How to Jump Start Your Cub Cadet Riding Mower When It Won't Start! [Cub ...

DIY How to Start and Drive & Operate Your Cub Cadet Riding Lawnmower [Cu...

First you must have your behind in the seat because there is a safety mechanism under the seat that will not allow the Cub Cadet Mower to start unless it's being engaged. The next thing is to press the brake on the left side down with your left leg/foot and then turn the key to the right. It should start right up. If not, first troubleshooting step is to make sure it has gas in the tank. This takes regular unleaded gasoline or ethanol free premium gas. Once the motor starts and you want to go, you will simultaneously slowly release the brake with your left foot and then engage throttle with your right foot by pressing the forward most lever. There are two levers located at your right foot. The front one is forward and the back one is for reverse.

This riding mower is a cub cadet riding mower and is an XT2 enduro series.  I laugh about that and every time i think about "enduro" which to me means it's street legal.  

Whenever I'm done I make it a habit to pull the key out because that battery will go dead as it has many times in the past which ends up costing me a battery replacement. 

The throttle adjustment is important as well too. I usually like to keep it up high when I'm mowing an lower if I'm not mowing rather just transiting from one location to the other.

DIY How to Re-Handle An Old Axe Head with 28" Tennessee Hickory Handle [...

For many of my fellow enthusiasts, refurbishing old axes and woodcutting equipment is very rewarding. It brings new life and purpose to tools that would otherwise be left in their tired and broken state on a shelf somewhere or even discarded headed towards the local landfill. Repair of many types of simple woodcutting tools is fairly inexpensive when compared to purchasing new. Many tools like sledge hammers, axes and picks can last a lifetime and even get passed down from generation to generation, which I’ve personally experienced. In some cases, the repair of these tools is essential to survival because through their use, warmth can be obtained. In other cases, with regards to repair, it can be a matter of having an extra as a backup or just be great pieces for topics of discussion or for display. With regards to axes, if you regularly use your axe than no doubt at some point in the game you’ll be faced with the need to replace your axe handle. Part of the fun in getting into or being part of refurbishing axe heads and handles is learning and knowing what the various types of patterns, shapes and sizes of axes (and other tools) are called. Pertinent to this refurbishment project is some terminology such what is another name or what is a handle (a.k.a. a helve or haft) which is known as the hang. The hang of an ax is always a matter of personal choice. You should hang your ax to suit you. This should be where the head is neither too heavy nor too light, and the axe handle is just the right length for the user. Another feature of an axe head is called the “eye” of the axe. This is the opening in the axe head where the handle fits up into. For axe handle replacement, some of the tools you’ll need are as follows: § Vise § Hand saw § Drill and drill bits § Slotted screwdriver, piece of hardened steel (i.e. cold chisel) § Hammer Amazon (paid) Link to a Set of 3 Extra 19" Hickory Handles for Tomahawks & Axes: https://amzn.to/3DpBxfk Please visit my website: www.diy-technician.com

DIY How to Upgrade and Change an Electrical Wall Outlet 110V Household P...

The first step I did was to turn off the power at the breaker then verified that it was in fact by making sure a plugged in light didn't turn on as well as verifying with a voltage sensor. Once I confirmed the power was off unscrewed the old electrical outlet and discarded it. The new one went on the exact same way as the old one came off. Once I tightened down my new connections I gave the wires a nice tug to make sure they were secured properly and won't come free. I added a layer of weatherproofing and then a new outlet cover and called it a day. I turned the breaker back on and was in business with a brand new upgraded outlet.

When you can please visit my website: https://www.diy-technician.com

Wagonwheel Lake Hike/Run Olympic National Forest WA State | 2.9 Miles Ve...

This butt kicker starts off slow at the trailhead through some mildly steep ferns and then progresses into an endless series of grueling switchbacks.Once you think you're getting close to the top or to the lake, the steep part is just beginning. It keeps getting steeper and steeper to the top. Once you reach near the top the trail side-hills it and makes you think it's going to stay flat for a bit but then it inclines some more. It then takes you through a nice brushy green area that was a landslide area some time ago and looks like perfect country for a bear, filled with cover and berries. In April and May time frame this is where I'd hit snow both times and had to turn around as I was unprepared as a first time hiker of this trail. This particular section in the end of July and August its nearly overgrown with many greens and trees across the trail so one must be careful not to get your ankle stuck in these. Once you pass this area you'll cross a little creek and then shortly after the lake will be on your right. It's a nice beautiful green and deep looking. On this day there were so many bugs and butterflies that I couldn't hang near the shore for very long without getting eaten alive, even with a hefty coat of bug spray on. They seemed to be immune. The reward is fairly nice, however, it it's just cooling off you're after, you may be disappointed as that can be done down at lake Cushman or it's inflowing Skokomish River. There were many nice salmon berries to eat along the way. The only wildlife seen today on this hike was a family of grouse and a newt that surfaced at the lake. Once the lake experience is done it was time to head back down. This descent makes you painfully aware that a whole new set of muscles gets used for heading downhill. I don't recommend this to anyone as it's quite dangerous but I decided to double time the nearly the whole way, pushing my limits as it was 90+ degrees on this day. I made it down from the lake to the trailhead in 56 minutes. I took a few breaks to film along the way. I slept like a rock that night with the stars over my head at the Staircase campground. Wonderful experience overall.

