It's alive. Hello everybody. Good day to you! Welcome back! Glad you're here. Uh, we're still in the shop. I'm uh, of course we're still in the shop. That's what we do here. but um. I'm trying to get this compressor set up. uh I have decided it is going to live right where it's at that way. I'm not taking up floor space inside, it's covered. Um, it's dated. It's not going to get stolen. plus it's a thousand pounds and someone steals this thing then I mean they work for us so it's whatever. Uh anyway. I I ran some wire to uh to get this thing fired up and we're about to pull through, pull the trigger, literally to uh to get this thing to run I Have not run this compressor in months. It's been hanging out in my con Xbox for a while. so uh, what? I've done I'm not going to show you too much because you guys are just going to re-out I've uh, I've run that wire through the wall. There's a 240 circuit right here coming down. runs over the garage door down into this panel. right here for the breaker. Uh, that is running that 240 circuit. It's a 20 amp breaker and I'm going to need to change that out with a 38. This thing requires a 30 amp service, but nothing all right. Well, Oh yeah, yeah, that's right. It's got a, uh, it's got a switch over here. so here we go. Let's fire it up see if she's gonna run. It's pretty quiet too for what it is. Let's see if we're making air. Yes, we are all right, we're getting somewhere now guys. we gotta air. Much improvement over my little pancake compressor, which is cool because I would like to bring this thing back home and put it back in the trailer where it belongs. It's just a little 110 compressor from the Home Depot but that won't run my air tools. That's enough to air up some tires and that's about it. But now we have 55 gallons of 120. PSI Yes, ultimately I think I am going to uh run an entire dedicated circuit for that because like I said, I did piggyback off of an existing circuit that was running 20 amps and uh and I know the wire is a little undersized and the breaker is a little undersized, but that's going to require me to go get some more conduit and then run an entire other line. uh, back out and over and then through. I do need to put a pass through in the wall right here if I just I ran the wire through the wall and then secured it with one of these clamps right here. I Know it's not code, but it's going to work because right now I'm just trying to hearing functioning and I can fine tune it all later on so that's where we're at so far. All right, that thing's kind of loud and I don't need air right now. so powering down All right. My darling life unit has been decorating today. I Got all my uh, my metal signs and license plates back up. There's a couple more coming in. Yeah, that's appropriate hearing protection area. that's true. Got my rat pink clock I I Gave that to my son but we liked it for a while and then decided that it was scary and he didn't not want that anymore. So it's it's here now. I got those two. all this stuff used to be in my barn. my green personal building that uh I sold I didn't tell you guys that did I yeah a lot of you were wondering about that and I kind of owe you an explanation. Um I sold the building. that's right. I I sold the materials so a crew guys came out, they disassembled the entire building, put on a trailer and they drove away with it. Which is cool because I sold it for almost what I paid for the building and the land so I kind of did not I didn't lose out but I got the land and the real issue with that was is um, it was built without a permit and about four inches slab was in a a non-buildable Zone and I had to have some surveys done and if the county found out that I had a building where it wasn't supposed to be I could have gotten some trouble but now there's no building there so there's nothing to worry about. so yeah, that's that's kind of a that's a long story short on what happened to that personal shop. I had other reasons for for taking it apart and getting rid of it, one of which was the slab down below. It was a four inch slab and it wasn't high pressure concrete, but I had to have a six inch slab in order to properly mount a lift or anything like that. So it was. The thing was going to be a money pit uphill battle to make it suitable for what I wanted. So I uh like I said I sold the thing, tore it down, got rid of it, and now I have the land which is added on to my my current land and through. uh I feel that I came out. um I came out ahead because I have more ground, more dirt and uh and I almost got it for nearly 3.99 So I guess that kind of works out anyway. I'm rambling on a tangent. so let's go ahead and put this thing. uh, this cover back on so we're safe here. Let's put some more light on the subject. There we go. Surface of the Sun action. Now you can see my horrible electrical panel. Foreign. don't drill a hole through your finger, please. I'm just saying you've got a habit for uh, workplace injuries and uh I don't want you to get hurt I know you're resilient. You're a resilient