on the other one is if you make it too stiff, you can't, adjust it when you get into the boat and then there it will not then you can't get it to lay down flat and we're only putting strips on one side we're in once we get this done we're going to cut our side pieces, and then we'll 1708 them just on this side. So that way we still have some flexing so I'm gonna grab some sheetrock screws, screw this down we're going to mix up some resin and put it on the back here. What I've done is put this down three strips. This is not a science here. This is just all we're doing is trying to hold this in place, because the staples are kind of weak on the other side. So it allow us actually just a teensy bit of flex in the in this piece. So that way we get up against the boat, it'll move a little bit, and we can actually suck it down to fit the radius. So all I'm doing that I'm, taking my extra here and I'm just kind of letting it flow down inside the cracks. So that way it seals all the in grains really really good. What I like about this kind of design is that the fact is is that these are kind of open in here. And if any water ever gets in there, it's going to drain out, instead of actually just sit on the wood, just kind of nice. So what we have here is the final product of what we started yesterday had some dinner meetings to go to. So we took off and let this dry overnight. So now you can see you have a very very good, basically, kind of a curve, that's it's, not completely stiff. You can actually get a little bit of flex to it, but it actually works really really well and then that's how what's going to sit right here. Now, you'll, notice that it's higher it's a lot taller. Once we strip this down. We put this on here, and then I trace it with it with a pencil to get my line here. And then we use a jig saw because it actually kind of has a little bit of raised in the middle and the best way to do it is by using the foam in the back of this to get your right line. Then once that's done, we can take everything apart and cut out these other pieces and get those treated and we're, just putting a real light coat of resin on them that are fairly protected in my boat as long as you don't. Let water run down them. All the time you'll be just fine. Once you've removed the cover obviously, and you've removed this rotten back piece. Now you have your your space. So what I did is I took the rotten piece, which is pretty much a poster child for black mold. I laid it up against it just to make sure that our our curve was correct. And we are very very very close if not deadon. And then I also checked my distance, and I turned out we had one extra. So we took one of the little strips off. And now it fits nice and neat into it's its little home at the proper angle. Now, you notice it's too tall. So what I did is I dad and I held this together, and I used a sharpie and just drew on the cushions. And I marked top it's very important. We forgot to do that on the last one, and we spent like 20 minutes trying to figure out exactly where it goes. So, definitely mark your top. So anyway, we're going to take the jigsaw now and we're just going to cut right along this line, very slowly, while it have been a whole lot easier to cut on the crown side versus this side. But you didn't have the line on that side. So to that we'll do the other side here I'll be back with you in a minute believe it or not. We came up with a really kind of cool way to separate the foam from the wood because it's glued onto the wood. I have this old paint mask that you use when you're painting stuff. It keeps you from you put it up like this. And it keeps you from painting your brick as you're spraying. I use it when I dream on this house and I'll tell you we just slid it right in between the phone and just use a knife fashioned like that I'm machete or work piano wire or whatever this just happened to be with whatever was closest worked out pretty good. So now we're do the step we need to trace our flat pieces, which are these right here. These are the ones that came off at now you notice, this has a little bit of curve to it when you screw these down to the fiberglass it'll, pull it down and cause the curvature, but it's, not enough really to worry about. And once you crank it down on it, you get a little bit of heat there and the summertime it'll be just fine. So we traced them onto here. One thing you got to remember as always draw your up, and then put which side is out. So when I have this laid here, I know that this is the up, and then this side face too faced out. So I mark that and also marked the sides that don't need to be rounded. If you look at these, you can see that they're kind of beveled all the way around and they're rounded edges, but beside that bolts, or that goes to the piece that we just curved is flat. And that way you don't have to worry about trying to bridge a gap or anything that creates a better scene. So we've got these I'm going to grab my jig saw before it starts raining again and cut these pieces 30. So now what we're going to do so we're going to take our stapler and park in the two hands of this? I don't know if we're going to be able to actually film it? What we do is you take this, and we just cross between these like this, and you drop a staple in there, I'm gonna we're going to not film this, but we're gonna you got it that was enough. What we do is you go down, you put staples in there. So that way you kind of create yourself a little hinge. And then once we figure out exactly where we want, it we're going to drop some 1708 over to create our just to kind of hold it, nice and neat and then we'll be ready to going to cover this entire thing and resin, let it kick off and then we'll cover it. Well, we got distracted a little bit yesterday with some other issues. And I couldn't finish up what we started so we're back on it today and we're going to get this done and going to be reinstalling, the boat we're up to just a recap where we are we're up to the we've actually assembled everything and glassed it together and it's one piece with a little bit of flexibility and it's, completely dry and covered in a really good coat of resin. So now what we're doing if you remember we have these for when you call them the holes that we're going to put these tea nuts into what would I do is they just basically hammer into each one of these holes, and then from the other side this screw comes through, and it grabs hold and then the fiber glasses right here. So it pulls this piece to the to the piece of to the fiberglass and conforms to it. So what we're going to do now is we're going to hammer these these tea nuts into these little holes, these little tea nuts are really easy to install. All you do is you just drill your hole that's, the appropriate size, put it down in here, grab your hammer. Just like you do a nail. And those little little spikes will dig into the end of the wood. The reason you use these is because once this seat is on here and the foams on here, we can't get to this backside. I guess you call these captured nuts, also that's kind of another word you can use for them. Now we grab our other screw here. So the foam is going to be on this side wrapped in your vinyl we'll have coming in. So the fiber group, the fiberglass of the boat goes right here we have access from behind. It just comes in, and then this will thread on. And this big washer will be in between there. And then we just tighten it down, and it pulls everything down perfectly the other side. We have lots of good access and we're just going to run normal screws to the fiberglass to hold this down. This was the only ones that had captured nuts on it. Now you take standard spray adhesive, and you spray both sides according to the instructions on this one we're supposed to spray kind of a lightish coat on both of these let it dry for about, oh 30, 45 seconds. And you stick them together, it's kind of like contacts them in so I'm going to do the honors on this make sure you get all the edges, really good go into a heavier coat around these edges. All right here just go around this edge. Real good. All right now. Do this thing this one, you can do a little heavier coat on it, the phone's going to want to absorb it a little bit more so you're going to put a little heavier coat on the phone just so it doesn't get absorbed and it we can't use it make sure the edges are not the edges now we're going to take this and stick it on here. You want to hold that nice and steady for me, you want to try to make sure you get it where you want it. First, try because usually when this stuff sticks, it's, pretty much stuck for good. And I think we nailed it pull it around and push down that's, it it's that simple now it's bonded permanently. And now we'll go get our our cover let's, start stapling it. Now here comes the fun part just putting this back on. And I really can't tell you exactly the right way to do this or it's, just you've got to kind of get it over here and start kind of stretching it till you get a good bond. So what I do is I start on the top, and then I go down to the bottom and I'm using 9/16 chin, staples I'm, not going to put a lot in right now, because I want to make sure that this is exactly where we want it before we tack it down for good. Yep, go ahead, just see how that the shadows work. Okay, so we had a problem with on the other. One was this part right here. It didn't want to lay down flat. And this one has laid down perfectly. I think because the other one had a new piece of vinyl on it that's, why you didn't lay down flat, and we had to do a lot of stretching and moving it around this thing just dropped in just perfectly. So now we're going to go around the whole outside perimeter and put in a ton of staples, and then we'll put in the welting after that. Now, it's time for the wilting. Now this stuff is just I took it off the best of abilities, but you know, we tore a few places this goes over the top of it, and it kind of gives it that finished out look. And so what I want what I like doing on this is, I just got it started here and sticking a staple right in there there you go and then come down here and put one in the middle right there, I'm, sorry. Now, go down here and do one in the corner. Go back. You didn't, get one I'm, just kind of lined it up don't, put them when it kind of lined up as best you can. And once you get it all the way around and go back and tack it permanently here you go so hit me then, too high. Okay, when you're pushing it's going up. So just try to push in there. You go dowon's opponent. So now we've got an open round, we'll, go back through and put a ton of staples in and then we're done we're going to take it off the boat and see how it fits. So here we are, we've got the port side here and then see how it's going to fit and pretty confident that it goes in nice, yep, doesn't realize what we're going to do is I'm going to use those bolts first to actually secure this side and then we're going to screw around that direction. And we have to go into this little storage compartment to do that it's kind of tight, but you got to do what you got to do. So what I'm doing is I'm taking our little bolts here and I'm going behind here and there's actually big holes in this fiberglass. They go through matter finding. And as you tighten them down, it'll suck, it right up against stuff the fiberglass then we can go around the other side and screw it all down. I brought that down sure did in it? Okay, you're done. You sure, yep, oh man, look at that. Perfect perfecto. All right as you can see there's the final product they're on really really nice, and I couldn't be happier. So now that means that every bit of the rottenness of this boat is finally gone.

Hi guys, my name is katie, and I work for the awardwinning publishing company how to become. Now this video is for electrical comprehension and it's for anyone who wants to know what to expect how to pass these types of tests and show you sample questions that you could be asked during your assessment. So what are electrical comprehension tests? Well, they specifically are designed to measure your performance in relation to electrical concepts. And what I mean by electrical concepts are shown as follows. So, for example, simple circuits electrical symbols switches lamps currents, electrical energy has a perceptions, electrical safety and so forth and so forth. So all of these will make up an electrical comprehension assessment. So who has to sit an electrical comprehension test? So anyone who is applying for a job that requires strong levels of electrical and technical ability will most likely be expected to undertake an electrical comprehension test when they apply for the job? Ok? So this is usually before an interview, but some jobs offer the interview before the assessment, ok. So it just depends on what job you've applied for so types of jobs that require an electrical comprehension, test conclude signal, repairers and let's call engineering wireman. The armed forces electricians, engineer's, physics, royal air force and technical positions. So if you're applying for a job that involves one of these aspects, then it's most likely, you will be expected to undertake an electrical test. So preparing for your assessment so there's, no doubt that you will struggle with electrical aptitude test. If you have no prior knowledge in regards to technical or electrical concepts. So you need to insure yourself with the best preparation in order to secure that job position for which you've applied. So it is imperative that you take the time and focus on what is expected in terms of a successful electric comprehension test. So carry out lots of sample testing questions, which focus on the subject you are preparing for. So in regards to electrical test is vitally importantly, that you understand what the question is asking. So you need to read the question carefully to ensure you have read it correctly. So while undertaking sample tests it's important that if you get a question wrong, spend some time working out why you've got that wrong? Okay, so within this short video, we provided answers and detailed explanations to assist you through your learning process. So if you get a question wrong, consider why you have got everyone? Okay. So free food answers in order to improve your overall knowledge. So when practicing it, you must ensure that your work that you work on your speed as well as accuracy. So most tests are administered under time limits. And therefore, you will be expected to answer as many questions as possible within the allotted time, given having said this, you do not want to sacrifice the accuracy of your answers. So do not rush through questions. You want to avoid making careless mistakes. So the majority of tests will be in a multiple choice. You want to stay away from wild guesses, because this can come at a price, and you might lose marks with incorrect answers. So this will depend on your assessors to just find out prior to your assessment, whether any wild guessing will deduct marks in your overall assessment. So some questions might ask you to draw or sketch, an electrical component so make sure that your drawing is clear and it's labeled. When preparing for an electric comprehension test, you should spend an adequate amount of time practicing circuit questions and symbol questions. So circuit questions are the basic foundations of any electrical test, and that often used to assess basic understanding of electrical components. Simple questions, refer to component components, found within circuits, such as resistors lamps fuses, amplifiers and so forth forth. These types of questions form, the very basics of electrical understandings. Therefore, you need to master these to a high standard to even be considered for the job post. So having a basic gcse understanding your physics and electronics will be an advantage to you. So you need to fully be equipped to tackle these questions and score highly on the assessment so brush up on the basics of physics circuits and electronics. Finally, we've also provided you some additional free online psychometric tests, which will help to further improve your competence in this particular testing area to gain access to the free online psychometric tests simply go to this link that I've provided here. So it will give you some more sample questions for you to work through. So let's have a look at a few sample questions and sample question 1, what are the basic particles that make up an atom? So this is relying on your knowledge of science and physics. So your answer options are 8, protons neutrons and particles b, protons and electrons. C, neutrons protons and electrons or d, mesons neutrons and electrons. So you will need to know the actual answer that you cannot guess to a question like this. So in actual fact, the answer is c, but you would need to know the basics in order to answer that question correctly, ok. So it is, in fact, neutrons protons and electrons that make up an atom sample question 2 in the following circuit, if switch a closes and switch b remains open, what will happen? So there are your answer options, and here is your circuit. So if switch a closed is so this switch here closes, so that will be shot and form a complete circuit there, but switch b remains open, what will happen so that a bulbs xy and said, will illuminate b bulb x will illuminate illuminate to see bugs, y&z will illuminate or answerde. No bulbs will illuminate. But as you can see if this switch closes, but this one is open, you should realize that its nobles with alumina, because this is a broken circuit. This switch switch b, would have to be closed in in order for the circuit to be complete, because the battery the power source is on that route there. So that would have to be closed in order for the battery to work correctly. Sample question, 3 in the following circuit. If both three is removed, and the switch is closed which bulbs will illuminate. So they there are your answer options. And here is your circuit. So if we removed bulb 3, so this is the bulb here and the switch is closed. So again, this shows that the circuit would be working because that switch would be shut. And therefore it would allow the battery to provide energy through the circuit, but remember you're taking out this bulb here. So you should realize that the answer is bulbs. 1, & 2 will illuminate, ok. You should know this because if you take in bulb 3 out of the equation, this means that it will affect bulb 4 because it runs on the same circuit. But both 1 & 2 will still illuminate because it runs on the circuit on its own and still has the power source. And the switch would still be closed. So working from here, you've got the power source. You go up to bulb. One bulb 2, you go straight down. And this would be closed. So therefore bulbs 1 & 2 would still illuminate both full wouldn't illuminate, because you broken the circuit here by taking out the bulb sample question, 4. So what are the minimum and maximum acceptable values? If if a resistor has the resistance of 14 and can tolerate plus minus 20%? So this is a more technical question, and I will show you how to work out. So you in 14k would be 14 14 thousands. You need to divide this by a hundred and times it by 20, okay, which would give you two thousand eight hundred. So to work out the minimum value, you'd use fourteen thousand minus the 2800, which would give you 11 thousand two hundred or eleven point two and the maximum fourteen thousand two plus the two thousand eight hundred, which would give you sixteen thousand eight hundred or sixteen point eight. So this is a more technical question. And this type of question would appear in a more advanced electrical comprehension test so sample question, five using the wheatstone bridge circuit calculate the resistance of r3. So here with what your circuit so how to work it out. So in order to work out the resistance, you should use the following equation. So r1, divided by r2 equals r, three, divided by r4. So r1, divided by r2 equals so it's, the same amount as all three divided by r4. But you have to work out what r3 is so r1 and r2. So 180, divided by 400 is not 0. So are three divided by r4 needs to be equivalent to naught point. Four, five so are three equals 180, which is our 1 times the 600, which is a value of r4 and then divide that by r2, which is 400 to give you 270. So if you factor that in to the equation, 270 divided by the 600 will give you not point, four, five. So both of these are now equal. So that completes the sample questions of this video. And I would like to introduce our electrical comprehension test workbook, which contains a whole range of tips and advice for you to work through your electrical comprehension test. It contains the loads and loads of testing questions for basic intermediate and advanced tests. So you can start a basic level and work your way up. And this is ideal for anyone who has to take an electrical comprehension test at any level. It also contains detailed explanation. So you know how to get to each and every answer it's, a comprehensive guide that is invaluable for anyone who is about to undertake their electrical comprehension test. So all that's left for me to say is thank you for watching? I hope this videos helped for more information on electrical component tests. Please visit has become calm where there's where you'll find a lot more information about electrical comprehension tests and more links to add sample questions.

My name's todd from the founder of es bus works we'll get into what that is a little bit later. But for right now, I would like to address some of the allow you that I found to be completely, yes and getting panels now I'm going to show you an alternative way. And you can get this panel down in a couple minutes by yourself, having a helper will help as far as actually removing the panel when it's done, but no grinding, no drilling about thirty dollars worth of tools from harbor freight. You will need an air compressor and let's get to it so we're going to use an air chisel to pop out the center of all these rivets right up along here, then we're going to use a an air chisel bit that is sharpened in a particular way to cut them right off at the end of the video you'll be able to see how to shape the bit basic air. Chisel punch we're going to punch. This steel nail like section as emitter up middle of all these rivets. Now, this whole thing will cite a time that this takes at the end we'll post, it up, but we're going to fast forward some of those through some of them. So the video doesn't, go quite so long. So starting now, okay, okay is this underneath here. So start to come up angle it up a touch and then and off with the test, the king, caroline same problem, the airline. So here we go, you can see we did not damage the panel there's a little bit of paint off. But this is marge. Not dug up, just nice and smooth. You cannot get that result with a grinder or a triple applause applause, see how quickly and easily those come out again. This isn't part at all couples gave a hard time. I think there's a the center nail and pushed out quite all the way I just worked a little bit. No come out. I've taken this out first that the couple here will hold us in place. It doesn't fall down on us, we're going to dip these out, and then a nick or cameraman here is going to jump in I'll pick us up on these absolutely nothing. There is no mooring to the surface at all just fine. What a good idea for this the edge, neither shirt there we go. So I think that was all about five minutes with talking to you. So this week, a nice couple minutes by yourself, much better than drilling grinding, any of that and welcome to the bright side. All right. So we will talk about here is the shape of the air chisel that we're going to use to remove the ceiling panel of our school. If you don't care about the condition of these panels, when they come off as a very important budget, you want to take them off without marring, the more damaging them. This is a way to do it. I found that I can basically do this without leaving a scratch as long as I'm careful. So we have here is that the regular harbor freight long air chisel bit and take out on the belt, sander and made a nice round at this is going to be the edge it's going to be on the roof panel. And we've just sharpened to the approximate list shows a nice round curve that will approximately match the shape of the roof, an inner side. Just a nice sharp chisel edge. Just like like you.

