    Good idea about taking a picture before taking it apart! 😊

    Someone once gave me a tip if you put a little vinegar in your cleaning water it helps so much to break down the yuk. IT really works great cleaning falcos and other tools.

    Good morning Jenny, I’ve learned from my dad a long time ago to take pictures along the way just in case you forget how to put them back together.

    Just what I needed! Mine need some serious cleaning and sharpening. Love that little tool and sharpener in one! I'm like you. I have both the 2's & 14's. Love them. Thank you for the demonstration. Very helpful.

    When I cleaned mine this spring I watched videos over and over while doing it. Yours will be one I watch next time I clean then. 😊

    What a great video! The other day you mentioned doing a Felco maintenance video, and I’ve been waiting excitedly ever since! I’ll be ordering that handy dandy tool very soon! My felco 2’s and snips are in desperate need of some TLC!

    Thank you so much for this tutorial/walkthrough! My husband surprised me with a visit to your nursery while traveling in North Carolina. I purchased the Felco 905 while there. It was the perfect all-in-one tool for this.

    Thank you for doing this video. It was very helpful. I got out all of my pruners and scissors out and cleaned them today. I glad you made it and not Jerry. You gave us lady gardeners confidence to do it ourselves.

    Thank you Jenny for the step-by-step instructions and especially the Felco 905 sharpener tool tip!

  • @tamilewisbrown1
    @tamilewisbrown1 Před 10 měsíci

    I've used Felcos for decades, with a regular sharpening steel, but that 905 tool is a game changer! I ordered one even before the video was finished. Thanks, Jenny!

  • @annelarson160
    @annelarson160 Před 10 měsíci

    Loved your video--great job! I was so sad when I misplaced my 20 year old Felcos during a recent move! I couldn't live a week without them! I always know where they are now--never again!

  • @annriggle1945
    @annriggle1945 Před 10 měsíci +1

    Thank you for making this video! I needed the reminder. Always so intimidated to clean them! I just ordered all my supplies from your website. I’ll get busy as soon as I get them! Thank you!

    We enjoy you folks, but just a suggestion. As a mechanist/fabricator I suggest to please focus the camera on the parts and the job, not on the presenter. We all know what you all look like, the task and the parts are the most important part of the instructions. For folks who are not mechanical, the close up visual of the parts is very important. Taking the videos from across the porch looks nice but folks need to see exactly what you are teaching.

    • @GardeningwithCreekside
      @GardeningwithCreekside  Před 10 měsíci +2

      Fred the thing is we showed multiple close ups of those parts throughout the video. Thanks for watching

    Jenny thank you so very much for making this video! I have the number 2 Felco and I’ve been afraid to take it apart and clean it thinking I might break it. Now I can be more confident about it. I’m so excited to be able to get my Felco maintenance items from you all.😊

    Thank you for this video Jenny. I have it saved in my Garden folder to refer to. I have the Felco 14's and they are so easy on my small, old, crooked, arthritic hands.
    Just placed an order from you for all the cleaning supplies for my Felco's. (Also ordered the Felco snips since I now know I can sharpen them as well.) Thank you for always informative videos! ❤🦋

    My sweet hubs bought me felcos for xmas. They came with A tiny little gadget, blade?? I'm not sure what it was for, but sadly I lost it. I really think Cactus Jack, the cat, knocked it Into the trash can, he did my 40+ yr old embroidery scissors too 💔, yes I'm not leaving stuff on that table anymore, sorry, I digress. Would you please explain that little piece? Thank y'all for all your leadership in the world of plants.

  • @AttnDefDis_
    @AttnDefDis_ Před 10 měsíci +2

    What was that other spray? You set it aside and said you'd come back to it, but I never saw that happen. Unless, I missed it.

    Is there any hope of restoring rusted Felcos. A friend borrowed my #6's and returned them in a rusted condition. They must have left them out in the weather. 😢 Should I just buy a new pair (and never loan them again!)?

    • @kathymomcilovich2939
      @kathymomcilovich2939 Před 10 měsíci

      I’d say try the cleaning routine & see if it saves your falcons. Work hard with the steel wool on the rust so it gets smoother. Can’t hurt to try & save them!! Love those Felcos!!

    • @rondatignor2300
      @rondatignor2300 Před 10 měsíci

      @kathymomcilovich2939 thank you. Might try this. I think I did hear Jenny say if they are rusted, it is pretty much hopeless. A friend suggested I soak them in vinegar first. On thoughts about that suggestion?

  • @tinakennedy7798

    I wish I had know this before I ruined the upteen pruners I’ve thrown away over the years. Adding to Santa’s wish list!

    I am glad you did this video! My Felcos are way overdue for the spa treatment. Thanks! Also, have you ever had the auto-generated captions up and played one of your videos? It is so cute how it interprets your Southern accent! :)

    Will you be adding the Felco Kit No. 933 to your store at your location and on line? I purchased one and it is a unique kit.

    If you kept the packaging of your felcros it contains a little gadget for loosening the screws.

    Jenny,
    The Felco 980--is that a petroleum product? I have asthma & need a tool cleaning product w/out VOCs/chemical fumes.
    Thank you. 😊

    I would recommend using rubber gloves also! I can’t use steel wool pads - my hands tear up!

      ​@@GardeningwithCreeksideGood morning Jenny😊 I love your gardening tutorials! I have to include the music you let play while cleaning your Felco tools today. I would like the name of the song and artist please. That's good traveling 🎶. Thank you and hope to see you soon. I'll be coming from winston salem.

  • @n.w.414

    Really you shouldn’t use water to clean your felcros

    • @GardeningwithCreekside
      @GardeningwithCreekside  Před 3 měsíci

      It’s okay we use the grease, just remember plants are made of water so ever time you cut on a plant it puts water on the clipper 😀 Jerry
