Buying a Robotic Lawn Mower and Using Excavator to Fix the Yard

[@MrSaemichlaus]

Here in Switzerland, all the waterfront property is either, publically protected, commercially used or insanely expensive, or you'd have to know the right people to even get a chance to buy it. Very nice to see you live right at the water, it adds something of a calming atmosphere I think.

[@thomasnorb4077]

In Norway the waterfront is also protected (100 meters) and often expensive in central areas, but we have a lot of it and it can be cheap in more rural areas. Sweden and Norway have tens of thousands of lakes, so it's really easy to find a cabin next to a lake like Björnström lives in. Real estate is especially cheap in northern Scandinavia.

[@PrivatePAuLa29a]

@@thomasnorb4077 i reckon it's dirt cheap up north with what only having sun for half the year, eh? ;)

That flexible bit driver for the drill is really cool!

45:23 the sheer amount of labor an excavator can perform compared to a human for just a few gallons of gas an hour, practically sipping it, is truly mind blowing

[@zebracherub]

Yes !! I think the same every time going on the highway casually traveling through kilometers and kilometers with just a few liters. Our human nature really is immensely weak and I’m just amazed by how mankind built entire cities and countries

[@mbuster6769]

I think you should put some rock in front of the outlet to prevent the dirt from washing away and create deep ruts. I love the variety of the jobs you do: from blowing up rocks to delicate engineering, keep it coming!

[@jmonsted]

Having had a robot lawnmower for eight years, i would definitely have left the second of the pair of wires long enough to be used, because you will definitely have wire breaks several times :)

[@einzelkampfer2006]

I've heard, using an angle grinder works perfect for making the trench for the wire. Anyways, thanks for another great video. It's always a pleasure to watch them.

[@celeron55]

You can also just install the wire on the grass with plastic or metal hooks. The grass will grow over it and in a year or two you can't find the wire again even if you wanted to. No need to do the mini trench.

[@inotoff]

Got a Spa like yours at home. You're supposed to fit the inflatable top part inside the cover so you can remove everything at once. Much more convenient. And thx for the videos :)

[@tonepoem4438]

Me too got the exact same spa, but mine came with a rubber ducky and a squeegee rubber frog?

The mower needs a snow plough attachment, it would take a heck of a long perimeter wire for the airport lol.

[@horstszibulski19]

[@TheGrizzlyBeer]

Valtra did build an autonomous tractor to clear snow on an airport... Like an automower (autoplower?) on steroids...

You’ve got yourself a nice little slice of heaven there brother, good for you! You work hard enough, you should have a quiet relaxing retreat to rest up at… Thanks for taking us along 👍🏼👍🏼

[@arttujmoi_5937]

Connect the wires in parallel. Now the extra wire weakens the singal if the bare ends are in the ground.The video is really pleasant to watch. I like the beautiful ending.

[@fluke196c]

i think the twisted pair would block the eddie currents needed to pick up the boundary.

[@weexpectedthis]

there's something satisfying about seeing someone who is so handy and works with their hands all day doing everyday around-the-house chores that all us normies do

[@martinsmith1447]

Great video as always! Those robot mower don’t like any other power cables underground it can get them confused! Maybe the cause of the couple of areas you’re having issues.

[@regenwurm5584]

I was expecting 1 more month for a new video. Nice!

[@carlf8291]

I always wondered how a remote lawnmower worked that's pretty cool.

Modern ones doesn't use a wire, they use GPS for positioning instead.

[@AndreasRavnestad]

04:36 If the battery wasn't already dead, it certainly is now (unless it has a BMS built in, which is not likely). Trying to charge lithium batteries in that manner will destroy them, and could potentially be very dangerous. But anyway, nice video as always!

[@inotoff]

Even so, a BMS doesn't limit charging current. I came here so see if he's trolling us with its charging method ^^

[@juniperreborn7956]

I was wondering this too - Is the problem that you can't charge a Lithium Ion battery with a normal car battery ? I'd be suprised if the voltages etc. lined up

[@chriastr]

[@pabloguastavino4877]

I was thinking exactly the same, but it's Matthias ... you know. I've stop worrying about a year ago. :)

[@zincfive]

I'm not sure that would kill them or be particularly dangerous. He did say they were sitting from 2018, and showed they were super dead only showing a few 1/100's of a volt, which for sure will kill the cells. Looked at the stiga site, the current models about that size come with a 30v/2A charger, the batteries are 25v, pretty small, only 2 AH, and are designed to charge for 40 minutes, run for 40 minutes, which might imply any bms that might be in the shell isn't very concerned with maximizing the lifespan of the cells by doing some sort of slow top-up type charge profile, plus they clip you 300 bucks for replacements, good for business. There should be over-charging protection in the batteries themselves. But for one cycle, I'd guess the truck battery at 25v wouldn't kill them, the 1-1 charge/run cycle and the power supply suggests its charging near 30v 2A (60watt) until full anyway, profile, and there is probably near zero risk of danger.

Should do a cantilevered setup for the jetskis to make it easy to take them in and out of the river. Some long aluminum spans, quick release harness on the jetski end and a concrete counterweight on the other. Balance on a pivot point. A wheel or lever to control position.

[@kurtnowak8895]

You will be glad that you ran both conductors of that wire around your yard when one accidentally breaks. Can you explain how you control the excavator to make a straight level cut? It seems like 2 or 3 cylinders are moving at the same time, yet the cut you make is still nice and level. How do you control the speed of each “axis” so that the shovel makes a straight draw across the soil?

[@NUTTER8291]

Thats a beautiful property and so much land But i see why you put your hottub where you did BEAUTIFUL VIEW... VERY JEALOUS 😊

[@horstmuller7512]

Only a matter of time until you modify the mower, so in winter it can plow the snow in your garden.

[@stilljens]

I hope you didn't lay the cable too tightly in the ground. I made the same mistake and the cable broke when the ground froze and expanded in winter. It's better to lay it a little looser and less perfectly in the ground. Your place is wonderful! Greetings from Germany! 🙂

[@sikey4085]

If you ever want to upgrade the robomower go for Segway Navimow, Gps based and cutting the lawn systematically.

[@merlepatterson]

27:42 That looked like a masonry bit. (it's easy to confuse them with metal bits) Also, you might think about bringing the robot mower into the house in the winter. Lithium batteries don't do well in cold temps.
