I Bought Shark Tank Tools

[@dunemaster93]

I snapped the fiberglass handle on my shovel and repaired it with fiberfix just to finish the job I was doing. I bought a replacement shovel anticipating the fiberfix to fail at some point. 5 years later, shovel is still going strong, and The new shovel is in the shed sitting unused. Im still amazed by it every time I dig.

[@digitalphoenix72]

As a mechanic, if you want a true test of the hand cleaner, lather some grease from a grease gun (for fittings), theb rub your hands around a dirty engine. Thats much more representative of our hands at the end of the day than just fresh oil and rubbed in dirt🤣 I've never worked in a shop that had dirt readily available to rub our hands in😂

[@The93Vector]

The hand cleaner was basically GoJo or any other pumice hand soap. Rejected.

[@sintanan469]

Yup. Its just GoJo with some hand lotion. You can get something similar by just taking some dish soap and mixing in some clay powder. Lacks the pumice, but does everything you need in a solid cleaner.

To be fair, cinderblocks will break if you look at them for long enough

[@MichaelWilliams-vb6wr]

Toated block for a bricklayer and you drop one from 3ft and it breaks you ain't wrong with this comment

[@1pcfred]

How easy it is to break concrete block depends on its age. Fresh block is pretty delicate. It takes 28 days for concrete to reach its rated strength and concrete just keeps getting harder the longer it ages. Concrete is actually a crystal. Like those those crystals you grow in water when you're a child. Concrete is something like that. The crystals interlocking is what gives concrete its strength. Blocks haven't been made out of cinders for a long time now. Just FYI. They're made out of concrete today.

[@jakeaboutit]

You could do the same application with duct tape. Or just whack it with a 2x4. He was way over impressed

[@johnmack537]

A couple of screws would likely have made the two boards strong enough to break the cinder block, and be A LOT cheaper.

[@coreytaggart128]

Wood really is about the best chance for that stuff, glue can penetrate and when it dries and constricts has the most chance to compress into and grip it. copper pipe where it is smooth and won't compress showed the other side of that.

Man, I ran a produce department with a fresh fruit operation for 3 years and I can say without a shadow of a doubt that you have the most mid way of cubing a melon i've ever witnessed. Almost there, but you should start with cutting the ends off, then you can stand the whole melon on its end, you can see where the depth of the rind is and begin your cut at the top and spin the melon as you're making cuts along the edge, then you can cube the remaining flesh or make wedges or do whatever.

[@nikkafrog]

I got the grypmat for my husband andhe loves it. The nice thing that john didnt mention was that chemicals will not eat the silicone. And you have a place to put all the bolts, screws, ect that will not roll around and lose them. You can throw it right on the engine if you want. Worth it, but look out for sales or bundles when you buy it.

[@petrolhead0387]

Its also heat resistant, I use one for soldering and the molten solder doesn't even mark it, let alone burn it.

[@Asylus]

How well does it work on wet surfaces?

[@smokeybowls187]

​@@AsylusDon't personally own it, but I'd imagine it should work as well as any other silicone mat on a wet surface; think silicone bath mats, for example. The effectiveness largely comes down to both how wet & polished the surface is though. A wet, highly polished surface is quite slick and even silicone may not grip as effectively if at all.

[@ipissed]

He's going to knock his tools off into the engine compartment and lose them. A tool belt for tools, and a tackle box for nuts and bolts. Never pile anything around the engine compartment, it's like a black hole. Is this his fancy MAC tools ratchet I found the other day. It cost way more than the Grypmat. Oh well finders keepers.

[@nikkafrog]

@ipissed have you ever worked on an engine? While working on it, you want to everything in reach. Tools belts are for carpentry, not mechanics. The grypmat stops the tools rolling around. Between the silicone gripping and the lip on the tray. The reason this brand is a little different than other silicone trays is the chemicals resistant. Silicone is great for heat and sticky things like glues and resins. But sucks with acetone and brake cleaner. Even nail mats which should be acetone safe since how often it is used in nails, aren't. Reason: That type of silicone is expensive. Some things are worth spending more due to quality. (I think the end of your comment was about price. That was hard to understand)

[@johndorian2670]

@18:45 when it seeps through, its probably not intended for pressurized pipes, the demos show it being used for drains. The fact that it took a jet to a few drops is better than nothing though.

Recently, a tree cutting crew had to move the stand to work in my yard. They wrenched the stand out of the ground, did their work, and hammered it back into the ground. The FiberFix held everything together just fine.

I used the fiber fix to repair my closet rod because it was cheaper than buying a new rod. It's still holding strong 7 years later. Also the original one I remember having came with rubber that you would wrap the pipe with first and then the fi er wrap to create the "water tight" seal.

With the hand wash stuff, you're doing it in a bucket. So I'd assume the crease and oil comes off, and floats on the top. Since you're dunking your hands in, the last thing that your hands go through is that floating oil and grease, which is causing that feeling. Might work better with running water.

While the JB Weld fiber fix may not work, we do use a similar product on ships for pipe patching. It's called EWARP - Emergency Water Activated Repair Patch. Works similarly... and takes a hell of a lot less time than doing an old-fashioned pipe patch.

Fun story a coworker of mine used the fiberflex to fix a snowplow mirror bracket. 7 years later and it's still there. He also didn't think you'd need the gloves. He definitely needed the gloves.

I mean, as long as it's not dried out; FiberWeld is great to keep around the cabin or cottage as a temporary fix out in the boonies. Also, they probably made a specific water proof version because of those gaps in the fabric which still did a decent job to slow the flow.

[@NKBobcat]

I use that hand cleaner and I have to say it is a fantastic product. Far better than Zep or Gojo or Fast Orange, and I've used gallons of each of them.