preacher. Yeah, that's Life Unit. She's uh, continuing to install decor I've been collecting it for a while and unfortunately I had to pack it all away when the building came down. Okay, put that in there. Yeah, that isn't tighten down. That's cute junk. Yeah, okay. OSHA it's fine. Oh, don't worry, we're not open yet so I can do this. Got a warrant? I'm uh, slightly annoyed with myself I uh I had a whole packet of these fittings right here and I brought them here somewhere and then I put them away and now I don't have them. So I'm just gonna have to sort of improvise a little bit to get this hose connected I can already see it. I'm gonna do all this work to get this apart to make it fit and then as soon as I'm done I'll find those fittings that I lost and then I'll have to do it over again. but that's my life. Unclick this this one set up kind of as an extension cord since I don't have my fittings. Also have to make this the uh, the primary I'll just hardwire it right in. Yeah! I got this adapter here that's going to fit into the compressor. It's just gonna thread. Yeah, okay, good, you know. same thing with my Teflon tape. I have like 10 rolls of it and I have no idea where it's at. Oh, this is gonna take me some time to get organized. I'll say that for don't make me do this without Teflon tape because I will look at that I couldn't have tried that if uh or done that again. if I try, look at that. It flew right out at me. Okay, cool getting somewhere. Thank you Universe you're awesome! So I think the appropriate thing to do would be to screw this into the compressor first and then I'll thread that into this little adapter right here. and uh yes, I do plan on upsizing this a little bit at least in the fitting side because this is a huge restriction on the system flow, but it will work for uh for right now. Is this the right way? No, no, we're backwards. There we go: I don't want air leaks I despise air leaks and I know this is not a sealant, it's a lubricant. but it's better than nothing. Oh yeah, that's pretty good. I did it wrong. Oh I did it wrong again. What? What am I thinking Why did I do that every time every time when it comes to the tape? Let's uh, let's do it one more time. Why? Because I love my job so much I do it twice rear. Okay, so if I go this way, that's the way because then the trailing Edge is down. Downstream so to speak I don't know if that's the right word. You guys know what I mean I know what I mean I think that's what's important right now. All right tape installed. Let's go get this thing on the compressor and then we'll screw this into this and then then we'll have air Hooray! I think I'm gonna need I need some tools for this one. We're gonna go with the frustrated pliers and uh, nipex my Nipex flyer people work 2z compressor here. Let's figure this out you guys. I'll hang you guys right here there we go and I'm gonna pull that one out right there off of the valve. About's gonna say these, uh, those two adapters are going to leave then I've not needed air yet but when you need it, you need it. like for uh, impact guns and whatnot. Sometimes the electrics just won't cut it. Let's do this without breaking things. unclick. Yeah, there we go. Nice See this one has Teflon tape and some of that green sealant stuff I do have some of the green stuff but it's also not here. Thank you. Is that right? Yes, it is beautimous. I like it. begin tightening now Yeah I Got this compressor many many months ago. it was a repo The Tool Guy repoed it from a shop. The guy bought it, made like one payment on it and I never made a payment again. it got repoed and then uh I got a hold of it hours later. All right about Nick that'll do it All right Let's go get the hose and hook that up next. Uh oh I Just realized uh, it's a little late in the day. it's actually not that late. but I have a an appointment at the bank in like 20 minutes. So I'm I'm over schedule I need to get out of here. That's what I'm trying to say I'm late, gotta go powering down I need to get out of here I'll be back in a little while to finish that. but for right now I'm out. Yes, none of this is on switches yet, but it will be sorry. No, All right. more lights done. Door come on door. We gotta go. We're late. I don't like to be late for the bank. Uh, that didn't go as planned, did it? Hmm. there. my wood stopped me. It's actually not technically wood. it's well, it is wood. So SP but I don't that doesn't count. All right. I'll be back in a little while to finish that compressor. You guys wait here and starting Z engine. Well, we're off. I'll be right back guys. All right guys, we're almost there. I'm gonna stop recording now because I don't need the stalkers knowing where my bank is um, security purposes and whatnot. I think while I'm down here I'm gonna head into one of the parts stores and uh and finish up that uh, that account that I failed at so miserably yesterday. Um, by the way, thank you to everybody who has reached out via email to help me out with those accounts. I've already got uh one set up with uh Napa uh. Talked