I want to thank everyone of you guys that have taken their time to watch my video, let me know what color you all like and any other input you have on this machine🙂
A green paintjob would be something, you don't see that very often. Love the effort you put into the machine and video. I hope there are not more hidden issues on the motor, valveblock and pump side of the excavator...
Definitely has to be blue😎
I have as many parts as you need for this machine
@@DSIreland new or used parts?
That orange looks pretty good.
This guy is not scared
Holy smokes. Think I will rebuild my excavator under the porch roof. Amazing
Hahah love it!😊
Cab back on! You can always run it with open windows and door, but it’s a much bigger pain to get rained on from all sides when you don’t have the cab on.
The factory orange with a slate gray is probably your best option
As a British subscriber, it's great to see a business from the UK show you what our level of customer service is on your parts
yes sir!😊
It was very interesting to see all the British writing on the newspapers it was all packaged in. 31:15
It’s nice to see someone taking pride in their business and country.
Finally ! Someone that cleans the stuff before working on it !!! Good Job !
Thank you!
I really like your videos because it’s real work without drama. But most of all it’s your down to earth attitude. You come across as nice guy. God bless.
Thank you so much 😊
Talk about being "rode hard and put away wet". That machine is the true meaning!!! Love your channel. You are never afraid to fix what seems to be the unfixable!
Your patience and attention to detail is awesome to see, can't wait to see the next episode.
I'm glad it has a owner that will take care of it.
Thank you very much!
I think the orange and black would look slick on there. Lots and lots of work but it’s going to be so nice when you finish it up. Great job as always. At least it’s got a solid running engine. It’s just every other component that needs love. Thank you for sharing the journey 😎😎😎
Hey Alex! Yes it’s a ton of work as you know, it’s always nice to see you here! Many blessings brother!
Yes, the Black Trim and Burnt Orange would look great
Samee
That was great man! It still amazes me how you remember where each and every little part goes back to, looking forward to part 2, God bless.
Hey thanks brother!! I guess I have a photographic memory or somthing lol hope you are doing good man!
Most underrated channel on RUclips. Love the rehab vids man. That thing needs a ton of work, which makes the videos even better.
I've pointed this channel out to fans of Mustie1. Hopefully this channel will grow like his has!
Milking those cylinders was really the money shot of the video.
I was thinking about you this morning wondering if everything was ok, and low and behold here you are!! Hope you and your family are ok and your pup. Thank you for all you do making these good vids. God bless you my friend!!!
thank you so much my friend!! God bless you as well!
People always mention how good this guy is at mechanical work, and rightfully so, he's one of the better youtubers on here. But......they always forget to say how awesome his camera work is, the perfect angles, lighting, and believe it or not, storytelling. Its one thing to film with great shots, but pacing and the storytelling is what keeps it interesting. Always a pleasure watching.
wow! thanks man I really appreciate that! means a lot!
I don't understand why you don't have more subscribers, great content with no BS
I think he had his channel stolen for a while. Glad to see it back.
Thank you very much! Well yes my channel was hacked and I don’t put out as many vids as other channels so that could be why…. Or my videos just suck lol
@@TheHomePros6221your videos don’t suck
@@TheHomePros6221 who would hack your youtube channel?
Right?! If you combine the best parts of Mustie1, Diesel Creek, and Andrew Camarata you get The Home Pros. Top notch content! I don’t regularly comment or like on YT. But if we all commit to “smashing” and “dropping” for this fella, we can help him get the recognition he deserves for all the hard work he puts in.
Thank you for the content. I like the production values, not too much handheld camera. I know setting up each shot is work and some of us appreciate it. Can't wait for part 2.
I like the orange color.
me 2
Man you made a lot of progress on your new mini. You definitely have a lot of motivation to take on this project. I’m looking forward to the next part 😊👍 thanks for sharing your progress!
hey mike thank you very much!! it’s always a treat to see you here😊 I hope all is well with you and your family!!
