Vintage Sprinkler, Ozark Bonsai’s Surprise Gifts and Making a Useful Shop Tool

[@ozarkbonsai7838]

So happy you enjoyed the boxes. No one more deserving than you. You have taught me so many things on this channel. Tub O Towels, 50/50, the Dake, light bulbs.. Have a great week John. Waiting for the next video.

[@ScoutCrafter]

Can’t thank you enough for the fantastic stuff. That truly is the gift that keeps on giving. 😃👍

[@OldSneelock]

That is some nice walnut. Pen makers would love it. My sons friend asked if I could make some muddlers for his wedding gifts for his groomsmen. I had to figure out what they were first. They are used to crush herbs like mint into drinks. I don't drink so it was new to me. I had picked up some walnut from the firewood pile that they had at a local gas station. I got a bundle of kiln dried 1 and 2" slabs of beautiful dark walnut similar to what you got. Counting the prototypes I ended up making about 30 all total. It was a fun project. The sprinkler is really nice. It is hard to find one that isn't all beat up.

[@ScoutCrafter]

I remember you turning those but I didn’t know you got the wood from a firewood pile! 😃👍

[@WeekendShedHead]

Hi John, amazing to see that the twin filament bulbs haven’t changed in design in all these years, although different voltage.. fantastic turning and counter sink 🙌love the black gloves 😂👌 cheers Rob

[@johnkelley9877]

The sprinkler looks beautiful! It is great when you can restore an item using common household items. I can see new screwdriver handles from the wood in the future. Thanks for sharing this.

[@joeheilm]

Wow, that sprinkler is a real gem it cleaned up better than i ever imagined. Cheers

[@ScoutCrafter]

Believe it or not Joe your early sprinkler restoration video got me hooked. 😃👍

[@westhighlandsshop]

Hi John, those countersink hand tools are awesome! Carrie hooked you up with the goods for sure. Excellent job on the sprinkler, can't wait to see that one in action. How about a sprinkler show in this summer? My favs are the old tractor ones.

[@TheKidFromYTown]

That sprinkler looks so good I don't know if I would want to use it now! 🤓👍

[@LoStivale]

That sprinkler really pops now. The countersinks you made came out great and very useful. Spring can’t come soon enough.

[@paulsworkshop4179]

Great looking sprinkler! Awesome goodies there as well. Maybe try a cleanup on that Hess tyruck.

[@michaellindsay8934]

Great episode. That walnut and the blubs are fantastic gifts. Nice job on the counter sinks. Thanks for sharing John

[@thewise3551]

I hope that home depot sign doesn’t break 😂✈️

[@ontools]

Those countersinks turned out really nice 👍

[@Garland77]

I could smell that walnut when you were turning it!

[@ScoutCrafter]

Does walnut have a distinctive smell? I wear a mask and have dust collection on so I didn’t smell anything. I’m always afraid of toxicity of certain dark woods. I do love turning cedar though, love that smell! 😃👍

[@jimronchetto8592]

Those are some real treasures from Carrie. I just subscribed to her channel. Great show again, John!

[@mraamohamed]

Good job on the cleanup, now we wait to see how it looks on the lawn....

[@357magdad]

Those countersink tools came out great!

[@janderson8401]

I believe Ford was the last US auto maker to switch to 12 volt electrical systems. My uncle bought a 55 T Bird that was 6 volt. He put an 8 volt battery in and adjusted the voltage regulator to improve the reliability without drastically altering the car.

[@ScoutCrafter]

My 51 Pontiac was 6v and it always cranked like it was dying. 🫣😂👍

[@larryborkstrom3580]

Nice things she gave you the counter sinks are great thing to make

[@danohstoolbox]

Hello John, Happy Monday

[@bigvicsworkshop]

Been jealous of many items you've received over the years but that box of walnut takes the cake! Very nice!! Enjoyed the turning!! And The lion packaging is just awesome!

[@drivesalot0063]

Wow! Ms. Carrie treated you very well! That box of walnut and vintage bulbs is over the top! Nice job on the vintage sprinkler. I made a few notes on your clean up procedure. They will be helpful. I'll be sure to check out Ozark Bonsai. Have a great week, Scout. 👍

[@edwardschwenk3100]

I'm quite sure Chevy trucks used a bulb that was very similar to those 1154 bulbs you were showing, but undoubtedly were a 12 V bulb by the time I was driving. In 1982, I bought my first pickup truck as a high school kid, and it was a used 1977 Silverado. The bulb looked exactly like those, but if I can remember right, I think the number was an 1157. The pegs sticking out on the copper part were offset so the bulb could only go in one way, as to not mix up tail light, and brake light current. G.M. must have used bulbs like that for many decades.

