Does the phrase, "girly hands" offend you? Don't worry, your emasculation was not entirely your fault. Blame consumer culture! Let's call them 'girly consumer-hands,' instead. Rather than leaving a dislike over the jab, take it as a badge of honor that physical work is so far beneath you! Think of yourself as a misunderstood artist, like a pasty-faced mute Johnny Depp. Chances are your wardrobe is already similar enough. Your work is technical. Esoteric. Important, I'm sure. Seriously though, this fumblefingers thing has become a bit of a problem. People _really are_ fixing things less. The end result is a 'just buy a new one' mentality of helpless people who have far fewer blue-collar problem solving skills. There's a price to pay in the long-term for too much *Buy N' Large* style wastefulness. Remember, what we call 'healthy economy' is just the engine revving: lots of incentivized spending is just the gears spinning really fast. We might also want to look at the tachometer. Don't buy one if you can fix it. EDIT: _The Design of Everyday Things_ by Don Norman, circa 1988 Related video: ruclips.net/video/yY96hTb8WgI/видео.html
So I have been watching your content for a long time. I really like your approach to problem solving. I have been tinkering and problem solving as young As I can remember. It must be some undiagnosed disorder. As far as "Don't buy one if you can fix it" a lot of times you can benefit from peoples lack of ambition to fix things. for the price of a O-ring you can have a working _____ fill the blank. I still am nervous about taking stuff apart sometimes but if its heading to the trash anyway there is so much to learn just disassembling things and seeing how they work. Thanks for sharing. I really don't like commenting on vids but I try sometimes knowing it helps those of you that I get enjoyment from watching and I always like the vid.
@@carbonstar9091 Why, though? Why would they be manufactured in that direction? Is it purely as a deliberate obsolescence? Or does the market demand tend to favor convenience over longevity? We're in a whirlpool, and with each pass we lose more of our autonomy. "Right to Repair" implies regulatory policy. Call me idealistic, but if consumers were to develop these 'basic skills' in the first place, they would know better than to buy disposable nozzles (or iPhones).
It did seem an odd jab from such an advocate for adding rubber to things, then I remembered how much you like trolling. Well, right after thinking, “but I don’t like that it gets so cold...” like a wuss. I love repairing things, though the self destructing electronics are an issue. My desire to fix everything pesetas her indoors to no end.
The term, planned obsolescence, became prevalent in the early 1950s. There were manufacturers of washing machines, also ranges, that were so reliable, that they only needed to be purchased once in a lifetime. They were easily repairable and seldom malfunctioned. Sadly, many of these companies went bankrupt, because once their customers purchased their product, they lost that customer. That's something of the history of "planned obsolescence." Companies that designed failure into their products, survived, while those that made the reliable products, lost the very customers that purchased that product. en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Planned_obsolescence Thanks for the content. Keep up the good work. בס'ד
There is one more step to this video. At minute 9:00 when totally disassembled. The very tip of the nozzle is also able to be unscrewed. Once you unscrew that, there is another O-ring. In my case I knew it was there because I could see that it had come "unseated." I think when you dis-assembled it. It re-seated itself and began to start working again. Mystery solved. Thank you very much for this video. It was extremely helpful and I agree it is an elegant piece of engineering.
Usually when I get to the point of moving on from something that I can't get apart to fix I cut it in half. Barbaric but effective from a learning perspective. The path you took was a more elegant and rewarding on this one. It's like you finally won a multi-year battle against an opponent that actually has no offense....frustrating until the moment of victory.
Simple and elegant yet subtle and cunning. I've found on many occasions that just taking something apart and putting it back together solves the issue but of course, it's not always that easy.
Exactly! Usually, 80% of being a mechanic is cleaning parts. 15% is then arranging/remembering parts. The remaining 5% is ordering/fixing parts. In those cases when "it's not always that easy," the _repairing_ of parts instead becomes 99% of the total. Count a snapped motor mount bolt in that latter category.
Wonderful teardown and explanation 👏 and in answer to your quandary, I would posit that its always a lack of understanding that leads to frustration, the secret is finding the entertainment is solving the problem, not just chucking the widget into a bin and grasping for a new one. 😀
oddly enough, today I was looking at those exact brass sprayers at a farm supply store, out of frustration at the expensive multi-spray pattern sprayer I bought last year. I gave it to my friend to wash his car with, and when I got it back it was leaking from every single possible seam and joint. And I cannot disassemble it without cutting the injection moulded rubber. Those old-timey brass nozzles really are the way to go, and anything containing any amount of plastic in its function is built guaranteed to fail it seems
My hot water faucet in my upstairs bathroom sink is dripping and I can't figure out how to disassemble it...or at least I couldn't yesterday. Perhaps i'll take another look.
In my last house, the downstairs laundry sink had a slow drip for close to a decade. When selling the house, following the home inspection, the realtor tried to use it as leverage. After hearing this, I had it fixed 30 minutes later!
Faucets are tricky if they’re too old 10yrs+ in my experience. When it really is worth the time to just replace them. However some could be fixed by tightening a screw or a new seal somewhere. Beat of luck! You can’t break what’s already broke!
@@pocket83squared this was the funniest story I've heard this month it could be a problem not worth fixing but as soon as money is involved it sure gives you that extra incentive, but the worst part about doing these type of delayed for years job to quickly is it often makes you feel stupid for leaving it so long, what was wrong with the tap?
