It's rewarding to restore old pieces of equipment and bringing them back to life. Also very satisfying to use something old made new again.

[@etchmfg]

It's so satisfying to see these old machines restored, it really gets me excited to get back out in the shop and changes my perspective on the things I already have; causing me to realize how blessed I am to have them and to take better care of them and restore as much as I can. Thanks!

[@LifeinFarmland]

Ok, I laughed for several minutes about the the how do you like that safety sally comment at 4:23. Great video!

[@marcday4601]

Volunteer firefighter from a small country town in north west Ohio. Gotta love these old skid units, you don't find many of these around anymore! Great find!

[@Parlusk]

For future reference, lowes and tractor supply sales enamel paint in several different colors, I have seen heavy equipment, trucks, trailers etc painted with it and turns out great. $26.00 a gallon

[@dongery2161]

Great find. Gives you a great feeling, like christmas morning as a kid, to find good equipment that needs a little love and some minor modifications to fit your needs. I could hear that joy in your voice. Thanks for the video.

[@samandnia]

I love your cinematography skills, Cody.

[@MrJoeKaluzny]

I think I am enjoying this project almost as much as you Cody! I love stuff like this.

[@matthewgarrison644]

It's awesome seeing the care you put into everything!

[@mpezzi]

I'd be interested to see some forklift maintenance videos.

[@dsmoov2]

Great find! Turns out it was in nicer shape than you thought. I love when that happens!

[@andyh230]

Definitely enjoying this. Ready to see some more and can't wait until it's operational.

[@JesseePDX]

I enjoy you passion...thanks for bringing us along on your life adventure

[@SouthWestIron]

Glad you got that sand out. I've replaced a brass pump on a skid unit similiar to this. The vanes of the pump have tight clearances and once they are worn its an expensive repair.

[@danryan3146]

Nice find! It should do a good job keeping your cedars watered...and you can draw from your (Mrs. Wranglerstar's) new pond!

[@claypigeon001]

Always something interesting from Cody...looking forward to seeing the rest of the restoration 😀

[@bjt3150]

That came out very well Amazing what a quick buff or polish can do to a old item Can not wait to see the restored tank running

[@jakejones5991]

Been waiting to see what this thing was!

[@rsrrhino]

Nice find. Looking forward to seeing the finished product.

[@MightyMorphinMatt]

So on point with the armor-all being hated by automotive painters. I know of a few shops that wont even allow cars that have tire shine on their tires into their shops because of the silicone oil.

[@Russworld1]

Awesome , can't wait to see to completed restoration. Well done.

[@TroyFronczek]

I love watching the old videos

[@johnallan1871]

It looks like the labor/cost involved is working in your favor. Great to see. Fun project!

[@jasondykstra5985]

Looking forward to seeing this fine piece of fire suppression run ! Awesome project

[@IamSmurfadelis]

Thank you for sharing this with us.

[@mjmcomputers]

That cleaned up really nice.

[@kevinbodiford7143]

you should give the inside a coat of fiber glass resin. it should make your level sides a bit more clear and increase the tank's longevity.

[@jamesbeck9301]

Nice project Cody, a little automotive headlight restoration gel would make that sight window better than new.

[@derrickfinau1152]

All of your stuff is great! I always love watching!!

[@tonytheman5776]

"How do you like that safety sally?" LOL

[@fireballmalone1]

I am pretty excited about the limited edition T-shirt. Just ordered one. Great idea, great channel.

[@michaelkaylor6770]

Love hearing the ram pump work!

[@bgrizz1000]

Love it! This is an awesome project.

[@thiscouldntblowmore]

Turning out really nice!

[@thismaineliving]

Hahaha LMAO!!! Literally I burst out laughing at "How do you like that Safety Sally"

[@TheGrizzlyHillbilly]

cant wait to see the rest keep up the good work and God bless.

[@CTRLaltKNIFE]

you know its a good tool if its held tougher with lots of sturdy bolts and nuts

[@StephenHale1776]

Put LED light in tank so you can see water level at night

[@Ajicles]

Could wet sand and buff the window back out to a mirror finish. Since you do have a buffer.

[@Saladanacional]

I hope see this project finished! Keep going! it`s so amazing!

