Thanks for letting me make videos about things I'm genuinely interested in. Also, I'm grateful to everyone who supports on Patreon via www.patreon.com/smartereveryday . Thank you so much for your support!
Keep up the great work
Destin: your Dad's the MAN. 👍✔️ ( ... As _many_ a Dad, thankfully, IS/ARE.)
Thank you Destin!! Venturi sounds a lot like Bernoulli... Was that the original name and it got lost in translation???
To help smash up the fuel carbies have air bleeds running to each circuit. This carb has a single main circuit but pretty well all carbs have at least 2, an idle circuit and a main circuit. Running to each of the 'tubes' of each circuit is another tube with a tiny hole mounted at the air horn (intake side). This starts to airate the fuel before it gets to the venturi where it is vaporised further. It stops that droplet effect seen in this video, which increases response, economy and lowers emissions.
Yes
Mad Lad : " Try it! Try it!"
Responsible Dad: " No son , it'll explode "
Sugar dad: oh yeah son
“We’ve got a fire extinguisher!” You can hear the inner child 😄
hey, he's "pretty smart for a redneck"
I absolutely love his low-key way of saying no. Calm and explaining why.
Didn't it happen at 17:59 ?
This is why the Internet exists. Thank you (and your dad!).
Yes
Unfortunately, the Internet is used by narcissistic idiots attention seeking to reduce their feelings of inadequacy.
Please don't let Red Shirt Jeff Make a custom carburetor for your Car
@@STORMFIRE07 Red Shirt Jeff should make a Pi400 with an extra Pi4 inside.... for, purposes of course

HECK YEA
Pi4s in SLI inside a pi400!
For 2 years I passed over this video. Your title should have been "I built my own carburetor with my dad". Loved the interaction with your dad and the home made carb showing how it works was FANTASTIC.
I did too, man. This video had been recommended to me many times by CZcams, but for some weird reason I had been passing it over. Finally I got to watch it today and thoroughly enjoyed it.
I was lookin fer FIRE @08:34 is my favorite part
Same here. Then again, right place right time. I’ve been watching a lot of videos about inline 4, inline 6, V6, and boxer engines. At the same time I’ve been working on my wife’s Dodge Grand Caravan (PentaStar engine) that had a major leak coming from the oil cooler. This video came up and I said “right on time” as my interest was peaked with everything I was doing. Awesome vid!
What a smart man, your father. You can notice how humble he is also, maybe that is a consequence of knowlege. We need more people in this world like your father.
This is so stinking cool. That feeling when a demo works better than you could have hoped.
Yes
Agreed.
You must’ve watched this video the moment he posted it. He posted it 55 minutes ago and you made this comment 11 minutes ago and the video is 24 minutes long.
Enjoy your channel as well...;)
One of those crazy rare moments.
11:50 “i could get hurt?”
*Dad:* Naw, u gone tear my engine all to pieces
Spoken like a true mechanic
This is also the subtle way to say “it might explode” without freaking people out..
Goes well with “Puts a lota force on that” “Not sure it was designed with that in mind”
“It’s fine as long as you know where the relay is”
Man I'm a gearhead and have beeb working on engines and carburetors for decades. I had the same working understanding of how they work just like your dad, but to actually see it all in slow motion is some of the coolest stuff I've ever seen. Kuddos to y'all for doing this!
Im surprised some of this seems like new information to him and others, but it's cool how excited he gets about it and the effort put toward creating his vision.
As a professional mechanical engineer, I have to say well done. This video excellent, I would go as far to say it is beautiful. Not only the camera work, but the fact you did this with your father.
Do you have your PE license? How difficult was it to obtain?
""You didn't see the vapor??"
"No I was looking for fire!"
Such a dad response lol your dad is cool man
Even when you’re older, dad still thinks about the harm his son might be in over the project they’re working on.
