Hey there Steve. Yes that video will be coming soon, currently just finishing a few things on the Columbus radio and will carry on with the wee Bell Colt so stay tuned 👍🙂. Thanks for watching

@MannixGarage Thanks for the update , really enjoy your valve radio series 👍🏻.

Thanks for watching, appreciate the comment 🙂👍

Hey thanks for watching glad you found the video useful. With the flashings and ridge cap, yeah still replace those nails if you find you have surface rust around them and carry out the same process found in the video. However if you find that there are large holes around the nail hole as a result of corrosion and where the new roof screw wont create a seal, for me I just had a handful of those so I just made my own flat square washers out of old roofing material I had and sealed with silicon with the screw driven through the middle (did the job fine). But if you have quite a few like that, probably best not use my method but to buy aluminium backed epdm roof washers or the screw and washer combo. You can get different outside dia. (OD) sizes maybe just go for a OD size that is bigger or similar to the lead head nail OD to be safe. Hope that helps 🙂

Thanks for watching and glad to hear video was helpful. Appreciate the comment 🙂

Hey thanks for that. Yeah I love old school retro. You don't see many around these days but you get the odd person who will make a comment recognizing the older bikes when out riding. Yes your vintage road bike is in very good condition and looking good after the work that's been done to bring it back to life. 👍👍🙂

Thanks so much for the comment, thanks for watching 🙂🙂

Thanks for that, yes its not a bad cassette tape deck from the early 80s 👍 Thanks for watching 🙂

Hi there, sorry to hear about that about your timber framing especially going to the trouble with transporting it to a new site and then finding the rot. Have you had a chance to inspect all the framing now what is it like? I would find it hard believe for a 20 year old garage that all the timber will be full of rot, unless the garage was already disassembled stored outside and the wood left exposed to the weather or sitting on the ground for a considerable amount of time. For me I would just inspect what you have, and replace the wood framing that is rotten similar to what I had done in the video. If its just all the bottom timber plates that have rot I would replace them and should be easier to do if the garage is still apart you will just need an extra pair of hands to help move the disassembled garage sections, remove nails to bottom plate from cladding side, lie sections with the cladding side on ground (grass or soft ground) and remove rotten timber bottom plate and replace with new timber. However if it was every bit of timber it may not be worth while. Hope that helps, interested to hear your findings, Thanks 👍

@@MannixGarage - Thank you. As soon it stops raining I"ll start having a better look at what I've now got. Heavy black plastic sheeting was put on the ground, and then more sheeting was placed over it on top. But the guys who removed the garage to my property didn't do the best sheet covering job to make sure that water wouldn't get in under the sheeting. They did accidentally cut in to some of the sheeting and it's been a nightmare trying to cover up every little slash. Anyway - thanks for now

@protospha cool, yes let me know what you find. Thanks 👍

Hi there, no worries thanks for watching. Yes a few things you can do, firstly I always wash in cold water but you can do the odd hot wash, high water level once a month or so, that will help reduce the soap scum buildup as it may not dissolve as well in a cold wash. Use the correct amount of washing liquid or powder, don't over do it. Don't use fabric softeners they can cause a residue build up in the washing machine, or if you need to use it dilute it (best not to use it). Leave the lid open to let the air in to dry bowl after a wash. Cheers 🙂

Thanks for the interesting info there. Not what my service manual states (thank goodness I thought I was crazy!) 🙄 However I will endeavor to look out for the model of cassette tape deck you use as it sounds easier to maintain which I guess saves time and money and lets just say in todays economy with high inflation that is important. Take care and thanks for watching 👍🙂

Thanks for watching and appreciate the comment 🙂👍. As far as the other bits for demagnetizing, if you have a wand do them anyway it won't hurt them and will only be a small amount of time to carry out.

