I am an average guy who likes to save money and do things myself. I do not consider myself a professional, just a hobbyist regarding home improvement projects or anything else around the house. I also like making videos. Since I had some success with an archery and outdoor channel, I thought I would branch out and start this channel. I live my life for the LORD, and seek to be a good person. Thanks for stopping by!
Altocraft 3 in 1 Polisher and Buffer
Altocraft 3 in 1 polisher and buffer, sponsored review. In this video, I show the use of an Altocraft 3 in 1 polisher and buffer. In particular, I show the use of it for sanding the finish off an old wooden table so that it can be refinished.

Greenworks pro 80 volt chainsaw review
มุมมอง 1.8Kปีที่แล้ว
Greenworks pro 80 volt 18 inch chainsaw review. In this video, I review the Greenworks pro 80 volt battery powered chainsaw that has an 18 inch bar. Overall I was very impressed with the Greenworks pro 80 volt 18 inch chainsaw and would recommend it to anyone who asked me about it. I also suggest getting at least a total of 3 batteries if you intend to run it for longer-lasting projects. I will...

Stump Grinder
มุมมอง 1.1Kปีที่แล้ว
How to use a stump grinder. In this video, I show you how to use a rented stump grinder that I rented. One key detail in using this stump grinder is to lock one wheel while in use. By leaving one wheel locked and the other unlocked, you are able to sweep back and forth across the stump while grinding it up. This is a common approach to stump grinding.
DIY Shed Build
มุมมอง 995ปีที่แล้ว
DIY Shed Build - In this video, I build a shed. For this particular shed build, I am using a prefabricated shed that I purchased and then assembled. This shed build began with me clearing some trees and then leveling a flat area to build the shed on. Once the foundation was prepared, I built the subfloor and then the shed went on top of that. I walk you through the process I used and then provi...
If you have a greenworks lawnmower you can use those batteries to. Those batteries weigh more but not bad but they also give more cutting time. I have never had a problem with batteries getting to hot to charge.
You dont need expensive bar oil you can use olive oil or vegetable oil.
I’ve tried that. It lubricates the saw adequately, and I’m absolutely certain it’s more environmentally friendly, BUT… The big problem with that is vegetable oils turn from oil into glue with exposure to air, leading to clogging and a buildup of sludge if it’s not used frequently. The other (smaller) problem is viscosity. Veggie oils tend to be thinner than chainsaw oil, so the oiler tends to empty the reservoir very quickly. I now only put veggie oil in my chainsaws if I happen to have some that’s turned too rancid for cooking, but I usually mix it 1 part veggie to 2 parts chainsaw oil (for viscosity), and I try to end my cutting session with 100% chainsaw oil to flush out the veggie oil before storage (to prevent clogging and sludge from forming).
i left vegtible oil in mine all winter and it never sludged. So idk what your using that it will do that.
Do you have a video of you watching your hunting clothes I hate to wash mine because it cost Mt so much I love to find the right away Do it .
On my Sean's Outdoor Adventures channel I did one like that years ago
I love to see you make a homemade treestand.
Noted. I'll keep that in mind.
I love these videos as well as your hunting ones, Sean. Could you please do one with the best methods to wrap long extension cords, water hoses and lengths of rope? The way my cords and hoses look and twist drive me insane!!
Thanks. I can show the way I do it but I'd hardly say it's a best method. Lol.
@@diyhouseprojects123😂😂 I hear you brother!
I always wondered how this was done! Now I know how to save myself some money. Thank you, Sean!
You're welcome, thanks for watching.
Thanks Sean!
Thanks for watching!!!!
Sean, would the shed pieces fit in a standard truck bed. Have property 1.5 hrs away in the middle of nowhere. Would be tough to get a 18 wheeler there
As it came all boxed up, yes, but you'd need a fork lift to put it in as a package. Otherwise you'd have to take it apart piece by piece and load it into the back of the truck. It would be taller than the sides of the truck so you'd have to have it strapped in properly.
Don't forget that a package like this does not come with any of the floor and it does not come with shingles. So you'd probably be making a couple trips if you only have one pickup truck and no trailer. If you could rent a trailer or borrow a trailer you could probably get it all done in one trip.
@@diyhouseprojects123 thanks! I don't have a trailer but could borrow one.
Yeah.. you'll probably need it once.you factor in the flooring material.