Hello and welcome welcome back to the clutter challenge. We are on week, 6 task, 6. So of course, I'm going to ask, how was task 5 were you able to let go of some of that obligatory clutter, the family memorabilia that you were holding on to because you felt too guilty to let it go. I love to hear how that worked out for you. So please feel free to use the comment section below. Now this week we are going to move on to something completely different. The last few weeks we have been focusing on sort of shifting our beliefs and reframing. Our thought process this week it's much more straightforward, we're, moving into the heart of the home that's, right? We are going to the kitchen. And this week's task is clearing the kitchen. Countertops countertops, those flat spaces. They are a magnet for clutter. So specifically, what I want you to do is go into your kitchen. Of course, set the timer. And I want you to take a look around, what you're going to see are going to be two categories you're going to see the stuff that actually belongs in the kitchen, and then you're gonna see the stuff that doesn't. Okay, that was not like rocket science ii was it, but that's. What happens the kitchen counters, attract those two types of things it's, the stuff that you just didn't get to put away and it's the stuff that just landed there, because maybe it doesn't have a home or because we humans are pretty lazy. And that is usually one of the first thoughts people see when they walk into the home, a lot of people enter into their kitchens. So naturally, the kitchen countertop is an easy target for whatever you happen to be holding in your hands. And you don't really know what to do with it. So I'll, put it down here and there it stays and eventually it becomes part of the landscape. So put away the stuff that actually belongs in the kitchen scan around go and move through move across around the room and start putting stuff away then you're going to be left with stuff that doesn't belong in the kitchen. If you can clearly tell well that belongs to my son, or that belongs to my spouse, rally them delegate, you need to get and stuff put away if you don't know where it belongs. We've got a little bit of a dilemma, maybe the stuff they're in doesn't have a permanent home. I don't want that to be a hurdle here. So what I want you to do is grab a container containing stuff really help. So I want you to contain the stuff that doesn't belong in the kitchen, but doesn't have a home elsewhere. And then throughout the week, you can figure out where where would this live what's the most logical place. So the reason that you're doing this, the reason that you're actually containing that is to get it out of the kitchen so that you can enjoy that visual imagery of the green clear kitchen that does so much for our psyches to be able to go into the kitchen and know that you can prepare a meal or a snack without having to slide something to the side without having to worry about spilling on something important. So that's, this week's clutter challenge is to clear your countertops easypeasy and the return on that investment, whoa, man, exponentially large. So next week, I will be back with task number seven, but I would love to hear, of course how this task works out for you. So please feel free to leave a comment, please feel free to share this video. And of course, please feel free to subscribe. And as always if you have a question that you would like answered and organizing question, a clutter, clear in question, please feel free to ask away.

I'm going to do a video here on safety, learn all the way I can give you guys some tips and tell you things not to do. And what to do that make your life easier I'm. Just gonna do the caliper bolts. I tried drilling. Some bolts place on board. Yesterday, I have terrible bits. We wrecked before so give you the basic outline of the few things to do. And matthew first of all, um, when you say, if you are, you want the direction to always pull the bolt tight, and it cannot be in a neutral position. So right here we have a old as lining, the holes go from 126 clock position. And so on the bottom, I would not want to safety wire from the bottom of this hole to the top of this hole that would be neutral for both. I would also not want to go from the top of this hole to the top of this hole. Since the second bolt will be neutral. So how do I want to attempt this first of all I'm going to want to thread from the bottom up? Also I park it in any further, you want the beginning of your safety wire to be pulled at least a 60 degree 60 degrees. So if we have a hole at the three o'clock position here and we're going down that three o'clock positions, fine may even like a four o'clock. I would do any more than four o'clock to like a six o'clock position. I would not recommend. I mean here, it's, not as big of a deal as it was we're going to aircraft. But I try to show you the right way. So from here I'm gonna go I'm go through these six lock to the 12 clock. We run it down and do the same on this bottom one. Now I would say the biggest problem I've always seen people have is they just don't get the twist tight enough to the holes. This is generally where you'll see failure. The other issue is the direction you are going to pull the wire while you are twisting I'm going to probably mess this one up because I'm going to show you what not to do. Now when you are twisting the wire you want to keep the wire on the same plane as the bolt head, when you twist it out, let's say, we'll go here, which is 45 degrees. And you twist that wire back around and down this safety wire is going to come in front of the bulkhead it's. As soon as you bend that wire like that, it can be a pain to get it back. You can you can do a few tricks and hold it while you twist it back or you can push it back with the pliers usually war. But if you can just avoid that altogether it's, a lot easier the other issue. I see people usually have it is when they start to twist. They will go directly. They will go parallel with the water. If you twist it about for it, if if you position the wire about 45 degrees from the plane of the whole, you will get a tighter twist to hole. So I'll show you. I mean here, um, I got the safety wire in there I'm going to take like a clip, finger measurements, which I might not have made this wire long enough, leave grabs me by your side is real quick. So I'm going to strand this in in a direction, where d wire will be pulling tight and I'm going to be able to move around. So grab this. We used to do is when you snap it that kind of just straightens the wire out those how this wire is a little twisted this one's a lot straighter. You snap it straighten out this little be easier to handle it. You don't want to go too tight because you'll actually weaken the wire. I can take my quick measurements. I usually go about an eighth an inch farther. Then where the hole is this makes up for the amount the length that shortens with the twist of the water. Another general rule is wagon do this. So one pull of this lever is equivalent to the twisting of one inch of wire. So if you have five inches of wire to twist you're going to pull this five inches, five times it's, a little unknown fat help, you gauge whether you're correctly, correct so I'm going to I'm gonna pull here apple 45 to 90 degree twist or 90 degree angle from that hole. So I got essentially the correct amount of twist another tip here to tighten this up that hole is you are going to you're going to twist your wrist about 90 degrees. Try to do this again. I hopefully I won't break this fire and look like a scrub. You can just like roll your wrist about 90 degrees that will tighten up the hole to the safety wire or the say to our to the hole. So now pull this here tight. And as you can see, we are pretty close here. You want to get the twist as close to the hole as popular. This will give you enough. This woman, this will give you the good enough strength. So you won't be breaking wire. The strength is all from the twist. I mean, there is such a thing as a single strand method, but that is much weaker than the double strand twist method. Now now got our wire through the second hole here. And as you can see that top hole is kind of a horrible position. These are new forks. So the holes don't run out where I usually like them, which is a like three to nine o'clock position. If you possibly can that is the easiest way to work around it, but not a big feel. So once again, I want to go that because here, again, you want to go that 45 90 degrees from that hall. Listen now, give you a nice I'm tight to do that wrist? Twist few times, take it up. Then after you're done, you want to cut off and leave about half inch to an inch material. Faa guides, like you need three twists for a proper pigtail, take that twist around until position, where is out of the way now, as you can see, string is pretty tight pigtail isn't, moving much there's a little bit play, but your safety where is going to prevent things from falling off. If they loosen I working on jet engines have a lot more vibration than a motorcycle. Does I have found more bolts nuts, loose drop when I am safety of iron, then I have seen safety wire break it. Just it doesn't really happen. You torque stuff down this back the chance of it actually loosening its slim to none. Um, you know, usually it's, just, you know, a you you're busy if you forgot tighten something down. And you know, it comes with later, safety, learn something like that you're going to realize if it's loose or not that's where I have seen most of the issues. But as you can see here, we have this bolt twisting in a tightening position. And so does this one. Oh, this is great safety wire. Right here could be a little bit loop. It's it's, little loose. But that's not going to be an issue perfectly fine I'll show you some other things I've safety word. And this will hopefully give you ideas. Here is this radiator cap. I do here is I wrap it around twice do a little bit more strength, I'll come over to the top of the hole I'll go through to the side. Once again, you know, it's, I I don't see a radiator cap fallen off if you just pay attention to install like, it should probably know if it's going to be loose, or if you, um here, we have my oil fill cap. I haven't safety word this. Yet, I don't safety wire until I run it and make sure my oil levels. Usually I do at the track. I have seen quite a few people that will drill a hole through this bolt which you know, it's great. But I know this there's this tab here on the gsxr s and I'm, pretty sure that's, actually what that is used for since there's, no other tabs almost anywhere around this case, besides there. So I drill a hole through this guy. If you do drill through make sure you cut the safety wire with a pair of dykes don't yank on it with the safety wire pliers like I typically do, um, because this is aluminum. This does have a chance of breaking. But once again, you know, it's quite a bit of material here. You can drill a new one. If you do break, it just be careful, you know, pay attention what you're doing. I also did that same. I deal with the tab down here at my oil filter. As you can see, you were doing a, you know, this isn't neutral. This is still pulling about 40 degrees. And I drilled it into this tab. In the case I haven't had an issue doesn't seem what problem. You know, I've seen other people that put it other places whenever you're comfortable with the wittle drain plug, one of the things I highly recommend to do is use some kind of tubing to protect your case. You don't, you know, with vibration this safety wire will wear through metal. I've seen titanium tubes that we're leaking fuel all over the blaze because safety wire shaped through a titanium tube, doesn't even sound possible, but it till it happens. So I would highly recommend. You use the tube and slide that over the safety wire to prevent any kind of damage. Um, I just went straight to this. This kick stand bracket that's on there that work for me I'm happy with it. Pretty sure there's, no rules and the ccs that prevent that from happening. But that are the few tricks. I have hopefully they'll make it easier for you between the direction you're, pulling the safety wire while you're twisting it and that little wrist movement. I showed you you should be able to accomplish that. Just one of those things is you're going to have to practice to get these twists to that hole. The closer you give them to that hole the stronger your safety wire is going to be. And you know when you show them off to your buddies, you look like, you know, I could it's all I got just practice me.

Hey, guys, welcome to day 7 of our decluttering challenge today. We are dealing with host plants. So I actually thought of this challenge a couple weeks ago when I was actually dealing with my houseplants, my spider plant, which is back here had a whole bunch of babies coming off of it. No just overgrown and looking straggly and I'll show you a picture. So that's helped my spider plant look like it had all these babies hanging off of it, and I really needed to clean it up. So we actually got all of these babies off of it, and then all of these babies off of it. So then I decided, you know what I need to clean up this area. And I said, you know what I can make a whole series about cleaning up and taking us to day, seven, but we're back into visioning, where I actually came up with the idea. So today, we're cleaning up, where I keep all my host plants. They are all right here. Because this is just a wonderful window for them. I'm actually, just kind of behind the cameras another spider plant. And my african violet african, I don't really like that much fun. So they're, not emma direct sunlight. But here are all of our house plants. And so we have already given them a really good. Wash is take a cloth and wipe down all the leaves get all big buff stuff. So we have them a good water, but the actual place where I keep them needs a good decluttering. So here's, where we keep all of our host plants down here is where walter keeps a lot of his toys. But he just really like to dig. She likes prf. You used to like to dig in the dirt of the house pet. So we just added books, hey, get the plant up higher, um, I trust that he I'm gonna dig in the mana I'm, really hoping that he's, not gonna dig in them anymore. So I'm gonna remember all these book books that I have them on are actually all my old art books. And I have found a new home for them. I don't want them anymore. I really like them before, you know, it was so easy to find stuff on the internet. But now it's just it's so easy to find stuff on the internet that I feel. I don't need these books anymore. So we're going to take all the plants ops all the books off we're going to get the surface to good life. And then put applause applause. Oh, oh, applause applause, applause applause. This is what I'm getting rid of from my plant stand. I know it sounds weird, skewing rid of books from my plant. But please we used to hold up the plants to make them a little higher, but I like it without them. So all of my old art books that I was using as plant stem, I being way home to someone who will love them. And a bunch of dead leaves have left my plants. And if you have a bunch of house, plants, it's, a good time to go see if they need to be cleaned up its image, be thinned out, or some of them may be just would be better off at a different home. So, but if you're like me and you love them, then keep them just make sure to looking great so can't, wait to hear how your decluttering of your host plants.

Greetings greetings, welcome back to daddy, my way. And today I have shania and victor, and we are going to be doing what kids we're gonna change the refrigerator filter. Well, why do we have to change it? Yeah, so we want fresh water. Good tasting water, right so how? Well, how can we tell that the filter needs to be changed? I don't see a red light. So this red light here that says, change it. It says, replace right. Green is good. Yellow is order and red is replace and it's currently red. So we need to change the filter, huh? So where's the filter down there. So how are we gonna get that thing out of there? Well, I need to get down here with you little guys, oh, no, you can't pull. It buddy, there's, a button. There's, a button, push the button in no don't, pull. It push the button. Push it hard was it? Well, that's. Not working, is it? Daddy try no turn it up. Turn it around cuz, it's gonna leak water everywhere. Turn it around there. You go he's leaking water on the ground. Alright? So that's. This full of water, shania so let's, go ahead and take this bottom piece off that belongs to us all right now. You can take that filter, and you can what's the date on it. So every date august 2017, they're, good for six months, usually. So it says, august 2017 on there, all right, totally don't, throw the that cap away. Hey, give a towel out of there. Buddy, clean up the floor, just clean up the floor, got it all right? So we have a brand new filter here. So these filters, we get them off of ebay for about 15 apiece. You can go to your big box store, get them for 25 and 30 dollars apiece. So we like to save money. So we like to buy them in bulk from somewhere else. All right so go ahead and open it. And these filters, according to the instructions, they should last six months. And the instructions are here on the box. We install it and then run water from the dispenser six to eight minutes, or it does have a yeah, three to four gallons. So whatever you choose just make sure you're running good enough, so you can get some of the charcoal out of the filter and keep the water from sputtering. You hold this. You got to hold it up and let the camera do I have to do this. Yeah, okay. Just watch. Oh, yeah. All right. So we got the wrapper off, and can you see the wrapper off and I'm going to take off this little thing here, right all right? And the next thing is to put this cap back on the filter this this. And now we're gonna take the filter, and we need to write the date on it. So I forgot to write the date on it get a permanent marker. And right here in this white space, right here shinai is gonna write the date all right, that's good. And now all we have to do is take this filter. A lot buddy, don't, put it in yet. If you look down here, you'll actually be able to see the two holes in the refrigerator, two little receptacles in which way the filter should go in the two little receptacles are on top of each other. So the filter needs to go in sideways in order for the little prongs on the filter to fit properly. Let me see that filter. Alright, if you see there's, two little prongs on it it. So obviously the filter needs to go in facing this way, you'll actually hear some of the air being removed from it as water enters. And then all you have to do is run the water? Well, alright. So we have this big bowl. Then we put the bowl in here, and we need to empty it out. So we're just gonna keep on running it until we fill it up we'll fill it up about five times. So you see that sputtering there and that's. What we want to do is we want to keep the water coming out until the sputtering stops it's gonna be four or five bowls worth then it'll, go ahead and taste the water. It should taste fine. The sputtering should be gone right now, there's air in the system. So quite a lot of sputtering we'll just have to wait till it's done. Alright, so we have finally finished all of our water dispensing. And one thing we have to do reset the filter indicator, push switch, five times in ten seconds to reset filter indicator to green one, two, three, four, five, see that nice and green, well, just stop flashing in a minute. There we go. Alright and we'll be good for another. Six months shanaya wants to do a taste test because she's so thirsty crying. Go ahead. Well, victor so thirsty. He wants to do a taste test to what do you think it's. Good, yep, it's. What do you think buddy, you're gonna do a taste test koolaid water tastes like cool water. No it doesn't. He says, let me see, no, it doesn't, taste, fine all right? Well. Thank you for watching another episode of daddy my way, and we will see you later, you also put a link in the description for the integrator filters and we'll. See you next time? Yeah, it's. Good to do it. You crazy lady, if there is something you want to see on the channel leave a comment below don't, forget to subscribe.