Thanks for that feedback hopefully that will help some people out. Thanks for watching 🙂

Thanks for watching, yes it must be a common place for the hose to split which is a pain. Mines still going strong since the repair and someone else made a comment when storing the spot cleaner away not to tightly wrap the hose around the cleaner which may prolong the life of the hose. Take care 🙂

@MannixGarage interestingly the replacement hose from Bissell is a much more flexible plastic one with a bit more length. Must be revised part after so many issues. Thanks again

Thanks for watching and the comment much appreciated. Glad you found the video helpful 👍🙂

The Briggs & Stratton 450 series 148cc lawn mower engine takes around 10-20oz or 540-590ml, but as you fill just check the level as you go with the dip stick. The dip stick check procedure on this engine; unscrew, wipe dip stick, screw down dipstick and unscrew to check oil level and repeat if needed. Thanks for watching 🙂

Hi there, yes, you can. When you remove the old roofing nail and if you haven’t widened\damaged the hole that the nail was removed from and ensuring that the new roofing screw washer still covers and provides a seal around the hole you will be fine. Perhaps have some profile washers on hand in case needed. Thanks for watching 👀 🙂

Hey Bro, are you the person with the bronze 4 door Mirage with the SOHC 4g63T? as I might have some questions for you down the track. When I got this question I felt guilty as I have done nothing on the car lol really need to get it done, but I have found my spreadsheet with the part numbers. No not using the standard mirage bottom ball joint, and I am unsure what car specifically they are from as its so long ago, my guess Sigma GSR or Cordia GSR, I used Part#JBJ374 Lucas Hyundai Excel 89- . Repco lists that part# if you find out what car that is off let me know as ill update my spreadsheet of parts. From memory if you are still using the Mirage standard shock setup you will need to run camber bolts.

@@MannixGarage yeah bro , that's me! Cheers for that, I used that part number to find the OEM / Interchange Numbers: 5453024000, 5453024A00, 5453028000, 5453028A00, specs are the same as the TRW part from repco, but you can get them much cheaper through rockauto. Model I found them in is Hyundai Excel 1990-92. Ordered a pair, $90NZD landed from rockauto. I have Evo 3 adjustable shocks and ToyShop camber plates in mine, also have camber bolts on hand if I do need to correct further.

@ALMN8U Cool its the little Mirage with the green doors aye its a nice looking car, I follow you on Instagram. Thanks for that website, never knew about that one. If you are ever in the Wellington area and want to have a look at the Mirage sing out. I have recently bought a EX Lancer which I am keeping stock and just want to get it to WOF standard. I will get that out the way first and carry on with the Mirage me thinks 🙂, but once that is done I will flick you a message on your Mirage as I will no doubt have some questions. Just sing out if you have any other questions.

Thanks for watching, yes the chuck isn't the best, the rest of the drill seems fine its just the chuck that lets it down. Thanks for the comment 🙂👍

@@MannixGarage you think we wan replace the mannual chuck on it ? If yes can you make a video of replacement of the chuck. I can't wrap my head around on how to unscrew the chuck.

Yeah either that or you can make head demagnetizers too. Thanks for watching 😀

I'm going to draw contradictory remarks, but simply inserting a blank tape and running it in record mode will demag the head. This instruction was included in older tape deck manuals.

Hey I guess you can remove filter and vacuum the HRV filter, but if you are going to the trouble of removing it I would just replace it. Thanks for watching 👍🙂

@@MannixGarage thanks I ordered one 🙏

Hi there, this approach wont be like a high pressure flush machine which could be a good or bad thing depending how old the transmission is, but if you follow the steps in the video, flush and fill, flush fill you can add the step of driving then another flush and fill step that will get almost most of the old fluid out. For this car I also change at a shorter interval than what is recommended. Hope that helps, appreciate the comment take care 👍🙂

Thanks for watching and the comment much appreciated 🙂. Yes not the best of chucks a let down to a good drill otherwise.

Hey no worries, glad you found the video useful. Good way to give your roof that little bit of extra life, thanks for watching and thanks for the comment 👍🙂

Thanks yeah good old bike that one. Yes possibly right, however its a scale used in the cycle 🚴 industry for weight weenies (not me btw) so can be used to measure weights of very light bolts etc handy when building a lightweight road or XC bike. Thanks for watching, take care 🙂

Hey no worries at all bro. Enjoy the game and hopefully a good result to give you that motivation to clean your washing machine tomorrow! When I worked in IT I used to look after the computers for the Hurricanes. Take care and appreciate the comment 🏉🙂

Thanks for the comment, no worries at all and congrats on the wee baby 👶🙂

Thanks for the comment, good advice and will try that next time when demagnetizing the tape deck 🙂 thanks for watching take care.