@@TheHomePros6221 Right on! Yes all is well with me and my family 😊
Have a great weekend 👍
PS it was great to see your other mini and skid steer in this video, I remember those videos of you repairing them and now you have some good machines 👍
Do you have a photographic bolt memory? What is your system for keeping track of all the bolts to their homes?
Umm somthing like that lol it’s just kinda like common sense to me 🤷
I think you should keep the cab and install an RV AC unit on the top😊
that’s a good idea
Hey Darrell. Michael from Sydney Australia. I have just come across your amazing channel. I love your filming style and creative mechanic skills. Im enjoying how you get us in there with you when your fixing something. I cant help but celebrate with you when an old clapped out machine pops off. Ive gone back over 2 years and have started watching your older videos. Keep up the great work. SUBSCRIBED !!
Hey micheal! thank you soo much!! I really appreciate your wonderful comment it means a lot to me 🙂
I’m a new subscriber and happy to see a new video already. Can’t wait to watch your old videos too.
Welcome aboard my friend!
I was delighted to see you had a video up as I’ve been watching for a few years as I was watching I realised its been a while since your last,then I saw I’ve been unsubscribed I suggest you point out to your viewers they check their subscriptions as the channel is a great one and you don’t deserve ,that hope your heart and health is improved
Thank you so much Jeffrey!
I always like your videos. You find some awesome well-used equipment and patiently bring them back to life.
I love the way you baby talk to your dogs, too.
You need not apologize for the cicadas. They are just part of Nature and you live in a very cool setting.
Keep making these videos please. Eager to see part 2!
Thank you very much! I really appreciate it!
I love it how you fells over the pond trust those adjustable wrenches so much. I had couple of them and they were the least reliable tool I had. They would slip constantly
Hey up buddy, good to see you back..😊 Your equipment videos are my favorite..😊👍
Really looking forward to seeing the results on this machine. Nothing ever phases you, and you leave nothing needing further work...if something needs a strip down, clean and repair, then it gets that from you - no corners are cut and no bodge repairs.
Will be a top notch machine when you have finished with it..👍
Keep up the great work, Darrell...I can't wait for the next installment ...😊👍
hey Dave! thanks a bunch brother!
The orange an gray wld look good
Hello my friend glad to see you here!
@@TheHomePros6221 yes sir enjoyed the video good work
Boy, that thing's pretty clapped out for $2k! But one thing's for sure - you're not afraid of hard work! Excellent job so far. This was my first video of yours, subbed! Can't wait for pt. 2!
@ 29:40 cleanest workbench top evah seen! lol
I just cleaned it for the video lol it’s not my main work bench
I'm looking forward to part 2. Very nice place you have there for working. It appears that you already have quite a bit of equipment. That's helpful when you need it. A very well video with no sound problems, no music to listen to and so on. Keep up the great work.
thank you very much my friend!!
great video, really look forward to your posts. Your forte is cleaning up wiring messes, I remember a dump truck you worked your magic on! I agree leaving the cab off only if you keep it dry, shedded. with all the rain & humidity in the south that would be my concern. glad to see you still have your genie, thought you might have sold it. so long from Montana
thank you!! I still haven’t decided yet but we will see🤷 yes the genie has helped a lot I wanted to make a part 2 but part 1 didn’t do so well..
this is what 2 grand gets you now a days? No wonder why used machines are the price they are. Looked like the swing bearings have play. Crazy how people can think this is worth 2 grand in this condition.
prices are insane right now. I've seen 70s/80s skidsteers with blown engines for 4k+
This is why a lot of guys are buying those Chinese mini excavators. For 6 to 7 K you can get a brand new machine. Supposedly they're not that bad.
you got that rite!
I’m not really a fan of the Chinese ones they beat you up and I like Japanese quality
@@TheHomePros6221depending on how your operating it, they'd beat you up. But the Japanese hydraulics are so much smoother, and have more finesse with your inputs than the Chinese machines. If they put throttle bodies on the motors, so it wasn't just idol or full revs, they'd run the pumps a bot smoother, and wouldn't beat you up as much!
I like the orange and gray
Orange and Dark Grey base would look cool!
