This video is brought to you by Sporland. Quality, integrity and tradition. All right. I Was called out on a beer walk and not working.

They're saying it's high in temp. The outside thermometer says like 50 something degrees I'll show you right now. mine says 43 but can kind of hear what I think might be Vapor Going through the TXV there's like this hissing sound. We come around to the back.

there is no ice on the coils. coils look good. so let's go up onto the roof. the condensing units up there.

We'll figure out what's going on. This is this roof. Where look at that. There's a dang fire sprinkler in the roof hatch to be so careful hugging the back wall, you'll knock yourself out and bust a fire sprinkler.

All right, my equipment. it's over here. This is my beer walking condensed unit tucked over here. Yeah, condensing unit is running but I can't see the sight glass.

so I'm gonna get the condensing unit cover pulled off and we'll have a look at it all right? So I got the cover off I Don't think I need to go too much further. The sight glass is flashing. so sight glass. A lot of people ask me why am I always looking at the sight glass? Okay, the sight glass is a window into the system at the point that it's installed so that one is installed on the liquid line.

After it comes out of the receiver goes through the dryer. Then it goes to the Side Glass What that's doing is that's telling us the state of the refrigerant. It's a window into the system at that point. At that point, right there, it should be all liquid and the Side Glass should be clear.

Now keep in mind a Clear Sight glass can also look like an empty sight glass. or an empty sight glass can look like a Clear Sight glass. So that's where paying attention to saturation, temperatures, and system vitals can come into play. Okay, now this one downstairs at the evaporator, it sounded like it was hissing to me, feeding vapor and that would be an indicator of low refrigerant charge.

And I'll find out once. I put service gauges on it. We never just look at the sight glass and say that's our problem. We put gauges on and we evaluate everything from that point.

Okay, so this one more than likely is going to be a low charge. Now in this situation, what I'm going to do, It's Friday It's 3 30 p.m on June 2nd and we're about to go into overtime at 4 pm. I'm going to look for a giant leak. As long as I don't find anything giant, then I'm going to gas and go and we're going to come back next week when we're not on overtime.

When it's not a weekend and we're going to repair the league, find it and go from there. Now This equipment is a little bit older, the customer may not want to repair it. it's hard to say. Okay, so I'm gonna go get some service gauges and some 404a refrigerant and we'll check it out and see what we can figure out.

So mainly I want to look up here because everything after it leaves the receiver can be repaired with all the refrigerant in the system. So anything after this point right here, going all the way down on the liquid line, going to the evaporator, coming back up on the suction line can all be repaired by pumping the system down. So as long as I don't see oil everywhere in here and I don't hear a big leak or see any signs of a big leak on the high side of the system basically from the discharge of the compressor to the right here the king valve coming out of the receiver I cannot fix anything right there with refrigerant in the system. So the point that I'm trying to make is I'm evaluating everything and I'm looking and I'm not seeing any signs of a giant leak on the high side of the system.

So that means that I can go ahead and top off the charge assuming that's all that it is. We'll find out once I put gauges on it and then I can look for a leak after that because it can all be repaired via pumping the system down. Got gauges on there? very important. Make sure you turn digital gauges whether it be smart probes.

Doesn't matter what brand turn digital gauges on and make sure they're zeroed out before you apply them to the system. Oftentimes changing in elevation and different things like that with the type of pressure transducers they use, you might see negative 3 Positive Three Four PSI 5 PSI on there with nothing in the system. If you put your gauge your hoses on there, then you turn them on after the fact, you wouldn't know and then your pressures could be off. so keep that in mind.

Okay, but I zeroed everything out. It's currently about 80 84 degrees right now and you can see my liquid saturation temperature is pretty close to ambient says 80 on there right now. it's kind of jumping around. Um, and my vapor saturation is really low.

So ideally we're going to see a liquid saturation a 25 to 30 degrees over ambient, but that is not how we charge. These are all just Vital Signs We're going to clear the sight glass. paying attention to the vapor and the liquid saturation. Always make sure there's no ice and the condenser is not dirty before you get going.

Okay, this condenser I can see through it so it's not bad. Certainly everything needs some love, but we're going to get some gas in it for now Before I came up I weighed my cylinder down at the van I rode on it 30 pounds. that's how much the cylinder weighed total. Okay, this is a brand new Drama 404a refrigerant and they typically, well, they have 24 pounds of refrigerant and I'm brand new.

