  1. 40 years? hell, feels like it was just yesterday I had a can of that stuff on my shelf in the garage. sigh

  2.  @oceanwaves83  "China exists to destroy the US economy." what an incredibly ignorant thing to say. I don't even know where to start.

  4. Exactly. This is not a very useful comparison.

  5. conclusion, as per nearly everything: If it's made in China, it's crap.

  6.  @edwardmulder3777  vinegar is the absolute worst rust remover, of any potential rust remover you could use. it both removes metal AND does a relatively poor job of removing rust. I wish people would stop recommending it.

  7. yeah, the part being left out here is the EXTREME exothermic reaction that occurs when you mix strong acids and bases together. instant boiling acid/base liquids splashing on your face because you wanted to see what happens is not fun.

  9.  @Michael-fw5ef  your logic is... what's the word I'm looking for? oh, yeah: shit.

  10. it's the phosphoric acid in coke that reduces the iron oxide (rust). it is in VERY low concentrations in coke. almost ANYTHING else would work better. Vinegar is better, but still bad. cheapest and most effective DIY is electrolysis.

  11. I have this version as well. Only issue is a bit of tightness, and the factory edge on the knife is weak. I had to regain the edge on the knife in order for it to stay sharp for any reasonable period of time. Overall the tool is extremely tough and has a great complement of tools and functions (including dual measurements carved into the handle)

  12. Great way to get sued for assault

  13. another thing to consider is whether you can easily REMOVE the drywall anchor itself. the standard toggle bolt anchors are very easy to remove (you just unscrew, and the clip falls behind the wall), and then you are left to fill the initial drill hole only, which is also quite easy. toggles that use the screw fastener to warp the toggle to create friction are IMPOSSIBLE to remove cleanly, and you end up creating a MUCH larger hole, or else you have to drill them out instead, which is a PITA.

  14. yeah, that is also something that should have been considered in this test. some of these anchors are A LOT easier to remove without further damaging the drywall than others. While the standard toggle bolt anchors require you to drill a hole first, in the end you can just unscrew them and fill that small hole. many of the other anchors cannot be removed easily at all, or require serious drywall damage to remove.

  15. OTOH, the supposedly "American" Channel locks just plain broke on a simple task. disappointing. That company has gone WAYYY downhill in the last 30 years.

  16. These products are beyond snake oil and well into actively bad territory. How the hell did all these things even make it to market?

  20. The Wera got introduced, but was not video'd doing the first test.

  21. sugar is a weak polar molecule, it will not readily dissolve in a mostly nonpolar solvent. there's slop in each chain though, which is why a (very) small amount of it did. Mostly you are working with a suspension of the finer particles of sugar in the gas though, not dissolved sugar. the fine particles can make it past filters and likely clog fine jets and leave a residue on plugs because it doesn't burn as cleanly as the gas, but it does burn. I just don't see how it could ever destroy a standard gas engine. that said, what the sugar WILL do over time is attract water to itself, which will cause problems, but again not really destroy the engine as such. might cause some rust issues if left in there a really long time.

  22.  @Ritalie  " Only phosphoric acid (or optionally citric acid) is an ideal acid for a final cleaning of a steel part" you can use tannic acid as well, to produce iron tannate, which will "antique" the metal and also provide a protective barrier.

  23. snapon is always so overpriced. Medium quality, max price.

  24. uh, all you really need IS the heat. it is by far the best for removing nuts from bolts.

  25. there's been a LOT of advancement since KY came out as well, btw. don't let your meat loaf!

  26. you aren't getting enough samples of each test to even come up with a variance, let alone anything statistically significant. sigh

  27. Unnecessary. You are not going to work with knives polished by leather. Totally pointless

  28. In practice, there is little reason to go beyond 1000 grit to sharpen knives

  29. most professional watch/jewelry restorers use ultrasonic cleaners with a mild soap in the water.

  30. Very disappointing performance from Milwaukee 😔

  31. Sorry, but you have to change engine timings for different octane fuels.

  32. oh man, I was always told gorilla glue was the best. now I see it's actually the worst. yeesh. I've been bamboozled for years. what's really funny is I remember being so impressed by JB when I was a kid, 40 years ago, and evidently nothing has come close since. I should have listened to my inner child.

  33. As if anyone making a shank is going to have access to anything he used.

  34. different types of gloves are resistant to different types of chemicals. it is NOT a "one type suits all" solution, ok? For example, you do NOT want to use nitrile gloves with any of the following: Aromatic solvents Ketones Acetates Concentrated acids Highly corrosive chemicals all of these will chemically interact with the nitrile and destroy it. It is always recommended you carefully research which kind of glove to use for the specific application you plan for it. a lot of major injuries could be avoided each year if more people did. in addition to latex, there are many other types of gloves that are better for certain chemicals than nitrile, including Butyl, Norfoil, Viton, and neoprene. all have different resistances.

  35. Also that the Gerber knife was so dull. I wonder what happened to that co.

  36. What about just using an angle grinder to cut through the nut and bolt?

  37. Your sample size of one is far far too small to make any conclusions about chip damage. Don't bother.

  38. I was wondering the reverse: whether you could use a good quality car oil in a boat. looks like it would work fine in a pinch, but doesn't quite have the corrosion resistance needed for long term marine operation.

  39. When you note something is "rated" also make sure to note by whom. Chinese products often lie about the real rating, as you well know.

  40. Uh, because it isn't designed TO sharpen knives. Duh.

  41. Bosch is no longer a quality brand. Hasn't been for decades.

  42. "Refined tool" lol.

  43. High carbon tool steel DOES make great knives. If you want one without the work, buy Svord. Made in New Zealand from Swedish high carbon tool steel.

  44. You know what costs a lot less money, and just a few hours to learn? Simple sharpening stones.

  45. "American Mutt Tools" ...made in China.

  46. also? Bates, another Chinese made brand, were clearly the worst pliers of the bunch, even though they were more expensive than many.

  47. Use an adblocker.

  48. @bbtools... Dude was pulling your chain. Any engineer has enough experience to know where the lines most likely run already, especially if they have worked locally for a while. Really really. Be careful, your level of gullibility exposes you to paying a lot more for services 😉

  49. 1. No replication. 2. Insignificant differences Very poor and unreliable results. Why do people like this channel? Did you all fail basic statistics?

  50. You knew how this was going to end.
