Baby Letto Crib To Toddler Bed Conversion
I like those drawers under the crib. What model / brand are they?
The drawers actually came with the crib. 👍
It is crucial to avoid spraying a dirty coil from the outside, as this action inadvertently forces debris into the interior of the coil, making it exceedingly difficult to remove. The appropriate method involves refraining from using the spray can previously utilized. The spray in question is intended for an evaporator coil, not a condenser coil. Instead, one should employ a specialized condenser coil cleaner, typically available in a 1-gallon container that requires dilution with water. This cleaner is essentially acidic; apply it and allow it to sit for no longer than five minutes. It will generate foam that effectively removes all contaminants from the exterior coil, which should then be followed by a thorough flushing with ample water from the interior to the exterior. This method would have significantly reduced the time required, leaving the coil in pristine condition.
Those are tongue and groove pliers. Channellok is a brand.
That’s very interesting, I did not know that. Out in the field everyone always just calls them channel locks, or channel lock pliers but thanks for the info 👍
good
Thank you!
For house? Video garbles and is very blurry in spots. 😬
Yeah I was at a job and just started running the video off my phone. Thanks for letting me know though 👍
this guy!
Trying to drop that knowledge 👍
Thank you so much for your video 👍🏽
You’re very welcome 👍
Gracias!Siempre uso estos hooks y me duran mucho pero es la primera vez que lo voy a hacer como lo indican las instrucciones.
Awesome, great job 👏
My ball joint nut is not connected like yours. I can’t figure out how to get it to stay in.
Hmmm, not sure without seeing it. Good luck though:)
Thank you for the video! I had to turn the volume all the way up to hear you, and then the music at then end destroyed my eardrums. Perhaps keep that in mind for future videos. I still really appreciate you taking the time to show us though!
OK thanks so much for the feedback 👍
Awesome!
Thanks brother 👍
What happened to the old one
To the dumpster:)
Thanks for doing an informative video.
You’re welcome, glad it was helpful!
keep up the good work bro!
Thanks brother :)
Thank you
You are very welcome!
Thank you legend
You are so welcome!
Thank you
You are very welcome:)
Alright now how do you sleep? Because my two year old keeps getting up at five am now.
Yeah it varies:) sometimes he gets sick or something so he ends up back in our bed, and then it’s another couple weeks before we are saying, we should probably get him back in his bed again:) and now with another one on the way, it is a must!!
Thank you for your video!!!
You’re so welcome!
Very helpful! Thank you!
Awesome! Glad it was 👍
What about fortifying it with a little phosphoric acid rust remover?
What do you mean? Can you explain further?
In its thickened form it’s often called Naval Jelly. It’s also sold in liquid form, Evapo rust, OSPHOG, Rustaid, look up phosphoric acid rust remover or converter-it’s EXPENSIVE though. I was thinking mixing the two?🤔
@@mechanicsfornonmechanics8998 I refurbish old bicycles for sale and they often need rust removal.
Yes I've tried it and yes it works very well.
Nice :)
Do you know that you can unscrew that moving jaw?
No I did not know that. Thank you 👊
When we get an actual house (not townhome will rules against planting) I plan to get one of these and compost myself.
Oh for sure! Our trees need food too :)
Poor some bleach every month on the pipe
So bleach is not recommended to pour down your drain line because the drain line is connected to the primary drain pan upstairs in the air handler, and the fumes from the bleach can actually cause damage to the evaporator coil.
Be safe bro
Thanks brother 💪
Help. I push in the button and try to push away the wiper. But it won't move. How far is the button suppose to go? I finally got it. You just push but also pull down or something.
I am glad you figured it out 👍 good job!
Wednesday 2nd of October I just bought these for winter in SoCal they don't look as well made but are super easy to install. I'm going to see how they work this winter season in SoCal.
