1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:09,320
Welcome to Nice Ashes, I'm Nate.

2
00:00:09,320 --> 00:00:10,840
And I'm Mike.

3
00:00:10,840 --> 00:00:12,440
What are we smoking today, Nate?

4
00:00:12,440 --> 00:00:15,920
We are picking up where we left off a couple episodes ago.

5
00:00:15,920 --> 00:00:22,360
Not that last episode or the episode before that, but we are doing the Saison by Oliva,

6
00:00:22,360 --> 00:00:28,040
Oliver, and it is the first Harvest 2011 edition.

7
00:00:28,040 --> 00:00:33,260
And I'm trying to think if my memory serves, I believe this wrapper is a smidge lighter

8
00:00:33,260 --> 00:00:36,080
than the other one, the 2009, was it?

9
00:00:36,080 --> 00:00:37,600
Yes, I think so.

10
00:00:37,600 --> 00:00:38,600
Okay.

11
00:00:38,600 --> 00:00:39,600
Don't quote me on that.

12
00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:43,060
Mike, I procured myself a new cigar cutter.

13
00:00:43,060 --> 00:00:44,060
You did?

14
00:00:44,060 --> 00:00:45,060
I did.

15
00:00:45,060 --> 00:00:46,060
What kind did you get?

16
00:00:46,060 --> 00:00:55,440
It is a X-I-F-E-I, a Z-F-E, so you know it's American made.

17
00:00:55,440 --> 00:00:56,880
It's a V-cut.

18
00:00:56,880 --> 00:01:00,520
It also has a little screw out on the bottom that is a cigar punch.

19
00:01:00,520 --> 00:01:04,080
And if you set it upright, it has a cigar holder on the top.

20
00:01:04,080 --> 00:01:05,480
So it's kind of a three in one.

21
00:01:05,480 --> 00:01:06,480
It's metal.

22
00:01:06,480 --> 00:01:08,040
It's blue and gold.

23
00:01:08,040 --> 00:01:09,040
Interesting.

24
00:01:09,040 --> 00:01:10,760
Is it high quality?

25
00:01:10,760 --> 00:01:11,760
And it's a V-cut.

26
00:01:11,760 --> 00:01:13,720
Well, this is the first cigar I'm cutting with it, Mike.

27
00:01:13,720 --> 00:01:15,040
Oh, well, there we go.

28
00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:16,920
But it did make short work of this.

29
00:01:16,920 --> 00:01:23,000
And I did the Mike Cross V-cut patent pending trademark, et cetera, et cetera.

30
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:25,080
See, and I didn't do that on this one.

31
00:01:25,080 --> 00:01:26,080
So there we go.

32
00:01:26,080 --> 00:01:27,080
Interesting.

33
00:01:27,080 --> 00:01:29,080
What were your reasons for not doing that, Mike?

34
00:01:29,080 --> 00:01:30,720
It's pretty narrow gauge.

35
00:01:30,720 --> 00:01:34,080
So I was like, well, I can get away with a single.

36
00:01:34,080 --> 00:01:40,360
Like a bigger gauge cigar like the Banker, I will probably do a cross cut on.

37
00:01:40,360 --> 00:01:42,080
Not that that makes it right.

38
00:01:42,080 --> 00:01:43,080
It's just my...

39
00:01:43,080 --> 00:01:44,080
Or wrong.

40
00:01:44,080 --> 00:01:45,080
Or wrong.

41
00:01:45,080 --> 00:01:46,080
Yeah, yeah.

42
00:01:46,080 --> 00:01:48,080
What are you pairing your stick with, Mike?

43
00:01:48,080 --> 00:01:49,080
Water.

44
00:01:49,080 --> 00:01:51,520
I am so boring today.

45
00:01:51,520 --> 00:01:52,520
Just water.

46
00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:53,520
That's all right.

47
00:01:53,520 --> 00:01:54,520
I'm doing a little liquid aloha.

48
00:01:54,520 --> 00:01:57,400
I come in a big wave.

49
00:01:57,400 --> 00:01:59,400
The big wave is always a good choice.

50
00:01:59,400 --> 00:02:00,880
Yes, indeed.

51
00:02:00,880 --> 00:02:02,400
So far, I like this.

52
00:02:02,400 --> 00:02:03,960
It's a good start.

53
00:02:03,960 --> 00:02:04,960
Yeah.

54
00:02:04,960 --> 00:02:05,960
Good start.

55
00:02:05,960 --> 00:02:06,960
Nothing, nothing overpowering.

56
00:02:06,960 --> 00:02:11,120
Nothing, I guess nothing overly fabulous, but it's good.

57
00:02:11,120 --> 00:02:12,120
All right.

58
00:02:12,120 --> 00:02:17,120
I know we typically enjoy the spice, like spicy wrappers or, you know, but this one

59
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:18,560
is not that.

60
00:02:18,560 --> 00:02:21,160
It's not spicy, but it doesn't have to be either.

61
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:25,240
So I think good start so far and I'm excited to smoke the rest of it.

62
00:02:25,240 --> 00:02:30,280
I liked the 2009, so this one should be hopefully just as good, if not better.

63
00:02:30,280 --> 00:02:31,280
Right.

64
00:02:31,280 --> 00:02:32,280
And it says spice to it.

65
00:02:32,280 --> 00:02:33,840
At least I'm picking up spice.

66
00:02:33,840 --> 00:02:34,840
Maybe you're not, but...

67
00:02:34,840 --> 00:02:35,840
Oh, okay.

68
00:02:35,840 --> 00:02:36,840
Yeah, yeah.

69
00:02:36,840 --> 00:02:38,600
I didn't get any initially, but there might be some coming.

70
00:02:38,600 --> 00:02:39,600
Who knows?

71
00:02:39,600 --> 00:02:40,600
Could just be me.

72
00:02:40,600 --> 00:02:43,400
No, there's a small bit of spice there.

73
00:02:43,400 --> 00:02:45,040
Now that you mention it.

74
00:02:45,040 --> 00:02:47,280
Now that you mention it, Mike.

75
00:02:47,280 --> 00:02:48,280
Yes.

76
00:02:48,280 --> 00:02:49,280
Yes, indeed.

77
00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:50,280
Well...

78
00:02:50,280 --> 00:02:51,280
We don't...

79
00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:52,280
Oh, go ahead.

80
00:02:52,280 --> 00:02:53,280
Yeah.

81
00:02:53,280 --> 00:02:54,280
We've done this before.

82
00:02:54,280 --> 00:02:59,120
We've done an episode or two of podcast before.

83
00:02:59,120 --> 00:03:00,720
No, there's not...

84
00:03:00,720 --> 00:03:05,200
There's a very, very loose kind of like topic and it's just kind of like a project update.

85
00:03:05,200 --> 00:03:09,400
I had quite a few projects that I undertook that I thought might be interesting to talk

86
00:03:09,400 --> 00:03:16,120
about because I know I briefly mentioned on an earlier episode about my car kind of being

87
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:21,840
disassembled for a little bit and actually when Mike was here at my garage studio, I

88
00:03:21,840 --> 00:03:29,000
had the gasket valve cover or the valve gasket cover off and I had to put all of that, shove

89
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:32,580
all that stuff somewhere because it was on my workbench, which is where I record.

90
00:03:32,580 --> 00:03:35,120
And so I had to make room for Mike and myself to do our podcast.

91
00:03:35,120 --> 00:03:38,840
Do you know much about valve covers and stuff like that, Mike?

92
00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:43,360
I know basically nothing about fixing motor vehicles.

93
00:03:43,360 --> 00:03:46,920
I used to change oil when I was younger, but that's about it.

94
00:03:46,920 --> 00:03:49,960
Well, changing oil is a young man's game.

95
00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:58,400
So I have a 2004 Honda Civic and I was informed that I should probably change the spark plugs

96
00:03:58,400 --> 00:04:01,280
in it and changing spark plugs is not difficult.

97
00:04:01,280 --> 00:04:05,680
However, mine, I don't know that the spark plugs have ever been changed in my car and

98
00:04:05,680 --> 00:04:07,320
it was 2004.

99
00:04:07,320 --> 00:04:11,020
And I told somebody that and they said that they were surprised it still starts.

100
00:04:11,020 --> 00:04:15,480
So I watched the YouTube video on how to do it.

101
00:04:15,480 --> 00:04:19,840
It's a four cylinder car, but for some reason there are two spark plugs per cylinder on

102
00:04:19,840 --> 00:04:20,960
this thing.

103
00:04:20,960 --> 00:04:25,640
Every other car out there in the world, I think mostly has one spark plug per cylinder.

104
00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:27,880
So I don't know what they were thinking when they made it.

105
00:04:27,880 --> 00:04:29,640
Do they spark at the same time?

106
00:04:29,640 --> 00:04:31,080
I have no idea.

107
00:04:31,080 --> 00:04:32,080
No clue.

108
00:04:32,080 --> 00:04:33,080
I don't know.

109
00:04:33,080 --> 00:04:34,080
Interesting.

110
00:04:34,080 --> 00:04:38,600
So I got the, there's a front row and a back row of these spark plugs and I got the front

111
00:04:38,600 --> 00:04:39,600
row out.

112
00:04:39,600 --> 00:04:40,600
No problem.

113
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:44,160
So it's a spark plug on top and it's like a, like kind of a, I don't know, kind of a

114
00:04:44,160 --> 00:04:47,400
boxy, roundish, roundy boxy thing on top.

115
00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:50,680
And there's a kind of a long stem that goes down and then sits on top of the actual spark

116
00:04:50,680 --> 00:04:51,680
plug.

117
00:04:51,680 --> 00:04:56,360
And that's what delivers the electricity to the plug to ignite the fuel and all that

118
00:04:56,360 --> 00:04:57,360
stuff.

119
00:04:57,360 --> 00:04:58,360
Don't quote me on that.

120
00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:03,160
I'm not a mechanic, but I'm fairly certain that's how it works.

121
00:05:03,160 --> 00:05:08,120
And then I pulled the back four out and two of the ones in the back, just the top bits

122
00:05:08,120 --> 00:05:09,440
popped off.

123
00:05:09,440 --> 00:05:15,160
And the little stems had, cause they're plastic, they had become brittle and snapped off in

124
00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:20,160
the, in the tube or in the, the, I don't know what you would call it, the chamber.

125
00:05:20,160 --> 00:05:27,720
So I had to get, I had to get a pliers to pull this tube out of the hole, let's say,

126
00:05:27,720 --> 00:05:31,920
so that I could get the socket, the spark plug socket down there to get the plugs out.

127
00:05:31,920 --> 00:05:34,400
Well then I have two broken coil packs.

128
00:05:34,400 --> 00:05:38,600
So, and kind of my thing is, and we might've mentioned this on the show even, is anytime

129
00:05:38,600 --> 00:05:44,080
I'm doing a home project, the goal is to never go back to the home goods store, the, the

130
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:48,800
home improvement store, but it's always like a two or three extra trips to the store in

131
00:05:48,800 --> 00:05:49,800
the middle of the project.

132
00:05:49,800 --> 00:05:50,800
Right?

133
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:56,040
So I found some replacement coil packs on Amazon.

134
00:05:56,040 --> 00:06:01,800
And the moral of this story is don't trust when Amazon says this fits your vehicle, because

135
00:06:01,800 --> 00:06:04,560
the ones that I got did not fit the vehicle.

136
00:06:04,560 --> 00:06:10,640
But I was able to find the ones that did and they came, but then in two of the chambers,

137
00:06:10,640 --> 00:06:14,600
the spark plug chambers that were full of oil.

138
00:06:14,600 --> 00:06:18,880
So when I would use to accelerate, it would kind of chug a chug a, you know, but not in

139
00:06:18,880 --> 00:06:22,000
like the cool I'm a choo choo train kind of way.

140
00:06:22,000 --> 00:06:25,920
And more in the, I think this car is going to die soon kind of way.

141
00:06:25,920 --> 00:06:33,400
And apparently it's because there's a gasket on the valve cover that prevents oil from

142
00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:37,880
getting into the cylinders or the spark plug wells.

143
00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:43,640
And so I got a new gasket, which again was, even though it said it fit my car, it did

144
00:06:43,640 --> 00:06:44,640
not.

145
00:06:44,640 --> 00:06:46,800
So I had to return that and get a different one.

146
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:52,560
And then I was told by someone that I needed to get a torque wrench to put the valve cover

147
00:06:52,560 --> 00:06:54,560
plate back on, which is metal.

148
00:06:54,560 --> 00:06:59,360
And there's little gaskets on all of these, you know, like machine bolts that go in there.

149
00:06:59,360 --> 00:07:00,440
So I got the torque wrench.

150
00:07:00,440 --> 00:07:05,200
I looked up on the internet and it said something like 80 some whatevers.

151
00:07:05,200 --> 00:07:08,080
So I cranked the thing on the torque wrench.

152
00:07:08,080 --> 00:07:10,160
I cranked it to 80 whatevers.

153
00:07:10,160 --> 00:07:15,120
And the first bolt I put in promptly snapped off the head and the shank of it was stuck

154
00:07:15,120 --> 00:07:17,520
down in the block there.

155
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:23,040
So then I said, well, these bolts have a, they have like a collar, so they only go so

156
00:07:23,040 --> 00:07:24,100
far down.

157
00:07:24,100 --> 00:07:26,080
So it's not like you can tighten them any extra, right?

158
00:07:26,080 --> 00:07:29,160
It's like a little stopper kind of thing on there.

159
00:07:29,160 --> 00:07:31,560
So I was like, I think hand tight is fine.

160
00:07:31,560 --> 00:07:34,640
You know, like whatever I can do with just a regular socket wrench.

161
00:07:34,640 --> 00:07:39,400
So I did the rest of them and I was like, geez, like, do I need this extra extra bolt

162
00:07:39,400 --> 00:07:40,400
or not?

163
00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:42,640
And I was still waiting on the, the coil packs, right?

164
00:07:42,640 --> 00:07:45,620
I had all the new plugs in, but I was still waiting on the coil packs.

165
00:07:45,620 --> 00:07:48,920
So I kind of like closed up the hood and I thought about it.

166
00:07:48,920 --> 00:07:52,720
And then I did some research and apparently according to the internet, yes, you need every

167
00:07:52,720 --> 00:07:55,440
single bolt to be tight in there.

168
00:07:55,440 --> 00:07:59,800
So then I thought, my God, how am I going to get this shank out of there, the threaded

169
00:07:59,800 --> 00:08:01,240
bit?

170
00:08:01,240 --> 00:08:04,240
And I was talking with Dev and he was like, dude, I don't know.

171
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:06,560
You cranked it like 80 pounds down in there or something.

172
00:08:06,560 --> 00:08:08,120
And I'm like, no, no, I didn't.

173
00:08:08,120 --> 00:08:12,360
I cranked the collar 80 pounds and that's what snapped off the rest of it.

174
00:08:12,360 --> 00:08:14,200
The rest of it should be loose down there.

175
00:08:14,200 --> 00:08:20,600
So I picked up two different styles of like screw extractors and you've seen these things,

176
00:08:20,600 --> 00:08:21,600
right, Mike?

177
00:08:21,600 --> 00:08:22,600
Oh yes.

178
00:08:22,600 --> 00:08:25,680
I've seen one or two different kinds of the house.

179
00:08:25,680 --> 00:08:27,520
I've seen several different styles.

180
00:08:27,520 --> 00:08:28,520
Yep.

181
00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:31,160
So I got kind of a tapered squarish one.

182
00:08:31,160 --> 00:08:34,880
And for that one, you're supposed to use a different drill bit and drill in and then tap

183
00:08:34,880 --> 00:08:39,680
this in and then kind of like, you don't really use a drill or anything.

184
00:08:39,680 --> 00:08:43,120
You just kind of use like a screwdriver, like a wrench to turn this thing in there, but

185
00:08:43,120 --> 00:08:44,920
that wasn't getting any grip.

