Fixer Upper Update Ep.1
This is the first video in what will be a series on the new house. The initial project was to remove all the carpet, carpet pads and tack strips from the house. The carpet is over 40 years old and the amount of dust and pollen trapped in it was an issue. The next major focus was yard clean up and cleaning out the gutters. Since the weather was still nice and the heat from summer and the mosquitos that came with it hadn’t arrived, it was still bearable to spend all day working outside. Most of the work was focused on removing bushes from around the perimeter of the house in order to prepare for foundation work to be done. Hopefully in the next video on the house the foundation will be done...

    Hi, if you have time make some corrections to your video. First, cover that different brands of riding mowers have different star patterns on their mower blades. Next you should of had a washer to go with every mounting pin used to mount the deck, The rear deck arms should be facing forward to aid with reinstallation of the deck. Also having some 2x4 pieces of wood on the ground under the deck prior to lowering, will aid both removal and reinstallation of the deck. Lastly, on some decks your viewers may have to loosen the pulleys on top of the deck to aid with installation of their new deck belt. You should add something about how to correctly remove and install the Power Take Off or (PTO) cable after they have lowered and released their deck. Best regards.

    How long does the battery last on the mini

    • @thediygrunt
      @thediygrunt 13 дней назад

      It would depend on the battery used. Ryobi currently sells six different 18 volt batteries, ranging from 1.5 amp up to 12 amp. Just like any battery, over time they will degrade and hold less charge so the age of the battery will also make a big difference.

    How do you finish the binding if it’s only going on one side of the carpet which is already bound on the other 3 sides?

    • @thediygrunt
      @thediygrunt 13 дней назад

      I'm not sure I understand the question. The carpet should be bound all the way around. Pick a starting point, preferably one a long side and when you come back around to it you overlap the material by about 2 inches by opening the binding and cutting out the white center of it so it butts right against where you started. If you have binding three sides already and need to add binding to only one side you can either remove all the binding and start fresh or fill in the area with the new binding. In that case simply have each end of the new binding overlap just like you do to end when binding all four sides at once.

    A massive help to me! Great video. I am replacing the kit which is not too difficult using your video. Meanwhile, the flap looks fine except that part of the disk that it sits on just broke apart. Is that easy to replace? I could send a photo but I don't think I can do that on here. Any suggesstions?

    • @thediygrunt
      @thediygrunt 13 дней назад

      Every part of the toilet and tank can be found and purchased individually in the plumbing section of Home Depot or Lowes. So you don't have to replace everything in the tank if you have one broken part but the rest is all good.

    Why would you use a 2x4 most people just put the angle iron right to the ceiling It has multiple holes

    • @thediygrunt
      @thediygrunt 13 дней назад

      The angle irons had initially be installed into the center support beam that runs through the room. But when I removed them and went to transfer them to the ceiling there were no studs directly in line with the the garage door rails. Yes I could have still made it work and the angle irons would have borne the weight. I preferred the idea of using a piece of wood to hit multiple joists in order to spread the load of the door and allow the angle irons to stay in line with the garage door rails.

    @michbender2251 18 дней назад

    Probably a dumb question but I get confused, cause I'm not a car guy. When they say requlator, you get a new motor, well technically it's just your paying for the motor? Also, has your sister get issues with the windows often? Cause it's about ever year now where one of them goes bad, been like $500 repair every time.

    • @thediygrunt
      @thediygrunt 13 дней назад

      The regulator is referring to the entire assembly, on the regulator is a small electric motor that lowers and raises the window. The motor if I remember correctly was fine, but parts of the regulator broke and since you can't buy them separately you are forced to replace the entire regulator as one unit. I she has already had to replace the driver side window regulator. Apparently this part suffers from a design flaw that makes it prone to failure. I don't believe she has had issues with the back seat doors yet and I'm not sure if they use the same design and part since its not my car.

  • @deedemarest443
    @deedemarest443 22 дня назад

    The only thing I would recommend is buying a quality thick gage stainless sink and a stainless steal interior/bladed disposal because most times it's your garbage disposal material becomes corroded that causes it to be replaced. Also raise your diswasher hose up above the connection to the garbage disposal so you dom't get back flow of garbage in your dishwasher, "An aounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure".

      It should be the same process for all the models, but just to be sure, I recommend checking the instruction manual that comes with the model you choose.

  • @dalemihocik4732
    @dalemihocik4732 29 дней назад

    Some constructive criticism if I may offer. The rear clip isn't the smallest one such as you used. It should be the largest clip and it's installed thru the hole ahead of the keeper. The smaller clip goes at the spring end in this order, first a washer over the bolt than the spring arm followed by the small clip on top through the hole in the bolt. Aside from that your content was great and so was the voice clarity and video. Keep them coming.
