As far as I know lots of Chinese products are imitations of better quality products. This way they already save a lot of time and money because they don't have to test and redesign and test and redesign etc... If you can figure out where they copied 'their' design, you might be able to find (cheap chinesium) replacement parts, that will miraculously fit perfect in your Chinese imitation product.
@mattgraham19834 ай бұрын
Most of the Chinese junk is interchangeable heaps of the seals and berings are common.. but some aren't... just totally depends on the supplier (often they will refuse to sell you a seal if it's not going to be checked) eg business use.. I've actually had heaps of issues getting bearings for my Escooter and they are a common size.. same size but for a drill press no issue😂 makes no difference to me I either order a set online and wait a month or one a week for 4 weeks 🤔🤷♂️ the really sad thing is Marty and any Kiwi is better off spending our dollars overseas but then we are the problem😂 hey its like the ban plastics bags so the supplier puts more products in plastic😂🤷♂️

This is the sort of stuff I wish my dad would've thought me when I was a kid, I'm sure it wouldn't have stuck to my head but to be fair lots of both useless and useful stuff does! He wasn't mechanically inclined other than what way to turn a spanner. I've swapped engines in cars and can do it in about 3 hours in a Volvo 360, but stuff like this, I would kill to have learned it from him. Or my mother, I'm not opposed to that either! 😂 I really really appreciate what you do and that you always seem to also teach your kids the same stuff. It's always so chill watching your videos, leaning back and actually learn something I might use, not some mindless "can I restore this hundred thousand dollar auction car and make a profit?!

I was given a three ton floor jack, it was given to me because it leaked and didn't work. I took all the seals out and visited my local seal supplier and got them to match up the seals. I then spent a pleasant afternoon cleaning and reassembling it, it's now my go to floor jack, I also made a saddle for it on my lathe because that was missing too. Sometimes it's better to repair than to just chuck the old one and buy a new one.

It's sad that the supplier didn't give you the kit as it's obviously a known fault with an upgrade fix. My younger son pulled a Peli case from a skip which had a broken catch, an easy fix. He looked on ebay and the prices for pattern parts was quite high, I suggested he go direct to Peli who said Lifetime Guarantee parts are free even when my son said he'd got it from a skip. They sent a complete set of eight catches not just the one. Really enjoy watching your videos.
