You're welcome! Clear skies!

So glad the video helped unstick the blades!

@@whilldtkwriter Later last evening I found the blade difficult to turn, so I tried a follow up. I brought a glass of water, half filled, to a boil in the microwave. Then I placed the cutter assembly upon the glass rim, to allow it to heat up. I dripped Olive Oil over the drive end sprocket and twisted the sprocket. I poured off and reapplied several times, My hope was that as the assembly cooled down, it would suck the olive oil into the shaft. So far it seems to have helped. It may be ok to use a premium lubricating oil, but I'm a bit paranoid.

@@JohnNelson-p1n I hope your solution works. I think some other commenters mentioned adding a little bit of dish soap in the boiling water to really remove any residues. As you have added olive oil, considering the appliance is for food items, I don't know if using a lubricating oil would be either helpful or harmful. Had you tried powering on your appliance to see if it spun well? I myself made sure to rinse the post-boiled assy, wipe dry w/rag, hand-rotated a few turns, and set it on something to ensure total air dry. I put the assy back in the blender and pushed the button to ensure it still spins. I use the blender often enough that it doesn't freeze up.

I believe this sticky situation occurred because it sits on the shelf for months. My first attempt, it came loose, but perhaps I should have loaded it and run for a few minutes. Anyway today it freely rotates. Thanks again for launching my efforts, and resulting success!

@@JohnNelson-p1n Glad it's working again. Be sure to occasionally power the blender on to ensure it spins. I know what you mean about not using the appliance for months at a time. Haven't ground items or blended hummis in awhile.

What part/parts did you like the best?

Thanks for nice words! Amazing we have repurposeable items around the house. BTW, in the past, I've also repurposed some tops for soft but lumpy cooky dough dispensing, modifying them for cooky press use. More details at whilldtkwriter.blogspot.com/2022/06/pt-2-cooky-pressing-choco-chip-cooky.html.

I think bucks mate with does, then go on their merry way (autumn time). Around May/June when does drop their loads, mums and fawns stay close to each other for awhile. I have captured scenes of seemingly social herding. You might be able to infer if you view some of my deer playlist videos. Males pal around during summer, fuzzy antlered. By fall, they've scraped off the fuzz, no longer hang ou with guys, compete for does, dominance, and territory.

YW!. I myslef ha'd used the tape to tape over a crack I'd made to my car's taillight.

Glad you like the followup! I'll have one more in about a month or so. The remaining cedar will need cutting down. About a couple of weeks ago, it snapped so that the top half is angled about 90 degrees but still attached. Intending to record the cutting, removal, and stump surface. The scale is Vemco of Pasadena Ca. Marked for tenth inches on one edge ("50TH"), twelfth inches on other side ("32ND"). BTW, for best accuracy in drawing items on mech dwgs,, used E-size gridded mylar (tenth-in grid) underneath medium on motorized Mayline drafting table. Still have plastic templates and triangles? I do.

Thanks! Glad you like the video with the scenery and additions!

Thanks for comment and compliment! View "2023 Ice 'N' Arborgeddon", studio.kzbin.infoRU8uvbViq8w/edit. That storm took out a lot more than just the ashe junipers. We paid a neighbors friend of the family (storm chasing tree trimmer) to cut and haul. Lots of trimmers had lots of business for the next month or so.

Glad you like the video! Thanks for sharing your experiences w/sycamores.

It was a partial solar eclipse in my neck of the woods. People farther south were able to see the entire eclipse.

So many deer in area this year. Can't tell one fawn from another, nor does apart, nor bucks apart. Prolly the li'l deer's ok. I read they're able to get on feet really quickly after birth, able to run within a week.

YW! I'm planning to work on a similar how-to WRT an image (editable .xcf) that has 3 Saturn, which I would add the Nov 22 Saturn. Will squeeze the project sometime this month.

Glad you enjoyed it. If you're in the mood for more deer, click the playlist tab, then the Oh Deer bunch.

Thanks so much for the bon mots! I'm so glad the video helped you get your blender working again!

Thanks! My article mentions some aligning methodology, such as grids, edges, and other sun image stacking.

Thanks! Good you got good view of the annularity where you went and at the right time.

Glad you're enjoying them! Check out the Oh, Deer playlist for more of the cuties. My neighborhood has had loads of them for several years.

Glady you like them! For more deer cuties, check out the Oh Deer playlist in the PLAYLISTS tab.

Glad you enjoyed the video! Interesting about the Zappa song. Made me think of Seinfeld episode featuring Elaine and muffins. "Mr. Lippman Steals Elaine's Idea | The Muffin Tops | Seinfeld", kzbin.info/www/bejne/j4rOm2WvjsZ6qrc for highlights of her dilemma of ridding muffin "stumps".

Glad you like them! Be sure to also view the July 2023 vid of another set of fawns and mom. kzbin.info/www/bejne/lYScp6eZat2Dp7M

Thanks for compliments! Thanks for warning about eating the pre-treated acorn. I'd run across articles about how Native Americans treated them before use or flour grinding.

Thanks for complements! Be sure to view the soda pop layer cake followup (kzbin.info/www/bejne/b6bPoKSrnM96pLs) where I used more effective implements to sift, stir, and dispense. They shortened the time and effort somewhat. BTW, the pitcher would probably be really helpful in case you decide to make cupcakes instead of layer cake. Guess is to spray oil into muffin cakes, fill 2/3 full, and bake for about 18 or so minutes coz of muffin well size. Might be enough batter to dispense up to 18 cupcakes. Let me know how baking(s) go.

