Went to a store last month and bought a few random tools recommended by PF and the guy at the cash register looks at all the stuff and then asks me "you watch Project Farm?". We both had a laugh 😂.
You have no idea how appreciated it is that you talk fast and don't make us have to sit through long monologues about things we never clicked on the video for. Great job!
When I saw how well PC-7 did with the high pressure water test it reminded me of an industrial dishwasher I repaired in 1978. A casting cracked inside the machine in the high pressure water line. It was meant to be a temporary repair. The environment is pretty harsh. It's 210 F, very caustic detergent and it runs 2 hours every day. 40 years later the machine was retired but the PC-7 was still intact. Amazing stuff and real cheap.
@@jamesfrench7299 I don't think the formula has ever changed over the years. They had a counter top display in the old days for auto parts stores that used a soda pop bottle with all kinds of different material objects glued to it. It was pretty impressive. And like any adhesives. Surface preparation is always important. I always clean the surfaces with denatured alcohol or acetone before gluing parts together.
@@ProjectFarm Now that he said that, i’m wondering how long it takes (on average) to do all your experiments. Maybe you should make a video one day that explains how you make your video’s, a tour of your garage, what you do for a living,…? Keep up the good work and stay healthy! Greetings from belgium!
Actually, the shortcoming of the testing is that it only goes to failure. It would be useful to know how long these strong materials can withstand 1/2 of the force it took to make the product fail. Like if it can hold 1000 pounds before breaking, can it hold 500 indefinitely? In my experience, epoxy rarely fails instantly. It lets go after some extended use.
@@tarstarkusz That is a valid point. I do think that most epoxy uses are temporary and not meant for long-term/"permanent" fixes. That said, perhaps Project Farm can apply a repair with a selection of the top-rated epoxies and leave the repaired piece exposed to a year's worth of elements/use and see how point of failure tests result after time has passed?
There is not, in my experience, a more enjoyable, easy to follow, well edited, well explained and expertly well done channel. Thank you so much for all you do! I'm having a great time binging all your videos and getting more impressed as I go. Again, Thank you and great job!!
Yes, it packs a lot of information into a short time. It doesn’t sidetracked into stupid stories about their favorite wrench that their grandfather will to them.
I can’t tell you the number of products I have squirreled away in a list as a direct result of these videos, and I know that they are my go to for the task at hand. I love knowing that they are the best for the task because of these videos. You’re so brilliant thank you again 🥰😍❤️👍🏻
Same here. And for those that haven't already, really consider supporting Project Farm on Patreon. Just think about how much money might have gone to waste had we needed to do our own testing.
Really cool to see J-B Weld perform so well when it's essentially the "Kleenex" brand for Epoxies. Sometimes the name leaders are far from performance leaders. Glad you always have some fun in your videos too!
I mainly use jb weld products and have always been satisfied with it. The only thing I have used this type to fix a few rub holes in the bottom side of a Lincoln Town car (full tank).
Another thing to see would be high strength plastic epoxies, I was quite happy with jb water weld on the plastic tanks of my radiator when I needed to get to work.
You are the person companies need to be afraid of. I literally search your videos for applications I'm looking to use and will buy the best based off of your testing. Thank you very much! Long time subscriber, but know, that bell is on!
I'm glad I found this channel great content. I used the JB putty epoxy and used it to fill a hole the size of a half dollar coin in a Cummins 3 cylinder diesel a couple of years ago and it's still running good to this day.
Jbweld is all I use. I use it on everything plastic, ceramic and used it on a broken handle of a lock blade knife. It is amazing stuff. Thank you. Great work
Possibly Pound for pound one of the greatest yphtubers ever. From content quality, consistency, fan interaction. To just down right awesome amazing tests! Saves me a bundle!
I ABSOLUTELY agree on this. Kind as almost no one. And is fun, too! Have you ever see his winniebagoo? It has the most unusual exhaust in the world! They can find him by the noise. Or is an anti theft device? Jahaha.. Congratulations on your GREAT work
Really glad to see JB weld did so well. Been using it for years and fixed a lot of stuff including repairing the shell of Desert Tortoise that had been hit by a car on the freeway. Put it back together and it’s still alive today.
I've always been a JB Weld fan (it's the only one I've ever tried, and I've used it to repair so many things); glad to know it holds up well against the competition, especially for the price!
I like JB Weld, too. But they’re not giving it away for free. A genuine comparison of the different brands of epoxy putty would be the holding power per dollar. Not the holding power per ounce. Anyone can manufacture very expensive epoxy putty. This fellow appears to offering a comparison, but as you may note, all the products fall within a specific price range; from expensive to very expensive. How much does equivalent epoxy putty cost per ounce in Mexico City? Or Shanghai? Probably a lot less. We need country by country price comparisons. Not just domestic price comparisons.
@@jesse75 You’re correct. Quality is the first consideration. So I agree with you. Let me ask: If an exact equivalent of JB Weld were for sale in Mexico City for 80% less, would you be happy with the higher price in America? Probably not. American workers are being asked to accept lower wages because of globalization. Therefore they should also get lower prices. But our prices are increasing very rapidly. Insulin costs twenty times as much in America as it does in Mexico, for the same product. Do you think that’s fair?
No words can justify the gratitude of viewers and your dedicated test procedures, hard work and of course cost. Brilliant man with noble cause. Thanks 🙏
@@JM-yx1lm theyre not, theyre made in usa from global components. Their factory in the usa is mostly just a warehouse where they do final assembly. Basically slap on the made in the us sticker and ship them out again
