Apprentice Gets Schooled on Proper Wrench Usage During a Heating Service Recall

[@plumbingplumbing6429]

Nice how you show him I learn the hard way when I was 22 am 46 now but the more he learns hands on he will get better 👍💪

[@blavokinbutcher9163]

Mikey Pipes, what did I do different? Crush the threads! Love the videos!

[@mph5896]

Ha, I thought the same. Really should not affect the use of it, but. 🤣

[@Samlol23_drrich]

What you showed him with those two pump pliers Is basically how you hold and remove router bits. Much easier to push than pull. You place wrench one holding the base and wrench 2 on the collet you want to loosen. Engage them so they are able to be gripped with one hand, and then squeeze them together with one hand. That usually breaks them free. One hand squeezing is stronger than 2 pushing together.

Great video, as always Mikey! Peter, the man of many words, it’s just to hard to get upset with him because he’s such a nice, respectful, well-rounded kid! ✋😎🤚 “If your born with a pole your a 👦, if born with a hole your a 👧”

[@annabellnikolaus3610]

This video is gift for making people comfortable

[@FHES2005]

I see Peter was struggling with the expansion tank. But over time of watching the videos I feel Peter gets nervous and pressure when he's being watched over with that said I think he's very capable doing things but he just got to overcome his being pressured

[@cerysatkins8812]

That’s amazing! Love shots like this!!!

[@bennymoz3091]

Mikey you are the best in the west coast... 💪💪💪

[@BigPowerAL]

Nice lesson right there! Well done!

[@jkbrown5496]

Pushing together not only uses the leverage but makes the wide handles less of a problem.

[@karlschoen7297]

I kept on cringing trying to reach in and help him but you did a great job love the fish comment laugh my ass off would love to grab a couple of those cards the video skit was hilarious too

[@ignacio8597]

Watching Steve Lav and your videos, I have to say Northeastern customers are the most laid back, cool people. You can actually be yourself and bullshit with them and not have to be 100% pc. I'd say 1 out of 20 of my customers I can actually fuck around with.

Hi, just wanted to tell you, I like this,.It was great keep on videoing

[@johng1077]

Not sure if anyone mentioned it’s Damien Lewis i believe was the actor from Billions whom has the red hair and is an English actor.

[@throttlebottle5906]

that cartoon video clip was funny. also "learning leverage 101" come to mind on using levers...

[@Chris_In_Texas]

11:45 Its the classic alligator jaw. They have tremendous power closing their jaw, but have no muscles trying to open them. Same thing here, pushing your arms apart is much tougher than pushing them together. Also for Peter, don't get nervous when the camera is on you. The only person you need to be concerned with is Mike, he is trying to help you along. He might poke fun from time to time, but really he is helping you learn all these different things. 👍

[@patriciashelton9184]

Literally Outstanding!

[@mph5896]

Why no pressure relief valve on the system install in 2020?

[@brucerobak145]

I thought I heard that too in the beginning of the video. If that's so the boiler is unsafe.

[@brucerobak145]

I see from the first video of this boiler repair a pressure relief valve on the right side of the boiler, so we're good in that dept. Looks like a defective pump then should be under mfg warranty.

[@throttlebottle5906]

that was on the closed hydronic loop side of a heat exchanger and not the boiler side, which is actually steam. but yes it should have had a relief valve on that loop, lucky it didn't rupture something else in the loop.

[@abbiehenderson3814]

[@arthouston7361]

I agree with what Mike is saying about the wrench positioning...BUT, Peter was putting himself at a huge disadvantage by having the tank in the bucket and reaching down into it. His wrench contact angles were all wrong. The wrenches need to be perpendicular to the fitting axis, and Peter was more than 25 degrees away from that plane. Plus, the working elements were below his knees, and even if he could have placed the wrenches correctly, it would have taken a lot more strength to do it down low inside the bucket. If you keep your hands within your torso area for these smaller jobs, you have more power. Obviously, a pair of 36's won't be right in front of your torso, but that is because they are so large.

[@arthouston7361]

Did Peter check the pump direction? I didn't see him do that.............

[@Samlol23_drrich]

[@cjwrenches2647]

[@throttlebottle5906]

poor gauge, the pressure went to the moon and expanded the bellow(semi circular tube) and it pinned the needle. I'm betting it hit 300+psi before the pump seal let go. lucky it didn't blow apart something else in the system.

[@randyhuff1983]

He will get better when he gets some confidence. Now he acts like he is working on a nuclear weapon. He'll be ok.

[@throttlebottle5906]

I think, peter pansy handed the wrenches when tightening. lol 🤣🤣 I guess that's better than overtightening until the flange/pump ears break off and yes that's very possible before the bolts will break.

Mikey the customer was correct. You missed it. He was asking if Bobby Axe was the same red haired guy that was in jail because you mentioned he was in Homeland. That's the jail he was talking about. That show went downhill after they took him out. Shits an Giggles I watched a British show on Netflix about an MP accused of raping a girl in his office. I knew this guy looked familiar but he was all prim and proper. Holy shit it was Quinn from Homeland. It was a good series but I can't remember the name.

[@combatrock3069]

You the man saint mike!

[@Threee_Eyez]

I'm the same way, I can do a whole install without blinking my eyes with another tech, but as soon as one of my supervisors shows up and is sitting behind me with his arms crossed, I get so fucking nervous I feel like an IDIOT lol, stumbling screws, cant align anything, slipping when trying to tighten or loosen something, it gets comical after a while to be honest.

I think Peter just gets nervous around you Mikey, and also seems like hes very scared to break something so he doesn't give it the extra strength and man handle needed

That was painful to watch

[@davonmaye3123]

Teach Peter to use pliers in a manner where he’s pulling towards himself, instead of holding the pliers close to him trying to push. You get better force pulling. I notice him and Daniel doing the same when using pipe wrenches. It makes me cringe every time.

And no btc will tend down. Down to a point where hedge funds and institutions will buy in. The problem with crypto is the lack of adoption from the people who matter....hedge funds. They will have to buy but won't at these prices. It will crash down at levels that will freak people out. At that time btc then hits over 200k. Don't forget that we are actually in a recession, 2 quarters of gdp declining. The fed meeting tomorrow will tank the market when they hike rates from the expectation of 50 points to +75. Netflix is not done falling either, along with oaypal and draftkings, and pltr, and esty, and and the d and p will drop 15% the end of 2022. Buckle up folks 2008 again on roids.
