Hell yeah man that's why we love your videos, it's the RUclips equivalent of sitting round in the shop/bar and shooting the shit, occasionally learning stuff, and having a laugh along the way.
We definitely appreciate you & your time. I appreciate all of your work, reviews or poking fun at the moronic attempts to sell the magic pliers among others. The sarcastic comments & bluntness pointing out the bullshit they try to sell are my favorite. Thank you!
your videos are either entertaining or educational- this was definitely both. looking forward to future videos and thank you for taking the time to film. greetings from Austria.
100% , Funk FPV rocks!!
Pretty sure I binged all the shorts in a day or two... every video is hilarious
Austria?! G'Day, Mate! Let's throw another shrimp on the barbie!
@@Mr.NiceGuy80
What? my english is not good enough for me to understand this. what is/means G-day and shrimp on barbie...?
@@TheCrepusculum It's a joke from a movie called Dumb and Dumber. Jim Carrey is a limousine driver. A lady gets in his limousine, she tells him she's from Austria and he started speaking to her in an Australian accent.
Those magnet umbrellas are a lifesaver for hvac techs. Absolutely worth it!
It’s seems expensive till you’re working outside in July 😜
@@FunkFPV pipeline welders have had those type of umbrellas for years. If your turns inside out and breaks, for almost the same money you can get one about 7’ diameter that’s damn near wind proof.
@@trevorjarvis3050 Used something like that when working inside tractor cabs for extended periods. With glass all around and machine not running gets miserable. That and electric screwdriver for dash hardware.
No idea why, but I would watch your videos for hours. I like your sense of humor, and I appreciate that you don’t pretend to be something you’re not. Good on you brother.
You've definitely created a niche community here with your videos, so glad I've stumbled across your channel however long ago. Always enjoy your content
There are more engineering channels if you like a laugh. This Old Tony is lighter. AVE is more hard core. EEVBlog, John Cadogan and Thunderf00t are more detailed.
@@philscott7949 I watch pretty much all those guys as well lol
I third this
As a Lifelong mechanic/welder I enjoy your reviews , keep up the good work.
Brilliant, genuine, funny. Difficult to beat the authenticity and entertainment of your channel. Keep going, you’re great.
I'm basically mechanically illiterate, and have been fumbling through some really basic stuff after becoming a homeowner. Found your vids randomly, and even the really pithy take-down shorts provided a lot of insight into things I knew little about. Really appreciate all the content, and hope it's as fun to make as it is to watch. Cheers.
Nearing ½M subs, you should be proud. You’ve built trust with the no BS approach. Don’t be a schill for the sponsorships and we’ll keep getting in the van!
Being a woodworker, it's occasionally nice to find things that I could make from reclaimed / scrap wood. That steering wheel desk would be a good choice for project for me so, thank you very kindly for showing it to me. I guarantee you my work will cost more than that plastic thing though LOL
Haha I bet it will and it should 😁
In a crazy world it’s a sense of normalcy for me to watch a video by a what seems to be a normal person. It’s relaxing to say the least. Thank you
Never say something like the magnetic umbrella is silly and/or over priced. In Texas at the place I work, our Crown guy is constantly sweating his nuts off because there's no shade. He'd kill for one of those. Thanks for your honesty, feedback, and content, I love it!
I fully support the umbrella. Especially in stationary outdoor work it's perfect. Basically made for you. Unfortunate I don't stay on the move for the most part but I can still catch some shade on the dark side of the trailer.
Love your videos!!
When I saw the one where you showed the collapsible stool I went to Amazon to buy it but it was out of stock. Saw it on this one and immediately went and bought it!!
Also got the umbrella (I'm a field tech in the wireless industry) and the emergency lights!! Many thanks!! There ya go!!
Those things sold out in 3 hours when I posted that. If I was smart I’d start selling them out of my house 😁
@@FunkFPV Yeah, you could gave a new side hustle!! If you're like me, I've got plenty to do already!!🤣
I appreciate you too Funk, you make my days suck just a little bit less. Much love and sucess in '23 brother!