These drums typically weigh about six pounds when they're empty, so that makes sense. It weighs 30 pounds full with the plastic still on it. The tank weighs six pounds That leaves 24 pounds of refrigerant in it. Okay, uh, there was someone that anyways.

that's a long story, but there was someone that got into a disagreement with because they posted on social media a while back that the government was ripping us off and all the refrigerant manufacturers were ripping us off because there wasn't 30 pounds of refrigerant in there. It's just called a 30 pound cylinder, but it doesn't necessarily have 30 pounds. Now, back in the day when you were dealing with just R12 R22 and r502 yeah, you'd get your full 30 pounds out of them. Okay, but nowadays I don't even know about that with 502.

I know, with 12 and 22, you got 30 pounds. But anyways, it changes because every refrigerant is going to have um, uh, what's the word I'm looking for? Uh, I can't think of that. You guys are probably screaming at me. You know what I'm talking about.

But um, oh, the every refrigerant is going to have a different density Factor right? So depending on the type of refrigerant and 404, you can only safely put 24 pounds of refrigerant because you have to leave room for expansion in that particular tank. Now, theoretically they could sell me a drum with 30 pounds of 404, but the tank wouldn't be the standard size that fits in all of our vans and all of our cargo trucks and stuff, right? So they try to package everything in the same size tanks. Just a little food for thought there. So I will tell you guys a little story.

I'm charging this I'm paying attention to the sight glass and paying attention to my saturation temperatures as I'm doing this. Okay, so uh, about 10 12 years ago we got a phone call from a contractor who is in a desperate situation. He was building a couple restaurants. Okay, well he was doing the air conditioning and refrigeration work for a couple restaurants.

They had a general contractor running the job. These were brand new builds. It's a major chain across the country. Not going to name the chain, this had nothing to do with them.

but uh, this contractor called me because he quote or bidded on all the submitted a bid on the install for the refrigeration and air conditioning. but he's just an air conditioning contractor in. Southern California He doesn't do any refrigeration work but yet he bidded on all the work right? So he called me and he's like dude I Need someone? I need you guys to do the refrigeration work They had packaged uh, coal pack equipment, ice machines that the customer had bought and they needed it all installed. So they basically needed me to hang the coils.

they built the boxes. they needed me to uh, um, install their equipment. Okay, so uh, you know we don't really do that, but we were slow at the time so I said sure, we'll do it. We did one of the jobs and then they gave us like eight more.

Okay, so we had a whole bunch of jobs building these restaurants, doing all the refrigeration work. Well, the last two we did them, we got paid. Everything was good. Now last actually last three that we did, we didn't get paid and the contractor filed bankruptcy.

What actually happened was they made some major mistakes. They built the boxes, the walk-in boxes but they didn't uh on the last one, one of the last ones, he didn't level the floor before he built the box. Then they built the Box they opened the restaurant and then he called me desperate because they had ice forming because the floors weren't level. It's just long story short, they made some major mistakes and the contractor ended up filing bankruptcy and uh, didn't pay me on the last three jobs.

Now this was not the restaurant, this was not the general contractor. I was working for a sub that was subbing the workout to me. So uh, whatever, bankruptcy, you know it's a couple Grand And it was one of those things where it was like really to hire a lawyer to fight that you know, and sometimes you got to make judgment calls like that and we just decided just whatever. dude, he filed bankruptcy.

We really had no recourse there. So long story short, this particular restaurant that I'm at right now, which was not one of those I Found out that he did this restaurant too and he did it all himself. He did the refrigeration, he did the air conditioning install. Again, he's not selling the equipment, he's just doing the installs.

This is not the same chain. this is a whole different thing. but I found out after the fact that he did the work and all the refrigeration I Kid you not I had to redo everything on all the walk-ins. They had everything wired wrong in the walk-in cooler.

It has two evaporator coils and not this one, but the big one has two evaporator coils. One of them was never wired in, the fans were running, but the solenoid was never wired in. So the customer had been operating for like six months with just one evaporator coil. Like also shows you how much they oversized their equipment.

but yeah, I had to put defrost clocks and everything like it was a mess. It's just kind of funny. You know that I found out after the fact he just like the typical stories you hear, he started a new company, put it in his sister's name, different name and you know started working at it again and I heard it was just nothing but headaches. After he did that, we are just about clear we're still flashing a little bit.

These sight glasses are not very easy to see, so notice that our saturation temperatures are coming up big time. Okay, and uh, Vapor saturation is coming up and we're starting to violently. Flash I Know it's hard because these sight glasses are difficult to see so it's taking a little bit of gas. It's definitely thirsty.