Hi welcome to judds channel. Right here on youtube it's, a first step for all you do it yourselfers is to sand the shiny surface off of your old linoleum flooring. If your floor is anything like mine, it won't take that much linoleum is known to turn yellow with wear and age also chemicals used to clean these floors over time will turn them to a yellow tint after sanding with a medium grit sandpaper, the best thing to do now is to clean the dust from the floor using hot water and a regular mop now to cut the tape, you will need a flat surface I'm using this cutting board as you see here and you'll also need a cutter like this utility knife or box cutter as it's called along with a straight edge. The smallest painters tape I could find was point 75 inches wide as you see here. And obviously, this is not a quarter of an inch. So what I'm going to have to do is cut this down to match the pattern in the flooring and I'm going to come over here into I a quarter of an inch. Now it doesn't have to be perfect as I mentioned earlier, and you hold it down like so get your cutter ready and always be careful when cutting with sharp tools. And here we go simply glide across the tape and cut as close as you can to a quarter of an inch strip, how easy is that I told you it would be. Now you have one strip, which is approximately a quarter of an inch wide, and then you'll be able to apply this to the design of your flooring. We have lines running in both directions, and they are criss crossing to make a tiled effect as you can see just follow the line all the way to the edge like so and a real trick here for you, ladies and gentlemen, when you're tracing your pattern with the tape go in one direction, first and then overlap. The reason for this is when you go to pull this tape up after the paint is cured, you will be able to go in one direction. And then the other makes it a lot easier I'll be using glidden's fortune floor paint with a satin finish. This paint is designed to with the stand foot traffic and add a decorative appeal with a durable satin, finish. It also resists oil and spills in some instances you might find the strips of tape do not line up evenly this isn't, a problem and it's easily fixed. Subtle changes are hard to detect now here's how to fix it. This is a neat little trick. I have learned and will make your finished floor. Look even better. What you want to do is come along here and add a scrap piece of tape over the existing tape. Since the tape is very flexible, start at one end and gradually bend it over the gap tape. And what you just did was change a drastic dip in the line to one that is less noticeable alternately. You can cut the imperfections of the gap with your box cutter since you're going to be painting before anyway, because it looks like crab there's, no need to worry about cutting the floor, any minor cuts you make will be filled with paint take your box cutter and cut along the difference until the two pieces match up any remaining tape can be taken up to reveal a less noticeable difference. The difference will be very subtle, and the only one that will see it are motherinlaw's from hell and hell. Okay, there you go another little tip for you now after allowing to dry and cure it, you have the task of actually peeling the tape off. Now, remember I was explaining how when you do this tape. You do it in the same direction. So in other words, you put these pieces overlapping on to one another. So usually pull from one end all the way across and that's. What I've done here as you see I'm, just very gently peeling, this up, it comes up very nicely. And since I used the overlapping method actually pull this and continue pulling on one complete piece of tape. Now, sometimes there's an exception to the rule, and it gets stuck. But most of the time it comes right up beautifully. Now you have a branching you floor. And if you remember the before picture, that's quite a dramatic difference, if this is an apartment, you don't, necessarily have to do all the work like say in closet, you can just go to a certain level and then rehang your door, and that way you'll be good to go all right? You.

In today's video, we're going to talk about ways to kill broadleaf weed in your lawn, yo, mate. What up welcome to another lawn tip vid. Alright, today, we're back at ashes place and we're looking at his lawn here today. So we're gonna be spraying some weeds out of his lawn today. So they've got quite a bit of broadleaf. Let me just show you as you can see. It is infested everywhere. We've world lake weeds dirty day. So today, we're gonna be using camber em, which has some die camber and some ncpa nut. So that's, great for most of your turf tops. Now the only turf table it's, not really to be great on it's going to be your buffalo. So what you want to use is something from rocks and or from oxen from oxen, illinit and that's gonna be a lot better on your turf, though I can but actually affects buffalo quite badly. And we yell it off and can burn your grass. So don't use dyer, camber or camper em on your buffalo. So today, we're just gonna be spot spraying the lawn we're, not gonna actually be doing a blanket. Spray over the whole area. And the reason for this is so that we save some chemical has just better for the environment to be putting in less chemical. And if there's not a big amount of weeds, you're gonna be safe and do it the right way. So over this area here, there's, not too, many weeds, just a bit of marshmallow and some it's a little bit of bugs, alice as well and some clover as I was before one that everyone loves and over the other side is pretty similar. Wait saw some dandelions and plantain or your broadleaf stuff, which can be em is gonna knock pretty well. So as I said, we're, just spraying broadleaf weeds today, if you want to get your grassy weeds, probably need something like decimate or something a little bit stronger, which I don't recommend putting on new grass at this stage just got a bit of a stronger. Chemical always remember to when you're applying chemicals like this. You always read the label beforehand so get the label out check it and back up what you're gonna be doing now. So now we're using camp em, as I said and we're gonna also be using that blue spray dye, which you can see when I was mixing up the chemical, it gets all over your hands and stuff and can be quite staining. So be careful that stuff, but it's not it's, not bad. I'm sure looks very dialed it'll wash away. Pretty quickly if you know concrete will wash away within a couple of days freezing km today. So since we're spot spraying I'm going and putting it about with the cambium I'm gonna do about 50 ml to about 5 liters of water. Now, I'm not going to use all that. But they've got some weeds out the back as well, which they want to spray. So they can use it for that as well. But if you're doing it in like a 5 liter, one, like I am because I'm spot spraying then did a knapsack on my back. You just put about 50 million there. Because the application rate is a hundred mil per 100 meter square. So when you're spraying with these sprays, when you've got the fan tip nozzle, make sure you got a fan tip nozzle, make sure you spray it near heights. You get a nice fine mist on top of your weeds. So make sure if you iced brain, you've got some long sleeve shirt, a long sleeve shirt, long sleeve, shirt on pants, some boots and some glasses were supposed to wear gloves. But I've got now question they get quite all. The time is, when can you mow before after a lot of people like to mow beforehand just so it actually exposes the way it's constraining. The grass is gonna grow a little bit higher than your weeds in your eye. So it's always a good idea to mow beforehand. If you can afterwards, I'd wait a couple of days two to three days on the label that says a week, but you don't have to wait that long do within two or three days after you have sprayed. Now you also want to make sure that's not too much when you're in there's a little bit of wind today, we're just gonna give a sneak and get away with it there's, not too much. There there's quite a bit of blockages in the way of well like a house outside weather spraying so there's, not gonna be really too much wind eating, but make sure you do on a day that's, not too windy. Now make sure also when you are doing this it's, not gonna rain within the next 24 hours, because we want it to stay nice and dry for that long. So that actual chemical can go through the the leaf because the only doing a foliar spray so go through the leaf and go down to the roots. If you're gonna get some water within those 24 hours is less likely gonna get a kill on that as well. So you'll have to reapply a bit later. Thanks guys for watching chuck a lot down there. If you enjoyed that subscribe, if you haven't already, and you have a good week, looks.

Hi I'm, jeffrey knight with ewing irrigation. And in this video I'm gonna show you how to find a break in a field wire with pinpoint accuracy using a greenlee 2003, pulser. Broken, wires are a frustrating.It can be caused by poor splices, or even a tree root that's, grown through the wire., many times the only way to fix. This is to replace the entire wire from the controller to the valve I'm gonna show you better way. I used a volt/ohm meter to verify that the broken wire was actually the common wire. So to use the pulser, I'll, take the red lead and I'll hook it up to the common wire. The black lead will go to ground. Now when I turn the unit on, it'll, send twenty four hundred volts dc through the wire, I'll use the receiver to pinpoint the location of the break. The receiver goes parallel with the wire path. And when you turn it on there's, an analog meter that you'll watch when the needle bounces to the right, that's, the direction of the fault, if it bounces to the left, it's to the left. right now, it's showing that the fault is over there somewhere so we're gonna go get a closer look now. All we have to do is follow the needle on the analog meter right now. It's telling us that the fault is this direction. So I'll, pick it up and move it and its builtin back to the right so I'm gonna flag from the center point of the receiver, move it back again, it's bouncing in this direction. Now, so I know that the break is in between these two flags. now, I'm going to pivot the receiver and figure out where the break is this direction, the needle's moving to the left.so I'm going to pivot around. So now I know that the fault is somewhere within this grouping of flags. So now all I have to do is get a shovel start digging there. It is.right there. So you can see the pulser has prevented us from having to replace the common line all the way around the house. Now we can simply make to repair right here in the trench where the broken wire is I'm, jeffrey night with ewing irrigation and I'll. See you again with another trouble, shooting video.

Stick with me and I'm gonna show you how to make a very inexpensive raised garden bed out of free pallets. I'd actually built this pallet bed. I think somewhere around june or july last summer and it's, just a story. I haven't got to because I was like, why would I release this in the middle of the winter? No one's gardening, but the weather's, getting nicer and we're getting the gardening itch, I'm, itching, right now, I want to get out and play in the soil. So I thought I'd share this with you. I was gonna make a nice raised bed and as I'm getting older, I want a nice high bed. So I don't have to bend over and kill myself. And I was pricing wood and was blown away that what is so damn expensive now, it's outrageous. So I decided to look around and find how to do this with free pallets. And I kind of took some of the ideas out there and came up with my own it's, a very very inexpensive. And if you really want to like get down to the nittygritty, you can pull the nails and and completely do it for free. But hopefully you guys will like how this turned out. And I hope you try it yourself so I'm going to make a raised bed out of pallets. This is a heattreated one so it's safe. You want to stay away from ones that have a little mark that says, mb on the side as far as so look at the stick the stamp here says, ht means it's, he's treated. If I said, mb, its chemically treated, you don't want it all right? So what I'm gonna do is, uh, I'm, gonna cut I'll use my foot here. I'm gonna cut these out here. And here you'll get an idea what I mean to save time. So I don't have to deal with pulling nails, and then I'm gonna kind of stack these together. Now I got this idea watching a lady, australian lady, a thousand birds her youtube and hers is much prettier than mine is gonna be mine's gonna be a little more ghetto, but it should work really good we'll. See how it comes out? Does it give you a better idea? What I mean I'm, just gonna cut these out, and I don't have to deal with nails, I'm gonna use these pieces of scrap right here? Okay, so here's, where I'm at with this pallet build, I've pretty much. I think I'm just gonna do a little one. I was gonna make a really deep one, but I don't think I've enough dirt so I'm only gonna do it's probably gonna be about like 14, 15 inches off the ground. So let me show you what I did. So these are the salvageable pieces off. The pallets probably have to square up a few of them it's hard to cut perfectly straight. If I can get a table saw from my neighbor, I might do that. And then these are the pieces that are left. I'm actually gonna try to use the entire pallet and stick these on the inside it's braces. So we'll, see, this is only two pallets. I cut up and they weren't, even that good a palace. They didn't have a whole lot of usable, wood like here's, all the scrap. Maybe I can get some use out of that. I don't know. So hopefully I got enough for a little bed, we'll, see what happens here? So here's, where we're at you're basically fence building. I used the leftover braces in the pallet and ran them all the way across. Then I staggered the boards from different pallets, just kind of give it a cool. Better look kind of more random. And this is the measurement of one of the pieces of the pallets is left like a cut off here, but you're going to use it to measure your joining pallet and the wall. So you want to leave space on the ends for that. So you kind of start on the ends. And I gotta cut this section off where I put a line. And then the bottoms a little jagged to I'll, probably just take a skill saw and knock all that down into one level. So there you go and then I'll join four of these together, oh here's what it looks like on the other side. If you want to kind of see what person will be looking at and then I'll probably put a cap on the top. So I really don't have any money into this, except I didn't feel like reusing the nails. I mean, if you're really broke, I guess you could pull the old rusty nails and use them again. But I use, um, this was like six bucks they're, the star drive screws, but they're decking screws. So they won't rust and cause problems. So I hope so there you go so about 3/4 there and get it kind of a rough idea, what its gonna look like, um, let me show you some stuff on the inside. So I use the pallet braces on the inside. I measured them, one of them. The side ones here are 36, cuts, 36 inches. Then the other ones are 39 like an inch and a half on each side. So they fit together. They butt up against each other. This will actually give me just a little more space, because this wood takes up a lot of space in your bed. So I added an inch and a half on each side so that my actual soil will still be close to 36. Now, these braces are really thick and you're like well, come on. This is kind of an overkill, but dirt gets heavy and pushes. So it should be very strong and heavy, but also it's some good just to recycle all the pallet. And when the whole darn pallets almost used, unfortunately, I underestimated how bad the scrap is there's. A lot of you know, when you get these things they're free for a reason because most of them are busted they're missing a bunch of boards. So I am gonna have to scrap one more. I thought I could do this with two, but I had to in poor quality, probably do it with two good ones or three, cruddy ones. And if you didn't have enough of these braces, you can stud your leftovers together, because I am cutting them down to make a fourth wall. So I'll show you when it comes all the way done all right. So the sides are all screwed together. What I did is I screwed these two portions together, the thick portions with 3inch screws, and one of the areas ahead of bracket, because there wasn't enough wood to really get a good screw. I put cardboard down. And now at this point I'm gonna fill up well, this is really deep so I'm probably going to put in some wood chips then some dirt and then fill it back up with wood chips at the end. So let's see how this goes. Alright, so you get an idea of what I'm doing here because this box is almost two feet deep. I put a bunch of chips in as filler on the bottom. Now, some people don't put wood chips. They put soil first, wood, chips and that's. All they do. But because I needed to get this box up one, all that soil would be pretty darn expensive and pointless, but I'm planning for next year. You see this kind of late into the season I'm in july here, when I'm doing this so I'm, just using this box to grow greens, like really fast microgreens. So what I'm really planning for is the next year this these wood chips will break down a good chunk of them and become amazing soil over the next two years. So you can idea I will go about half wood chips 1/4 dirt. And then another quarter wood chips after I plant on top justic so I'm going really really deep. Now I learned about wood chips through the back to eden method about, I don't know, six seven years ago, and I've tried all kinds of gardening. And I keep coming back to it. Chips are amazing. You really have to do no watering very very little weeding. It gives it breaks down to amazing soil and never have to fertilize this. I just can't say, good enough things about wood chips, but they need to be wood chips, not really mulch. It doesn't work with mulch. Because when you look at these wood chips you, these things act like sponges, they soak water up and then slowly release them as the plant needs it. It doesn't work as well with mochis work.but wood. Chips is always my favorite. Also you want to try to pick the wood chips are really tiny, because they break down in a soil fast. The big chunks are kind of a pain. They take a while to break down. I mean, you leave them, put them on top or something just to protect it from the sun. But so anyway, I'm going to finish this and you'll get an idea and I'll probably put a cap on the end, just to make it look better on the top. So at this point, I put some troughs into the wood chips. So I could actually get to the soil and get in there just kind of get a better look. Then I found some scrap wood and put a cap on this helps keep the wood chips are spilling out the edges. Also I can put like some minor plants and stuff like that on it, nothing too heavy, though because it's only nailed into the sides. I wish I found a better way to do this I'll probably put some braces in the next time. I make it. So it has a can take more weight, but it's, pretty good for what it is. So here's, my game plan. I am going to grow a couple things that I never eat just to see if I like them watercress and right here. This guy gonna grow those blue keo keo, blue curled, which I think is kind of like a dinosaur curl, um, then these burpees were on sale for half price. And I like burpee, they're, usually pretty good spinach and flaxseed it's simon. I don't even know what this kind is we're gonna give it a whirl. So that's, my little microgreen garden, I'm gonna grow and we'll see how this comes out in two weeks. All right. So I opened up a little trough of soil. And this is not the only time you got to worry about this just getting them started. I try to get the seeds on the soil for a few days. And then once they start growing up with the woodchips around them, um, I recycled everything, including these tags, other plants, right? So and um, I put a cap on this by the way. So I've got a little ledge they can work with. I can put stuff down on you see. And the cap was some spare wood. I had again. So this the entire project here cost me about 20 bucks about twelve of it was in soil and eight of it was in screws and nails. Everything else I got for free. Alright? So when the seeds I forgot about the seeds, so the seeds are probably another six, seven bucks all right? Alright? So I'm gonna do intensive planning so you're putting a lot of seeds and one trough and it's survival of the fittest. They all kind of grow around each other. So there's, the first seeds away, I forgot to also mention that I wet the chips and soil down before I did this and like seeds like this. They do not. They don't want to be compacted here. So to just put them on top. Now, some of these will kind of work their way around the wood chips. If they're in the way that's pretty much, they will find their way down. You don't have to completely have soil, showing will still work here's. What they look like after about two to three weeks of growth, so they started out pretty great, and then they kind of stalled and went slow after that. So here's, what the raised bed looks like after a few weeks about six weeks, the bibb lettuce did come up and the kale started. But oh, this guys this stuff here. And then I took the dead spots and put some strawberry plants, and then they've been doing well. So we'll see what happens with that spinach really didn't do much there's a little bit of growth, but the bibb lettuce did well. So I must have either planted the wrong kind of stuff, put too many seeds in because they didn't grow as fast as I wanted them for microgreens you're supposed to have a harvest within two to three weeks. And this is six weeks and it's, not even really harvestable. So maybe the bib is it's about it I'm gonna try to figure out what I did wrong. But I imagine though that this will be a wonderful strawberry patch wedding it's going so I'm probably gonna convert it over to strawberries if nothing works. So much for watching this video, and I hope you go try to make your own pallet beds this summer.

