*Everyone should make it a practice to hit that "Like" button below the video before watching. It literally takes less than a second, helps him out and in turn helps it be more worthwhile for him to make more videos for you to enjoy.* Been a follower of your videos since way back in your earlier days years ago and still love them. I hope you have more chore-type videos planned for the future. I would imagine that they may be a bit easier to film in that you're getting something that you needed to do accomplished while at the same time making a youtube video, even if the chore takes a bit longer than normal.
Thanks! I do wish more people would click the like button and the notifications bell too because my understanding is it will help my channel with the TH-cam algorithms.
@@RelaxingASMR I think that a lot of people don't understand what all is involved in making a good video. While this one was outside and didn't require lights, I know that the videos inside do. Plus there's the different camera angles, the lighting, getting sounds just right, etc. For those of us who have been watching you for years, it's a little frustrating to see that people won't take a couple of seconds to Like and Subscribe. Your channel has grown considerably with subscribers since I started watching years ago, but it should be more by now if all viewers were doing their part. There are some content creators who have gained 500,000 followers in just months for their ASMR videos and their content isn't nearly as relaxing or unique. As I remember with each new video going forward, I'll be pushing for more Likes and Subscribers in reminders to others from now on. It's the least that we can do as viewers. Hopefully others will stand behind me and we can kind of rally more Likes and Subscribers to get you to 300K by the end of the year. It's doable if we all work together. Yes, you are correct for the youtube algorithm. Since I am subscribed to you and have the notification bell set to All notifications, every time you post a new video, it shows up at the top on my main youtube page. The same for all of the content creators that I am subscribed to. If they don't all fit on one page (and they don't), each time I reload or visit the main page, more new videos pop up.

Thanks. Most of my videos are pretty much unintentional ASMR because I'm usually just doing the things that I would normally be doing whether a camera was rolling or not.
@@RelaxingASMR That style has always been my favorite. That's why this is the only ASMR style channel I watch. Relaxing and always informative in one way or another.
These types make me tingle more than somebody making noises. This reminds me of being a kid and learning things. Watching the teacher write on the chalk board used to send me into orbit. 🤣
This video reminds me of when my father would tell me to give him a hand with some mechanical thing he was doing, because I would "need it when I'm not here." I miss him. Thank you R.
Well surely the more boring the subject of the video the better it is to fall asleep to? I thought that's why his videos are all about quite mundane things, not *'Testing my brand new BAZOOKA!!! - ASMR'* etc.
I have a tremendous amount of respect for you sir, thank you for sharing this - it may seem small but for those of us lacking present or practical parents and grandparents, simple videos like this are incredibly meaningful. I often find myself returning to your advice videos from a few years ago. It’s easy to write digital work off as “just TH-cam videos” but you have a much larger impact than such a description would suggest. I know I’m not alone feeling like this, so thank you very much for sharing your wisdom - both philosophical and practical.
What I love about these videos is the commentary, I could watch you do any task and happily sit and watch you explain what you are doing and a little bit of history about it and how stuff was invented. This is why I love unintentional asmr. I’ve missed these videos so much. Can’t wait to watch this every night.
I loved this video - it reminds me of hanging out with my dad while he does simple maintenance on my car, him explaining what certain parts do and why he's doing what he's doing. Super relaxing and comforting. Thank you!
Oiling the wrench would have been the perfect "Hank Hill using a miniature WD40 can on his regular sized WD40 can" moment. Repairing a tool to repair another tool.
This is an older video so you might not see this but if you do. Hi! I’ve been watching your videos for nearly ten years and I’ve never commented until now. Videos like this mean so much to me as it reminds me of when I lived in an old Victorian house that my parents and grandparents bought that needed renovating. The house was lucky enough to come with an allotment and a good size of grass land. I went to school in the city and came home to the countryside where I would fix the old lawnmower, build sheds and plant tomatoes with my grandad. He has passed on now and I have had to move into a city hundreds of miles away from that house but these videos transport me back to my old home when I can fix lawnmowers and build sheds with my grandad in the stunning Scottish countryside once again and I honestly can’t put into words how thankful I am for that. Seriously so happy I have these videos in my life.
