Trend, Makita, Bosch, and wurth power tool repairs.

[@DaveO-te1iv]

Saturday night and a new video from Dean. Time to crack a cold one and enjoy!

[@joelkton1]

Gin, here.

[@davidsmith-ih2kk]

What always makes me feel great in the eyes of my family and people I do work for is the easy fix like a switch not working in position and you just need to scrape away the binding bit of cheap plastic, it makes you look like a wonder man when you fix these problems. I have to say I never would have thought watching someone fix and repair power tools, battery, and mains would be so engrossing. But mate, you are the tops in repairing these tools. Your channel is the Max and so engrossing. Good work through and through Dean, just great, absolutely wonderful watching your work Dean just brilliant.

[@Dustin_the_wind]

Thanks for the lesson, Dean. There is no fat in your videos, I appreciate that.

[@mickymcc7280]

Thanks for replying back Dean il have a go see if ican fix it again keep the videos coming all the best for Xmas and New year

[@charlesmott8863]

Love watching these, it is quite soothing, and informative, that and the fact you sound like Liam Neesan!

[@nathanking2439]

Great Videos Dean, keep up the good work.

[@lunatiy]

Love your videos Dean. I'd be very happy if you would consider doing comparison vids like the one with impact wrenches but about drills, grinders and other tools. I think we all learned a lot about tools watching your vids. Milwaukee is rarely viable for repair because of cost and no separate parts, their grinders have a bearing problems and overheating problems in general. Dewalt switches can be cleaned and work again instead of replacing. Battery powered saws and grinders are for "light" use etc. Tips like that in one video (or a few grinder, drill, saw, battery/corded) would be really helpful although it would be a lot of work for you...Thank you for all the vids so far... I'm thinking about buying a bigger corded right angle grinder and the Metabo 26 230 looks nice... :)

[@YTTHROWAWAYCORONA]

Hey Dean, Not sure if this helps but if you need extra leverage for that hole method you used on the router (drilling two holes when the flat head insert has been filled/stripped), you could use the spanner for an angle grinder (two bit set that’s used to change the disks). Might be too big for this but if there’s smaller ones it could be easier/less finicky. Best of luck and cheers for the vid 👍 Sam

[@ΠαναγιώτηςΣάμιος-υ5λ]

bravo mr.

[@xtender5]

Fascinating how a plastic cake pan lid costs as much or more as a complex mechanical device. What a world.

[@cyrillynch907]

Another good one .

[@sixfigures1422]

Love the content!

[@sixfigures1422]

[@fredholmes6284]

[@kevinsturgess1475]

[@jamesward5721]

You're the Irish Ave Dean. :-)

[@mickymcc7280]

Hi Dean great videos well worth watching keep them coming.iv a electric bosch multitool pmf 180 e switch it on and nothing the power leads good and power ti switch any ideas thanks

[@deandohertygreaser]

Probably a broken connection on the field or one of the wires going to the field

[@jernejloknar8011]

At 19:41 i see you cleaned up the remains of left thread screw out, maybe some info how you got that done?

[@doktorjohannessen2069]

Hi man, i just found your videos, and i love it. I always try to repair broken Tools at work and at Home. Now I want to start to buy my own Power tools. I got some really good manual tools already. Which Brands would your recommend? Im thinking about Makita, Blue Bosch or Metabo right now.

[@robinbeckford]

Trend routers used to have a good reputation. No longer, it seems - shame.

[@daviequecushnie4957]

I have 1 of that makita angle grinder and the lock pin is also busted, do u have a link on where I can buy 1, I'm from jamaica please reply

[@thedarkpigsorcerer9760]

I have a similar makita grinder, its the xag04 but its basically same as that without the variable speed, it doesnt turn on at all and the battery indicator on the grinder itself doesnt turn on either, makes me think maybe l the board is cooked? Cause everything else including switch and stator seem fine, tested the battery connector and all looks Good too. No clue what could be wrong with it really

[@oddbodhobbies2840]

What brand is your stanley knife? haven't seen one before .

