Beats paying for $140 a yard and all the labor to pour a retaining wall, that's for dang sure. And a fella can move the wall anytime. Sounds pretty smart if you ask me lol
We only have one concrete supplier within 100 miles, and they said the "$140 a yard" is now a "limited time offer" so those blocks seem smarter at $40 each. Wish I could get them here, I'd have a big stack of them!
When I saw you fumbling with that freshly welded piece of metal I said out loud "Mike, you're a firefighter - put water on the damn thing" I hope all is going well for you and yours. Great video!
GREAT JOB and TIMING! Seems like a decade ago that MIKE introduced the SPEED BINDERS and many channels use them and others don't. Hats off for your efforts in this video to do a MEANINGFUL follow-up INCLUDING - UPDATES, MAINTENANCE, REPAIR, DISASSEMBLY & back! The manufacturer should use your video VIRAL!
Thank you for showing your take down. You talked about salt on roadways. And you mentioned ( Fluid Film) worked meany year driving the rigs that put the salt & Sand plowed the snow and ice off roadways. The last year I worked drove the salt BRINE sprayer. We had a tank on dump bed ( 700) gallons. Instead of sander box spreader. I would spray down the read drive axil of dump truck everytime I came in to refill tank, or take a lunch break. End of shift. Spray fluid Film all over, I also used WD-40 in spray bottle. Just buy it in gallon container. I can tell you are SALT brine dump truck had no corroded issues on axil. Some of the other trucks that just used water to clean of axil, well I saw a lift base support completely cracked in half. You ask why the other trucks were not sprayed with ( Fluid Film) my supervisor thought I was full of BS, he was a total control freak, very EGO driven. If he did not come up with idea, it was all garbage as far as he was concerned. I can tell you from driving the trucks that get beaten with the salt BRINE the most on vehicle. That ( Fluid Film) works, please people try it. It helps also on loader bucket. Coat bucket with film completely. Let it sink in. It will keep dirt from sticking to your blade's and bucket's, it works.
Snap over binders, ratchet binders and speed binders ... what next? "Space Binders" ... sounds like a 60's cartoon. Last time I had a chance to use a binder there was a choice of ratchet or snap over, I garbed the snap over binder because I had never used a ratchet style and didn't want to take the time to learn in the heat of the moment. Yup it has been awhile. Thanks for showing how that magic worked ... LOL Video as usual grand slam.... Oh oh oh TouchDown!!!!!! sUperBowL.
At the beginning I wondered what in the world was a speed binder - well at least I had worked it out before they were put to use. Thanks for the lesson. Always learning.
258k views as of my comments on Dec 31st not too shabby there my Captain. I wish you a Happy New Year , favorable winds ,fair seas and good sailing there sailor.
And NOW for USING the SPEED BINDERS for GOOD BUDDY - MASTER 'CHRIS'! That was a SMOOTH operation to say the least. On the first block I was surprised how his tractor rolled up to the block EFFORTLESSLY and said, "THIS WAY - LET'S GO"! All went well and as always, I love the care you take of MIKE'S equipment regardless what it is!
I think it is ausom that you are a Firefighter , l also am a Firefighter in my home town for going on 30 years. Volunteer that is too me its very rewarding to help ower neighbors ,keep up the ausom work and be safe ! !
i remember as a kid we had a ponderosa in our town great food. chris getting them cheep so when you need them smart. speed binders sure make life easy with fluid film my go to to stop rust. fun time captain cheers.
Very nice video Capt. Loved the walk through and review on the binders and always nice to see when a company takes customer input and tweaks accordingly. That's a pretty fancy valve with a float feature you got there, should come in handy for that post pounder you've talked about. Can't wait to see the mods on the 755. Keep up the great work and thanks for bringing us along for the ride 😁👍
Can’t beat the price for those blocks and you can do so much with them. Speed binders good for you with all that hauling you do for DP. Keep them coming 👍🇺🇸
I appreciate the 2 year update on the speed binders. I was waiting to see if they lasted before I invested in some. Being rebuildable is definitely a plus. I'm usually cautious when new stuff comes out and wait to see if it lasts. I'm still not sure this whole internet thing will work out. 😁 Stay safe brother.
Great video as always Mike. This comment is sort of pertinent. I went to the lumber yard with my nephew this morning to get some,,, lumber. It was time to tie it down, so I said Chris, do you have rope or ratchet straps? He had one rachet strap that had frozen mud in the ratchet. I told him again for the 57th time, maintain your sh&^ so it will work when you need it. You should also carry more than on strap when you get lumber. He takes after his grandfather when it comes to equipment maintenance.