to a couple at a store manager for another part store that one of them was the failure store but we're gonna have a training I think they're all going to go under some training this week so that's kind of cool. I like that I've changed a few things here and there anyway. so I'm gonna head into the bank, go get this account thing done, then I'm gonna go to the parts store and uh and then get another account set up and then I'm gonna go back and finish that air compressor. So I'll see you guys when we get back to the shop. Don't go anywhere. enjoy this commercial. All right guys. Uh, I'm done at the bank that that kind of took a while I think I was here two and a half hours yeah starting the engine. so I'm headed back to the shop I uh I should have a a Jeep coming in on the hook. Uh, a tow truck in layman's terms I should have a Jeep coming in. Uh, customer states that the exhaust manifold turns red hot while driving and uh, has lack of power installing and some misfiring action. So I'm I'm hoping that shows up today. It should be here in about 35-40 minutes. Oh, you saw my bank? hang on and now you can't see. Anyway, it should be here in about 35 or 40 minutes. So I'm gonna like I said head back and we'll see what we can't do about taking delivery of uh of this. Jeep Wrangler and uh, then we go from there. So uh, let's go find out. Okey dokes, We're back and uh, looks like I've had a visitor. What do we got here? Oh The Parts House man the power of the internet I'll tell you guys what I I registered some grapes about uh folks not setting up accounts and and then they show up. That's pretty cool. thanks Parts House I'll be talking to you guys later and illumination to the surface of the Sun Love it here. We'll just leave this right here for the wife unit. She's got work to do when she gets back. See where was? I I was uh doing the air compressor right? That's what I was doing I found them I found the package of adapters that I needed because I need this one I need the female side with the nail and stack test I needed this one to attach to the compressor. then I can just attach the hoses to that that way I don't have to leave my hose outside all night because not something I want to do? Come here. Yep, that's what I want. Okay, let's go get this thing screwed in. even comes with some sealant. That's cool. Oh but first first I need to check and make sure it fits with uh, my existing ends I Hate to put a new email end on and they don't fit Anything that would bother me that bother me greatly. Survey says: yep, it fits the long shank ones. How about the short? Shank Yes, Oh good. So we we're in business now. everybody. That one doesn't fit but this one does okay. Cool beans. let's get this thing on and then I can uh connect my hose. Okay, it looks like we need a 19. Yes, all right let's do it. Okay, back in our business end here: I'm just gonna thread this guy on. Yes. I I know I needed a a uh what? you call it a water separator I have one but I don't have the appropriate fittings to make it fit but I'll do that later. This will work for now. Everything's gonna work for now. it's all temporary and charge it Nice. No leakage. Cool. Okay, time for the test run. I've got the got my hose here. Let's go ahead and charge this thing and see how it does a tight speed. It fixed that too and powering on All right. We got air. Oh you know what else we got? We have a setback. Um I just got a call and AAA has not picked up our Jeep so that's not going to be here. Mosquito, It's not going to be here. this evening or this afternoon. so um, hopefully it will arrive tomorrow. Um I need an air tool to test my Airline I mean I know it works but gotta test it. Got to verify. Just always have to verify Huh? Well that's a disappointment. I Wanted to see that Jeep today. Oh well. I can wait I have I have patience. Um oh we need more air. Yeah firing on. Yeah, that was a tragedy. The camera all right now. let's see what we got. Ah beautiful. We have air. I like it. Sweet improvements one day at a time. Alrighty, it's enough fun for one day. I'm gonna go ahead and power this thing down and uh I'm headed home I'm hungry. it's dinner time. had a long day. So with that being said, as always, thank you for watching this video. Uh sorry, we didn't get to Tinker with our Jeeps today. um definitely tomorrow if it is, if it shows up. and if not, I have a Honda coming in and some other stuff for uh, later this week. so we're getting there, we're working. we're getting back to the car thing pretty soon. So again and as always before I start rambling. Thank you guys for watching and most importantly, don't forget to have yourselves a great day! See you guys later! Any transmission? on to the next project of the day. Food and paperwork Goodbye lights, goodbye shop goodbye audience. See you guys later! Oh one more thing. Uh, you guys kept asking why I have lights underneath of my toolboxes and it's really simple because it's awesome. That's why no other reason I felt like it. It's like the Fast and Furious version of a toolbox.

