Pole saw chain popped off? It’s easy to put back.
Putting a chain back on a pole saw is super easy.
Don’t be like me. Wear proper PPE.
This video was for demonstration purposes only.
If you do decide to do this job, absolutely the first thing you should do is remove the pole saw extension from the motor before working on it. You don’t want your kid walking up behind you while you are busy and pulling the trigger while your hands are on the blade.

Fix stripped out screw holes in wood
Переглядів 85810 місяців тому
I used a 1/4" dowel for the holes in the video since they were really stripped out bad. If you have a smaller hole to fill or it's not too bad, you can also use toothpicks. You might not even need glue if it's not stripped out extremely bad. Just clip the pointy end off of a toothpick and force it in the hole. Clip it flush, then install a new screw. /////////////////////////////////social link...

    Excellent presentation, thank you. I stayed at a friend's house in Florida and they use these screen doors on their screened lanai. Their small dog tore a hole in the panel and my larger dog finished it off. It's fun to see that you had a similar reason for the tear in your screen. I bought two of these so that I'll have one as a back up. At the price of these screens, it's much more economical than installing a screen door and I appreciated your directions on installing the screens.

    • @ChrisMcDowellDIY
      @ChrisMcDowellDIY Місяць тому

      Are the drawer slides wooden? If so, take the drawer out and wipe down the wooden slide parts with paste wax. Also wipe any parts that contact the drawer slides inside the cabinet. The wax should make them slide a lot easier. You can get paste wax from Lowes or Home Depot. Or, in a pinch use an old candle you have sitting around.

    • @ChrisMcDowellDIY
      @ChrisMcDowellDIY Місяць тому

      We mainly use it for flies and it has helped a whole lot. There is a small gap at the bottom that a fly or mosquito could by chance walk through, but since they are usually not flying 5mm above the ground at floor level, we haven’t had many problems. For us, having the screen is 95% better than not having a screen.
