Piñata vs Tannerite
My son decides that Monday after the end of the school year is an appropriate day for his piñata to meet it's destiny, given the character he made it after. 2lb charge of tannerite at our family's ranch. He ends up needing help, and it takes a few tries with a fresh scope that has not been zero'd.

Unclogging a shower drain with a DIY sewer jetting kit
Переглядів 342 тис.9 років тому
EXCUSE THE VIDEOS PAUSES This was probably due to errors my phone and SD card were having that I found out about after the fact. I have found my new favorite thing to unclog drains with. A 3100 PSI pressure washer and a sewer jetting kit. When my drain previously clogged chemicals and snakes didn't work. So I bought a sewer jetter off ebay and went for a hail mary before involving a plumber. Th...

Were you recording this on the side of the freeway? Holy fuck
Any links on the hose and spray nozzle?
So I've only used this pressure washer one time. ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxfQauTxLT0JLSvqkq10rD79TU4k0Vz8zP The one time I used it, it worked great. I recently had new siding installed but kept the old gutters and small areas surrounding my house that weren't replaced so they looked horrible and dirty because of the new siding. I needed to get it cleaned asap. When I used the pressure washer, man it just melted all the dirt and grime that was on those areas of my house. I used that krud kutter soap and it was over after that. Easy to assemble, feels durable, very simple to use. Also, I purchased a used one to save money and there was absolutely nothing wrong with it. I want to get more use out of it so I think I'll be washing the cars and update this comment as time goes on.
Very helpful 👍🏻👍🏻
Over kill
went to lowes got everything i need plus 100 foot for my french drains
Never made it past the ptrap. Missed cleaning the remaining 90 percent.
Tank you. Good knowledge.
Hi mate, thanks for the detailed video. Not sure if I'll get a response considering it's been 8 years since you posted this, but my question is... How can I set a channel to not broadcast anything? My problem is that I am listening to a frequency which I and many others stay tuned into, but I don't want any kids getting their hands on the radio and potentially speaking to hundreds of people. I don't want to disable the whole radio, I just want to disable a specific channel. Please can you give me different options? Someone mentioned I can change the duplex mode to "off", which should apparently only disable that channel from talking to anyone. Thanks mate.
Thank you for this video. It really helped me out.
Thanks. For a beginner it was excellent.
Thank you so much for explaining how to adjust the speed variable; if the nut is up too far vs back too close. This is exactly what I was trying to understand. I'm hoping this will fix my issue. I'll update when I'm finished! Thanks again!
Cool,Many ways to skin a cat.
Do You know there's a trap?
My concern with using this indoors is it blowing water back in the house
I am thinking of getting one of these to clean my kitchen sink drain, but it has quite a few 90 degree bends. Will this get through the 90 degree bends ok in 1-1/2” drain pipe?
Yes there fantastic. I own quad plex and the pipes need to be replaced but it being in a concrete slap, the only way to do that is pipe relining. I bought two pressures washers a Gas one from Walmart and a Sunjoe commercial electric . For the main lines I use the gas one and 1/4 Jetter hose and for the kitchen sink I use the 1/8 jetter hose . Sense I live in one unit myself I have saved thousands of dollars and have to clean the main line once a year. The sewers need to be replaced on my street which I think they are getting around to start doing. Its much better than a Auger and its not hard to go around corners the things power pulls it around most of them .
where did you buy the kit? what is the model of the kit?

Good team work!
How long did it take to fill the tank?
does this snake make 90 deg turns in a 1.5" pipe?
What is the name of this? It is great for anti-theft. What is the principle? Can it be DIY?
did you mention the importance of Duplex On/Off?
It's a Honda, does she ever not play nicely?
I just bought 3 UV-5R from Amazon 7-25-2021 One has a white label in the batt compartment It WILL transmit on FRS and GMRC freqs the other 2 look like newer model have blue labels they will NOT transmit FRS or GMRC. I guess the new ones are blocked. I used CHIRP to program all 3 the same
LMAO, I got recommended this vide and I just cleaned out my french drain with the exact Ryobi pressure washer. I wore flip flops too.
You might wanna contact Sloan from that pressure assist vessel because it could be recalled and might have chances of exploding
When my Tub and Kitchen sink get draining so slow that they need to be unclogged I've just been using a plunger and it works great.
Is there a way to copy what on the 888s and UV-5r
For gods sake: Just choose a county!!!
This was very helpful. Thank you.
I would use rubber gloves this connects directly to your toilet its the same as if your doing the main drain
This is exactly what I was thinking of doing
Usually the shower and toilet drains are tied together in the bathroom. That hose just went down there. Don't bite your fingernails. Go wash your hands.
Hi! DIYer here, not in any way professional.. but idk if Leslie pool and spa lube is food grade. Also I'd consider wearing sterile gloves or use hand sanitizer to prevent cross contamination during reinstallation after sanitizing system
Very good explanation, thanks
Thanks for that.
I have a 20 year old Dometic AC that will run fine for about 30 minutes and then it will start short cycling off and on every three minutes or so. It has a hard start and starts up no problem. The unit gets cold, about 20 degrees difference between intake and outlet. The condenser never ices up. All the coils on evaporator and condenser are clean. However when you started speaking about the thermister in the run capacitor and shutting down I thought maybe this was my problem. Could my run capacitor cause it to short cycle? Or did you mean the actual thermister temp probe.
after it starts turn off the choke?
What is the name of the kit? Where did you get it?
I use this one and it works like a charm. Paid for itself in one use: Sewer Jetter - 50 FT JetSnake Drain Cleaner for Your Gas Pressure Washer
When you import the various lists from various sources, the window that pops up with them is where you position where they'll drop onto your list... its done with the + or - 1, 10, 100 buttons along the bottom.. ie, to drop the new list into your existing list starting at slot 46 you'd click the +10 button 4 times and the +1 button 6 times. The slot numbers on the left should show what they'll end up being in your final list before you add them.

TERRIBLE DESCRIPTION OF HOW TO ADUST THIS!! WHAT A HEAP OF CRAP YOU SPEAK!!
Those that can do those that can't criticise.
I have tried your idea but my sewer jet will not feed thru like it did in your case. could you please tell me what products your are using exactly and I will try with the same again? I really liked your idea and don't want to give up unless I have tried what you have used. Your help is appreciated!
I have done home sewer jetting and wasn't able to go through the pipes in the house. I ended up going up on my roof, using the roof exhaust vent to feed the jetter down and that did the trick.
Because of this apocalypse I wanted new shoes and a six pack of uv5rs. I've had plenty of shoes but the radios not so much. 3 o'clock am, that's when I was finally able to get my little ACER laptop to communicate. An epic struggle for certain but how many apocalypses do we get amiright?