I really like that factory orange color. You do great work! I really enjoyed the videos you. Put out! You take on huge projects. Keep up the good work. Hopefully your channel will grow.
Thanks a bunch!
You need an electric winch for the trailer. Will save you a bunch of headaches trying to come-a-long your way up the ramps.
I sure do!
To the Home Pros ,I would like to thank the support you get behind the camera as these great videos dont just happen as the presentation I see as acompleted video , so great thanx to your missus which we dont see , but with out her support these videos would not be the same ,be blessed the Home Pros ,regards Rob .
hey rob thank you but unfortunently I make and edit all these videos by myself, my wife doesn’t get really involved with my RUclips ☹️
Great to see the good old UK 🇬🇧 came up with the goods for you. 👍
Great videos buddy keep em coming
Thanks 👍
Total admiration for this young fellow nothing seems to phase him
Love this new series. This machine is clapped out and i just love it! You can do anything! Will watch every second of it!
You are a very hard working individual. I admire your intelligence. God bless you. Excellent video.
Thank you very much God bless you as well🙂
I would like to see you paint it in accordance with your other machines. I sure do enjoy all your vcideos.....keep up the good work.
I did pretty much this exact same job over the Christmas holidays last year to my old Kubota KX36-2. Removed and replaced every pin and bushing from kingpost to bucket, swapped the links, stripped and painted the entire boom, replaced the seals in the cylinders. It made a vast difference to how it digs, no more sloppy wobble bucket.
Now I just have the swing motor to refurbish next Christmas :)
that’s awesome man!
WOW! So much stuff in a little box!
Another abused neglected machine being brought back to fresh and usable status! Good Job and look forward tot he next part(s) finishing it up! I like the orange which is something like what Hitachi used or uses still on their excavators?
Great video as always. I have a 1992 Hanix (Nissan) Mini Giant N260-2 escavator I bought a couple years ago. Put new tracks, replaced all the outside hydraulic hoses. Love the machine, but like yours the bucket and bucket links are loose and wobbly. Curious the names of the two companies you purchased your parts from. I tried doing google searches with no luck. I have the electronic control box that needs replacing as well. Can you provide contact information so I can either online or phone for parts
The first one is called mini excavator Centre and the other is called Riley pant spares tell Darren darrell sent you from his utube video
That there is the exact kind of project I've been hunting for.. I love bring dead equipment back to life but I havent found a single Mini Ex remotely close to me for anywhere under 6k, well aside from the Chinese ones flooding the market. Thanks for the video
Love how you clean stuff thoroughly. Also, the way you disassemble machines and re-assemble them has me in awe👍👍👍
Great content. Thanks for not trying to sell me powdered vegetables I can buy at the store.
lol I can’t promise I won’t try to in the future though 🤣
@@TheHomePros6221 psh get paid if you can brother. Will allow you to buy more toys to fix up/break :)
I don’t have a problem with channel sponsorships as long as it’s something that’s actually relevant to the content of the channel.
I have to tell you, I've learned a ton from all of your videos. Don't have the skills you do but at least have an idea of what to look for and so on. Keep it up!
I appreciate that! thank you!
You are doing a great job there Darrell. I also have a good mini excavator but thought of getting something like that one, doing it up and selling to get some extra cash. Cheers Dave.
thank you!! excavators are def a hot commodity and it can be hard to find good deals on em unless they are like this one lol. take care my friend!
Why your channel doesn't have 10x the amount of subs is a mystery. Great content/editing, the right amount of discussion w/helpful hints, and we don't have to listen to loud/non-stop background music. I also appreciate the lack of cussing as well-that and mocking God which permanently sends me packing. Well done. God bless.
thank you so much I really appreciate that and you will never hear me say the Lords name in vain or even cuss I try to keep it family friendly and also try to be a good influence for younger viewers 🙂
I LOVE your “Shop Inspector”. LOL👍. Great video, Toooo the point
This is what i've been looking for your a man after my own heart i love videos that show the bear knuckles of the job .