[@apprenticerj5245]

Very cool Mr. Wranglerstar thanks for sharing.

[@cameronmcpeak5183]

Oerhaps a small plug in the lid so you can put a flashlight/waterproof light in for the water level during nighttime use

[@RoguePreparedness]

Love it! Great job!!!

[@Hellbringerspvp]

I enjoy the taunting of the Safety Sallies. haha Keep it up

[@sundrop27]

Looks great!

[@patriots1needed]

Outstanding!

[@MrCheckitout123]

nice find, would love to get one of these on flat bed trailer. fire call, great for mop up and maybe inital attack on small wildland fire, illgeal burn pile. etc. home defense as well. early on, a 200gal can do alot of damage....focus, focus, do not envy another mans toys....lol

[@chillaxter13]

Still think you should have added the tube style water gauge, maybe with a small plastic bead/ball as a secondary or low light system. You can even get them in glow in the dark. Looks really good so far though!

[@Stenkish]

For us over 20y old guys finding these things is just like Christmas for kids... I've found lots of "old" and "dead" Radio amplifiers from trash bins... Brought them home and after spending between 5-15€ on parts, they're fully functional again... Dumpster diving can give you a lot of cool stuff

[@270guy]

Thanks for the video. I was waiting for you to say,"Luke I am your Father" a couple of times though lol!

[@michaelwilson4339]

Its amazing what a little TLC can do

[@rumplover1]

I try to watch every video. It seems to me it has ben a LONG time since I have seen you in this particular shop. I say that because I believe I noticed again the BSA up in the racking? I have been wondering about that beauty since I first saw it. I believe that was the apple cider press restoration video series? Anyway, any info on that would be awesome. At least from my perspective. Keep up the good work and videos!

[@Corndoggeh1]

That enamel paint must have been a joy scrubbing off your skin and hair, it does not come off without a fight.

[@cybersecretary]

A little elbow grease...that paint cleaned up awesome!

[@mattboerio]

With all respect and love, DROUGHT IN CALIFORNIA. hope you put that water on Mrs. W's spring garden.

[@ConstanceCornelia]

More please!

[@jorgeconcheyro]

Hey Cody, what if you fill that section (the one with the water level) with some orange ping pong balls so you can see them floating from the outside... ? Thanks for sharing!!!!

[@deeryme7690]

Jorge Concheyro What a great idea!

[@jorgeconcheyro]

garygsp3 Don't think so... If you look at the bottom, you'll see the conection between sections is smaller than a poing pong ball. If you look at the pipe is not that close to the bottom, so I think the level is never going to be that low, and anyways I could wrap the balls in some sort of net avoiding spread. I'm not sure if the level is so visible though. None of these actualy matters because Cody already closed and sealed the tank hahahahhaaa. Thanks for you comment garygsp3 !!!

[@manacademy964]

+garygsp3 cleaver idea I have same tank on my type 6 engine and my concern would be plugging a bulkhead fitting. I've found the Level window to be surprisingly easy to read . can be a challenge in some lighting conditions though

[@FlannelAcres]

"Ah, I'm just gonna rattle can it." :-)

[@stephenvandyke4084]

Awsome project

[@twotonanchor]

Used one many and many a time. Sweet find.

[@danielr.schafer9504]

HeeyCody I saw you were at the rebuildit and you picked up a large fitting and to me it looked like a pump intake filter! If I recall it was the show when Miss W came back from Chicago, Ya might go back to see if it's there....sorry I don't watch Your videos in order but this fitting looked like just the thing for filtering stuff from entering your tank. Cheers' Dan

[@lancedaniels]

Glad to see this piece of equipment getting refurbished. Really a well made article.

[@DocLarsen44]

I am so glad you decided to NOT use the sight glass. I was going to recommend polycarbonate for its strength and HIGHLY recommend trying to find a metal shroud to protect it as well. The big issue with a sight glass is that it is a single point of failure: once its integrity is compromised your tank is out of commission until it is repaired. Not to mention that you saved a good bit of money; I'm guessing the two bulk head fittings cost you close to $50.

[@philiphilton2121]

Both parts. VERY INTERESTING.

[@dirtysalmonchaser]

Awesome!