[@ScoutCrafter]

Ed You are spot on- Same bulb different voltages. Back in the day when you could change your bulb in a tail light for .59 cents…. Today it isn’t so easy. 🫣😂👍

[@truthreigns7]

That is some great looking walnut wood. You did a great job on making the counter sink tool holders. I have never yet seen you mess up on anything. Always a great work, even if you have to use the 3 foot rule. Thank you for sharing and for the flag image

[@ScoutCrafter]

That 3 foot rule really helps! 😂👍

[@truthreigns7]

@ScoutCrafter oh yes.

[@johnroberts7280]

Another good one John.

[@beerdrinker6452]

You are an artist. Nice video.

[@alexstools]

The lamps made me think, how is the hunt for a nice model A going?

[@ScoutCrafter]

Alex- I haven’t been looking as I have to get my garage in order and also my small tractor. 🫣😂👍

[@GaelYonnet]

Those countersink tools look absolutely beautiful!

[@bigfootscave445]

I plead the 5th on how long it's been since I saw a sprinkler like that let alone one so nice looking. Wow. That lot of bulbs are cool, the older boxes were so much better looking. Those hand countersink look great this was a busy video for sure...

[@MrDoeboy356]

Wow love that walnut stock.

[@Uwannawatch]

John, you just made our day! The wife and I have a deep appreciation of lawn/garden sprinklers and have quite a collection of them! We didn't think anyone else appreciated them like us! Do Not ask Chrissy about them or gardening she won't stop talking about it once she starts! 😅😅 very nice gift from Carrie. The counter sinks came out fantastic!

[@ScoutCrafter]

George- There aren’t to many things that always bring joy to us more than the humble lawn sprinkler. Sitting on the porch on a hot summer’s day with a glass of lemonade watching the sprinkler spinning on the lawn and if you’re lucky having a Robin stop by for a shower. Good times! 😂👍

[@Uwannawatch]

@@ScoutCrafter Damn John. that was poetic, I envision myself on your porch. 😂. Seriously it is one of those simple joys.

[@flyerbob124]

Could not find Ozark bonsai channel. You tube search came up with all kinds of bonsai tree channels.

[@ScoutCrafter]

Yes- Look in the description there is a link. 😃👍

[@redneckerson8906]

@@ScoutCrafter Apologies, but I don't know what you mean by "in the description". I can't find the Osarks Bonsai link either.

[@garypannone7755]

Scout, You collect everything. lol

[@ScoutCrafter]

They say if you have three or more of anything it’s a collection. 😂👍

[@garypannone7755]

@@ScoutCrafter Beautiful job.

[@andyc972]

Thanks John, the sprinkler looks great I'm sure that would have been fine for Georges challenge despite the copper hue, I've not seen one like that before, it'll look great with the sunlight glinting off the polished metal, I do like the spinning ones though, nothing says hot summers day like the sound of a lawn sprinkler ! Thanks also to Carrie for all the great items sent over, I love the old NOS boxes too I've got a couple like that (GE) from a family shed clear out about 30 years ago and they were old then !

[@ScoutCrafter]

I too like the animated sprinklers better! 😃👍

[@patrickrhin9152]

Hey ! John vraiment un très beau nettoyage de cet article. Alors les vieilles ampoules sont superbes. Et le bois, c'est cadeaux, la réalisation des deux manches pour les outils sont superbes. Du très beau travail John. ❤

[@Resto-Rob]

Awesome! Love the walnut.

[@madamecampsalot6384]

Sprinkler is beautiful! Love, love, LOVE those walnut handles.

[@pjb1985]

That’s a nice lot of walnut!

[@larrynelson734]

Hi John. Great video again. You got some great things from that young lady. Great job on that walnut. That sprinkler looks looks great. You have a great day. 👍👍❤...

[@setdown2]

Sprinkler came out like new…that box of hardwood is perfect for any type of tool handle…looks like walnut it has open grain which if you fill with shellac then sand off all the open grain will be filled and you will be able to get a ultra smooth finish…if desired…beautiful stuff…🖖

[@805ROADKING]

I hope you had your Safety Glasses on when you were messing with the Phosphoric Acid!! That's nothing to play with, you need to set a good example for the Kiddies!!☻

[@ScoutCrafter]

At my age I can’t see anything without my glasses on! 😎👍

[@Dalesworkshop]

I have a hand held Wand for watering plants made in England. It is Brass and Copper I think. I will be doing it soon to find out. Good video. You can make lots of handles with that wood.