Thanks! Sometimes you never know when a subject will show up.

Glad you like it! I've re-pored over the links for both "Birds-spied Views" and "Bees N Blooms" (not the REF links). Didn't find 404-type msgs. I did have some weird msgs during going-llive finishing touches, but YT seemed to have fixed the hiccuping. If you run into broken link again, pls let me know where--maybe send me a screenshot. TIA!

Maybe soak it in very warm soapy water overnight then try moving the blade. I think someone said they had a plastic one and was able to get it moving again.

Glad the video helped you get your blender working again. Nice that you persevered with cleaning the blade assy more. A few other commenters have said that a little detergent also helped. Remember to occasionally run the motor to ensure the blade continues to spin. And if stuck, revisit the video info.

@@whilldtkwriter i used my blender a few days back it was working perfectly but yesterday i tried to mak milkshake in it and it's blades were stuck, i don't know what's the problem, if i send it to repair you know they will charge me a lot even if the problem is such a small one so i searched online and found your video, it looks easy but i'm not sure if i can do it i never did anything like this on my own, should i try ? How do i open the panasonic blender's base it's a little different than your's, should i just turn it like you did ? I'm fed up of getting things out of order i want to learn it myself😟

@@promax9159 Hi! Do you have a manual for your Panasonic blender? If not, find the model number and do a google search for the model's manual that might show you what the parts are and how to separate them. Main separation is jar/gasket/bladeassy from base that attaches to the motor unit. Then separate the jar from gasket from blade assy. Boil water; drop blade assy in for a few minutes, adding a little liquid detergent if helpful. Rinse the blade assy in cooler water and see if the blades move. Pay close attention to the order of the parts you separate. Be careful of sharp points and hot water. Let me know how the fix works. The video might reinforce the instructions and order of items. Good luck!

@@whilldtkwriter thanks for replying, i tried to open it and it's base got opened with the lightest pressure, i boiled it for a few minutes as it's plastic it started moving but still not moving like it should, i want to open the base of the blade to take everything out and clean them but don't know how to open because there is no bolt at it's bottom, there is just a round flat headed piece of iron in the centre of the black plastic that fits on the machine, can not open it

@@promax9159 Let's try something different. As you a a YTuber, you can post videos. Put a camera on a tripod, record the Panasonic blender--move it around, rotate it, show frontal, bottom views. Make sure you mention the model number or show text on video. Separate the parts that you can, recording so you can put everything back. Get some video of the motor in motion in real time with different settings. Upload the video and reply to this message with your video URL. Let's see if we can get your blender functioning again.

Thanks for the compliment! I tend to research a lot so I can infer project strategies. Results don't always come out the way I want, but they plant ideas for future items, including cookies.

Moderation, you know. Hatching plan for another twist on oatmeal cookies soon.

Is the blender blade working now?

YW! Yah, cute critter! And I'm envious of the lawn!

Glad the video helped resolve your blender blade assy problem with no damage! You're welcome!

YW! Your suggestion sounds tasty! Eh, I basically work at being lazy w/methodologies. As for scooping, I discuss a bit of it in "Low-effort Choco Chip Cake Mix Cookies" (whilldtkwriter.blogspot.com/2022/04/low-effort-choco-chip-cake-mix-cookies.html) in the "Dough Dispensing" section. Scooping can get tedious because of the one-at-a-time source-to-destination travel loop for dough. My next attempt will probably be using a house brand cake mix, same maraschino cherry methodology, and adding a half envelope of cherry Kool-Aid into the oil and egg mixture.

Thanks for compliment! Heh! Logistics just wouldn't work, I imagine. Too many possible options, control issues over refrigeration, varieties, differing dough densities. Cooky options are really varied. From ready-to-eat shelf stable cookies and baked-fresh cookies to pouched dry ingredients for adding wet ingredients, to refrigerated pre-formed pellets. Then, of course, scratch-process and also cake-mix cookies for letting creativity pique the baker.

Hi, Joel. Glad the video helped resolve your issue. I suspect that over time, some small amount of liquefied food residue built up into the blade assembly, sticking parts together at room temperature. Boiling the assembly (the water then acting as high-temperature solvent) dissolved the gunk so things could loosen up and move again.

YW! Thanks for kind words! Poke around the blog articles to get a bit more details. Also, feel free to check out more of my vids and associated articles. Funny! Trivet was the best term I could think for hot-item insulator. My mind also thought of the phonetic rhyming word--privet.

Thanks so much for the ego-swelling compliments! It's been a growing and improving process with videos over time.

YW! So happy the video helped save your mom's blender!

Thanks! I saw your nice vid on chocolate chip cookies. I'm more of quick and lazy w/my chocolate chip cooky recipe. Some future time, I hope my dough and funnel dispensing speed is quicker than for my first try.

Glad my video helped! May you never have any further problems with your blender!

You sound happy!😂

So glad your Kitchenaid blade works now!

The cheese tops it all!

Thanks! Weirdness comparing pandemic year decorations w/other years. Several tables inviting kids to stay outside for their goodies.

Contrasting year to year since 2018, nice to see slightly different arrangements with same or similar items at some of the houses. Guess my touring has become a tradition w/me. :-)

Rural areas tend not to get as big an audience of drive-by's.