[@christophermetz1550]

That JB weld tape is interesting because they use coban to wrap it in the end. That stuff is good for everything. I always keep a decent aupply of the stuff in the home and workshop.

I use the gripclean soap 5 days a week. It gets my hand and nails clean. I do use a scrub brush with it to really dig under the nails. Bonus it is only made 50 miles from my house. They selll online and in Walmart (at least the ones near me).

[@ryanmiskin]

I used some of that fiber fix as a temporary patch on a busted water main. It took it from a huge jet of water to a slow drip until I was able to get the pipe replaced.

[@butter7734]

You know what I found that works well patching pipes. You get viva paper towels and spray flex seal on it stick it to the pipe then flex seal on top. Both of the places i used it have been leak free for years and still going.

I have a three size set of the gryp mats and as a mechanic I love them use them on every big job

[@dreadisdarkore2703]

The nail/screw guard might be pretty useful for teaching people how to use their tools. give them some leeway so they can get use to aiming the tools while using enough force to actually put nails/screws into stuff.

[@Weinertroner]

A little bit of oil on the fingers while pinching a chaw of dark winter green is the best tasting dip you'll ever have.

[@IppiopaidFEEDBACK]

5:42 I haven’t done that in years because I learned my lesson on how not putting too much pushing force while drilling. Nothing worse than having a Robinson #2 bit going through your thumb nail! It’s been over 15 years since I’ve done that, because I learn how use drills properly.

[@K162KingPin]

1:40 You can do the same thing with any relatively inexpensive scrub pad that some in packs of 20 for $5. 3:00 You can do the same with any tape. Duct tape, Electrical, even scotch tape. If there is any trick to it, it is simply to swing and use the momentum of the "hammer" to break the block rather than trying to follow through on the swing which would eventually destroy the tape. 5:40 There are readily available screw driver tips with a slid-able sheath over them. You can pull this down most of the length of the screw then place the screw in it. This automatically retracts as you drive the screw in. Because it is covering the screw it prevents the screw from shooting out sideways as you describe injuring your hand. These have been on the market for at least 30 years, possibly much longer. 5:53 If you slow mo that "pitch on shark tank" he didn't actually hit his fingers with the hammer. It wasn't even close. That said, the mistake most people make is holding the nail like you would hold a pencil. If you do miss and hit a finger or tumb you are hitting on the side of the nail. This can result in cutting the nail into the finger, or even tearing the nail partly from the nail bed which is very painful. Instead turn your palm facing up and hold the nail between two fingers. Then if you do miss you are hitting the soft flexible side of the finger. Sure you can still do damage, but it would take a much harder hit to do serious damage compared to the other method. More importantly you should never try and hit a nail so hard that it drives completely into the wood while holding it. Just tap it lightly until the tip is stuck, then move your fingers and finish driving it in. If you want a tool that requires the use of one hand to hold a nail and protect your hand, pliers have been around literally for thousands of years. A pair of needle noise or slip joint pliers is already perfect for this job and offers much more dexterity that this ridiculous tool. 8:40 This product is actually genius. I can't believe someone figure out how to sell dirt for $10 an ounce. I would bet all they did was mix a little dirt and orange juice into dawn dish soap. That said. I spend many years working in the oil field. Arguably one of the dirtiest jobs on the planet. All I used to clean was dawn dish soap. That got everything from oil and grease in my hair to that grime under your nails thats nearly impossible to get out. Also you can buy a large bottle for less than this tiny bottle of dirt soap cost. 10:30 This is actually pretty smart. I hope its made of metal instead of plastic. 13:50 Fiberglass already exists. 17:20 You could just as easily break that with just the board, or even your fist wearing a glove. Those blocks are DESIGNED to hold weight on the top and bottom and are very weak on the sides. 20:28 While there is no justification for this to cost more than $20 tops, its not a bad product. I think instead of using it to hold tools I would cram it under parts I'm removing to ensure I couldn't drop a bolt or nut that then gets lost down in the engine or the frame somewhere. For holding tools. I use a full sized plastic barrel. It only cost $30 new, its very light weight and easy to move around, and it offers a much larger surface to put tools on. Just role it over where you are working for an instant table about the same height as the hood. 23:12 Again, electric knives already exist. You can get one at walmart for $15

The "leaky pipe" fiber fixed in their demo was not a pressurized pipe like copper, it was 2:11 a big pvc house sewer like under a shower or sump discharge or something with much lower pressure.

[@Hellsong89]

Yeah fiber fix has shelf life and even if its vacuum sealed, some air will get in eventually and with air moisture it activates the epoxy. I bought few rolls from convention and when shelf life was about to go out, just got peace of cardboard tube and rolled it over it over lapping and made carbon fiber tube type of thing and then made it into light weight suppressor for airsoft gun as experiment, so those would not be wasted. Also you are suppose to rub the resin so it fuses to over lapping layers specially in the end. Also helps to fuse into base material.

[@Stpattyman]

I like how Sam said absolutely when he asked if he minded going to Ace and he just ignored him and said bye 😂

[@DaveFromColorado]

I have used fiberfix before, I have ms, when I was still able to walk, I was walking past my daughter's crib and I literally fell into the rail and broke it. I used fiber fix to repair the broken area and it worked. It held that repair all the way up to when we changed it over to a toddler bed and then got rid of it for her twin bed. For 5 years it was working perfectly and we through the hole crimp into the garbage when we upgraded her bed with that repair still working properly. Honestly it felt and looked and smelled just like dark colored cast material, that you would make a cast for a broken bone out of. But it worked for what I needed.

Grip clean soap works a whole lot better than the other soaps out there. I like the stuff.

[@joshuaterry5]

I've used the fiber wrap on shovels where the wood meats the metal that would break in hard dirt and the wrapped shovels would hold up 20x as long as just your basic shovel