I love reading the comments, especially comments like this one. To think that a video I made somehow has the ability to spark pleasant memories for a person really inspires me to keep plugging away with my channel. Thanks for taking a moment to let me know:)
I was having one of those rough days and it’s those days where it’s easy to get pulled into the negative thoughts and spin out. But it’s videos like these that really help me find the space and time to step outside of myself and stop the thought cycle before it becomes a negative feedback loop.
I work on lawn mowers for a loving and I never had the thought cross my mind that anything I did everyday could be considered asmr related... now everything I change oil on a push mower I'm going to get tingles... hahahaha. Thanks man... 😊
Thank you for not just great asmr, but also taking proper safety measures and wearing appropriate PPE (long sleeves, gloves, and goggles I assume). It's a detail overlooked by many but also the most important part of any chore!
For a video like this, I started to follow this channel was the change of a tire and sharpening the blade. Happy to follow the channel apart from the relaxing moments everything I have learned from various subjects. Congratulations.
I bought my first home, finally, and am addicted to lawn care. Sharpening my blades is one task I want to do and this tool in the video is exactly how I want to sharpen the blades. So I'm here for ... oh who am I kidding. I won't be able to stay awake through it 😁 Oh, have you ever done the top of the fingernail test for how sharp blades are? Run it across the facing of your fingernail and see if it sheds. That's how we measured sharpness of hockey skates years ago.
I love your videos. They make me tingle like I was a kid again in school. I love to watch you draw/write do anything. Your voice is so soothing and you have such wisdom and knowledge in all you do.
More of these videos please. You are my favorite content creator. I enjoy relaxing and watching you work on pens or lawn mowers or anything else. Thank you for giving us this content
Your chore/maintenance ASMR videos are my absolute favourite. They are deeply relaxing and at the same time educational. Always love your channel, and your Minecraft relaxing gameplay one. 👌🏼🙌🏼
despite not owning a lawnmower, or ever really imagine myself doing this type of maintenance, I absolutely love learning new things from your videos like this, they're relaxing and informative and just have a comforting sort of vibe, thanks for making a new one!
Thank you for this type of video. Your sound editing was good too! It was so relaxing and informative. I don't think my dad ever did much maintenance on his lawn mower when I was growing up, and this really helped give me pointers for taking care of my mower when I do get a yard. It's nice to see how easy it is to do basic maintenance which will extend the life and quality of that machine.
When you change the oil, put a Gatorade 32 ounce bottle over the oil filler opening and tilt the lawnmower. All of the oil goes into the bottle without spilling and with room to spare. It’s very easy compared to using a pan.
WONDERFUL video as always . And ..... since you seem to be a gent who likes to know things , you might be interested to know that lawns showed up long before the 1700s !! We have illuminated manuscripts as early as the 1100s showing smooth greenswards !
Good to see you check the balance. I have an older Honda mower. I fear it is on it’s way out, but I am guessing it is probably 25 years old I am guessing. Use it to get the drainage ditch on one side of the yard done. Also gets under the trees and shrubs. After that it’s the zero turns time to finish the job.
I knew you would have a nice little Honda push mower...I’m kinda surprised you don’t have one of the older Honda riding mowers, I had one when we had our home in a neighborhood. For a detail oriented man like yourself, you would have really enjoyed them. They were a bit pricey, but they were some of the best lawn tractors ever made.
No oil change??!!! Mister, if you were standing in front of me right now I'd ..... LOL, change the poor fellas oil or I will have to report you to the proper lawn mower authorities.
