My name is Bre. I took two years of small engine repair at the local college. When I left school, I fell into a wonderful job at a local small engine shop where I worked the counter for a couple years. In 2010 my husband and I opened up our own small engine shop in central Arkansas where I am able to work alongside my family and best friends. We see over 2,000 pieces of small engine equipment every year, and answer 1,000's of small engine questions. We specialize in brands such as Briggs and Stratton, Kohler, Echo and Shindaiwa, but work everyday on MANY other brands like Stihl, Husqvarna, Honda, Craftsman, Remington, Red Max, Troy Bilt, Scag, Bad Boy, Hustler, World Lawn, Poulan, Mantis, Etc.. Hopefully, my experience I share, will save you Time, Money and Frustration in the future!

[@geoffreysmommy]

Try shoulder surgery. My husband had his rotator, bicep, and labrum operated on. At the same time he also broke the bone at the top if his arm. The part that looks like a ball. Luckily it was non displaced. Off work nine months. Miserable for almost two years. That was in 2016 and lost 10% range of motion and still in constant pain. But low enough that he can get by without any pain pills. But actually its slowly getting worse. He's now in his 60s.

[@--_DJ_--]

@@scottreynolds1984 You will have a better chance of getting an answer if you post this as your own comment rather than under someone else's. I'll give it a shot though. I assume you mean flywheel keys rather than a pin, but I am a truck mechanic not small engine so I have no idea what is out there in single cylinder land. Is the flywheel a tight fit on the shaft? If the key keeps breaking and the flywheel spins on the crank it could wear it so the flywheel is loose. That would break keys off very quickly with no load. Is the key the right size? Is the flywheel bolt the right length? If it bottoms out before the flywheel seats it would torque fine but the flywheel would be loose. Maybe missing a washer? There could be a crack in the flywheel bore. Is your torque wrench accurate?

Let me edit my comment so that those folks that don’t understand what I am saying will have a correct and better understanding . I forgot to write to the lowest common denominator.

You for your new adventure and him for his surgery and full recovery.

For those of y’all that got it the first time, thank you.

many hip problems as well as knee and ankle issues are from having duck feet. i spent the last year and a half slowly fixing my duck feet that was giving me serious pain on my inside hip area. to see if you have duck feet stand straight up with your feet together take 1 dozen or so steps looking straight ahead. stop walking and without moving your feet or legs look down at your feet. if your feet are pointing outward you have duck feet.

Thanks Chickanic. My dad’s hip pain actually originated from stenosis in his spine. They were saying he might need a new hip. But his spine issue was more pressing. They did stenosis surgery on the nerve tunnels two spine vertebrae and after his surgeries, his hip problems went away! I’ve had two laser spine surgeries two months apart. It was outpatient surgery! Couldn’t walk going into the surgery. Then walked out of surgery three hours later.

I wanted to thank you! I watched your one video on not using can mixed gas on small engines one of my friends wanted me to fix his blower and after a couple days I remembered that video and got it running so thank you very much

[@kbjerke]

Bless you, Bre. I wish you all the best and improved health for your hubby. ❤‍🩹

[@randallcorbello2857]

First of all, I hope your husband success with hip replacement. My prayers are with y’all and thank you from the bottom of my heart for sharing these videos. I’ll be looking for y’all in the future may God bless ya’ll

I have enjoyed watching your videos for a while now and am sad to see that you have to endure this move. I have been involved in the moving of a warehouse twice and it is a royal PITA. The improvements after each of those moves were phenomenal and well worth the effort. Here's hoping that Ron's situation improves and you move along nicely from all of this!

[@tariel66]

I am small business person and congratulate you on your decision, You go girl! I have been one of your followers and endorse you to the Nth degree. I am so glad that you will still be here to help us out! Bon chance!

I'm so sorry to hear that you are closing your shop, but so glad that you will continue offering videos about fixes and tips for DYIers. I have learned SO much from your videos. Do keep posting (once you get organized -- I can't imagine the chaos!). Blessings on your husband's medical procedures, and I look forward to whatever videos you can offer in the coming months.

Best of luck to you and your husband. Glad you're still going to continue the channel

Whew! I was exhausted just seeing all your inventory and the thought of relocating it all. Love your videos and wish you and Ron all the best, and lots of stamina! Hope Ron’s hip replacement goes well, too.

You have been a real help when I need to fix something. Thanks and all the best to both of you

Hi Bre. I have been watching from Canada for quite some time now, and have learned so much. The biggest lesson is not to be intimidated by daunting repair tasks. It is all very logical when explained in an entertaining video. Good luck with all of your plans with family and work. Cheers.
