Harbor Freight's 30" Pedestal Fan Review
Thank you 🙂
I want to know how your hair is fabulous bro.
Good video not all icon products are top line. Do some project videos
I will be soon as i have a order coming - thanks
I carry a Gerber, but I would consider the icon. Like you I have a bunch of different razor knives for the shop.
you could not find the icon knife in stock earlier this year
I am sure its a good knife but it is not something I need at that cost.
Mine came with bolt on wings but the cart with Folding wings works great
According to the box it weighs 54lbs
Also has wheels for mobility
The DYI stand also has the wings
Have you seen the DYI miter saw cart? I built one and it works pretty sweet. I did Bolt my Saw to the stand
no but ill look into it - thanks
Can that little tip at the end of the straw be removed?
I use the 3/8 goodyear hose as a water hose because I need something more compact abd don't mind the very slightly reduced water volume. Also use it for my on board air in my truck. A few probs is they get dirty and aren't always that easy to coil up (ya I know I'm a bit of a crybaby I want everything easy wahhh). You really didn't review the flexzilla at all though I was hoping for an actual opinion between flexzilla and good year air hose as I need to buy another. I don't really trust hybrid hose only trust a real rubber hose so probably will stick with what I know works.
I'd like to point out that Sellars TOOLBOX brand shop towels aren't exclusive to Harbor Freight. They're also available at Menards, Home Depot and Lowe's. I have only used Sellars TOOLBOX shop towels before as it's the only brand sold at Menards. I have the dispenser from HF also, and I've never had an issue with it. The only way I can see an issue with the dispenser is if someone mistakenly threads it using the towels from outside the roll instead of from the center. I have it hung upside down on my shed door and another in my garage. I thought the rags didn't hold up very well the last time I used them, so I will check out the Scott brand shop towels. I think I might be able to fit the box dispenser towels into the plastic Sellars dispenser, certainly worth a try. Home Depot sells both brands with the Scott priced just a little higher on average. As an aside, Home Depot has the Sellars TOOLBOX brand white rags plastic dispenser and refills available in stores by me. The refills are cheaper than Harbor Freight by two dollars and the dispenser is cheaper by one dollar.
I just wanted to thank you for this video. I recently bought my first mig welder and your video really helped me out..
I've noticed the towels fall apart too when I use them. I also have the actual Scott Shop Towel brand and they don't do that.
Good video
your best option is to use Nylon or Poly Dacron instead of Polypropylene for anything you want to last and have strength
Polyester rope is the most UV resistant and longest lasting for outdoor use.
Good video heat shrink tubing can be used to finish the ends of rope to keep it from unraveling. More videos
That is a good idea........thanks
I think I need to report somebody to the United States postal service for allocating and misusing postal service property 🤣😜
I think you are correct and you should. However, you should just buy everything at once that you see that way you have evidence.
@@TheHomeHandyman I guarantee you I'm not on USPS side for much at all...
@@xephael3485 On the bright side you will have a inventory or horseshoes and spikes...........LOL
Hey Sir. I love your videos. You’ve saved me a bunch of money since I’ve been subscribed. May I offer a tiny constructive criticism? Please buy a microphone. You don’t have to spend a lot on it. Just something that will give you a bit more volume. Thanks again for the videos.
Thank you - I am working on improving my audio so i hope soon it will improve........
What do you think about your son? He seems very misguided and needs help
Good video
Thanks😀
Good video
Thank You
My experiences exactly. Thanks!
I agree Menards had a great saw that was free after rebate. Nice cats
I've been searching for a couple of years for a decent countersink to debur and bevel the edges of holes drilled in steel. Normally I resort to using a much larger twist drill bit than the hole I'm drilling and use the large bit as a countersink. Last week I did buy some of the Harbor Freight countersinks just hoping to get a use or two out of them in a pinch.....and that's about exactly what I got. In all my searching the best value I've found is the tungsten countersink burrs from Benchmark Abrasives. They are sold on Amazon or directly from their site. They are the only countersinks I've found that last more than a couple of holes and the price seems reasonable. Any other recommendations would be appreciated...
I actually buy a lot of my abrasives disc's etc from Benchmark Abrasives and I should have mentioned them but forgot. Benchmark is a very good company that sells quality products. I will try them myself in the future.
I agree- you have to shop around to find tools that will do the job. I have a set of those HF countersink bits but they don't work very well. I don't know if it is a problem with hardness, I think either they don't come sharp enough or they have a bad shape. My little DeWalt countersinks work very well, never had to worry about sharpening them. Maybe I'll try sharpening the HF bits. I just use them on wood so maybe they could last longer.