How many years has it been since you've changed it? Lol I hope it's at least a cheaper brand and not a really good one, otherwise I'd definitely recommend changing it. We used to buy a cheapy 20-21 inch (MTD or Yard Machines brand) mower at Walmart every 2-3 years. Never changed the oil in it and probably mowed the large front and back lawn 25-30 times each per year. I would check the oil every now and then to see if I needed to add more, but don't recall changing it. Mainly because it was such a cheap mower and the wheels would literally be wobbly and about to fall off by year 2 or 3 and the bolts holding the wheels on would be rusted/seized and usually not want to tighten or loosen. When you factor in the $100 cost of a new mower just a few years ago, four new wheels and the bolts/nuts to go with them cost over 25% of what an entire mower cost. Of course, now things are different. Now even the cheapy is pushing $200 if you don't want self-propelled. Bought a nice new expensive Troy Bilt about a month ago at Home Depot. I loved that it had the large rear wheels. I always saw the brand on TV and thought, "I'm going to buy a really nice one like that someday." We bought it, I got it home and right after opening the box, it was already leaking oil out of the front of the motor and also out of the air hole in the filter housing. The instruction manual was written by someone who clearly wasn't speaking my kind of English and their diagram didn't make sense or explain things properly for putting the handle on. Normally, that is a super easy process, but this was a different kind of handle and different way of connecting it to the mower. I finally figured it out, but then found the leaking oil and it sprayed even more fresh oil into the new air filter as soon as it ran for a short time. Took it back, returned it and bought the $160 cheapy MTD/Yard Machines brand, instead. Not a problem at all, had a better handle on it with no drama, etc. Sometimes more expensive isn't always better. Though now that we are beyond the $100 category and I like the new mower, regular maintenance and yearly oil changes should keep it going for at least 4-5 years. To me, the $100 one just wasn't worth changing the oil in since it would run for the 2-3 years before it fell apart and just needed a little new oil added now and then. But even though the new one is still rather cheap, I like it and want to keep it in good shape.
@@user-tb2jy9lu3d I work for Lowe’s and when I bought my first house I picked up a mid-range Troy-bilt mower. I couldn’t even make it through one round of mowing the tiny yard. It bogged down in moderate length grass and I hated the speed control mechanism. I returned it and went across the street to Home Depot where I picked up a Honda similar to Mr. R’s, except mine has a hydrostatic drive. It cost nearly double the Troy-bilt, but might be the best purchase I’ve ever made as a homeowner. It’s simple to operate and more reliable than any vehicle I’ve ever owned. A decade later and with minimal maintenance, she still fires up with a half pull after sitting all winter.
Such a great video! These always totally make my day! Only thing that concerned me was when you used the grinder on the blade it looked like those sparks were flying right onto your hands. That just sounds like it’d hurt to me. Hope you’re ok, lol!
I really liked this, if you have any other around the house chores you wanna film I’m sure they would also be great. The more “unintentional” asmr that you do so well is emphasized in this type of video.
I have to fix a John Deere that was passed down to me and it has a checklist of problems. But it will be so worth it once I can ride that baby around my yard, I can't wait.
It's been 5 years since we've seen another chore video! You need to do more chore videos, plus an aquarium update, a billiards game video, and a crossword puzzle video
@@RelaxingASMR yes the billiards video was excellent! You can also consider doing another solitaire game too. I learned how to play solitaire by watching your video
I think that is a truly happy idea. And very fitting, considering all of the family keepsakes you've shared with us over the years, for this channel to be passed down as well. It would be one heck of an addition.

Maybe one day! I'd have to get a larger yard first though, so as to justify the riding mower:)
I bought a honda for about $729.00 before taxes back around 2007. It was a good one.
This is Moseley from Downton Abbey , What a great Butler 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
My poor lawn mower. I've never done any maintenance to him, just fuel him up every year and off he goes. I feel like a bad lawn mower parent now.
No oil change??!!! Mister, if you were standing in front of me right now I'd .....
LOL, change the poor fellas oil or I will have to report you to the proper lawn mower authorities.
How many years has it been since you've changed it? Lol I hope it's at least a cheaper brand and not a really good one, otherwise I'd definitely recommend changing it.
