You look so much healthier again, hope you're doing better man!!!
I was screaming "It's upside down!" smh I do the same thing from time to time. Great content by the way! I always learn something from your videos
It's funny when you don't know someone but your'e glad they're looking and feeling better. Keep it up Bro :)
You should test the drills under load, sometimes they spin fine, but the gears slip the second they are under load.
A lot of instances, if the package includes 2 batteries and one of them is dead, the store does not have a way to give you just a new battery, so they take the entire package back and give you an entire new one, even if everything else in the box works as it should. A bit of a waste, but it is what it is.
Hey Steve, to fix that Rigid battery you could try charging the lower cell manually to match the other 3, that may very well fix the problem!
As a contractor, you have a huge market with tool repair IF you price it right. I repair my own stuff and have made some cash repairing switches and reflowing battery packs. Lot's of armatures, windings, hall effect sensors, and different types of switches. Might be worth having an apprentice or motivated cousin who can be taught to repair them to help you start taking a step back? Love your vids and you're work, you've helped a bunch of people, myself included. Glad to see you look like you feel better.
I used to buy pallets like this from Walmart and Home Depot...I used to do really well with them, but I got burned really bad on the last 6 that I bought so I quit messing with them...The ones that I used to buy were purely store returns, but people scam them so much on returns now, that it's just not worth it!
I was sooooo happy when you said a Craftsman tool hoping it was a 16 gauge finish nailer so I could watch you fix it and see if I could buy it off you to add to my Craftsman V20 collection. Watching you open the box and seeing two broken dewalt, I was stunned someone would even do that. Hope you get most of your money back on that pallet.
Hey Steve, glad to see you're looking all better. The issue with the Ryobi brad nailer is that that the brad nails go to the front end of the magazine, not the back. The hammer hitting the brad nail at the position is in the video may cause the nail to shoot in to the magazine, that's why the tool protects itself.
Steve, on the Ryobi brad nailer, generaly you need to posistion the nailer where you want it with the safety engaged befor you pull the trigger.
Hi Steve, glad to see you looking healthy again. Regarding the angle grinder-key steel is readily available, just measure, buy and cut to size. No different to any other shaft/sprocket setup. Wishing you all the best and keep it going, love your videos.
My ryobi's have been beat, dropped, abused and neglected for over 10 years. For inexpensive drivers, they work.
That's why I like to buy from manufacturers that have spare part diagrams with part numbers. Regarding the two DeWalt sanders: They may be fixable, DeWalt does sell spare parts. Not too sure about the batteries, once they're cooked, they very likely will remain cooked. Makita batteries have a chip that locks them up if they fall below a certain voltage. Very pleasant video to watch, looking forward to part 2!
Before i watch this video i want to say this is a really unique idea and i cant wait to watch, i love your new ideas for repair video's thank you for your dedication and hard work especially during your health issues. You are a awesome and kind person!!
Love these new "exotic" repairs, not just consoles!
Those are all classic home depot returns..the green RTV tag is the dead give away.. Some will be used and broken items that customer switch up and remainder will be suprisinly near complete and fairly funtioning tools if not almost perfect. Many customer will buy incorrect goods and or use for one day and return them. Home Depot has a very easy return policy. If you read the back of the receipt and are familiar w/ how the home depots hands some of the brands when returning Them Ryobi is owned by home depot via an auxillary parent company. So its cheaper for us to just sell it off in bulk.
Dude you are looking much better than the last video of yours that i saw,which was a few months ago.i hope you feel much better too
Steve is out of control 😂 Love it.