Sweet well let us know 👍
Thankyouuuu. It was my dimmer switch and it took your video to help me figure it out 😭
You’re welcome! It is such a small thing but so darn annoying if you don’t know:)
Very informative. You actually had my problem described exactly. Looks like it the fan or capacitor. I’m thinking capacitor. HVAC man is coming, nice too know what it might be. Thanks
@@tonyodom569 great! Thanks for the comment👍 glad it was helpful:)
Thank you!

Helpful video. What mattress are you using here?
Avocado crib mattress 👍
0:14 nice 10 to midnight intro
Thanks!
Good video. My suggestion is...need to be more neat in your cuts and taping technique. Just a suggestion
Yeah thanks for the feedback. This is more of a run and gun channel so you probably are not gonna find that smooth and professional look. Just don’t have the time or man power. But the heart to help will definitely be there👍 thanks again!
I just installed Emithsun blades on my 2017 Toyota Rav4 with the help of your video. Thank you!
Awesome 👍 super glad it was helpful!
So helpful thank you👍🏽
Great! So glad it helped 👍
I do have a question for you if you happen to see this message. We're having the exact same issue. That's how I came across this. The only difference is our drain is moving fine. There's no bubbling. The clean-out line water is going through it. It's not backing up. Yet, the one toilet in our house, when you push the flush, it's not pulling everything down. Occasionally, it will, but most of the time, it doesn't. Basically, it makes the flush noise but doesn't suck everything down. It just brings the water level up a little bit. Now are you pushing your hose towards the house or towards the septic system in the drain line
I was pushing it toward the septic system in this video. Good luck! Let me know if you get it working:) We actually had our septic system pumped out for about $450 as well. I guess you are supposed to do that every few years. It’s been good since then
I can't help but 😅 "and it's probably not proper to have the duct tape over the clean out drain cap" but in your defense been there done that 😅😅
Ha!
We just had this happen and what I don't understand is that the drain pan was entirely dry. How did the line from the drain pan get clogged if the pan was dry?
Maybe you caught it before it started overflowing into the secondary pan. Did you get a lot of sludge out when you sucked it out?
@@mechanicsfornonmechanics8998 Our system was shutting down during the afternoon, but would come back online late evening. The pan was dry so I didn't even think it was a drain problem. The tech visited (I couldn't be home then), diagnosed a drain problem, and cleaned the drain until it worked. But I guess I don't understand -- I though the drain was from the pan and if the pan was dry then how could it be a drain problem? I think maybe I misunderstood the way the system works and instead the drain system looks like this. Primary drain line which goes directly from the unit to our upstairs back. In that line there's a float to indicated a clogged line so (as in my case) that inline float turned the unit off (so that's why there was no water in the pan). The pan is the second failsafe. If the inline float doesn't work, water goes into the pan and out to a pipe ending outside our home. There's a float in the pan which acts as a failsafe on that system so that if water fills the pan, then that will also turn the system off. Am I close? [It'd be great if you did a video showing all the parts of the a/c drain system and walked through how each part worked and how they work together.]