    Block those under-toolbox toe spaces about 4” back, keeps you off all 4s , sometimes, cause many things you drop will hit your toe and bounce back to the wall

    Hey Ray, next video : how to tension a roller door. (its actually really simple). Also quick tip – Use the outside edge of the teflon tape and you will find it easier to apply/unroll

  3. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars HoodHomes&Gardens says:

    Ray to assist in the proper thread sealant application or thread "lubricant" put the fitting in your right hand in the thread tape in your left. And just pretend you're tightening it in as you unwind the tape. Otherwise I do it twice too.

  4. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars ken jay says:

    you went the wrong way with the tape

    Hope you changed the door locks so prior renters have keys to come steal your tools

  6. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars harry walker says:

    what you need to do for the air, is get some lengths of 2 or 3" pipe, run it round the shop, with outlets. it holds more air / pressure. on my truck i have 3 fire extiguishers,,extinguished,,to hold air from a 300 lt 4×4 compressor, they fill 3.5 tires, 35,s. from 10 psi..with, the comp running. less than 5 mins. you need volume, no pressure. like torque, not hp..those hose fitting are a pain in ass,,nitto, are the best.

  7. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Eighty 88 says:

    Nice air compressor. How are you gonna plumb the air back to your work stations?
    Pro style is with 1/2" galvanized steel pipe. But last I checked that shit's about $114/foot.
    When I was working on semi's, I can't remember how many complete air brake systems I installed. We used 3/8" black nylon hose, with most connections using compression fittings.
    That was many moons ago, these days they're probably using Sharkbite like you use for pex.
    Rated for 120psi continuous, maximum burst rating 1400psi. Safe between -40°/+200° F. You can get a 100' roll of SAE SJ44 for $50 from Amazon.
    Helluvalot cheaper than steel pipe. I'm gonna plumb my shop with nylon.
    Best of luck.

  8. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars GrumsPlace says:

    🤣I nearly mentioned you were doing the teflon tape wrong, also you could try something like Lox-Eal instead of teflon tape if you are doing a lot of fittings.

  9. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars abcd says:

    Get her done

  10. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Kenneth Shilts says:

    You need to secure your air compressor. Not everybody is honest as you are.

  16. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars rod bender says:

    Nice shop. Just turn the fitting against the tape and twist as if your tightening. Storing stuff..I try to put small things like tape away in a sort of alphabetical order. Way easier to find things.

  17. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Kr3k says:

    She's drifting xD

  18. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Deviated09 says:

    I know the critique can get old, but I should point out, the compressor was wired up 240v single phase. You need a fullsize double pole breaker that takes up 2 slots, not a single slot double pole breaker. I know you said it was temporary and that you were going to redo it anyways, but just food for thought. That can be damaging to motors and burn up the internals..
    I'm glad to see the progression still moving forwards! Eventually you will have it all set up like you want.

  19. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jackie Bishop says:

    I know it has a water drain at the bottom, but you really need an inline air dryer to protect all the air tools. I think someone else might have mention it. You go!!!!!

  20. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars OICU812 says:

    Oh My God! the memories are killing me! I cannot keep watching this due to my post traumatic Teflon taping disorder! You have it right only to correct yourself and make it WRONG! How many times have I done this? It is unfathomable! I can't watch, but you have my full support! 👍

  21. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jackie Bishop says:

    Your Romba needs reprogramming it should be working at night……lol you really have a cute daughter.

  22. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jeff Wilkes says:

    Ray be careful leaving covers off electrical panels especially when your children are around.

  23. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Alan Hall says:

    I don't use Teflon tape since a friend of mine introduced me to Liquid Teflon Sealant. It doesn't matter what direction you apply the liquid Teflon. An 8oz. jar will last forever. My friend has had the same bottle open for 3 years and it works as good as it on day one. I used this stuff on all of the fitting on my compressor. Worked like a charm. My friend used on some new gas line he ran for his home. Inspected by the county and approved.