I'm more surprised those tiny threads didn't strip out way before now. That's really not much material. Then again, there is sort of a 'boss' to take some stress off them. As for another less-than-obvious leaky nozzle story, i have encountered a similar issue with an air quick release. It would leak but only if something was plugged in. Long story short, by holding the hex end with a wrench while turning the front-most ring (the one on the very end, opposite end of the threads for the hose) i was able to screw the parts back into place and stopped the leak. Looks like it was made that way so that the release collar, spring, and the retainer balls could be put in place. Since there are no gaskets there usually there is no need what so ever to take that particular joint apart, so it's not obvious.
yesterday, i encountered a nice puzzle that was similar in some aspects. at work a cable of a fancy speaker system had separated from its plug, no idea how. i took the opportunity to begin the disassembly, the weird part was that there were 4 holes where the cables could be tucked in, but there were only 2 cables. so i had a look at another cable, to see which ones were the right holes. at one point i thought i had broken the second cable, because the plug wouldnt thread back on... but after some more tinkering i found the solution and both cables are back in operation xD my boss was quite happy, he had already thought of contacting the guy who sold us the system and im pretty sure that guy would have no idea about how these plugs are constructed :D *the video description reminds me of a book that im currently reading, its called qualityland. in a dystopian future were in a very ironic way the protagonist has to deal with even more ads and data collection than today. in a very funny way there are also some ai that are quite human in their behaviour, as in a fight roboter, that has ptsd and a writing ai with writers block :)
I think a third part of the problem is the companies that produce the things we buy from cars all the way to hose nozzles no longer consider ease of repair ability when designing their products. A side affect of our “disposable” society. Then of course there are the times when your own frustration blinds you and once you calm down the problem becomes clear.
I'm usually rather good at fixing things, I was humiliated to be defeated by a garden hose nozzle. I watched your video, I tried (again) to remove the bottom part, by hand, then with vise-grip pliers, nope, didn't work, so I looked at the reversed thread area and I saw a very fine bead of solder... it looks like Orbit (I think it was) "improved" their design. it's the second time that I'm really angry at a company for a being obviously dishonest, the first was a $25 can opener from Cuisinart with a spacer that was made of plastic instead of metal, it lasted 3 months, I use camping cans opener now, it works perfectly.😊
Hey pocket, another excellent video btw. I was curious as to when we will see a new main channel video. I particularly love the game idea's you come up with and I'm looking for a project to make this summer. Previously I had made an iso-path board. It is such an amazing game and everyone i've shown it to loves it. It's truly a genius idea for a game.
Thank you. That's really appreciated. I love that game. Several games and puzzles are finished. Working on a few of their videos right now, but demand is really down, so it's tough to release original ideas for so little compensation; lots of work goes into it. Really sorry about this. Just need a way to better monetize before giving away patent-worthy creations. '40 Bridges' didn't even cover the costs of its materials. When I say sorry, I mean it. I'd love to show people like you some of the things I've worked on. Please be patient.
It amazes me how some things are put together. I think they design them on purpose to not be repaired so you buy new and keep the consumer spending economy going.
this is a long shot but i have to try but there was a video where you talked about your views on intuition and how it doesn't exist. i've always taken that in since ive seen it but im useless in finding anybody talking about it. i might not have the words to find it but i heard it on one of your channels. If you read this i would be grateful if you or anyone else linked the video im thinking about or any articles/ books that talk about intuition in the same way. just curious, looking forward to seeing the greenhouse video go up whenever btw ^_^
That could be anywhere. I've been complaining about human intuition for some time now, so it's been discussed at length in multiple videos and their descriptions, not to mention the comments. One case that springs to mind is in reference to Bertrand Russell, who once made the point that a person who relies on his own 'common sense' walks around mostly blind. His precise phrase was having "no tincture of philosophy," which is to say that the uncritical mind will be more easily victimized by bias. Here's a link to one of my Russell readings: ruclips.net/video/HKODCDP0QmY/видео.html This might be the one where the quote was, and there might be something of relevance for you there in the video's description. Feel free to continue the discussion with me for as long as you're interested. Naturally, the idea is quite counter-intuitive, which makes it downright interesting. Also, it helps to keep natural selection in mind when thinking about the psychology of the intuitive sense. Ask yourself what benefit cautious uncertainty would have for our predecessors, when they had only a split second to decide whether it's a predator or not. Clearly, evolution will favor the tendency of the bold to act on false-positives. One more thing: the more you realize the flaws inherent to intuition, the more you'll start to see how dangerous it all is, especially considering how heavily we rely on it. Consider the physics of driving a car at 70 mph; who hasn't done it? But who would dare walk a ledge at 50' high? They're both equally dangerous actions--but we've not been selected for speed, so we're reckless. On the evolutionary timescale, we just started moving fast yesterday, but we've been climbing trees for ages. In fact, everything is even a visual blur to us at speed! A blur--just like our intuitions about how 'safe' 70mph really is.
"I'm sure you can find one if you want one" Ah, The pains of being a RUclipsr. Where if you show a tissue box you'll get 20 Questions asking what brand and where they can get it.
I feel that that nozzle is over engineered for no reason whatsoever. Complex doesn’t mean better. It is an interesting design but in my opinion unnecessary.
While I haven't fully wrapped my head around why they choose to make a more complex design. I would suspect either to increase flow rate, particulate size able to pass through, or decrease cost of manufacturing. Most companies aren't in the business of burning money.
Safety gas cans can burn in hell, which they probably will given how much gas I spill all over them, the ground, myself, and whatever I'm filling. Seriously, I've spilled at least an order of magnitude more from the supposedly spill-proof safety cans than I ever did from normal gas cans.
You said a mouthful, man. Those things are a physical symbol of everything that's wrong with this country. I've been working on a few ideas for simple DIY replacements, but I haven't quite nailed it enough to put one to video, yet. That's #2 on my lifetime invention goals list, though. #1 being a windshield wiper blade that isn't in need of replacement every time it's been exposed to sunlight.
