hi i looked at all 4 videos it look great and well done hope it last for long time
brief overview!
Yes
I like the fact that you showed us that we don't have to take the top off to do the job. Great work. 😂well done
Thanks. I think it's easier to leave the top on, but would recommend removing the faucet and drain. Cheers
Thank you
You're welcome. Glad you found it helpful.
Actually a great idea
thank you. cheers.
How did you connect the pulley to the ball to get the ball to move? @chrismakesstuff
The string has a slip knot around the pulley, then the string is wrapped around the pulley
When you said bad idea, I thought you were gonna thriu a beer can at an officer and get into a pursuit on the highway LoL I was a little disappointed but still great video 👍
Uh, yup. Your first thought I would not recommend. But glad you liked the video. Cheers
I like your style Chris. Could this be done easily with the Home Depot panel fence (MicroPro Sienna Pressure Treated Wood Lattice Top Fence Panel)?? I told my sonto just build or buy the simple 6 feet high picket fence but he was set on the fence panel with 12" lattice tops, hmm.
Thanks, I appreciate it. I believe it could be done, but assuming the lattice panels at the top would have to be boxed in. Let me know if you try it and it works out.
just saying, on the vevor website the motor kit is way cheaper and more updated, you can also ask questions easier there.
Lol the taking the ceiling light down, still hot, has me laughing so hard
Can't let a hot light hold up progress, lol
talk about making it look easy!
Lol. Building it solo adds a degree of difficulty, but it can be done
They are the perfect lawn tractor to convert to electric. I took the motor out and sold it for parts and replaced it with a 48 volt motor, a motor controller and a 5.2 kWh lithium golf cart battery. The Kohler Courage 20 hp motor is garbage. They all fail. Fortunately since to motor does not last long the lawn tractor is usually in exceptionally good shape. The ME1004 electric motor has a long vertical shaft and is a direct replacement for the gas motor. You just bolt it to a plate and bolt the plate in place of the gas motor. If you use a motor controller, you can use a golf cart peddle throttle with the spring removed to connect to the existing gas throttle cable for motor speed control. You can add a 48 to 12 volt transformer to run the lights, the 48 volt contactor on the existing key switch, and the electric 12 volt PTO for the blades. The large battery lets you cut grass for an hour to 1.5 hrs depending on how thick it is. Just driving around it will run for 6 hrs or so. The motor is very strong and will pull a heavily loaded trailer.

Great Video, thanks for sharing your experience and craftmanship with us. You have given me the courage to try this myself on a double vanity, the existing finish is all scratched up and worn through the clear coat, so anything I do should be an improvement.
Thanks. Glad to help
I moved into a new house with this smartlock. How do I change the key?
Reset red button by the battery, then proceed with video instructions. Cheers
If you would have made it just a little longer you could have built a small manual dump bed from a wheelbarrow on the back!
Not a bad idea.
Wow this thing is incredible.
Thanks. I appreciate it.
Hi! I really enjoyed watching this video series on building a 6x4! I've gotten a lot of good ideas from it! I'm thinking maybe the problem with getting "hung up" on uneven ground where one tire on each side spins in the air because of the rigid frame could be alleviated by running a chain on each side between the front and rear axles. You'd still have the differential action without having to weld up the diffs with that setup. The problem might be that the wheels might have to be spaced out further to make room for the chains, which may not be desirable. Cheers!
Thank you. Chaining the axles together might be a good solution. If you build it, let me know how it turns out. Cheers
Man you should have wire wheeled some of that crud off
I did. Just not in the video
I have an original Penny Farthing bicycle on display in my living room.
I have a electric Penn-E-Farthing on display in my living room. 😂
How much to build me one and send it to me
Lol. Thanks for the interest.
Hey Chris I lost my book with this I have the exact same defiant lock how will I find out the stock code for the lock so I can reprogram
Easiest way, use reset button, red button by the battery, and program a new code number using the procedure in the video
@@chrismakesstuff1I got it you're the man. Excellent video
Glad to help. Cheers
That's an awful lot of work when all you got to do is blow air past the brake bleeder
I believe you're describing a venturi effect. I've never seen it done on brakes, but I'm intrigued to test it's efficiency. I can imagine the immediate downside is brake fluid sprayed all over the wheel well.
How did you sting it up at the top? You mentioned the smooth bolts at the top and bottom but I can't picture how it's hanging.
It just goes over the top of the bolt, kind of like a pulley.
My E-mail isn't set up to work and I'm not sure I'm allowed to post my indifferent e-mail addy or nothing I type will be posted - I don't think I'm allowed to even post my phone number legally and I don't want to yak You Tube off. Yes, I could make my g-mail work but I don't have time enough going through what I have now much less going through another e-mail service and getting things so piled up that I would be putting in more time that I don't have and falling asleep at the keyboard. I fall to sleep as it is just watching video some times. Gosh I hate that.
The struggle is real
Within my area there are operations that will help you paten, develop, and market for you right on television! They will help with producing products via manufactures in specific number according to how popular they think your idea actually is and will sell. Having a video and product on top of having a working model should really help big time.
