alcohol stove
This is how I store and use my lightweight alcohol stove when going on overnight hikes.
The stand was actually upside down in this video.
The cup and pot were purchased from Walmart. Cheaper that Cabela's.The stove weighs 10 grams. Use the yellow "HEET", the yellow is isopropyl, the red is methanol.

Installed a Rough Country leveling kit on my 2005 Chevy Silverado 1500. Purchased from AmericanTrucks.com I am not compensated by Rough Country or AmericanTrucks. This is not an instructional video, just an old man installing new stuff on an old truck.
Electric Home Brewery
Просмотров 9 тыс.4 года назад
A work in progress. Always making changes/improvements. Started out a few years ago with the intention of building a three pot propane setup. Changed my mind and went all electric. All brewing hardware (minus the pots) was purchased from BrewHardware.com. Everything else was from the blue or orange stores. These are 15 gallon pots which allow me to brew a 10 gallon batch.

This was my first small section hike on the Appalachian Trail in north Jersey. I started at the High Point State Park Headquarters Saturday morning and finished up at Culver Gap near Branchville NJ. I started out hiking north to the obelisk at High Point before I realized I was going in the wrong direction. It was only about a mile but I'm glad I did it. I stayed at the Mashipacong shelter over...

My Cathedral Bee Hive
Просмотров 16 тыс.6 лет назад
Built my own cathedral hive. I paid special attention to minimizing any nooks and crannies where pests, namely hive beetles, can hide. I also built it in a way where I can insulate it easily for the winter. The gap between the bars and the top is 3/4 inch. I will use the foil-faced bubble-wrap type of insulation. There's also room between the screen at the bottom and the bottom board for this i...

Moved my top bar swarm trap to the hive tonight. I'll transfer the bars from the trap to the hive in a few days. Give the bees a few days to get use to their new location.
Restoring Faded Headlights
Просмотров 12 тыс.7 лет назад
I restored the faded plastic headlights on my 2005 Silverado using acetone and a commercial headlamp restoration kit. Using the kit alone on another car didn't work out so well. I tested the use of acetone on one of the headlights on my truck and it seemed to have a much better end result. These lights are 12 years old. The bottom half of the headlights were in pretty bad shape and I really cou...

In this video I replaced the 1/8" inch copper nipples with the correct orifice. Made a huge difference in the quality and efficiency of the flame. A learning experience.
Rick's Brewery Build 2016 part 1
Просмотров 1498 лет назад
Building a RIMS brewery. I'll be using Keith Royster's design for the most part. hbd.org/kroyster/ By the way, the flame is not supposed to look like that. They should be blue. I need to replace the low pressure regulator with a high pressure one and I also need to install the correct orifice in the venturi tubes. Video part 1.5 shows where I changed to the correct orifice
so if I just want to level the front, just do the keys only, right?
At first I thought about just turning the existing bolts to raise the front to make the truck sit level but then decided to buy the kit. Mainly because I needed new shocks. I guess just installing the keys would work just fine.
I've watched several other videos on getting the keys in and out this was the most self-explanatory thank you
What a difference! Great vid, thanks.
Good video brother!
What's the point of changing the tortion keys?
Greater range of height options
Best video I have seen so far. I am actually about to go out in the yard and do this to my truck.
Thanks! Don't forget to to get a wheel alignment. The camber will be thrown off a bit after the install.
Did you get an alignment after?
Yes. Lifting the front end this way will increase positive camber.
I bet it bounces bad in the front, should have used the original keys and tightened the bolt all the way
Doesn't bounce at all. Using the original key and running the bolt all the way wouldn't have giving it enough lift.
Have you had any trouble with the cv axle boots tearing?
No problems so far
Thank you for the excellent video! Great job showing everything, the other videos leave a lot to the imagination.
One of the best videos I've seen on how to get the key off of the torsion bar, thank you!!
hows the chiller going? it looks great!
The chiller works great
Hello! Brewhouse looks amazing! Do you have the parts list or plans or video? Cheers John Yalowica
Any tension on your upper or lower control arms ?? How is the wear on your ball joints
Haven't had a trouble with the ball joints or control arms
Very impressive build ! Still brewing on this one ? Done any modifications?
Thanks D! I'm thinking of adding a third pot. If I do, I'll have to build a new control panel too. The new pot will be an HLT.
Great job on the chiller. I like your brew setup as well. 👍
This was pretty funny to me, I tried to do the same thing with the C-Clamp and sure enough it bent just like yours did.
Safety 3rd! :)
Have any plans? Very interesting build.
I'll take funky any day. Brew day is far more fun when you can burn yourself and have a nasty mess to clean up. It's like a sacred ritual and connects us to each unique brew.
hello possible to have the plans
Lindo trabalho 👏👍
Thank you
What's the name of the lift kit you purchased? Thanks