I've wanted to know how to do this for ages. I see them all the time being dumped or given away and was hoping they wouldn't be too difficult.. 🥩🦌🏹
Thanks for sharing. God bless you.
@diyhouseprojects123 I'm going to fix one now I have my own home to keep one..
Awesome!
Nice next time invite me, would ya when you have Venison Steaks! LOL Good job!
Sure are you in Iowa?
I have wanted an electric chainsaw for a long time. But the battery price is what has always kept me from getting one. It’s just so handy to have something you can pick up and go.
I agree.. I'd keep an eye out during Black Friday deals. I may look at getting their push mower with the same batteries and I could use them interchangeably
Great review - thanks Sean. I wonder if it is OK to put the battery in the fridge? Does the instruction manual mention that?
I am not sure. I will have to look at that area again more carefully.
Thanks for the review. I have the same saw as you. It's the Gen-1 version of the Greenworks 80V 18". They are up to Gen-3 for the most current version. Personally, I think the Gen-1 (your saw) is the best saw Greenworks has ever had in the consumer line. I run my saw with a 20" bar & chain. Makes buckin' and limbin' easier with a longer bar. I also run a more aggressive, standard, non-safety chain and the saw cuts a little quicker. I run two batts. and when I am working with a tree (dragging limbs, etc) I always have a charged batt. by the time the one I am using is depleted. I have never had the problem of the battery being too hot to start charging as soon as I put it on the charger. But then, I live at high elevation in the pines so the ambient temp. is not real hot and the wood is soft and cuts easily. Hope you enjoy your saw as much as I do mine!
Thanks. I didn't realize there were different generations of the saw. I simply clicked on the one that came up in the search and ordered it hahaha. God bless you
I see the 2nd gen on Amazon (upper portion has more green and it says gen 2 in title). On Greenworks website there are the two different 80V 18" but I don't see where it mentions gen 1 or 2. The one with more green (gen 2) I believe says 45cc gas equivalent) Some specs for the gen 1 say 42cc and some specs (amazon/video) say 45cc so idk if it's a different motor or not? Greenworks customer service reps do not seem to know either. Do you know the differences and could you post a link to the 3rd gen as I do not see it anywhere. Thanks
Good review on what seems like a good saw. 👍🏼
Thanks brother. Appreciate you.
My only thing with electric saws is that they are heavy. I dont know if that one weighs a lot or not. The echo 2511T is definitely my every day saw i use. Cant really tell its on your saddle when climbing. If you gotta bring a chainsaw into a tree thats the one i recommend. A lot lighter than my stihl 200t.
This thing is probably lighter than my gas powered saw or they're about the same.
@@diyhouseprojects123 that's not bad at all then. Though I'm that guy that still likes using corded drills. I'm too forgetful to charge batteries, then when I need it they are dead haha
I get it. I'm surprised this thing worked as well as it does.
@@diyhouseprojects123 the stuff they are making with electric is crazy. They run as good if not better than gas stuff. Even like the leaf blowers.
👍
Amazing video as always!! 👏🏼👏🏼
Lol thanks
Good stuff, Sean! Looks like you're staying busy. 😂
Thanks brother! Always appreciate you. God bless you
Good stuff, thx Sean.
Thanks for watching
Nice!!! You should have talked about kick back! I have heard stories about some one cutting a bunch of logs and the tip of the chain hitting the other log behind the one your cutting. Instant face chopping brain exposing mess! 😨😨🤕🤕🤢🤢
Wear a hardhat with ear muffs and mesh face cover! Comes all in one!
Esh. Sounds bad
👍
When cutting down a tree, when using a tree climbing harness! Always cut below your linemen's loop rope!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣💯💯👍🏻👍🏻
Dial 911 right before
Good video man keep it up!
Thanks!
"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐.....😎" Excellent!
Thanks brother
You need to come up with better content then this, I think changing a car battery has been covered lol. All the best
But they haven't done it like I did it 😉
@@diyhouseprojects123 lots of very cool channels out there.
amen
Interesting,...
Lol, thanks
Sean, my friend, if you actually ground a "sump" that would be really expensive to fix!! Please edit the title. 🙂
Nice
Great video!! 🙌🏼👏🏼👏🏼🙌🏼 Thank you and God Bless 🫶🏽
Thank you!
God bless you as well!