Folks a simple topic in this video, and while it's, not a magic bullet for plant growth. It can help with more uniform plant growth in your tanks we're talking about replacing your old stock aquarium. Hood, I'm, replacing mine for the first time in six years. I've had this 20 tall. So shedding some light on how replacing your stock aquarium. Hood can help with your plant growth. Now our lights have to travel through the aquarium hood through the water column and down to the plants, though the farther, the light has to travel the less intense. It gets the longer travels in a previous video. I talked about cleaning and checking under the hood, cleaning off calcium deposits and algae buildup on the bottom of your hoods to give light a clean path to get down to your plants. The less obstacles, the better nothing against stock aquarium. Hoods, many of them are great. They are built and made to cater to a wide variety of fish keepers, many of whom are not planted take keepers. But with a planet tank, I have a couple of issues with the stock hood. I have a very small area of acrylic that light can pass through. And I have my flip top in the front, which while great for feeding, the fish doesn't give me very much lighting coverage. So while I'm getting great plant growth toward the back of my tank when I look at some of my foreground plants, well, the growth on these guys, especially the star gani repins, not so much. Another clear sign of lighting deficiency is plants start to get leggy. These plants are trying to reach up to the light because they're not getting quite enough. The micro sword that I planted a couple weeks ago, while it's not dying isn't, really doing anything for me it's just there. Now, of course, these are foreground plants. They do require more intense lighting and that very well could be the case that by the time. This light gets to the bottom of the tank it's just not quite intense enough. However, when I was looking at the dwarf bacopa that I planted the dwarf bacopa that's more toward the back of the tank is growing much better, then the bokova in the front and all the parameters are the same. So while I'm getting good lighting coverage toward the back of the tank I'm, not getting very much lighting coverage toward the front. And that has to do with the hood configuration with the acrylic in the back of the aquarium hood. I had to move my light more toward the back of the tank. Of course, but I wasn't getting a whole lot of coverage where the fliptop is in the front of the aquarium hood. And even so it's still a very small surface area for lights have passed through. You can see the line of light. You can see the lighting coverage on the flip top, and you can see how much lighting coverage I'm getting but I'm, not getting any on the front of that flip top. And that is right over the front of the tank and where the star gani reference and micro sword is. So after six years, it was time to finally replace my aquarium hood. I went with the marineland perfecto glass. Canopy nil is covered by the sticker, but what a name to live up to. And I did a lot of research and try to figure out where folks were buying their replacement aquarium. I didn't see a lot out there. So I went with the good folks at doctors, foster and smith. If you go to fish and go down to aquarium stands and hoods on the lefthand side, you will see hoods and canopies and you'll see the marine land perfecto hood. First aqueon also has a couple different versa tops that you can choose from. I went with the marine lanta. What I loved about the layout on the website is not only do they give you the dimensions of the hood, but they tell you what type of tank it fits. So here is me a 20, hi same as a regular 15 gallon. So I found that very helpful for sizing. And when it came in the mail, the good folks at doctors foster and smith, packed it. So well, it came in an enormous box because of all the bubble wrap. So thank you for the nice job on shipping. You get three pieces, an extender, a handle and your glasstop. Now, what I like about this there's a plastic bracket. So if you ever wanted to pull this glass apart or cut a custom piece of glass to make it a little bit longer, you have the option to pop that off and pop on a new piece of glass. You have a plastic extender that will pop on the back of the glass. If you want full coverage on your tank and not only our rectangular canopies available so are pentagons and euro canopies for those of you with both front tanks. So a lot of options available there. Now just one recommendation not much to the installation, but I'm going to tell myself and make a confession. I put this on backwards first so make sure that the top of this canopy is the side that folds down on the bottom of the canopy that plastic bracket is bound first time. I did this. I put it on backwards, and it wasn't able to lift up the top. Now I will tell you this handle the adhesive that they use is extremely sticky. And I had a hard time prying that off to turn the canopy over and redo it. So just make sure you've got it on the top and the right side of the canopy opens up quite nicely, and the fit was perfect. Now what I liked is the standard configuration without the plastic extender gives you plenty of room for your hang on the back filters, heaters air stones. Now of course, if you want full coverage, you can pop on the extender. I found this also fit perfectly. So a great job with the measurements on the tank. I was able now to move my light up at least more toward the middle of the tank. So while it might not still be strong enough to take care of the star gun eruptions in the micro sword, at least I'm, getting more uniform coverage throughout the tank, the lighting isn't, just simply in the back of the tank. Now very well could be that I need two lights on this tank, we'll have to see how it goes. But I can certainly tell that I'm getting much more uniform, lighting coverage throughout the tank rather than concentrated on the back. So there it is folks that is the marineland perfecto canopy, replacing the old stock aquarium hood that served me well for six years, but again, it's not a magic for plant growth. But at least it's a little trick that can give you a little bit more uniform plant growth by going with an allglass canopy and getting rid of that old stock aquarium.

Hey, what's going on everybody, it's ray, jr, coming live from the mini man cave as you see them step back a little bit. So this is what you see so far, but we'll, take a quick tour of my mini man cave that my wife cheryl helped me with so it's just something to have. So I can come home relax. I've been going to the field for like 25 days. So everything is intact. So nothing really to worry about. You see that's, just a little junk pile. Right here. I forgot where to put this stuff. There that's, my ps4. I don't have a tv in here yet. But like I said, it's, a small little confined area, and it really won't be complete until the day I retire, which is thirty thirty eight months from now is when I dropped my retirement package so a little bit over three years, three years in two months. So I just can't wait for that, but I'll show you a little bit got the world war. I got the world war, hulk, gladiator. I got this last year as you can see there, big boy. And then I got wonder woman, right here over here is just some pictures that we framed up this. One right here is one. Jeff west did for for us me show me his blade charlotte's africa, whistler. And then we got biscuit in there, which I thought was pretty cool. How you did that over here is my table with some of the batman from the onesixth scale got the batmobile. So I got the ben affleck batman, got the michael keaton, there's, no batman. I got him like he's jumping, gliding down. Adam, west's. Batman, right? There got the christian bale and then there's another, dark knight, batman, right there. So a six, and I don't know, there's more so here's, a marvel like a portrait right? There, go ahead and turn the light on. I don't know, if you can see what, yes, it lights up. That's, pretty cool over here. We have heman sighs so collectible statue. And then inside, I got a majority in the mystery number 83, signed by stan lee, larry lieber and joe sena and then thor himself, right? There that's, the onesixth scale, chris hemsworth from the dark world. Then I got my man blade strange tales. Number one, that's, the variant cover and then down here. I got the christopher reeve superman and then a classic superman right here. Yeah, I bought the christopher reeve. I bought him that stand right there. Because of the fact that the stand that I had I bought off ebay. I bought him off ebay. And I didn't check. So the freaking pole that he's supposed to go on was shorter than it what what is supposed to be. So he doesn't fit right on it. So that was my fault, not checking him. But so I went ain't got that stand, maybe I can find the pole or ebay to help out with right here. I got the henry cavill, superman, he's on his base. Stand flying up right here. This sure got me for my birthday last year at the dallas comic con stano sitting on his throne, it like sup. But uh, I forgot to turn the damn lights off when I left for 25 days. So of course, the batteries are drained so I'm going to get that taken care of here's. My 1/6 scale hulk. He comes with two torsos, because he was the luck. Deluxe, a virgin from the age of ultron, there's other torsos, where he's got us to fist up in there like he's about to smash. This is a colossus from the era. Toys, 1/6 scale, kind of like a bootleg knockoff of hot toys. But hey, I got it for a good price from one of my buddies back home so got that so I'm patiently, waiting on the 1:6 scale, gladiator hulk. So this one will be right here and then I'll put the gladiator hulk over there were super standing to figure out where to put superman after that because they'll have all the gladiator geared pretty much just like the statue, except you'll have the like a mallet. And the shield up here we have power girl. Did you see the inside the glass case I got a black widow and captain america trickling on down to wonder, woman and green lantern, wolverine and ant man and then down here I have leonardo, yes, that's, leonardo. And there splitter before the mutagen leonardo before the mutagen. But if you all know, that's the classic version and I have his regular blue, bandanna head sculpture in the box. But if you all know, the ninja turtles, when I first came out, there was all black and white, but all them had red bandanas. So the color ones were to distinguish them later on. And for the kids they made it more kidfriendly than what they were in the comics when they came out black and white right here. It's, just some of my graded bucks overall. I think I counted. I have 32 signature, sir, ebooks and that's, not counting them let's. See I have at cgc right now. I have one two three, four, I have five more. So I have a total of 36, but here's some more books right here. I even have some cbc s, books there in the back, but those are I'll be sitting in to get regraded by cgc. So all my stuff matches. And then all the old cases I'm ascending as well to get the new cases cuz. I guess I'm just crazy like that. I guess ocd all my stuff has got a match. So I think I have like 120 greater books, cgc books and not counting, I have 1 2, 3, 4 5, 6, 7, 8 9 10, 11 of 12, cbc, cbc s, books. So, but all in all folks folks that is the man cave I'll do a little spin around again. So you see statue. Well portrait one case I got to get another case because I got a couple more things coming in there's. The batman, the batman in the batmobile, the hulk colossus thanos. The superman like I said, power, girl cap, black widow. I'm gonna green lantern, wolverine antman and then leonardo. So I had to get the other turtles to complete that set. So you know, how did is you get one? You got to get the wrist. So hope everybody enjoys them a little mini man cave. I just wanted to share with everybody it's, nothing spectacular. But it's enough for me right now, until I can go all out once I retire and then I'll take this stuff. But I like seeing everybody else's stuff because there's some serious collectors out there. And the way that some of their rooms are set up is pretty freakin nice. So, but other than that, I hope everybody enjoys it tell me what you think comment big, shout out to all the youtube subscribers big, shout out to all the cumberland attics members, shout out to the my warriors lords, the long box king of the golden state.

Here we have a small set of primitive corner cabinets. They have fantastic patina. Look at the tops of them, which are not identical they're, very folksy, like they were done.

Hey, guys, dave northeast edible we're, keeping on with our pruning series here and we're looking at at this. This apple tree here it's got a kind of a funky shape, but the the best part of it is still on the ground, hasn't tipped over. So let me let's walk you through what what happened with this tree. You can see right here. You had a big branch of hollow in the middle of it that was pruned off a couple years back. And they that had to be pruned off, because this tree would have tipped over had enough in pruned off. It would either fell off or and brought the whole tree down with it or just got just rotted off so and attracted insects and whatnot. So best to make that cut when you can before you, you actually physically in jeopardy of losing the tree, but you can see that's a big branch over here to the right this tree is heavily tilted to the right and it's got only smaller branches over here on the left. So that that had to be cut that had to be trimmed down, either one that treat that branch or this other branch over here is this big one here, obviously that one looks real nice and healthy there's, ton of education. Ton of fruit on that. This is actually part of that branch, ton, a ton of fruit. You can see ton of fruit there, and that one looks like it was rotted out. So that was that was definitely the right call there what you might want to do with this tree. You might have to stake this thing. And we did a couple videos back in a while back with staking trees, but basically run a line this way stake it in over here somewhere on the ground and just anchor that tree up from falling. You can also put like a board, basically run from the top of that crotch down to the ground here about a 45 angle and that'll that'll prop up the tree as well. So one of those options, if this thing tilts it any farther, you can see looks like there's, some good root systems in there. Obviously this is a healthy tree, and it has some bigger, but just wasn't growing at the right right? Right angle the tree was disproportionate. So you always want to take a look make sure you have to make the cuts when the cuts are needed and don't, wait until your trees tipping over to do that. So give north east edible, stay tuned for more pruning videos, just like this and.

Alright as requested we're going to do a cookie cutter patch here today. Now, the iirc rc will tell you that on most residential carpets, you should not use a cookie cutter for very good reasons. They are not always the best solution for these small repairs because they're, they don't leave an invisible trail. Sometimes you can, you can see the line depending on the fiber that you're dealing with in my experience, the best carpet fiber to do this type of repair with a cookie cutter. That is is on a frisée. This carpet is not quite that frizzy. It probably will have some noticeability if you will when I'm done. This is a hightraffic area in an apartment and the piece of carpet that we're putting in its place is brand new. So there's gonna be some what it's gonna be somewhat noticeable. And you've got to tell your customers that you've got to give them disclaimers, never ever ever use a cookie cutter on berber and simply done. You simply lay the the tool over the hole. And I might even before I do that let's see, I might take my my rake here and and try to bring those fibers with the rekt, and then I'm gonna lay the tool over the hole and I'm just going to give it a little spin. So that the blades can find its way down to the secondary backing without a whole lot of pressure. And then you just put all of your weight on this tool and spin, and you spin back and forth until you're, confident it's gone all the way through the carpet and there's your hole. Now when you are patching, we are going to take carpet from the donor from the opposite side, do not get your your donor piece by cutting into the top of this piece of carpet. Come from the backside, I'm gonna pull I'm going to cut that piece out and we'll start from there. All right, you can see. I cut the the perfect circle out. And then I cut from the backside of the donor piece, another perfect circle and it's gonna fit perfectly you want to make sure that your grain is going in the right way and do a dry fit. In other words, I'm gonna put the camera down here in a second and play with this piece of carpet to dry fit it in to make sure that I'm getting the best fit before I apply glue. You can also see that I've already applied tape. So I need to glue that tape in, but then I'm going to dry fit this. And and then we'll go from there. So to give you an idea for the glue, just like before I'm going to stick my glue gun underneath here and glue. This tape all the way around underneath. So basically, you're gluing the tape to the carpet by applying a bead of glue on the inside under the carpet, all the way around so I'm gonna do that and then we'll we'll dry fit and finish this job. So there's, the dry fit. And just like I said before, I began you're gonna see this because this is a hightraffic area, the carpet around. It is dirty and compressed. And the fibers of the new piece are brand new and fully erect. And so until this piece gets worked in you're gonna notice it. So I always show my customer this before I go any further. So they understand what to expect. So I need to pull this out, and then I'm gonna apply my glue around the edges and permanently affix that piece of carpet in. And and using my tractor to blend the fibers. Second so that's, the finished product I'm gonna play with it a little bit with my rake to make sure that all these fibers blend as best they can. But again, nothing's gonna help this until the carpet around. It gets cleaned. And in time, this should be a more invisible repair, especially after the cleaning, but that's, it that's, permanent, it's, not coming up making vacuum. They can clean that's solid and 40 seconds after I'm done done again. What have we learned here? Loose dents loose fibers are better than dense fibers. When it comes to doing this type of patch, four days of the most forgiving never ever do this type of repair on any kind of berber that's. It fellas.

Moving House and Packing

Hi my name is justin anthem and welcome to north american tv as I'm sure you already know, there's a lot at stake when moving your valuable possessions memories and the money that you'll be spending all come to mind when planning your big day, why most moves go, smoothly accidents do occur where items may be lost or damaged while the moving company is liable for those lost or damaged goods. There are different levels of liability related to your mover. You choose the level of liability by selecting a valuation coverage in this video. We will outline different valuation options as well as some action items that may limit your movers liability. So what are your options when it comes to valuation and limiting your movers liability? Well, you have to the first option known as full value protection. If you opt for full value protection, your mover is responsible for the replacement value of lost or damaged items that are unable to be repaired. This means that if any item is lost or damaged during the moving process, your mover will offer to do one of the following for each item. Number one repair the item number two replaced with a similar item, or number three make a cash settlement for the cost to repair or the current market. Replacement value, it's important to know that under this option movers limit their liability to damage their lost articles of extraordinary value. Unless you notify, the mover in writing on the shipping documents of each high value item. An article of extraordinary value is one that exceeds one hundred dollars per pound. If you want to go with the less comprehensive liability coverage, you can choose the second option known as released value. Although this coverage is offered at no expense. Its protection is minimal under this option. The mover is only liable for no more than 60 cents per pound per article. Therefore you are only compensated based on the way to your item and not its value it's crucial to note that if you do not waive full value coverage, federal regulations require them over to provide full value protection, and you will be billed for the amount of that coverage. So now that you know about your two coverage options, it's time to discuss some actions that may help limit your movers liability action. Number one packing, dangerous, perishable or hazardous items without your movers knowledge. Packing items that fall under these categories are ultimately your responsibility and are not covered under any type of valuation coverage, be sure to check with your moving company, if you're not clear, what constitutes a dangerous perishable or hazardous item action. Number two, packing your own boxes if you don't pack them correctly and your items end up broken, it'll, be harder to establish a claim against the mover. If you insist on packing your own boxes, make sure you do some research on how to properly pack items, especially unusually shaped and fragile items. You should also purchase new boxes, appropriate for the items to be packed and note, any damaged boxes on the delivery documents in order to establish the movers liability action. Number three, choosing released value coverage. When your items are worth more than 60 cents per pound per article, although damages are usually rare it's better to be safe than sorry. When it comes to moving your items when you know, your valuables are worth more than 60 cents per pound, save yourself the hassle and go with full value protection. And lastly, action item number for not notifying. Your mover in writing about articles of extraordinary value without notifying, your mover. They will have limited responsibility when it comes to covering these particular items. If you want to be sure to receive the proper coverage, tell them in writing now that you know what to avoid when it comes to liability coverage and the two options that are available to you. You can make smarter decisions when it comes to protecting your possessions throughout your move. Thanks for watching with north american tv. I'm, justin, um thumb, wishing you a safe and easy move.