Awesome video, thanks for the shares! I think I'm definitely going for that chair/stool, I'm 26 but I'm sick of squatting all the time and having my feet/toes go numb. Moreover I like that it's really compact! Easier to carry than a folding chair 👍🏼
Hvac tech here and Can confirm the magnetic umbrella is expensive but soooo worth it both in the sun and rain nothing worse than being stuck roasting alive or soaking wet trying to work
Funk FPV - The great unforker of forked forklifts! I wish you a prosperous 2023!
I zip tied a magnet to an umbrella for vending machine calls in the rain. I only need it a couple times a year, but man, it's handy
'And now your crying cause your whoppers dirty' xD your brilliant mate, don't stop!
7:17 that’s a pretty funny silhouette. “here’s how you make the big bucks”
Now I'm torn between what I like more about your channel, is it the roasting of crappy designs/ diwhys/ horrible demonstrations or the informative and helpful tools/ tricks? I love them both and hope you continue finding kewl and cringy stuff to make videos about, here's to a great 2023 🍻
“Im shocked they can predict the sunrise”😂😂
There’s also these rechargeable LED work lights on Amazon. They fold up, have a hanging hook, magnetic base, 3 white light modes and 2 emergency red modes. Very good for when I have a blowout and it’s still dark.
I bought that stool a while ago and love it. Way stronger than I thought. It catches people's attention anytime I pull it out.
A collapsible stool and a 2 inch foam knee pad are game changers and worth every penny. It is a little more comfortable, but most importantly it helps keep my pant legs and ass dry when the ground is wet. Nothing worse than having to work while kneeling in 1 to 2 inches of water.
Thank you for the insight Funk! I love watching your shorts, so it’s nice seeing you do a longer video. More Funk is great!
What makes me like your videos is that I feel like you're talking to one of your colleagues and not selling shit. Keep it up man
You are a fucking gem [of a] RUclips'er... An O.J. Simpson joke, mixed in with honest-to-God reviews--all given/told by a road mechanic, who downplays his expertise & legitimacy. You are the definition of humble; keep it up.
I've got the Amazon equivalent of that tool holder, but mine has magnets so I can stick it on the side of my garage fridge. Keeps the power tools out of the way and gives me an excuse to grab a beer when I grab one of them. 🤣
I discovered you through TikTok, bin watching a lot of your videos lately... I worked for PIRTEK as an Hydraulic Service Technician, for Hoses and stuff... i really like your way of working, and you really struck me with your words "If you make your life 1% better per day..." that's really nice. And if envy your bigass umbrella... could've really safe me some hardcore headaches the last summers...
Greetings from Augsburg, Germany!
I ashamed to say I recommend PIRTEK for hoses I don’t want to do 😁 You guys always do a good job and I’m too busy
@@FunkFPV hahaha always the same! We show Up when there is Hoses to do, which nobody wants to do. Was often times the case. But fairly i gotta say it's far more easy when you've had those really complicated built in hoses... When you've done it a couple of times it gets easier. I remember when i started at this company and had nothing to do with hydraulic hoses before, standing infront of a big liebherr 300 ton truck-crane, looking at 80 hoses all together and needed to find the leaking one. Saying to myself "how the fuck will i ever be able to find the leaking hose and put it all Back together after i dissasembled it"
But time amd continuity gets you where you wanna be!
"Gigantic shop bulls*** sessions" is such a perfect description hahaha. Thanks for creating the space for us to talk BS lol
Happy New Year! I'm so glad that I found this channel this year, there is so much great content to watch. Keep up the great work!
Thanks bud. Happy New Year to you
That Umbrella is a great addition for my car watching the indycar races. I'll be adding this to my trunk.
I love how unrefined these are, a breath of fresh air
Love your videos or vlog wtf ever they call them. spent 22 years as a auto mech. Now build industrial shredders. So your sense of humor fits perfect into my shop mentality. Oh and order one of those stools al the other guys have those crappy little roll around stool/chair things that take up a ton of room when not in use. love it
The warehouse I work in, the cleaning crew use those orange flashing light to stick on the ends of the isles so the operators know to be watching carefully for people on foot. Pretty useful imo.
That collapsible stool looks awesome for work and to put in my kayak for shore breaks!
'Getting the sun off you It makes the difference of like night and day'... "Uuuummm... Do You want to tell him? or... should I?"😂
I ended up getting the stool as a gift. I added it to my list after seeing your video. I haven't used it much but I wish I had one when one of my kids was in soccer. I'm sure it will see a lot of use.