The US of A .. once a great nation.. nowadays .. a big and loud expensive assembly-factory of Chinese goods... the people are too busy fighting each other over politics.. while the rest of the world is wandering wth they're doing!
@@gsenna472 you got that right. The UK is prettybdire at the moment what with mismanagement of covid leadingbto tens ofbthousands of uneccessary death, plus Brexit muckingnup imports, exports, holidays (when we can start taking those again) but just when it feels too much we can look across the pond and see Trump stirring up as much trouble and hatred and division than our lot do, only they have guns over there! Two once proud nations going down the plughole.
WOW you actually did multiple samples per product!!! I can't even.. THANK YOU for taking the incredible time and effort to go through with all of that!! You deserve all the views, ad revenue, and all the thanks!!
I used PC-7 to fix upper level deckplate holes in one of my ships (Navy guy), along with some stainless wire mesh, (out of my own pocket). That was 2 years ago and the ship recently got back from a deployment, those makeshift patches were still keeping the water out of the people tank! I also found it very runny and not too user friendly but it held up. :) Keep up the awesome work, appreciate your time and effort, makes for informative and entertaining watching.
@@spdergod Total aside here, but you know some of these might have worked to repair a cracked sink. What about a toilet? Might have needed to sand the area to allow it to adhere better, but it might have been interesting to see how it would cope.
427 dislikes?? I don't understand how can someone dislike this video???? 17 minutes of video saves me hours in the store. You are amazing!!! Thank you!
I have been watching your videos for the last few years, as they appear on my suggested lists. But I came to realize, your editing, direct approach analysis, real world testing is spot on! I am pleased to be a new subscriber! Now, for a bit of binge watching! JB Weld has been my go to for decades! Mainly due to availability, but even with Gorilla at most home improvement stores, I stick with JB Weld. Now I actually have proven results to back up my intuition! Thank you for this great service and observations!
that amalgamation of putty and chain will be the only thing left when humanity is wiped out. had me in stitches when he kept adding them all together XD
I love how good this guy's methodology is. A lot of youtubers "test" various products but rarely do they ever really make any decent conclusions that can be trusted because the process is totally unscientific. That's fine if the main goal is comedy instead of results but it always drives me a little nuts to see most people half ass it and then act like they really found something valuable. Project farm standards are so strict sometimes they even seem excessive!
Ditto, Nic! I really appreciate his great effort to perform CONSISTENT tests on each product in video after video. Even if my real-world application is slightly different or I "dislike" the winner for some subjective reason, I cannot refute the objective conclusions of a Project Farm test.
Consumer Reports recently polled 1,000 people to find out which product testing organization they trusted the most. They were shocked to find that 999 respondents answered "Project Farm" and the 1,000th reply was from a guy living in a cave in Arizona who didn't have internet service. It's plain to see the effort and expense that you put into your videos and I am certainly grateful for the enlightenment. I've always been a big fan of JB Weld and you proved that out in your testing. Thanks once again for another outstanding video!
Great vid. I've seen PC-7 work where JB weld failed. I was sealing a leak on a boat lower unit housing, probably most similar to your pipe PSI test. Tried JB weld first and it held for a little while but then lost it's bond and came off. Tried PC-7 and it stuck. Never had a problem with it again. I've never used Numetal, which seemed pretty impressive too. One more thing I can add about PC-7 is I've had the same containers of it for like 30 years and it still works great.
Interesting, I wonder how it would hold up in contact with gasoline. I tried using JB Weld to repair a cracked gas tank and it worked great for about a week, then opened the floodgates in my garage
@FarmCraft101 I've had very mixed results from JB weld bonding to metal. For one project, identical batch of materials bonded & prepped identically, some batches of JB worked great, others peeled right off the metal with hardly a bond made. Was it the JB? maybe a factor, but I got a feeling that the mix ratio has a small window of tolerance.
I just want you to know that I have used your videos to make purchases for years. Never once have I been disappointed. I repair older ATVs and motorcycles. You have saved me so much time and money. I will be buying aluminum weld tomorrow.
JB weld is good stuff the PC stuff is alittle cheaper they are basically the same. If he used normal JBweld it would prob be equal to or better than pc 7. Pc has a whole line up and they are cheap
@@genghischuan4886 I’m talking about the normal jb weld not the putty. The one that comes in toothpaste tubes it’s basically the same as PC it think project farm used putty stick of jb weld not the normal jb weld.
I've tested a lot of epoxies over many years and by far the best is J-B Weld Steel Reinforced Epoxy with a 4-6 hour set time. As you found in your tests, the slow cure epoxies perform far better than the quick epoxies.
Are you going by the time on the package? Most confuse working time with cure time and have poor results because of this. All epoxies should cure 24 hours before experiencing any stresses
@@TingTingalingy At room temperature, J-B Weld™ sets in 4-6 hours to a dark grey color. Full cure is reached in 15-24 hours. J-B Weld™ has a tensile strength of 5020 PSI and sets to a hard bond overnight. It can withstand temperatures up to 550⁰ when fully cured.
@@TingTingalingy The packages on some of them (example Quiksteel at 6:18) directly claim on the packaging full cure in 1 hour. Project Farm let everything sit for at least 48, so it's definitely not that they didn't have time to cure. Curing being a chemical process makes sense that ones designed to go slower end up stronger, more time for longer polymer chains and stronger crosslinking between the chains.