I'm, joel garner the owner and operator of joel's carnivorous plants. And this video is to explain and describe the growth cycle of the venus flytrap. So most penis fly traps that are that are bought and sold in the united states are being grown in tissue culture, they're, not actually being grown from seed. And this changes the way they grow a little bit the the venus flytrap. When it when it grows from seed, it terminates from seed, and it doesn't need to be cold stratified like some of the carnivorous clients do it can just be planted in the pot with wet moss given good sunlight. And typically though they'll germinate from that when they first start growing, they make a kind of short lance shaped leaf it's, a juvenile leaf that the venus flytraps have. And they continue to make this pretty much up until the time that they experience their first dormancy. Once they experience their first dormancy. They then begin to make winter shaped leaves winter shaped leaves are short, heartshaped leaves with small traps. The traps often cannot function. They can't close, or if they can close, they will not digest anything. And they actually look kind of like this. You can look. This is a heart shaped leaf. And the winter leaves look kind of like that, except smaller and often the traps or even proportionately smaller compared to the leaf. Then this is after they make that kind of a leaf, which they'll do when they're they're dormant. They then begin to make spring leaves spring leaves. Look like this. You most venus, flytraps make their largest traps and leaves during the summer time. This particular clone the b52 actually makes its largest traps and leaves ordinarily in august and september, which is not how most inspire traps are and often what you'll notice when your plant is transitioning from the tall, erect summer leaves to the shorter prostrate thement fall leaves without have an example of here, but they hug the ground kind of like the spring ones and they're just shorter. And thing is that it looks like the plant is getting smaller, shedding its bigger leaves and only growing smaller ones, it's, not actually dying it's actually doing is that the rhizome under the the moss is actually beginning to swell like a potato is swelling with nutrients and carbohydrates. And the plant is actually getting ready for its winter dormancy. So during the whole fall season, this rhizome swells underground. So the plant looks visibly smaller in the fall than in the summer, but actually, there's more plant mass underground that you can't see unless you dig it up and that's what it uses to save for for the coming spring. When winter ends because venus, flytraps are actually not tropical plants. They come from north carolina natively. And they experience slightly cold winters that often go down to about 20 degrees fahrenheit and that's a normal thing for it to experience when it's in its winter dormancy and like many other plants, they grow fall or spring to fall and go dormant in the.

Today is going to be the second part of a series on making on how to wire these motives for shop tools, or any other purpose, really and want to focus today on how to change the direction of rotation and perhaps it's that the way you have the motor mounted, you need to have it spin in the opposite direction. For example, like in my lathe, I want to be able to run either forward or reverse by flipping the switch. And so that option is right there at my fingertips, and you need to know how to wire in order to make that happen. And I also want to show you how to identify the start of winding. Since I didn't show you that in the first episode one more thing because the dc motor is going to be a large part of my speed control video, which I believe is coming next I'm going to save the wiring of this motor for that episode and you'll see sort of a quick and dirty way to wire this the cheapest option, but not ideal. And that was really what I was describing in the first episode. And then I'll also show you the dc, speed controller and the wiring I have here for my potentiometer, my forward and reverse switches and everything that's going on here in the lathe. So that one's going to be really involved and we're going to save that for the speed control video in that video, I will talk about speed control for all the motors, though, since we've got some unfinished business with this guy, I think we'll start with this one previously I'd showed you how to figure out which windings or which wires had continuity. But I didn't tell you how to figure out which winding was to start winding this motor has multiple windings in it. So that it can be wired for different speeds. Now the way I figured out what these speeds were is, I took a tack on there going out here. And I just measured the speed, but as far as the names of the different winding. I found that online. So I looked up the model of this washing machine motor. And then said that there was a setting for high extra low and low and that's how I was able to figure out that what these names were called, but the speeds were determined using this guy. Alright? So that's a little update from part one. But the other thing is, how do you know which one of these is the start winding as opposed to all the other ones, which are run. What you need to do is break back out the multimeter we're going to set our multimeter to measure ohms. So you're going to see it bounce around is it auto range is to figure out what the own reading is let's start with the one that I know it to start winding, which is yellow and black. But obviously it doesn't matter where you start so it's bouncing around. And you can see it says, seven it's about seven ohms now, I'm going to go to the high speed winding, which is white and blue and it's bouncing around a little bit. And it settles on two ohms. So you can see there's a huge difference in the resistance between 2 ohms, which is what we just read. And as it auto ranges, knowledge, reading seven ohms and that's. The major difference, the start winding has a thinner wire and has a higher resistance. And so it's going to give you a higher reading there. Now we can check the other ones just to increase your confidence here, we're going to go white and purple y. And purple is the low speed winding give it a moment to get into subtle. And you can see that one's also 2 ohms. And then we have white and orange and that's settling around twoandahalf own. This is a method that you need to use to figure which one is to start wanting. And the starter winding will have the capacitor. But we talked about that in part one that should get you fired up here. I've already wired it. The way it was wired in the previous video, except one thing I have added this momentary switch. So this is one of those switches that's only engaged when you're holding it it's got a spring underneath that pushes it back out. What I did is I put that in line with the starter onee so that you can see what happens if you have them problems with your capacitor or order motor is humming, but not spinning you don't know why let me show you what it looks like. So I want to plug this in. You can hear it humming right now. Here's the other interesting thing. So the start of one and gives it that kick start that you just saw me do manually. Then once the centrifugal switch kicks in it'll open that circuit it's important for that centrifugal switch to work, because their starter winding has very thin wire and it's, not designed to operate for a long time. What I want to show you now is that it's, the start of winding that determines the direction as you saw, I kicked it to the left or to the right, and it went clockwise, but we can do that in the opposite direction as well. Now with the momentary switch you'll, see that I can temporarily engage the starter whining, and that will give it a kickstart I'll, remove the momentary switch and wire this like it was before so that we can compare the rotation first let's fire, it up and see what it does on its own. Now, this is wired exactly how we wired it in the first video. And so that was counterclockwise and you're going to kick yourself when you see how easy this is all I did was swish. The leads which one was on black. And which one is on yellow that's electromagnetism for you this motor here, I showed the label in the first video. But the one thing I really wanted to point out is this label is damaged. But there used to be information here about not only which way to wire the motor, but how to wire it so tojiko reverse the direction. This is used to say that you would switch the black lead and the red lead. So basically what it does is it switches the polarity of the starter winding, and that will cause the motor to kick start in the opposite direction direction from the way it was set up initially here you can see there's a black wire that's mounted to this terminal. And that terminal there that little plug sticking out is where you would normally wire your wire from the wall. And then this one is the same way you've got the red terminal here. And then you've got that other plug and that's going to be the other lead for going to the wall, but I'll fire this up. So you can see its rotation as it is. Alright, we're all wired up and let's. See what we got. Now we'll be counterclockwise. Okay, let's switch. It up. Okay, the leads have been reversed as you can see the black now leads to the opposite side and the red same thing. So I'm going to get this wired back up, just like before no need to show you that, and then we'll see how it's been. And as you can see now, it's clockwise, let's move on to the next one we're, ready to fire up this universal motor. Now, your cf got alligator clips here on the side. Now that's just a whole wire in place, because I've switched these wires to four now, what we need to do in order to get this to switch directions is we need to flip the polarity of the rotor relative to the stator just wire that's leading to the brush here, if you disconnect that wire and wire it to the other brush and vice versa, that will flip the polarity of the rotor and you'll get the opposite direction rotation. You can't, see it very well on this motor. And I try to take a shot from the inside, but it's really dark. So I've got this other motor, which I'll use just to explain a little better what's going on. You can see the commutator there. And then these are your brushes so that's, a like a block of carbon in there that's got springs behind it. And so as those brushes rub against the commutator, they wear down, but that's also what's creating the polarity of the rotor as far as make creating that magnetic field. But if you switch that then that's going to cause the motor to spin in the other direction and that's the focus of this video, so I'm, literally in this motor kind of disconnect, this wire and this wire and flip them and put them on the other side. But first I'll plug it up like this so that you can see what direction it rotates. Now I am going to be using this harbor, freight speed controller just to these vacuum motors, run it, ridiculously high speeds. And I want to use this just to get the speed down and make it a little easier to see which direction is spinning. I don't recommend this as a speed controller. But this is my second one. The first one that knob broke off. And then it just stopped working all together, again, it's cheap harbor, freight tools. I only bought another one actually for demonstration purposes like this. It does give you just barely sup. I mean, I hate to even call it speed control, but it does give you. It does allow you to add a lot of resistance to the lawn and reduce the speed. But anyway, in part, three I'll talk more about how this works, what kind of pros and cons. They are and some other options that I think are better better all right. Fire it up right now. I've got it set to variable speed, there's, an option for full speed to just let all the power go through. It looks like I'm. Plugged in so let's fire. It up as you can see it's going town, a clockwise I'm using two wires, because these individual wires are rated to handle the kind of amperage that this motor can draw and blowing to run it for a few seconds, but that's, just a better way to do it. So again, we've now flipped the wires to the brushes and let's see what up, and you can see it's going clockwise. This guy comes out of a wood chipper. And we talked about this induction motor in part one. And you saw me wire it. So I don't need to wire it again, because this one can't be reversed. The starter winding is fully wired on the inside. And so you don't have access to it from the outside to reverse its polarity if you wanted to open the body and dig those wires out somebody may want to do that. But in general, I would say that this one is not reversible. So a couple of final comments, several people have asked about where I'll find all these motors. And that one, for example, comes from a pool pump. And the short answer is just on the side of the road. I don't go dumpster diving out, really even go hunting for them. I just pay attention and take my time on the way to work. And on my way home, I don't take extra roads or anything like that. And and this is what I see. So I think if you now that you're aware of it, you'll start paying attention and you'll, see, how many things people really throw away the washing machine motors and dryers are the ones I see the most are the ones I see very often that are the most useful, the universal motor that comes out of the vacuum. I see these guys at least once a week week, that's another washing machine motor they're. The treadmill motors are harder to find. And I have on occasion check something like local listings and even craigslist, which is a much larger listening to see what people are giving away. And because they just want somebody to haul it off, and they don't know, what's wrong with it. I'd like to know what you guys are finding. This is a pretty representative sample of the type of motors. I find most often, but I'd be curious to find out to know what kind of things are you guys finding there are a few questions that I think having a little bit better understanding of how the motor itself functions would answer your question so I'm going to post a couple videos in the description. One is an older video or two of them. Rather are older videos from the 60 s1 is a military video about ac motors. And let me tell you that video is fantastic it's, a great introduction to electromagnetism and how induction motors, dc, motors and universal motors, how they work is even a little section about dc generators and then there's a postapocalyptic inventor. This is a youtuber in germany. He has a short series on motors. Now, most of his videos are about electronics, but he's got like three or four videos that are directly related to motors and they're really good. His videos are great introduction to all the different motor types, their pros and cons. Someone asked me in the comments, which motor type was best for which application. And I don't want to reinvent the wheel. He has done an excellent job of answering exactly that question. So I think if you look in the description, you'll see his videos listed there, and if you go and watch his video, please, let him know that I sent you just put something in the comments that says, hey, jeremy silliman told me to come watch this video, and let him know what you think of his video. And of course, you welcome to ask him questions as well, I'm sure he'd welcome them. So I look forward to hearing some feedback from you guys. And let me know if we have any questions.

Music playing, sounds of amazon, hamilton, morris:. Hello, I'm, hamilton, morris, we're currently boating through flooded forests on our way to meet the mayoruna indians,, a formerly cannibalistic tribe, who use a strange frog derived drug. They call sapo. They use it to give themselves energy before hunting. They use it to abort pregnancies by rubbing these womens' vaginas with it. This venom contains an opioid peptide that's, 100 times stronger than morphine. And some people say that it's psychedelic it doesn't activity. Any of the psychedelic receptors are far as I know, but there's also a lot about the venom. We don't know, the venom produces some kind of a strange effect to make you vomit. And then supposedly you spending the next eight hours in some kind of a daze and wake up feeling fantastic the next day and they're going to ritualistically burn me and rub the frog venom into my wounds and then it's going to produce some sort of a strange effect, I'm, not exactly sure what it's going to do, but we'll find out sounds of amazon. Announcer, offscreen. Thank you for flying with inaudible. Hamilton morris:. I have arrived in tabatinga after days of traveling it's, an impossibly humid rainforest city built by drug traffickers and sandwiched between the borders of colombia and peru, I feel like I'm being gang banged by vegetation, every visible surface is coated with growing plants. The streets are overrun with motorcycles, scooters, and mopeds. I can feel that the jungle is near. I go to the dock where the journey will begin and meet our guide, juan before we exchange a word,. He looked at my long hair and started laughing hysterically. He said, the mayoruna indians are going to think I'm a woman they're going to kidnap me as a wife. Then he repeated the joke a million times during the course of our day, speaking foreign, language, hamilton, morris:. I board a boat,, which is a 30foot long canoe with a wicker awning in the middle. I meet the other crew member,, a man introduced as the captain who will run the boat's small motor. We make a quick stop to pick up a giant block of filthy frozen river water. The ice block is dragged out of the freezer through a heap of bloody gutted, catfish the captain then proceeds to smash up the ice blocks with the rusty machete and throw the chunks into a couple of styrofoam coolers, which will hold our minuscule food supply. Juan says, the ice will last six days,, but that seems totally impossible we're on the amazon river right now, we're still on the border of peru,, brazil, and colombia with columbia. This way, brazil, this way, and peru that way because of it's proximity to colombia and peru, tabatinga has become one of the main entry points for cocaine, traffickers into brazil, I'm told the chance of us encountering cocaine being shuttled around is not too low. The rainy season is when the amazon river swells over the land and life hemorrhages out of everything in sight. There are trees growing on trees, ants, crawling on ants, and penis, fish swimming up the urethra of other penis, fish it's exhausting to watch in order to save time,. We take a detour through the flooded jungle. Our crew consists of juan in front with the machete,, the captain in the back motoring us, around, and alex who is in charge of security? Should we run into any hostile drug traffickers? But that's sort of something that hasn't been discussed in too much detail at this point,. I guess it's going to be three days up river each night we're going to stay on the side of the river in some sort of a shack. And then we find the mayoruna speaking foreign language, hamilton morris:, the sun sets. And we dock at the home of some strangers, the river surrounds their home and reaches up to their doorstep. Apparently, families living on the river are obliged to take in travelers, speaking foreign, language, hamilton morris:. Here we are on the banks of the javari river. This is where we're going to be spending the night tonight. These are our hammocks, complete with mosquitoproof netting there's, a very nice view of the river. Here is the bathroom. It consists of a board with two holes cut in it I'm, not exactly even sure what to do with it or what it means. I just peed into the hole that had the most pee surrounding it. This seems like a pretty authentic amazon experience. I like this dog, I think he likes me night comes and our hosts cook us a chicken meal, I'm ready to eat. Some chicken, get some fitful sleep,. And then spend another day on the boat, speaking foreign, language, hamilton, morris:, there's, definitely mosquitoes inside my tent. I can, like,, hear them buzzing next to my face as I was sleeping, but it was too dark to do anything it's ten in the morning right now last night we stayed at someone's house. And there was a big debate about whether it was ok to bathe, because the bathing water was right next to the peeing and shitting water. And there really didn't even seem to be any reason to bathe because it's only the second day, I didn't feel the need. But a lot of other people in our crew decided that it was hot, and they would sleep better after they washed their hair around 11:00 in the morning. We stop for a bite to eat. Alex stabs open, a can of winners with a giant chrome hunting knife. I eat a few and they taste like wet toilet paper every time we stop for someone to pee, flocks of majestic yellow, butterflies, swarm around us, I'm going to go pee into this flock of butterflies right now. Here we are in another flooded, forest region, it's, pretty spectacular actually we're just floating on the tree tops we're floating halfway up a forest. The river is, like, sshaped. But since it's, the rainy season, we're able to cut through sections of forest that have flooded. And this isn't normally a river it's only a river, six months of the year, or maybe even less, but we're just floating by the top of a tree. It's, like,, very strange around noon. I have to shit off the side of the boat while everyone films me,. Not fun. I was definitely poisoned many times over by last night's chicken dinner. I sincerely fear that I may shit my only pair of pants. I recently learned that we were on this expedition, illegally funai,, the brazilian agency dedicated to indian affairs, patrols. These waters, looking for unlicensed groups like ours who are trying to contact the indians. Juan also tells me the amazon is full of creatures. Scientists know nothing about once while deep in the jungle,, he encountered a fur covered beast with only one eye him and the beast exchanged a glance. And as a result, juan suffered a five month long fever. I had been smoking jwh018laced cigarettes and was too high to be skeptical. So instead,, I opted for extreme fear. The sight of funai will be of plenty to worry about there's, ramped, malaria, and hepatitis epidemics. The waters are infested with piranhas, snakes, and candiru penis, fish,. And the air is filled with biting insects. The homes along the river are becoming further and further apart. And we dock early today with a small family living on the shore, speaking foreign, language, hamilton morris:. The air is vibrating with swarms of mosquitoes. I've never seen anything like this in my life. The insects are impossibly bloodthirsty. And they remove a plug of flesh when they bite in minutes. My hands are covered with bleeding,, swollen, sores, speaking, foreign, language, hamilton, morris:, I'm, just hoping that I don't get bitten too terribly tonight. And that the food doesn't poison me, too severely speaking foreign language, hamilton, morris:, night, falls and the incredible number of bugs, discourages me from bathing. Once again, I lay in my hammock while mosquitoes squeal past my ears, the mosquito net and bug. Spray are only a formality at this point. There is no escape. I wake up totally massacred by bugs. It would be much easier to describe where I don't have mosquito bites. My hair, fingernails, asshole, and the inside of my mouth. We take a polaroid of our host's daughter,, give it to her, and get out of there today,. We are scheduled to arrived at the mayoruna village,, the ancient village of the frog day three,. I still haven't bathed. But I think that's going to change soon because I want to look my best for the mayoruna. I have mosquito bites on every square inch of my body. My neck is just like a necklace of searing pain well,. I don't even know how they were able to target my neck, well, I'm miserable right now. Speaking foreign language, hamilton, morris:, it's been four days since I've bathed, four, incredibly sweaty days, sighs, hamilton, morris:, it's been a long time. Since I've taken off my pants, oh, it's, very cool. It's actually, ice cold, ice cold, male speaker:, help him, inaudible hamilton morris:. We see the mayoruna around midday. They live on top of an orange cliff that juts straight out of the river. Children peer over the edge at us and then run to our boat to carry our bags up the cliff. The clay crumbles under my feet. If I fall, I'm three days from the nearest hospital, oh so it's, actually very refreshing to be here, although it's extremely hot. The mayoruna village is a collection of huts spread across a large. Dusty clearing. The insects are prehistoric sound of bugs, swarming hamilton morris: as of now,. The plan is to go out tonight and catch the frog. And then in the morning after the frog has been caught we'll harvest the secretions and burn me and rub them into my wounds. Growling hamilton morris:, we walk into the hut of our host,. A man named petro. His face is covered in tattoos. He gave himself with a tree thorn needle and black fungus. Ink speaking, foreign language, hamilton, morris:. Juan asks petro, if he thinks I'm a woman petro says, no, juan looks defeated. This is the stick. You can actually see some dried sapo that's, a moldy bread type, smell, definitely speaking, foreign language, hamilton morris:. The chief's son takes me to his pharmacy,, which is a hut stockpiled with a modest supply of antibiotics. Ibuprofen,, aspirin,, neo, ampicillin. I think it's very good. It makes me feel like if I come close to death after my sapo administration,, they will be able to slap me with some ampicillin it's, just nice to see people on top of medicine, it's, good, sighs, hamilton, morris:. I could go for some ice cold lemonade right now here we are outside waiting for the frog to sing, even though it's the rainy season,. It hasn't rained in days. And usually the frog doesn't make any sounds unless it's wet. So we're just waiting. It might be hours and hours and hours before it makes any sound at all. But right now I'd like to just have an ice cream cone, and maybe a cool glass of lemonade sounds of amazon hamilton morris:, a little bit before dawn petro hears the song and calls back to the sapo imitating it's bark, making barking, sounds, hamilton morris:. He runs out of the hut, into the jungle, and out of sight. He returns half an hour later, empty handed it's 5:20 in the morning right now. They just came back out of the woods and said that they didn't hear it after all if it rains, then the frog will sing and we'll go into the woods. But until then,, I will return to my hammock and continue waiting and scratching my bites.

