Man has a bunker, a pee bike, and a plane. You're eveything 7 year old me wanted to be.
The pee bike was the goal that other stuff is gravy!
I assume the pee bike is cheaper and less maintenance than a porta potty or something... And as herb is a classy man, peeing in an old oil bottle is of course beneath him.
I typed this & erased it & typed it 3 times.... what is a "pee bike" & how did I miss it?
@@tl1024 Can is at the end of hanger row. Walking just might not get you there in time.
I didn't know anything about bunkers, vending machines or wifes but now I feel educated and mature enough to get myself one of each. Thanks! Greetings from Sweden.
I think they have the complete starter pack at Costco! Do they have Costco in Sweden?
@@HerbOMatic Yes, there's one Costco store in all of Sweden and it's only 20 minutes away from where i live :)
32:59 "Point at the spot you want clean" I do the same in the shower, It never works.
Don't do that you don't want silicone spray down there!
Noticed the ashtray. The days when you could smoke on a plane
4 Ashtrays! The manual is 20 pages.
I would think it's still allowed in a privately owned airplane
Gotta smoke a pack just to see what it feels like 😂
I think you can still do it so long as it is your own airplane but I might be mistaken.
Still can. Might on the first flight just in case.
Not the cake we asked for, but definitely the cake we needed.
Love the frequent uploads, dude! Keep em coming!
A big thank you, you cheered me right after a crap day, brilliant delivery young man. Gary 🇬🇧🇬🇧
Thanks Gary, glad we could provide an escape.
Interesting and funny video Herb and Kylie, your new dog pearl is very cute 👍👍
Every time I see the Avco Lycoming on the valve covers in my head I hear "Avco Lycoming huh, that's a funny way to spell Briggs and Stratton" as in "P-E-T-R-O-L. huh, that's a funny way to spell water".
Watching you drill that bolt was painful, I couldn't stop imagining that drill bit snapping every time I saw it flex a little.
Ryobi, the true choice for airplane mechanics 😂
i love all of the old 1960's style vehicles have ash trays like the one in the door of the plane.
It has 4 ashtrays, a cigarette lighter, and a 20 page manual with 8 pages dedicated to flying the plane and the rest talking about smoking and the ashtrays.
really enjoyed watching you work a bit old for it now but watching is almost as good thank you
Please never stop making videos.
This is my purpose.
You guys are so funny. I'm glad you're back!
I'm glad to be back, felt awful being away.
@@HerbOMatic hahaha
Love your humor
I love your ears.
👍✅watch lots of aviation content and this is the most interesting, informative and entertaining mechanical video I’ve seen 👏👏👏
Thanks Paratyshow, some of the aviation stuff can be a little dry, I do my best to wetten it up.
@@HerbOMatic 👍✅ Herb you are THE bed wetter for sure..... no no no sorry I meant to say the Best bed wetter!
Inrpteresting! I didn’t know you were into aircraft rebuilds. Bet that rebuild on the mill set you back at least $40K! OUCH! Those undrilled bolts are probably case hardened where so many thousands they are hardened while the deeper steel remains untreated. They drill easy once you pass the hardened area.
This seems to be the case! Butter once you get past the first little bit.
Impressed you didn't have to use the screwdriver trick on that oil filter.
Vise-Grips for hands, I make my own almond milk by just crushing almonds in my hand.
I ain’t never seen no tiddies on an almond😂
For degreasing....my dad used to be a crew chief in the Air Force, and he said some of the best cleaners they had for pretty much everything was cold coffee. I used to be "Wait you used to use cold coffee to clean the hyrdaulics ?" He'd take a sip from his mug and go "Yep" And I was like "And you drink how much of that stuff a day?" My only answer was a slurp of him drinking his coffee
Damn fine sir. Loving the upload schedule
Thank you Sir! I am trying to crank it even faster, I am still learning the editing software.
Loving the frequent uploads the recap was hilarious. Also love seeing another guy keeping what looks like a 10th gen f150 around.
I bought that truck 13 years ago for 4 grand with 80k miles it just keeps running so I just keep driving it. 2001 F150.
And I thought I’d miss the bunker videos. ;)
I... I had to pause at the end of your "recap", because I was out of breath from laughing so much. Not only are you two tremendously talented at comedy (well, your wife is, anyway), but the video itself was entertaining and even informative in spots... if only for those who are replacing blown out Mooney engines. 😋
(But as always, I'm loving everything you guys do; keep 'em coming!)
Damn your videos make me happy. Always a great day when you post a video.
Thanks Aweezle!
22:48 this music during the patron segment feels like a C&Rsenal or our own devices clip 😂
34:07 saw it coming, laughed anyway
"saw it coming, laughed anyway" what you don't want to hear after prom.
Twice as entertaining as Jimmy. :)
Come out to SE Michigan, you can show a video on a UH-1.
When that things running I double dog dare you to lay down a big burn out.
Oh Jesus ! I almost missed the Morse code message you dubbed in as the torque wrench bleeps at 20:40 !!! Awesome! :D
OK guys, I'm just f*cking with you, But wouldn't it be cool if he HAD done that? :D
You got me to expand this comment, to figure out if I had accidentally said something horrible in Morse code!
"... The next part is baffling, but I'm sure I can figure it out." How do you do it? How do come up with this stuff?
That just slipped out, I get lucky sometimes!
Herb, watching your yoga exercises. Just about as much fun as bucking rivets inside the compartments of Noordyne Norseman floats. Bags of fun, copious quantities of beer were consumed between sessions in the compartments. 😱🤣🤣😎
I would be drunk too if I had to buck in an echo chamber! Thanks Carl!