You can see the sight glass just cleared up and what do you know? look at our saturation temperatures much higher. So I would say it's 80. I think I'm getting some weird discharge air so it's about 80 degrees so we're looking pretty good. so it's about 21 degrees over ambient.

I'll put another thermometer over here and see what the accurate temperature is. I guess I can just use this and move it over here. Let's see what that says. Yeah, it's about 80 degrees.

See if it drops any lower, it's kind of hovering so it looks like we're going to run about 20 degrees over ambient. We have a clear sight glass, so again, those are always rules of thumb and it really depends on how the equipment's sized. If they oversize the condenser, then you're going to have lower saturation temperatures. If they oversized evaporators, oversized expansion valves, it's going to affect saturation temperatures too.

But our sight glasses staying consistently clear and uh, box is going to be satisfying here any minute because it was at like 43 degrees, so it's not going to take long to get down to 10.. So I'm going to go down there, have a look and see if there's any big leaks going on down there. We're already down to Temp I Shut the equipment off. Uh, I don't know why, but they went with an electric heat on this guy.

so the condensing unit controls the power to this. but I shut it off while it was still running. And that's really important because if you shut it off like the evaporative fan motors, when it's satisfied, then there's not going to be refrigerant pressure in the low side or it's going to be really low. Okay, so I shut it off while it was running and we're going to do a leak search on this guy.

Just a quick one to see if there's anything obvious. So I've got my leak detector right here. We're using the Stratus today and we're going to go through and see what we can figure out when I'm doing leak searches. I Always start from the bottom.

I'm already picking something up because the refrigerant is going to fall. Okay, we're gonna work our way up seeing if we keep picking it up as we go higher. just keep going higher. keep going higher and seeing if we pick it up.

If we pick see, it's still picking something up even high. So we keep going higher and this is our ways to kind of trace it out. So now we're working down. We're up in here not seeing anything and we're just working our way down back in here.

Kind of tricky and there's definitely something all in there. So I'm going to pinpoint and then we're gonna get some big blue soap bubbles on it to see if we can pinpoint where this guy's at. All right. You look right there.

we can see one leak and that's the beauty of the big blue soap bubbles. It shows micro leaks right? Tiny little leaks. I'm not really seeing anything else. Um, we're definitely going to LEAP search the rest of the unit.

I will Mark that one with my leaked with my marker. so that way we don't forget it's there and that's not one that I'm gonna fix today. So the box is down to Temp I'm going to put it back together and we're gonna make a game plan and come back out with all the parts that we need. All right I am back.

It has been a couple days, three or four days and uh I was loading up my van I'm at the location and I left my big blue here so I'm like looking for it going. Where's my Big Blue? getting ready to bring it in so I can finish the job. Lived there it's uh, sitting where I left it. Uh, three days ago.

So go figure. All right. Well I'm gonna go upstairs. we're gonna get this guy pumped down and then we're gonna come down here and try to weld on this leak and change the dryer and go from there.

All right. I Came up onto the roof, took the cover off the condensing unit. Um, it was running so that's a good thing. So I just shut it off the power switch, took the cover off, got my gauges applied.

We are going to actuate this uh King valve on the receiver. so I'm going to loosen the packing. So that way we extend the life of the uh the valve right there. So right down in here is a packing gland.

You loosen it to actuate the stem and then you tighten it back because it will leak. So now that it's loosened, we can go ahead and actuate the stem and we are going to perform a front seat of this valve which is a pump down. Okay, well which is going to cause a pump down. so we're gonna front seat this guy.

now. One thing that I will say that I do like about these cold pack units is they have a Schrader on the king valve stem the service fitting. Uh, so that way you can actually take your gauge off if you need to. That's kind of cool.

just keep that in mind when you're doing an evacuation though. it is going to restrict the flow and it's kind of leaking right now because of that loosened packing gland, so you just want to tighten that back up when you're done. Just like that. And then now we can turn the system on and we're going to watch it pump down now.

depending on the setup here, it's funny I can always hear these check valves I can hear noise on that check valve as it's running. Um, okay, this particular one, it looks like the the orientation of this. So I take back what I said about the Schrader The orientation of this is on this side of the system. So really, you have no way of accessing the high side of the system while you're pumping it down to know whether or not the system is overcharged or you have an over pressure.

So you're just relying on the high pressure control at the uh, cut out right there to cut it out if the pressure was too high in the system because notice the high side is pumping down. so that's because it's technically on the outlet side of the receiver. So yeah, I was kind of happy because I saw the Schrader thinking that you can put your gauges on there. but yeah, it is what it is.