DIY HomeBrew Cooper's Irish Stout Recipe Making and Taste Testing [Coope...

DIY HomeBrew Cooper's Irish Stout Recipe Making and Taste Testing [Cooper's Irish Stout Home-brew]. This one is an estimated 5%. Great tasting. I like it better than guiness. I’ve had a couple stouts that are just outstanding. This one really has a nice sweeter taste to it. I was really surprised on how this one turned out. It has some wonderful notes of coffee and just a hint of licorice coupled with it’s nice and roasted smokey profile. It is a fully bodied beer with a smooth and creamy soft mouthfeel with moderate carbonation (but more than expected). As you can see from the video the sun has a hard time penetrating through the glass of the fine black stout thanks to the roasted barley. I can’t take full credit for making it as I purchased all of the ingredient. It was just a matter of putting them together correctly and waiting. It has a slight aroma of graininess and smoke. This batch turned out without any harsh characteristics or one characteristic overpowering the other, rather, just a nice enjoyable pleasant mix of all. The froth and creaminess of this stout seems to balance it all out and bring it all together. This beer is Vegan, however, I’m not sure if it’s necessarily Gluten free. No animals were killed during the brewing of this beer. The question gets asked sometimes, “Is Stout Good For you?”. It’s allegedly full of antioxidants and flavonoids which are the same thing that give fruits and veggies their dark color. Getting these anti-oxidants into your system is great for your heart and what a better way to do it than a tall glass of this nice home brewed delicious stout. Antioxidants are molecules that neutralise free radicals – unstable molecules that can harm your cells. We usually find them in foods such as raspberries, kale and artichokes – amidst many other fruits, vegetables and nuts. The health benefits associated with a diet packed with plants are at least partially due to the variety of antioxidants they provide your body! It’s been said that this will slow down the deposits of cholesterol on artery walls reducing risk of heart attacks. Stouts also generally have less calories per serving than other lighter beers!

DIY GateHouse Hinge Pin Door Stop Installation Tutorial Demonstration [G...

DIY GateHouse Hinge Pin Door Stop Installation Tutorial Demonstration [Gatehouse Hinge Pin Doorstop]. The first step is to buy a couple of these and then pop the hinge pin on the door. I used a small screwdriver and lightly tapped it out of place. I installed these individually one by one. Once the hinge pin is removed I pushed the door stop down over the hinge pin and tapped it back into place. Once installed the hinge pin doorstop can be adjusted to your desired setting to either open further or open less. In this case I needed to keep the door knob from hitting the glass closet doors and causing a huge destructive mess so it was mandatory I put these on. Super easy installation and quick too. The door stops are cheap compared to a hole in the wall or a busted closet door. Thank you for watching and please leave me a comment or two.

RELIABILT Bethany Mirror Sliding Closet Doors Part#201655 Installation T...

