    Burners: As an RV technician there are two things that generally cause poor burner flame. First check for debris in the burner head (the obvious first place to look) but second is fuel flow pressure. When pressure drops below what the burner needs the fuel/air mix gets spotty and you will get irregular burn. If there isn't an adjustable regulator in the stove there is one at the bottle or perhaps at the safety shutoff valve. I hope you find an easy solution.

    Good tools selection Johan, Bosch is an excellent brand. I live in the southern US and fighting rust is a constant job in my workshop. My way is to have an "Oiler" on hand which is simply a small can with a cotton towel rolled inside it with about a centimeter of cloth showing at the top. The oiler is filled with a light household oil and you can employ it to wipe a thin film of oil on a tools surface prior to putting it back in its place after a job. For files I use WD-40 to coat them, they never rust in the excessive heat and humidity we have.
    I would not retire those old somewhat rusty tools but refurbish them and keep using them. It is my experience that newer tools, those sold today, tend to be of far lessor quality so I clean up those made back in the day and keep using them
    My best to you three sailors, Vera is looking great, all of you are.

    • @philgray1023

      I never thought about doing that with files. They are usually the first thing to rust. I give mine a trip home for a wire brush, polish and spray with lanotech.

    Great video guys. Agree with the tools. New technology means that lithium powered tools are much improved. So if we were replacing ours we would go for cordless with 2 batteries for every tool. Also good quality hand tools a smoothing plane, saw, tennon and hand, chishels, etc. But a good quality set of drills and a tap and die sets are so needed, punch set and hole saws have paid dividends on Impavidus.

    Take your stove top burners and give them a good cleaning and they'll be like new. It's just carbon crap in the burners from many boil-overs flooding the burner holes. It's no big deal. You might even have to stick a drill bit by hand to clean the holes. Don't give up on it.

    I would highly recommend using the air tight pelican cases with silica packs to store your tools. It helps reduce the exposure to the humidity and lengthens the life span of the power tools. When I lived in Thailand, I went through tools like crazy due to corrosion, especially if they are not used regularly. The new princess looks very content, while supervising your efforts!

    I suggest you test those lights in big waves. Because when you have motion sensors in your wardrobe as the boat moves the clothes in the wardrobe move and the light might detect the movement of the clothes and stay on inside the closed wardrobe, or maybe not, no harm in testing.

    • @CPRebels21
      @CPRebels21 4 года назад +2

      They are supposed to be mounted with the sensor to the door so when the door is closed the sensor is up against the door. Also, the sensor has a range of about a half an inch so as long as they made sure nothing was within that range to the light it wouldn't be triggered.
      With the lights taking 5 minutes to turn off I would of just went with some manual push lights instead.

    Hey Johan, can't you take the motion sensor of the lights out and mount it against the door? That should work, might need lengthening the cable. Ensures that also if the content of the cupboard moves the light does not switch on. Just a thought.

    I'd stump up for a battery Dremel kit with a good selection of accessories. Dremel extras are expensive but cheap alternatives are nearly always rubbish and often last only a few minutes. A gas torch that can run off one of your bottles can do a lot of jobs. A butane soldering iron has been mentioned and is essential. Again buy a good one which can also be used for shrink sleeving.

      Electric appliances when underway require some wattage -- 850W to 1200W typically for a microwave, and similarly for an induction top (varies with burner count and options). That means either running a generator or more renewable power sourcing capacity to keep the batteries fresh. This trade off is why gas stoves are often preferable to electric when afloat.

    If you plan on butchering your furniture, consider the cordless router from Bosch. It's neither big, nor heavy and gives you an edge even straighter and better angeled than from a circular saw, when it's not good enough what the jig saw left behind. Of course there are other tasks it could fullfill, depending on the router bits you take along, making it a quite mighty tool in a small package.

      I saw that too, just a small tab at the top to trigger the sensor.

      seems something as small as a thumbtack may work.

      ​@@Garryck-1 as far as I understood it is designed for detecting the door movement (wood!) so I guess it should work the same ...

    I use a narrow finger width belt sander a fair bit on my boat. Also a dremmil. Good for fiddly varnishing or epoxy prep jobs.

      And get the flex shaft for the dremel, so much more versatile.

    Like you I have all Bosch tools, I sold the ones that work only on 110v and bought there equivalent that uses 18v batteries. I haven’t yet found a good sander (Bosch) that uses a 18v battery, still looking

    I like your tool selection. I have all the same tools but the jigsaw. I think you have a good idea with it and will probably add one to my kit. Thank you.

    I like it when you speak Swedish, such a nice sounding musical language, even for someone who doesn't understand it without the subtitles!

    That’s a great video. I used to work on old cars and spent time as a finish carpenter and was dismayed at the little amount of space afforded for tools. I was really interested to see the tools that you carry and laughed as I also paired down too the same top 5 list as you. When we sold our house I gave my welders, sandblasted , compressors and roll around loaded with speciality tools to my neighbors. It was the best day for him, he still calls and asks what some of the tools are for. After completing our major refit I found that I still had to many redundant and speciality tools so another 400 pounds of tools were donated to a guy in the boatyard that’s was trying too build up his equipment. Letting go of tools was the hardest part of leaving land, there have been many times where working on the boat would have been easy with everything in my home shop. The best advice I was ever given concerning tool was to purchase the nicest tool you can at the time, it will serve you well.

      totally agree! getting rid of my CNC router and SAC45 was tough but too tight a fit on my boat :-) the fully loaded Snapon Classic 96 brought tears to my eyes watching the buyer load it on his truck... but the same batch of hand tools and some other well used tools that have been in my bag since the early 80's now have a happy home in the Foc'sle...

    You can never have enough tools. I use tools daily for construction. We have all cordless tools now and our preference is MAKITA. We've tried a lot of brands, DeWalt, Milwaukee, Bosch, and others. The Makita's have reliably held up the best and been the most reliable. A cordless 1/2" impact gun might be nice. A 1/2" heavy duty drill and impact driver are a must. Good large batteries and chargers. Multi tool blades are ridiculously expensive. Circular saw and reciprocating saw should be in your kit. Even a small Makita portable table saw could be of use now that you have a bigger boat. I know you're experienced and know what you'll best be needing. These are just some suggestions. Take care you kids.
