Does it take five hours or five days?
Wood carving needs a good carving axe. I have found an old one, but how long will it take to replace the handle and restore the head - five hours or five days?

I'm uploading this so I'll remember how to do this next time I need to. It reveals all the mistakes, the rookie errors, and why I haven't owned one of these before now. But I do get there in the end.
I made a mallet!
มุมมอง 902 ปีที่แล้ว
I made my first mallet this year as part of the #kustomgritmalletchallenge It was fun, frustrating and not as simple as I thought it would be. But I did learn a few things along the way. Thanks Kustom Grit for hosting this challenge.
Rockwell 18V Lawn Trimmer - First impressions
มุมมอง 1.6K2 ปีที่แล้ว
Lawn trimmers, or whipper snippers as we call them, haven't been my best friends. I've avoided buying one for many years. But this was on sale and I already had the battery pack. So it seemed worth getting. Was it a good move? Watch and learn.

How to change the clock on a Honda
มุมมอง 11K2 ปีที่แล้ว
Every six months we need to change our clocks when daylight savings begins or ends. That means, every six months I find the page in the manual to tell me how to do this. Hopefully this might help too.
Making a very portable bookshelf

It's small enough to sit on the side of a desk. It can hold books. And it folds up nice and small. Here's how it's done.
Comparing the varnishes I have in the shed
มุมมอง 144 ปีที่แล้ว
If you have a shed, you probably have tins of paint and varnish sitting on a shelf. I certainly do. We also have a problem with some coasters we made, so it seemed like a good opportunity to address one problem and compare the stains and varnishes we have. These are bits of a pallet that were cut to size and then sanded smooth. It's not a conclusive test, but it worked for me.
We fixed a Wheelbarrow

It's always good when you find something being thrown out that you can use. This is why we now this wheelbarrow, but it needed some work. So we did it. Music: www.purple-planet.com
Taking a ride over the Black Spur - (so that's what falling off the bike looks like!)

It's a glorious day in Melbourne, and I'm out for a ride through the hills. It's a great ride and I invite you to join me, though be warned, it doesn't end well for everything. #NC700SA #NC700
Making a top for an old trunk from pallet wood.
มุมมอง 214 ปีที่แล้ว
My grandfather (we called him Jimpa) had this trunk when he served as a Salvation Army Chaplain back in the day. It's heavy and difficult to move around the house, so we've found a better way to use it. Through this I've learned again the value of using the right tools - I didn't have them all - and of thinking carefully before drilling, which I did but it was harder on my brain that it should ...

