It's hard to get the younger ones to get involved, I blame the schools In the US at least, they stopped shop classes and that's ruined the trade industry interests in my opinion. Great videos as usual

Excellent video Paul, well done to your Granddaughter.

Wow 194K views and this is before it goes viral after your interview with your Granddaughter today. All the best!!

Hi Paul, That was a lovely interview, well done to you both!! I’m sure you could have continued to tell us anecdotes about your engineering career which would make interesting videos. I thought your highest video was going to be doing the roofing repairs, not sure if I’ve seen the lock oiling one, I’ll go and search it out!! I think you’re right about it being two different hobbies. When I get some more time I would like to do some of my own but I’m conscious of the time required for the video side. For the time being I like to post photos and videos of my walks (on the instathingy), it’s not tourist stuff at all. I´m often chasing old industrial buildings, mills, railway lines and irrigation channels but it’s taken me to some spectacular scenery. Have a great weekend!!

Good one, Paul. I think I would have given about the same answers.

Nice one Paul Great she takes interest and did a great job in front of the camera👍👍 I'm in a similar position with grand daughters, one only the other day was in the garage with me repairing a car problem, the job i was doing, she said "That looks very satisfying"😄😄 made me laugh because i didn't really want to be doing it!!! Oh and there's a thing i used to do karate together with my daughter. No more though, the old knees and back can't manage it. great job there Paul👍👍 regards Kev

That was great! Well done to your Grandaugter.

Enjoy all your videos Paul, your stiff patio door lock video did rather well. If you ever decided to do a follow up on that video, you may want to consider one where you replace the Euro cylinder barrel (eg, when someone loses one of the keys, or the lock is damaged on the outside, but can still be opened from the inside). The cylinders come in different lengths, but are really easy to measure, and you already know how to remove / replace them :)

Love the video. I wish any one of my seven granddaughters was interested in spending time in my shop.

Very much enjoyed this, what a great idea!

Very well done Haxby Shed Jr. Jr. ;) You can look forward to a profession of News Anchor or Police Interrogator! Great video Paul!

encourage the curiosity - the ability to research and problem solve is invaluable

Well done Paul, I enjoy your channel and projects. thanks for sharing

Your granddaughter is wonderful. I love that you did this. I had to go and watch your first video. ;) "The strong straw" - interesting perspective.

What a great video. I would encourage both Grand Daughters to be apart of the Haxby Shed review on how they gauge the state of the work program. This could be incorporated every few months. This exposure will assist them in expressing their views why they see the shed activity interesting. Allowing this type of engagement for our children broadens their understanding of the effort to create, or restore items of interest.

What a wonderful video with your granddaughter!!! I love it! I do I love spending time with my grandsons in my hobby shop. I made lathes for them out of cardboard and they use them quite a bit. It’s wonderful to see your granddaughter take such an interest in what you’re doing - I know she seems a bit distracted, but she’s taking it all in. What a wonderful gift you’re giving her! Thanks so much for such a great video, Paul!!

How good was that. Really nice video , here’s hoping the young lady continues to take an interest in the Haxby Shed. It would be nice to see the two of you working on a project together. 👍

in the hot seat!!

It must be Friday morning, it's my ritual to watch a freshly uploaded HaxbyShed video while sitting in the garden waiting to feed the badgers.

Fun idea for a video!

Nice family.

Father and son! 🥴 Oh my, what a day. Taking such a beast of an engine out is not for the faint hearted. Well done to all involved. 👏👏👍😀 Best wishes to your wife for continued recovery from her operation. 😘

Hi Paul, Thank you for your information on mechanical hacksaw pulley ratios and motor info. My arithmetical doodles had produced somewhat similar figures, so good to have them confirmed. Regards, John (N.Yorks)

great review. I really need to know, though, does the jaw/workpiece lift when tightened? They claim that this vice has a lockdown system and is a sellig point. would have been great if that was explored. Cheers.

Morning Haxby Shed, Saw your video on your refurb of the Rapidor hacksaw and noted the countershaft mounted underneath. Could you give me a rough indication of the size of the motor and countershaft pulleys please? My own conversion to single phase has hit a bump in the road after finding that my motor has a gearbox inside it, so need to move to plan B. Thanks and Regards, John ( your videos all much appreciated)

Fun to see something different. All the best, hoping for a speedy recovery for the patient! 👍👍

Not so much removing the engine from the car as removing the car from the engine! Be sure to post an update with Team W8's progress 👍

Hey Paul Looking forward to the installation of the replacement motor, engine. Kimber

Ferdinand PUKE was a SADIST! This job isn't impossible, just a royal PITA! Typical over engineered german POS! I can now happily say, there is no more german cars in my life. I dumped my S-class and life is good. Glad to hear your wife is on the mend.

Hi Paul. Sending best wishes to your wife for a speedy recovery from her surgery. I hope all is going well. As always thank you for sharing your milling machine maintenance. Always interesting and informative to watch, and listen to. The walk to Ravenscar from Robin Hoods Bay and back with a detour to Bogle Hole is a perennial favourite of my wife and I. It holds a special meaning to us both. ❤ See you on the next one. 👏👏👍😀

It’s maybe a three minute cycle to fit the engine and gearbox in the factory, quite possibly from below with the subframe. 40 odd years ago it took me two days working by myself aged about 18 to remove a mini engine & gearbox and probably three times longer to get the engine and a rebuilt gearbox back in (it had locked up in gear). Now just reading a Haynes manual gives me backache.

Nearly as difficult as moving the Harrison Mill

I hope your wife is doing well Paul. It was a good video. The engine is tight in there and no mistake. I take it that it was just easier to remove the engine and gearbox complete? I'm assuming the gearbox to bell housing fasteners were almost impossible to get to?

Oh brother !! What a day. Memory says, I have changed approx. 8 engines in the (way) distant past !! Good show !!

its a beast paul, what years the car atb kev

Regular viewer. 63yo, so I've been around the block a few times. I love your channel, and love that you're helping the kids with the VW.... but IMHO they could use a little more room... to succeed or fail. Your were sounding a little overbearing, IMHO.

Interesting, Thx for the vid. That engine was definitely shoehorned in there.

Nice to see some handy lads prepared to tackle something like this these days. None of my 3 lads would even consider doing this, nor would I now.

Never having done an engine swap on anything but NA muscle cars and pickup trucks, I have to ask... Why pull the tranny?

Your son never got annoyed with you once? Paul, you weren't trying hard enough! ;)

Hope your wife's recovery is smooth and uneventful.

How I no why I drive a 1964 Holden. I have always wondered why you can't replace a stretch bolt with a quality bolt and toque it to specification ? Kit from down under

Perfect nurse or perfect ass… either way, I’m so happy your wife is doing well! LOL. I’m only 2:09 in and as always rather intrigued. Here we go!!!

Talk about 10 pounds of sh-t in a 5 pound bag! Good job supervising, cheers.

What year is your sons Passat

I really liked my Passats, the last one was at 205,000 miles when someone bumped it. It was a 2.0TD, not a W8 though! Interesting video Paul.

Remind me to never buy a Volkswagon ! I have never seen such a complicated looking engine !!! I should send you a picture of something super simple.

good video paul

Nicely done!

It sounds great "free" but even dropping 6kWh out of the battery (max the inverter) and putting that back in "free". Obviously you could decided to run lots of other things too to get more use but just sticking with battery push. So 6 x 15p to grid export = £0.90. Then fill back up at £0 ..... but Solar is still active so that goes to battery first.... ?! not really worth the hassle is it.