We used to buy a cheapy 20-21 inch (MTD or Yard Machines brand) mower at Walmart every 2-3 years. Never changed the oil in it and probably mowed the large front and back lawn 25-30 times each per year. I would check the oil every now and then to see if I needed to add more, but don't recall changing it. Mainly because it was such a cheap mower and the wheels would literally be wobbly and about to fall off by year 2 or 3 and the bolts holding the wheels on would be rusted/seized and usually not want to tighten or loosen. When you factor in the $100 cost of a new mower just a few years ago, four new wheels and the bolts/nuts to go with them cost over 25% of what an entire mower cost. Of course, now things are different. Now even the cheapy is pushing $200 if you don't want self-propelled.
Bought a nice new expensive Troy Bilt about a month ago at Home Depot. I loved that it had the large rear wheels. I always saw the brand on TV and thought, "I'm going to buy a really nice one like that someday." We bought it, I got it home and right after opening the box, it was already leaking oil out of the front of the motor and also out of the air hole in the filter housing. The instruction manual was written by someone who clearly wasn't speaking my kind of English and their diagram didn't make sense or explain things properly for putting the handle on. Normally, that is a super easy process, but this was a different kind of handle and different way of connecting it to the mower. I finally figured it out, but then found the leaking oil and it sprayed even more fresh oil into the new air filter as soon as it ran for a short time.
Took it back, returned it and bought the $160 cheapy MTD/Yard Machines brand, instead. Not a problem at all, had a better handle on it with no drama, etc. Sometimes more expensive isn't always better. Though now that we are beyond the $100 category and I like the new mower, regular maintenance and yearly oil changes should keep it going for at least 4-5 years. To me, the $100 one just wasn't worth changing the oil in since it would run for the 2-3 years before it fell apart and just needed a little new oil added now and then. But even though the new one is still rather cheap, I like it and want to keep it in good shape.

It cost nearly double the Troy-bilt, but might be the best purchase I’ve ever made as a homeowner. It’s simple to operate and more reliable than any vehicle I’ve ever owned. A decade later and with minimal maintenance, she still fires up with a half pull after sitting all winter.
Such a great video! These always totally make my day! Only thing that concerned me was when you used the grinder on the blade it looked like those sparks were flying right onto your hands. That just sounds like it’d hurt to me. Hope you’re ok, lol!
Thanks for your concern. The sparks did not bother me:)
yo this HITS!!!!!! unreal good! thank you! :)
I really liked this, if you have any other around the house chores you wanna film I’m sure they would also be great. The more “unintentional” asmr that you do so well is emphasized in this type of video.
Noted!
Love the video boss 😎😎😎👏🏽👏🏽
Glad to hear it
This is so relaxing
Glad you think so!
Man u should see my husband's shed lol urs is totally fine :) great video as always!!
Ugggg, wish you started it up after it being freshly maintained. Now we're left with a cliffhanger
Ooh, it’s been awhile since I’ve seen a chore video from you. I’m excited! :)
Hope you enjoyed it!
man you are so underrated
Thanks mr RelaxingASMR s2
I have to fix a John Deere that was passed down to me and it has a checklist of problems. But it will be so worth it once I can ride that baby around my yard, I can't wait.
Great great video I hope you get the opportunity someday to make more (chore) videos, amazing content! 💯
That shed is more organized than my closet.
I love that I got a lawnmower ad before the video lmao
That's a messy shed? Lol! You should see mine! I have a scythe, if you know what youre doing and have it properly sized it can be pretty efficient
It's been 5 years since we've seen another chore video! You need to do more chore videos, plus an aquarium update, a billiards game video, and a crossword puzzle video
So you liked the billiards video did you. I have really been considering uploading another one of those now that I have gotten better at it.
@@RelaxingASMR yes the billiards video was excellent! You can also consider doing another solitaire game too. I learned how to play solitaire by watching your video
Thanks for the content(:
My pleasure!
Thank you for the video, always cheers me up. Im always dreading the day you no longer upload.
Thank you, but let's not worry about things like that. If you're lucky, my son will carry on my channel:)
I think that is a truly happy idea. And very fitting, considering all of the family keepsakes you've shared with us over the years, for this channel to be passed down as well. It would be one heck of an addition.
Hi the spark plug leaks compression u can see it from the top my recommendation is to change. Thank you by the way for the video