    Verify? You didn't verify with soapy water that your fitting connections were airtight? Tisk, tisk!! You naughty boy!

  28. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars SR5_91 says:

    Why you don’t run black pipe from the compressor to inside the building so you can leave your hose connected all the time?

    Another great video 👍. Just a little to much on all keeping your bank, shop,ect..I know there are some people out there, this is my opinion only, I fell like You are treating me like I'm going to do something with your bank or your house or your shop or whatever you go and do business. I'm not saying I want to be in on the conversations but it's not gonna make me a break me if I see your bank sign or what your location is. The YouTube channel like I said it's just my personal opinion, It's my opinion and I'm not going to debate it with any other subscribers I just won't respond back. If I stepped on anybody's toes I'm sorry but that's just my opinion… like I said in the beginning of the video another well done video as always. Have yourself a good night be safe and I'll just be aware of your surroundings.✌

    Why have lights under your tool cabinets? Because when you drop a small object, it will ALWAYS roll to the darkness under cabinets. …duh.

  31. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars crp gap says:

    20 amp vs 30 amp are different wire gauges. 20 = 12 awg 30 amp @240v is 8 awg. (50 ampacity) Important to not burn the shop down.

    Ray, as you know with family & personal issues, be careful what you put online. You never know who is watching & who will report you & next thing you know city is knocking on your door. Referencing the electrical issues. I want you to succeed but stay out of trouble as well to stay safe.

    Just to let you know you violated about 20 OSHA laws doing that electrical work. My recommendation is to never video any high voltage (50 volts+) if you don't want a visit from them. You are incriminating yourself which gives them proof to fine you. Just looking out for you.

    Watching you haul that door open and closed, I recommend that you soon-ish install a motor to drive the door chain. You don't need to be tired before you start and more tired when you close the shop to go home 🙂

  47. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars elkvis says:

    Lights under the toolbox serve a useful purpose. When you drop parts, and they roll underneath, you can see them more easily.

  48. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars bobcougar77 says:

    Not sure if you mentioned it but I would run pipe straight in the building from the air compressor and set up a couple/3 ports. Might even run it all the way to the opposite corner.
    That way when you want to blow something off you just reach behind you rather than lugging a hose all over the shop. Less than $100 in parts and a couple hours to setup.

    Lets put safety first and anchor the compressor down with a couple of concrete anchors. Makes it harder to to move but that may be a good thing.

    You sure you have air in all that water?😅

    We can actually see the humidity you're in.

  52. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Les Reeves says:

    Be glad when you open full on ya gittin a bit rambely . Hope it all goes well then.

  53. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Fatalisticend says:

    Lights under the tools box serve a great secondary purpose. When all your 10mm sockets go missing you'll be able to see them under there without the need for a flashlight 🤣

    Ray, Rome wasn't built in a day. Don't burn yourself out. I guarantee in a year the shop will look awesome and business will be rocking

  55. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars James Millhouse says:

    Looks like the car god's smiled and helped you in the 8 minute mark😏

  56. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Joe David Zuniga says:

    Yahoo,we have air,and we didn't have to eat beans…lmao

  57. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Martha's Vineyard Welcome Center says:

    Ray, you still left enough info in the video to find the bank. Chase on 64. The Publix gave it away with the weird turn you had to take with the lanes being one way and the Regions bank beside it.

  58. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Brandon says:

    Same as me everytime with Teflon tape haha

  59. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Rod X says:

    Ray, may i suggest enclosing the compressor, add some insulation, for sound deadening? Or some rhino liner on the resonant bits of the compressor such as the tank? Noise is annoying.

  60. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Matt 107 says:

    I would do a LLC if you haven't already

  61. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Stan Brown says:

    I cannot believe you stood in front of your toolbox with wrenches to do a job you knew the sizes on, and picked pliers to do the job.

  62. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Lon Hoschar says:

    Nice work!! You're getting more things done at the shop. The office is looking pretty good too!! "The wife unit" is doing a fine job!!