I had a job in winter of 08 driving a mixer. I use to set up those form boxes for the bin blocks. We had some with a big rubber pad form That you oil up and put in the bottoms To make the stone face . Everyone around here uses them with caps to build retaining walls because they’re pre-engineered. You can go pretty high with them without drainage or Geo grid ! Great video
You've driven most all out there. I'd love to drive your PETERBUILT actually. Today would be nice - SUNDAY driver! Take care! (see you on your channel!)
Love it! Outro had me giggling 😂 boom Grindy grindy that’s the way most my work horses end their days 😇 I only ever buy beaters with heaters these days ( diesel creeks phrase pinched ) as my daily driver as it can be abused without worry 👍🏻
It’s always the little maintenance issues that cause the aggravation especially when you need to be somewhere and it malfunctions causing a delay. Liked the vid sir, thanks for the ride along.
@Captain Kleeman The reason why a good drill works better than a impact gun on the chain binders is because a good drill pulls (turns) at a consistent pressure where as an impact is as it name implies uses repeated impact to loosen/tighten a fastener. That is why an impact can loosen a stuck/seized fastener and not break it compared to if you put a long “breaker bar” on the same stuck/seized fastener and pull on it you will break it. FYI if you are assembling something that is carbon steel on carbon steel you are far better off using a good quality“Waterproof Grease” than Anti-Seize. Anti-Seize is best used on Aluminum, Stainless Steel and where dissimilar metals come in contact with each other such as Aluminum and Steel. Most Anti-Seize compounds are Not Waterproof nor do they have good lubricious properties. Anti-Seize is meant to prevent galling and to inhibit galvanic corrosion it was not ever intended to be a carbon steel thread lubricant or rust inhibitor. That said some Anti-Seize compound now have some lubricant in them because of the chronic misuse of the product because nobody read the material data sheets and instead thought if this goop turns me and everything else silver that comes near it as well as costing a lot more than a petroleum based or synthetic waterproof grease that it must be better but in reality it’s not. The easy self test of how well or not anti-seize stays around on threads in the weather is to disassemble something you put it on after 6 months or so in the weather compared to something you assembled using a waterproof grease. The reason I keep emphasizing waterproof grease is because many greases that are plant based are not waterproof and even some petroleum based ones because of how they are refined are not waterproof. Just a FYI when I was still driving I used to break apart pallets and cut the boards down from them to use as on hard edges to prevent damage and keep my chains from coming loose. Lastly one thing you or DP might consider is instead of a cordless drill to tighten the speed binders I’d use the an good quality air drill (No Harbor Fright) and install a 20 gallon (or more)aux air tank on the truck or trailer that way as long as the truck has air your drill has power and you never have battery problems again. Have to say I remember when those concrete blocks were 10 bucks, admittedly they were not poured in as nice as form nor did they have the locking ridge, I think the concrete company I used to get them from went up to 20 a piece but if you paid cash and bought 5 you got the 6th one free
Good Sunday morning with my coffee and Kleeman. 😊Dirt Perfect has names for You guys, Man behind the scenes, Mr. Millenial . I think You should be called Mr. Maintenance !
I'm not very early this week but I can say when I scan thru my youtube subscriptions and Captain Kleeman is in the listing I choose it as my first to view..ahead of Matt's OffRoad, Fab Rats, Diesel Creek and many others, Might be the theme music??
@@CaptainKleeman I watch you 1st, then the others are viewed according to their interest level at the moment....Your channel is better than you realize, I suspect as the percentage of people who are exposed and watch exceeds (let's say) 10% your growth curve will raise progressively higher and faster ...now a question, Do Native American Trail Trees hold any interest for you? Seems like a low maintenance item, you already have the resources and growing several replicas could add a few minutes of content when ever you wanted to include it,just a thought.
I chuckle whenever people here in the US complain about fuel prices because I know most of the rest of the world has to pay by the liter and it always comes a lot more than what we pay.
Buy one of the ( CAT) potable CJ1000DXT You can play in your drill, AC power plug in on it. Then you can charge it from your truck with converter. That way you can carry it around with you to chain binders. I have used mine to lift dump trailers, that battery had lost it's power to lift the heavy dirt load. Sorry for all the input. But because you were talking about maintenance issues.