186
00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:49,400
But I also picked up a pack that had, they were bits for your drill.

187
00:08:49,400 --> 00:08:54,560
So I put it down to the lowest speed and the lowest everything and they're two sided.

188
00:08:54,560 --> 00:09:00,220
One side has the drill bit for the appropriate size of the extractor bit on the flip side.

189
00:09:00,220 --> 00:09:05,200
So I drilled down there, flipped it, drilled out and the thing popped right out like easy.

190
00:09:05,200 --> 00:09:12,160
And I found like the last bolt for my car on eBay.

191
00:09:12,160 --> 00:09:16,960
So I got the last bolt from eBay and that came and the car runs like a dream.

192
00:09:16,960 --> 00:09:21,640
It's got so much horsepower now, like it actually accelerates and there's no chugga chugga.

193
00:09:21,640 --> 00:09:22,640
So hell yeah.

194
00:09:22,640 --> 00:09:25,600
Where did you go to get your extractor set?

195
00:09:25,600 --> 00:09:29,400
I did a lot of research kind of online, different forums.

196
00:09:29,400 --> 00:09:33,800
Usually when I'm looking stuff up that are like real world, I need to know what the best

197
00:09:33,800 --> 00:09:34,960
extractor set is.

198
00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:39,880
I usually search Reddit because a lot of those subreddits are really friendly and they have

199
00:09:39,880 --> 00:09:43,280
a lot of like real world things and they're not paid promoters and stuff.

200
00:09:43,280 --> 00:09:46,260
And they'll be like, yeah, this one fucking sucks or this one's great.

201
00:09:46,260 --> 00:09:51,720
So I ordered both of them from Amazon, but I did like extensive outside of Amazon research.

202
00:09:51,720 --> 00:09:52,720
Okay.

203
00:09:52,720 --> 00:09:54,320
I was expecting to hear Harbor Freight.

204
00:09:54,320 --> 00:10:00,400
No, that's where I got the torque wrench because I'm not going to pay more than $18 for a torque

205
00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:01,960
wrench that I'm going to use once.

206
00:10:01,960 --> 00:10:02,960
Right.

207
00:10:02,960 --> 00:10:03,960
Yeah.

208
00:10:03,960 --> 00:10:06,760
Did you do foot pounds instead of inch pounds?

209
00:10:06,760 --> 00:10:07,840
Was that your mistake?

210
00:10:07,840 --> 00:10:12,280
I think my mistake was I just took the first number that I found on a Google search and

211
00:10:12,280 --> 00:10:17,040
didn't search any more beyond that because when I told Dev, Dev did some research, he's

212
00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:21,160
like, dude, it's supposed to be eight, eight pounds or whatever and not 80 pounds.

213
00:10:21,160 --> 00:10:22,160
Yeah.

214
00:10:22,160 --> 00:10:24,160
Like eight pounds I can do with my hand.

215
00:10:24,160 --> 00:10:25,880
Like I don't need a torque wrench.

216
00:10:25,880 --> 00:10:26,880
Like that's just hand tight.

217
00:10:26,880 --> 00:10:27,880
That's yeah.

218
00:10:27,880 --> 00:10:32,560
That was going to say eight pounds is like, you're going to get more than that just with

219
00:10:32,560 --> 00:10:35,000
a small quarter inch ratchet.

220
00:10:35,000 --> 00:10:36,000
Yeah.

221
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:37,000
Yeah.

222
00:10:37,000 --> 00:10:38,000
Yeah.

223
00:10:38,000 --> 00:10:40,000
So I think, you know, when I took these bolts off, they weren't that tight.

224
00:10:40,000 --> 00:10:43,520
Like so I figured if I would have just not listened to the other person who said, go

225
00:10:43,520 --> 00:10:47,000
get a torque wrench, I would have been fine and I wouldn't have had to buy a new bolt

226
00:10:47,000 --> 00:10:49,960
and stuff and wait extra days to get a car that works.

227
00:10:49,960 --> 00:10:51,880
But because I was just going to hand tighten them.

228
00:10:51,880 --> 00:10:55,400
And then somebody was like, well, you should torque them down there because that's like

229
00:10:55,400 --> 00:10:57,760
the actual cover of the thing that does the stuff.

230
00:10:57,760 --> 00:10:58,760
But you know, it's fine.

231
00:10:58,760 --> 00:11:00,500
And there hasn't been any oil leaking.

232
00:11:00,500 --> 00:11:03,820
And I used to have a slow oil leak and I'm sure it was because it was going into those

233
00:11:03,820 --> 00:11:05,560
cylinder wells or whatever.

234
00:11:05,560 --> 00:11:06,560
So right.

235
00:11:06,560 --> 00:11:07,560
Interesting.

236
00:11:07,560 --> 00:11:08,680
Well, that's cool.

237
00:11:08,680 --> 00:11:12,120
That's how projects always go to it's just a pain in the ass.

238
00:11:12,120 --> 00:11:15,600
If you let it be that, you know, your attitude is everything.

239
00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:18,120
At least my attitude is everything for my projects.

240
00:11:18,120 --> 00:11:23,280
My attitude is everything for my projects, my life and everything else.

241
00:11:23,280 --> 00:11:28,480
But you know, it was like frustrating, but I was wasn't I wasn't really overly worried

242
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:29,480
ever.

243
00:11:29,480 --> 00:11:31,880
It was just kind of like, oh, this is another setback.

244
00:11:31,880 --> 00:11:36,640
And I kind of really took it as this is a good experience because I didn't grow up in

245
00:11:36,640 --> 00:11:38,000
a car household.

246
00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:42,360
You know, my parents always took their cars to the the Jiffy Lube or whatever to get the

247
00:11:42,360 --> 00:11:45,120
oil changed and always to the mechanic to fix things.

248
00:11:45,120 --> 00:11:49,400
My dad was never under his car fixing anything or never in the hood fixing anything unless

249
00:11:49,400 --> 00:11:52,440
he was like putting in a window washer fluid.

250
00:11:52,440 --> 00:11:55,600
You know, that's the only thing that my family ever did car wash.

251
00:11:55,600 --> 00:12:00,040
So and I've done, you know, I've changed my own oil and I've cleaned out my ERG valve

252
00:12:00,040 --> 00:12:03,240
and just done some things that save a ton of money.

253
00:12:03,240 --> 00:12:06,740
And they're not that hard because nowadays with YouTube, everything's on there.

254
00:12:06,740 --> 00:12:10,920
So for me, it's just kind of a neat learning experience, even though I still get frustrated

255
00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:15,280
because I think my car was out of commission for, I don't know, a week and a half, two

256
00:12:15,280 --> 00:12:20,560
weeks because with all the wrong parts and the broken things and this and that.

257
00:12:20,560 --> 00:12:21,560
So sure.

258
00:12:21,560 --> 00:12:24,120
I mean, and you're in a good position to do that.

259
00:12:24,120 --> 00:12:26,000
So yeah, we've got more than one vehicle.

260
00:12:26,000 --> 00:12:29,400
So it's not like we had to have my car running.

261
00:12:29,400 --> 00:12:30,400
Right.

262
00:12:30,400 --> 00:12:31,400
Yeah.

263
00:12:31,400 --> 00:12:36,320
My coworker traditionally has had two vehicles because when one breaks down, he can drive

264
00:12:36,320 --> 00:12:41,120
the other one while he fixes, you know, goes back and forth.

265
00:12:41,120 --> 00:12:42,120
That's interesting.

266
00:12:42,120 --> 00:12:43,120
Yeah.

267
00:12:43,120 --> 00:12:45,680
I don't know if I would ever take a project like that on with my pickup, but

268
00:12:45,680 --> 00:12:46,680
Yeah.

269
00:12:46,680 --> 00:12:50,680
If I was there and goading you into it, you would, but on your own, probably not.

270
00:12:50,680 --> 00:12:51,680
Probably not.

271
00:12:51,680 --> 00:12:52,680
No.

272
00:12:52,680 --> 00:12:57,340
So I got one last thing to fix on that because I'm trying to get it to 400,000 miles.

273
00:12:57,340 --> 00:12:59,120
It's almost at 320.

274
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:02,260
So but it's the air conditioner.

275
00:13:02,260 --> 00:13:06,120
So the fuses are all good on it, but I think it just needs a recharge.

276
00:13:06,120 --> 00:13:11,360
It might need a drain, a complete drain and a recharge, but I'll dig into that.

277
00:13:11,360 --> 00:13:12,360
I think a little bit later.

278
00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:16,880
I mean, I don't need it now, hopefully because it's getting cooler, but

279
00:13:16,880 --> 00:13:20,120
From what I understand, that's something you can do from home, but I don't know if it's

280
00:13:20,120 --> 00:13:23,440
something you can do and not have an environmental spill.

281
00:13:23,440 --> 00:13:25,160
If you know what I mean.

282
00:13:25,160 --> 00:13:26,520
I don't know what that means.

283
00:13:26,520 --> 00:13:28,240
And I would hate to have one of those.

284
00:13:28,240 --> 00:13:29,240
Right.

285
00:13:29,240 --> 00:13:30,240
Especially on your concrete.

286
00:13:30,240 --> 00:13:33,880
I mean, I have a hose.

287
00:13:33,880 --> 00:13:34,880
So right.

288
00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:39,040
You have to put your old car batteries.

289
00:13:39,040 --> 00:13:42,880
You dump them in like the lakes and the oceans that charge up the electric yields there.

290
00:13:42,880 --> 00:13:43,880
Something like that.

291
00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:45,160
That's what they do with the Tesla batteries.

292
00:13:45,160 --> 00:13:46,160
Yeah.

293
00:13:46,160 --> 00:13:50,440
You would know more than I, Mike, how that electricity stuff works.

294
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:52,120
Yes, I would expose.

295
00:13:52,120 --> 00:13:53,120
I suppose.

296
00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:56,320
You have a project that you just did or got done.

297
00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:57,320
Yeah.

298
00:13:57,320 --> 00:14:04,600
I mean, I've been doing house projects, so I put up a chandelier finally, which the contractor

299
00:14:04,600 --> 00:14:06,680
put a chandelier in my kitchen.

300
00:14:06,680 --> 00:14:07,680
Right.

301
00:14:07,680 --> 00:14:08,680
Yeah.

302
00:14:08,680 --> 00:14:11,720
And this home was built in 17 and I took it down.

303
00:14:11,720 --> 00:14:15,440
17 17 or yeah, 17 17 2017.

304
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:16,440
OK.

305
00:14:16,440 --> 00:14:22,720
And so I take the chandelier down and this whole time it's been held up by one screw

306
00:14:22,720 --> 00:14:26,640
because they had the box takes 1024 screws.

307
00:14:26,640 --> 00:14:32,960
They had one 1024 and one 824 and 824 were just pushed in and it was it wasn't holding

308
00:14:32,960 --> 00:14:33,960
anything.

309
00:14:33,960 --> 00:14:34,960
It was straight out.

310
00:14:34,960 --> 00:14:35,960
It looked good, though.

311
00:14:35,960 --> 00:14:36,960
It looked good.

312
00:14:36,960 --> 00:14:37,960
It looked great.

313
00:14:37,960 --> 00:14:39,400
Yeah, but it was holding nothing.

314
00:14:39,400 --> 00:14:45,800
So fortunately I had a machine screw kit and all that fancy stuff and I put new machine

315
00:14:45,800 --> 00:14:46,800
screws up.

316
00:14:46,800 --> 00:14:47,800
Oh, yeah.

317
00:14:47,800 --> 00:14:48,800
And I think you're.

318
00:14:48,800 --> 00:14:49,800
Oh, go on.

319
00:14:49,800 --> 00:14:50,800
Oh, go ahead.

320
00:14:50,800 --> 00:14:54,480
I was going to say, I think like a little machine screw set is a perfect, perfect thing

321
00:14:54,480 --> 00:14:55,480
to have on hand.

322
00:14:55,480 --> 00:14:56,480
Yeah.

323
00:14:56,480 --> 00:14:57,480
Yeah.

324
00:14:57,480 --> 00:14:58,480
And you can get them.

325
00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:01,160
It doesn't even matter what you don't need stainless steel machine screws.

326
00:15:01,160 --> 00:15:02,160
You can get them.

327
00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:03,160
Doesn't matter.

328
00:15:03,160 --> 00:15:04,160
Yeah.

329
00:15:04,160 --> 00:15:05,160
Home Depot has them, I know.

330
00:15:05,160 --> 00:15:10,160
And you're going to want like 1032s, 1024s, 832s, 632s.

331
00:15:10,160 --> 00:15:11,160
Yeah.

332
00:15:11,160 --> 00:15:15,720
I mean, if you don't use a lot of them, just whatever the variety set is that you get,

333
00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:19,360
you know, just get it, toss it, toss it somewhere in the basement or in the garage.

334
00:15:19,360 --> 00:15:20,560
If you ever need one, it's there.

335
00:15:20,560 --> 00:15:22,680
You don't have to go around for one.

336
00:15:22,680 --> 00:15:27,600
When you're doing receptacles at your house, you know, you need 832s and 632s constantly

337
00:15:27,600 --> 00:15:29,200
and 1032s.

338
00:15:29,200 --> 00:15:35,440
So and for those who don't know, a 1032 is typically used as a ground screw and it does

339
00:15:35,440 --> 00:15:36,840
not need to be green.

340
00:15:36,840 --> 00:15:38,920
So you can just use a regular 1032.

341
00:15:38,920 --> 00:15:39,920
Yeah.

342
00:15:39,920 --> 00:15:44,600
But that's like a pop quiz question always for the electrical code.

343
00:15:44,600 --> 00:15:48,600
A bar, a bar trivia game for your trivia team at the bar.

344
00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:49,600
Basically.

345
00:15:49,600 --> 00:15:50,600
Yeah.

346
00:15:50,600 --> 00:15:51,600
Drunken electrician trivia.

347
00:15:51,600 --> 00:15:59,760
That's kind of been my mission here since we bought our house three years ago is kind

348
00:15:59,760 --> 00:16:05,760
of like, you know, I had tools to begin with, but if you don't have a house, you don't realize

349
00:16:05,760 --> 00:16:07,680
how many kind of tools that you need.

350
00:16:07,680 --> 00:16:13,840
And if you are going to do some light automotive repair or even lawnmower or small engine repairs

351
00:16:13,840 --> 00:16:18,200
type of stuff, like it takes a bit to kind of amass just enough tools and enough little

352
00:16:18,200 --> 00:16:22,640
things to kind of be able to do stuff without having to run out and get new things, you

353
00:16:22,640 --> 00:16:23,640
know?

354
00:16:23,640 --> 00:16:24,640
Oh yeah.

355
00:16:24,640 --> 00:16:25,640
Yep.

356
00:16:25,640 --> 00:16:31,600
And I like tools and I had a lot of hand tools before I bought a house because I was working

357
00:16:31,600 --> 00:16:32,600
construction.

358
00:16:32,600 --> 00:16:34,440
I haven't had to buy a lot of tools.

359
00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:38,240
I've been buying, I bought a lot of, and I need more clamps because now.

360
00:16:38,240 --> 00:16:39,240
Oh yeah.

361
00:16:39,240 --> 00:16:40,240
Clamps.

362
00:16:40,240 --> 00:16:41,240
Yep.

363
00:16:41,240 --> 00:16:42,240
Yeah.

364
00:16:42,240 --> 00:16:44,820
My, of course everything in the house is new as of 17, right?

365
00:16:44,820 --> 00:16:50,080
So why wouldn't the stools at my center Island be broken and fallen apart?

366
00:16:50,080 --> 00:16:55,240
And one of the, one of this, uh, my, uh, kitchen or not my kitchen, my, uh, breakfast table

367
00:16:55,240 --> 00:16:58,760
out here in the smoking porch, one of those chairs fell apart too.

