@@fvsoutherngirlyou drive square head lag bolts with a hammer, we use them to mount brackets to power poles. I usually use a 12 point socket tho and it works great. You just can’t over tighten them. Keep the videos coming!!!!!!
@@fastinradfordable seems like that would make sense. I thought for a second that it would just get hot but with the heat wrap in between it shouldn’t. Or does hvac tape just not conduct the heat? Sorry may sound dumb.
Can we all just pause to appreciate that beyond the self evident humor and self-deprecation, Luke may be one of the most positive and wise people of his age… give your nuts a tugs while you are down there. 18:26min mark is me every time I work on something in the Engine Room
I used to resemble a lot of this. "Shade Tree Mechanics". Not meant to be anything other than complimentary. Means you don't let silly little things like lack of the exact tools and hardware, get in the way of accomplishing things. Just "Git 'er done!" Love your videos Luke. Great mix of humor, common sense and good hard work! Something this country is sorely in need of more of. ONWARD AND UPWARD!
When the grease gun gets stuck, unscrew the metal fitting on the end of the grease gun a little bit(the coupler that fits over the zerk) and it will come off. Easier than changing out a zerk which may end up breaking off from rust.
Hey Luke the noise you heard when you started the Tundra that went away was a secondary air injection pump! It's pumps extra air into the exhaust to increase the oxygen across the catalytic converter to reduce emissions on a cold start.
Omg Sir, you have made my day. I too do the same when making things. I have stared at many a projects to get them done. Thank you so much. Good luck this season.
I cannot get enough of your videos. Not even sure how I found them to be honest. Keep up the good work. Good to see a young person working hard for what they want and not just getting handed what you want.
Crane signals are easy. Thumbs up/down, move the boom up/down Hands together with thumbs pointing out, stretch the boom Finger pointing up/down, cable up/down Pinch of salt up/down cable up/down slowly 😊
As someone with ADHD who's mind wonders A LOT... I really appreciate your constant jumping around and ability to task the way you do. I do the same. Feels like nothing is happening, but everything is slowly getting done! Keep up the great work!
Need 8 point socket to drive a square head lag bolts. Have a few that I got them cheap at flea markets. Have a 1/2" unusual 4 point socket for a 1/2" drive ratchet wrench which probably only paid $2 for the used thing 35 years ago and have used it to drive square headed bolt on Greenlee hand knock outs.
The trash cans. Use a trash bag or some painting plastic. Cut a strip. Spray glue on it. And stick it on the inside of the trash cans to cover all the snag points even bottom.
Holy shit I believe I witnessed a miracle! That bracket you made, short of having some paint on it, was actually incredibly well made and thought out! I don’t believe it! I expected a 12mm ring spanner cut up and epoxied and zip tied onto the old bracket and a bunch of hose clamps but I was genuinely, legitimately surprised!!
When you do a "fish tape line" if you do about twice the length +5, 6 feet you can always leave the line in place and have a semi-permanent fish tape in place for next time, the extraz length lets you go back and forth completely both ways without issue.
Boy that shiny new engine sho' is purdy!. 😅 Btw if you ever need hinge pins and don't have any or can't find them you can strip the flux off of welding rods or use the correct gauge of non-fluxed rod. You just pick the right diameter welding rod cut to length and either spot weld one end or preferably bend the end 90° to give it an easy to pull on handle. They work great. In your application though I'd recommend stainless rod to prevent corrosion and a frozen pin in the hinge, lol.
Those are hard head bolts. They are used for building power line brackets on power poles. Just drive them in with a hammer and then you can back them out with a wrench.
Watching u inspires me to get my butt in gear. Ive been procrastinating on important things i have to get done before i have my baby and im 6 months now and only getting bigger. Also, watching handle that covering with no gloves had me itching like crazy. U crack me up and i really enjoy ur videos. For the record, i dont know how to do any of this so it all looks professional to me. I hope my son ends up having the ingenuity u have.
@fastinradfordable seems like it would defeat the purpose of the glass wrap. Glass wrap is mean to take the sizzle away from the burn. Aluminum will definitely add that sizzle back
@@robertfandel9442 usually their square head would fit into a groove, thus eliminating the use of a tool, to hold it in place, as the nut is tightened.
Focus problem. Instead of stressful context switches cut holes then fit stick pole in holes then context switch cut holes then fit stick pole. Cut holes until all holes are cut safely. Then fit the sticks poles in the brute grey containers.
As a fellow blue collar worker, I can relate to your many thought processes, and dropping something in a hole, find it, and then drop it again back in the hole
for square lugs or screws, use a gator drill tool, or you can also buy a hex set for drills too, I use this for cars or home projects all the time since I got tired of keep turning a wrench
Watching Luke ramble about what he needs to do and in what order to do it is something I can relate to a lot I think we just get that from living on the bay I lose everything after I set it down and spend more time looking for than I do using it
The square head lags are drove in with a hammer. I’m a lineman and we use them on cross arm braces and are sent home with a hammer! We call them hard heads because of that only use a wrench to remove them.
For those square headed lags you might be able to find a 12 point socket that will work. If not they make 8 point sockets aka double square sockets and they will work on square headed lags. Another option is one of those universal sockets that has a bunch of spring loaded pins in it and works on just about any nut or bolt regardless of shape or size.
For the smell in the truck change the cabin air filter ( if it has 1 ) figure a way to but some baking soda in like a plastic sandwich container with holes in the lid and just stick it under the seat. Then put a note on the dash or steering wheel so you remember to take it out in a couple month's. ( you dont need a accidentally situation with a police officer some day )
Just so you know for next time the heat rap for the stack is recommended to be soaked in water before installing it. It allows it to be streched tighter around the pipe then when it dries it shinks a little bit and helps it hold on the pupe tighter.