That look on his face right there before he drops that, you know he's about to drop some wisdom. And he did, in perfect dad joke style, hahahaha
I’ve used the dry chemical fire extinguisher on an open carb! Grounding the spark plug to stop the motor may be better than backfiring your thumb.
The jet is way too big.
UNBELIEVABLE!!!
"...as a mechanical engineer..." .........just embarrasses all mechanical engineers.
Just the initial filling of the bowl is a "surprise" ???? The bowl is lower than the fuel tank. Liquid flows "down hill". Why would this be a surprise when the fuel line is connected to the bowl ????
UNBELIEVABLE!!!!! This guy is no "mechanical engineer".
"Can you run TWO cylinders off of one carburetor? .....SERIOUSLY??? Clearly, this guy IS NO MECHANICAL ENGINEER. Don't tell him it can run EIGHT cylinder and more.....oh he did tell him .....too late.
This video is great for explaining to kids, how a carbureted engine works .....but leaving out all the nonesense from this clown.
"I understand carburetors now. Yeah. I mean, I guess nobody actually a hundred percent understand it" ...... TOO INSULTING. DO NOT USE TERMS LIKE "STOICHIOMETRIC" WHEN YOU ARE SO VERY CLUELESS ABOUT EVERYTHING AS SIMPLY AND FUNDAMENTAL AS A CARBURETED SYSTEM.
"Your pretty smart for a redneck" ....how insulting coming from a "mechanical engineer".
I would summarize that this clown is looking for a way to make some money from CZcams ....because there is no other way to explain it.
"Did you see the intake!?"
Dad: "Nah, I was lookin for fire"
Such a dad 😄
At least someone is looking out for safety! Dustin is way too interested to take note of incipient infernos lol.
Dads always focus on the safety so the kids can focus on the fun. Their joy is derived from watching their kid's joy.
I am a retired Ford Master Tech and have opened my own repair shop. I really enjoyed your enjoyment making this video with your dad. Brought a tear to my eye that you can enjoy what you do with him.
Life is beautiful when u have a dad like him and a slow motion camera!
I love how Destin’s dad is like, “I love you son but not enough to destroy my tiller”.
Before this was discussed I already thought that I hope he doesn’t mess up the engine because his Dad wouldn’t approve
Perfect comment
He's making enough money on these videos that He can buy his dad a top of the line Tiller & it wouldn't even hurt him.
@@GamingHistorySource you can tell his dad is the type that doesn’t want a new tiller. He wants HIS tiller
@@GamingHistorySource Okay, Dad says, "Son, I don't love you enough to let you destroy my tiller, but I do love you enough not to make you buy me a new one unnecessarily."
"You didn't see the vapour?!"
"Boy, I'm looking for fire!"
I’m with Dad!
Spot the engineer haha
Wisdom!
dads gonna be dads
Wow! That was just beautiful! Imagine being a Yamaha engineer in 1986 who works on an engine with a carburetor. He sees the blueprints, he knows how it should work but sadly he have never had a chance to see this little gasoline drop being torn into pieces by the airflow! What a pitty so many technologies was not available to these people back then (hi speed cam, 3d printing, computers, internet)! What you recorded was beautiful! Thanks!
I already kinda knew how a carb worked but this was a neat holistic video on the minute details of how each piece interacts to function. I liked that you got to learn it with your Dad- i miss spending time with mine in the garage/shop.

@@mikerich32 uhoh
He’s his daddy for a reason
Destin: Can we we let it run wide open?
Dad: No, go to your room.
Funny
The engine will only run as fast as the points (if it has them) will close or the valves start to float (meaning they don't close). And you run the risk of the connecting rod breaking.
@@acereotero thank you for your input
I love your Dad. What a patient, knowledgeable, humble and respectful man!
As cool as this video is, and it is super cool to see all the dynamics of a carburetor, it pales in comparison to having the experience with your dad. How awesome for the both of you. Thank you for such wholesome and informative content.
Wow! I didn't know I cared about how carburetors worked until your dad started talking! Say hello to your family, especially your dad!