I flipped off my breakers and my air conditioner and nothing happened. Are you sure I wasn't supposed to use my index finger or maybe throw the peace sign? (Lol.. Jk - people are dumb enough these days where it's hard to discern from sarcasm - I felt I needed to include the fact I was joking lol) Seriously though, my window AC is garbage. It's basically just like a $900 fan now. I'm in Arkansas and it's the middle of August so it's 100+ degrees everyday. But I work in a sawmill that's in an uninsulated metal building and we all work on the second floor where all the heat is trapped (ground level is mainly hydraulic tanks and wood chips on conveyor lines) and if I'm not mistaken, my supervisor told me they took the temperature in there last summer and it was supposedly like 150 or 160 degrees in there - like it's always 30+ degrees hotter inside than outside - when we walk outside for break, even the 110+ degrees feels like Antarctica just having a little breeze/fresh air... Seems like you'd die at that temperature but even living in Arkansas and growing up playing football and working in the log woods (I supposedly had a heat stroke in the log woods a few years ago), farms, plants, factories, mills, etc. and being very familiar with stifling, oppressive heat and humidity, the heat in this sawmill in an uninsulated metal building with machines everywhere putting off heat and even vapor/steam from the wood and almost no airflow is something I had never felt. It's a wholly different experience/feeling and there is a new sensation that you don't get from just regular heat - it's like the air in there is some kind of solid material and there's kind of a crushing and suffocating feeling... Almost everyone in the mill gets to work in cabs with ice cold ACs but I'm one of the about 3-4 people who not only have to stand all day but do it with no cab lol.. One of the other guys without a cab got so hot the other day, his eyes glazed over and he was all confused and they had to send him home - something they don't allow very often. But anytime any of my cab dwelling co-workers try to tease me or give me crap about anything, it's a pretty touchy subject - I'm like, "Get your lazy ass out of your comfy chair and out from the AC and get out here and help if you have a problem" lol... But all of that to say, after being in the sawmill all week, just being at home where it's probably 95+ degrees in my house and having an AC to just stir up the air feels pleasant. Though I do fantasize all week about being able to sit under the AC on the weekend at home and it's a pretty big bummer lol... But air conditioning is one of those luxuries that I might be better off learning to live without - like if there's ever a situation where it's just not available for whatever reason I'd already be acclimated.
Crazy environment you find yourself in there. Thanks for sharing 👍 Yeah it’s all relative. 95 degrees sounds pretty brutal, unless you come out of an environment of 150! Hopefully you get to enjoy those air conditioned cabs soon enough🥶
I am curious if having just a hvac career certificate from a local college will be enough to have a long and lucrative career? Potentially even starting my own business one day. I am 28 and deciding to go back to school for HVAC. The school I am applying to only offers a 12 month certificate program. I will be applying for an apprenticeship while completing the program. As I develop my skills I am open to relocating to other states for better pay. More so interested in commercial than residential. I know this career will be tough and come with many pros and cons however I am excited to transition into a reliable career that will allow me to become financially stable. Any advice is appreciated.
Yeah I started my HVAC career at the age of 30, after meeting my wife, and wanting to be more financially stable. Just take it one step at a time. Especially in SW Florida, there is always a demand for HVAC technicians. Starting out, you will probably have to do some grundoon work. They might throw you up in the attic, doing lots of duct jobs, but just stay in it, have a good attitude, learn all you can, and it won’t be too long before you are moving up to a technician. You just want to try and find a good company that you can grow in. I think your mind set from the beginning should be, how can I learn all that a contractor knows? Just keep learning, learning, learning, because that knowledge will pay dividends 💰💰 good luck and God bless!
@@mechanicsfornonmechanics8998 THANK YOU!!!!
@@mechanicsfornonmechanics8998 Thank you for the advice man!
Appreciate the info but Why is no one tending to that poor screaming baby

New air conditioners don't use freon. Am I right?
Yeah the word “Freon” can be (generally speaking) understood as the refrigerant in your AC system, but more technically, I believe Freon refers to R-22 (which is still in many people’s systems), or its predecessor R-12. The newer refrigerant R-410a is not technically, I am pretty sure, referred to as Freon.
@@mechanicsfornonmechanics8998 Freon is banned. It's going out of style and becoming rare and more expensive. That is why I had to upgrade my system to a new one. Freon has been banned in the U.S. since January 2020, prompting major changes in the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) industry. You can still use an older air conditioning system that uses Freon, but maintaining and repairing one is growing increasingly expensive.
@@crand20033 That is true. The A/C industry is very expensive to the consumer.
@@mechanicsfornonmechanics8998 Well they have to come out so they want to make it worth their while but when it's just a small job (cleaning, or turning a screw) they fabricate a problem (or replace something that doesn't need to be replaced) so they can charge you more than they could have. Its an industry rife with scams so I want to learn how to do it myself.
I'm surprised there wasn't access doors from the beginning
Those are not as popular here in sw Florida. Wish they were 👍
🔥 🙏🏻 amen bro!
Thanks bro!