368
00:16:58,760 --> 00:16:59,760
Okay.

369
00:16:59,760 --> 00:17:01,720
So now I have to like, I got a bit set.

370
00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:08,520
I ordered it on Amazon and it's Alan bits that fit in a, uh, ratchet, a rattle gun,

371
00:17:08,520 --> 00:17:09,520
you know?

372
00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:10,520
Okay.

373
00:17:10,520 --> 00:17:11,520
Yep.

374
00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:12,520
Yep.

375
00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:19,200
And I think I spent seven bucks for, uh, 24 of them, you know, 12 metric and 12 standard.

376
00:17:19,200 --> 00:17:20,200
Yeah.

377
00:17:20,200 --> 00:17:24,080
I've been working on picking up adapters for the sockets for different drives to go up

378
00:17:24,080 --> 00:17:30,920
and down and down and up and, and I picked up a set of extension bars for sockets and

379
00:17:30,920 --> 00:17:36,080
they're the wobble bits or the wobble connectors, which are actually fairly nice.

380
00:17:36,080 --> 00:17:39,600
Um, but yeah, I mean, just, you don't need to have a whole bunch of different socket

381
00:17:39,600 --> 00:17:43,160
handles as long as you've got the adapters to go up or down, or if you're borrowing

382
00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:46,720
a bit from your buddy, you have to make sure you can put it on whatever you've got.

383
00:17:46,720 --> 00:17:47,720
So right.

384
00:17:47,720 --> 00:17:53,400
Well, I have a full set, uh, a quarter inch set, and then I got a full three set and a

385
00:17:53,400 --> 00:17:56,200
full half inch set, uh, impact set.

386
00:17:56,200 --> 00:18:01,040
And what I've noticed is that I use my quarter inch set all the time and I use my half inch

387
00:18:01,040 --> 00:18:06,320
set all the time and I never use my three set for anything ever.

388
00:18:06,320 --> 00:18:08,480
I don't know why, but I don't ever use it.

389
00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:13,800
My quarter inch set goes up to nine sixteenths and my half inch set goes down to seven sixteenths.

390
00:18:13,800 --> 00:18:19,400
So there's no reason for me to ever use my three eight and set.

391
00:18:19,400 --> 00:18:20,600
And I have a mid torque.

392
00:18:20,600 --> 00:18:25,040
So if it's like a big project, I just take the mid torque out and bang it in.

393
00:18:25,040 --> 00:18:27,360
So, yeah, yeah.

394
00:18:27,360 --> 00:18:28,360
Building decks.

395
00:18:28,360 --> 00:18:35,280
Cause I, I had to repair all my garden beds this year and that took a week of, uh, evenings

396
00:18:35,280 --> 00:18:41,280
and that was, uh, I pounded in, uh, four foot long stakes into the ground with my mall.

397
00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:44,200
And then I took leg bolts and leg bolted everything together.

398
00:18:44,200 --> 00:18:45,200
Yeah.

399
00:18:45,200 --> 00:18:46,200
Yeah.

400
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:47,200
Back to the chairs.

401
00:18:47,200 --> 00:18:52,520
So my plan now, I'm going to have to get more, even more clamps, but I'm going to take apart

402
00:18:52,520 --> 00:18:58,880
the chairs, uh, and put them back together again with glue and with Loctite because they're

403
00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:00,300
just coming apart.

404
00:19:00,300 --> 00:19:01,300
It's insane.

405
00:19:01,300 --> 00:19:02,300
Yeah.

406
00:19:02,300 --> 00:19:03,300
Nobody even sits on them.

407
00:19:03,300 --> 00:19:04,300
They're just falling apart.

408
00:19:04,300 --> 00:19:06,840
That's a what?

409
00:19:06,840 --> 00:19:09,080
Just attrition, just general attrition, right?

410
00:19:09,080 --> 00:19:10,080
Yeah.

411
00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:11,080
Yeah.

412
00:19:11,080 --> 00:19:12,080
Yeah.

413
00:19:12,080 --> 00:19:15,320
Uh, one, one, somebody sat on one of these stupid, uh, the breakfast nook chairs and

414
00:19:15,320 --> 00:19:16,320
it broke.

415
00:19:16,320 --> 00:19:17,320
Yeah.

416
00:19:17,320 --> 00:19:18,320
Uh, you were here.

417
00:19:18,320 --> 00:19:19,320
Yeah.

418
00:19:19,320 --> 00:19:20,320
They put them together with Elmer's glue or something.

419
00:19:20,320 --> 00:19:25,780
There's well, so what I found out is I don't think that they were ever tightened correctly

420
00:19:25,780 --> 00:19:26,780
to begin with.

421
00:19:26,780 --> 00:19:27,860
Oh, okay.

422
00:19:27,860 --> 00:19:33,080
And of course they're, they all spin and there's like three layers of parts that all have to

423
00:19:33,080 --> 00:19:34,080
be put together.

424
00:19:34,080 --> 00:19:38,760
So I wanted these bits so I could take them apart and put them back together faster.

425
00:19:38,760 --> 00:19:39,760
Yeah.

426
00:19:39,760 --> 00:19:43,080
Um, and then they got wood screws and I'm in the wood screws are falling out and all

427
00:19:43,080 --> 00:19:44,080
this crazy nonsense.

428
00:19:44,080 --> 00:19:45,560
And I'm like, F this.

429
00:19:45,560 --> 00:19:49,000
I'm going to glue all the wood together and just put them together, right?

430
00:19:49,000 --> 00:19:54,000
The first, like now the second chairs, any chair that moves seems to like fall apart

431
00:19:54,000 --> 00:19:55,360
quicker than anything else.

432
00:19:55,360 --> 00:19:56,360
Oh yeah.

433
00:19:56,360 --> 00:19:58,720
And they have like lock washers on everything.

434
00:19:58,720 --> 00:19:59,720
That's just not good enough.

435
00:19:59,720 --> 00:20:00,720
I'm going to have to use Loctite.

436
00:20:00,720 --> 00:20:02,280
I have red and blue Loctite.

437
00:20:02,280 --> 00:20:07,000
So yeah, so we, um, we bought a, how great, what are they called?

438
00:20:07,000 --> 00:20:12,000
They're called the gliders, a glider chair, uh, as like a recliner, but they're specifically

439
00:20:12,000 --> 00:20:13,480
designed for newborns, right?

440
00:20:13,480 --> 00:20:17,720
So you can rock in them, you can recline in them and the baby can sleep on you even though

441
00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:20,540
you're not, the baby can sleep on you, but you're not supposed to sleep with a baby sleeping

442
00:20:20,540 --> 00:20:21,540
on you.

443
00:20:21,540 --> 00:20:22,540
And that never happens.

444
00:20:22,540 --> 00:20:24,920
Nobody ever sleeps when a baby's sleeping on them.

445
00:20:24,920 --> 00:20:32,440
But it was held onto the base by like, as a big, it's a big bolt, but just a regular

446
00:20:32,440 --> 00:20:34,680
nut and it kept loosening up.

447
00:20:34,680 --> 00:20:36,660
So the chair would wobble and wobble and wobble.

448
00:20:36,660 --> 00:20:38,120
So finally I took that thing off.

449
00:20:38,120 --> 00:20:42,560
I went down to the hardware store and I got a lock washer and cranked that thing on there

450
00:20:42,560 --> 00:20:44,000
and it's been fine ever since.

451
00:20:44,000 --> 00:20:48,360
But why they didn't put a lock washer on the bottom of this, like five, $600 chair to begin

452
00:20:48,360 --> 00:20:50,160
with is beyond me.

453
00:20:50,160 --> 00:20:53,520
Like it should be working just fine without anybody having to modify it.

454
00:20:53,520 --> 00:20:54,520
Right.

455
00:20:54,520 --> 00:20:55,520
It's goofy.

456
00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:59,920
And like Sarah likes to complain about the chairs and how crappy they are, but it's kind

457
00:20:59,920 --> 00:21:00,920
of like the chandelier.

458
00:21:00,920 --> 00:21:02,960
This is a custom built home.

459
00:21:02,960 --> 00:21:06,920
Everything should have been top notch and it's just very clearly not.

460
00:21:06,920 --> 00:21:09,160
I have to replace another receptacle.

461
00:21:09,160 --> 00:21:12,340
I broke another fricking receptacle in the house.

462
00:21:12,340 --> 00:21:14,040
So that's another to do project.

463
00:21:14,040 --> 00:21:16,280
What are you doing with all these receptacles, Mike?

464
00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:18,480
The GFI, I burnt the GFI out.

465
00:21:18,480 --> 00:21:21,400
So Oh, sure.

466
00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:25,300
Now I found another wasp nest today doing dog training because we've been doing those

467
00:21:25,300 --> 00:21:26,800
fucking things, dude.

468
00:21:26,800 --> 00:21:30,880
Oh, I found one on a deer stand out in the woods.

469
00:21:30,880 --> 00:21:31,880
It's not out in the woods.

470
00:21:31,880 --> 00:21:36,000
It's like on the edge of the field, you know, and we were doing some training and I saw

471
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:37,580
it and I'm like, Mother effort.

472
00:21:37,580 --> 00:21:40,520
That's the fifth or sixth wasp nest I've found this year.

473
00:21:40,520 --> 00:21:45,120
Yeah, we have one that's right next to our neighbor's house and they're in this kind

474
00:21:45,120 --> 00:21:48,080
of like and this is going to sound weird because these things aren't supposed to rot, but they

475
00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:51,880
do this kind of like rotted, hollowed out railroad tie.

476
00:21:51,880 --> 00:21:53,760
But it's it's where we can get in.

477
00:21:53,760 --> 00:21:58,520
We've we've collectively between us and our neighbor have dumped maybe five or six cans

478
00:21:58,520 --> 00:22:03,240
of like ground nest killer, regular wasp killer and everything and they come back every time.

479
00:22:03,240 --> 00:22:05,740
So it's a very deep, deep thing.

480
00:22:05,740 --> 00:22:08,080
There's a trick and I learned it from the internet.

481
00:22:08,080 --> 00:22:10,640
So don't don't blame me if it's life is a lie.

482
00:22:10,640 --> 00:22:14,600
You use the ground wasp killer, you get rid of it so you can go there like a day or two

483
00:22:14,600 --> 00:22:15,600
later, right?

484
00:22:15,600 --> 00:22:16,600
They don't sting you.

485
00:22:16,600 --> 00:22:22,440
You spray foam and you spray foam inside of it until you can't spray foam anymore and

486
00:22:22,440 --> 00:22:24,960
then it'll fill it up with spray foam and they can't get in anymore.

487
00:22:24,960 --> 00:22:29,400
Yeah, I know that was gonna be my next thing, but I think what we're trying to do is put

488
00:22:29,400 --> 00:22:32,280
some pressure on our neighbor to pull those out because they're literally right next to

489
00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:33,280
her house.

490
00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:34,280
Oh, sure.

491
00:22:34,280 --> 00:22:35,400
And in between our two houses.

492
00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:40,120
So and we we spray the ground killer and then the next morning they're all coming back out

493
00:22:40,120 --> 00:22:44,880
again because I just I think the nest is so deep in there that even with the spray foam

494
00:22:44,880 --> 00:22:47,600
being directly in there, it's not getting back far enough.

495
00:22:47,600 --> 00:22:48,600
Sure.

496
00:22:48,600 --> 00:22:52,360
Yeah, if you got like the great stuff, spray foam, it was plug it.

497
00:22:52,360 --> 00:22:53,360
That's what we used.

498
00:22:53,360 --> 00:22:58,760
I use that all around the garage and around our stoops on our house because there was

499
00:22:58,760 --> 00:23:02,560
just too much gaps because the people that lived here, our house was built in the 60s

500
00:23:02,560 --> 00:23:06,560
and so the people that lived here didn't really upkeep a lot of things.

501
00:23:06,560 --> 00:23:09,560
Not not all the people that lived here, but I think the most recent people that lived

502
00:23:09,560 --> 00:23:11,200
here didn't upkeep a lot of things.

503
00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:15,280
So there's a lot of like dirt that had been dug away or what whatnot.

504
00:23:15,280 --> 00:23:18,320
So yeah, that's crazy.

505
00:23:18,320 --> 00:23:19,320
It's crazy.

506
00:23:19,320 --> 00:23:21,520
The build quality of stuff is just junk nowadays.

507
00:23:21,520 --> 00:23:24,240
Seems like but pretty much.

508
00:23:24,240 --> 00:23:28,380
So my other project has to do kind of with our podcast, dude.

509
00:23:28,380 --> 00:23:29,380
So I don't know.

510
00:23:29,380 --> 00:23:30,380
You know this, Mike.

511
00:23:30,380 --> 00:23:34,320
I don't know how many listeners know this, but it's kind of the same thing as how can

512
00:23:34,320 --> 00:23:36,160
you tell if somebody is a vegan?

513
00:23:36,160 --> 00:23:37,660
Wait a minute and they'll tell you.

514
00:23:37,660 --> 00:23:40,200
How can you tell if somebody is a Linux user?

515
00:23:40,200 --> 00:23:41,440
Wait a minute and they'll tell you.

516
00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:45,100
So I run Linux on my laptop.

517
00:23:45,100 --> 00:23:47,160
It's a Dell, not a Dell.

518
00:23:47,160 --> 00:23:50,400
It's a space Dell laptop.

519
00:23:50,400 --> 00:23:53,120
And I was looking at different things because it's a little bit older.

520
00:23:53,120 --> 00:23:57,040
I mean, it's not as old as your computer, Mike, but it's a little bit older.

521
00:23:57,040 --> 00:24:00,720
And I had a Dell previously that I was running Linux on.

522
00:24:00,720 --> 00:24:04,120
And I remember I upgraded like the Wi Fi card.

523
00:24:04,120 --> 00:24:09,280
And I think on that one, I was able to upgrade the CPU and maybe even the graphics card on

524
00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:10,280
that one.

525
00:24:10,280 --> 00:24:13,000
But this one, I decided that I was going to upgrade the Wi Fi card.

526
00:24:13,000 --> 00:24:20,040
So it does, it'll do Wi Fi six now and it does Bluetooth 5.2, which is like the latest

527
00:24:20,040 --> 00:24:21,040
Bluetooth protocol.

528
00:24:21,040 --> 00:24:22,040
Sure.

529
00:24:22,040 --> 00:24:25,520
It's not super, not super important for anybody to know what those technical terms means other

530
00:24:25,520 --> 00:24:31,000
than Bluetooth is by definition a low energy kind of pull, you know, so you're not using

531
00:24:31,000 --> 00:24:32,000
a lot of energy.

532
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:34,720
That's why your Bluetooth headphones can last quite a long time.

533
00:24:34,720 --> 00:24:37,480
And the newer protocols use even less power and energy.

534
00:24:37,480 --> 00:24:39,920
So and they've got better connectivity.

535
00:24:39,920 --> 00:24:40,920
So I did that.

536
00:24:40,920 --> 00:24:44,760
And then I ordered some RAM because I've only got four gigs of RAM in this thing.

537
00:24:44,760 --> 00:24:48,160
So if I want to open Google Chrome, I'm going to need way more than that.

538
00:24:48,160 --> 00:24:49,160
But I ordered 16.

539
00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:51,840
So I'm going to, you know, quadruple the RAM.

540
00:24:51,840 --> 00:24:56,260
I think it'll take up to 32, but that was too expensive for what I use it for.

541
00:24:56,260 --> 00:25:04,680
So but when I was doing the Wi Fi card, I noticed something in my laptop, Mike, the

542
00:25:04,680 --> 00:25:12,960
battery was a little bulgy.

543
00:25:12,960 --> 00:25:15,600
And so they've got the lithium ion batteries.

544
00:25:15,600 --> 00:25:17,400
When they go bad, they'll get puffy.