[@ko2fjb]

That lawn sprinkler is really nice, did you spray it to keep it from tarnishing again. Those countersinks came out awesome.

[@ScoutCrafter]

Fred- Clear lacquer is great for keeping Brass shiny however under certain instances it can flake, chip or peel. I believe water sprinkler action is one of them. 🫣😂👍

[@ko2fjb]

@ScoutCrafter that will be nice on a hot summer day for the birds.

[@evilla410]

Hi John, those countersink looks great 👍

[@stevenwitt4028]

Great video 👍 That vintage sprinkler turned out Fantastic! Those plastic blades really did a great job not scratching the surface and also that prep and etch was fantastic in removing that old tarnish. You got some great stuff in the mail 📭📦. Those vintage light 💡 boxes with the original light bulbs was really cool to see. I like the old vintage graphics on the boxes ,really cool! 👍 Wow, that Walnut wood 🪵 looked fantastic! Those two countersink tools you made using the walnut wood turned out Amazing! 👍 They would be a useful tool to have in the shop . Again awesome Job! 👍👍 That cartoon was funny 😂. I think I remember that vintage sprinkler, you had that one on the show I believe, great seeing that one in action. Great shot of Old Glory 🇺🇸 whipping in the wind. Well again great video and can’t wait to see what you do on Wednesday. Have a great evening. 😄👍👍

Hay John I used to operate that type of tanker, Shipfaye, pulling duck hams oil out of Swansea and Llandarci , I’ll find a photo

[@ScoutCrafter]

Reggy- My Dad too! He drove that same tanker hauling #6 fuel oil for commercial buildings! 😃👍

[@tomdale1313]

[@TheDasbull]

The vintage auto bulbs are very cool! I'm an old car guy, and the old style bulbs are expensive now - and quality is really not good. Great video!

[@stephendoherty1275]

Awesome.

[@timeflysintheshop]

Do you think walnut would make a good hammer handle?

[@ScoutCrafter]

@@timeflysintheshop - It would look good but wouldn’t compare to hickory. No shock absorption. 😃👍

[@joeschulz7997]

Nice work with the sprinkler, wood turning, and counter sink tools. Your viewet ate very generous. 😄👍🏻🇺🇲

[@Reggyontheroad]

Gotcha 👍👍🔩🔩👀👀🫵🫵

[@troyb1733]

John the sprinkler and countersinks are awesome. What a nice lady to set you up with all those goodies. It is 50 here today in Omaha. John what is a "MAZDA LAMP" A type? or a Size to go in a headlite.

[@ScoutCrafter]

Mazda like Westinghouse was a brand. 50 in Omaha! Sweet!!!! 😃👍

[@truthreigns7]

11:33 Hey John, you used an image from Paul Shinn's video, cool. He is a great Model A vehicle guy.

[@ScoutCrafter]

Paul is the BEST! The best part is Paul’s channel was stuck at 49K subscribers for a long time and I asked our group to help get him over 50K and within a few hours he hit the magic 50k subscribers! Paul and his wife Tina are just awesome!!! 😃👍

[@truthreigns7]

@ScoutCrafter okay cool. Yes I do agree

[@McLark7176]

“Slight collection” of sprinklers (insert side-eye dog here) 😂

[@AndyM.]

OBI WON!!! Carrie sooooooooooooooo hooked you up!!!!!!!!

[@Dardrum]

This whole video is great, but I had to laugh at the sprinkler. My parents had one just like it in the 50's, It would crack and squirt water out in different locations, (all the wrong locations) and my dad would solder them up, It ended up being a Frankenstein sprinkler. The chances of throwing something out was not on the menu lol.

[@ScoutCrafter]

😂😂😂. Those pinhole sprinklers were good for small gardens as you could put it in the garden and use low pressure to saturate the dirt. For lawns animated sprinklers were the best! 😂👍

[@billmccabe9601]

BAMM! Just like that, 357 Magdad and his Mascot Chuck have something to aim for in George's Classy Brass Challenge. Very nice dedicated countersinks.

[@lotsatrains]

Awesome woodworking and really great tools that you made so nice to have sent that wood 🪵 awesome 👍

[@netherkevin]

I believe that "Mazda," as in "Westinghouse Mazda," is pronounced with a short "a" (and not like the Japanese car manufacturer). My source is the song "The Glow-Worm:" 🎵You've got a cute vest-pocket Mazda That you can make both slow and faster Love the walnut-handled countersink tools!

[@tonylenge424]

Good show! Like the copper sprinkler and what a nice package from your viewer. Thanks