Thanks for the comment yes they do flicker and it is noticeable not a good look but I have managed to find some 6 volt filament bulbs which I'll fit. Love the older radios and I see you have some on your channel which I have subscribed 🙂

Its cigarette tar, you can see the yellowing on the side of the cassette door area as well. Thanks for watching and take care 🙂👍

No problems at all glad to hear you have replaced your filter yourself, and good money saved 💲🙂

Thanks so much for this lovely comment I really do appreciate that. Happy to hear that you have cleaned your machine. Another tip is leave the lid open after a wash that helps to keep the bowl dry and hopefully wont get moldy. Thanks for watching and take care 🙂👍

Appreciate you taking the time - I already do that and think it has made a huge difference. I have also started using a product called DampFree which has a hanger product to capture water in the air and I hang that alongside the machine to ensure the space is healthier.@@MannixGarage

So help, Thank you so much.😊

No worries happy to help. It is surprising how dirty washing machines can get so always good to know how to clean this model out. Thanks for the comment much appreciated 🙂🙂👍

Thanks for the comment, yes its a nice old bike. I will do a garage tour video this year and do a brief talk on things of interest. Its an 1942 Indian 741B. Hope you regenerated your silica gel 🙂 Thanks for watching.

But thank you for the video! Followed everything easily

Hi there hope you managed to put everything back together? Even though you pulled the handle you can still put everything back together again. Hope you managed to do that, maybe update on how you go. Thanks for watching and appreciate the comment.

Thanks so much, hope you and the family are well 🙂👍

Hi there, there have been some other viewers with the same issue, if you look through the comments it seems to be that using vinegar will help free up the inner bowl. Give that a try and I hope that helps. Let us know how you get on if you like. Thanks 🙂

@@MannixGarage Hey! After 3 hours I managed to get it out. I had to use super hot water (not boiling) with vinegar mixed into it. And I had to step on the middle part while pulling the bowl super hard to get it out. Once I got it out enough where I couldn’t stand on the middle anymore I managed to wiggle it out. Gave it a really good clean before putting it back. When I put it back in I tried to pull it out again to see if it would still be stuck but I had no issues 😊

@@MannixGarage also mine was literally 10times dirtier than this, thick sludge over every surface. The machine was second hand and had obviously never been cleaned lol so I’m happy I managed to get it super clean again 😊

@@nadiastone6422 That's so good to hear you got it out and cleaned. Yes nothing wrong with second hand stuff and they are good machines and at least you know how to clean it out so its as good as new well done. Thanks for replying too as it may help someone else with the same issue. Good result! Thanks for watching and appreciate the comments 🙂

Thanks for subscribing, yeah try it out I still use that mixture sugar and borax and works well.

Kia ora, thanks for the comment appreciate that thank you. Yup all the bits I got from Trademe as I found it cheaper doing it that way 🙂👍

Thanks for watching and appreciate the comment. Hmmm I haven't heard of that one with the slave unit not functioning after a reset. I wonder can you confirm the slave unit isn't going by listening to it in the ceiling as I wonder if its possible the replacement filter has stopped or majorly reduced the flow in that box perhaps?

No worries happy to hear the video has helped. Thanks for watching and appreciate the comment 🙂

Hi there, thanks for watching. I would say if the bike frameset is for sale, just buy it now before someone else does, then you can collect bits together to get it ridable. Did you want the width measurement of the bottom bracket? I don't know of hand, but will measure this weekend. Cheers

Thanks for the comment, very much appreciated and happy to hear from a viewer in New Caledonia 🙂

Thanks for the comment, glad you found the video useful appreciate the feedback 🙂

Hi Steve, yes I think if it had a decent chuck it would be a great drill for $49 dollars it isn't bad but wouldn't be happy with full retail that's for sure!

Glad to hear you have saved some money doing it your self. That's what its all about and good job done. Thanks for watching 🙂👍