[@markmawson1]

Dean i bet that Trend Router was a purchase return and then someone returned it then the shop sold it as parts or it was purchased off Amazon didn't work when got it so sent it back to Amazon and they just shot it in the skip and someone went dumpster diving got it home didn't work and thought it was brushes it wasn't so sent it in to you lol

[@tdotw77]

Dean, ive yet to see you do a pneumatic tool fix? Do you not get any air tools in to fix? I was just wondering? Happy holidays. Enjoy your time off. See ya next year.👍🏻👌🏻🔌🔋⚡💥💨⚠️🛠️🔩🔧🍻

[@kevinhewitt1428]

In all your years, have you ever worked on Holtzer? I contacted them about planer blades a few years back. The kid didn't know that they made hand held tools decades ago.

[@Marcus3.14]

Have you ever repaired a Bosch GBH 12-52 D (or DV version) hammer? I’ve always wondered how they compare to the GBH 8-45 internally.

[@markmawson1]

If a customer brought in for repair 2 exactly the same Model Makitas or any other grinders or drills for that matter and one needed a controller and one needed a field would you suggest they purchase a field and controller then split them to fix both machines or would you just say not viable to repair?

[@markmawson1]

I absolutely love your long videos by the way keep them coming.

[@kittsdiy]

19:31 part of the screw is stil in de shaft .. 20:16 new screw in shaft .. not showing how you removed tha part of the old screw ??

[@BobB-j9w]

How did you learn to fix power tools

[@biggels1990]

Can’t believe that router not working because of the case not fitting properly 🤦🏻‍♂️ unbelievable

[@MrSteviegall]

cheeky fuck, i went to the bother of replacing my speed controller on my t4 and in 3-4 months it completely lay down, it was only ever routering out hinges, since that ive stuck with makita

[@michaelfairchild]

When working on Bosch tool he use Makita drill, but when working on Makita he use Bosch impact.

[@alouisschafer7212]

It always struck me as very odd that Würth decided to go to Bosch and have them make tools for them that are identical to Bosch but in a Black housing and branded Würth. Wouldnt you want to buy the real deal? I mean people have got to know its Bosch.

[@roberttdubel]

Who makes the best tools . You probably never answered that one lol

[@deandohertygreaser]

Every brand has its own good tools and bad tools. But I find makita and dewalt have some of the bigger selections of good tools

[@jazko]

Dean, have you ever considered advocating for right to repair (meaning the government body to force companies to sell parts individually not as an assembly, so makes more tools economical to repair, rather than throw away.)

[@petrokemikal]

You cant force any company to make parts individually availible.. There not breaking any laws..

[@jazko]

@@petrokemikal I agree,, they are not. But it also doesn't make sense to sell "assemblies", when each and every part can be sold individually? It's like having a car, and you pop one tyre and need to get all 4 new tyres. How does that make sense ? But in the case of powertools, you pop one tyre and you have to throw away your car.

[@petrokemikal]

It makes perfect sense... why sell you something for a couple of bucks, when they can either sell you an assembly or a newer model.. its our own fault anyways, we cried out that tools are too expensive, even though they could all be fixed... now we're crying because there cheap and falling apart and can't be fixed.. 😂

[@leehaz1]

Most of the tools you fix are simple fixes. How many tools are thrown away when they would cost a couple quid to fix.

[@petrokemikal]

What exactly is going on with trend..? I see there new cordless range is falling off a cliff, all there products are dirt cheap on Amazon, dirt cheap to the point of looks like there just trying to recoup the cost of the machines themselves.. I think its because there batteries are sky high prices + they didnt present enough tools at launch to convince anybody that picking up a couple of batteries would be a worthy investment.. Also nothing but bad reports of there routers, like that small barrel one, cant rember the name of it now.. But I was eyeing it up not so long ago, then I seen a few reviews and lots of complaints.. Trend used to be top stuff and quite expensive In ireland.. What are they playing at ? Change of hands at the helm maybe ?

[@jasonvandervalk3679]

I do that every night 🍺