One of my best subs on RUclips,glad you got your channel back
oh man thank you so much!!
Very good video showing what needs fixing. Brilliant to see the Cicada coming out for their very brief mating season after their underground sojourn. Their complex biochemistry is a whole new world of interest to people like me. Best wishes from the UK..
There was me thinking "mmm that pressure washer isn't doing much" during that time lapse but then you cut to scraping thick chunks off 😂 Great job (you popped up in my feed randomly 👍)
To me, the machine's color is it's identity, i.e. John Deere green, Kubota orange, Caterpillar yellow etc. But hey, it's yours and if you don't care about that stuff, paint it whatever you like.
LOL, my man just chilling as it rolled back off the trailer. 🤣 Nice grab bro! ✊🏻
For the worn pins. Have to capture them, to the thin parts, so that they can only rotate in the thick parts, where the bronze or steel bushings should be. Then you'll be able to hand the machine down in your family.
Best wishes all.
Just wondering if you used a degreaser before you power washed it. Cold water doesn't really remove grease
I use diesel then dawn dish spray
Awesome, so nice seeing your Adventures again!
Glad you like them!
I really like your presentation of the videos. You seem to be all business and not be comedian like most you tubers. Keep up the good work.
I appreciate that!
I think the cabin makes the excavator look like what it is but it might be better to take it off. Quite interesting project and can't wait to see more!!! Black and orange color sceme sounds good👍👍
Great video!! What a great machine for the cheap!
For the future, I learned of a superglue made by 3M for rubber. It's not cheap as far as superglue goes. I've fixed cracks on my tractor tires with this stuff. It's amazing. Those cracks on the tread are completely repairable with this glue. The rubber around the repair will fail before the glue gives up!
Keep up the good work!
I’ll need to check that out!
Awesome, i am very glad when i see you drop a video , thank you for sharing and i learn a lot , i watch your video and i come back to comment 👍👍👍👍
Thank you so much Carlos I love seeing your comments!
Other then the engine this machine is a hunk. You are amazing for seeing this as a project worth the effort. Your work ethic is over the roof. Thanks for showing us what that looks like!
thank you!
Great vid. we get some crazy big crazy cicadas here in northern Australia, also..
Out standing and keep track off that stuff great work can’t wait for
part 3
Nice rebuild and the effort you put in to that clapped out machine. Kudos to you.
Cheers from Finland.
I’ve got the 2 ton version badged as a Mitsubishi , 2500 hrs - on my channel , got all my parts from Riley plant spares too , great job Daryl 🏴👍🏻🙋🏼♂️
oh cool I’ll have to check that out!
Man you are going in deep on this one. At least the parts seem reasonable. Great content. Keep it coming.
thank you!
In my experience, if you are able to move cylinders by hand like you did when draining them, the seals are most definitely worn out and fluid is bypassing the piston.
My thoughts exactly
Viewing from Tokyo on this rainy Sunday evening. Thoroughly enjoyed watching your expertise, precision and determination in restoring your excavator. Well done on your explanations and narrations throughout the video. Thanks for sharing and am looking forward to Part 2.
Glad you enjoyed it! thank you!!
Well I think you got a heck of a deal on it Darrell, but I think you got yourself alot of work also ! I would like to found one of those excavators like that one myself. Good job Man
you got that rite bill!
MM77 Approved 👍🏻👍🏻…………………………I really do enjoy your videos. I love knowing how stuff works , but I would never take things apart like you do. I would just end up taking it to the scrap yard! LOL
Thanks again my friend! I always enjoy your comments!! your a cool dude😎😊
If you would have took that little rib out of the middle of the rubber on the front that would pop red out there without a screwdriver.
Yes I wasn’t thinking lol
Wow, you are amazing. Really know your stuff, but you have to if you are going to have excavation and heavy equipment. I am sure you were "hoping" that not much was wrong with the excavator except what you could see from the beginning, however I am sure you are not surprised at what you are finding. Considering how much a new machine will cost this is probably the best way to go anymore. Looking forward to watching the second part! Thanks for posting.