Hello, everyone bonds column here with bonds aquarium. Today's video is about how you can grow your plants to be very large and healthy without using co2, or for any fertilizer. This video is going to be a little shorter than my normal videos because well, really it's a lot easier than you think number one, you want to vacuum your fish tank and change the water about 12 months. Instead of weekly what this does is it leaves nutrients from the fish waste in the water and acts as a fertilizer of sorts. Now doing this, you definitely want to test water a lot more frequently than you would normally do to make sure that there's no ammonia spikes and that your nitrates and nitrites are in check there's, a pretty good chance that you'll have to start off with changing it every two weeks and then go up to three weeks and then to a month. But after a couple months, you should only have to change it once a month or so number two. And I think this one is the most important one. You want to have 2 to 5 watts of lights per gallon in your aquarium. And by that what I mean is multiply the 2 to 5 by the amount of gallons you have in your fish tank. So for example, with my 65 gallon fish tank, I would 130 to 325 watts of light and my specific fish tank, I'm running 200 watts, 50 purple. What a lot of people don't understand about this is that's equivalent watts, not actual one. So if you have an incandescent bulb, then yes, it's actual watt. But if you're using compact fluorescent or led you want to look at the equivalent watts and not the actual power drop and especially for large fish things like this, I would suggest getting led or compact florescent lights. It will end up saving you a lot of money on your electrical bill in the long run, usually compact fluorescent bulbs and led bulbs will have a actual power drop and a equivalent power drop. Now the equivalent power draw is usually like 50 hundred 150. But the actual power drop should be like 5 to 20 watts. And the third and final tip that I have for this video is if you have large and small plants, like I have you want to trim the leaves up taller plants. So that the smaller plants can get light as well. This is very critical. And I've had several plants die because of failure to trim the plants, plus it just makes your fish tank. Look nicer anyway and that's, really all it takes to grow healthy plants, very quickly. This is the method that I've been using for the last year and a half. And I got all these plants back here from a little sniffing probably about couple inches tall and a little clipping of another plant that I have sitting down here at the bottom. If you can see that be sure to like this video, if it helps you out and subscribe to my channel, if you want to see more fish tips than just other fish related videos, I hope you guys enjoyed watching it and.

Get out you choose and achieving here from sydney. Welcome back to my channel, great to connect with you again today, the allimportant topic of how to fold a fitted sheet as we know she folding is only a job for women just kidding. Get on it guys. You will have less wrinkles. You'll have more room in your cupboard you'll have more time in your life for the fun things in your bedroom bed. You can impress your partner make it a game with the kids I'm gonna teach you how to fold a fitted sheet. It doesn't take very long and man. Your couples will look great after that. First thing to do grab your sheet I'm using a single bed sheet, it's time, just because it's a little bit easier to show you what to do king, whatever if you're a couple and you sleep on a double bed sheet, and my suggestion would be to kind of make a bed because sleep sleep makes all the difference in your relationship. Okay? So grab your sheets find the corners so put your hands inside. So you've got two corners one in your right and one in your left hand. And then you want these two tourists to meet like they're kissing at the top you once they press together like that, you want to use one of your hands to hold the other side so that you can flip the sheet over the top of it. So you should wind up with one scene, touching scene behind them. Then with the elastic touching all the way around, you should find that it's the same on the other side. So it is seen in line in that scene. And then you've got pretty much the same situation again. So you've got your right hand in the corner of one and your left hand in the corner of the other. And then you want them to kiss again, pressing the two seats together like that again, if you want to do the same thing that you did last time, so hold the right shape with your left hand. And then flip that one over the top again. So what you would have this time once again, all the elastic together like that, and all four seams should be in line with each other. Hi, do you want to create like an l shape make sure that the elastic is all touching each other, and you should have a pretty good rectangle by the stage and you're almost there. Now, as we know, rectangles are pretty easy to fold just make sure that this corner is securely, tucked in. And you want the other outside edge to be pretty straight as well. Just try again, some really straight edges. It doesn't matter the elastic is you can either in thirds what if the double bed or a kingsize bed, you might want to hold this. Ll shape over first. So you've got one long line. And then you have this stacked women covered you at the same. And oh, my god, you love it. Thank you so much for watching this video, give me a thumbs up and share it like it. Send it to your friends also subscribe. I upload a video every week, and I love to hear your comments all the best with your sheet, folding expedition, that's your next time.

Swimming Pools Spas and Hot Tubs

Hello I'm. Bruce brass on the warehouse manager for new england, spas I'm here to show you today with some examples of a bad cover in a good cover right here. We have brought down a beautiful refurbished spa from new england, spas along with a really bad cover and a really bad lifter. We have a few questions. You should ask yourself to tell you if your cover is functioning properly is your cover torn how's, your cover getting heavy by lifting it. And then falling back down really hard. You can tell that it is getting heavy is your cover sagging or puddling water. These are all signs that your cover is no good and needs to be replaced. You should give us a call at new england, spas or go to a new england, spa calm and get a new cover on order from us. Now there's also cover lifters. You want to take a peek at your cover lifter. You want to make sure that the cover lifter doesn't have any bent pull your foam, isn't taped up rusted screws or loose brackets from the cabinet. Any signs of these means that your cover lifter will need to be replaced, please once again, call us at new england, spas. And we will order you a new one I'm gonna go about showing right now how to remove and replace your damaged cover and put a new one on there. What we like to do is bring up the lifter, take a razor knife and cut the cover in half into two separate somewhat lighter pieces. These can be very heavy, and you could get very seriously injured trying to manage these by yourself. Take the knife, put a slit right down the center seam, try to make sure that the cut was all the way through the material go over to the other side and slice again, this separated your cover into too much lighter manageable pieces. And if need be get someone to assist you in removal of the cover off the hot tub. Okay, now we have the cover off the hot tub. And it is ready to put the new cover on remove the cover from the packaging, because you don't want to use a razor knife during this. You could slit open your brand new cover. Now we have a brand new cover on the hot tub fitted properly. Once again, if you needed to replace your cover lift there, you might want to give us a call. This is a pretty difficult process. And if your screws are rusted, it can be very difficult to remove this off your cabinet and guys that new england, spa doesn't really know how to do this. Well so give us a call, and we can replace your cover your lifter and your bracket set. This is a service we do provide here at new england, spas, ok. Now we have the new cover on the hot tub. As you can see. This cover does fit a lot more snug. And you do have the angles for the water runoff. If you were to decide to keep that old cover on your hot tub, this would be costing you tons of extra money every month enough, extra electricity, steam, escaping and not keeping the heat into the hot tub will cause it to continually run the heater and will cost you a lot of money every month. So definitely a good idea to change your cover now here at new england, spas, we give you the 3 c's of cover care. Number one is always keep your cover clean. Number two is always keep your cover clear. And number three is conditioned. I will go through all those steps right now and show the processes of them clean. We like to spray the cover down with the cleanser. We sell a product called 303 protecting you can saturate the cover with the 303 protectant. Wipe it all in this will get all the grime and dirt off your cover keeping your cover clean from grime and dirt will make sure that the vinyl lasts a very long time and will keep the water repelled from inside. The cover cover. Number 2 is clear, keeping your cover cleared of snow ice water leaves is very important having a buildup of snow on your cover can your cover could not take that snow load in the snow will cause your cover to sink in and puddle water. We sell a product called the snow broom available at new england, spas or at any of our three retail locations. Take the snow broom slide, the cover off as you can see it doesn't cause any damage to this beautiful, vinyl cover using a shovel ray brooms. You could pop a hole in your cover before, you know, it'll be no good and weigh 10,000 pounds all over again. Number three is conditioned. We like to use this product once again, as a conditioner, if your cover is not shiny and dull, that means the conditioner is gone. And you need to add some more to it simply spray. The conditioner all over your hot tub, saturate it. Wipe it in you should condition your cover as much as possible. Not conditioning. Your cover will cause the sun to brittle it and crack in the water will leak in there again. And once again, to cause the to pre prematurely, wear and become heavy once again, I'm bruce from new england, spas. And these are the three c's of cover care, clean, clear and conditioned. Thank you and have a great day.

Come thanksgiving,, cranberries hit tables across the us, usually in sauce form. But these pink super fruits have a long journey before they ever make it to your holiday plate. Odds are your cranberries started here in new england, on an ocean. Spray farm, hi,, I'm, alison carr. And I am a 6th generation cranberry farmer here in massachusetts,. And you are on my family farm, narrator: headquartered in lakeville,, massachusetts, ocean. Spray harvests, 220 billion cranberries. A year cranberries are primarily harvested in the water despite what people think,. They don't grow in water. All year narrator: cranberries begin as vines in wetland fields called a bog in june,. Small pink flowers bloom it's said, the flowers look like a crane, giving the berry its name around late june, the flowers fall off,. And the actual cranberry starts to grow harvesting happens between september and october, when the bogs are filled with a couple inches of water, a berrypicking machine drives into the bog, and churns up the vines to knock the berries off because cranberries have four air pockets inside,. They float to the surface of the water. We try to use mother nature as much as we can, and the wind. And in a lot of cases,, the cranberries will be pushed to one area of the bog and that's the area that we use to take the cranberries off narrator:, a couple more inches of water are added to the bog. And this is where you've probably seen images of farmers thighdeep in cranberry water, dressed in waders, farmers maneuver what's called a boom to corral, the berries into one corner of the bog. They then rake all the berries into vacuums that suck them up into the backs of trucks. The trucks are sent off to the ocean, spray processing plants, where they're unloaded, those berries can become one of 1,000 different products ranging from juices, to dried cranberries, to of course, cranberry sauce. Each year, ocean spray facilities produce about 88 million cans of cranberry sauce, and 223 million bottles of juice!. Their products are sold in stores across a hundred different countries. But how do small, familyowned farms in massachusetts, help produce almost 65% of all cranberries sold that's because they're a part of the ocean spray agricultural cooperative started in 1933, today, 700 family farms across the us,, canada and chile,, collectively own the ocean. Spray brand dignan:. The average farm in the cooperative, is just 18 acres. These are small family, farms, typically multigenerations, in fact, more than a quarter of our farms are in their fourth generation or greater narrator: under the cooperative,. The family farms see 100% of the profits from ocean. Spray product sales, dignan:, cooperatives support farmers because ultimately farmers are able to capture a lot more value for their crops. So the value we add through manufacturing and marketing and that blue ocean, spray brand, all of that's going back to the farm rather than going to a middleman or a cpg company narrator:. So you can go back to your cranberrysauceturkeydunking,, knowing, you've supported a coop. Six generations in the making.

Hi and welcome to my playhouse and today, I'm still on vacation and yesterday or the day before that, I cut my hinge over here, I posted that on twitter with spelling errors and everything. But today I want to make up some more room in the garage, or at least try and fix something that I broke a couple of years ago. This thing I have a chop saw thingy here. And I was actually doing a set piece for a short comedy movie film thing. There is two videos on my channel about that might link to those, but in the middle of making some scenery stuff, some set pieces. This source started to smoke and gave up, or it didn't really give up it just sparkled and smoked and well, I thought it would be best to not do any more, and I pull some water on it. So it's, probably really crapped up. But I thought that today I would take it out and see if it has just been sitting here for two years doing taking up space for no reason at all, or if I should really go and throw it up. I didn't pay much for this. I think I paid about 800 kronos for it. I got it on a really good offer, and I've been looking for it since, but the price has gone up on the source it's, a really crappy. This is slide here in denmark it's called her newborn it's the same as harbor freight. You can get some really cheap tools. They are not always the best quality, but I had had this for some years, and it was way outside of warranty. So that couldn't help me, but oh I'll drag it out of here and see if we can what it does. Okay, there's a lot of these pieces in and gets easily. So the really great thing about this sole is opposed it? It can be used as a chop saw it doesn't, go forth and back, but you can take it down, and you can take it further down, and you can knock it in place and then it's down. And you can flip the table around and it's kind of a table saw should move that one out of the way. But there you have it it's it's a table saw like that. And I do believe that I was using it as a table saw when it stopped working. It would be okay, if it would work again, I wouldn't mind. It was okay when it was working. And I just changed the blade on it when it decided to die on me, there's, really only one thing to do try and connect power to it again. See if they're sitting for two or three years has been tainted mine, sam here power on, and it doesn't do anything in this mode. I flipped it around again. I thought this would be the least dangerous way of trying it. So I don't think that's, good it's, not supposed to do that. Yeah, I think that's a nogo might might be a nogo smells. Nice, nice. This is a very cheap tool. It actually comes with spare parts. So you might just open it up, try and check down here. If one of these one of these pieces to transfer the mortise and down to the coils, you open up that one and that one on the other side and we'll go check if they are broken, I have turned it off. Look, great as could be could be bad I'll, check the one on the bottom, hmm, doesn't. Look that bad. Oh, I can actually cannot get the camera into the hole. And you can you can see the motor down there. Did I call it an indian again, ah, crap, it's, a motor. It doesn't, look great. But yeah, it could still be working. We could try and put those five. We can't. Remember what these are called I'm sure you will let me know in the comments, but yeah, we're going to try and put these new ones in see how that goes so a big crop. They go in cool, very nice, little system here, go in and that one on top and titan, cook and I'll do the bottom. Okay, I did the bottom one. And I've connected power. So let's see if it does the same thing, yeah, it's on fire. And I think we have a we have a winner here that one is stun for. I do not think we want to waste any more time on that. Look at this. It has even one of them. It must be down there somewhere. Maybe that has happened before. And why sparkling all over the place? Yeah, the other side is also just gone. Hmm, let's, let's, open up and see what we have inside. I think there are some screws here that I might be able to undo applause. Okay, I had hope that that was just gonna pop up. I was apparently tunisie, huh, I'll have to persuade it. Somehow someone has hidden some screws on the in here, just outside of camera, applause, applause, sure that's going to help. Yeah, truth, doesn't, be good in here, just remove the screws around here and yeah, plastic, because I want my new blade I'm, not gonna give that one up. Thanks winter. Hmmm, this goes the wrong way around doesn't. It I'm really good at buying new tools and forgetting about them in years. So what do we have let's see 16 16 cubic probably 15 months looks very deuce. It could be a 14. Okay and it's probably probably won't go on, oh it's. A 14. The plate goes that way have no idea let's, try maybe not sleep. This is god. Hammer applause, yeah, what the screws that is screwed in the opposite way. And there is my good boy, it's. Another, one of those purchases in lidl I'm, pretty sure that I got it there. And sometimes you can just find these plates, three plates for 89, crona's or 98 cars off of it. So, yeah, one of the blades. Yeah, I was not able to get in here, but it does not look good. I think I'm actually gonna get an opportunity to throw something out this. Yes, how about unity does not come often first a handle or screw on the bottom as well, sneaky bastards electronics. All the cables and tucked october is still good uncle or all this wire. And there is an electronics here for emergency and safety. This box is still good or not thing that can automatically do something we're keeping that. Okay after negotiations, we are also in here, and there are some switches and stuff that I want to have as well. Good big, one there so I'm going to take it apart, some more and throw out the rest. There is some pieces here they're like these finger screws. The I like those I'll, keep those with vault there's. Also, these orange in the screws here, like those too I'll have those and the contacts and the rest goes out. Thank you very much for watching my videos do subscribe to my channel. So that you can see me again, maybe throwing out some other stuff. Hopefully someday have a really nice day bye.