I’d love to see your journey of bow making! It’s pretty fun!!
Thanks! I hope I can get time to try it! We shall see.
That would be cool
My dad when I was a kid built a large shed, I think making sure the roof and floor is water proof/ resistant will help with cleaning up, also using another material would help if the wood ever sways and gives up. Possibly a water channel outside. Add Windows are good but probably will always be slightly dark, so adding electricity or light bulbs would help. Always used for storing lawn mower and less valuable things. Adding a second back door ramp is useful.
👍
Phillips screws? Use torx once and you'll never buy Phillips again
Some spots I used torx, when I needed 3 inch.
Fantastic 👍 thanks for sharing. God bless 🙌
Thank you and God bless you as well!
I see you show how to make sure the floor is square once it’s framed, but how do you start and square it up from nothing? I’m not a builder, so…
I used a T square for the corners and did that first. The T square gives you a perfect right angle. You hold the boards together at the corner and screw or nail them together with the T square. Then measure from the corner over and mark the board every 16 or 24 inches (depending on how far apart you want them). Use a speed square against where the two boards meet where you marked it to make sure it is square where they come together and then nail or screw them together. Then measure corner to corner as I show in the video to make sure the whole unit is square and not off a little. If one corner measures longer than the other, tap it with a sledge hammer and measure again till they are the same.
@@diyhouseprojects123 Thanks
👍
Love the idea on this new channel! Happy to subscribe.
Thanks so much!!!
Looks great, Sean! Thanks for sharing your process with us, the good and the bad. I also subscribed to your new channel and look forward to seeing all your DIY projects. 👍🏼
Thanks so much brother. I appreciate you!
I'm subbed here as well, getting ready to start watching draw results for Colorado, went to a dow meeting Friday, they are gonna do away with the otc tags in 2024 will be all draw... they also changed tag allotments to 80/20 80% resident 20% non resident for all high quality units, and 75/25 for general units..
Wow thanks for the update. I hope I draw this year. I doubt I'll go back for elk with the new approach with all draw units.
This is a great video. What really impresses me is the degree of perfection you work to achieve, like perfectly squaring up the floor. And the tip about the wire mesh is really helpful. You do beautiful work.
Thanks so much, John! That's really nice of you to say! God bless you
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 Amazing Work!
Thanks!
15:09 what if I don’t have any joist hanger things? Do I have to have them 😬😅
No they just make it a lot easier to set the trusses by yourself. You can just set the trusses in place and nail or screw them to the top wall plate but it will be a lot easier to do if you have at least one person helping you. If you don't then I'd screw two 2x4s with a slot between them that you could slide the truss in to help hold it while you screw it down. The hangers are not that expensive if you want to look into getting some though. Either way, you can make it work.
@@diyhouseprojects123 awesome! Thank you!! I really appreciate you for sharing your time and knowledge. You explain everything so well and it helps me So Much! God bless you and yours 🫶🏽
Thank you! I am really glad you feel that way. God bless you and yours also.
I like the fence idea to keep the rodents out
Thanks!!!! It comes from experience!!! First house I bought had rodents constantly burrowing under the existing shed. Neve again!
Good build Sean. I am thinking about tackling my own hunting blind build. Good video to watch for pointers.
Thanks Dave. God bless your build!
Nice job on the shed! It's also nice to hear your comments at the end on what went wrong and what you might do differently. I always find there's something that I miscalculated on or had to redo. I guess it's not just me!
Thanks David. Yes, I typically have something go wrong or learn something new with every project.
Congrats on the new channel. Shed looks really nice. I would have thought that leaving airflow underneath the shed would actually aid in mold prevention. Now you have stagnant air and humidity that can’t escape, no?
The thing that causes high humidity is a sharp drop in temp not stagnant air. Warmer air holds more moisture. When warm summer air drifts under the shed there is a drop in temp and the cooler air can't hold as much moisture so moisture condenses out onto surfaces (like on a glass of ice water in the summer time). That added moisture to the organic material (wood) becomes the formula for mold growth. Since mold spores are in the air everywhere they will be there and can start to grow.
I got the email. Best wishes on your new channel
Thanks Shawn!!! God bless you
Sweet!
Thanks
Amen brother.. absolutely always support you.. Dennis in saskatchewan
Thanks brother, much appreciated!
Done. Always glad to see good stuff on your vids
