G'day Scott. A few years ago I was working with a bloke and he was always coming up with the best brain farts. When your using your puller, instead of the pointy pad I made a collar but had a countersunk hole in it. You find an old large ball bearing , smash it and get the balls. If you fit he new collar to your puller [with a bit of grease] and place one of the large balls between the puller and shaft it takes about 90% of the friction away from the contact surfaces and silly as it sounds it actually makes it easier to work your puller and comes off easily. Mate at least you are smart enough to have a go. Something we're all scared to do these day's.

G'day Scott, in the last three or four years, I started watching your channel with my 80ish yo father in law named Brian. We would watch your videos after family Saturday night dinners every week. As the lady folk would retire to the kitchen and wash the dishes, we would lounge on the couch and enjoy your content immensely. My FIL praised your skills and invention and ability to troubleshoot as he, too, would tinker and fix all and sundry that the family presented to him. From cracked porcelain to small engines. He could not speak of you highly enough and could not wait for a new video from you. He passed away a few weeks ago at the grand old age of 84. I miss the old coot and just wanted you to know that one of your biggest fans is no longer watching you. When I sat on the couch and turned on KZbin today and saw your latest video, I was overcome with emotion. This video is exactly what he would have loved. Thank you, thank you, thank you for the excellent content. Never underestimate the power your videos have to make people happy, and may you live long and prosper with the force always with you. From your Cairns fans.

Hi Scott, It’s very rewarding to get stuff working again instead of throwing it all in the bin. The electric clutch on my ride on blew to bits after 26 years and all it was, were two ball bearings let go. It’s designed as a throw away unit with the housing peined over the bearing races. It was a $600+ part. I managed to replace both bearings ($25) and now works like new. As a retired Fitter and Turner, I appreciate the satisfaction of that easy out working. Beats having to drill it totally out and clean up threads. I’m a lot like you mate. I’ll have a go at fixing anything, cause honestly, what’s the worst that can happen. Another great video bud.

One of the main reasons I've watched your channel is because I'm the same way. I love fixing things and making stuff! I will say you're at a much higher level than myself, but I still feel a kinship! When I was 12- 13, the dryer stopped working and Mom was rather upset about having to buy a new one. I asked if I could check it out. My brothers always had me fixing their bikes or other stuff they didn't want to mess with, and I'd discovered I had a mechanical bent for such things. Anyway, Mom read me the riot act about what could I possibly do to make it better? I suggested it wasn't like I could make it not work even more. She shrugged and gave me the go ahead. I started unscrewing things and removing clips and before long I was back upstairs telling Mom, "If you'll call Sears (it was a Kenmore), give them this serial number or this model number and they should be able to get you another one." "What makes you think this is the problem?" "See this burnt section where the coil is broken because of being burnt through?" She ordered the part and I had it back together and blowing hot air in short order! The parents were very pleased, but not enough to give me some extra allowance money. I saved them from buying a new one or an $80 service call or more, and she wouldn't give me $5. However, from that point forward, anything that broke came to me 1st, AND my new nickname was "Joe Kenmore" for the rest of her days. Probably more than anyone really wanted to read, but thanks for stirring up some good memories of days gone by! Keep up the good work, brother.

I have fixed a few washing machines by changing the circuit board, saving a huge chunk of money. All the best!

In this story (forgive me if I've remembered wrong after so many years) two guys are touring the USA on BMW touring bikes. When something breaks on one of the bikes and it's going to take a few weeks to get a replacement part, one of them (the purist) wants to wait for the part. The other guy is practical and says they can make a shim with a bit of Coke can and it'll be better than the original part. I think we all know who Scott is in this picture. 🙂

I lashed out on a brand new ride-on for the acreage we had, it was a twin-blade version, but it didn't take long to destroy the deck, it was just a flimsy pressed steel thing, so I fabricated a plate version, that didn't break in a hurry. I swapped out the plates and small blades for a 1 piece solid blade, 2 of course, they don't swing out of the way when you hit something, but tend more to ride up and over rocks and just chop off small low tree stumps. My biggest problem was the ground had so many rocks in it and running over them all the time would just keep working them to the surface. 😏

You could put a piece of Pipe over the shaft and the puller so it can't come off. All the best from Austria

I’ve got one of those hydraulic gear puller kits can apply 10 or 12 tonnes of force. Gets me out of a jam once or twice a year.
@ScottTurnerformeindustrious2 ай бұрын
Those are good for sure. I've had this little puller since I was 20 (30+ years now). comes in handy.

Mr Fixit eh Scott? Well mate it’s what you have to do sometimes. You’ve got a pretty well equipped workshop and the tools and resources to have a go at it so why not. Besides look at the money you’ve saved by doing it yourself. Well done mate 👍🏾

Regarding the cutter deck. I'm concerned that the welds could have heat effected the disc and are now possibly neat fracture line points. I'd add the doubler plates but have them go to a point towards the centre so the welds are radial with much less risk if cracks develop.