So now when we pull the evacuation, we're just pulling it on the line set in the evaporator, we have no idea what's going on in the system. All right. So we are pumped down. Um, at this point I am going to, uh, go ahead and open the system up and go downstairs.

We got to open it up to atmosphere. Okay, so that way there's room as we're brazing the system up. You want room for the the pressure that's going to expand as you heat it up. there's going to be a little bit of refrigerant down in the evaporator and you need to have somewhere for that refrigerant to vent to.

So that way as you're heating it up, it's not pressurizing the system if that makes sense. Okay, so we just open it to atmosphere which is considered a de minimis loss EPA allows it. We've done everything we can to pump it down basically. so at this point it's time to grab all the stuff that I need and head downstairs and we're going to get this evaporator fixed.

Hopefully all right. What we're going to do is we're going to get in here with a die grinder and I'm going to try to clean this up as best as possible and then we'll get sandpaper if we have to. Also, thank you! Always inspect, get it as clean as possible, make sure. Oh yeah, that's nice and good.

So because you never know what's going to happen when you unsweet it. Once you start unsweating it, you want to make sure the whole area is cleaned up and then that way your solder will flow really really well all over the joint, all over. Everything looks like I can do a little bit better in there. so I'm going to give it a little bit more with the die grinder.

Thank you! Always want to have a wet towel in the general area in case there's a fire or there's a problem. I Don't really see anything in here that's going to get damaged from heat I'm not going to be heating around the expansion valve really, so we should be good to go. Let's get this guy lit up now. I'm using a very small tip I tend to use a zero tip for most of the stuff that I do.

that's why sometimes I get a little lazy and I don't change it when I'm working on the bigger stuff so it might take me a little bit longer to braise. All right. One thing I wish that the knobs weren't so sensitive on these guys. Let me look in here.

I Just goobered it up all inside there. It went all the way around the back side. It's going to be difficult to show you that. So like I said, I'm going to put it all back together, make sure everything's good, then we'll go up top and get on the dryer and all that good stuff up there so we're gonna sand everything.

I Still don't know exactly how everything's gonna go here, sand it up, and then start cutting components out. And once we cut the components out, it'll give me a better idea as to how this new one's going to be piped. I Have a feeling we're going to be losing a uh, a service valve right here, which is fine. Getting a small tubing, cutter or imp is really important.

It helps you a lot. So this service valve is really not needed because there's a king valve right here so it just makes it easier. I'm really surprised that with the manufacturers always cutting costs, why do they still put that there swirling catch-all see y'all side glass dryer I Like the flare, we're going with the 16 cubic inch. remember it always has the sizing information on the side of the box.

so when you take the Caps off, make sure you clean the flare threads. You don't want anything in them, just a steel bristle brush. Sight glass is going to go on the outlet of the dryer. just put a little bit of Nylog on there I Guess I got to be smarter than the wrenches, right? Okay, we're gonna try to flare it first and hope that I can bend it after I Play it so the hope at least let's hope that it works the way that I want it to.

Thank you Still have mixed feelings I Like this, it's just a little weird getting used to. not bringing out my old school flaring block, but it really does make a nice flare. Really, really nice. Looks good for my house.

Now let's see if I can bend it short enough. Wow. looks like it might just be perfect. Yeah, yeah, that's nice I like it I like it a lot.

Mark this guy for a switch. Looks good to me. So this is the Navac Power Swager. No affiliation with Navac.

It's pretty good, but on 3 8 and basically anything smaller than 7 8, you have to stop it and rotate it or it'll split the line I had it happen a lot of times. so I have to stop it, move it and start it again. Uh, you can get all the stuff from Truetechtools.com if you use my offer code big picture. You get a 80 discount on checkout on most items and when you do that, I get a small commission, so it kind of helps to support the channel.

All right? So I'm using the flaring tool and the power expander tool from Navac tools. The next question? Oh man, that kind of skates. I'm gonna have to expand this one. Well, this suction insulation is trash so I'm just gonna rip it off and we'll re-insulate it when I'm done.

That'll give you room to expand the liquid liner. Do what I got to do for that. That's good though because I can use some of these scrap pieces. so I'm a big fan of sanding everything before I swage it and flare.

It just makes it easier. So in this situation, I'm making a straight fitting. so I don't got to put the flare on first. They have a little gauge on there I Certainly don't think that you have to have this tool.