Good work mate, keep at it!!!
Thanks for your encouragement 😊
Thank you!
Glad it helped
How to (ignore the entire video) 10:24 - 11:36
😁
I know it is silly but i am annoyed that the clock can't be put into 24H mode ;P
I don't know if any Honda clocks can do that. Thanks for watching.
Thanks, you have no idea how long i struggled before this video saved me lol
I'm glad this has been helpful. It took me a few times to work it out and that was with help 😁
Thamk you. Muito obrigado.
Cheers
Thy
Glad it helped
Thank You I have just purchased a Rockwell whipper snipper the new model that extends and the handle and the head rotates. I have found it is so easy to use and so light. Thank you very much for the instructions on how to replace and extend the cord as the manual is very hard to understand. Thank You
Thanks Bill. I'm glad it is useful. I've had to come back to this video a few times 😁
Please make a video on how to change from mph to km
I'm not sure that's even possible. I don't have the bike anymore so I can't even try to work it out. I do know that 35mph is around 60kmh, and 60mph is 100kmh. Enjoy the ride.
It's the same process, it's just in the 3rd menu option. first is brightness, second is clock, third is mph/kph
A TOY! RUBBISH!
It's performing better than my first impressions suggested. I'm happy.
Did you find out how to address the chain and oil issues?
I make sure to empty the oil out when I have finished. It's a bit of a nuisance, but at least I know I start with a full load. With the chain, there's a chance I had it on backwards. Oops! I have learned to check the tension more often. Thanks.
Thank's, I'm tall so... might have to look else were.
Hi, can the head be removed to fit whipper snipper blades? Thanks
Good question. Honestly, I don't know. But having just changed the cord and learning how to do that, I might be keen to find out! If I do, I'll post another video. Cheers.
How I found this…I was looking for a review on the NC700SA. I just want a mid-size bike to do a little bit of touring about in South Oz. Nothing to serious. I’m returning to bikes after a 40 year break. I’ve done a course in Return to Riding but am having trouble finding a bike that is comfortable and I like the looks of NC700SA. I really want a Honda 4, but a good one is hard to come by at a reasonable price and I really don’t want to start fiddling with carbs. I’m 6’2” 110kgs. 62years old. On various TH-cams vids they have mentioned that there is vibration through the bars on the NC700SA at certain speeds or revs. Do you notice this on highway runs? South Australia has a lot of long, straight roads. Overall I’m really starting to sway towards the NC700SA, the vibration bit is leaving me wondering. The radiator sticks out a bit from the frame I believe there are some after market protection bars if you drop it. The NC700SA does lack some eye appeal but it is a practical bike and the only person I want to impress is me. What is it like to self-service. Are the plugs hard to get at? I suspect a service is fairly easy being a Honda. What about valve clearance checks and adjustment? Just some questions that you may or may not be able to offer advice on. Thanks if you can. I’m also a vice refurbished nutter. I really like vices. I’m an ex-cabinetmaker so that kinda makes sense. What you have there is a Dawn 100mmL. It’s post-1974 because of the metric measurement. I suppose you know that the 100mm is the width across the jaws. The external jaw plate fasteners were a model upgrade change from the original fasteners that were blind bolts with a countersink that went in through the face of the jaw plate. The problem with those was that the slot would fill with crap and/or the slot would get damaged making it difficult to swap out the jaw plates when they got too worn. The L stands for ‘Light’ meaning a handyman vice. The industrial quality vices were stamped SP meaning ‘Standard Pattern’. There also a range known as SG meaning ‘Super Grade’ that are a steel composite vice and pretty much unbreakable and pretty expensive. Yours is a cast iron vice. Being cast iron they are a bit more fragile than the steel composite vices. People do things to vices that they are not meant to do such as hammer a flat piece of steel to make a 90 degree bend or as a press or other nasty things. Vices are just meant to hold things. They are not meant to have a cheater bar on the handle and with enough pressure will snap off or crack the jaw. The weak spot is a diagonal across the dynamic jaw from the inner curve to the Dawn stamp. People also use the flat part of the dynamic jaw as an anvil. It’s cast iron and will break. I’m a bit miffed why the handle is jammed and you can’t slide it. The only way it would remain like that it’s if somebody has dropped a dollop of weld in it. Perhaps support the head, (the smooth part of the spindle the handle goes through) and belt the other end. I’ve never in the hundreds of vices I’ve clean and reassembled struck one with a stuck handle like yours. I personally never repaint them. Some blokes do, I don’t. I find that when you go to resell them blokes prefer something that has ‘character’. Nothing lacking more workshop cred than a pretty vice, but the painting does protect the surface from rust etc. I really like the way you solved the compression of the spring to insert the split pin. I may use that idea myself. I usually just jam the dynamic jaw upside down against my mounted bench vice and force the washer back with a pair of spread pliers and drop the pin in. Your way looks a tad easier and may I say a lot more ingenious. Ride safe and I’ll keep considering the NC700SA as my first and at my age probably my last bike. Cheers, Dave.
Dave, that is possibly the longest youtube comment I have ever read. 😁 Thanks for your wisdom on the vice. I'm a bit of a hack and enjoyed fixing this. As it belonged to my father-in-law, I'll be keeping it so the paint is worth doing. But it was a pain. Thanks for your thoughts on my ingenuity too. 😎 As for the NC700SA, I love it. I did use it to ride to Sydney via the coast and them home through the hills and it worked a treat. The final day was around 800kms from Canberra through the the hills . I did need to stop at Seymour and stand up for an hour or so to get some feeling back in my behind. The bike is amazing, the seat - not so much. So I now have an Air-Hawk and wouldn't do a long ride without it. There is a little vibration, but I'm almost certain it wasn't always there. Anyway, I love the bike and have no reason to look to change it. Look up Honda NC750X Stuff on youtube and you'll see just how easy it is to do some of the servicing yourself. Enjoy the ride. Brian
Does it make noise while the phone Isn't attached?
None at all. Sits on the bar without wriggling or wobbling.
Have you had any issues with this holder? I have a wee bit of trust issues to stick a $1000 phone in one of these
I haven't had any problems with it at all. Mind you, I'm also not going to put a $1,000 phone on there. Whenever I get a new phone, the old phone becomes the one that sits here. And I'm only using it on roads, not on gravel or off-road rough tracks. Cheers.
@@revbharvey5046 Thanks for the answer! Ride safe!
@@misha1151 cheers.
My friend already use it for 1 year, and he crashed his bike (60km/h) the phone still sits on gub holder
@@deadpool-hi1ox That says a lot for the phone holder. I hope he is ok too.
Awesome mate that was very helpful. Not sure when I'll get around to having a go at getting mine working but I may hit you up for hints on disassembling it when I do... and I'll avoid that paint 😁
I'm glad it was helpful. Yeah, the paint makes it look great, but it really delayed the process. Cheers.
Beautiful ride, good use of video editing and music. Thanks for taking us along with you mate! :{)
Thanks Rapturee. It was a good ride, and I'm glad I found the camera again. :)