You probably would have blown it up ;P
@@Tsquared72 "by accident" 😂
Now blow one up on your channel
Because the engine doesn't run without a spark!...
Who read this in there head with his accent ?
When your dad said, "That's a good carburetor!" That hit different
He surely loves and misses the astonishing technology behind engines.
I liked 1 2 3 suck 1 2 3 suck 1 2 3 suck 😂
12:35
I felt this comment
Good until the fuel started eating the butterfly lol. But yea that line did hit
Honestly had goosebumps watching some of these slow motion clips. I'm so jealous and excited that young people who are interested in mechanics would have such a well explained and visual understanding of what's happening in a carburetor.
"Perpetual motion machine!"
Hands down my favorite quote from all of your videos so far
"Try it, we got a fire extinguisher!" - Spoken like a true scientist!
And his dad said no.
You do not say no to those who know better than you.
@@Markle2k Jeff Spiccoli -"I can fix it!"
Famous last words
I love the turbulent flow (and thanks for the shoutout!) but my favorite is your reaction at 19:30
Hey hey
Knew you'd show up here :)
DerekChamp
Shut up nerd, give me your lunch money
You ever get so excited you slap a mic?
I love how enthusiastic you are about learning new things. Your dad was great. Reminded me of being in the shop, working on cars with my dad.
These types of videos are brilliant in two ways. First they are educational and really do a good job of teaching people how things work. Secondly I really love the relationship you have with your father, just a wholesome watch. Thanks so much!
The relationship Destin has with his kids and his dad is what I aspire to. Destin you’re an exceptional human.
Destin's dad, you're great too!
I agree
I’m blessed to have good family
@@smartereveryday we’re blessed you have a good family
@@smartereveryday hey man, give yourself some credit. If your relationships with people are as great, it’s cause you’re an amazing person to be around.
"That's a good carburetor." -- Never has there been a higher praise given from father to son.
"I couldn't have held the light better myself" would be a pretty good one as well!
The small things in life are sometimes the most memorable and meaningful.
He's encouraging his son, no matter how old you are we will always be Dads.
Still a Mechanic Been a mechanic over 30 years this video is OUTSTANDING seriously the best you and your dad have a great dynamic between the pair of you and your Dad should be a regular on your videos, brilliant 😊
This is brilliant and watching the bond you and your father have and the joy you both share in your enginering is a pleasure to see.👍✌️
As much as I know Destin will demonstrate how a carb works really well I can’t help but wish we had the whole cut of his dad explaining it too

thats what I said, where did it go? guess he cut a little too much there lol
@@smartereveryday you know us well :)
That’s the coolest most smartest dad right there…
“Did you see the fumes.”
“No, I was looking out for the fire.”
"Most smartest" is grammatically incorrect. Its either "most smart" or "smartest". You can't have both.
@@NonEntropy I actually can have both, because I am the most best.
well you cannot argue with that statement
@@NonEntropy I think they knew that my guy
@@NonEntropy Hahahahahahahaha. I stand corrected.
That said, he's still the coolest and smartest and no one can deny that sentiment!
a truly unbelievable masterpiece. loved your interaction with your dad and his knowledge. absolutely amazing!
Close your eyes. Now, imagine having a dad that doesn't yell at you while being drunk, but instead proceeds to talk to you about something in a loving way for 45 minutes.
"I like Derek" that's wholesome content right there
"I like Derek too." ❤
10:28
The second he said “turbulent flow” I knew where he was going. 😆
You know, I thought what I liked best about Destin and his work was his enthusiasm for the subject matter. But I have come to realize that even more than that it's his love: love for his kids, love for his dad, love for other youtube creators, and love for his audience. THAT is what makes a perilous world worth living in!
Slow mo shot at 14:48 looks just like the water tentacle in the abyss. Also, what a beautiful device - engineering is so great
"looks just like the water tentacle in the abyss"
yeah, it does. just a lot smaller.