Hi everyone,, I'm, jane. And today, we're going to talk about whether or not you should paint the edges of your canvas. And if so, how to do it. This is a question I get asked a lot. And there really is no specific answer really, it's up to you whether you paint the edges of your canvas. Some artists. will wrap the image around the edges. So that it's a continual piece. When you look at the side, you can still see for example on this one, you might see some of the reflections, and the buildings would continue for me, that's just way too much work. I've done it before and it's. it's, not for me. But a lot of artists do that some artists never paint the edges of their canvas so. all of their paintings,. Look like this on the edge. You can see drips & splatters from the painting that they did or it's just left white. And some artists will paint the edges, a solid color afterwards, either white or black,, which is what I typically do, or a color that is prominent in the background. So, again. There is no right &. No wrong way to to handle that. it's, really up to you but. If you decide you want to paint the edges of the canvas I'm going to show you two ways to do it first I'm going to show you, the wrong way to do it then I'm going to show you the right way to do it here's. One of the first work ups that I did of "a walk in the rain". And since this one isn't perfect, you can see the painting behind it I'm just going to end up painting over this. Anyway, so, I'm going to show you the wrong way to paint the edge on this canvas alright, now, regardless of whether or not you're going to do this the right way or the wrong way, you're gonna take a brush that you're comfortable with. And I suggest that it has a flat edge across the top. like the 1 inch background brush. This is typically what I will use the reason I'm going to use one with a flat edge at the top is because that edge helps us make the line here. Cleanly, so, I'm gonna wet it in the jar. And wipe it off on the edge. If you need to, dab a little bit of the extra water out on a paper, towel,, that's, fine. So I've got some black paint on my palette here and I'm just going to load up with some you don't want globs of it,. You wanna be able to control it, even though we're doing this the wrong way you still don't want too much on there now, by the wrong way,. I mean, you don't want to take the brush like this and just streak down the edge, because do you see what happens? it's really hard to control that? And it gets on the front of your canvas, even if try and go really easily like that, if you push too hard,, it's really easy to get a wobbly line that you feel like you have to keep trying to cover up. and getting some on the front edge of the canvas, even if you do it, this way, it's easy to lose control of the shape of your brush and get it on the front so that's, what I mean by the wrong way we don't do it like this, and we don't do it like this now we're gonna do it the right way? Notice I've got my canvas turned around. So the image is actually facing backwards and that's, because my focus is gonna be on this front line here. I don't want any paint to go past that line. And so if I look at it from the back, I easily control that and I'm going to use my brush. with the flat edge and I'm gonna come at it and put my brush right there. So that the edge is right in line with that now., no matter how hard I push it's, not gonna go past that edge. Even if my brush extends past, it it's, not going to wrap around onto the front of the canvas it's just going as soon as the canvas starts to curve. The paint is gonna stop it's, not going to wrap on there. Once you got the line in the front well defined then you can come back to the the back edge. and kinda wipe at it like that. So I'm gonna show you on this top edge here, where my canvas has got the white in the front so again, I'm going to go flat onto the canvas. And even that edge can extend past it and I'm, just gonna wipe downwards lovely sound of paint wiping onto the canvas watch. Jane make it nice and pretty, get ya a little bit of a different angle. There see how that line is nice and smooth, because that line already exists on the canvas I'm, not trying to draw a line. You can continue all the way down lovely music. As we watch jane look at jane go!!, once you get to the corners, there's, usually a little bit of a fold there. So I'll take the edge of my brush and just kinda run it along the inside of that, fold make sure that there's not a bright white spot peeking out. And then just rotate my canvas and keep going so there's, my painting, with the edges, all painted. And it only took me., maybe about 5 minutes to do. And I didn't have to do any cleanup. I hope that helped answer your question about painting, the edges, if you have any other questions, please leave me a comment below, and let me know and I'll see if I can get to those for you make sure you like, comment and subscribe, I do have a video coming out a little bit later about varnishing, a canvas and I'm going to use this exact painting in that varnish video. So thanks for watching everyone and I'll. See you next time!.

Welcome to kungfu maintenance, here's a shot of the finished repairs on couple holes and some scratches and some wood like material. Now, check out the process. Okay, you kung, fu maintenance, flashlight, video, somewhat that's, a mother, but also, so you might as well give you as much light as I can. But what I have to show you today is a wood finish repair. I've got a couple of small holes here they've been clocked in, but someone could have leveled that off a little bit better to make it run. What I have is a wood, finish repair kit made by doubt, and it comes with different different little with fans, color and just want to match my color as well as I can with the bit of stuff here and it's, basically like a wax that we can just rub on in order to fill the hole, you know, like a tree on there and the rest we can smooth off. And I might go with the little bit darker color here, maybe that'll hide hide it a bit better. Get the top one here. Yeah, I think definitely the top one is the way to go or the darker one is the way to go with this one there we go. And now I'll just use my rag here and clean off the excess and the rest I'll used a little pen tool. This one, I might scrape down a little bit and then go with the the darker finish to finish it off there. There we go. And then I use my fuel here, give it a paint get wet. Clean it up a little, oh, that's, perfect. Okay, beyond that I've got a little steam. I think I really need it. But you know, I've got one for lightwood and one for dark wood, try that oh there's. The light one, dark, one, you can actually be better without the stain that's for the light with now. Wipe it off there. We go let's, finish it off and make it blend in there. We go nice new cabinets. You can really tell the whole was there, unless you really really know where to look right there, that's, great, yeah, that works good for scratches. Also you just go with the scratch actually got something right here unless that's just clean back clean it up first it's, like a little, tiny, tiny, scratch there. Okay, I'll use the darker little deal here. Yeah, just whatever way seems to fill it in there. There we go and I'll just lightly rub. It off that looks really good. I don't think I need to stain it I'll do it just because I think you leave a better finish long term, wise so there's a little bit of stain leave it on for a second and then I'll, just wipe it off blend it in look just like some of the other character parts. So we're, good to go and without using the wood repair kit to make small repairs in cabinets. Thanks for watching kung. Fu maintenance, don't, forget to hit the like button.

Swimming Pools Spas and Hot Tubs

Hi my name is kody white. And I want to review a jacuzzi, j, 375, hot tub, I'm putting this review up, because whenever we were searching, we really couldn't find any very good indepth reviews. And I thought it would be helpful for so I'm gonna kind of try to go over everything that we did as firsttime hot tub owners. First of all, this is the hot tub. We had to order it. And I just wanted to make a note without saying, saying exactly where we got it, or where we shopped it around it's worth the time to try different dealers. Because there was over a thousand dollars difference in the in the price from two different dealers that we went through so I'll back up a little bit and talk about the pad as you can see, you have to have you're gonna have to have a place to put it. And we decided to do a put a concrete pad out here. And if there's ever a good place for a stamped concrete, this is it. So we went ahead and did the dyed concrete that's also stamped. And we had some friends that helped us do that we've got about, I think 2500 dollars in the concrete. So that was, it would probably cost more if we had to pay someone to do the whole thing come on down here. The hot tub is there are three different levels of jacuzzi, really the 200 level. Mm, 400 level when I gets to five also. So, therefore, this is a 375 it's, kind of the upper end of the 300s, which is actually its middle, but it's, really upper because of the size. It has a capacity of five to six people. This is the pro last jacuzzi, hot tub cover, which is the upper end, the most expensive one. We were able to get this is when I found that gave pretty much a 360 degree around. So the hot tub itself whenever we were deciding all hot tubs decided that we wanted something that had a lounger come over here. And look at the lounger, the lounger side of it is where you lay back and it's gonna going to get your legs and your feet. And we had a friend that had one, and it was just I really liked it. So for me that immediately eliminated a lot of possibilities and kind of narrowed it down for us. There were only a couple there was this one, and then the 400level there was one, but it was a little bit bigger and quite a bit more expensive. We went with this one because the jacuzzi had four seats in it. So you have the lounger here, and then you have each corner has its own massaging jets on it. So you really well, this is technically, you can seat up to six people only four people at one time or to get a massage in the corners. We also looked at sundance and sundance had a good mound er. And I heard a lot of good things about sundance. But the filter was in this corner over here on the sundance. So it didn't have you basically gave up one of your massaging chairs. Each one of these each one of these chairs does something different has different jets. So, for instance, this this corner is going to massage your shoulders. More this corner has the jets that are going to massage your lower back that is the deepest chair. So these these two in the front are going to be more for shorter people or children and someone taller here in the deeper chair, that's going to massage your back in your calves. And really what we found is we like all of them so it's, good to kind of move around from each one of the chairs once you have it I'm gonna go ahead and turn on the jets. The jets will run for a twenty minute cycle. One of the comments or reviews that I saw on the jacuzzi site were some of the negatives. They complained about the noise from the pumps and motors and to me, it really isn't that big of a deal, because if you're sitting in it, you can still have a conversation. And it also kind of has a tendency to drown out other noise from outside of the hot tub. I don't see how they could do it any differently, really to have a quieter other than you can get some local aid of insulation that I was told that's more for colder requirements. We ordered the rail separately and the stairs we got those from the dealer that we we bought the hot set for me. I think the the main other thing is the lights. And so I'll also add a video of this at night. So you can kind of get an idea what the lights are, but overall we're happy with it. We've had it for about a month, and you know, the chemicals keeping that I was kind of concerned about balancing the water and that's something you have to do daily. You have to be on top up. But so far, it really haven't been that difficult to keep the numbers in check, and you know, it's going to take time. But all in all, I think this is a good addition to our home. I think the concrete pad is a good addition because it it obviously gives us outdoor space for outdoor furniture for entertaining. You know, it's something that we'll be here for a long time and really help to help our home without bar value. Even if we get rid of the hot tub down the road. One other thing I didn't mention come over here. We had one. We ran the conduit, went ahead and had to have a 240 volt electricity out here. And we ran the conduit under the concrete also to the outdoor plug. So I would have 120 volt outside since we don't have one of those either, but I think that's that's, really all. I can think of right now, I'm happy with it. And I just hope to help it'll last us.

Hi youtube today, I'm going to be doing a video tutorial on how to drain and flush your hot water tank. This procedure should be done at the very minimum once per year. And I actually recommend doing this at least two times a year to ensure that the sediment buildup that occurs in the bottom of the tank is kept to an absolute minimum to ensure the longest tank life as well as maximum efficiency now water, depending on where it comes from inherently will always have a certain degree of dissolved minerals in it and that's measured in parts per million. Now in my local municipality here, our water is on average about 25 parts per million, which is relatively hard. And therefore, the reason why I love to flush out my tank as regularly as frequently sorry as I do. And so generally, what happens is the bottom of the tank, which is usually around where the drain valve is on your tank, it's made out of steel on the bottom. And so in my case, I've got a natural gas water heater that if the sediment layer begins to build up it's, actually reducing the overall capacity in the tank slightly. But more importantly is that it's forming a layer of silt and junk in the bottom that's actually hindering the burners ability to transfer heat efficiently to the water that needs to be heated. Now, if you've got an electric heater, it's, not quite as bad because an electric heater, generally has an element on the bottom, and then another element towards the top of the tank that heats up the water. But nonetheless sediment also builds up on things like that. So draining it occasionally will still at least maintain the capacity of the tank now there's a couple of prep things that we need to do before. We even consider flushing our tank. Oh, and number one is to if you've got a natural gas, hot water, heater to turn the thermostat, all the way down to either off or into the vacation mode here. And what vacation mode is is essentially the lowest setting on the water heater possible. So that when you're draining the water out that it doesn't trip, the thermostat to start to light the burners to start heating, the tankers a tank without water is really bad. If you're really paranoid, you can always go ahead and shut off the gas valve. And then just relate the tank later. But I found out at least on my tank that if I put it into like pilot, lighting mode, or in vacation mode that the thermostat won't trip on in the short time that takes to drain a tank. Oh now, if you've got an electric water heater, you need to make sure that you actually disconnect the power, and that can be accomplished through the breaker panel. If you've got an electric hot, water tank go to the breaker panel or fuse box and disconnect the power by flipping the appropriate breaker to the off position or unscrewing, the fuse that feeds your water here. Next locate, the home's main water, shutoff valve. And you can generally find it before the water meter if you've got a home equipped with one. Now if your home is equipped with dual shutoff valves, rather than shutting off the cold water main valve, you can always cut off the cold water inlet to the hot water tank by flipping the valve above the tank. Now, not every home has a valve on top of the hot water tank. But in my case, mine, my plumber, when they put this in put in this valve xed, we need to locate the actual drain valve on the tank. And generally speaking all drain valves should be located on the lowest portion of the tank. So in my case, it's located, right here once we've located the drain valve we now need to find a suitable place to drain the water. And so in most modern homes, there's a floor, drain, right by the tank, oh, depending on the manufacturer to tank. The drain valve can consist of a valve with the handle on the top like any sort of a garden hose bibb. Or in my case, it's a valve that requires a screwdriver to turn the valve to open and close it. Now, the all should have a standard 3/4 inch threaded garden hose adapter, where you can attach a short length of hose from the drain of the tank to the floor drain. Now, what I'm going to use here is sissy standard garden hose quickconnect let's, screw that on. And then taking a short piece of garden hose that I actually have that's, purposebuilt for breeding tanks kick that on. And then pop the lid off by four drain cover and then just stick the hose towards dream. Now you can open the valve if you've got one of the valves to have a handle, or in my case, I'm using a flat, bladed screwdriver, I'm just going to open that right up. So, as you can see got some water getting out of my tank now now here's a quick service tip guys. Now the tank I've got here is a 50 gallon, hot water tank, which is a fair bit of hot water. Now, rather than me just shutting off the water valve and turning the thermostat to off, and then pouring all this perfectly usable. Hot water down the drain. I actually set the thermostat off about an hour ago and got my family, ah, to do the dishes and laundry and take a shower. So that all the hot water inside my tank is being utilized. Now we can walk away from our hot water tank and let it drain for probably the next 20 minutes or so. And we can actually speed up the process by opening up some hot water valves in the upper floors to allow air into the system. I'm just going to open up the hot water side of my valve on my main floor, bathroom to let the air into the hot side. You can do the same for the upstairs, hot water valve. Now, my hot water tanks been training for roughly about ten minutes. So I'm, assuming now that the level in the hot water tank is below the pressure relief valve introduce more air in tomorrow tank to drain it quicker by opening up the relief valve. You might get a few rogue drops coming out. So you might want to have a pan or a rags to catch those straggling water drops. And so the other thing that you guys want to pay attention to is the free movement of the pressure relief valve, it should move smoothly and not be difficult from the cuff. If it is, chances are the spout could be corroded or stuck and not operate properly in the event that the pressure builds up in the tank, too excessively, such as it. So the tank actually took over 35 minutes to completely drain with all my valves in the upper floors open, including the pressure relief valve. So it took a little bit longer than what I originally remembered it to me. But nonetheless, there is absolutely no more water coming over the system. So what we're going to do is close the pressure relief valve and then we're going to introduce water from the main water inlet into the tank with the drain valve still open, because where the water enters the tank through the dip tube, it actually reaches to the bottom to around this level here. And so the idea is that when we turn on the water it's going to kind of blast, the bottle, the tank with some water we're going to let that run out to a catch or break up any sediment move on the tank, go ahead and just open us up. And then when I hear water come roll the tank again, I'll let it drain out. And then when it stops I'm going to repeat this process about two or few more times, we can sort of hear it slowing down so close it. So once we've drained our tank of any water that was introduced from those few short bursts with fresh water to loosen up the remaining sediment in the bottom of our tank, we can go ahead and close the tanks and drain petcock valve double check that the pressure relief valve is completely closed by just snapping it shut with the gas valve still in the pilot or vacation mode, or if you're an electric tank to power off, we can go ahead and turn on the hot water tank cold water valve and let the tank fill up with fresh water with the hot water valve open all your fixtures. The air will begin to get expelled out of the tank and lines as water begins to refills in the system. It can take up to five minutes before you actually see any water coming out. I want to get the floor of each of the fixtures allow the water to run for approximately three to four minutes to ensure that all the air traffic to the tank and from the system once there's, no more, steady course, butters coming home. We can go ahead and shut the water off. Now for those wondering, how much sediment could possibly build up in a hot water tank. I flush my tank on average two to three times a year. And my hot water tank is 15 years old with water that's about 25 parts per million as you can see in my white sacred table, the second floor of my home after purging the lines of the tank of any air that this perfectly clean tub is now covered in its brown, rusty sort of grit in the water. Once our tank has filled up with water. And we don't see any obvious leaks from our drain petcock or anything like that. We can go ahead and turn the thermostat control back to the warm setting that it was once set at my actual my hot water tank thermostat was actually set at this mark, one notch above warm and that's optimal to not scold your hands, too badly on the full hot setting on your taps, but still hot enough to run your dishwasher and washing machine properly. It is generally not recommended to go beyond sort of this large marking or on some thermostats. It says, hot wore very hot, because the water can be so hot that it's scalding and it's also really hard on the water heater because it's, well, it's always running on max power to maintain that extreme temperature, which is often not needed. So we'll, just dial it back to around this mark here. Now once your hot water tank has been completely filled with water, where all the air has been purged from the tank as well as the water lines. Go ahead and turn the power back on if you're running an electric water, heater or a gaselectric hybrid water. This does not apply if you're running a gas only water tank. Now here's a service tip that I learned from an experienced plumber that for older hot water tanks that occasionally seem to have inconsistent hot water or the hot water doesn't. The tank doesn't seem to fire up is to take this thermostat, knob and turn it back and forth between very hot and sort of the low setting here, not quite to vacation. Because you want to, you know, just move the thermostat around such that you're sort of moving or flexing that bimetallic strip that is inside the hot water tank that senses when to turn on the gas to light, the burners. The reason why is that as the tank ages, such as in my tanks case, that's, 15 years old that that bimetallic sensing strip begins to sort of stick and bind. And they say that when you turn this thermostat valve back and forth that it helps sort of free that up, which can potentially buy you a couple years, more life of your tank, if it's on its last legs so turn it back and forth and then set it back to where you would normally keep your tank temperature at so let's, clean up when you go ahead and put our four drain cover back on and then disconnect, but connect and just making sure that there's, no, excessive dripping. And if there is, you can go ahead and just tighten that drain valve a little bit tighter also inspect the pressure relief valve, making sure that it's not leaking any water after you've closed. It cuz sometimes when they get old, they begin to leak so it's, nice and dry. So as you can see performing a hot water tank drain and fill and flush isn't overly difficult just takes a little bit of time for all the water to drain out of the tank with a few short bursts of fresh water with the drain valve still open will help remove that excess of sediment that didn't get drained out the first time. So there you have it guys if you liked my video, consider giving me a thumbs up if you have any questions or comments, leave them below in the video.