545
00:25:17,400 --> 00:25:19,480
And even if they they'll still work.

546
00:25:19,480 --> 00:25:22,700
But there's a whole sub Reddit called spicy pillows.

547
00:25:22,700 --> 00:25:26,720
And it is people with videos showing what happens when these batteries, they will either

548
00:25:26,720 --> 00:25:31,140
burst into flames or they will shoot acid about 40 feet.

549
00:25:31,140 --> 00:25:35,040
So so I was like, man, I better get that out of my out of my laptop.

550
00:25:35,040 --> 00:25:36,680
And so I pulled it on my laptop.

551
00:25:36,680 --> 00:25:41,160
I found a free disposal place here that was run by the county.

552
00:25:41,160 --> 00:25:43,920
And all I had to do is put it in a Ziploc bag and then drop it off.

553
00:25:43,920 --> 00:25:47,480
So I pulled the battery out, put it in Ziploc bag, I put it outside the house and then,

554
00:25:47,480 --> 00:25:50,400
you know, grabbed it to go and get rid of it.

555
00:25:50,400 --> 00:25:51,400
And I ordered a new battery.

556
00:25:51,400 --> 00:25:53,580
You can run you can run your laptop without a battery.

557
00:25:53,580 --> 00:25:54,580
You just plug it into the wall.

558
00:25:54,580 --> 00:25:55,580
Oh, yes.

559
00:25:55,580 --> 00:25:57,220
Or I ordered a new battery.

560
00:25:57,220 --> 00:25:58,540
And it's an internal battery, right.

561
00:25:58,540 --> 00:26:01,120
So it's not one you could see from the outside.

562
00:26:01,120 --> 00:26:06,680
And I popped the new battery in and I was going to go hook the cord up to the, you know,

563
00:26:06,680 --> 00:26:07,760
the little connectors in there.

564
00:26:07,760 --> 00:26:08,760
And I'm like, oh, fuck.

565
00:26:08,760 --> 00:26:13,920
When I when I took the old battery out, I put the whole thing, the cord and all in the

566
00:26:13,920 --> 00:26:17,160
bag and donated that.

567
00:26:17,160 --> 00:26:23,120
So I had to spend another $10 to order a new cable that goes from the battery to the motherboard.

568
00:26:23,120 --> 00:26:24,120
So that came this morning.

569
00:26:24,120 --> 00:26:26,320
I was pretty pretty stoked about that.

570
00:26:26,320 --> 00:26:28,320
But it was funny because I just wanted it gone.

571
00:26:28,320 --> 00:26:29,760
So I didn't want to explode on me.

572
00:26:29,760 --> 00:26:30,760
Right.

573
00:26:30,760 --> 00:26:32,360
So I was like, OK, God, get out of here.

574
00:26:32,360 --> 00:26:35,160
And forgot about pulling the cord off of it.

575
00:26:35,160 --> 00:26:36,820
That's hilarious.

576
00:26:36,820 --> 00:26:37,820
That is funny.

577
00:26:37,820 --> 00:26:38,820
Things like that happen.

578
00:26:38,820 --> 00:26:39,820
Yeah.

579
00:26:39,820 --> 00:26:42,580
If you have an older laptop, it might not be a bad idea to kind of pop it open and just

580
00:26:42,580 --> 00:26:44,000
check your battery status.

581
00:26:44,000 --> 00:26:46,420
Yeah, probably not.

582
00:26:46,420 --> 00:26:48,640
My battery on this laptop still top notch.

583
00:26:48,640 --> 00:26:51,240
It runs eight to 12 hours on the battery.

584
00:26:51,240 --> 00:26:52,240
Yeah.

585
00:26:52,240 --> 00:26:55,040
Well, my ran just fine on battery, but it was still blown.

586
00:26:55,040 --> 00:26:56,040
You know, it was still puffing.

587
00:26:56,040 --> 00:26:58,840
So sometimes you get in there.

588
00:26:58,840 --> 00:27:01,200
I should send you a picture, too.

589
00:27:01,200 --> 00:27:05,080
I sent Sarah a picture and you just send her another one because I put a new light bulb

590
00:27:05,080 --> 00:27:06,080
in the chandelier.

591
00:27:06,080 --> 00:27:09,760
OK, those who don't know probably didn't share it on the show.

592
00:27:09,760 --> 00:27:12,880
We got at a swap meet in Cambridge last year.

593
00:27:12,880 --> 00:27:17,960
We got a glass chandelier that is stained glass and we had to repair it.

594
00:27:17,960 --> 00:27:20,920
And we got some assistance from your Sarah on that.

595
00:27:20,920 --> 00:27:21,920
Yes.

596
00:27:21,920 --> 00:27:22,920
And I finally just put it up.

597
00:27:22,920 --> 00:27:26,800
But then I replaced the bulb with an Edison bulb.

598
00:27:26,800 --> 00:27:30,640
And it's like a seven inch long, long filament Edison bulb.

599
00:27:30,640 --> 00:27:32,200
Pretty cool LED, of course.

600
00:27:32,200 --> 00:27:33,200
Yeah.

601
00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:34,520
But it looks pretty sharp.

602
00:27:34,520 --> 00:27:35,520
Nice.

603
00:27:35,520 --> 00:27:38,240
And it's like a thousand lumens, I think.

604
00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:39,740
Pretty sure it's a thousand lumens.

605
00:27:39,740 --> 00:27:46,480
So plenty bright for a kitchen table that never gets used.

606
00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:47,480
Just supposed to look nice.

607
00:27:47,480 --> 00:27:48,480
Yeah.

608
00:27:48,480 --> 00:27:51,000
It's one of those things when you're doing the house tour, you turn that on and this

609
00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:52,000
is the kitchen table.

610
00:27:52,000 --> 00:27:53,800
And they go, yeah, oh, it's that light.

611
00:27:53,800 --> 00:27:58,680
So yeah, it's nice if I'm chilling playing Skyrim or something and I don't want a lot

612
00:27:58,680 --> 00:28:00,400
of light, I can turn that on.

613
00:28:00,400 --> 00:28:01,400
Yeah.

614
00:28:01,400 --> 00:28:03,960
And lights up the whole upstairs fairly well.

615
00:28:03,960 --> 00:28:04,960
Yeah.

616
00:28:04,960 --> 00:28:06,240
And it matches the storm light.

617
00:28:06,240 --> 00:28:07,240
OK.

618
00:28:07,240 --> 00:28:11,920
I think I'm about halfway or maybe a little more than halfway on this on this thing.

619
00:28:11,920 --> 00:28:12,920
I am as well.

620
00:28:12,920 --> 00:28:13,920
So far.

621
00:28:13,920 --> 00:28:14,920
I like it.

622
00:28:14,920 --> 00:28:15,920
Yeah, it's good.

623
00:28:15,920 --> 00:28:16,920
Yeah.

624
00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:19,040
The spices gotten a little more prominent as we've been going along, I think.

625
00:28:19,040 --> 00:28:20,040
I agree.

626
00:28:20,040 --> 00:28:21,200
This is not a beginner cigar.

627
00:28:21,200 --> 00:28:22,200
No.

628
00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:25,800
I would not call this like a good cigar for somebody who does not smoke cigars.

629
00:28:25,800 --> 00:28:26,800
Yeah.

630
00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:27,800
But it's good for us.

631
00:28:27,800 --> 00:28:28,800
Oh, yeah, it's wonderful.

632
00:28:28,800 --> 00:28:29,800
It's great.

633
00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:33,560
So I'm still working on my deck, by the way.

634
00:28:33,560 --> 00:28:34,560
OK.

635
00:28:34,560 --> 00:28:37,080
I'm like, this is like the project that's never ending.

636
00:28:37,080 --> 00:28:42,040
Nobody that's listening knows, but I started working on this GD deck last year because

637
00:28:42,040 --> 00:28:46,200
I did the front deck last year or the entryway deck completed.

638
00:28:46,200 --> 00:28:48,600
And then I started this one last fall.

639
00:28:48,600 --> 00:28:49,800
Never got it done.

640
00:28:49,800 --> 00:28:54,640
It's been too hot all year and it was too hot last week to continue to working on it

641
00:28:54,640 --> 00:28:57,560
either because it has to be a certain temperature.

642
00:28:57,560 --> 00:28:59,240
And I'm still working on it.

643
00:28:59,240 --> 00:29:01,760
I feel like an idiot.

644
00:29:01,760 --> 00:29:02,760
I just need to get it done.

645
00:29:02,760 --> 00:29:10,360
Yeah, that sounds very familiar because you came down and you helped us put a we tore

646
00:29:10,360 --> 00:29:16,480
out the ceiling above our stairs to the basement and there was no entry light at the top of

647
00:29:16,480 --> 00:29:17,480
the stairs.

648
00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:22,640
So Mike came down and helped us wire in a fixture mount or whatever.

649
00:29:22,640 --> 00:29:28,120
And then and then it took us, I think, a full year to kind of put drywall back up there

650
00:29:28,120 --> 00:29:32,200
and then mud and sand and paint and then actually install the light.

651
00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:36,960
You know, like a small child, it's hard to kind of do stuff that's noisy when they're

652
00:29:36,960 --> 00:29:37,960
asleep.

653
00:29:37,960 --> 00:29:41,920
So we had a couple like work weekends to where we kind of worked at it, but we could have

654
00:29:41,920 --> 00:29:43,800
got it done a lot sooner if we were a little more diligent.

655
00:29:43,800 --> 00:29:47,160
But it's kind of one of those things where it's like, well, OK, it has to dry now.

656
00:29:47,160 --> 00:29:51,360
Like when you soak a pan after you cook something, you like, it's got to soak for four or five

657
00:29:51,360 --> 00:29:52,360
days.

658
00:29:52,360 --> 00:29:53,360
Right.

659
00:29:53,360 --> 00:29:54,360
Exactly.

660
00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:55,360
Yeah.

661
00:29:55,360 --> 00:29:57,720
And with us, I mean, we don't have children, but we're I'm getting very diligent about

662
00:29:57,720 --> 00:30:03,560
dog training because we we want to take her on longer hikes, but she pulls so hard on

663
00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:04,560
our leash sometimes.

664
00:30:04,560 --> 00:30:08,680
So now I've been focusing really hard on that.

665
00:30:08,680 --> 00:30:13,360
And it takes energy out of me to like do a half hour to a 45 minute training session

666
00:30:13,360 --> 00:30:14,360
with the dog.

667
00:30:14,360 --> 00:30:15,360
Yeah.

668
00:30:15,360 --> 00:30:21,000
Because she's a stubborn and man, I did one today with her and she was so mad at me by

669
00:30:21,000 --> 00:30:24,000
the end of it.

670
00:30:24,000 --> 00:30:27,360
Like we're turning for no reason.

671
00:30:27,360 --> 00:30:30,080
It's like, yeah, I know.

672
00:30:30,080 --> 00:30:31,960
So always interesting.

673
00:30:31,960 --> 00:30:32,960
Oh, yes.

674
00:30:32,960 --> 00:30:39,280
Did I tell you that I went I made a project this summer of fixing my bibs?

675
00:30:39,280 --> 00:30:43,320
So I had like, I don't know, four pairs of work bibs that all needed patches.

676
00:30:43,320 --> 00:30:44,320
OK.

677
00:30:44,320 --> 00:30:47,280
And I had pants on my pants, get holes in them, my work pants.

678
00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:49,400
So I patched those two and I.

679
00:30:49,400 --> 00:30:50,400
Yeah.

680
00:30:50,400 --> 00:30:51,960
So now I'm all done.

681
00:30:51,960 --> 00:30:57,880
And it took a long time because it takes three days for a patch to set with the gorilla glue

682
00:30:57,880 --> 00:30:58,880
fabric glue.

683
00:30:58,880 --> 00:31:01,120
And you got to wait it down.

684
00:31:01,120 --> 00:31:04,880
But now I'm all done with all the patching, which is like not that big of a deal, but

685
00:31:04,880 --> 00:31:06,640
it is just time consuming.

686
00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:07,640
Yeah.

687
00:31:07,640 --> 00:31:10,640
So and I'm rebuilding my bowling ball rack.

688
00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:11,640
Nice.

689
00:31:11,640 --> 00:31:15,160
Is that is it a custom rack builder?

690
00:31:15,160 --> 00:31:19,440
So I have my plastic shelves down in my room and then I have foam ball cups.

691
00:31:19,440 --> 00:31:20,440
OK.

692
00:31:20,440 --> 00:31:24,800
And what I'm doing is I am making the ball cups thinner and I'm going to shape them down

693
00:31:24,800 --> 00:31:28,400
smaller to make so I can put more bowling balls per shelf.

694
00:31:28,400 --> 00:31:34,240
Oh, and then I'm going to put a single layer of foam on the bottom to like make it just

695
00:31:34,240 --> 00:31:35,560
a little more durable.

696
00:31:35,560 --> 00:31:36,560
OK.

697
00:31:36,560 --> 00:31:37,560
Yeah.

698
00:31:37,560 --> 00:31:42,280
And then I'm going to put a layer of foam as crazy as it sounds, a wood rack or any

699
00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:46,480
hard racking will warp the shape of the bowling ball over time.

700
00:31:46,480 --> 00:31:50,000
So the foam is necessary so it doesn't damage itself.

701
00:31:50,000 --> 00:31:51,000
You know?

702
00:31:51,000 --> 00:31:52,000
Yeah.

703
00:31:52,000 --> 00:31:56,960
And that's again, I'm using all my clamps and everything to glue the foam together.

704
00:31:56,960 --> 00:31:57,960
Yeah.

705
00:31:57,960 --> 00:32:00,960
And like it's just time consuming.

706
00:32:00,960 --> 00:32:01,960
Everything is.

707
00:32:01,960 --> 00:32:03,960
But it's worth I mean, you know, it's worth it at the end.

708
00:32:03,960 --> 00:32:08,880
Sometimes it's like, man, I wish I could just, you know, I do the same thing as I paint like

709
00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:12,080
some minis and stuff like some miniatures every once in a while.

710
00:32:12,080 --> 00:32:14,360
I'm not like the Warhammer, whatever guy.

711
00:32:14,360 --> 00:32:19,120
But some of my board games and things have minis or, you know, like minis you can upgrade

712
00:32:19,120 --> 00:32:20,120
to.

713
00:32:20,120 --> 00:32:23,080
And, you know, it's like this is the same thing.

714
00:32:23,080 --> 00:32:24,080
You know, you got to do the prime.

715
00:32:24,080 --> 00:32:25,400
You got to wash them.

716
00:32:25,400 --> 00:32:26,400
Wait for it to dry.

717
00:32:26,400 --> 00:32:27,400
Do the primer.

718
00:32:27,400 --> 00:32:28,400
Wait for it to dry.

719
00:32:28,400 --> 00:32:30,840
Do the you know, I just want it all done.

720
00:32:30,840 --> 00:32:35,080
I kind of like to do those projects where you can get into them and like, like just

721
00:32:35,080 --> 00:32:37,880
know like, OK, I have two hours dedicated.

722
00:32:37,880 --> 00:32:39,920
I could totally get this project done.

723
00:32:39,920 --> 00:32:44,640
But with things like what you got to wait for glue to dry or like parts to arrive or

724
00:32:44,640 --> 00:32:49,600
whatever, you know, it's like it's not a I can just focus really hard and work really

725
00:32:49,600 --> 00:32:50,600
hard and get it done.

726
00:32:50,600 --> 00:32:53,920
It's I have to do a little bit over a long period of time.

727
00:32:53,920 --> 00:32:54,920
Yeah.

728
00:32:54,920 --> 00:32:55,920
Yeah.

729
00:32:55,920 --> 00:32:58,280
For me, like, well, you've seen my work area downstairs.

730
00:32:58,280 --> 00:32:59,920
I only have the one table.

