Howdy! This is the boiler-plate [BOTTOM TEXT] that populates the end of my video descriptions. Tom’s Mechanical Videography is a spin-off hobby RUclips channel I created to house videos related to mechanical systems and DIY stuff. I’m a conservationist/biologist in my professional life but I’ve long had a passion for up-cycling, which is a fancy way of saying I’m cheap and like fixing broken stuff that I get for free. The primary purpose of this channel is a repository for informational videos I make related to solving niche and frustrating problems I encounter. That extends to vehicle and small engine repair videos. The secondary purpose of this channel, and the bulk of its content, is to motivate me to regularly think about and work on the garbage that I accumulate throughout my day to day life. By imposing a demand for [C O N T E N T] and an upload schedule on myself, it helps me actually work on all this trash in my yard. I don’t ever intend for this channel to make money or be successful, nor do I really want it to. I’m making videos as efficiently as I can with a phone camera and 10yo editing software in the limited time I have, which is my excuse as to why they all suck so hard. I have zero interest in making a career out of this or taking anyone’s money (other than RUclips’s if they’ll pay me).
If for some strange reason you enjoy what I do, please consider SMASHING THAT MA’FUGEN [SUBSCRIBE] button. I don’t plan to quit anytime soon. Also, constructive criticism about how I can suck less is welcome but please keep in mind that I am a smooth-brained inbred hick and I probably won’t listen anyway.

I installed a Schrader valve one the back of my can along with some RTV sealant, has worked wonders for years.
I see an ego battery charger 👀
You replace a $50 gas can nozzle with a $30 replacement?
Um...how about stop buying crap products to begin with? Does that seem logical?
An 8 piece set for $30, which is $3.75 per replacement nozzle.
New gas cans don't come with the old style nozzles anymore in the USA, since the laws changed to force new cans to have automatic closure systems, limited venting of fumes, and child proofing back in 2009. Those systems are prone to causing issues like spills when pouring, being difficult to impossible to pour alone (needs 3 hands), failing and allowing gas to spill anyway, failing after a short time or limited number of uses, exc.
@patrickdix772 one set will retrofit 8 gas cans?

3:36 you can literally see multiple nozzles in the box.
@@mrpush2532 I put a reply, no idea why it was deleted, but yes. If you look at the box when it's opened you can see the multiple extra nozzles in it.
Adults having trouble with childproofing? Sad