Hey, y'all welcome back to my channel. Today, I am going to be trading spaces with mandy today. Mandy is going to be coming over to my house. And she is going to be taking care of the space that you all know that I have been complaining about and trying to get some help with over the last couple of months. If you watch my cleaning videos, you know, I'm always talking about how I don't know what to do with my entryway table. But today she is gonna come over and fix it and I'm so excited. And then after she leaves here, we're gonna head on over to her house, and we are going to actually redo her dining room table. So I'm excited to see what happens. But first we have to go shopping, make sure you when you get done watching my video you check out mandy's video down in the description box below the suite. So this is what it looks like in mandy's dining room. Now we are just gonna change up the dining room table. I think it already looks beautiful. But she said, she's had it like this for three or four years and she's just ready for a change change. The first thing I picked up was this galvanized tray. It was actually the first thing that I even saw on the shelf. And I was like, oh my gosh, this would be absolutely perfect. Then I saw this. And as soon as I saw this, I was like mandy, it had mandy's name written all over it, especially with the straps on it. I said, I have to get this. I knew I needed a little something more to sit on the tray. So I did find this, and I think it's gonna work out perfectly after that. I knew I needed some greenery. So I went ahead and grabbed these hydrangeas, and I think they're gonna be perfect. But here is the finished product, and I absolutely loved the way it turned out it looks. So pretty. Thank you guys so much for watching this video. I really hoped you enjoyed it. I know, I did don't forget to go check out manny's. Video I'll have the link in the description box below, and she will be redoing this table. And I just want you guys to see how good it turned out.

Hello, my name is greg cool. The purpose of the short presentation is to talk about some of the key components found in a solar pv system and to show how gridtied systems are different from offgrid ones. Let's start by looking at a gridtied system. A gridtied system is less complex than an offgrid one as more commonly seen since it has fewer components and is generally less expensive. For example, there are usually no batteries in gridtied systems. In essence, the grid is your battery energy is created when the sun is shining, it is collected by the solar panels or modules. And then it flows to the inverter, the inverter converts the dc electricity into ac electricity, which then moves this service panel and is used in your home or business any extra energy that is not used flows to the meter its measured. And then it goes out to the grid where it is used by your neighbors in alberta. You receive a credit for the power you send to the grid if you pay five cents per kilowatt hour, then you will receive five cents for each kilowatt hour produced at night when your modules are not producing power. Any electricity needed is pulled from the grid if there's a big storm. And the grid goes down, your system will also go down, and you will not be able to produce power unless your system is equipped with an optional secure power supply. The secure power supply is designed to power a single outlet connected to the inverter. But of course, this only works during the day when the sun is shining grid, tied inverter 'z were originally designed to shutdown when the grid stopped supplying power. This was done to protect the safety of anyone working to repair the power lines. Now look at a typical offgrid system. OffGrid systems are more complex since the energy is stored and backup power is often incorporated into the system. There are a number of different configurations and designs. Provide one example here, starting with the solar array energy is created. And it flows from the array into a charge controller, the charge controller regulates the energy so that the battery is charged without causing damage the energy then flows from the battery to the inverter or the dc power is converted to ac power from there. It goes to your service panel is now available for your electrical devices at night when your modules are not producing power. Any electricity needed is pulled from the battery. If the grid goes down, well your unaffected. However, what happens if a big storm blows in? And there isn't enough sunlight to charge your batteries, well, you're going to need some kind of backup power. There are many backup options. One common energy source used as gas generators. The generator kicks in when the lowvoltage disconnect within the inverter determines that the battery charge is getting low the generator then generates ac electricity that flows to the service panel and also recharges the batteries wind and micro hydro are green options for backup power. Wind generators work. Well, in conjunction with solar, you've probably noticed that when the sun disappears behind the storm clouds, it tends to get pretty windy. Nevertheless, the wind or water resource needs to be present. And in many cases, it's not available in sufficient amounts to act as a backup power supply. I the short presentation helps you to understand the key components found in many solar pv systems and that it has also shown you how a gridtied system is different from an offgrid system. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact me at the email address provided. Thank you.

Christ fucking piece of fucking shit. I need your help really bad people. Um, I just had this. I was cleaning up, didn't break my piece or anything, but it tipped over and fell down like it went like something mad just mysteriously I'm going. I don't know how it didn't break, but it fell bit up on a two and a half feet. It went like this off. And when it fell down, it must have hit the nail hit first. And I got the nail off, but I can't get this thing out of there, I'm, not gonna push it hard and break it. But I heated the nail up and the water already got inside of here. Disgust, it's all black that's probably ruined. I guess, I'll know, um, the heat from the torch heat this up and pull this right off. Instantly I'll know how hot you're supposed to heat the glass. I don't want to ruin it. I just took towards you went, ran it across it a few times and heard a lot of crackling. I guess I wanted those the water we're not, but I tried pulling it off. And it wouldn't come off. So I just tried to clean it out. I just cleaned it out and was been running under the hot water thinking, maybe that would have softened it up and that's still won't. It won't even budge. It won't even turn and I'm. If you guys know how to get jammed off glass out of there, can you please tell me what to do si si? So you can solder there, please help me get this thing out of there. So I can clean this thing. I don't.

Welcome to megapath presents I'm, ronnie hayes. And today, let's talk about what amc is up to regarding the future of the walking dead and rick grimes exit. Now before we jump into this there's going to be spoilers about his very last episode so leave right now, if you haven't seen, it it's very important because we're diving straight into this. Now, what is amc up to with the open ending ending for rick grimes on the show? Well, they have decided to expand into movies now, not movies that would regularly run on a big screen in a movie theater there's a possibility. They could end up in an amc theater. However, this is going to be for their channel on their network and possibly on their new service. Amc premiere, we're gonna get information in the future coming up. But all we do know. And this is just gonna be the facts and then I'll jump out of here. All we do know is that rick's story was left, openended he's been taken far away to another community with jadis. And I believe it's been confirmed, but there's a big possibility that heath is also at this community. His camper was spotted in the background scene. When rick was standing on top of a trash group, you can look up theories on google it's there and it's believed. And like I said, I believe it's been softly confirmed that heath was taken and traded by jadis as being a strong individual. And the people that she deals with, she either gives them a freshly bit victim, which is an a or somebody who is strong or a worker or a leader, which they label abby. So she said, rick is a b he's, a friend she wants to help save him so it's likely. We will see heath in the movies. If the actor wants to continue. His role will see rick grimes and his story. They've said, it's going to be a trilogy and we're also going to see jadis because she's the one who brought him to that community. Now they have said, it's going to be a trilogy of movies that will air on amc premiere or I'm. On amc. A lot of people are thinking, it's gonna be amc premiere. Also scott gimple has talked about doing different stories with other characters like backstories characters. We've already seen before. And we do know that jeffrey dean morgan has talked with scott gimple for a couple years now about doing a backstory to negan and seeing as he's most likely going to be a bigger character moving forward in the common season, it's, definitely likely that they could be in talks to have a negan back story coming up. Now they did talk a lot about negan's story. We do know about losing his wife lucille to cancer and all that. But we don't know his whole journey and creating the savior's, and it would be kind of cool to see dwight again to see the origin. Lucille not go. Overboard, let's not hand solo it. You know what I'm saying, but it would still be nice to see, or it would be cool for the negan fans to see how he started his journey into the apocalypse how he formed the savior's and even the origin of lucille and that's pretty much it. You know, make it cool maybe sharp, and I think we'll have a lot of fun with that now there's other possibilities. You know in the air, but it looks like from interviews. This is something new andrew, lincoln, didn't just trick us just because he wanted to it was an idea that was taken into consideration late last year, where he knew he had to leave the show to be with his family that's all based in in reality, as far as the interview goes with entertainment weekly. He wanted to be with his family more. And he talked about an exit in season 8. And then he couldn't do it. And he said, maybe we'll do it in season 9. He just wasn't ready yet. And somewhere around that time he got to talking with scott gimple about possibly doing a movie this way they can film in the uk. And he can be with his family in the uk. So according to him, they said, let's just do it. And even he was shocked and I'm gonna leave the link to the video description, I'm, sorry, in the video description, I'm gonna leave a link. If you guys want to read the whole article it even talks about cool stuff like the legacy character, judith grimes and how norman and and jeffrey dean morgan said, it's, a good thing, you're gone. Andy she's a far better actor than you are so there's, some good stuff in the interview. But basically as far as what amc is up to it does appear like they're trying to expand this. And since andrew lincoln really wanted to be back with his family. It looks like they took the opportunity instead of losing him completely. They took the opportunity to invest in gamble in a spinoff movie series with the possibility it's always possible that either he can reunite with the group on the show to end the series and reunite with them, shown and judith and that's possible or it's possible for them to cross over in some big movie finish essentially, if we are in the middle of transitioning from tv into separate streaming services for disney and netflix and hbo and everything else it's likely there could be some crossover going on, especially towards the end of the original series amc has talked a lot about continuing for the next 10 years. And it sounds like this is a big moment for them. Rick is a big character, a huge character he's. The lead of the show with a massive fan base, a huge core fan base and he's, such a good actor. And if he if anyone can lead a walking dead, spinoff movie, it's definitely him so we're going to follow up with some other information as this unfolds, but it looks like right now. It's pretty fresh. This is an idea that came out of them losing him. No matter what so they can still gain him if they did this spin and they're gonna start production in 2019. I don't know how fast they can push this out. So it doesn't look like I'm gonna really expect this until 2020, if they're starting production in sometime 2019. And it is a big event. Andrew lincoln talked about how it would be great to take their time and do a twohour movie something that they can do bigger and go on a greater scale and that's, definitely something I'm looking forward to so put your thoughts and opinions down in that comment box. Do you feel deceived or was it completely worth it? I understand the rock, you know between a rock and a hard place the actor was in. But for a rick rhine fan, a rick grimes fan, I have some massive bias. I love the character, and I love the actor. So just having an opportunity a chance to see him his story, continue I'm, fine with it, but put your thoughts and opinions down in a comment box and subscribe, we got a deeper into series that breaks down in painstaking detail. Every moment that happens in each episode of season 9 and also we're gonna cover the previous seasons, and we will put out new news as it unfolds for the walking dead. And some really cool fun stuff coming up thoughts and opinions in the comment box I'm done talking it's.

And I just wanted you guys to see how we get this stuff to market and how fresh and also notice. So first thing we want to do is check out find a good suitable plant. I think this guy right here, looks great I'm going to come in gently underneath where these stalks are they're, very fragile and we're going to lift up nice and gently and pull this nice root system out, which we have their the bottom of this just gets torn off goes in the trash. And then the clay balls in the bottom of the bucket or the bottom of the dish here are used. We can reuse those clean them sterilizing and using again, we're going to collect those in that in the bag that's. What they look like when they come out of the gum. This is going to come in couple those little guys hanging in there, pull off some of the extra rock wall and that's it it's that simple and go buy one of these at garden cove and huntsville or crocker farms up here on north sand mountain.

First of all it's important to know that all ring, the glasses are dishwasher safe. I wash all my glasses by machine, except so many this particular glass are so many burgundy glass designed from 1958 designed by klaus josef reader is a glass, which might not fit into a dishwasher. So therefore I like to take care of it by hand. What I do is I take some warm water, pour it into the glass after I bring stit in the sink just swill it like you would swear with your wine and then empty it out into your sink. And now it's all about how to polish the glass, how to proper take care about your stemware. When polishing a real glass, I suggest to use riddles microfiber tea towels. They have the perfect size. Perfect want. E to polish these glasses, all the glass in both hands, have it run through your hands, not too much force very gentle, and then polish the stem. And then with your right or left hand, hold the bowl in one of your hands. With the other hand cover your hand with the tea towel. And then in slow motion polish the bowl of the glass, I just have it run gently through my hands again, no need for force. No need for too much detergent just gently polish the glass. And if you want to have the perfect brilliance in the glass, when you have a very important dinner, also when the glass is clean, he comes out of your kitchen cabinet. I always suggest that you steam your glasses. Steaming is very simple. Don't burn yourself. It is hot water in your teapot. And what you do is it just gently on it on top as you can see the entire glass steams up, this allows me now to smoothly polish the glass. And when do I know, I'm finished when all the steam has disappeared, we make sure that there is no steam on the glass left. And this means or this is design we're done with proper polishing the glass. And this is how perfect lance would look like.

Hi I'm caitlin from my girl friday. And today, I'm going to show you how to remove scuff marks from tile the first thing that you're going to need is rubber gloves. Although this is sort of optional. My favorite thing to remove scuff marks is my secret weapon, which is the mr. clean magic, eraser so we're going to get the sponge wet. And for this you generally don't, even need a cleaning product. So we're gonna see if that works. And if it doesn't, you can use a mild soap. So you just start scrubbing at the scuff mark. And it really doesn't, even require very much effort. The sponge is pretty miraculous. And yeah, as you can see just a couple of seconds later, your scuff, mark is all gone I'm caitlin from michael friday. And I've just shown you.