HEY! You're the guy who did a lot of the work making the kind of laser 3D printer they used right?! The engineering titans of CZcams!
Not just a great maker, but great taste in movies too, it seems.
Yes
There's nothing I love more than seeing CZcamsrs I like comment on the videos of other CZcamsrs I like. I was just watching your nine catapults video, best shop tour vid I've ever seen!
Edit: Look Destin used your 3d printer
I grew up working on carbs with my dad and while I understood the basics of the carb, it was awesome to see a see through carb. Great job explaining in detail!
Super impressive. That you created a working see through carb and then got the video to show how it all works is just brilliant. You're right, it is beautiful.
Father and son.
"Let's do it!!!!"
"Son, this will blow up."
"Pleeeeease?"
"No." lol
Lol
Proceeds to let son run it all full throttle anyway
I don't blame him. He just put a new carb on that tiller and doesn't want to also replace the entire engine! Ha ha ha ha!
Dad, let's do this
No
Pleeeeease
No

Wow! You really got some great slow motion footage. I must have watched each clip a half dozen times.
The time you spent with your dad looked pretty special as well. How nice to have it on video. 👍
you must really love mecanical engineering considering your hobby.
you?
yeah
Ayyy picking man
let's pick a lock at 28,000fps 🤓
What a beautiful video this is for so many reasons… from the spectacular super slow motion I could watch for hours to the unbelievable explanation from your father on the 4 stroke vibration in the float bowl (he was right😊) but mostly because of the amazing bond and relationship you have with your father. It bought a tear to my eye on a few occasions. Would be great to see more videos with him in it. The camera likes him!
One of the most interesting science videos I ever seeing. Also magical and beautiful seeing a father and son working together like this , the smile on their faces shows their true love for one another. They will forever remember these moments. Good job guys !
The most beautiful thing is Destin’s relationship with his father.
c:
Made me sad cause my dad died last year. Wish he could he show me more things. Died with just 50 years. Take time with your old ones, guys
@@dansemacabre4350 I'm very sorry for you loss, I know your Dad would be very proud of the person you are today
It warms my heart every time I hear Destin call his Dad “Sir”. So polite and unfortunately a lost art these days.

12:19
Destin: Put a "finger" or a "fanger"?

Watch out for FIer
I raced outboards across Canada and the USA for 30 years; now my 4 yr old grandson and I are building an acrylic kit I-4 4 stroke engine which reveals all the moving parts. He is absorbing every bit of info that he can see, but the kit does not show the venturi effect within the carb. This wonderful video is going to be my teaching tool for the next generation of family boat racers; the more I watch, the more I learn too, and I've been building racing carbs for decades. My grandson will be miles ahead of me in no time. Thank you!
I've been explaining and have been explained how a carburetor works a lot of times, a LOT and I've never ever had the chance to get this amount of clarity. Thank you and congratulations
Smarter everyday: It might be a harmonic
Dad: It's the four stroke mr college man
Then proves it by counting 1,2,3,4 with movement in the bowl corresponding with the movement of the piston.
@@charlesmckinley29 he's Dad is pretty quick to explain out whats happenin
It actually doesn't really match up though, since it would shake twice per intake pulse since every stroke is half a rotation.
Lol
@@agerrgerra1361 It's a single cylinder, so it has a primary and secondary imbalance. The first order is mostly cancelled out by the crank counterweight but the second order happens at the top AND bottom of the stroke and it's from the piston changing linear velocity while the crank's rotational velocity doesn't.
TLDR: Dad's four-count is valid, albeit counterintuitive.
"Dad can we do something cool and dangerous"
"No"
Dads are universal beings
Ok.. but „ yes, sir ! „ is way over the top and reminds me of slavery
@@kreterakete wow. You’re so mentally programmed and emotionally fragile that a son showing respect for his father is *reminiscent of sLaVeRy*. Get off the internet and go talk to some real people for once in your life.

