I have a round honeywell manual thermostat. The most reliable thermostat ever. My current one is over 20 years old, and still works well. In the early 90's i bought a fancy digital thermostat from home depot. It lasted 2 years. It was replaced with the round honeywell, which is still going strong. Laugh all you want...
Tip when drilling / nailing into plaster walls, place a small piece of masking or painters tape where you are going to drill. It will help minimize the plaster cracking / mess.
Man love that 2 prong extension cord going to the door opener haha just as a FYI not sure if you have a costco near you but they do sell some linkable led shop lights with pull strings that could be usefull if you dont have a plan yet on better garage lighting, either way good luck, im just 2 years into my house and the projects never really end. Mine needs a new roof now
Roof project is taking longer than I ever seen. I guess your roofer is doing other jobs too? Surprised no Nest Thermostat. You should really just get a proper extension cord for that garage door opener. If the door functions and fixed now, just keep it and put some new seals around the door. You have a lot more projects to mess with. Great video and keep posting more soon.
I will be rewiring the entire garage ASAP! The roofer is taking a looong time, but it's being done right (I hired him specifically for his attention to detail, and I do believe he has other projects going). I will NEVER install a "smart" thermostat. Absolutely NEVER. I also take a firm stance against "voice activated assistants." Actually, if it were not for TH-cam, I'd probably skip having internet at home entirely.
@@bbishoppcm I think a thermostat and security cameras outside as far as I go. I do have my Plex server, but I don't believe in locks or smart speakers or TVs. How invasive ad tracking and internet tracking goes, I do use a VPN more. I do miss how the internet was the more carefree place it was in the early 2000s. Anyways, the house was surprisingly coming along. The first videos of it were rough, but it's shaping up. Bidding wars on houses are finally slowing down where I live. The bathroom flooring will be the most interesting and might be the most laboring along with the kitchen. Be careful of deer mice droppings(Hantavirus) with the garage.
Looking forward to seeing more on this clock. In the next 7 days I'd imagine! Your new home appears to be coming along quite nicely as well. Also who knows, you might find some old cash hidden within the walls, just gotta explore and find out heh!
I've been meaning to get one of those digital thermostats for my grandma's house. hers is an old mercury one and it needs to be goneski, it's hard for her to read and my brother keeps messing with it. time to go digital.
Okay certainly that trailer you grew up in didn't have a garage door how is it you have such an extensive knowledge of everything?! I'm sorry to see that your frog isn't doing well. I hope she doesn't suffer too much
What soundbar did you get? Also, what receiver and speakers were you going to use? Do you think you'd plan on upgrading your TV anytime soon, or are you not that big of a TV watcher? It's clearly a plasma, so it'd be as good as some of the cheaper led tvs today
Unless if you really hate the clock you're working on, never, and I mean never use WD-40 on a clock movement, it pastes up over time, gets all sticky and green, as well as becoming abysmally difficult to get out of there even with an ultrasonic machine.
Don’t throw them away get them professionally repaired there nothing specially very common all they need is to put in beat or there gonna stop or look up on youtube
These clocks aren’t worth restoring; I don’t work on spring driven clocks, and won’t pay someone to do it unless its a particularly rare, beautiful, or valuable piece. In the end, I hid the clock under an attic floorboard where it will remain for eternity.
@@bbishoppcm are clock are worth restoring if you don’t use you should give to someone who will spring driven are not really hard to work on when I first started relating I used wire and that worked never had an issue as long as it’s done correctly you will find and I am 13 it always a good project when you have some extra time laying around
@@jackdupont1883 it’s refreshing to hear that someone your age is tackling these clocks. I am 37, and know what can happen when things go wrong servicing spring-driven clocks - it’s not worth it to me. People, even professionals, have been badly injured working on these (tools can slip, mistakes happen) Be VERY careful! As far as this clock is concerned, it’s a 1930s Seth Thomas mantle clock - these are a dime a dozen. I’m not planning on giving it to anyone - it came with my house, and that’s where it will stay. I already have a good running clock from the same era (a rebranded Seth Thomas that was sold under the “Tilden-Thurber” name for a luxury goods store with an unusual connection to Lizzie Borden). If I ever service another spring-driven clock, it’ll be that one.
I have a bigger roof than that and had a double layer teardown and the decking replaced on my garage and it still was done in 2 days. Maybe it's taking longer to do it in the colder weather. They are harder to cut/bend/nail and should be tabbed down/sealed by hand with an adhesive because the built in strip won't be sticky enough in the cold.
Seems like it could also be a suspention spring issue, either there isn't one in the parts clock, or it's just out of beat. As, i'm sure you're aware, there needs to be an even swing from left to right and back again, otherwise the clocks won't run/keep even time. The first clock, the one that runs for 7 days or so probably may need a new time side main spring. However, if it looks good, then don't replace it unless it's looking bad and you've or your clock guy have determined it's time to replace. Abnd like ya said, if you're not comfortable working on spring driven clocks, then it's great to take them in to a shop to get repaired. Keep those new house videos coming, and look forward to see what kind of project you'll find next!

Place looks great, very warm and cozy looking.
Glad to see you decided to restore the clock! I love those little Seth Thomas clocks.

I would, but the tape will rip the paint clean off! (tried taping off a section... yeah... didn't end well)

Nice mental clock! I would not be surprised if it is original to the house. That style of clock is my personal favorite.
When you replace the garage door opener get a Liftmaster you will thank your self in five years
I just happened to watch you video on that clock from years ago the other day. Weird coincidence.
Looking forward to seeing more on this clock. In the next 7 days I'd imagine!

It's the clock from Matilda!
That clock is familiar just like in Matlida the movie I remember seeing that clock in the movie
Okay certainly that trailer you grew up in didn't have a garage door how is it you have such an extensive knowledge of everything?! I'm sorry to see that your frog isn't doing well. I hope she doesn't suffer too much
Our house is the same, lol
That Plaster-Drywall can contain asbestos.

@41:36 Ghost?!
quite possibly - I'm sure the spirit would love what he's done with the place...

Yes, this is 100% fact. I only wanted to see if I could get that thing running for fun.
Talk about that wall clock, my dad has one that I will probably inherit when hes gone. is that one a weight clock? beautiful antiques!
I have the same Pyrex bowl. I knew I recognized it from somewhere....
They spray the plaster on because it's a fast and lazy way to cover up the dry wall tape.
house is looking great!!
You forgot to recap that gas can. ono
My Dad has that exact same clock!
I want to know whats up there so bad now...
my house built very similar here in the uk, it's a pain sometimes especially when trying to hang radiators
Do you still got that clock in 2020 and does it run still

@@bbishoppcm great you take care and if you have some time make some more clock videos ! God Bless
The roof is still not done on the house?

Obviously since there's date code, you have a Chinese knock off.