731
00:32:59,920 --> 00:33:03,920
So once I get like a glue project laid out, that's it.

732
00:33:03,920 --> 00:33:07,080
Like I can't I can no longer work down there.

733
00:33:07,080 --> 00:33:08,080
Yeah.

734
00:33:08,080 --> 00:33:09,080
Yeah.

735
00:33:09,080 --> 00:33:10,080
And that's fine.

736
00:33:10,080 --> 00:33:11,520
Oh, yeah, it is what it is.

737
00:33:11,520 --> 00:33:16,560
You got to make it is what you got and get enough tools to do most projects that you

738
00:33:16,560 --> 00:33:17,720
would ever need to do.

739
00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:18,720
You know, right.

740
00:33:18,720 --> 00:33:19,720
Exactly.

741
00:33:19,720 --> 00:33:23,480
And I found now that I'm buying like home home tools.

742
00:33:23,480 --> 00:33:24,480
Yeah.

743
00:33:24,480 --> 00:33:28,520
Like Harbor Freight is I hate to say it, but I buy a lot of Harbor Freight tools.

744
00:33:28,520 --> 00:33:30,120
These really.

745
00:33:30,120 --> 00:33:31,120
Yeah.

746
00:33:31,120 --> 00:33:33,800
You know, I think and I was talking to somebody else about this, too.

747
00:33:33,800 --> 00:33:36,720
It's like a lot of people like to poo poo Harbor Freight.

748
00:33:36,720 --> 00:33:41,960
But I'm telling you, like, eighteen dollars for a torque wrench and anywhere else, it's

749
00:33:41,960 --> 00:33:45,400
like one hundred and twenty dollars for torque wrench no matter what.

750
00:33:45,400 --> 00:33:49,320
You know, and it's like I'm not how how often am I going to use it?

751
00:33:49,320 --> 00:33:50,320
I don't know.

752
00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:51,320
It was eighteen bucks.

753
00:33:51,320 --> 00:33:52,800
So I'm not going to go back and return it.

754
00:33:52,800 --> 00:33:58,240
And I know these places have like tool rentals to, you know, like Home Depot and and Lowe's

755
00:33:58,240 --> 00:34:02,200
and even the automotive stores let you rent tools.

756
00:34:02,200 --> 00:34:06,360
But you know, there's some tools if they're not highly specialized, it's just better to

757
00:34:06,360 --> 00:34:07,360
have on hand.

758
00:34:07,360 --> 00:34:09,240
And that's where kind of Harbor Freight really comes in.

759
00:34:09,240 --> 00:34:11,600
I've bought a lot of stuff from Harbor Freight.

760
00:34:11,600 --> 00:34:17,000
And if I were, you know, if I were an electrician, I'm not buying my tools for electricianing

761
00:34:17,000 --> 00:34:20,120
from Harbor Freight because those are going to get used all the time.

762
00:34:20,120 --> 00:34:21,120
Right.

763
00:34:21,120 --> 00:34:23,640
But if you're a homeowner or somebody who's just trying to build out your collection,

764
00:34:23,640 --> 00:34:27,480
so you've got enough stuff to do enough stuff and they're not going to see heavy, heavy

765
00:34:27,480 --> 00:34:31,280
use, there's absolutely nothing wrong with Harbor Freight.

766
00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:34,040
So not a sponsor, by the way.

767
00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:36,640
Yeah, not a sponsor for the listeners.

768
00:34:36,640 --> 00:34:40,560
I would not buy Harbor Freight insulated screwdrivers or anything like that.

769
00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:45,160
I would still get I would just go to the Home Depot and get the standard Klein insulated

770
00:34:45,160 --> 00:34:49,760
screwdriver set, which for 40 bucks, you can get the main four.

771
00:34:49,760 --> 00:34:53,440
It's like a quarter inch blade, eighth inch or not an eighth inch.

772
00:34:53,440 --> 00:34:54,440
It's like three sixty.

773
00:34:54,440 --> 00:34:57,800
It's a cabinet blade, a number two Phillips and a number two square.

774
00:34:57,800 --> 00:35:00,480
And those are the sizes you need to do everything.

775
00:35:00,480 --> 00:35:01,480
Basically.

776
00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:05,600
Oh, that was the whole point of me trying to tell you the laptop story, Mike, is my

777
00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:09,280
Klein insulated little screwdriver that came in the kit you got me.

778
00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:10,280
Oh, yeah.

779
00:35:10,280 --> 00:35:11,280
Hell yeah.

780
00:35:11,280 --> 00:35:12,280
Yeah, that's a great little little tool.

781
00:35:12,280 --> 00:35:13,280
Yeah, fantastic.

782
00:35:13,280 --> 00:35:14,280
Yeah.

783
00:35:14,280 --> 00:35:15,280
Yeah.

784
00:35:15,280 --> 00:35:19,440
That popped everything right out and, you know, it's insulated and then it has one of

785
00:35:19,440 --> 00:35:21,960
my favorite features of screwdrivers.

786
00:35:21,960 --> 00:35:25,740
I think that's like the only one that I have that has this feature on it is the end cap

787
00:35:25,740 --> 00:35:30,080
that spins like where your hand goes so you can just do your fingers and spin, spin, spin.

788
00:35:30,080 --> 00:35:32,640
So that's a proper electronic screwdriver.

789
00:35:32,640 --> 00:35:33,640
It's nice.

790
00:35:33,640 --> 00:35:34,640
Yeah.

791
00:35:34,640 --> 00:35:35,640
I was so stoked when I saw those kids.

792
00:35:35,640 --> 00:35:37,360
I was like, I bought everyone they had in the store.

793
00:35:37,360 --> 00:35:40,360
I'm not going to lie.

794
00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:43,720
Because I'm one of those guys, I guess.

795
00:35:43,720 --> 00:35:44,720
Yeah.

796
00:35:44,720 --> 00:35:48,000
So I will tell you the extractor set that I got.

797
00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:52,400
It's right here and it came in a really nice little like plastic case that closes and then

798
00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:58,600
it's got the sizes all lined up, but it's a THOSIF, T-H-O-S-A-F and it's a THOSIF extractor

799
00:35:58,600 --> 00:35:59,600
set.

800
00:35:59,600 --> 00:36:05,760
One side has a drill and the other side has the extractor and these both the drill and

801
00:36:05,760 --> 00:36:09,840
the extractor go counterclockwise or lefty loosey.

802
00:36:09,840 --> 00:36:10,840
Yeah.

803
00:36:10,840 --> 00:36:11,840
It'd be lefty or whatever.

804
00:36:11,840 --> 00:36:12,840
Yeah.

805
00:36:12,840 --> 00:36:13,840
They're inversed.

806
00:36:13,840 --> 00:36:14,840
Yeah, they're inversed.

807
00:36:14,840 --> 00:36:15,840
Yeah.

808
00:36:15,840 --> 00:36:19,880
I think it was fairly inexpensive, but that worked like a charm for me.

809
00:36:19,880 --> 00:36:24,800
So also not a sponsor, but as long as we're talking a little bit about tools and stuff,

810
00:36:24,800 --> 00:36:27,000
like that was well worth it.

811
00:36:27,000 --> 00:36:28,000
Yep.

812
00:36:28,000 --> 00:36:29,960
Oh, I wanted to give a shout out.

813
00:36:29,960 --> 00:36:37,840
So my employer provides me with tools and I have a Blue Point regular half inch socket

814
00:36:37,840 --> 00:36:40,200
set and three eighths regular socket set.

815
00:36:40,200 --> 00:36:43,160
And then I have a Snap-on impact set.

816
00:36:43,160 --> 00:36:46,480
And they're like $500 for these sets.

817
00:36:46,480 --> 00:36:47,840
They're extremely expensive.

818
00:36:47,840 --> 00:36:48,840
Yeah.

819
00:36:48,840 --> 00:36:52,160
And I got Snap-on ratcheting wrenches.

820
00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:57,360
That's a $500 set and all these crazy like top of the line tools.

821
00:36:57,360 --> 00:36:59,160
And I don't really use them often.

822
00:36:59,160 --> 00:37:00,160
Yeah.

823
00:37:00,160 --> 00:37:01,160
Right.

824
00:37:01,160 --> 00:37:04,840
Like I use like three sizes and that's it, but they buy the whole set.

825
00:37:04,840 --> 00:37:08,560
And I have a three eighths Snap-on impact set too.

826
00:37:08,560 --> 00:37:09,560
Okay.

827
00:37:09,560 --> 00:37:13,240
The only thing that provided me for a half inch ratchet is from Harbor Freight.

828
00:37:13,240 --> 00:37:16,960
It's the half inch Pittsburgh swivel head ratchet.

829
00:37:16,960 --> 00:37:17,960
Okay.

830
00:37:17,960 --> 00:37:19,560
And it's like 25 bucks.

831
00:37:19,560 --> 00:37:22,920
And the thing is incredible.

832
00:37:22,920 --> 00:37:25,920
I would have poo-pooed it if I hadn't have used it.

833
00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:29,200
I broke one after five years of using it.

834
00:37:29,200 --> 00:37:33,320
I like it so much I went to the store and bought one for myself when I had a 25% off

835
00:37:33,320 --> 00:37:34,320
coupon.

836
00:37:34,320 --> 00:37:35,320
Oh, nice.

837
00:37:35,320 --> 00:37:40,400
But if you have a half inch socket set at home, anybody listening, go to Harbor Freight

838
00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:45,040
and get that damn swivel head socket or swivel head ratchet.

839
00:37:45,040 --> 00:37:46,040
It's awesome.

840
00:37:46,040 --> 00:37:47,040
Okay.

841
00:37:47,040 --> 00:37:48,040
Yeah.

842
00:37:48,040 --> 00:37:49,040
They're great.

843
00:37:49,040 --> 00:37:52,360
I'm using them on like two inch nuts at work.

844
00:37:52,360 --> 00:37:53,360
Okay.

845
00:37:53,360 --> 00:37:56,200
And I'm tightening them tight, you know?

846
00:37:56,200 --> 00:37:57,920
And yeah, they're great for 20 bucks.

847
00:37:57,920 --> 00:37:58,920
You can't go wrong.

848
00:37:58,920 --> 00:37:59,920
Yeah.

849
00:37:59,920 --> 00:38:02,280
I don't know about the smaller ones, but I know the half inch one's good.

850
00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:03,280
Okay.

851
00:38:03,280 --> 00:38:04,280
Yeah.

852
00:38:04,280 --> 00:38:05,720
I'm going to go with the half inch because I think my...

853
00:38:05,720 --> 00:38:09,200
I've just got a Stanley set and I think it's the three eighths.

854
00:38:09,200 --> 00:38:11,520
I had a three eighth set for years.

855
00:38:11,520 --> 00:38:12,520
That's all I needed.

856
00:38:12,520 --> 00:38:13,520
Yeah.

857
00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:17,240
But I do have some sockets that are the one inch.

858
00:38:17,240 --> 00:38:19,600
So that's why I've been picking up all the adapters and stuff, you know?

859
00:38:19,600 --> 00:38:23,960
Because the adapters are inexpensive, the size uppers or downers.

860
00:38:23,960 --> 00:38:24,960
It wouldn't be bad.

861
00:38:24,960 --> 00:38:30,680
And if it's a highly recommended from Mike, it wouldn't be bad to have one because I have

862
00:38:30,680 --> 00:38:32,440
the adapters now to go up and down.

863
00:38:32,440 --> 00:38:38,520
So like I say, I couldn't believe that my employer was providing this at the time on

864
00:38:38,520 --> 00:38:39,520
my head.

865
00:38:39,520 --> 00:38:42,440
I was like, this is like a POS Harbor Freight Tool.

866
00:38:42,440 --> 00:38:46,080
I have this Harbor Freight Tool with a $500 impact set.

867
00:38:46,080 --> 00:38:47,360
Like what the hell is going on?

868
00:38:47,360 --> 00:38:48,360
Yeah.

869
00:38:48,360 --> 00:38:49,360
But it's great.

870
00:38:49,360 --> 00:38:50,360
It actually, it's great.

871
00:38:50,360 --> 00:38:54,240
They have a, I think it's a Bauer, like B-A-U-E-R.

872
00:38:54,240 --> 00:38:59,560
And I got a cordless drill from there for, I don't know, birthday or Christmas or something.

873
00:38:59,560 --> 00:39:01,120
And that thing is great.

874
00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:06,640
I use, I have a Black and Decker cordless drill as well, but I always go for the Harbor

875
00:39:06,640 --> 00:39:07,640
Freight one.

876
00:39:07,640 --> 00:39:08,640
It's just as nice.

877
00:39:08,640 --> 00:39:09,640
Yeah.

878
00:39:09,640 --> 00:39:10,640
Some of their stuff is good.

879
00:39:10,640 --> 00:39:11,640
Yeah.

880
00:39:11,640 --> 00:39:16,160
And I bought a Harbor Freight circular saw and it comes with a guide and a laser sight.

881
00:39:16,160 --> 00:39:17,640
And that's been working just fine.

882
00:39:17,640 --> 00:39:22,600
You know, light use, I'm not building like Noah's Ark or anything, but you know, when

883
00:39:22,600 --> 00:39:23,600
I need to cut something.

884
00:39:23,600 --> 00:39:24,600
Yeah.

885
00:39:24,600 --> 00:39:29,200
I have a 20 volt circular saw that I've never needed anything more than that at home.

886
00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:30,200
Yeah.

887
00:39:30,200 --> 00:39:36,520
I think I rock the Harbor Freight folding plastic saw horses too.

888
00:39:36,520 --> 00:39:38,320
And those have been really good.

889
00:39:38,320 --> 00:39:39,920
I got my ratchet clamps there.

890
00:39:39,920 --> 00:39:40,920
Half the price.

891
00:39:40,920 --> 00:39:41,920
Oh yeah.

892
00:39:41,920 --> 00:39:45,440
The ratchet clamps and they're like the, the saw horses are half the price of like the

893
00:39:45,440 --> 00:39:47,520
Menards plastic saw horses.

894
00:39:47,520 --> 00:39:48,520
So.

895
00:39:48,520 --> 00:39:49,520
Oh, sure.

896
00:39:49,520 --> 00:39:50,520
Yeah.

897
00:39:50,520 --> 00:39:51,520
It's a saw horse.

898
00:39:51,520 --> 00:39:52,520
Well worth that.

899
00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:53,520
Yeah.

900
00:39:53,520 --> 00:39:54,520
Yeah.

901
00:39:54,520 --> 00:39:57,200
Like a rule of thumb is that if it's really simple, it's probably okay to get it at Harbor

902
00:39:57,200 --> 00:39:58,200
Freight.

903
00:39:58,200 --> 00:39:59,880
You know, you don't need.

904
00:39:59,880 --> 00:40:03,600
I don't need to snap on a impact socket set at home.

905
00:40:03,600 --> 00:40:06,560
I just don't for 50 bucks.

906
00:40:06,560 --> 00:40:13,240
Well, for my entire impact set and all my extensions and swivels and adapters and everything,

907
00:40:13,240 --> 00:40:16,480
I'm probably a hundred dollars in including the ratchet.

908
00:40:16,480 --> 00:40:17,480
You know what I mean?

909
00:40:17,480 --> 00:40:18,480
Yeah.

910
00:40:18,480 --> 00:40:20,640
And it's all the Pittsburgh stuff and it does me fine.

911
00:40:20,640 --> 00:40:25,320
You know, I don't, I'm going to use it on leg bolts and on the lug nuts of my truck,

912
00:40:25,320 --> 00:40:26,320
you know?

913
00:40:26,320 --> 00:40:27,320
Yep.

914
00:40:27,320 --> 00:40:30,880
So if you're going, if you're going Harbor Freight, you have to at least buy the Pittsburgh

915
00:40:30,880 --> 00:40:31,880
line.

916
00:40:31,880 --> 00:40:32,880
Probably.

