@rjwhitt8753 😂...thanks for the tip! I had them on after using a table saw. 🤔 I don't know though....those signals might be dangerous! 🤣 Thanks for the laugh☺️

Happy I could help!

Testing my memory! Think it was about two quarts. If on the level, fill it till it starts coming out the fill hole.

@@Mr.Handy-ish thank you sir

@@AlexDenham-of7me A lot of the things I do aren't the polished way a pro would, but it hasn't leaked, and looks purty good! Glad I could give you a laugh, though!

@@Mr.Handy-ish for now yeah it won’t but in the feature it most likely will start to.

For future reference, what did I do to cause future problems? So far folks have recommended a different product to tar paper. My nail placement is for high wind (6 nails instead of 4 per manufacturer). I used bare minimum overlap on the tar paper 😬 I have another longer video of this roofing job if you cared to check my work for me. Thanks in advance!

@@Mr.Handy-ish theres a few things i seen that will cause it but i understand your not a pro not everyone is but you will get it down eventually.

@AlexDenham-of7me Thanks. Yeah, the last one I did is ten years in and still looks ...buyer is now a friend, and hasn't reported any issues. Should get me 15-20 years down the road...put fresh decking under it, too.

@corrieflowers5902 She had her 3 older sisters goin', too!

Central Kentucky....very clay and rocky.

@@Mr.Handy-ish thanks, I'm in Tennessee, just east of Nashville. Our soils look similar. Do you still like your machine?

@josephklein4680 I do. I'll be digging a round storm shelter into a hill for my sister later this month...stay tuned!! I'd like to think I don't abuse it...I know it has limits!

@@josephklein4680 I have a few other videos out on it...take a look.

Haven't checked it since hookup, but we're able to stream on two screens AND I can be uploading videos all at the same time.

@@Mr.Handy-ish thanks man I hope it works out for me sense I would mostly be using it for videogames and school work

@Fernandos2005 schoolwork...no worries. With gaming you may have a slight disadvantage to the townies.

@@Mr.Handy-ish I hope I don’t cuz I used to have an att hotspot and it worked fine for gaming hopefully this one works even better

@@Fernandos2005have you got yours, I’m in the same situation you are. Have a AT&T hotspot from like 2016 and want to upgrade to the AT&T internet air.

@@gstar7686 Hadn't thought to look into...this is working great so far.

@@Mr.Handy-ish You''ll get much better speeds with Starlink. I usually get between 100-200 Mbps down and 20-25 Mbps up.

@gstar7686 Price?$?

Sorry I didn't include that in the video! Let me whip a quick how to together for ya!

I'll leave it hooked up if it's light digging or I'm on terrain that the trencher can't handle, but the 4x4 pickup can. The suspension on the truck gets pushed around a lot by the trencher, and the transport tires aren't really able to support tough digging. That's why you'll usually see them in digging mode (stabilizer brackets on backhoe side). They provide much better support and cause less potential damage to the machine or its tow vehicle.

I was also thinking keep it hooked up even after changing over to the legs, or adding a swivel foot to come down below the tires. Anyway just me thinking.

@bobreichel In the Army I trained on a SEE Truck. A goofy looking excavating truck that had a front end loader and a backhoe that deployed from the "bed". I've seen them come up on auction, but I figure the upkeep would be too challenging/expensive. Besides, I kinda like the simple design on this machine...even if changing in and out of transport mode is a pain. Anyway, thinking can be dangerous, as my mother always told me! 👍

Flip down supports for each tire is a cool idea.

Cuttin' deep!

@Mr.Handy-ish You made the joke sooo easy!

We did okay...but that's with three days. We're so far out from town, it's hard to get much traffic. Advertisement on Facebook marketplace helped. Only one large item left, so that's good!

Thanks...I asked my sister what she thought of my latest short. She said unimpressed "yeah, I've done that before." 🤣

I forgot about that...the wife and I both got a good laugh at that!

The blue inside light should turn off after a bit. No outside lights that I'm aware of other than the control panel readout.

@@Mr.Handy-ish yes the outside lights stay on

If you push and hold the power button, it should turn everything off. Other than that, I have no clue...I suppose you could always unplug as a last resort.

@@Mr.Handy-ish yes the control panel lights are what stay on. I’ve only had it for 2 days. I just didn’t know if

Yeah...ours doesn't turn off automatically. We still like it, though. Here's hoping you have our luck with it!

🤭

I'm on hills, so I tend to run slow where it's the most precarious. Of course, the grass has alot to say about how fast I'd go, too. Average, not too overgrown I'd run in third. On the flat, with thinner grass, I'd even hit 4th gear sometimes. 2nd I used when slick on hillside or when crop is heavy. Great machine, but I just sold my 2040. Maybe next year I'll have something with 4x4.

It's got a pump.

Like a little three wheel tow-behind? 🤔. Cool idea.