@@TingTingalingy "MOST [...people using epoxies...] confuse working time with cure time and have poor results because of this." Are you basing this on anything, or did you just make it up? I don't doubt that there will be some subset of people that are impatient and can't be bothered to wait etc. But for you to state that MOST people are confusing those terms... is simply untrue.
@@MMAFightMagazine "is simply untrue." How could you possibly know that without sampling a population? Most people believe all sorts of silly things, like humans coming back from the dead after a day and a half, or automobiles being a good idea. It happens.
You know, it would be a great idea to have a website to list all the tested tools in the channel that won the stress tests. Like a digital seal of approval!
A lot of his tests don’t give a “approved” or “best” winner... and that’s what I like about his channel he gives us the info and let’s us decide what the best value is.
PF, you have become THE source of honest product evaluation for me. I cannot overstate how impressed I am with the exhaustive effort you make to test different brands of products on a level playing field, while not succumbing to personal bias, as so many others on RUclips. You give me hope for humanity.
one of your interesting and concise comparisons. You literally happen to be the official non-official consumer/commercial Reports when it comes to products (for me anyway). THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THE CONSISTANT WORK.
Wow!!! Great series of tests. I've always been a JB Weld fan, and it's good to see that my positive experiences with their products have been echoed by your tests. Very nice work!
The evolution of watching Project Farm videos: Phase 1: Search for a project review, fast forward to the comparison table. Phase 2: Search for a project review, watch the entire video. Phase 3: Watch the entire review for projects that pop up in your recommendations that you might buy at some point. Phase 4: Watch the entire review for every video as they come out, regardless of potential need for the product. Phase 5: High five yourself when he reviews products that you requested, regardless of the probability that several of his 1.5M followers requested it too.
Just amazing to see what ways of standardized testing you find for basically everything! You answer questions I never knew I needed answered but afterwards I reconsider my purchase decisions based on what I need roughly according to your testing results! Great work, keep it up!
Would love to see you do a test of garden hose spray nozzles. I feel like no matter how much money I spend, they’re always failing and failing quickly. Testing higher pressures, freezing, etc would be awesome.
@@jjohnston94 true, but harbor freight has consistent offerings as do the name brand options at big box stores. Maybe a couple well reviewed ones from amazon as well?
I use nozzles at my work place and never had them last very long. We have more pressure then a typical home but we also use them for hot water (110-140f) and the longest lasting so far are Walmart garden thumb industrial nozzle. It usually has a blue or orange rubber coated handle around a metal nozzle. They have lasted months vs weeks.
@@ProjectFarm and just hoses in general! Spring will be here before you know it. One test: how long it takes to roll up/store a hose recently full of water.
There’s a chemist somewhere going mad, yelling: “He’s making an abomination mixing those together!” Another great video sir!!! How is it that you don’t have like 5 million subscribers yet 🤷🏼♂️
@@kris856 he'll be testing a lot of stuff between now and then. I could just see companies sending him samples from every one of their competitors, and their own, but anonymously. If anyone can come up with real world tests, Project Farm can! BTW, I stumbled across two different vintage unopened ATF cans, the kind you need the old push-in spout. I just need to know where to send them!
Thanks so much for doing these tests. I'm fixing a rare carburettor from a classic car and the only way I can think of to fix it is with a putty like this. Not only has this video proven to me that epoxy putty is a strong enough material to use in such a critical application, but it's also steered me towards the pick of the bunch (JB Weld, which luckily for me is available in Australia, unlike almost all of the others). This is now the third time one of your videos has provided the otherwise unavailable real-world proof that's allowed me to proceed with a certain engineering solution. These videos are so invaluable.
Just my 2 cents, with a broken chain you can also use a hardened steel bolt, nut and a handful of fairly large hardened washers to temporarily mend a broken chain. Thank you for the video. I have a whole new respect for JB Weld.
I've been a Pisten Bully mechanic at one of North America's largest ski resorts for 28 years. Sometimes operators will rip most or all of the belts on a track. We chain the tracks together using bolts to connect loops of chain, then drive the cats back to the shop to replace the belts.
if you watch these it takes no time to like it. think about the effort and time it takes to make just one of these videos. give the man the credit he deserves
Looking at the thumbnail, i was like “this must be a clickbait video”. Nope, as always, this guy is truthful and very informative. Thank you for your hard work and dedication!
This man has been so damn helpful in so many situations now since I started watching. hidden gem of youtube! Thanks project farm love the thorough scientific testing at a multiple price point analysis of all these products. You put in work and it shows keep it up!
And his videos are chock full of info! No having to step through some body showing their engine or blah blah about how they went down to the store and couldnt decide what to buy so they ended up getting X product and lets see how it works because his second cousin's brother's friend said it was something to buy. Nope, every moment he is talking is good info.
Timestamps for the graphs with final results: Tensile Strength 8:32 , Compressive Strength 10:16 , Pipe Leak 13:13 Winner: J-B Weld 8267 SteelStik (~$5 per 2oz at Walmart), although it depends on your application purpose.
That was some GREAT testing! Fun to watch. I've been a QC Manager most of my life and these tests along with your other videos are truly impressive. I used the JB Weld product in your video to repair the front of my aluminum boat 10+ years ago. The anchor would bump and rub the front interior at the V while in transit, and rubbed a hole in it, I think the repair is stronger than the aluminum the boat is made of. It's also completely water proof.