Thanks for sharing your thoughts, ideas and videos. Always liked the speed binders. After first seeing them on DP’s or your channel I later saw a video of someone walking thru trade show. One of the interesting products was a radio transponder chip that could be built into hand tools and provide tracking and statistics of the tool to the user on their cellular phone 📱. I thought then and still do that if a person could develop a load cell into a chain link connected to an app via a chip as these guys were selling you would have a gold mine. I thought it would be a natural enhancement to be added to the speed binders since they are already an improvement. With the things I thinking of, you could have an app that monitors your load securement dynamically, provide a documentation trail for transit that everything was secured while transported and an alert if a load needs attention. Tried suggesting it to the speed binder people however got no response. 😂. Thanks for reading my nonsense, always enjoy your videos. Wishing you and your family the best.
Speed binders must be doing something right . I see lots of Herc rental delivery trucks using them . Andrew Camarata will put his through the torture test lol . Be safe Captain K
Something also worth mentioning on speed binders, or Atleast in my opinion Because it’s the reason I bought them - due to mechanical advantage of a worm drive setup, it’s very very difficult for them to loosen up from vibration going down the road. For what it’s worth.
Very good point, I've never had one loosen up on me from the binder itself. It's always from things like today, the concrete chipping or something like that.
Great point Jason. I have also found that placement of the handle against the floor of the trailer allows the handle to act as a reaction bar, storing all the energy and keeping the binder from loosening. Properly tensioned, it should take about 15 -20lbs of pressure to lift the handle off the floor.
Hey I noticed you had to replace a broken grease fitting some actually come with but if you cut a piece of pipe big enough you can weld it around the fitting just tall enough and big around enough it will protect the fitting other wise they stick out and will get broke off all the time
How does the trailer ride, pull & stop since Clinton and the guys at C&C Equipment serviced it? I mean, is the difference noticeable? Anyway, thanks for taking the time to make videos. They're quite enjoyable.
You mentioned that levee at 19:56. I've never lived in an area where they are used. Is there anything interesting you can reveal about them? I assume they've been around for a quite a long time. Are they ever breached?
Speed binders should recess the grease fittings so the fittings would last longer. Which would mean the binder would stay greased better. That first binder you were working on was very dry and dirty inside. I assume because of the broken grease fitting.
Hey captain great video how do you like the rebuilt trailer Clint did them u bolts look real bad good thing Dp got them fixed you may have gotten the blame for them if they broke 😂😂😂😂.brake good? keep up the great work 👌👍😎✌️🇺🇲
Mike, @21:33 I noticed that the speed binder cover was off the speed binder, did that just break because when you left the concrete yard, I believe it was fine. YT Boat, are you planning on using prefab concrete floors (Like Andrew Camarata used on his container building) for the second floor or will it be a wooden structure?
I'm sure I saw a video of a them pouring concrete on the floor of the YT Yacht. I think it was hand carted into the structure by wheelbarrow for some reason, maybe a pump wasn't available. Took Mike a couple of days to skin then finish.
Two years already???? You are making us feel older Mike 😱🤣 They have certainly earned their keep, wonder how many times they paid for themselves? Boom boom grind, think it may be time for the car to visit Dr. Car ..... 😬 Enjoy you time off from work, to do more work !!! 😉💪
waboom grindy grindy, my mustang did a bzrrrrr so i had to replace the starter haha, looks like clint and co did a great job on the trailer, they got a good trailer shop there.
Yupp and he did mention after fixing them that he hauled the cubes for Farmer Chris before he fixed the Speedbinders but ran the footage after the repair.
Sorry about the Subaru. If I still had a need for the Speed binders, I would buy some. I sold all but 1 of my tractors and the last one will probably stay where it is at until I sell it. Keep the videos coming. Any chance we could get some firehouse videos?
@@CaptainKleeman yes you can, you can film you and family roasting marshmallows around a fire. :p make smores with your girls today, celebrate my b-day.
Boy that Farmer Chris must be a real sucker buying everyone’s leftover concrete!!
Beats paying for $140 a yard and all the labor to pour a retaining wall, that's for dang sure. And a fella can move the wall anytime. Sounds pretty smart if you ask me lol
One thing for sure he's smart enough to stock up on it when it's cheaper just like all that clay pipe he has stocked up on too. 😉
We only have one concrete supplier within 100 miles, and they said the "$140 a yard" is now a "limited time offer" so those blocks seem smarter at $40 each. Wish I could get them here, I'd have a big stack of them!
Farmers are wise !
It is not really leftover, just precast 😉
When I saw you fumbling with that freshly welded piece of metal I said out loud "Mike, you're a firefighter - put water on the damn thing" I hope all is going well for you and yours. Great video!
Was it hot? No, i just didn't want to look at it very long.

