Heya crew cheers for saying gday in the comments and I can see a lot of you have hit that like button for this video, it makes all the difference, these type of vids often don't get as many views so it great to see there is an audience out there and people finding them useful. Cheers again

Keep em coming! I came for your experiences with the Motoz Rallz, but stayed for a lot of other great wisdom. I don't have a DR but your wisdom applies to anyone who favors function over form. Was it you who had a canvas type mat that had a magnetic patch on it to lay your tools and parts on when working in the dirt? I've been looking for one of those for a year now and nobody understands what I'm talking about.

In South OZ there are 2 grades of storm water tube . a thinner cheaper 1 and a thicker more robust 1. I didn't see any primer on the joint bud ??? LOL. I made some of these for storing my arc welder rods. They keep the moisture out. On another note. I prefer shorter youtube vids. Some people go on for half an hour talking and repeating shit they can get across in a few min"s. No offence to you. But I like shorter more to the point vids. Good job. Even if there is a lack of primer.

What brand of metal putty do you carry; and has it successfully fixed anything?? Do you think any cheap brand of kneading-type epoxy stick would be worth carrying, in case of cracked engine-cases etc.? I'm only carrying a tiny tube of superglue, to make a paste with wood-ash or whatever powder I can find; and it has proven to plug a leaking radiator hose long enough to get home.