Fantastic video as always 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks Alex, I've never gotten six thumbs up before!
@@HerbOMatic Welcome, I am excited about the next part!
Aviation, it’s like owning a mopar muscle car, except you add 2 extra zeros to cost instead of 1.
The manufacturer prints a sticker puts it on a Fram filter and charges $150, Aviation!
I had to go back twice to confirm that Baffle Plug was $51.75(!!!!!) ...I swear it looks just like some some of the hardware to assemble IKEA furniture. YIKES!!!!!!!
It's ridiculous, that's why I have a million Zip lock bags and hang that stuff up, worth more than Jewelry.
I thought you found the engine behind the circle K
The Circle K, the Waffle House, and the Goodwill are back to back so same difference.
You better be careful! She might use the shape of that brush to her advantage! I think she’s just playing along because she has you pegged.
I see what you did there, she is a pain in the butt.
Back in the day when everyone had custom ashtrays and had smoke filled cocktail parties
The women were giggling and everyone was drunk.
You forgot to mention that mineral spirits are the ghosts of dead minerals.
That's pretty funny, I am not above stealing jokes, Jeff.
You got the wife too high, thats the only explanation for why she didn't immediately respond "Big fan" to "do you like the propeller?".
She was a little bogged on the spray for sure, she's usually pretty snappy.
very interesting never saw that type of spinning pliers before neat when all put together does it need to be inspected before you take it for a spin ?? love the video interesting project
He probably borrowed the pliers from the USAF and they can't find him 😄 Total red tape inspection is required but not welcome by many.
Inspection or not airplanes still fall out of the sky for many reasons. The investigators of a downed smashed up airplane tend to report it as pilot error even when it's not cause it's cheaper and easier that way.
Looks very similar to a type 1 VW engine.
They are very similar, infact some kit planes use VW engines! Some use half VW engines too.
The VW type 1 engine is really popular. I had an industrialized engine in my dimension sawmill made in Oregon.
Yep, easy bolt, just like usual. TBH, I'd never fly your planes. That totally adds up with my 2 skydivings, they were both turds planes & I'm glad I had a backpack both times.
I just hope he finishes the bunker before he tries to fly that death trap. Or that he's secretly a certified and licensed aircraft mechanic that knows what he is doing and just being silly for us. He seems to know a lot of technical terms... Fingers crossed.
@@AkihikoTakeba true, he does often slip in terms that many wouldn't catch, and he does it on other topics besides aircraft. He is totally playing us as "I'm a big dummy, ain't ya heard me talk". VGG does it well too.
If at the end of assembly you discover that it doesn't work properly, would you keep the motor or return it to Amazon?
I would, I paid the $29.00 for the 3 year lost, stolen, or damaged policy.
Would it be possible to upgrade your air compressor? Preferably something we can't hear from Mars.
I must have missed a clip, I usually try to bump the sound down on compressors.
I don't know why people like those oil-less compressors - they're oil-less, and they leave you hearing-less as well.
Maybe one of you airplane buffs can clarify this but I always wondered why not have four or five bladed props...won't they push more air?
More blades = more drag. 2 blades is the most efficient number if they can be long enough to use all of the available engine power. 3 and 4 bladed props are usually seen on higher powered engines where making the most efficient use of the power would require blades that are too long for a 2 bladed design. You don't want the props too close to the ground and you don't want the tips going supersonic.
That's right!, there is some evidence that a counter-balanced single bladed prop would be even more efficient but they are dumb in practice due to uneven thrust.
When you say OUR does that make us viewers of your video part owners so we can come borrow your airplane for say a Las Vegas, NV 7 day and night stay? By the way, You'll be our pilot and pay for the fuel cause your 51% vested. 🥰 Love Ya
OMG I love you too we should be together. It will be OUR plane.
Mmmm Cake 🍰🍰🍰
Making me blush
How did you come about your aircraft mechanic know-how?
AND WHAT?!??? I thought the first epidose of this series was mega old or somethin, youtube never told me about the first one, apparently!
The first episode of this series was about a week ago
Where did you learn to work on airplanes?
9:42 you did 4 and a half..
clearly playing with your wire
You can have my Gameboy over the weekend if you don't tell my mom.
This guy watches AgentJayZ.
I love his song Dirt off your Shoulder.
I found this video baffling. Must have been the silicon spray.
That spray is a slippery vice.
1st comment.

The problem with that Tri Flow is if you use too much her pump will overheat and she'll leave a puddle.
That's exactly why I like it.
Are you an *_A&P,_* you sure act like you are one!!!
I too was wondering this. If not what is the process for this restoration?
@@Clickmaster5k If he is not an A&P he can do the work if he gets an A&P to sign off on it. Most A&P's won't because their *_ASS_* is on the line if something is not done correctly and the airplane has a mishap!!!
@@onmyworkbench7000 Ya I'm curious about that process of getting an A&P to sign off. Do they want to come inspect at various points to make sure it was done right, Is he video documenting and that's getting reviewed? Can you do all the work then just get some sort of return to airworthiness inspection later or does an A&P really have to just redo all the work to get the plane flying?
@@Clickmaster5k I can't answer that, it would be up to the A&P as to how the A&P wants to handle it, I would think that a responsible A&P would want to inspect all of the work at the various points to confirm that it was done correctly.
The A&P need to remember that he's responsible for whatever he signs off on as if he did the work himself!!!
@@onmyworkbench7000 Yep, that's why I'm curious about how that specifically is being handled in this case. Seems like a fun project but you would need to be or be buds with an A&P it seems like.
Hold up, you clean up for a date? Well, shit...