Very good point, I've never had one loosen up on me from the binder itself. It's always from things like today, the concrete chipping or something like that.
Great point Jason. I have also found that placement of the handle against the floor of the trailer allows the handle to act as a reaction bar, storing all the energy and keeping the binder from loosening. Properly tensioned, it should take about 15 -20lbs of pressure to lift the handle off the floor.
another great video, as always really enjoy your video's.
Hey I noticed you had to replace a broken grease fitting some actually come with but if you cut a piece of pipe big enough you can weld it around the fitting just tall enough and big around enough it will protect the fitting other wise they stick out and will get broke off all the time
Good video my friend !!!! Thank you !!! ❤️😎
Thanks for watching!
How does the trailer ride, pull & stop since Clinton and the guys at C&C Equipment serviced it? I mean, is the difference noticeable? Anyway, thanks for taking the time to make videos. They're quite enjoyable.
Trailer is awesome!
How much do they weigh?
Outtro... it's just tough to say goodbye.
God bless.
Wow I haven't seen a Ponderosa Steak House in decades. 😮😀 Boom grindy grindy?😬
You mentioned that levee at 19:56. I've never lived in an area where they are used. Is there anything interesting you can reveal about them? I assume they've been around for a quite a long time. Are they ever breached?
The last time the river reached that levee was in 1997.
Interesting video,something different 👍👍👍😎😎😎
Hey appreciate ya watching!
Oh ya I now see you already have some that do have a piece of pipe protecting the fitting
Yeah. So speed binders sell a collar that protect the zerks, I thought he had some in the shop. Going to have to get some more ordered
Speed binders should recess the grease fittings so the fittings would last longer. Which would mean the binder would stay greased better. That first binder you were working on was very dry and dirty inside. I assume because of the broken grease fitting.
Their new model has protective collars around the zerks, if you notice in the video, several of them have that on there
Hey captain great video how do you like the rebuilt trailer Clint did them u bolts look real bad good thing Dp got them fixed you may have gotten the blame for them if they broke 😂😂😂😂.brake good? keep up the great work 👌👍😎✌️🇺🇲
Trailer turned out awesome! They did a great job
nice thing is with the speed binders you can use a ratchet and socket if your batteries are dead great video those blocks are far more expensive here
Exactly
For as much flack you catch from an unknown person, your sure a hell of a hand to have around Capt.
Mike, @21:33 I noticed that the speed binder cover was off the speed binder, did that just break because when you left the concrete yard, I believe it was fine. YT Boat, are you planning on using prefab concrete floors (Like Andrew Camarata used on his container building) for the second floor or will it be a wooden structure?
I'm sure I saw a video of a them pouring concrete on the floor of the YT Yacht. I think it was hand carted into the structure by wheelbarrow for some reason, maybe a pump wasn't available. Took Mike a couple of days to skin then finish.
@@bfcmik I'm asking about the future second floor!
It was definitely not hand carted in lol, was finished the same day.
It will be an Icf floor system
I was just reading the comments to see if I was the only one to see that lol. 😂😂👍
Two years already???? You are making us feel older Mike 😱🤣
They have certainly earned their keep, wonder how many times they paid for themselves?
Boom boom grind, think it may be time for the car to visit Dr. Car ..... 😬
Enjoy you time off from work, to do more work !!! 😉💪
Thanks Alex!
waboom grindy grindy, my mustang did a bzrrrrr so i had to replace the starter haha,
looks like clint and co did a great job on the trailer, they got a good trailer shop there.
They did an awesome job in the trailer
The first speed binder you re tighten was broken, one of the face plates was off ☹️🇬🇧🇬🇧👍👍
Yupp and he did mention after fixing them that he hauled the cubes for Farmer Chris before he fixed the Speedbinders but ran the footage after the repair.
What Wayne said
I wonder if a steel tube could be installed around grease zerk to protect it when being thrown.
If you look close some of them have collars around the zerks. Speed binders sells that as well and they work great!
Awesome video
Thank you sir!
is this the first load sentence the trailer got fixed at C&C
Dang those concrete 6’ blocks are 75.00 here in Sw Washington state
Ouch!
Sorry about the Subaru. If I still had a need for the Speed binders, I would buy some. I sold all but 1 of my tractors and the last one will probably stay where it is at until I sell it. Keep the videos coming. Any chance we could get some firehouse videos?
Unfortunately can't film anything fire related
@@CaptainKleeman yes you can, you can film you and family roasting marshmallows around a fire. :p
make smores with your girls today, celebrate my b-day.