This video shows, how important the role of father is in family. Thank you for sharing. Glad that yours relationship is so close. More moments like this to you...
This is such an awesome video. I was looking for some computer animated visual, but this was even better! Plus watching you and your dad work together was great. He seems understand carburetors literally inside and out, and I bet even he appreciated actually seeing it with his own eyes. Great job fellas. Subscribed!
"I'm gonna put a finger right there" the building block of all engineering
*Fanger
If a thumb can save a life an index can throttle an engine.
"I understand carburetors now!"
Dad: ...better *nods proudly*
I probably watch this video on a bimonthly basis. It came out when I first started really tearing my motorcycle apart, and it's such a tremendous example of how exactly carburetors work. Now I'm helping my dad out, taking apart his motorcycle with him and tuning it up.
Thank you for a wonderful video!
I think the best part of this video was the seeming you bond with your dad, I don't have the best relationship with my father but this warmed my heart. Its difficult sometimes to understand them because they grew up in different times but regardless I love my dad.
@11:40
"let's make the engine run away!"
"No."
"Why? I could get hurt?"
"Well, the engine could get hurt"
Such a dad response
It's a good rototiller! And I just got it runnin smooth with a new carb!
It’s all fun and games until a flywheel explodes
why not turning off ignition?
@@MADhaseX True, his dad could have pulled the spark plug wire, but things can go wrong very quickly, and faster than you can react sometimes.
It’s his dads tiller lol. He didn’t want to break his own tools!
i love how his father dint say "no" to him wanting to run it at full throttle instead explain what would happen if he did
And then they did.
Yeah, way too dangerous. Hey I know, just put your thumb over it! Alabama Engineering 101.
"What'ya mean you couldn't see it?"
"I was lookin for fire!"
I love Destin and his dad!
you can tell your dad loves being your dad......and that you love being your dads son and that you guys love learning stuff together. This inspired me to do more of this stuff like this with my dad that I would enjoy and I know he would too but he wouldn't do himself. I love everything about this
"I don't want a person that is paid to work on small engines, I want to learn about carburetors from my dad." Got me right in the feels, there.
was reading this just as he said it in the video LOL!! Agree with the feels part!
The "son... That's a terrible idea." look when destin said to run wide open throttle hahaha
This video is amazing. I have very little understanding of mechanical parts. Heck I'm an electrician, trying to rebuild a dirt bike at home. This video really helps me understand how this part operates. The visual understanding of it has increased so much more than any other explanation videos.
I havent finished the vid yet, but i had to stop and immediately comment: this see through carb you created is amazing. Wow... to be able to see what happens inside a carb and at a super high frame rate isnutterly amazing to this humble engineer. Bravo my friend.
I get from your other vids that youre from somewhere around the Tennessee valley. I grew up in Athens near Decatur and Huntsville. I feel a bit of a kinship with you in endless curiosity and a need to figure out how practically everything works.
MORE DAD!!! He's AWESOME!!! More dad and his FANGERS!!!
I agree, we need more Dad. And have him just bring a random item in and let's dissect it.
Would be cool if they went through the engine piece by piece, make a 3d model, and at the end would have a working see through engine that the parts list to build it, for all the screws and gaskets.
If you know the show Dr. Stone it would sort of be like that
Destroyed him lol
Absolutely!
14:01 that (full of pride) smile, when Destin realized his pa was right and he was wrong.
When I was 16 my parents car was having carburetor issues. Engine was a ford 390 with a Rochester Quadrajet four barrel carb. So I went down to the auto parts store and bought the carburetor rebuild kit for it and proceeded to rebuild the carb. My dad came home from work at noon for lunch and saw the carburetor spread all over the garage floor as I had disassembled it for cleaning and replacement of the various parts. His comment was “You know you have to have that put back together and running to go pick your mom up from work don’t you?”. I said “Yes I know.” And I had it all back together, on the engine and adjusted in time to pick her up. I learned later that this particular type of carburetor was one of the most difficult to work on. 😉
Thanks for the informative video. Keep up the good work!
