We’re in the times of throwaway and replace. It’s refreshing to see somebody repairing and fixing old tools 👊🏻

[@lebensschueler]

Man I came to this channel to fix my makita drill and now I cant stop watching. This channel is also the reason I started buying used tools to fix them up as a hobby. Really inspirational and interesting. Also the amount of videos you post, incredible! Keep up the good work, my most favourite channel right now! :)

[@jameskirk3]

According to my taxes I've made $503 this year selling old cabinet saws, drill presses and big bandsaws. Plus one belt sander and a jointer. Gotta love it. I really look forward to hunting down $50 saws.

[@lebensschueler]

This video was super meditative! I am a qualified Industrial Designer (The profession often responsible for the bad/obsolete products) and boy are your videos great at highlighting the dodgey practices! Keep these videos coming Dean! May I be cheeky suggest a video were you break down a tool from all of the consumer grade companies (DeWalt, Milwakee, Makita etc) and possibly rate them on reliability, repairabilty and life expectancy?

[@thibaultmerlin]

When i was a kid every time i went to a car mechanic or anything like this with parents i always wanted to go behind the counters to see what they were doing. Now i finally can lol TY.

I was thinking how maaany thousands of devices and faults you must have seen to learn how things come appart and more critically go Back together again working. Recently I dropped a very small component inside a switch, without which it failed to work properly. found it later. I am so impressed by your diagnostics.

[@STV-H4H]

While I’m happy that all my tools are in good working order, I’m strangely disappointed. I want to go into my work shop and fix something. That’s really a sign of addiction to fixing things. 😂 Back in ‘85 I worked for a construction rental company. I was just the shop labor kid, but fixing pneumatic hammers and such was an enjoyable part of the job. Seeing that lead bucket was what flashed me back. I only did that work for around a year but the experience helps even now a hundred years later

[@bionicman6969]

That figures, Dewalt realizes they built a tough gun that will run forever with simple maintenance so they make it obsolete. That's engineering today, planned obsolescence. I have a van load plus workshop of many different brand tools, most of my cordless are Dewalt and Paslode and spend many evenings fixing and servicing my tools, the guys are hard on them, lol. Thanks this channel is great.

Love your content - great to see a professional at work. Re: Makita hm0810t hammer - I had a problem after purchasing some replacement Bits from Amazon. The Bits were made of a cheap soft metal which led to the tool bits wearing quickly and, more disastrously, the end 'mushrooming' inside the tool holder. It took me two hours to remove the Bit.

[@deandohertygreaser]

Yea, never buybthe cheap bits, iv seen this a lot of sds drills also.

I have the big milwaukee impact gun, have had for 4yrs now. It has been sounding funny last 3-4 times we grabbed it. Sometimes nothing happens then pull trigger now it makes a soft soud like its trying work but does not.. we had used it alot i own Landscaping and snow removal company. Bought the newer model today. Hope it last 4 yrs of hard use.

My building partner has this Dewalt bradder and I have the proceeding model. I have always liked how smooth his operated. I was a mechanic in a former life. I noticed too how smooth the old 7" corded dewalt circular saw was and the former jigsaw model. Just saying.

Your camera work is astonishing! Just found your videos and I'm loving them 👍

[@llamudos9809]

WOW amazing to watch your work. 1 question i notice you only usually apply a grease to the mechanical parts (pistons etc.). But wondered why you do not apply some silicone spray to the nail gun springs etc to free them up when rusty?

Cheers Dean. Old Bostitch coil framing nailer, air coming out the trigger well, but a trigger valve and O ring kit didn't fix it. Any idea? Maybe dropped and broken internals? Or damaged piston?

[@jaraisz06]

What type of solution do you use to clean the thick grease ?

[@daves4026]

[@OaklynMediaLLC]

Do you have all these spare parts on hand because you fix tools so often or do you cut to days later after they are ordered? You go through spare parts pretty often. I'm just curious.

[@Reman1975]

Jesus! Anyone else watching the way he's stripping and rebuilding these with practiced ease, and thinking that it wouldn't be surprising if he started reciting something like..... "This is my nail gun. There are many like it, but this one is mine. My nail gun is my best friend. It is my life. I must master it as I must master my life. Without me, my nail gun is useless. Without my nail gun, I am useless. I must fire my nails true. I must shoot them straighter than my co workers who is trying to sabotage my productivity.........."? :D

[@steveyates2423]

HI Dean - just curious - what battery adapter do you use for the Dewalt Nail Gun? I've had the 15 G for about 15 years and can't get replacement batteries for anything like an economical cost in Australia. The Dewalt adaptor doesn't work and Dewalt have told ,e these guns don't work with their adaptors. Cheers Steve

[@deandohertygreaser]

Ebay and Amazon have nicad to lithium adaptors. So you can fit your lithium batter to old nicad tools. Dewalt don't make them, they are knock offs. Dewalt want you to buy the new gun. So tell everyone there is nothing available

[@deandohertygreaser]

I have never got any 40v tools in for repair yet.

[@williammorris3303]

Seems like some company would make parts for obsolete tools that were good

[@electroluxlad]

That’s why I killed off my Dewalt because of the fact that the old my nicads were so reliable and when I swapped over to the lithium ion stuff, I was really disappointed because it was absolute garbage Milwaukee’s been a lot better for me, but if they were still producing the old quality of the old DeWalt stuff, I would still be using them

Love watching your video. Whats your opinion on Ryobi

[@deandohertygreaser]

One the vest DIY brands out there. Very impressive range of tools, good battery platform, quality of quite good for the money and performance is good. Some tools I would even recommend to a pro. Brad nailer for one, on par with the makita and over half the price

[@alandaly5570]

I have the 18g nailer. Never missed a beat

[@richiejames928]

Iv got that makita headless and it’s a nightmare!! the magazine is held in place by the two screw on the back. they come loose and the mag pulls out. nightmare!! Youl also need the dry fire stop pin, That flys across the room along with the pin pushing plate you mentioned when you pull the magazine assembly off with your hands…. Makita really got this gun wrong

[@richiejames928]

Also worth noting that the firing pins on these are very very fragile, The end often chips off meaning you won’t fully sink the pins. If they don’t snap they bend and jam the gun. the entire gun is extremely fragile. Iv repaired mine 10+ times.

[@richiejames928]

Sorry, dry fire stop pin and tiny spring that goes along with it. Hope that helps.

[@deandohertygreaser]

Sorry your wrong, makita got every cordless nail gun wrong 🤣. I love makita tools, but never like the nail guns or pin guns.

[@petrokemikal]

Dewalt are such crooks.. Its not the first time the have went backwards making tools.. I have the 391 circular saw and its been bullet proof.. I burnt out the brushes a couple of months ago and simply bought a new set and installed them, good as new again.. I tried a mates new brushless, dont know the model number but he says its supposed to be the sucessor or more upmarket version of the 391, it was good, but the 391 is better, lighter, cuts quicker and costs less.. Dewalt will be none too happy with that.. Probably stop selling the 391 or start cutting off parts spares for them just like the old nailer you have here..