I Worked with a hand switch orbital flaring or a flaring tool orbital flaring tool for 20 plus years of my career and it works fine. New technology I Like it. Always inspect the flares even if it's a pen that does it or whatever. Okay, foreign.

We're done brazing two connections. There was no need to protect anything because it's far enough away from everything, but it was no big deal. Always inspect the brains joints, get your mirror out, make sure they look good. stuff happens.

I'm a fan of my braised joints. need to have a solid bead all the way around them. I Don't want to see gaps or cracks I realize if you go to Brazen school, they're going to teach you to not worry about filling the outside so much. I I Don't mind paying for extra solder.

it's my company. I Tell the same thing to my employees I'd rather have extra solder and not have a leak. So now we just need to get a little bit of Nylog on these guys and tighten up this dryer. True purpose of Nylog in the true best place for it is right here where the flare nut rubs on the copper pipe.

It lubricates it so it doesn't bind up. I put it on the threads. that's a preference of mine. Some people don't like that.

that's just what I do. So I put just a dab on the threads too. Be cautious if you're putting it on the threads. It can mess with torque specs.

If you're using a torque wrench, Nylog is essentially Refrigeration oil just a higher, a different viscosity so it's safe for the system. You're not going to hurt anything. Did you hear my elbow click? The torque wrench of my elbow clicked to let me know that was tight enough. but for real like I do understand that, you know I joke around I Don't use a torque wrench I would like to get one, but I uh I just haven't found one that I like yet.

You guys have recommendations. Feel free to let me know. Always wipe them down to make sure that there's no Nylock because the Nylog left on there accumulates dirt and makes it look like a refrigerant leaf. Okay, we are connected and we are done with our refrigeration repair now.

I Need to run down to the van, get a vacuum pump and all my vacuum stuff, clean up some of my messes and some insulation so we can finish this job up All right. I'm all set up for the evacuation now because we're just pulling on the line set I'm just doing a one hose pole. It won't take long I'll do the insulation after we're going to start with the gas ballast open on the pump I Went ahead and changed the oil because it was time for me to change my oil anyways. So what we're doing is a one hose pole.

It's going to go all the way down the liquid line, all the way back up top. We're still powered on, the evaporator is running and as long as the solenoid valves open, it should start dropping on this right here so we'll give it a few minutes and then, uh, while that's evacuating. I'll go get some insulation for this guy I Don't know if I actually have a stick of insulation, You know what? I have another tech coming over here to work on some ACS I'm gonna have them pick up insulation for me, All right? I Just finished the evacuation. It looked good with the hose, but I've got to apply my gauges so that way I can work on the system.

So because of how I had it set up I Ball valved it off, applied my gauges, pulled an evacuation on my gauges. okay and now we're getting ready to open the system back up so that way we can check the refrigerant charge and then watch it operate. I Have opened the packing on this guy and then all that we're gonna do is let the refrigerant flow through should start coming up and it's coming up on the gauges if I can get it going here in just a sec. Compressor is already turning on, fan cycle switch is going to be holding out the condenser fan motor until the head pressure gets high enough.

So we're just going to let the system run for a bit. I'll go down and do an electronic Leak search down at the evaporator coil and then also up here at all my connections just to be safe. Always want to be sure. And then keep in mind too that when, uh, because those packings always leak when you're doing a pump down system, your evacuation is never going to be 100 perfect.

Okay, the packing's always leak, the valves always leak. It's not always 100 so keep that in mind when you're doing evacuations. Um, all right. I'm gonna start cleaning up and then let it run for a little bit.

Sight glass looks to be clear and staying clear, so the amount of refrigerant that we leaked out over the weekend was minimal. we'll see. Actually, it looks like it just started bubbling a little bit, but I'll let it run for a bit. We're not going to jump to conclusions quite yet.

All right, the system has been running for about 10 minutes or so I've just been kind of cleaning up a little bit. We are running a Clear Sight glass see on that spoiling catch-all I'm sorry Sportland C all sight glass. You see, you've got plenty of room. It's a nice big glass.

I Really like that. Nice and easy to see. So the amount of refrigerant that it was leaking was so minimal that it didn't even really affect the charge. Um, so since what? I topped off over, you know, a couple days ago.

So I'm going to shut the system down now and equalize out the gauges and then we're going to go downstairs. We're going to open up the high side and the low side. let the pressures equalize and actually I'll start up here. We're going to do a leak search on all of our welds and our flare joints, and then we'll go downstairs and do the same just to be sure.