I cannot express how much I learn through your videos and I am so thankful that you exist and are capable of showing us how things work. Your dad is so smart and the apple does not fall far from the tree my friend. Keep doing what you do everyday and keep learning to teach us more. I love this video and all you other videos so much!❤❤❤
8:36 "I was looking for fire" Dad will always be dad first.
Watching your dad is priceless. He's from the generation of mechanical stuff, and Destin grew up in the world of computers and electronics. The two of you are a wonderful way to understand how our lives have been changed. Watch out for that "Fanger".
This was a great video. Very informative on several levels. Building the transparent carburetor was the key to really seeing and understanding all of the principles at play. It really helped me understand the venturi effect. Seeing what was happening made the concept make sense, where a description of the effect did not really illuminate the concept the same way.
Never seen anything so wholesome in my life, a dad teaching a son.
That's how I learned so much, boy we are missing this today. Just imagine what this country would be like now
and conversely, a son teaching his dad even more!
I agree, what a great video. HIS dad's so humble and darn proud of his son.. But you can also see how much he loves his dad and also so proud of him. I loved this duo. Very cool, made my day.
@@rayjr.9187 man how right you are. What a shame, some kids these days are just terrible. So entitled, only care about themselves, don't have a bit of commen sence, don't respect their elders, and can't think for themselves. I'm so glad I grew up when I did, and had parents who taught me EVERYTHING I needed to know.
Best quote you have ever made. “I don’t want to learn from an educated expert guy. I want to learn about it from my dad.” Profoundly awesome.
Indeed.
Makes me miss my dad. Wasn't expecting to feel this from a carburetor video. RIP old man
Said by the rocket surgeon.
Simply the best demonstration, modeling and filming I've seen on CZcams thus far.
As an instructor, I will be showing this video to my students to supplement my instruction on combustion engines. This is a great video for so many reasons. What a neat memory to share with your dad too.
Your dad is cool!
I came to the comments to say the exact same thing!
No way! I love seeing completely unrelated CZcams people I watch on other channels.
Proof not all us southerners are bumblin idiots… we’ve all been born, for the most part, with tremendous amounts of common and mechanical sense…

Yeah like SmarterEveryDayThanSmarterEveryDay I supposed. Lol.
@@hartonogunawan2939 LOL
This is just superb. My first car was an Austin mini, had a carb but at that time I had no idea what that even meant. Thank you so much for such informative content!
This was such a good explanation. All of your reaction to it made the video even more entertaining. I wanted to learn how to disassemble and reassemble an engine and I heard to start off small and at first it was discouraging but videos like these made it fun to learn. Hoping to get more videos like these from you
This video taught me two things, and one of them I wasn’t expecting.
1- how important a positive father’s love and wisdom truly is ❤️
2- how a carburetor actually works 👍
Thanks for the life lessons, fellas.
Son was thinking about the carburetor.
Not thinking about what happens when a engine gets over revved up.
Internal parts breaking.
Engine goes boom.
Time to by a new engine.
His dad is the most southern man I’ve ever seen. What a boss
Funny how his accent is rubbing off on his son when they are together
@@bluewave3468 10:27 oh it is! It is!
Awesome stuff !!!! I had an abstract understanding of how the carburator works, but you guys made me understand in detail. And nice to see what a great relationship you and your dad have !!!!
The best part of this awsome Video ?
The Joy of watching Father & Son having Fun together !
My favorite part is watching Destin and his Dad enjoy this together. Seeing a father and son show how they are friends and enjoy learning together is wonderful and far too rare.
The look of concern on his dad's face when he suggested just letting it run as fast as possible was great! In truth it never even occurred to me that, without some extra equipment, an engine is liable to run itself fast enough to tear itself to pieces.
The way he said it was dad talk for "if this breaks, you're buying me a new one"
Yup... The ease in which you can disable a Governor on a little Briggsy is part of what leads to so many being reduced to junk in the hands of amateur mechanics...