Could you imagine, they roll up on the carnage behind his shop. Parts of exploded test failures in piles. Some of the lawn mowers still partially alive 🤣
Me “I’m stuck in the mud and my chain broke” My buddy “hole on let me get my 10lbs stash of epoxy” Lol that was really funny how you kept adding more, you really should test that chain out, I would like to see that
"alright, i got a giant wad of Epoxynstein globbed onto this chain" ('alright! pull me out!!') "nah, not yet, we need to come back tomorrow..." ('but my Jeep is sinking!') "...and the Epoxy is Curing! we'll dredge er out after the weekend..."
In my 12 years of watching RUclips I never had a desire to subscribe to a channel. Therefore I never have...until today. My first subscription ever. Love the videos PF. I hope you enjoy making these videos as much as I enjoy watching them
And just like that you've gained another subscriber! How could I have missed your channel is beyond me, but I'm glad I found it. Thank you for all the grueling hours and painstaking preparations that go into your tests. Now please excuse my departure in order to seek out a few more of your presentations. Unbelievably comprehensive work!
Another great test. Thank you. I've been using JB Weld exclusively ever since my Dad showed it to me in the late '70s. I keep it on hand in my shop and my son now uses it too.
I have used PC7 to repair gouges in a 2 cycle 35 hp outboard engines cylinder wall.... cleaned with acetone, piston at the back, masking tape around the damage. Applied the PC7, waited 48 hours to be sure it cured properly. Then with the flywheel slowly moved the piston back and fourth letting the rings to cut the PC7 even with the cylunder wall. It worked great and has held up for many years now. Great stuff!
@@ProjectFarm FWIW, there is usually a mil-spec for most of these products. As well as testing the most popular brands, may I suggest you look up lesser-known brands (i.e. have a smaller marketing budget) that meet that mil-spec? For example, Devcon makes a steel putty (Plastic Steel) that meets or exceeds MIL-PRF-24176C.
It seemed like you really had fun doing that chain repair test and I was happy to see you enjoying yourself since you clearly put a lot of hard work into all of these amazing review videos for us, you truly are the best at comparing products like these, keep up the good work, and thank you so much!
Your work to observe outcome is outstanding. The detail you put into establishing testing standards should be noted by the self-proclaimed pros, for them to learn from. Way to go!
I appreciate you tapping those threads with hand tools. More and more I see and notice people who fail to realize the importance of doing so. (I appreciate the videos altogether, very good testing methods and helpful to know what’s worth the money.)
This is OUTSTANDING WORK.... The sheer volume of man hours this CLEARLY took to not only perform the tests, but then EDIT ALL FOOTAGE (which I’m sure took 10x longer!) in such an EXPERT, STUDIO LEVEL, FLUID manner makes this video TOP NOTCH. Not to mention the amount of educational value (trial & error & MONEY saved for any viewers)... Excellence. The “chain repair” massive materials WASTE was a bit weird and I’m certain could’ve been put to much better use (like future projects or giveaways to people who don’t even have a job let alone the great fortune to purchase all this stuff just to toss it out), but whatever! This was so impressive that it doesn’t matter. I’m a JB WELD user, and have crafted the most unusual repairs from it that have never failed, but I think Hercules (a product I’ve never even HEARD OF until now) gets added to my lineup next.. The JB WELD is a small quantity and i like that Hercules seemed to be much more material in one purchase while edging out JB. THANKS!
@@ProjectFarm AND he makes time to read comments???? Im floored man.. I wish id found you sooner but im on here with specific purpose all day every day (extremely familiar w/ YT rules & algo behaviors from working with numerous large channels) and I guess I notice things only a creator would... makes me a harsh critic, but also one who can easily spot a channels flaws & edges up... YOU my friend, have a gift for this. I sincerely wish I could’ve worked with you behind the scenes a bit to understand your flow and how you do it all... Again... OUT....STANDING. Feel free to drop a line if you’d like @ protonmail d0t C0m by just adding this (my) YT handle to the front! 😆 God SPEED my man.
Yes! My biggest gripe with those gloves are, tearing at the collar when pulling them on, and the finger tips rip while hand tightening a bolt. Would love to know who wins that test. 👍
@@RedfishCarolina Nitrile doesn't like acetone, MEK, or toluene very much. No brand or thickness will hold up to some chemicals. Long exposure to those needs a different glove material for proper protection.
Yesssssss! I need to know this for small repairs around the shop! Especially when I need to restore a threaded hole that's been damaged, or fill a crack in an old tool.
Great video and methodology! I have been using the original JB Weld for many years and it is an excellent product. I have not tried the variant used in the video but it worked well too. Several years ago, I fixed a stamped blower housing with a cracked bolt hole on a Briggs and Stratton 5HP engine. I sanded both sides down to bare metal, mixed the JB Weld and "glued" steel flat washers on both sides. The repair was very strong and has been durable. I have also fixed leaking gutters with JB Weld and again... fantastic results. Thanks for an excellent video and unbiased testing! 😊👍
None of these tests have really direct applications to real world usage, but I love that you can extrapolate the data to figure out which products work better for which applications. Excellent work as always Todd!
Thanks so much for taking the time to put together controlled tests to simulate real world applications. Your editing and presentation efficiency is truly exceptional!
No Milliiput? I find that odd because it is the leading brand in Britain, and I know that it is used in the USA because so many of the model makers there use it. Very cheap, very strong, but takes a long time to cure.
I’ve tested both Jb-weld steelstik and Milliput medium-fine black when I used them to make some customized grips for my recurve bow. The milliput is not as hard as the steelstik once cured, and doesn’t seem to be as strong. The milliput has a much longer set time, which is perfect for model making, as it gives you enough time to get the shape just right, but that works against it for repair purposes.

