    My mum and dad were a great team . Grandpa was a specialist interior painter and decorator and taught them the trick of the string across the bucket for cleaning the wallpaper paste off the brush . Fortunately they passed the tips and tricks on to me . You just brought back fond memories.

    The best tip for paint cans I’ve seen is to cut the top off of a bottle and slip it over the can and shrink it on with a heat gun. Then just pour out the paint you need and screw the lid back on. GENIUS.

  • @DrParticle
    @DrParticle ปีที่แล้ว +15

    The “sander headlight” is a terrific idea. When pulling smaller pneumatic nails they break if you try to pull them out with a channel lock. I’ve had good success holding the nail with a pliers and using a hammer or small bar to lift the pliers straight up. You’re not trying to bend the nail so it doesn’t break and usually comes out quite easily.

  • @thetoolman3
    @thetoolman3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    Good tips. For pulling smaller nails, or ones that are nearly flush, i like to use end cutting pliers. The sharp jaws grip better, and they have the same rounded shape to lever the nail out. Plus they're wider than channel lock pliers, so they're less likely to dent the wood. Sliding a putty knife under the jaws prevents dents, too.

    I use System 3 T-88 epoxy for voids. It's structural epoxy that I had left over (had some dry rot outside), but It's viscous and works well for filling things like knot holes in black walnut. It's in 2 containers, resin and hardener, so you only mixup what you need.

    • @TheShooter762

      Use blue tape. Works better than string.

    • @artyb27
      @artyb27 ปีที่แล้ว

      Isn't there a risk with string that the circumference you're measuring isn't perpendicular to the cylinder's edge, and is therefore longer than the cylinder's true circumference?
      I guess tape solves that problem since it'll only go on flat.

  • @peterbarlow8912
    @peterbarlow8912 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Love the sander headlight. We used to use a raking flashlight to detail drywall for repaint. My drywall guy says it’s not flat but the illusion of flat. Like the leaving a tail on peel off backings. With regular tapes I fold the end over to leave a grip tab.

    Measuring tip: Wrap a string around the item you are trying to measure and mark the length. Put that against your tape measure to get the circumference, divide that by pi to get the diameter, and divide that number by 2 to get the radius...

    Channel locks do great for pulling nails but I've found bull nips as my preference. They tend to mar less because the nips head are broader. Also they don't bend the nail as much, so pulling the nail is straighter leaving less hole and tear out behind. Love your stuff. I am now a committed pizza hole joiner from this day forward.