My advice, stay very far away from companies like that.
Use a 2 oz Syringe (cheap and easy to source) THE.. BEST... EASIEST brake bleed tool ever concieved.
Good tip.
That is one of the best tools for the loner I've seen yet! With one more part you could innovate that thing into one of the nest selling products in the open market! We - or - YOU could make a small fortune! Talk to me and find out how. . . post a return and we can talk about it.
Thank you. I appreciate it. I've designed 100s of different products, and unfortunately coming up with the idea and building it is the easy part. Marketing it is the difficult part. I appreciate the kudos, and there will probably be a follow-up video of improvements I've made after making this video.
@@chrismakesstuff1 Ok - First, making a lever the size of your drive cylinder for the length, shaped like the letter "v" and anchoring it at the intersecting angles with a pivoting bolt, on the mounting rail would pivot the power through at an angle lower from the horizontal parallel to angle force at the same angle as the ram in the direction as your foot on the peddle - you would still have to provide an anchor that would hold the whole thing completely flat on the floor - perhaps an adjustable vertical wedge from the framework to the steering column - huh? did I say all that correctly?
How many springs were on the deck?
I don't recall off hand
So cool!!
Thanks
The project was very interesting to watch and I enjoyed the humor as well!
Glad you enjoyed it. Cheers.
👍
Cheers
Got an old dresser that I'm converting. I'm an experienced resin artist (tumblers, small pieces) so I'm a bit intimidated. This reassured me that the pour and process I'm envisioning is on track. Thank you!
Sounds like a fun project. I have a few other Epoxy projects that might be of interest, like the flower pots or cedar slice painting.
What wheel / tires are those? Looks good!
Stock wheels from a newer generation Silverado, 265-?-18. Thanks. I also like the newer wheels on the older generation trucks.
Based on the amount of possible "dead" transmissions discussed in these comments, I'm hoping that someone might want to sell me a Primary Variable Speed Drive Pulley for my Craftsman 19.5 HP 42” LT2500 Lawn Tractor. (Sears Craftsman Model Number 944.602630). As discussed here in 2009 (for this one year only) Craftsman decided to use the problematic (plastic) General Transmission (GT/Gentrans) RS800 Transaxle. The tag attached on the transmission reads General Transmission 415663 (87007 C4) and 415663C0100033. It is a Continuously Variable Transmission (CVT)) and not a hydrostatic drive.
Not sure if this is a question or wanted ad.
How can I attach a Polarity switch to this? For forward and reverse?
I have a Husqvarna ST 138 2015 model. when I push the forward pedal the mower goes in reverse, the reverse is okay, but the forward goes in reverse too..? Its got me beat.. Should I give this a try..?
If it has the same transaxle, give it a try.
Thank you for making this, hoping its a simple fix on mine as well
If caught early, cleaning out grass and debris from that top pulley area will extend the life of them. It's still a inherently poor design for a transaxle though.
Fuck this fucking lock, I can not change the code to save my fucking life, I’ve everyone at Defiant… no one has a fucking answer
instead of trying to change the code, try a hard reset with the red button inside the housing where the batteries go, then program a new code.
@@chrismakesstuff1 I did that sir, sorry I’m not mad anymore haha, but I tried resetting it but won’t work, I pressed and held it down for 10 + secs
Where did you buy those hinges from & what size are they?
I believe they were sourced from homedepot
Where did you get the hardware?
I believe the hardware was sourced from homedepot
Man i been wanting to do this for a few weeks while i repaired my overlength trailer and this is a great cheap idea!! Gooj job on you and your ingenuity.
Thank you. It works well, breaks down easy, and cheap to build. Glad to help. Cheers
Hey Chris can you share your contact number or email.
Perfect!! I did it!
Awesome. Glad to help.
Have you measured this things amp pull from the battery so we can see the wattage? You can just put a clamp meter on the pos or neg wire from the battery while full throttle it. Put the clamp on a "MAX" setting too you can drive around then see the max it pulled & at 10:15 I think your videos are good for what they show. All I request is the above, otherwise you show all the info that is really needed. at 14:20 that is a good test if you fully open throttle with a clamp meter too
I don't have a clamp meter, someday I will probably invest in one but for the time being, specs are just based on the component specs. Honestly, those can vary from batch to batch of components, and sometimes manufacturers can over or under state the actual specs.
@@chrismakesstuff1 Yea I know, the motor specs can just be randomly listed really. Not as bad as flashlights or batteries though lol. That's why I was interested. If you ever want one check out the kaiweets ht206D, it's well regarded and only like $30. plenty of reviews and youtubes too
Thanks for the heads up on the clamp meter. They have come down in price, but with so many tools on my wish list, the clamp meter just keeps getting shifted to the bottom of the list. Lol@@gg-gn3re
good job. nice quick and easy instructions. thank you.
Thanks. I appreciate it
We call it an hourglass
I've heard it referred to as lantern, hourglass works too