917
00:40:32,880 --> 00:40:36,920
There's a couple more expensive lines, but they have a couple cheaper lines too.

918
00:40:36,920 --> 00:40:41,360
And I know I told you this story when you were here, Mike, but I think it bears repeating

919
00:40:41,360 --> 00:40:44,680
is and I think, I believe this set came from Harbor Freight.

920
00:40:44,680 --> 00:40:49,320
I can't be sure because it was unbranded, but it was a little socket set in a plastic

921
00:40:49,320 --> 00:40:52,680
thing and it had, you know, the socket handle, the socket wrench handle.

922
00:40:52,680 --> 00:40:56,640
And then it had around the outside, it had, you know, kind of the standard metric and

923
00:40:56,640 --> 00:40:58,640
standard SAE sizes.

924
00:40:58,640 --> 00:41:03,000
And then it had, you know, the adapter for the real small ones and stuff.

925
00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:05,960
Well, I was working on my car and I think I was using the 10 millimeter because that's

926
00:41:05,960 --> 00:41:07,520
what every everything needs, right?

927
00:41:07,520 --> 00:41:12,120
You always need more 10 millimeter sockets for whatever reason they disappear.

928
00:41:12,120 --> 00:41:13,880
And so I was changing sockets.

929
00:41:13,880 --> 00:41:17,640
I set the socket like on the hood of the car, you know, somewhere under the hood and it

930
00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:21,420
rolled off the car, you know, so I don't know what, what do you think Mike, like a three

931
00:41:21,420 --> 00:41:22,420
foot fall?

932
00:41:22,420 --> 00:41:23,420
Yeah.

933
00:41:23,420 --> 00:41:27,280
I think it was a three and a half foot fall from my car, it fell onto the driveway and

934
00:41:27,280 --> 00:41:30,400
this socket cracked in half.

935
00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:31,400
You told me that.

936
00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:32,400
Yeah.

937
00:41:32,400 --> 00:41:38,400
So, you know, I think going Harbor Freight, at least by Pittsburgh, I think that's a decent,

938
00:41:38,400 --> 00:41:40,500
decent line that they have.

939
00:41:40,500 --> 00:41:41,920
Don't buy anything less than that.

940
00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:44,920
So if you see the Pittsburgh and then you see something that's like $5 cheaper, just

941
00:41:44,920 --> 00:41:45,920
buy the Pittsburgh.

942
00:41:45,920 --> 00:41:50,960
And the Pittsburgh, you can get the whole color coded set for, I don't know, if you're

943
00:41:50,960 --> 00:41:54,320
not getting the impact stuff, I think they're like 13 bucks or something like that.

944
00:41:54,320 --> 00:41:55,320
It's pretty reasonable.

945
00:41:55,320 --> 00:41:56,320
Yeah.

946
00:41:56,320 --> 00:41:58,920
And you can get, I think I've got, I think it's the Pittsburgh and they're color coded

947
00:41:58,920 --> 00:42:02,040
too, like red and the blue, the deep sockets.

948
00:42:02,040 --> 00:42:03,040
Yep.

949
00:42:03,040 --> 00:42:05,960
Cause I've actually used like deep sockets for the win.

950
00:42:05,960 --> 00:42:06,960
Oh, for sure.

951
00:42:06,960 --> 00:42:09,120
Like a lot of things need a deep socket.

952
00:42:09,120 --> 00:42:10,120
Yeah.

953
00:42:10,120 --> 00:42:11,120
Yeah.

954
00:42:11,120 --> 00:42:15,960
I, I have a gear wrench quarter inch socket set that I acquired when I was working in

955
00:42:15,960 --> 00:42:16,960
North Dakota.

956
00:42:16,960 --> 00:42:17,960
Yeah.

957
00:42:17,960 --> 00:42:19,280
And that thing is great.

958
00:42:19,280 --> 00:42:23,680
I don't think I would spend the money on that now for sure.

959
00:42:23,680 --> 00:42:24,680
Okay.

960
00:42:24,680 --> 00:42:25,680
Yeah.

961
00:42:25,680 --> 00:42:29,080
May I take a brief aside here?

962
00:42:29,080 --> 00:42:31,480
And I want to talk about the cigar a little bit.

963
00:42:31,480 --> 00:42:36,120
I have a bit of the wrapper and this, I don't think this is going to affect anything or

964
00:42:36,120 --> 00:42:41,040
impact anything, but a bit of the wrapper that appears to have not maybe been glued

965
00:42:41,040 --> 00:42:42,120
or sealed down.

966
00:42:42,120 --> 00:42:45,600
So I've got like a bit of the leaf wrapper kind of peeling up.

967
00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:46,600
Yes.

968
00:42:46,600 --> 00:42:48,920
About half halfway between the ash and the end there.

969
00:42:48,920 --> 00:42:53,040
So I don't know if that's just cause it was under the, under the label.

970
00:42:53,040 --> 00:42:59,560
Interestingly enough, I have the same thing and it's personally flapping up and it's about

971
00:42:59,560 --> 00:43:00,880
where the wrapper was.

972
00:43:00,880 --> 00:43:01,880
Yeah.

973
00:43:01,880 --> 00:43:02,880
It's like a partial flap.

974
00:43:02,880 --> 00:43:03,880
Okay.

975
00:43:03,880 --> 00:43:04,880
Yeah.

976
00:43:04,880 --> 00:43:05,880
Yeah.

977
00:43:05,880 --> 00:43:09,760
I just, I wanted to call that out because you know, sometimes when we're smoking these,

978
00:43:09,760 --> 00:43:13,720
we encounter weird things like there's that one cigar that I had to use like a penny nail

979
00:43:13,720 --> 00:43:18,680
or something and poke to get the airflow in cause it was packed too tight and it's not

980
00:43:18,680 --> 00:43:23,680
necessarily indicative of every stick of that, that brand or that, that line.

981
00:43:23,680 --> 00:43:26,560
But it's interesting that yours is doing it too, Mike.

982
00:43:26,560 --> 00:43:29,880
And it's underneath the, where the wrapper was the exact location.

983
00:43:29,880 --> 00:43:31,640
And I did not take my wrapper off early.

984
00:43:31,640 --> 00:43:34,440
I wait until they're warm to take them off.

985
00:43:34,440 --> 00:43:35,440
Yep.

986
00:43:35,440 --> 00:43:39,320
So I waited till mine slid cause it, you know, it'll slide once it warms up.

987
00:43:39,320 --> 00:43:40,320
Yep.

988
00:43:40,320 --> 00:43:41,320
Interesting.

989
00:43:41,320 --> 00:43:42,320
Yeah.

990
00:43:42,320 --> 00:43:43,320
Yeah.

991
00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:47,080
That means, but just something to be aware of, I guess, if you're smoking this and it

992
00:43:47,080 --> 00:43:48,320
doesn't, it doesn't bother me.

993
00:43:48,320 --> 00:43:51,720
I just wanted to call it out because we are a cigar podcast.

994
00:43:51,720 --> 00:43:54,920
So I figured we should mention it.

995
00:43:54,920 --> 00:43:55,920
Yep.

996
00:43:55,920 --> 00:44:01,960
I'm sure I mentioned it to you, but I bought a plastic welder this year and that's been

997
00:44:01,960 --> 00:44:06,400
one of my major things this summer is I've been going plastic welding crazy this, this

998
00:44:06,400 --> 00:44:07,960
last spring and summer.

999
00:44:07,960 --> 00:44:08,960
Okay.

1000
00:44:08,960 --> 00:44:10,440
So plastic welder, Mike.

1001
00:44:10,440 --> 00:44:12,440
So I got mine from Harbor Freight.

1002
00:44:12,440 --> 00:44:13,440
There's one online.

1003
00:44:13,440 --> 00:44:17,600
It's like a gin poor maiden, you know, I'm sure made in America.

1004
00:44:17,600 --> 00:44:20,040
I think that's the capital of Iowa.

1005
00:44:20,040 --> 00:44:21,720
Yeah, exactly.

1006
00:44:21,720 --> 00:44:23,280
That's better.

1007
00:44:23,280 --> 00:44:28,520
But it just, you heat up the plastic when it, when plastic either breaks or cracks, depending

1008
00:44:28,520 --> 00:44:35,200
on the type, you can melt plastic back into it and it'll reform like a new piece of plastic.

1009
00:44:35,200 --> 00:44:37,680
And it does not look like a million dollars, right?

1010
00:44:37,680 --> 00:44:40,240
It looks like exactly what I just described.

1011
00:44:40,240 --> 00:44:42,760
Like somebody with plastic welded it.

1012
00:44:42,760 --> 00:44:48,800
But I fixed my mailbox, that little plastic tab on the mailbox broke, fixed that.

1013
00:44:48,800 --> 00:44:49,800
Oh sure.

1014
00:44:49,800 --> 00:44:55,160
I fixed my freaking garbage can because the garbage was not picked up and Sarah made a

1015
00:44:55,160 --> 00:45:00,280
complaint and then for about a month, the garbage guy was maybe accidentally on purpose

1016
00:45:00,280 --> 00:45:02,400
throwing the garbage like into the ditch.

1017
00:45:02,400 --> 00:45:03,400
Okay.

1018
00:45:03,400 --> 00:45:06,240
Until the garbage can got cracked.

1019
00:45:06,240 --> 00:45:07,240
Yeah.

1020
00:45:07,240 --> 00:45:13,960
So I had to fix that and then I got a big plastic two wheel wheelbarrow that the previous

1021
00:45:13,960 --> 00:45:16,440
owner had used in the winter to haul wood.

1022
00:45:16,440 --> 00:45:18,480
So it was cracked everywhere.

1023
00:45:18,480 --> 00:45:23,480
So I plastic welded the whole shell of that and repaired it back to normal and I got it

1024
00:45:23,480 --> 00:45:24,480
for free.

1025
00:45:24,480 --> 00:45:28,080
So all I was out was the man hours to like fix it.

1026
00:45:28,080 --> 00:45:29,840
I think I've done some plastic welding.

1027
00:45:29,840 --> 00:45:35,400
So I have a 3D printer and sometimes depending on like your file or the print or whatever,

1028
00:45:35,400 --> 00:45:40,200
and I've gotten it dialed in now, but sometimes you get gaps in the print.

1029
00:45:40,200 --> 00:45:44,900
And so I was reading how to fill those in and what I ended up doing was taking a piece

1030
00:45:44,900 --> 00:45:48,960
of the filament and attaching it into my Dremel tool.

1031
00:45:48,960 --> 00:45:52,640
And then you just spin the Dremel tool and put it in there and the friction kind of melds

1032
00:45:52,640 --> 00:45:54,640
and melts that plastic into there.

1033
00:45:54,640 --> 00:45:55,640
Sure.

1034
00:45:55,640 --> 00:45:56,640
Similar concept.

1035
00:45:56,640 --> 00:45:57,640
Yeah.

1036
00:45:57,640 --> 00:45:58,640
Okay.

1037
00:45:58,640 --> 00:45:59,640
Yeah.

1038
00:45:59,640 --> 00:46:00,640
So yeah, well, this is like a solder iron.

1039
00:46:00,640 --> 00:46:01,640
It doesn't look great, but you can sand it.

1040
00:46:01,640 --> 00:46:02,640
So right.

1041
00:46:02,640 --> 00:46:03,640
Yeah.

1042
00:46:03,640 --> 00:46:05,760
You can do it with like a triangle tip.

1043
00:46:05,760 --> 00:46:07,440
You can do it with a solder iron.

1044
00:46:07,440 --> 00:46:10,760
And I was doing it with a soldering iron, but it looked so bad.

1045
00:46:10,760 --> 00:46:15,440
I ended up just spending 20 bucks and getting the proper tool.

1046
00:46:15,440 --> 00:46:20,360
And then you can buy plastic rods right at Harbor Freight with different plastic types.

1047
00:46:20,360 --> 00:46:22,800
And man, it saved me a ton of money this summer.

1048
00:46:22,800 --> 00:46:27,400
It's very time consuming to fix stuff, but whatever, you know, I can spend.

1049
00:46:27,400 --> 00:46:31,520
Sounds like a good winter project, you know, like just bring stuff into the house and plastic

1050
00:46:31,520 --> 00:46:32,520
weld.

1051
00:46:32,520 --> 00:46:33,520
Absolutely.

1052
00:46:33,520 --> 00:46:34,520
Yeah.

1053
00:46:34,520 --> 00:46:35,520
Bring the wheelbarrow into the entryway.

1054
00:46:35,520 --> 00:46:36,520
The house.

1055
00:46:36,520 --> 00:46:37,520
Yeah.

1056
00:46:37,520 --> 00:46:38,520
Into the kitchen.

1057
00:46:38,520 --> 00:46:39,520
Exactly.

1058
00:46:39,520 --> 00:46:40,520
That's exactly what would happen.

1059
00:46:40,520 --> 00:46:42,920
On the nice dining room table under the stained glass chandelier.

1060
00:46:42,920 --> 00:46:45,920
Oh yeah.

1061
00:46:45,920 --> 00:46:51,840
So that's like I say, that wheelbarrow probably took me three evenings to fix, but whatever,

1062
00:46:51,840 --> 00:46:54,000
I got a wheelbarrow for free out of it.

1063
00:46:54,000 --> 00:46:55,000
So.

1064
00:46:55,000 --> 00:46:56,000
Yep.

1065
00:46:56,000 --> 00:46:57,000
Did you pick a different color plastic?

1066
00:46:57,000 --> 00:46:58,000
So it was kind of like that.

1067
00:46:58,000 --> 00:46:59,000
The Japanese.

1068
00:46:59,000 --> 00:47:00,000
Absolutely.

1069
00:47:00,000 --> 00:47:01,000
Yeah.

1070
00:47:01,000 --> 00:47:02,000
Absolutely.

1071
00:47:02,000 --> 00:47:03,800
I used white rods on it.

1072
00:47:03,800 --> 00:47:04,800
Oh nice.

1073
00:47:04,800 --> 00:47:05,800
So yeah.

1074
00:47:05,800 --> 00:47:09,920
And the garbage can is like dark green and then the rod I used was light green.

1075
00:47:09,920 --> 00:47:12,720
So you can see exactly where I fixed it.

1076
00:47:12,720 --> 00:47:13,720
Oh yeah.

1077
00:47:13,720 --> 00:47:14,720
Yeah.

1078
00:47:14,720 --> 00:47:15,720
Okay.

1079
00:47:15,720 --> 00:47:16,720
Whatever.

1080
00:47:16,720 --> 00:47:17,720
I don't care.

1081
00:47:17,720 --> 00:47:18,720
What do you do?

1082
00:47:18,720 --> 00:47:21,160
That's one of those tools where it's like, I would never have one of those unless I owned

1083
00:47:21,160 --> 00:47:22,160
a house for sure.

1084
00:47:22,160 --> 00:47:23,160
Yeah.

1085
00:47:23,160 --> 00:47:24,160
Well, that's the thing.

1086
00:47:24,160 --> 00:47:28,320
Like if you're renting, whether it's a house or an apartment or whatever, like you don't

1087
00:47:28,320 --> 00:47:33,400
do any of the maintenance, so you don't really need anything more than like, oh, I need a

1088
00:47:33,400 --> 00:47:39,560
screwdriver to change the batteries in this thing or whatever, but you don't really need

1089
00:47:39,560 --> 00:47:40,560
a whole lot of tools.

1090
00:47:40,560 --> 00:47:41,560
Right.

1091
00:47:41,560 --> 00:47:43,840
You know, pick picture hanging maybe.

1092
00:47:43,840 --> 00:47:44,840
More or less.

1093
00:47:44,840 --> 00:47:47,960
Changing the bulb in your microwave or oven or whatever.

1094
00:47:47,960 --> 00:47:48,960
Right.