These Reliabilt brand mirrored sliding closet doors (part # 201655) come with the top rail and bottle rail (roller guide) as well along with fasteners. Aside from the tools needed to saw the top guide rail and the roller guide, it comes with all the hardware that you need for this simple installation. You may want to remember to bring along some rope if you are hauling it via truck so that you can tie it down and keep it from sliding around. These doors were super simple to install and can be installed very quickly. They look sharp as well. Tools I used: Cordless drill, drill bit, phillips screw head bit and hack saw. I also used an electric hand held angle grinder with a cutting wheel on it. Step 1: Before going to hardware store or ordering, measure your dimensions (height and width in inches) Step 2: Take dimensions with you to the store when picking out doors. Make sure your door dimensions are less than or slightly smaller than the dimensions of the doors you will be purchasing. Too large typically won’t work unless you can make modifications to the framing around the closet which isn’t preferable. Step 3: Once you’ve purchased your doors and have hauled it home. Carefully unbox the doors and set out all your parts. You should have two sliding closet doors, one top track to facilitate the sliding of both doors, the bottom roller track, fastening screws and the rubber bumper stick ons. Step 4: Measure, mark and cut your top track with a hack saw. To keep the metal top track from distorting you can use a 2X4 to stick in the track to keep it from folding on itself. I started the cut with a hacksaw but ended up just using an angle grinder with a cutting wheel on it. Be sure to use safety glasses, gloves and hearing protection if you are going to be using this method. Step 5: Install top track with the provided 1.5” fastening screws. There should be 8 (eight) of them. Step 6: Measure and cut bottom track. Drill holes and screw it down with fastening screws. Step 7: Using a cordless drill or manual phillips screwdriver, drive out the wheels as much as necessary by tightening the phillips head screw at the top of each wheel. Step 8: Install the doors. I installed the back one first by stiding the top into the track and then setting the wheels in the roller guide track. Do the same with the other door. Step 9: (Final Step): Install the rubber stick ons for use as bumpers onto the ends of the doors so that if they are slammed they are less likely to break. The kit only comes with four which is only enough for one side of each door. I wanted to install them on both sides and I had some laying around from a prior project so I put them on both ends of the doors. This way they may be opened up either way with no increased risk of fracturing the large mirrored doors. They make these all-inclusive kits so that they can be easily installed quickly. The parts are lightweight and can easily be done by just one person. The mirrored doors are nice as they can make a smaller size bedroom appear larger. If you are looking for an upgrade this is a nice way to go as well as being relatively cheap to many other closet door options. This same installation method can be used for non-mirrored sliding closet doors. My width for this closet door was 59.5” and the door kit said 60”. This was just fine as the doors overlap a little, which is what I wanted to that worked out perfect. The height was approx. 81” so this worked as well due to the wheels having adjustable height screws in which to lower or lift the sliding closet doors into the groove of the upper guide for a nice secure fit.

Craftsman Battery Powered Weed Wacker Leaf Blower Combo [Craftsman V20 Leaf Blower Battery Operated] Purchased at Lowes for $129 plus tax which came out to $140.00. Good unit but the battery life only lasts for 15 minutes on high at full charge. If you have two batteries you can get 30 minutes or so out of it. Great light weight unit just doesn't last as long as you'd expect. Many positives to this one though. Low cost, light weight, easy assembly, cheaper than gas, comes with edger line, etc. Here's one on amazon(paid link): CRAFTSMAN WEEDWACKER 20V MAX String Trimmer and Leaf Blower Combo Kit (CMCK197M1 ):https://amzn.to/3gFAmzh

DIY Building Outdoor Chain Link Dog Kennel Roof [DOG KENNEL]

 

This is the final product. I show the below steps from start to finish on this nice new dog kennel.

This tarped over dog chain link fenced in dog kennel needed a nice roof put on it. The tarp and fence served their purpose but it's time for more of a permanent fix.

The first order of business is to pull off the old scabbed together cross members that offered some temporary support for the tarp. Once the old "roof" was off I took some measurements and headed out to Lowes. I bought some two by fours, one by threes, plastic roofing, some screws, brackets, moulding to match the roof and some small nails to hold the plastic roof moulding down to the frame.

I took the 2X4's and played them across the top of the dog kennel fencing.

I then took the outer perimeter roof 1X3's and screws them dow to the 2X4 cross members making sure the frame stayed square.

I then nailed the moulding for the roof down to the cross members. I used some smaller sized nails so as not to crack the thin moulding.

Now its' time to lay the sheets of the plastic roofing down into the moulding. It fit quite nicely.

This took a little bit of time but not much at all. I overlapped the plastic roofing as well.

The overlap prevents the water from getting down into there.

This is a shot of the roof before the plastic sheeting gets put on. It shows almost the full installation of the roof moulding.

Once the sheets are overlapped I screwed them into the moulding with screws containing rubber grommets. If I could do this job again I think I would screw to the top of the moulding rather than in the valley to allow the water to flow more freely and also so it wouldn't be a stopping point for catching tree debris.

Slapping it all up there and screwing it down. This was all a one man job as all of the materials are very light and easy to work with.

I used brackets to secure the roof to the side walls of the chain link kennel to keep it from sliding off.

Here it is with all of the plastic sheeting put up and screwed down.

I secure the roof more with the brackets. The brackets are galvanized so they won't rust. I used a cordless drill to screw these in.

This is the spot/side where the water will run off. It's very slightly angled (not on purpose) so it makes it nice.I think if it wasn't already angled a little bit I'd stick some shims or some sort of riser under one side in order for it to have some kind of slope.

The dogs loved it. This acts as just a temporary shelter for them due to it's size. They get to stay inside during the night and in times of harsh weather.

Here's one last shot of the finished product. Way more sturdy than the tarp that was on there before.