Your ability to conceive of sound testing methods never fails to astound.
Thanks!
@@ProjectFarm How do you do that? What is your background?
Actually, the shortcoming of the testing is that it only goes to failure. It would be useful to know how long these strong materials can withstand 1/2 of the force it took to make the product fail. Like if it can hold 1000 pounds before breaking, can it hold 500 indefinitely?

@John Flower I like ur idea!
@@tarstarkusz That is a valid point. I do think that most epoxy uses are temporary and not meant for long-term/"permanent" fixes. That said, perhaps Project Farm can apply a repair with a selection of the top-rated epoxies and leave the repaired piece exposed to a year's worth of elements/use and see how point of failure tests result after time has passed?
It warms my heart that JB did so well. Legendary for a reason.
Thanks for sharing.
Great American brand that my grandfather introduced me to. I agree - warms my heart they're not sellouts to Chinese manufacturing or anything.
I was relieved, I have been using it since the 80's
repaired the aluminum fuel tanks on my semi truck with JB Weld... 2 years later, still holding strong.
Used JB Weld to patch a small engine block 10 years ago, still holding.

Yeah, i've used JB products for a long time, and i've always been satisfied with them - nice to see they're among the best.
I mainly use jb weld products and have always been satisfied with it. The only thing I have used this type to fix a few rub holes in the bottom side of a Lincoln Town car (full tank).
JB Weld always performs well in his tests, and as a result that’s what I buy.
Another thing to see would be high strength plastic epoxies, I was quite happy with jb water weld on the plastic tanks of my radiator when I needed to get to work.

