Losing £10.000 an hour and I haven’t got a clue what I’m doing!!! No pressure then 😅

[@robertjones7656]

Chris if you dont have a tap get a bolt, with a grinder cut two grooves along the length of the thread you now have a thread cleaning tap😎

[@mattsilver8519]

That postman pat and Thomas the tank engine story 😂😂😂😂😂👌👌👌👌

[@graemebell8242]

100% makes sense Chris explains it. No wonder the royal mail is in a mess when pat is living it up like a king with helicopters and trains and all sorts. He's just 1 man. Back in our day pat was a struggler

[@stuartreadman118]

Spot on

[@JonDingle]

Captain Pugwash, The Clangers and the usual Disney stuff of the 1970's. Still great fun to watch.

[@chox2001]

At a push you can cut some flutes down a high tensile bolt with a cutting wheel on the grinder, it’s like a makeshift tap to re thread it 🤷‍♂️👍

[@PAYNEKILLER..]

My Father always use to say, "As long as you do/ did your best you have nothing to worry about" amazing what that's carried me through in 40 years. The secret is you have to try your best at all times to make it work though 😆

[@jerrypruden887]

I was a maintenance electrician for a steel mill. I worked on straddle cranes that used joysticks for control. We had a run of breakdowns and all due to joystick failures. One of or shift electricians had taken it upon himself to lubricate the controllers, unfortunately he used penetrating oil in a spray can which ended up taking the lithium grease out of the bearings. Glad we stopped him before he did the whole fleet. I appreciated him being proactive but he cost us a fortune.

[@kevinforster2474]

Great video Chris, a good tip I was shown is to put a slit down the old bolt thread with a grinder to turn it into a tap to Clean the thread up.

[@arran8440]

Chris, you are doing an amazing job! I’ve been following you for about a month now and watched many of your earlier blogs! I too am in the game fixing construction plant and I love your energy and positive nature! Many times we have all done that 5 minute job that has taken a whole day when someone has used a gun and cross threaded something before we have turned up! Keep making these recordings mate, I hope someone from the tele sees these as you would be excellent on a tv show doing something like Fred Dibnah did!

[@davidredding1529]

Postman Pat rant 😂😂 I am with you Chris. No wonder the price of a stamp is through the roof. We are paying for Pats Helicopter and SCS plane.

[@jimmyquinn9639]

Another lovely job Chris 🚛🚛🚛🚚🚚🚚⭐️⭐️⭐️👏👏👏👍👍👍

[@eddiereichel9354]

17:21 IV done it myself but in a pinch when you don't have a tap but you have extra bolts. Take a angle grinder and cut the threads perpendicular to the length of the bolt. This works to give. Bolt an edge to cut the thread. I'm sure if you Google tap made from bolt

[@almaxx9680]

Yes Chris it was the grease making it squeak You blasted it with de greaser 👍😲 sorted 🤣

[@stefanobio7045]

Jolly good show Chris.... Stay safe and take care, Best regards to you and your family. Stefano.

[@ManxAndy]

Afternoon Chris……I’m with you on the kids tv back in the day, Saturday mornings were ace, best of any era, proper kids tv…..and yes, with a solid story behind them……👍🇮🇲😜

[@maffil356]

I was visiting family and we went to get my niece, mid sports day and she had no idea I was going....They were doing the usual chuck a bean bag in a circle then it got to the sprints from the lines of the court....I remember one kid crossing the line DEAD last and he was going "but I won right?" and the teacher said "yeah you came first last" and he was BUZZING! got his little medal and everything - His dad was not so kind...."There's no such thing as first last mate, you lost." haha! Love how the content has evolved Chris you're a natural :)!

A classic episode in the struggle of life 👍

[@Professional-struggler]

😂😂🤠

[@granttamboline1876]

Heard a soccer mom yelling at her kid once “second place is the first loser!” Little too competitive for 10 year olds. Like you said try hard but have fun also. Can get competitive later when they are older. Keep up the Struggle! Cheers🍻!!

[@stephenrook2522]

Well done Chris working on something you've never done before,but you smashed it MFI.Stay safe matey bravo

[@tomcobblie6328]

Chris, A tip or two moving forward. Those M24 bolt your 'struggling' with are probably not cross threaded but the threads have picked up on each other. What's needed is some proper good lubricant like an anti-seize Cooper slip. This will not only allow disassembly but look after the threads on both components and reduce the said problem, but using decreased will only promote the problem. Hope this is useful and keep up the good work 👍

[@Davidthomasv8]

Great video Chris it's a pleasure to watch

[@nushooz6731]

Brilliant 👏 what a good bunch of guys getting stuck in you can't do enough for a good gaffer.

[@johnwelburn9966]

The cross thread struggle it's never ending,those jobs usually arise when it's pouring with rain and blowing a gale,Postman Pat is probably on strike

[@mickkilby5419]

Could not agree with you more about postman pat chris used to sit with my kids watching Thomas and posty pat 🤣👍

[@daylehopkins1662]

You’d be the Stephen hawking of mechanics if you lost your legs 😂😂 love the realism 💯👨‍🌾

Hi Chris, wow thats some "fix it" spray !! That waste processor machine is a beast but just shows how quickly it comes unstuck if not checked or maintained. I'm sure those bolts and tolerances. They seem a great bunch of lads too. Everyone mucking in and carrying on regardless to help. Keep safe, G🙏👍🏻

Another great video has always chris 👍

[@drummerboygrouch]

How goes it matey?! Those Unthas shredders are a pain in the ass! Do a good job though. Find out if they are hard facing those cutting teeth and blades before they put them in? They'll get a lot of extra use out of them. Also, those bolts and fixings cost a bloody fortune for OE so not surprised they've been putting any old crap in. Lol

[@vanmanremovals]

That Thomas the tank engine analogy got me 😂 🚂 love it.

[@Pro2eus]

If you need a field tap , but only have a spare bolt. If you use an angle grinder and cut a little tapered notch vertically. and bingo, instant thread chaser.

I don’t think I’ve laughed as hard at a KZbin video ever! 😂😂😂