1095
00:47:48,960 --> 00:47:56,040
I always turned all the screws on my receptacles and on my switches to vertical because a lot

1096
00:47:56,040 --> 00:48:00,080
of these apartments, the owner of the apartment is doing all the maintenance and they're not

1097
00:48:00,080 --> 00:48:01,080
professionals.

1098
00:48:01,080 --> 00:48:05,360
And it drives me batty when you go into a house and all the screws are turned every

1099
00:48:05,360 --> 00:48:06,360
which way.

1100
00:48:06,360 --> 00:48:09,000
It's like, yeah, they're there to look nice.

1101
00:48:09,000 --> 00:48:12,880
They're not there to like do anything other than be aesthetically pleasing.

1102
00:48:12,880 --> 00:48:13,880
Okay.

1103
00:48:13,880 --> 00:48:17,480
As I'm, as you're saying that I'm looking at the plate that we put in, well, and I was

1104
00:48:17,480 --> 00:48:19,260
the last one to touch this one.

1105
00:48:19,260 --> 00:48:21,040
So they're going vertical now.

1106
00:48:21,040 --> 00:48:22,040
Yes.

1107
00:48:22,040 --> 00:48:29,000
Mike's not going to OCD freak out when he comes over next time.

1108
00:48:29,000 --> 00:48:33,320
To me, it also, it's incredible how long projects at home take.

1109
00:48:33,320 --> 00:48:35,060
It's too long, too long.

1110
00:48:35,060 --> 00:48:37,760
It always takes more time than I think it's going to.

1111
00:48:37,760 --> 00:48:41,920
And the other, the other problem with home projects is even if you think you're done,

1112
00:48:41,920 --> 00:48:46,500
there's another one that's either already happening or just happened or is about to

1113
00:48:46,500 --> 00:48:49,080
happen that you're going to have to do.

1114
00:48:49,080 --> 00:48:56,520
So yeah, man, I think, yeah, what do you think for the, I think like the, the standard home,

1115
00:48:56,520 --> 00:49:00,760
home things are the standard tools you need is you probably don't need a whole lot of

1116
00:49:00,760 --> 00:49:05,600
like screwdrivers, but you need one of those, what are they, the four and ones or whatever,

1117
00:49:05,600 --> 00:49:10,920
six and one like husky or something screwdrivers that have the two different sizes of the flat

1118
00:49:10,920 --> 00:49:13,720
heads and the Phillips drives?

1119
00:49:13,720 --> 00:49:18,640
Sarah, I got her a Klein, of course.

1120
00:49:18,640 --> 00:49:20,720
It's screwdriver that's ratcheting.

1121
00:49:20,720 --> 00:49:21,720
Okay.

1122
00:49:21,720 --> 00:49:26,400
And in the handle, it's got all the bits and they're like just drill bits.

1123
00:49:26,400 --> 00:49:28,880
Like, yeah, impact bits.

1124
00:49:28,880 --> 00:49:31,800
The drive and one of those is pretty much all you need.

1125
00:49:31,800 --> 00:49:32,800
Yeah.

1126
00:49:32,800 --> 00:49:33,800
I had her use them.

1127
00:49:33,800 --> 00:49:36,180
One of my, probably a socket set and a hammer.

1128
00:49:36,180 --> 00:49:38,240
And then you probably set for most things.

1129
00:49:38,240 --> 00:49:39,240
Yeah.

1130
00:49:39,240 --> 00:49:42,880
If, if you don't have any equipment, probably three socket settle, do you?

1131
00:49:42,880 --> 00:49:48,400
And if you do, like I say at my place, I use the quarter inch set and the half inch set

1132
00:49:48,400 --> 00:49:50,440
and I don't use a three, it's set at all.

1133
00:49:50,440 --> 00:49:56,640
Other than for like, I have a specialty tools like tap sets and like ratchet taps and all

1134
00:49:56,640 --> 00:50:00,920
these things that I have because of my profession that I use at home.

1135
00:50:00,920 --> 00:50:06,520
And that's got a three is drive, but the average person doesn't really need a tap set or a

1136
00:50:06,520 --> 00:50:07,520
die set.

1137
00:50:07,520 --> 00:50:09,600
You know, I have like a tap and die set.

1138
00:50:09,600 --> 00:50:10,600
Yeah.

1139
00:50:10,600 --> 00:50:16,320
When I've got a, you know, I've got a, a rivet machine or not a machine, but like it's the

1140
00:50:16,320 --> 00:50:17,320
handle and you squeeze it.

1141
00:50:17,320 --> 00:50:19,240
You can put the rivets in, you can rivet metal together.

1142
00:50:19,240 --> 00:50:25,040
But I don't really use that, but you could, you know, like a box cutter and then something

1143
00:50:25,040 --> 00:50:30,240
that I have really, really, really been enjoying and using a lot this summer with my projects

1144
00:50:30,240 --> 00:50:31,240
and stuff.

1145
00:50:31,240 --> 00:50:36,040
And it's a Pittsburgh, the magnetic, a little magnetic bowl to put the screws in and stuff

1146
00:50:36,040 --> 00:50:38,120
that you take out of whatever you're taking out of.

1147
00:50:38,120 --> 00:50:39,760
And you just, you put it right in there.

1148
00:50:39,760 --> 00:50:40,760
It's magnetic.

1149
00:50:40,760 --> 00:50:41,760
They stick.

1150
00:50:41,760 --> 00:50:44,480
They don't roll around the driveway or the workbench.

1151
00:50:44,480 --> 00:50:48,560
And that I've been using that more than almost anything else, or I should say that comes

1152
00:50:48,560 --> 00:50:51,920
with me on everything that I do, everything I work on.

1153
00:50:51,920 --> 00:50:58,120
So yeah, one of the things that I picked up after buying the house was, and it's a Harbor

1154
00:50:58,120 --> 00:50:59,120
for Eight.

1155
00:50:59,120 --> 00:51:00,120
It's a Quinn.

1156
00:51:00,120 --> 00:51:02,080
It's like a seven in one painter's spatula.

1157
00:51:02,080 --> 00:51:03,080
Oh, okay.

1158
00:51:03,080 --> 00:51:06,600
And it's like a hard, it's like two and a half inches and it's hard.

1159
00:51:06,600 --> 00:51:09,440
And it's got like a little hook to clean off your paint rollers.

1160
00:51:09,440 --> 00:51:10,440
We've got the same one.

1161
00:51:10,440 --> 00:51:11,440
We've got the same one.

1162
00:51:11,440 --> 00:51:12,440
I think.

1163
00:51:12,440 --> 00:51:13,440
Yeah.

1164
00:51:13,440 --> 00:51:14,440
That thing is awesome.

1165
00:51:14,440 --> 00:51:17,600
And it's really good with caulking because there's a lot of caulking around here to do.

1166
00:51:17,600 --> 00:51:18,600
Yep.

1167
00:51:18,600 --> 00:51:19,600
It makes it a lot easier to work.

1168
00:51:19,600 --> 00:51:20,600
Oh yeah.

1169
00:51:20,600 --> 00:51:21,600
And take care of things.

1170
00:51:21,600 --> 00:51:24,280
And you can scrape paint off if you're repainting.

1171
00:51:24,280 --> 00:51:25,280
It's nice.

1172
00:51:25,280 --> 00:51:26,280
Yeah.

1173
00:51:26,280 --> 00:51:28,680
It's a scraper and it's got a couple other like paint tools on it.

1174
00:51:28,680 --> 00:51:29,680
Yep.

1175
00:51:29,680 --> 00:51:30,680
It's got functions.

1176
00:51:30,680 --> 00:51:31,680
Yeah.

1177
00:51:31,680 --> 00:51:33,960
You can use it for mudding too, like drywall mudding.

1178
00:51:33,960 --> 00:51:34,960
Yep.

1179
00:51:34,960 --> 00:51:35,960
Oh yeah.

1180
00:51:35,960 --> 00:51:39,680
We ended up using a little like thinner, what do you call them?

1181
00:51:39,680 --> 00:51:41,920
The drywall spatula thing or whatever.

1182
00:51:41,920 --> 00:51:42,920
Because that.

1183
00:51:42,920 --> 00:51:43,920
Yeah.

1184
00:51:43,920 --> 00:51:44,920
Yep.

1185
00:51:44,920 --> 00:51:45,920
Yeah.

1186
00:51:45,920 --> 00:51:48,400
But there's no reason you couldn't use that thing if that's all you had.

1187
00:51:48,400 --> 00:51:52,280
You know, if you're not doing a big drywall project, you don't need to go get specialty

1188
00:51:52,280 --> 00:51:53,280
tools.

1189
00:51:53,280 --> 00:51:54,280
Right.

1190
00:51:54,280 --> 00:51:55,280
Yeah.

1191
00:51:55,280 --> 00:51:57,080
I got it to do the decks because I needed a scraper.

1192
00:51:57,080 --> 00:52:00,520
And I was like, well, this thing will do the job.

1193
00:52:00,520 --> 00:52:01,520
Yep.

1194
00:52:01,520 --> 00:52:02,720
And it definitely good.

1195
00:52:02,720 --> 00:52:08,320
I think that most people should get, should invest in a expensive caulking gun, not a

1196
00:52:08,320 --> 00:52:12,840
cheap old one, like the good one that you can get for like 15 bucks.

1197
00:52:12,840 --> 00:52:13,840
Okay.

1198
00:52:13,840 --> 00:52:18,760
Because then you actually have trigger control and it's got a release on the handle so it

1199
00:52:18,760 --> 00:52:21,720
doesn't continue to come out after you're done.

1200
00:52:21,720 --> 00:52:22,720
Yep.

1201
00:52:22,720 --> 00:52:23,720
Yeah.

1202
00:52:23,720 --> 00:52:24,720
Yeah.

1203
00:52:24,720 --> 00:52:26,840
I think I've got a cheap one, but I have to do a little bit of caulking yet.

1204
00:52:26,840 --> 00:52:29,760
But if I end up doing more, I'll get a better one.

1205
00:52:29,760 --> 00:52:30,760
It all depends.

1206
00:52:30,760 --> 00:52:31,760
Like I have to caulk.

1207
00:52:31,760 --> 00:52:34,440
I had to re-caulk everything on the outside of the house.

1208
00:52:34,440 --> 00:52:35,560
Oh, sure.

1209
00:52:35,560 --> 00:52:41,680
And I got like a wood planking around the basement and I had to fix some of that with

1210
00:52:41,680 --> 00:52:43,240
black caulk, you know.

1211
00:52:43,240 --> 00:52:44,240
Okay.

1212
00:52:44,240 --> 00:52:45,240
Yeah.

1213
00:52:45,240 --> 00:52:46,240
And other things like that.

1214
00:52:46,240 --> 00:52:47,240
Yep.

1215
00:52:47,240 --> 00:52:48,240
And a power sprayer, man.

1216
00:52:48,240 --> 00:52:51,360
That's one of the things that I, yeah, I got my pressure washer.

1217
00:52:51,360 --> 00:52:54,600
I cleaned up some of the concrete and it looks sharp.

1218
00:52:54,600 --> 00:52:55,600
Yeah.

1219
00:52:55,600 --> 00:52:56,600
I want to get a pressure washer.

1220
00:52:56,600 --> 00:52:59,600
I've got a sandblaster, but I don't want to use it because then there's like sand everywhere,

1221
00:52:59,600 --> 00:53:00,600
I guess.

1222
00:53:00,600 --> 00:53:01,600
So I don't know.

1223
00:53:01,600 --> 00:53:04,600
I should pick up a pressure washer because that would be handy.

1224
00:53:04,600 --> 00:53:09,200
Because when we first moved in, we pressure washed all of the sidewalks and stuff here

1225
00:53:09,200 --> 00:53:12,280
because it was, everything was kind of gross because it hadn't been upkept.

1226
00:53:12,280 --> 00:53:14,160
But you can clean more than just sidewalks.

1227
00:53:14,160 --> 00:53:16,680
I mean, you can clean anything with that.

1228
00:53:16,680 --> 00:53:17,680
Clean your house.

1229
00:53:17,680 --> 00:53:22,880
You can, like, unfortunately the decks here are painted, so it'll get paint off deck.

1230
00:53:22,880 --> 00:53:26,520
You clean it to use as cleanup equipment and vehicles and things.

1231
00:53:26,520 --> 00:53:27,520
Yep.

1232
00:53:27,520 --> 00:53:28,520
It's just handy all around.

1233
00:53:28,520 --> 00:53:32,000
I have a Sun Joe, like the cheap one off Amazon.

1234
00:53:32,000 --> 00:53:35,560
I got a little Sun Joe kind of like dust buster thing.

1235
00:53:35,560 --> 00:53:36,560
Oh, okay.

1236
00:53:36,560 --> 00:53:37,560
I've been using that quite a bit.

1237
00:53:37,560 --> 00:53:41,800
Well, because you know, like our daughter's three, so she's getting a lot better about

1238
00:53:41,800 --> 00:53:43,800
keeping food on the table and plate.

1239
00:53:43,800 --> 00:53:48,440
But I remember when she was like, what did I have to like, it was always okay.

1240
00:53:48,440 --> 00:53:49,440
She's done eating.

1241
00:53:49,440 --> 00:53:51,680
Let's break the vacuum out and vacuum everything up.

1242
00:53:51,680 --> 00:53:54,080
But and I was like, oh, just a little dust buster would be nice.

1243
00:53:54,080 --> 00:53:55,560
So this is a little Sun Joe.

1244
00:53:55,560 --> 00:53:56,560
It's made for cars.

1245
00:53:56,560 --> 00:54:00,740
Like it's an automotive one, but it's small, USB-C rechargeable.

1246
00:54:00,740 --> 00:54:02,320
So cheap, but it works.

1247
00:54:02,320 --> 00:54:03,320
Oh yeah.

1248
00:54:03,320 --> 00:54:09,720
One of the things that we invested in was a Hoover smartwash carpet cleaner, a stand

1249
00:54:09,720 --> 00:54:10,720
up one.

1250
00:54:10,720 --> 00:54:13,840
And that thing is a lifesaver.

1251
00:54:13,840 --> 00:54:15,660
We don't have carpet.

1252
00:54:15,660 --> 00:54:19,240
We have rugs, but the grubs look filthy.

1253
00:54:19,240 --> 00:54:23,340
You know, they would look absolute shit if we didn't have that thing.

1254
00:54:23,340 --> 00:54:29,240
And when you wash it, it's like black sludge that comes out of the carpet.

1255
00:54:29,240 --> 00:54:30,320
It's insane.

1256
00:54:30,320 --> 00:54:35,720
So one of these days, maybe I'll bring it to down to the cities and you can do your

1257
00:54:35,720 --> 00:54:36,720
carpets.

1258
00:54:36,720 --> 00:54:42,960
It's pretty dry afterwards because it's cleans it out and man, it's shocking how much stuff

1259
00:54:42,960 --> 00:54:45,800
comes out of the carpet, you know?

1260
00:54:45,800 --> 00:54:48,880
And it keeps our rugs looking good.

1261
00:54:48,880 --> 00:54:52,640
You know, you spend money on this crap and then it starts to look like ratty.

1262
00:54:52,640 --> 00:54:55,680
And yeah, I'm not into that.

1263
00:54:55,680 --> 00:54:58,880
Sarah's mom has a carpet shampoo.

1264
00:54:58,880 --> 00:54:59,880
We've borrowed.

1265
00:54:59,880 --> 00:55:02,080
I think we, I think we borrowed it.

1266
00:55:02,080 --> 00:55:05,640
I think Sarah wanted to do it when we moved out of one of the apartments that we'd for

1267
00:55:05,640 --> 00:55:09,920
sure get our deposit back, which I felt was overkill because they're going to do it anyway,

1268
00:55:09,920 --> 00:55:10,920
hopefully.

