    Here's a hack that I use on mine. Get a piece of 1" PVC then slit it down about 3 inches, then use a heat gun to flatten it out and put it under the oil drain to direct the oil to whatever you want to put it in. Total length is up to you, the important part is flaring the end to fit under the bike.
    I put a lip on the flared end on mine to prevent oil from "backing up" . Can be held in place or use a wire wrap around it and tie it in place. Mine just sits there due to "interference" with other bike parts.

    @simonatkinson1107 ปีที่แล้ว +5

    The oddball item I use is old bicycle spokes. A handy length of stiff wire you can bend by hand when needed with a little hook at one end that is great for hooking that socket you’ve dropped through the frame to where your fingers can’t reach. The bonus is that it is also handy for when you need to hang things like callipers or hooking a chain out of the way when your removing a rear wheel. A standard bicycle wheel has between 24 and 36 spokes so one front wheel’s worth of spokes lasts for ages.

    To minimize reflections of your light source(s) in your glasses, raise the temples of your glasses slightly off the ear while recording. Doing so changes the angle of the front face of the lenses so that the reflection is only visible from below the camera's position. Another way to produce the same effect is to raise the light sources above the line between the camera lens and the eye(glasses) of the talking head.

    Those "solder seal" connectors seemed like a great idea when I got them but I've often found difficulty in safely blasting enough heat to melt them when used in situ like your example of repairing a harness, without risking melting stuff around them.

    @ant4812 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Tinfoil folded a couple of times to make a pad works marvellously well with a bit of water ( or kerosene ) for getting rust ( or baked on oil ) off of chrome plated parts. Really does work like magic, and doesn't scratch unless you go gorilla on a particular spot. On hard chrome, like fork tubes, it won't scratch at all, not as hard as I could go at it anyhow. I used this method to make my 23 year old sportster pretty again when I put it back on the road four years after an accident that put me in hospital for a while. I got rid of some truly crusty rust with this, and where it was very bad, there was some black pitting afterwards. It still looks miles better than before. A part that only has light, spotty rust can be restored to almost new. I only wish I'd known about this use for tinfoil thirty years ago.

    Rare earth magnets. Taped on the end of a coat hanger wire you can go 10mm fishing in the dark recesses of the engine. Taped at the base of a socket so you don't drop the nut or bolt you are installing or removing. When you don't have a grounding surface small enough for multi meter clamp to grab. clam the magnet and magnet grabs the flat steal surface.

    Love these tricks! I learned a lesson many years ago when the blower fan switch in my car failed (=no heat). I used a paper clip to jump the two wires and get the fan working. The lesson was that there was too much current running through the paper clip. While driving down the road I looked down at the connector dangling from below the dash and the paper clip was transformed into a heating element glowing bright red. I panicked and grabbed it with my bare fingers. The still glowing paper clip stuck to my fingers and left a nice little brand on my tips. Lesson learned. Yeehaa!

    Super garage tip: Vaseline works great to hold fiddly gaskets and o-rings in place. Rubber and silicone safe uhh personal lubricant also works wonders getting things to slip into or over parts. I.e. 2002 VW Golf fuel pump has a big rubber o ring and the lube helps get it to slip into its recess without tearing.

    I've been looking for a reason to grab some of those solder connectors, and 20% was just the bump that I needed. 👍

    Candle sticks. Best penetrant ive ever used. Heat up around rusted bolts enough to easily melt the wax, but not evaporate it, and it sucks it right in the threads. I used it all the time adjusting tie rods on cars. When it cools back down its like the threads have grease in them. Also, tinfoil can be used as a heat shield when using a torch