Do you have the specs or a blueprint to share....would like to make one for my self...
I built this from scratch, no plans or blueprints. The next one I build I will create some plans, maybe next spring.
Good video, a few things, the torsion unloading tool should be on sooner for relief on thread stress, same when loading. When you installed new key you checked for position on key bolt, not necessary, that kit comes with a longer bolt that you should be using. Also after install you still have a 1" or so difference between front and back. You have to adjust the front to LEVEL the truck that is the whole idea behind the kit. Hopefully your new shocks were purchased for the new height, otherwise they will not work properly and wear right out. Good quality video, glad you emphasized that getting out the old key is a bitch, especially if you live in an area that uses road salt. I used a 30lb electric hammer and knocked the torsion bar right out. Finally be prepared, excelerated wear now on front end parts unless you change out the upper control arm, with one for leveled trucks. Good job!!
Thanks fro watching and commenting. I did eventually lower the front end to make it sit level. Looks and rides better. Good suggestion on using the tool before removing the bolt. The kit I got didn't have the longer bolts but did come with the new shocks.
Any noticeable wear on the front end without new upper control arms?
I continued to run stock front end parts and did not see excelerated wear over 45,000 miles, but it has been mostly road driving. I do plan on changing upper control arms along with front axle shafts that allow for a greater articulation. Hope this helps. Good luck!
Aluminum? I'm assuming you're using this in fresh water...
Yes, local lakes and ponds on a small aluminum boat
@@Neon_Sandbox Saltwater makes almost everything more difficult.
Can I get a link to order this tool or were you got it?
You can get it from just about any auto parts store. I got mine from Advance Auto. Some stores offer it as a loaner tool.
Seems like a nightmare to sterilize.
Actually it's quite simple. I can remove the ends of the chiller tubes and use a brush with a long handle (i have a 6' handle on the brush) or I can just run boiling water with or without sanitizer through the entire system.
This is fantastic and creepy at the same time. I got on RUclips to look up ideas to build a brew table for my new all in one system. I didn’t know what to type on the search bar so I started scrolling while I thought about it. Then on my third scroll I saw this! Not even our thoughts are safe from the internet! 😂
"They" see and hear everything. lol
Your rear leafs are ready to break.
Thanks Ray. I'll get get them ordered.

Ray, how can you tell if the rear leafs are ready to break ? I'm gonna be putting this kit on my truck this summer. Thanks!
Very nice idea
Thank you! Cheers!
Great job! Thanks for sharing! I'm going to tackle this soon!
Thanks! Be sure to use the right tool. Plus, even though you're just installing a leveling kit, you will need to get a front-end alignment - camber will be off a bit.
Kenniata stile, modifide to winters times
Well done!
Well done!
The Chinese ones they sell on ebay are pure crap. A waste of "50-60 bucks", they're about 80-90 otd now. They Will get water in them, impossible to adjust, will discolor in a month! The only way to get Perfect 03-06 Classic headlights is to buy New GM oem lights at ~$300 a pop. 2nd option, wet sanding and laminX and at that you will see very fine scratches if you look very very closely. Really, just polish them with a buffer and wax, it's a truck after all not a Lamborghini.....
How many feet of pipe did you run?
About 20 feet of 3/4 inch and 20 feet of 1/2 inch

Those are some good looking sweat joints.
Do you know what the temps are on the water inlet and outlet?
Can I buy the truck
You should try the wet sanding method because that is what can make your headlights look like new
I am watching your vids and that is a wonderful idea using the Bunji to anchor your traps to a tree, that technique will be copied! Thanks for posting your videos and looking at some others, they survived their first winter! How is it going in 2029?
Too much light. I don't think the bees are going to like it.
There's little to no light when the covers are in place
I love bees. how is the hive doing??
Well...the colony I had in the topbar hive absconded and I never had any bees in the cathedral hive. A tree branch fell on the cathedral hive and busted the top. This year I made modifications to the original topbar hive and cleaned it up a bit. I caught a new batch of feral bees last month and put them in the topbar hive so we'll see how they do.
In the face of uncertainty, you're not doing bad at all........
Sorry to report that the bees absconded last year.
The way you said (no power great😐) reminded me of my dad with every mistake id make helping him as i grew up 😂
lol!
Can you use lacker
I would test a small spot first. I don't know if lacquer thinner is stronger than acetone or not. To be honest, I ended up replacing all the lights anyway. The "fix" lasted about 6 months before they started fading out again.
Beautiful work but CTP is different layers of wood glued togheter with high bond chemicals... better to use massive wood and screws or nails...
I agree about the preferred materials but I generally use what ever is laying around.
Is there a cathedral nuc box?
I just modified the lid of my swarm trap to allow the use of the cathedral styled top bars since the width of the cathedral hive is the same as my top bar hive.
Looks great! Thanks for sharing. Being a year out any thing you would’ve done differently? What plans did you use?
The only thing I would have done differently was to hinge the bottom screen panel for easier cleaning of debris at the bottom of the hive. I didn't use any plans, just used ideas found on the inter webs.
Amazing job on the video. Thanks for sharing such a beautiful area. Also love your editing skills and what you did with your channel. You have my subscription would love to have your support as well. Thanks again ATB Joe 😎 👊🏻