White collar worker here, been a blue collar mechanic (shade tree style) and DIYer for 30 years. I love to build and fix shit, not much I'm intimidated by. Love the genuine content. looking forward to 2023 releases.
“Half an inch is sometimes the difference to get the job done.”
Amen to that 😂
I like the umbrella, I work on a ship. Spent 3 weeks being boiled alive in my coveralls while working in Saudi arabia. Plenty of metal to stick it to. Great idea! Altho wind might be a problem.
Btw I’ve never seen a grown man defend his choice of an overpriced umbrella like that! 😂 but I get it. Everyone who works outside gets it 😂
LOL... I just made that OJ reference Yesterday! Thank you for making me not feel so old!
You'd make a billion selling those umbrella in the UK. It rains here constantly apart from a Tuesday and Thursday second week in August. I'm going to ebay to look for a steering wheel table. Great gifts too! Keep up the gen X BS free banter!
Love the tool videos! especially love the tool long form videos. really helps me build the tools i want
That collapsible seat thing is THE FUTURE lol. What a cool design
Dude you are hilarious and informative. I've been turning wrenches on cars for almost 20 years and I can learn from you. Your experience shows sir. Love the content. The tool reviews, the shorts, the work vlogs. I love that you have that variety.
On a sidenote I should be starting as a forklift tech in the next few weeks.
Nice 👍🏻 You’ll love it.
@@FunkFPV I know it! My brothers been doing it for 5 years and got me hired on. Turning wrenches is in our blood.
Wow, I am an RC guy from way back flying FPV now, but didnt find your channel till you were doing tool reviews/making fun of them.
Subscribed right away as you are quite entertaining.
Just now looked back at your FPV vids, you put me to shame with your skills. Super cool.
Cheers from Canada!!!!!
Thanks 😊 I’m going to try to get more flying in this year.
@@FunkFPV Me too!! see ya in the ditch, lol.
I've watched a ton of "Top tools/gadgets/must-haves" videos and this has been one of the only ones to actually surprise me with some killer recommendations! That umbrella, the stool, and those line stoppers are all fantastic quality of life upgrades that I would have never thought of. The umbrella and stool would be amazing for a day at the junkyard too! Great video man!
I love my stool! It’s still holding up strong. Thanks for turning me on to them, they are much stronger then they look.
The way he described the fallen whopper was to detailed 😆 it was personal 🤣
“Getting the sun off you makes the difference between night and day.” Haha, I am easily amused.
Small world it truly is. I work for ToyotaLift Northeast down in Phoenixvillie PA. our Dispacher, Ryan, seen the Temco jack I bought since you reviewed it. The conversation went on for a little bit, and he says that you work for the same company, just a different branch.
Your the best brother! Happy 2023, looking forward to all your shenanigan's this year!!
That umbrella is dope af. Don't be out there pulling ppl over with your safety light 😂😂
Always look forward for your longer format videos. Keep'm coming. Even if your short are hysterical
I do HVAC and when working outside the umbrella is a must have. Mostly use mine to keep the sun from turning me to a crispy critter but also great if its raining of course
I got the 1/2” version Dcf921 and it’s really nice to have all that power in a small package with big sockets hanging off the front. I also got the new dcf850 and did the 3/8 anvil mod and that is so good it’s unreal. 70% of the power of its bigger brother while being an entire inch shorter.
I watch Ashens present on an old brown couch. So watching you in a white van is just normal to me.
That tray and stool both went right into my Amazon cart. Great things to have in the car. I’ve got these cheapo three legged camp stools I got from Cabela’s for 15 bucks apiece but I appreciate that that stool can go much higher, plus it packs smaller
Hahahaha the Uncle BumbleFuck references made me proud
Enjoy your new year sir. Thank you for the amazing content.
Hey man, thanks for the video and all the other ones too!
just a tip I picked up along the way, when doing brake lines or wheel cylinders if you car depress the brake pedal just a small amount and hold it there with a screw driver against the seat or something the fluid doesn't drip out when the pipe is off. I have found this very handy! No fluid coming out as you are trying to screw the union back on. Definitely easier to start on the right thread when nothing is dripping out and you aren't rushing. Keep up the good work, I enjoy watching your videos! Cheers from a Scotsman in NZ
Thanks for the entertaining and informative content! Hope everyone who sees this had a great year in 2022, and has an even better year in 2023.