You are very welcome!
I'm glad I found this channel great content. I used the JB putty epoxy and used it to fill a hole the size of a half dollar coin in a Cummins 3 cylinder diesel a couple of years ago and it's still running good to this day.
Impressive!
That big of hole you might have gotten away with rounding and soft plugging. They come in a lot of different sizes now.
Jbweld is all I use. I use it on everything plastic, ceramic and used it on a broken handle of a lock blade knife. It is amazing stuff. Thank you. Great work
“This thing is probably stronger than the chain”
I think you should test that

Really glad to see JB weld did so well. Been using it for years and fixed a lot of stuff including repairing the shell of Desert Tortoise that had been hit by a car on the freeway. Put it back together and it’s still alive today.
Agree, I just used some yesterday to fix the fan in a Shop Vac. I've never used the putty but it sure is cheaper and probably easy to find.
I've always been a JB Weld fan (it's the only one I've ever tried, and I've used it to repair so many things); glad to know it holds up well against the competition, especially for the price!
Thanks for the feedback.
I like JB Weld, too. But they’re not giving it away for free.
A genuine comparison of the different brands of epoxy putty would be the holding power per dollar. Not the holding power per ounce. Anyone can manufacture very expensive epoxy putty. This fellow appears to offering a comparison, but as you may note, all the products fall within a specific price range; from expensive to very expensive.
How much does equivalent epoxy putty cost per ounce in Mexico City? Or Shanghai? Probably a lot less. We need country by country price comparisons. Not just domestic price comparisons.
@@ronliebermann most of us don't care the price. Just how good it is.
@@jesse75 You’re correct. Quality is the first consideration. So I agree with you.
Let me ask: If an exact equivalent of JB Weld were for sale in Mexico City for 80% less, would you be happy with the higher price in America? Probably not. American workers are being asked to accept lower wages because of globalization. Therefore they should also get lower prices.
But our prices are increasing very rapidly. Insulin costs twenty times as much in America as it does in Mexico, for the same product.
Do you think that’s fair?
@@ronliebermann my dentist is in the Philippines.
Capitalism is nothing more than an excuse to stick it to us.
Agree with you on that one my friend.
No words can justify the gratitude of viewers and your dedicated test procedures, hard work and of course cost. Brilliant man with noble cause. Thanks 🙏

I love how good this guy's methodology is. A lot of youtubers "test" various products but rarely do they ever really make any decent conclusions that can be trusted because the process is totally unscientific. That's fine if the main goal is comedy instead of results but it always drives me a little nuts to see most people half ass it and then act like they really found something valuable. Project farm standards are so strict sometimes they even seem excessive!
Ditto, Nic! I really appreciate his great effort to perform CONSISTENT tests on each product in video after video. Even if my real-world application is slightly different or I "dislike" the winner for some subjective reason, I cannot refute the objective conclusions of a Project Farm test.
Agreed...I like his methods
Let me introduce you to CNC kitchen
Consumer Reports recently polled 1,000 people to find out which product testing organization they trusted the most. They were shocked to find that 999 respondents answered "Project Farm" and the 1,000th reply was from a guy living in a cave in Arizona who didn't have internet service. It's plain to see the effort and expense that you put into your videos and I am certainly grateful for the enlightenment. I've always been a big fan of JB Weld and you proved that out in your testing. Thanks once again for another outstanding video!
Link?
@@FiveSixEP Pretty sure it was a joke.
lol You are welcome!
We in Sulfer Springs Texas are very proud of JB Weld , they are a good employer and charitable company.
Thanks for sharing.
Great vid. I've seen PC-7 work where JB weld failed. I was sealing a leak on a boat lower unit housing, probably most similar to your pipe PSI test. Tried JB weld first and it held for a little while but then lost it's bond and came off. Tried PC-7 and it stuck. Never had a problem with it again. I've never used Numetal, which seemed pretty impressive too. One more thing I can add about PC-7 is I've had the same containers of it for like 30 years and it still works great.
Thank you!
Interesting, I wonder how it would hold up in contact with gasoline. I tried using JB Weld to repair a cracked gas tank and it worked great for about a week, then opened the floodgates in my garage
Thanks for letting us know about the PC7 longevity. I've used it quite a bit but always wonder how long the uncured material will last.
@@oledcrt Gas tank? That probably is a tough one for any epoxy.
@FarmCraft101 I've had very mixed results from JB weld bonding to metal. For one project, identical batch of materials bonded & prepped identically, some batches of JB worked great, others peeled right off the metal with hardly a bond made. Was it the JB? maybe a factor, but I got a feeling that the mix ratio has a small window of tolerance.
"Were gonna test that" never gets old thank you for educating all of us on what the best products are.
You are welcome!