On most small-engines, the governor is inside the engine, but there's a control arm that sticks out of the block, and right up near the carburetor. If you start the engine, and pull the throttle to full-speed, you'll hear the engine do a series of subtle rev up and downs instead of a constant perfect hum... It's more pronounced on older ones with a little wear. If you look close at the throttle valve (the one closest to the engine) there's a little piece of wire that keeps adjusting it down so it can't "runaway" beyond a pre-set number of RPM's.
The actual throttle control that YOU get to play with (as an operator) is supposed to attach by SPRING and just adds resistance against the governor. This prevents operators from "Over-running" their engines destructively.
Kids with go-carts quickly figure out that you can disable that governor by just removing that little piece of wire... AND so long as the engine is under a load (racing with a kid or two in the cart) you can get considerably more power out of it without blowing up... BUT it wears the engine out prematurely... USUALLY by throwing the piston rod through the side of the engine block...
In automotive engines, there are various ways they govern the "top end" so the internal parts (particularly fly-wheel and crankshaft) won't rip themselves apart, but the actual bits and formats are just too numerous for a simple YT Comment post... The little B & S engines make it SO much simpler to look for and watch as it works... ;o)
@@d3phunk37 I could see that too. He was thinking "I really like this tiller."
Runaway engines are certainly a thing.. however there are other factors that'll limit ones speed, like valves floating.
@@Yamashiro-pai most small engines have a kill switch that stops the spark plugs from sparking. The carb isn't usually used to kill the motor.
This has to be one of the coolest videos I’ve ever seen. I love the interaction with your dad, so wholesome.
Seeing the eddy’s effect as the mixture goes in through the intake manufold is so satisfying to watch thank you bro🇰🇪
"I'm really worried about back-firing."
* chokes it with his hand *
... and had some back-fire if you look closely
You can choke any carb with a hand
The one he’s holding up in the thumbnail REALLY looks like you could choke it, alone, with a box of tissues close by
I can attest, I've met Dad, he's a true gentleman. Love his inputs on this one, great collaboration
Yes
why is he running windows 10 on a MacBook?
@@calsnyder4788 because you can? It's super common to boot camp Windows onto a Mac.
@@calsnyder4788 Usually because you want windows software and apple hardware
@@calsnyder4788 cuz he bought an Apple but wanted to run something that’s only available on Windows
I miss out the carburetor thing.. I only see the lovely father and son bonding.. It's so grateful having dad like that.. sharing the same interest.. Uhhh.. 🥺😍
It’s a honor to have wisdom from your father, incredible the knowledge he knows.
Your Dad is an old school southern gentleman. So calm, cool knowledgeable and yet so humble. If must've been great growing up with him.
Very true and fortunate too
this video is an exact representation of what it should be like to learn in school. passion for the subject along with clear visual representations. thanks for all the hard work u guys put into your videos!
Many teachers agree! This is AMAZING!
The problem is we don't have things like 3d printers and the materials to make these things and help students in this manner. We wish we did! Tax papers can help!
I can barely imagine the effects it would have. So many minds excited about learning.... the synergy it would create and the creativity and improvements that would follow ??
This is how we learned at LeTourneau University. Hands on all the time.
100% agreed!👍👍👍
Books are great, learning in a classroom is fine, presentations is fine.. But first hand insight, and in depth, you can't beat that.
This is seriously one of the best videos I've ever seen. I finally understand carburetors on a deep level that was never accessible to me before. Thank you!
your dad is an amazing smart person i could pay good money to listen to him all day. great work great explaining what an amazing wise guy
I like how he calls his Dad “Sir”. It’s a little thing, but it’s a nice show of respect.
I call my mom "ma'am" sometimes lol
He's Southern. You say "sir" or "ma'am" or you get your butt whipped with a switch you have to go find yourself. :-) Doesn't matter how old you are!