I should have mentioned that on Amazon - Benchmark Abrasives sells tungsten bits that would also be a great choice
Good advice
If their countersunk bits I like the other ones I've used from China they're pretty bad for wear and tear... But if you get them cheap I suppose that doesn't matter
Good tips
I’m glad you made this topic. I’ve always got the bags of black ties, big bag variety at harbor freight and they been great until the last time I went in.. I’ve bought several bags and they have been breaking. Also nail clippers work great for chopping the ties flush with no sharp bits. I wonder how the ties at ACE are?
Good video. I use flush cutters to trim zip ties to make the cuts snag free prevents cuts to my hand when working around them
Good short video
On the restocking fee, if the item is broke and you are just exchanging it they don't do the restocking fee. I have been in that spot with a drain snake. I have the handheld corded Bauer and the manual feed blue one. I had to warranty out the Bauer and they just gave me a new one. No fee and I did get the option to buy a new extended warranty. I have also know people that have a solid relationship with there stores and the manager waved the restocking fee but that is a case by case so again the moral of the story is to be nice to your managers and it could pay off. When the managers at my two favorite stores aren't busy I try to tell them how much the latest deal or bargain helped me. Full disclosure my brother doesn't have the same experience at the one near him but the managers barely give the time of day and he has trouble seeing items restocked regularly.
I agree with you that having good relations with the staff and manager goes a long way in helping you when you need it. I know not all stores are like this but i make it a point when i go in tol talk to the staff and manager when i can even if it is to just say hi. I look at that drain snake you talked about and thought it may come in really handy but have not made the purchase yet because i wanted to hear more about the product and if it was any good before buying. Again, this may be one of those items you want the warranty on for sure.
I sing think they make this set anymore. Reminds me of a Quinn set from Harbor freight
Ty
No need to add oil on that Daytona and the handle is upside down. Manual, read it. They're good jacks for the money.
This helped me a lot
Did you get a different mic from what you used to use? Cause your videos are so hard to hear now. Thanks for all the informative videos
Yeah i need to figure this out thanks
my right ear loved this
I will look into that i didnt realize the sound issue - thanks
My dad gets the military discount at Home Depot now.Has the ap on his phone he filled out online
Good to know
Good video great tips I use Menards more than home Depot
Yeah in my case we do not have a Menards around here. But possibly some of these ideas may work at Menards.
Menards does not have the discount and their rebate system is a pain
Oh boy. This video was drawn out. It could've been 4 minutes.
But it wasn't and you still watched it even though you have the opportunity to simply not watch it at all.
You hit the nail on the head with this one. I wish Amazon and other retailers would limit reviews and ratings to verified purchases. Walmart ratings/reviews are really bad in this regard.
It is really to bad that you can not truly rely on any of these reviews. At best try to sort thru them and see which are probably legit and which are just paid reviews.
I bought the 500lb table and had the problem of the table not going down when the handle was squeezed. Being familiar with hydraulic pumps and rams, I did not read their instructions on bleeding, merely added fluid and bled the air out. But the table would barely creep down when the handle was depressed. Me and a friend picked the table up and placed it on my workbench. I put the table up and locked the release handle to the full down position. Next was to check how far the swivel mechanism was depressing the plunger when the handle was depressed. I then pushed a common screw driver between the swivel and plunger and levered the plunger further down. The table top started coming down at a very nice rate. I then adjusted the cable ends to the extreme out position and the top comes down at a rapid rate (just fast enough for me). I have also heard (and experienced) about models with the rubber plug on the oil fill being extremely hard to get back in. When I had the table on the bench, the plug was removed and the level checked. Afterwards I took some sandpaper and rounded the very bottom edge where in would just fit in the hole. As I was reinstalling the plug, I noticed inside the whole there appeared to be two of three threads. I then put the plug into the hole and instead of trying pushing it in, I screwed it in and it went right in with no hassles. I think the manufacturer would have a lot less returns if they would just go over possible problems in the manual (and have an english speaking engineer write them), as most are easy fixes. Of course you are paying for it to perform properly out of the box, but, in many cases fixing small problems are easier that a return and possible wait for another one.
Thank you for the information this should help others.
Your audio is mono, if you're recording with your phone the case or holder may be interfering with the microphones. Thank you for the content, I have been curious about these clamps
Yeah im using a camcorder and have to get better control on the audio - Thanks
That sucks I just bought one and I was going to change my mind cause I could see the bowing happening in the middle
Just be careful not to over tighten them.
Can ypu make good extrra money selling cofee tables like 2 by 2 or so 3 ft tall ?
Depending on your area and price you are going to ask I would say yes - Take photos and show them around which i what i do and have many photos on my phone and show them. It works for me and probably would for you also.