@@PeteyMcSavage but to say they are basically the same, nope the difference was pretty huge

I've tested a lot of epoxies over many years and by far the best is J-B Weld Steel Reinforced Epoxy with a 4-6 hour set time. As you found in your tests, the slow cure epoxies perform far better than the quick epoxies.
Are you going by the time on the package? Most confuse working time with cure time and have poor results because of this.
All epoxies should cure 24 hours before experiencing any stresses
@@TingTingalingy At room temperature, J-B Weld™ sets in 4-6 hours to a dark grey color. Full cure is reached in 15-24 hours. J-B Weld™ has a tensile strength of 5020 PSI and sets to a hard bond overnight. It can withstand temperatures up to 550⁰ when fully cured.
@@TingTingalingy The packages on some of them (example Quiksteel at 6:18) directly claim on the packaging full cure in 1 hour. Project Farm let everything sit for at least 48, so it's definitely not that they didn't have time to cure. Curing being a chemical process makes sense that ones designed to go slower end up stronger, more time for longer polymer chains and stronger crosslinking between the chains.
@@TingTingalingy
"MOST [...people using epoxies...] confuse working time with cure time and have poor results because of this."
Are you basing this on anything, or did you just make it up?
I don't doubt that there will be some subset of people that are impatient and can't be bothered to wait etc.
But for you to state that MOST people are confusing those terms...
is simply untrue.
@@MMAFightMagazine "is simply untrue." How could you possibly know that without sampling a population? Most people believe all sorts of silly things, like humans coming back from the dead after a day and a half, or automobiles being a good idea. It happens.
When are we going to see ‘Project Farm Approved’ labels on these items in the shops? It would help me with my buying decisions !

Like a digital seal of approval!

A website would be great, a new reliable online version of consumer reports if you remember that magazine.

I cannot overstate how impressed I am with the exhaustive effort you make to test different brands of products on a level playing field, while not succumbing to personal bias, as so many others on RUclips. You give me hope for humanity.
Thanks so much!

Thank you!
Yes!! You did my suggestion from nearly two years ago. That must be one back log of requests! Thanks so much for doing this one, really top quality!
You are so welcome!
The evolution of watching Project Farm videos:
Phase 1: Search for a project review, fast forward to the comparison table.
Phase 2: Search for a project review, watch the entire video.
Phase 3: Watch the entire review for projects that pop up in your recommendations that you might buy at some point.
Phase 4: Watch the entire review for every video as they come out, regardless of potential need for the product.
Phase 5: High five yourself when he reviews products that you requested, regardless of the probability that several of his 1.5M followers requested it too.
Thanks for watching. Good Point!
Just amazing to see what ways of standardized testing you find for basically everything!
You answer questions I never knew I needed answered but afterwards I reconsider my purchase decisions based on what I need roughly according to your testing results!
Great work, keep it up!
Thanks, will do!
Would love to see you do a test of garden hose spray nozzles. I feel like no matter how much money I spend, they’re always failing and failing quickly. Testing higher pressures, freezing, etc would be awesome.
Good idea, except there's always a billion cheap brands, and you'll probably never see the same one twice.
@@jjohnston94 true, but harbor freight has consistent offerings as do the name brand options at big box stores. Maybe a couple well reviewed ones from amazon as well?
I use nozzles at my work place and never had them last very long. We have more pressure then a typical home but we also use them for hot water (110-140f) and the longest lasting so far are Walmart garden thumb industrial nozzle. It usually has a blue or orange rubber coated handle around a metal nozzle. They have lasted months vs weeks.