Love how genuine you are man. Love your videos.
I Just started working for TMHNC! I appreciate the tool tip videos and advice u been spreading on your page!
First thing I gotta say. First thing. I caught that extension seat the moment you shared it. I swear it was ordered less then a minute of seeing it. I paused your video went to link then said order and came right back to finish watching.. I work on my motorcycles a lot. I use that seat almost every time I'm tinkering and OMFG it's a life knee and back saverX1000. Thank you for sharing.
I'm wrapping up 2023 here in the future. I had no idea about those plugs for lines. I have an 8.3 Cummins town down inframe. Just ordered a set of these and will be replacing my painters tape plugs on my fuel lines.
Good job dude. I like your videos. Keep it up and have a great new year. 👍
Love your videos, keep them coming. You've given me some great ideas for my work van as well as some great laughs from the shorts.
I definitely enjoy your videos.
I have learned from your videos.
Thank you and please keep up the great work.
Have a great day and be safe everyone.
It must be DANGEROUS having your whopper balanced on your knee when your working with power tools.
Great channel!
Just the video I need since I just started full time as a tractor technician.👌
I've got some outdoorsmen in my family that are getting collapsible stools for Christmas this year.
Ten months later I finally got to watch this video. I really appreciate your videos. Great Job on them.
…I would still eat the whopper…
If you haven’t seen already - that stool sells a cushion that keys into those two holes on top. Makes it much more comfortable to use.
Thanks for posting
I actually just saw that when I got the link for this video. I might have to pick one up.
Awesome video. Thanks for sharing. Lots of neat tools I’ll have to look into!
Love your vids, found you on the tik. Very educational, I love seeing the reviews. Keep keeping on man.
Not only do I love your videos, we watch them in the shop at work😂
Jack of all trades master of none here. I love your Shorts I wait for them to come out I always need a giggle.
You are killing it funk! Have showed all my buddy's your videos
Nice 👍🏻
"I'm surprised the weather people can predict the sunrise" 🤣🤣
The stool looked gimmicky but seen great reviews
The light could be used as an emergency beacon for a forklift if you had to pop to get a replacement
Umbrella is good as forklifts don’t always breakdown inside
The socket adapter is great, not everyone can afford every size driver
The pipe plug is cool, I have done plenty of brakes in my time, those would be handy
Drill shelf does a great job
The van tray is practical for a work van desk.
Hopefully we see some tools that beat science as those are great from you.
Happy new year 👍
I'm one of those people, who can unscrew a bolt, put it back in immediately, and end up with a spare cog and a spring...But I still love your videos, and I've actually leaned a thing or two. Thank you, keep up the great work and all the best in the new year!
2:17 this had me rolling
Great video and gadgets funk, as an hvac mechanic I'll fight anyone who laughs at the magnet umbrella
Wes, great video. Good Lord, you're at almost 500k subscribers. Honestly love your channel and videos. Everyone is educational and most are funny as hell. Wish you the very best this year.
I have actually used some of your tips and Wraglestars. The only 2 channels I’ve ever actually information from. I love you videos because I feel like I’m chilling with you as a young apprentice because I’m definitely not doing to college.
Thanks for all the great videos. And the laughs.
Thanks for recommending the portable stool. Work in IT, gotta go to different sites and most of the time it hard to find something to sit on when I wait for an engineer...
Hope you had a wonderful holiday season and thank you for making great videos for our enjoyment. Keep up the great work and all the best.
Ty for your time , jokes and videos!
Enjoying the videos man, keep it up 🍻
Those lights looked damn useful as did the umbrella. That one wasnt dumb at all, if i had one of those when i was workin on grip and electric trucks in film outside shoots woulda been much better. Dont always have space to build a mechanism inside the truck.
High quality edu-tainment here. Thank you for sharing your knowledge. And thank you for the time & effort you put into the videos. Greatly appreciated!
Those fluid clamps are awesome.
Happy new year buddy I hope you have a prosperous new year 👍 I like your short stuff and long format stuff
Man, I'm glad I found your channel. I enjoy your content and the commentary.
Awesome video, keep up the great work!