All right. So we've got equalized out pressures on the gauges and we're just going to all of our braised joints. Nothing around all of our connections. Nothing come up here.

so this one has a lighted tip on it. I'm using the Dr-82 from Field Piece. Pretty good leak detector you can. There's some things you got to learn how to use it though.

Um, I'm not seeing anything on this leak detector right here. There's an air pump and if you block it when you're moving it around, it can set off the leak detector every once in a while. It doesn't always happen, but you just gotta watch where you put your hands on it because let's see if I can get it to happen. It's not going to do it now, but there's weird instances where if you block it, it'll set it off.

So just maybe it's only when it's on turbo mode, there's on turbo. Now let's try to block it off and see. Yeah, say it. like on turbo mode.

Every once in a while you can set it off. But anyways, it's good. Leak detector: I like it I carry multiple Leak Detectors I Also have the Inficon Stratus in my van. Um, you know I'm not loyal to any one brand particular.

I'm just loyal to what works for me and what. I'm comfortable using not seeing any leaks up here. We're going to go back downstairs and leak check down there. All right? Um, I am all finished up.

I am bringing to their attention though that that evaporator coil is completely deteriorated on the inside the copper lines. There's a lot of corrosion and pitting going on. so I am going to recommend they consider equipment replacement, but for now they are back up and operational until they make those decisions. So that's going to be it on this one.

This equipment is on its last leg that evaporator coil. The leak that I repaired and then all the other copper in the general area has a lot of pitting and corrosion going on. It is really time for them to replace that equipment, but they wanted me to do my best to fix the leaks at this time because it kind of takes a little while to get equipment and go through the whole process. so that's typically what they want me to do is just do whatever I have to do to slow it down, patch it, do the best and then usually they end up place in the equipment now.

I haven't heard about this one yet. This just happened to actually just finalize this repair yesterday. Today is June 7th so I finished it on June 6th. Um so I was able to finish it up and then I submitted all the paperwork to the proper people and then let them make the decisions on what they want to do.

now. I talk a lot about what I like to do in my videos. Remember, you guys don't have to do things the exact same way as me. You don't have to be just like me.

You know these videos are just a look into how my brain works right? and I choose to do things a certain way. I know I'm very meticulous and I know I'm very like OCD about a lot of different things that maybe you aren't and so be it. You know everybody's different. If it works for you, go for it.

If it doesn't, it doesn't you know like I I Don't want people to think that I'm making these videos saying that you have to do things the way that I do them I No I I know there's other ways to achieve the same results, right? This is just how I go about doing it now. I know I talk a lot about using flare dryers. I I mean I genuinely like using a flare dryer on the roof because I'm lazy. Okay, that that's the real reason I'm lazy and I don't want to have to drag my torches up the next time if I don't have to.

you know there's times when it's like oh man, I got to take my torches on the roof just to change the dryer. It's like, you know what? one less thing on the roof makes me a happier person. So the next time, if I have to do a repair down at the evaporator, guess what? I can just go up with a couple of wrenches, a vacuum pump, and an extension cord and do what I need to do, pump the system down, make the repair, change the dryer, move on. I don't kind of bring my torches back up to change the dryer.

That's the whole reason why I like using them. Okay, I'm not judging anybody that doesn't like to use Nylog on the threads of their their flare connections. I do again Whatever floats your boat like I'm I'm cool. You know, like I don't I'm not saying that you're wrong for not putting Nylog on the threads.

you know there's so much like contention on social media and I just need to make it clear like if you do it differently, that's cool. Like I'm not making these videos saying you have to do it the same way as me I'm making these videos saying I know I'm weird I know I do things differently. Some people get entertained, some people get education from it. Who knows.

Okay, so that's why I continue to make these. but first and foremost, as I've said many times before, these videos are from my employees like they genuinely are for my employees and then I'm make them available the public as a benefit. Like you know, that's the whole point of why I started making them and why I continue to make them is because when I work on interesting things like I like to show my employees, you know sometimes my employees are with me, they weren't Nobody was with me on this job, you know? So you know I had someone come in to bring something. He brought me insulation right at the end of the job, right? So I don't always have someone with me so these videos are for them to be able to see how I like to do things.

Okay so nothing too crazy about this right customer called me beer walking down it was Friday I got it I did my best to get it going on Friday afternoon Friday evening and I told them hey, it's not a giant leak. Um, we'll come back and fix it. came back a couple days later, did what I had to do, got it back up and running and you know they're happy, right?