They make 8 point sockets for square headed bolts. I thoroughly enjoy your show.. reminds me of me when I was your age. I’m 73 now.. keep up the good content. Give my best to your bride.
As for roof. When you rebuild. If the issue is the holes on posts wearing oval. Then you could try the joining staple pads used to create roofing joists. Put them directly under the load of the bolts on the wood for extra support or you could try just metal strap doing the same. Or a size bigger pvc as a bushing to keep bolt from reacting and biting in. Spreading the load. Just seal the ends so no sitting water. Should keep it for the life of the roof.
Just ran across your videos and look forward to watching all of them. Nice to see a young person taking ownership of their life path. Like the Beatles said in the song, "And in the end, the life path you take is equal to the life path you make". Good luck.
Common issue on the hood latch. Lube up the small spring and lever on the latch itself. Then work the release until the handle feels like it has a touch of tension all the way through the pull. You'll need to first completely retract the release spring first. And then lube and work it. It's super easy with 2 people because the first 2,3,4 times you'll need to use a small screwdriver of sorts to retract the release spring inside the latch assbly. Good luck
Man ima 31 year old guy with 3 kids and a wife that was just in a major accident and watching your videos man like make my day just seeing how you problem solve and come up with solution for them just remind me of when I was able to work as a carpenter man and it really makes my day man keep up the hard work man your going to be were you want to be watch
Stainless seizing wire. Every boat needs a spool. Works for fiberglass heat wrap. The wrap will help, but sliding a loose length of heat duct around the whole thing will make it even better.
75/2 = 37.5 not 32.5, I hope that doesn't matter too much. Also buy an 8 or 12 point socket for the square lag bolts, it makes them way easier to put in.
😂 the retired guy stereotype is spot on. Had me dying laughing, just like the guy with the restored 66’ Chevelle that never leaves the garage; matter of fact it may even be the same guy 😂
How about making a small dredge system with your table to dunk pots in. Hook to a small cable let a pulley system yank the pot into the paint and pull it up the table. Dripping excess at the same time. Then you might not get covered in as much paint
Luke next time you put that exhaust wrap on definitely soak it in some water and you will definitely be able to pull it tighter and go a little bit further on the pipe and also it will definitely look much nicer!!! Even if the exhaust wrap says no need to soak it in water I still always soak it in water and it definitely works much nicer!!! Just letting you know!!!!
Thank you Luke for taking my previous comment about doing things right and not getting butthurt about it. I truly didn't mean anything bad by it, just constructive criticism, no hard feelings, I don't do things right 90% of the time, I should listen to my own advice
Hey Luke this is experience talking. Watch those fiberglass rods. As they age they will put tiny little slivers in your hands if you rub up or down on them. Just passing along my hard learned tip. Enjoy your channel. Good luck with the season!!
I’m sorry but I’m cracking up watching you put that hinge back while identifying with all your challenges. Been there, done that, got hundreds of t-shirts to prove it. God bless you Luke and good luck on the season.
Just another thought, carry some socket ends in a container so you don't waste any time on the boat. Could you clean up the shop yard of leaves etc., so things will ot get lost or paint everything you could drop a bright color so you can spot them? Hope I'm not trying to help too much.
8pt sockets... the weird ones in the set that no one uses lol. Those will drive square lags and can also use to remove garboard plugs with square heeasy! 8 Point socket and ratchet, while they do make a good hammer, will also make removing a garboard easy peasy!
This was me but on a smaller scale. Put off servicing the motor til spring, finally service the motor last week, launch couple days ago, remember today that the chartplotter and transducer are friend, get new chartplotter, need to haul boat to mount new transducer on transom, my truck is broken, need to borrow truck, convince friend to let me douse his truck in salt water, repeat.
Your work ethics have to come from your mother! Having lived in Korea and watched the wonderful people work and build things from nothing was amazing! I left Korea in 1968 and miss the people!
stainless takes alot of time unless you step it up from 3/8ths and skip 2 sizes each size up and go push hard for 3 second intervals push hard count to 3 let sit for 5 and push as hard as u can for 3 seconds and repeat
Luke, I feel your pain when it comes to losing things. I've learned many tricks over my years in the shop. My only wish is that I'd paid more attention to my Dad's way of setting up projects like you deal with every year before the season starts. So here goes, could you find an empty p'nut butter jar that's big enough to fit your hand into that has a screw on lid? Take it to your project sight to put those nuts, bolts and washers in while you're working or something that won't tip over while you're working on the boat. Spray paint the outside of it bright orange. Put a piece of masking top on one side top to bottom before you spray paint it so you can peel it off after it dries. You'll be able to see the contents thru the clear plastic jar. When you decide you want to retire someday, start up a Consulting Firm for other crabbers so you can share your hard earned knowledge with others. That is if there are any crabs left to catch of course. Wishing you the best season EVER.
Roof should be a slight nonzero like 0.1 angle so rain A-shape like so rain falls off and you can still sit on wood roof if boat collision iceberg sink wood does not sink in water.
7:55 I'm going to guess you have the grease gun tip tightened down all the way. Try loosening it up a bit and the internal clamp will release the fitting. And 75 divided by 2 is 37.5.

Find a 12 point socket that will fit the square head screw..
8 point works better.
Ball peen hammer
They also make a universal socket that just has a bunch of pins that push it when you push it up to any bolt. Fits everything out there.
@matthewkendall1861 those universal sockets are awful.
Universal sockets are as good for a socket as they are a hammer

You can get square sockets or 8*
Point sockets instead of your typical 6 or 12 point sockets for square head bolts.
Work, your socket will fit the square head. The reason being if it does strip, you have more material there to take it out.