1269
00:55:10,920 --> 00:55:15,560
But we did it in the house when we moved in because it was, you know, not kept up in the

1270
00:55:15,560 --> 00:55:17,800
vest of standards.

1271
00:55:17,800 --> 00:55:19,600
And you know, like the carpet was all kind of new.

1272
00:55:19,600 --> 00:55:21,200
It was just the contractor special though.

1273
00:55:21,200 --> 00:55:25,200
So all the people traipsing through with their shoes and stuff and we still did it, you know,

1274
00:55:25,200 --> 00:55:26,600
the carpet shampooer.

1275
00:55:26,600 --> 00:55:31,300
But yeah, the one that Sarah's mom has, you definitely have to leave the windows open

1276
00:55:31,300 --> 00:55:32,800
and let it air out when you're done.

1277
00:55:32,800 --> 00:55:35,800
Yeah, this one is like, it gets all the water out.

1278
00:55:35,800 --> 00:55:40,760
You know, it's not, I'm assuming the one that Sarah's mom has is more industrial than this.

1279
00:55:40,760 --> 00:55:46,000
This is like a home appliance, you know, but it works great.

1280
00:55:46,000 --> 00:55:47,000
That's good.

1281
00:55:47,000 --> 00:55:48,000
Yeah.

1282
00:55:48,000 --> 00:55:50,040
Well, my fingers are kind of burning here, man.

1283
00:55:50,040 --> 00:55:51,040
Really?

1284
00:55:51,040 --> 00:55:52,200
You got, you got done faster than I did.

1285
00:55:52,200 --> 00:55:54,560
I still have like a inch and a quarter left.

1286
00:55:54,560 --> 00:55:55,560
Okay.

1287
00:55:55,560 --> 00:55:57,520
This one's, this one's been good, man.

1288
00:55:57,520 --> 00:55:58,520
It is good.

1289
00:55:58,520 --> 00:55:59,520
Yeah.

1290
00:55:59,520 --> 00:56:01,120
I recommend it to people who are already scar smokers.

1291
00:56:01,120 --> 00:56:03,040
I wouldn't, I wouldn't hand this to a newbie.

1292
00:56:03,040 --> 00:56:04,040
Yeah.

1293
00:56:04,040 --> 00:56:06,200
It's not the, the starter stick for sure.

1294
00:56:06,200 --> 00:56:09,760
No, no, it's not a starter stick, but it's spicy, not overly spicy.

1295
00:56:09,760 --> 00:56:10,760
Yeah.

1296
00:56:10,760 --> 00:56:14,080
It's not the spiciest we ever had, but it's a good level of spice.

1297
00:56:14,080 --> 00:56:17,240
Like it's a really nice, a nice flavor profile.

1298
00:56:17,240 --> 00:56:21,080
I didn't, I didn't, I don't think there's much of a change other than the spice got

1299
00:56:21,080 --> 00:56:22,560
more prominent as we went through.

1300
00:56:22,560 --> 00:56:23,560
Right.

1301
00:56:23,560 --> 00:56:24,560
Yeah.

1302
00:56:24,560 --> 00:56:25,560
Oh yeah.

1303
00:56:25,560 --> 00:56:26,560
Yeah.

1304
00:56:26,560 --> 00:56:27,560
It was satisfying for sure.

1305
00:56:27,560 --> 00:56:28,560
Yes.

1306
00:56:28,560 --> 00:56:29,560
And I'm glad I went with a lighter beer with this one.

1307
00:56:29,560 --> 00:56:30,560
Oh yeah.

1308
00:56:30,560 --> 00:56:32,240
I think it's a little bit more power or conflict.

1309
00:56:32,240 --> 00:56:33,240
Yes.

1310
00:56:33,240 --> 00:56:37,080
Or have like two kind of like spice heavy things or whatever, you know, sometimes you

1311
00:56:37,080 --> 00:56:39,280
get into situations like that.

1312
00:56:39,280 --> 00:56:40,280
Yeah.

1313
00:56:40,280 --> 00:56:41,920
I wouldn't want to drink like a Christmas ale.

1314
00:56:41,920 --> 00:56:42,920
No, man.

1315
00:56:42,920 --> 00:56:46,560
They got all like the pumpkin, Oktoberfest things out.

1316
00:56:46,560 --> 00:56:50,640
I'm like, uh, I'm not a huge pumpkin spice fan guy though.

1317
00:56:50,640 --> 00:56:55,960
So I mean, Oktoberfest beer doesn't mean it's pumpkin spice, but I just, it's kind

1318
00:56:55,960 --> 00:56:58,040
of like, I want the weather to match.

1319
00:56:58,040 --> 00:56:59,040
Right.

1320
00:56:59,040 --> 00:57:05,960
I can get into this later, but I do not like Oktoberfest beers at all.

1321
00:57:05,960 --> 00:57:12,320
And I don't like flavored beers unless it's like, I like Christmas beer, like this Christmas

1322
00:57:12,320 --> 00:57:13,320
spice beer.

1323
00:57:13,320 --> 00:57:14,320
Yeah.

1324
00:57:14,320 --> 00:57:15,320
Because it's not trying to be a flavor.

1325
00:57:15,320 --> 00:57:17,360
Like the mulled wine kind of stuff.

1326
00:57:17,360 --> 00:57:18,360
Like that is good.

1327
00:57:18,360 --> 00:57:21,280
I don't like pumpkin spice.

1328
00:57:21,280 --> 00:57:22,960
I don't like flavored beers.

1329
00:57:22,960 --> 00:57:26,720
I like sours, but I wouldn't, there's those that are flavored beer.

1330
00:57:26,720 --> 00:57:30,600
I do like the Natterdays though, and I would consider that a favorite beer.

1331
00:57:30,600 --> 00:57:31,600
Is that really a beer?

1332
00:57:31,600 --> 00:57:32,600
It's kind of like a lemonade beer.

1333
00:57:32,600 --> 00:57:33,600
But it's good though.

1334
00:57:33,600 --> 00:57:35,320
You were the one who told me about them, weren't you?

1335
00:57:35,320 --> 00:57:36,320
Yeah, it is good.

1336
00:57:36,320 --> 00:57:37,320
Yeah, I did.

1337
00:57:37,320 --> 00:57:38,320
Yeah, it's good.

1338
00:57:38,320 --> 00:57:39,320
Yeah.

1339
00:57:39,320 --> 00:57:40,320
Yeah.

1340
00:57:40,320 --> 00:57:41,320
Especially when it's natural ice.

1341
00:57:41,320 --> 00:57:43,320
I mean, it's like, yeah, it's pretty good.

1342
00:57:43,320 --> 00:57:44,320
Yeah.

1343
00:57:44,320 --> 00:57:47,280
I mean, it's not a truly white claw.

1344
00:57:47,280 --> 00:57:48,280
So that is right.

1345
00:57:48,280 --> 00:57:49,280
Yeah.

1346
00:57:49,280 --> 00:57:51,280
I'm not crushing any claws.

1347
00:57:51,280 --> 00:57:52,280
Yeah.

1348
00:57:52,280 --> 00:57:53,280
Yeah.

1349
00:57:53,280 --> 00:57:54,280
Yeah.

1350
00:57:54,280 --> 00:57:55,800
I don't like flavored beer, but I like the spice beer.

1351
00:57:55,800 --> 00:57:58,440
I don't know why, especially in Christmas time.

1352
00:57:58,440 --> 00:57:59,960
It's not trying to be a flavor.

1353
00:57:59,960 --> 00:58:02,480
It's just beer, dark beer with some spices on it.

1354
00:58:02,480 --> 00:58:04,720
It's trying to be a festive beer as well.

1355
00:58:04,720 --> 00:58:06,280
Yeah, I like it.

1356
00:58:06,280 --> 00:58:10,160
I don't like the cough syrup beers, where they put the fruity flavors in there and you're

1357
00:58:10,160 --> 00:58:11,640
like, is this cough syrup?

1358
00:58:11,640 --> 00:58:12,640
Yeah, no thanks.

1359
00:58:12,640 --> 00:58:13,640
I don't want-

1360
00:58:13,640 --> 00:58:14,640
Not my favorite.

1361
00:58:14,640 --> 00:58:20,240
Cherry vanilla flavored beer or anything weird like that.

1362
00:58:20,240 --> 00:58:25,000
I used to like the peanut butter chocolate porters, but I got real bad food poisoning

1363
00:58:25,000 --> 00:58:28,640
off of some, off of like a six pack of bottles.

1364
00:58:28,640 --> 00:58:29,640
Really?

1365
00:58:29,640 --> 00:58:32,480
It's just ever since then, I haven't been able to go back to them.

1366
00:58:32,480 --> 00:58:39,200
Recently, I was able to drink one, but the joy of those has forever been lost to me now.

1367
00:58:39,200 --> 00:58:45,240
My Sarah is a fanatic for the peanut butter flavored beer and I try them all.

1368
00:58:45,240 --> 00:58:49,880
There's a couple that I thought are good, but most of them just taste like burnt peanut

1369
00:58:49,880 --> 00:58:50,880
butter to me.

1370
00:58:50,880 --> 00:58:54,080
Well, it's like, and it tastes like artificial peanut butter or whatever.

1371
00:58:54,080 --> 00:58:59,680
It doesn't have the... Okay, so do we ever talk about peanut butter cups on this podcast?

1372
00:58:59,680 --> 00:59:00,680
I don't know.

1373
00:59:00,680 --> 00:59:01,680
Okay.

1374
00:59:01,680 --> 00:59:07,640
So one of my favorite little treats, let's say is Trader Joe's.

1375
00:59:07,640 --> 00:59:12,480
They have these tubs of dark chocolate peanut butter cups and you get them and you put them

1376
00:59:12,480 --> 00:59:14,720
in the freezer and they're really good.

1377
00:59:14,720 --> 00:59:19,080
I thought they were the best peanut butter cups in the world until Dev said, have you

1378
00:59:19,080 --> 00:59:21,120
tried the Aldi peanut butter cups?

1379
00:59:21,120 --> 00:59:24,480
Well, I hadn't because I don't really go to Aldi ever.

1380
00:59:24,480 --> 00:59:27,480
And it's weird whenever I tell people about these, they're like, where are they in the

1381
00:59:27,480 --> 00:59:28,480
store?

1382
00:59:28,480 --> 00:59:29,480
And I'm like, I don't know.

1383
00:59:29,480 --> 00:59:30,560
They're like, which Aldi did you go to?

1384
00:59:30,560 --> 00:59:31,560
Which aisle was it in?

1385
00:59:31,560 --> 00:59:32,560
I'm like, I don't know.

1386
00:59:32,560 --> 00:59:33,840
Just go find the peanut butter cups.

1387
00:59:33,840 --> 00:59:35,980
Aldi's are like the size of my garage.

1388
00:59:35,980 --> 00:59:38,280
You can find peanut butter cups.

1389
00:59:38,280 --> 00:59:39,280
It's the smallest store.

1390
00:59:39,280 --> 00:59:41,320
It's like slightly larger than a gas station.

1391
00:59:41,320 --> 00:59:43,120
You can find the peanut butter cups in this store.

1392
00:59:43,120 --> 00:59:44,120
I promise you.

1393
00:59:44,120 --> 00:59:49,960
They're not dark chocolate, but the chocolate has a snap to it when you bite in and the

1394
00:59:49,960 --> 00:59:54,720
peanut butter that they use is like the best peanut butter filling I've ever had in a peanut

1395
00:59:54,720 --> 00:59:55,720
butter cup.

1396
00:59:55,720 --> 00:59:56,720
Hmm.

1397
00:59:56,720 --> 00:59:59,840
So, and I think there's an Aldi's by you, man.

1398
00:59:59,840 --> 01:00:01,920
There is an Aldi's by me.

1399
01:00:01,920 --> 01:00:02,920
Okay.

1400
01:00:02,920 --> 01:00:03,920
Yes.

1401
01:00:03,920 --> 01:00:04,920
It's right next to the dollar general, I think.

1402
01:00:04,920 --> 01:00:07,920
No, I'm just kidding.

1403
01:00:07,920 --> 01:00:12,280
Anyway, so go pick up a bag of those if you'd like peanut butter cups or if Sarah likes

1404
01:00:12,280 --> 01:00:15,960
peanut butter cups, they're hands down the best peanut butter cups you can buy commercially.

1405
01:00:15,960 --> 01:00:21,240
Like if you went to like a chocolatier or I don't know what you would even call them,

1406
01:00:21,240 --> 01:00:25,640
like a place that does those like the chocolates and the things, like of course those are probably

1407
01:00:25,640 --> 01:00:30,400
going to be better, but you're not buying a big bag of those to put a new thing.

1408
01:00:30,400 --> 01:00:34,040
And one of my buddies also loves peanut butter like I do.

1409
01:00:34,040 --> 01:00:38,080
And I was telling him when I bought this, I was looking them up online and people online

1410
01:00:38,080 --> 01:00:41,240
were being like, okay, I will eat a whole bag of these.

1411
01:00:41,240 --> 01:00:43,540
Well, I bought a bag for me and a bag for him.

1412
01:00:43,540 --> 01:00:48,240
And we looked at the back and the serving sizes, like the amount of calories you would

1413
01:00:48,240 --> 01:00:51,840
consume eating a full bag in one sitting is like ungodly.

1414
01:00:51,840 --> 01:00:57,960
And I'm like, I would be sick like a quarter of the way through eating a bag.

1415
01:00:57,960 --> 01:00:59,760
So I can't believe people will just down the...

1416
01:00:59,760 --> 01:01:01,320
I mean, I guess I can believe it, but...

1417
01:01:01,320 --> 01:01:02,320
You've seen people.

1418
01:01:02,320 --> 01:01:03,320
I mean...

1419
01:01:03,320 --> 01:01:04,320
I've seen people.

1420
01:01:04,320 --> 01:01:06,920
I've been out in the world.

1421
01:01:06,920 --> 01:01:07,920
I saw somebody...

1422
01:01:07,920 --> 01:01:11,280
All the peanut butter cups, they're in a little bag, like a resealable bag.

1423
01:01:11,280 --> 01:01:15,960
And I think about the Aldis versus the Trader Joe's is the Trader Joe's have that black

1424
01:01:15,960 --> 01:01:19,440
plastic cup wrapper thing on them, but they don't have the foil on them.

1425
01:01:19,440 --> 01:01:21,760
But the Aldis ones don't have anything on them.

1426
01:01:21,760 --> 01:01:23,640
You can just scoop them out of the bag and eat them.

1427
01:01:23,640 --> 01:01:25,640
So less waste.

1428
01:01:25,640 --> 01:01:26,640
So that's good.

1429
01:01:26,640 --> 01:01:28,640
Well, reduce, reuse, recycle.

1430
01:01:28,640 --> 01:01:29,640
Yeah.

1431
01:01:29,640 --> 01:01:30,640
So cool.

1432
01:01:30,640 --> 01:01:31,640
Yeah.

1433
01:01:31,640 --> 01:01:33,560
Well, I suppose that's it for the cigars because you're done, I'm assuming.

1434
01:01:33,560 --> 01:01:34,560
Yeah, I'm done.

1435
01:01:34,560 --> 01:01:35,560
Yeah.

1436
01:01:35,560 --> 01:01:40,360
I just put it out because I tried to get a bit more off of it, but the last tiny little

1437
01:01:40,360 --> 01:01:42,120
bit was getting a little sour.

1438
01:01:42,120 --> 01:01:48,440
So not overly so, but as they tend to do when you try and suck them down to the fingernail.

1439
01:01:48,440 --> 01:01:49,800
It happens that way.

1440
01:01:49,800 --> 01:01:50,800
Yes.

1441
01:01:50,800 --> 01:01:51,960
Well, thanks for listening.

1442
01:01:51,960 --> 01:01:52,960
Be safe.

1443
01:01:52,960 --> 01:02:13,620
Cheers.
