Always had bailing wire around when I was a kid. My dad was a old farm boy so he used it for everything. You made me wonder were he got it. We lived in town. He always loved auctions or he had a lot of friends that were still farmers so maybe both. It held up a lot of exhaust pipe on my cars when I was a teenager. Thanks for your service.
My wife buys picture hanging kits and there is always a length of steel braided wire we never use. I use that wire for my old wooden file handles to fix or reinforce. Mr. Pete had something similar a few weeks ago, very cool to make your own tool. Happy Veterans Day everyone.
I loved it! That story about salvaging copper from the dump genuinely made me punch the air here watching the video! I love that kind of thing! As a kid I loved digging though any kind of scrap pile/dump for bits of metal to play with, I’ve liked heavy metal stuff for as long as I can remember. I remember taking rebar drops (from the shear) from construction sites around where I lived, and using them to dig holes when I was a kid. It made some of the other kids with their plastic shovels quite jealous, because my steel tools (scrap metal) didn’t break like their toys😆
Saw these tools awhile ago and wanted to build one. Admittedly I like the one piece design that is available better (like at the start of your video), but the design you made is just so simple and easy to do. Amazing also how you keep all that random stuff so organized! Thanks for another educational video! 👏👏👏
Good old baling wire. As far as I know hay bale hooks were designed because of baling wire. I worked a few loads of small round bales baled on the old Allis Chalmers Roto Baler. They were heavy and the wire ripped up your hands quickly especially a kid with uncalloused hands. Baling wire is where the term haywire came from. Rebar wire is handy. Glad you built the clamp rapper.
Your easy to make bailing wire tightening tool is a very simple tool idea that works ! Placing heat shrink tubing over the mechanical wire splice covers any sharp wire ends .
Baling twine was a big part of my childhood crafting and woods bumming. It's great stuff, but it's not baling wire. Baling wire was gooooood stuff. The farm I grew up on had transitioned to twine, but there was a new spool of baling wire forgotten under my dad's work bench. Good stuff! I'd come across it in junk heaps and dumps in other farms too, I miss those days.
Happy Veterans Day!!! 😃👍
"When people use to park in my driveway, I use to take their antenna." LOL.
I just put a spool in my car for the winter months. That same night, A coworker's wheel-well plastic was falling off. I told her, "I can fix that!'

You are such FUN! What a character and very creative one at that. Love our video and plan to watch more of them if you makem..
My dad always had some bailing wire in the garage! I can’t even count how many times I’ve used it. I have a roll at all times! It’s like duct tape!

Awsome vid!!! Ive seen tools wrapped in wire but never done
Hi Scout. ...thanks for putting this together. Great Grandpa still comes in handy! !!! From Army to Marines. .....thank you for your service.
One of the top best videos.
Great job on the hammer. Learned something new today...Your videos are more valuable that going to college for four years.

Happy Veterans Day to you and all . Love that wire clamp tool. Will need to make one. Thanks

Boy, are you going to have a fun time packing up all of your stuff when you move to your new home.