Thanks so much for doing these tests. I'm fixing a rare carburettor from a classic car and the only way I can think of to fix it is with a putty like this. Not only has this video proven to me that epoxy putty is a strong enough material to use in such a critical application, but it's also steered me towards the pick of the bunch (JB Weld, which luckily for me is available in Australia, unlike almost all of the others). This is now the third time one of your videos has provided the otherwise unavailable real-world proof that's allowed me to proceed with a certain engineering solution. These videos are so invaluable.
Thanks and you are welcome! Thanks for sharing.
Just my 2 cents, with a broken chain you can also use a hardened steel bolt, nut and a handful of fairly large hardened washers to temporarily mend a broken chain.
Thank you for the video. I have a whole new respect for JB Weld.
I had a big track loader that would eat 3/8" logging chains as snacks. The links always stretched and broke but bolted together links never failed.
jb wins for sure cause its 5 bucks
I've been a Pisten Bully mechanic at one of North America's largest ski resorts for 28 years. Sometimes operators will rip most or all of the belts on a track. We chain the tracks together using bolts to connect loops of chain, then drive the cats back to the shop to replace the belts.

That was some GREAT testing! Fun to watch. I've been a QC Manager most of my life and these tests along with your other videos are truly impressive. I used the JB Weld product in your video to repair the front of my aluminum boat 10+ years ago.

It's also completely water proof.

This is OUTSTANDING WORK.... The sheer volume of man hours this CLEARLY took to not only perform the tests, but then EDIT ALL FOOTAGE (which I’m sure took 10x longer!) in such an EXPERT, STUDIO LEVEL, FLUID manner makes this video TOP NOTCH. Not to mention the amount of educational value (trial & error & MONEY saved for any viewers)... Excellence.
The “chain repair” massive materials WASTE was a bit weird and I’m certain could’ve been put to much better use (like future projects or giveaways to people who don’t even have a job let alone the great fortune to purchase all this stuff just to toss it out), but whatever! This was so impressive that it doesn’t matter.
I’m a JB WELD user, and have crafted the most unusual repairs from it that have never failed, but I think Hercules (a product I’ve never even HEARD OF until now) gets added to my lineup next.. The JB WELD is a small quantity and i like that Hercules seemed to be much more material in one purchase while edging out JB.

The 5 mil Harbor Freights don't rip but they've gotten pricey lately since covid.
@@RedfishCarolina Nitrile doesn't like acetone, MEK, or toluene very much. No brand or thickness will hold up to some chemicals. Long exposure to those needs a different glove material for proper protection.
Project Farm is amazing. I'm really impressed on how comprehensive and thorough the reviews are.
Thanks!
Yesssssss! I need to know this for small repairs around the shop! Especially when I need to restore a threaded hole that's been damaged, or fill a crack in an old tool.
Thank you!
I legitimately love your videos so so much. You are among the handful of RUclipsrs that still make actual quality content. Please, never change.
Thanks.
Great video and methodology! I have been using the original JB Weld for many years and it is an excellent product. I have not tried the variant used in the video but it worked well too. Several years ago, I fixed a stamped blower housing with a cracked bolt hole on a Briggs and Stratton 5HP engine. I sanded both sides down to bare metal, mixed the JB Weld and "glued" steel flat washers on both sides. The repair was very strong and has been durable. I have also fixed leaking gutters with JB Weld and again... fantastic results. Thanks for an excellent video and unbiased testing! 😊👍
None of these tests have really direct applications to real world usage, but I love that you can extrapolate the data to figure out which products work better for which applications. Excellent work as always Todd!
Thanks!
The engine repair is not a direct world repair?
Not the real world ? Shows which ones are the best ! pretty much real world.
Thanks so much for taking the time to put together controlled tests to simulate real world applications. Your editing and presentation efficiency is truly exceptional!
Thank you very much!
No Milliiput? I find that odd because it is the leading brand in Britain, and I know that it is used in the USA because so many of the model makers there use it. Very cheap, very strong, but takes a long time to cure.
Thanks for the video idea.
@@ProjectFarm Can also be difficult to mix, if it isn't fresh.
Holy crap its Lindy!
Interesting seeing you here, and no you cant make armor with it!
I’ve tested both Jb-weld steelstik and Milliput medium-fine black when I used them to make some customized grips for my recurve bow.
The milliput is not as hard as the steelstik once cured, and doesn’t seem to be as strong.
The milliput has a much longer set time, which is perfect for model making, as it gives you enough time to get the shape just right, but that works against it for repair purposes.
I've personally used JBWeld SteelStik on several repairs around the house and it has always held up really well, especially considering the price.
Thanks for the feedback.