That machine has had a real hard life . what seemed to be a cheap purchase , ended up a money pit . having said that , I admire your working effort immensely . have to hand you that . with that i have subscribed . I am also from ENGLAND , GB . . KEEP UP YOUR GOOD WORK .
it sure has!! thank you so much my friend and welcome aboard 🙂
I always love seeing a spud wrench used in a video. Great job great video lots of good content
it’s a Klein I used to be a iron worker
@@TheHomePros6221 Good on you! That’s a job that takes some balls. Makes sense now why you have no problem dealing with some of these super sketchy situations you get into!
I vote for the orange/gray combo. I’d put the cab back on and go with an RV A/C unit on the roof like someone else mentioned. Plus if you have to do a job in the rain, you’ll be glad to be under a roof!
that zip tie trick to keep track of the wires was a great idea
I'd advise the black plastic spiral wrap for the hydraulic hoses. Makes it look nice and won't get tore up as much as the steel wire type.
Nice channel btw, no hype or click bait !
Cheers, Ard
That was a awesome video! Boomlift sure came handy lifting that cab 🤩👍
it sure did🙂
Those cicadas are too funny. They act like they're a shop foremen watching over how you take apart that cylinder lol
🤣
Hey brother watching from Australia. Love your channel and no nonsense everyday approach and narration, just subscribed and cant wait to see your new stuff keep up the good work and god bless
Thanks man!!
I always enjoy these videos. Pretty soon you're gonna have a full arsenal of well restored equipment that you saved from the bone yard.
Great video, looking forward to the next one. Doggy loves those cicadas 😊
hahah oh my gosh he couldn’t stop playing with them and eating em lol
So glad to see you back! Love the channel man!!
Appreciate it!😊😊
This channel is what Andrew Camarata used to be a few years ago. The subscribers will take take off at some point, just need to be patient and keep putting out this content
Aw thanks man I really appreciate that, and yes I know what your talking about, don’t get me wrong I love watching Andrew but when a lot of RUclipsrs get big they start changing things and going away from their roots
How about Manitowoc red? That color will give your backyard some class!
$2000!?!? Wow. Was thinking it'd be a deal at $500 max. You're a brave dude.
That was alot of work but you still have alot more to go but when you get done with it will be worth it paint it the orange and gray like you suggested it will look good 👍 looking forward for part #2 👍
Another first class video! Could do with a bit more doggo content though! I was surprised to see stuff you'd ordered from the UK (where I am) I dread to think what the postage or shipping cost you! The term 'clapped out' is used a lot here, I've never seen it used on your side of the Pond! Anyway, thanks for this upload, already looking forward to the next. Take care & best wishes :)
Wow! Those guys really just messed it up but at least it has the right owner now to take it to the correct respectable level. Everything is in your favour and you have the skills to make it better. The color scheme for the excavator : The Orange, Black and Dark Grey would be a lovely combo for that size machine. You should go with the open canopy but make it taller. Those cracks in the main house is the biggest concern, yet I know you will not overlook that. Those insects ---- well lets just say you need to find a solution to get rid of them, to say the least... Awaiting the next episode of the awesome homepros.... Kudos brother...
thank you so much for the kind words!🙂
First video of yours I've watched. Really good. I like how thorough you are. Cicadas seem cool, wish we had them up here (new england). I'd keep it yellow. Would keep the cab; probably better for the machine if it will live outdoors. Maybe replace some windows with screen and add a fan inside if too hot. Deer flies and mosquitoes are bad here and I'm shorter, so I'd prefer the cab I think (mine has none).
Thank you very much! You made some very good points, I think I’m gonna keep the cab
I think you should go with the factory orange and gray. You make awesome videos man keep up the good work. You're my new favorite channel! 🤘🔥
omg that’s awesome !! thank you very much!
wow, that little machine needs tons of love, great job bro😉👍
it sure does!!
You, Sir, are a brave man. I wouldn't have taken that machine for free if they delivered it to me.
lol thanks!
Indeed you need a lathe and a milling machine.👍
sure do!