[@Tinius]

I hauled smooth bore tankers... Baffles = Amazing

[@hartstudebakerkid]

What were you thinking....You can always add a capilarily tube by using a T from the existing bulkhead at the bottom of the tank.

[@conradkelly8101]

I can't believe you got red paint on those poor defenseless blades of grass that will unnecessarily die due to inability to photosynthesize

[@dzlfreek]

ebay is a good source for auto paint on the cheap. Single stage paint kits can be had for around 100 bucks a gallon

[@107retired]

Made to last!!!! Those things need to be extremely rugged to handle the elements and abuse of forest firefighting. What a great project! Looks much better just washed!! Enjoying!

[@trevorholland2134]

You can buff that site glass back clear just like you did the paint but with wet sanding

[@rickswildhorses]

I grew up in Paint and Body shop business my dad had, Man do I know about armor all and sun of a gun!!!

[@mikeduffy8229]

That is a great find

[@mukymik6414]

Nice one sir, you keep hitting these jackpots, what is going to be next?

[@sadjst]

i am very very new to your channel, and even tho i am not an handy man (i'd sure love to be one, tho) i love this kind of video, and watching your videos got me to another channel via suggested videos on the left, the other channel is basically a kid (i think he's 14-16) who shows how to recycle plastic and metal scraps to build crossbows, slingshots, knives, he does metal casting and even tho i will never do something like that (i just don't find slingshots that interesting) i love seeing powertools and creativity in action, both on your and his channel. just wanted to share that thought :)

[@dpeagles]

Awesome.

[@thekeith1221]

You could easily calculate the volume of water those marks correspond to by calculating the internal volume and converting that to gallons?

[@EdwardZNorton]

How do you have so much water to effectively waste, I can only imagine that there was somewhere near 25 or 30 gallons of water for the sight test of the fill level, and then all the washing of it, do you have a spring or a well or are you connected to the nearest city water plant?

[@EminHVAC]

Cody can you not pipe in a inline strainer just before the suction of the pump to protect it.

[@swart112]

We have a forklift operator, his nickname is 3 toe. Guess why!!! Great video thanks for sharing.

[@RaoulThomas007]

Classic Snap-On air ratchet! I missed the safety concern. I'll watch again!!

[@phooesnax]

Allot of food grade tankers do not have baffles so a milk truck can be scarier than a gasoline truck.

[@MrSamm88]

Im so glady you didn't go with rattle cans. As soon as I saw the glossy finish after the box was powerwashed I cringed when I heard rattle can.

[@jasondykstra5985]

Don't be discouraged about the treehouse build it will happen in time Patients is good for everyone

[@coondogprepper]

I wonder if the "tape" is luminescent to see in low light?

[@williammaines6302]

you should buff the inside of the sight glass to clear it up

[@bignose880]

Naive question, how does an angle grinder differ from a buffer? In a pinch could you put a buffing pad on an angle grinder?

[@mrmatt1365]

Is the yellow Jeep a future project?

[@Soulman-lb3gg]

Red Rider7 Superfan.

[@107retired]

+Red Rider7 got THAT right!!!

[@budmoore8144]

great video

[@sacredumbrella]

Genuinely surprised with no water waste-drought comments.

[@NerfNinja1610]

Wranglerstar can you do some more videos on the tree house project. Thanks.

[@benjaminbriggs6754]

56 bolts is nothing in the Navy we had 13 buttons on the dress blues just to take a loss

[@107retired]

mini-golf golf balls!

[@aarpaz]

Is that a fire pager on your belt loop?

[@Traderjoe]

Can you put a waterproof light inside to further illuminate the water through the fiberglass window? Like an LED, powered by the battery that powers the hose reel?

[@001tonbushcrafting]

did i just hear Cody say good enough

[@Graveltrucking]

You wouldn't want to paint that you would re gel coat it if you wanted it red again, paint doesn't stick to fiber glass unless you use etching primer. Getting all those lid bolts tightened evenly would be a tedious task. It is a well built tank it would take a person a long time to build it being its all hand laid.

[@JEC11718]

LxWxH÷231=gallons for the size of the tank for how much water it will hold, I don't read all the comments but someone might of already said it

[@JoshKilen]

what are you going to do about the old engine and water pump?

[@RodRosenberg]

Very nice! What is the status of the John Deere 40C sitting in the back of the shop?