@@Mr.Handy-ish kinda like a semi converter dolly except where the fifth wheel would be would be either a basket the bucket could go into or a trailer ball and a bucket clamping coupler

Something to toss around my noggin. The semi dolly style is a nice approach. Basically a mini trailer for the bucket to sit in....trick is to secure it. I'm not exactly on flat ground 😲.

@@Mr.Handy-ish neither am I... believe I gave 2ideas the other would be a trailer coupler you slide on the edge and maybe have a pin boss welded or bolted to the back of the bucket... The dolly trailer is just to handle the weight since the bucket has alot of mechanical leverage downforce... I have the harbor freight version with 3bucket teeth and a small chunk of 2inch 1/4wall fits over my bucket teeth and since I run 2inch couplers on all my road trailers I used a 2inch coupler for a 2inch tongue and 3pieces of 5/8 id 1inch od round tubing to create a pin mount for the back of the bucket just haven't gotten to the converter dolly... I also changed my tires since mine is used almost solely off road to some 22x11-10 4ply high load atv tires on 10x10 4on4 pattern rims since mine is used in blue clay (usually saturated wet) I had issues with the skinny trailer tires sinking to the towables frame these being over twice as wide really are helpful... Another mod for muddy conditions is to bolt some 4in x4in x2ft long wood blocks to the outrigger feet just in front of the dirt spikes this reduces sinking in mud and prevent dragging. If working from a paved surface 2chunks of railroad tie prevent the dirt spikes from contacting the pavement surface (either concrete or asphalt).

@@dodgeme1986truck Thanks for the ideas! I may end up attempting them...or something like them. 👍

It does...but to be fair, I don't use it as much as I thought I would. If we entertained more we would. We may have used it 20 times so far.

Oh ..the puff of air? ...yep. highly effective, I'm sure. I had to rewatch it!

@@Mr.Handy-ish hahahaha

Thanks for sharing...and I agree about devices.

Sure is. I use it every-other time I mow for the steep hill sections the rider can't get and for small patches. What kind of mowing will you be doing? I love that it can mow higher than Mily rider and the adjustment is so easy. I'm not a fan of the auto throttle...it throttles down too quickly sometimes. Batteries are all still healthy. I use them all year.

@@Mr.Handy-ish I mow flat terrain bermuda turf . Just got mine couple weeks ago . Just wondering about long term reliability , really like it so far especially push button start , fold up for storage. The speed control takes some getting used to , cant find “sweet spot” yet . Thanks for replying!

I think you'll like it. I abuse mine, so your purposes should be well-met. I have most of the 40V Kobalt series. Happy with their stuff.

Thanks for the wonderful comment! Good luck ☺️

Think that's what my small yellow pepper was? Tasty...not too hot.

I'm hearing I need to turn up the heat...melt the snow a bit!

@@Mr.Handy-ish haha I was just kidding love the vids😂

I have comments set to strict...yours got kicked to "held for review". Glad I checked the held comments!

No cook, for sure. Just tried making something with our leftovers. Will keep trying! If I try making Gumbo, I WON'T put it on YT...promise!

@@Mr.Handy-ish oh who am i kiddin, good job on the cooking, if you make some gumbo you should upload it to youtube. just gained yourself a new follower.

@@bobstevenson-z4i Thanks! If I make some, I'll have to give you a shout-out/blame.

@@bobstevenson-z4i th-cam.com/video/VyqSMQ9k2_0/w-d-xo.html My apologies 🤣

I have one! Why didn't I think of that?!..and I could use a chain to suspend the bucket slightly below for slack. Goodness. Well...next time 🤣

@@Mr.Handy-ish They are dang handy to have laying around.

Right!! I'm relying on an inch of styrofoam. Better than nothing?

Lol ..manufactures homes are crazy!...cheaper to buy a "regular" size.

@@Mr.Handy-ish after cost of extra material and labor I find that hard to believe but sounds like you know what you’re doing😂

Oohhh... that's still a stretch. Many things I do don't quite pass the sniff/common sense test.

With her personality, I have a feeling it'll stay looking good/clean.

Thanks ... don't need two people to put it back up anymore!

If the insulation on the power cord melted...I have questions! Was it the fault of the dryer or something else? If it was something else, and the dryer was still working properly, I'd replace the entire cord. Make sure the circuit wasn't allowing too much current through. On a good circuit breaker or fuse? Should be rated no more than 20 amps.

I’ll be honest and say it was connected to an extension cord but I’d been using it that way for over 3 years 😅 not sure which of the cords caused the melting but I had to pry them apart. I can’t find anything online about replacing the cord and can’t seem to find anyone that’s done so before

Let me shoot a how-to for you ..IF I can figure it out 😁

I would greatly appreciate that! I’ve definitely changed light fixtures and standard dryer cords before. I’m just a little intimidated here lol

I may not be much help, then. You should be able to handle it! Use what I say with caution 🤔😁. th-cam.com/video/p5P8nLiTkvw/w-d-xo.html

Guilty, I'm sure. Working on it?? 🤔