    I have a 1999 Ford f350 V10 with 11 volts going into cluster on coolant sensor wire when you unplug the cluster it goes away so I tried 3 new clusters and I have no 5 volt reference at pcm on coolant sensor wire do you have any ideas and pcm has been replaced 3 times same thing going on thanks

  64. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Keith Gregory says:

    Saw it rite off. Lol.

    I like how you ride around with the thermometer in the vent, Florida Life.

  66. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars dana douglass says:

    My wife does mechanic liens if you ever need. She does titles for a lot of the towing companies around the area.

  67. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Paul Kline says:

    I assume the air tank has a drain valve on it so you can drain the air and any water build up in the tank daily.

  68. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Scot L says:

    You've got an awesome shop employee running that workstool. Probably ASE certified. Good work 👏

  69. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Paul V says:

    Hard pipe from the tank in to the building

  70. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Robert Krewson says:

    Just an observation, do they ever do anything but grind things over at the body shop? Sheesh, in every video you can hear someone grinding constantly!

  72. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Sam Eftek says:

    I am so happy for you man. So good to see you are free and have your own business. American dream. God bless you and family.

  73. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Walter Butscher says:

    Do you have a shop name yet? Or just Ray's repairs. Coming along nicely. Have a great day Ray.

  74. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars NA says:

    Please at least put a grommet on the air compressor electric cord where it comes through the wall

  75. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Michael Hart says:

    Another great video

  76. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jeremy Gosling says:

    loctite 545 is what you want for air fittings. Just a drop on the threads and it'll never leak. None of the PITA of tape or messy like pipe dope.

  77. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars B Jammin says:

    You should make the lights under your boxes say "RAINMAN RAYS REPAIR"

  78. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars TurboFlush says:

    Curious how you were able to so quickly get customers?

  79. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars WhiteStoneIndustries says:

    Maybe a solid airline running through the wall so don't have to bring in the air hose every night.

  80. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars TurboFlush says:

    You need mail drop box at the door.
    Name your company Rainmans shop.

  81. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars MR HEART says:

    If you wall off the air compressor then place a muffler on the intake the noise level will reduce. A couple of pipe fittings, bucket and baffling will make a world of noise reduction.

  82. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars lKanyoNl says:

    I can send some California plates if you want some

  83. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jason Carter says:

    Looking good. Not trolling you. But you might want to put thick rubber pads under the legs of the compressor. That's what we had to do to be compliant in pa. But anyhow. Looking forward to this next chapter. Good luck

  84. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Largo's Garage says:

    i knew a guy the put all his air compressors in concrete box's ..why don't other people do the same?

  85. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Veikra says:

    that teflon tape jumping out of the toolbox right on cue HAS to be a sign

  86. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Jussi Kuusela says:

    You probably meant that the outside end of the tape trails when you tighten the thread?
    I know so many, many fine people who struggle to figure this out.

  87. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Frank Nilon says:

    Wife unit=spousal unit❤

  88. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Bill Jones says:

    Rat Fink
    How cool…

  89. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Veikra says:

    that's a nice shop. And you should keep at least a foot between the guard of the compressor and the wall. It's not just airflow but also radiant heat that makes the cooling fan less effective

  90. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars TJ says:

    No more annoying doody-do's and you don't have to put up with all the other people's crappy music playing in the background.

  91. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars David Johnson says:

    That was the easy part, Now the hard part of doing all of the plumbing

  92. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars jynxclover says:

    I like the lights. With that said, and aside, Good job, Ray. You've came quite a ways since I first started watching you

  93. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Mr 4sshole says:

    why is the highlight of my day, coming home just to hope for a new rays repair video?

  94. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars fred414141 says:

    Ray, have you re-keyed the door lock? … never take anybody's word for it that 'nobody else has a key' since there are crooked people and key machines everywhere, Swap out the lock and replace the stock 3/4-inch striker plate screws for 3 inchers!

  95. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars George Butterfield says:

    Too much radio: Dislike.

  96. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars 61 Rampy says:

    I know that you need to get the shop up and running ASAP, but what I see is several "temporary" fixes that oftentimes become permanent. It is easy to say, "I'll get that later", but then you get busy and later becomes never. You have the opportunity to get it done NOW, so please don't let get ahead of you. Wishing all the luck in the world on your new endeavor!
