#shart Use duct tape to keep wire easy to pull
Just the tip, and only for a minute long long time ago, this is an old trick. The summer last me and one of the young followers. I can't remember if it was dumb or dumber one's fixing to be a car, painter and one's fixing. To be an engineer, it was the engineered fault for reasons which will become readily apparent.
We were busting rod that is laying some sod uh. You know making concrete footings for something or other, and i look up at the fella as a as a species. We humans are clearly evolving because the younger genera generation consistently attempt to do things via telekinesis. The fellow is dripping, sweat, sighing and moaning and not doing a lick of work.
I look up at him. I had some kind of a look because he did the old what it's hot out hot. I says it's hot for an irishman in august. It's all a 26 dungaree science with a three knot: nor'easter, you ain't never seen hot day, you've been down the snake river busting, a black mamba one inch, coarse, fasteners ins on the jetty inside a sea can sweat.
You get back to the hotel, shivering and shaking puking and your pants. You know, and that is how i learned - that three quarters of an inch is the same as nine millimeters. I look up and here's grandpa gary old cass what i brought on to do. The brain work and i don't mind telling you some of these old classes.
They got a good economy of movement because, after a certain amount of time in a specific trade say 200 years, he had such an economy of movement that i could barely keep up with. The bastard him being in as well into his 70s he's got this same. Look on his face. What i got look at that young father doing telekinesis, not a problem grandpa gary! I can go in the shop and get some gloves on we'll tuck that hernia right back in says he to me the depth of your shallowness is unfathomable.
He says you're pretty funny for an old having a stroke says he to me you're dumber than you look and off with a rueful shake of his head back. He strides with red, green's, favorite weapon. It's got a light side, a dark side and it binds the universe together, grabs my 1970s hustler bush style of mechanics wire all and you know how it gets it just bingo bangos. So this is mechanics wire actually comes on a reel more expensive, and this stuff is just bailing wire, also known as a tie wire for rebar snips, all the flyaways off, like shaving, the bikini line in the spring grabs this stuff wraps it around.
Like so packs. Her all down tosses her back at me, look at that, no more flyaways it just peels off the center. You don't get a big dingle dangle of spiderman right in your face hole. I see said the one-eyed man in the land of the blind who picked up his hammer and saw them all cusses, sometimes they're worth keeping around.
Wrap the entire thing up and cut a hole in the center. That way if you drop it, it won't unspool from the middle.

Best description of anything ive ever heard 🤣 any idea what mr ave did for a career this k owl edge is may more than your typical field technician… talk a lot of shit about atlas Copco who I used to be employed by in the drilling world but even still love this guy his brain is one I would love to be able to download
My dad taught me this truck doing dry utilities, but we do it slightly different. We completely seal up the roll with duct tape, punch a hole in the middle with our pliers, and just drag the stuff out with the pliers when we need it. Helps keep dust and stuff out of the roll, and let's you toss it around without fear of the roll deforming.
Love your channel, but, as a car-paint-er myself, I advise you not to do this. This is absolute nonsense, gums up the wire, and is a slight to Iron Workers. Have you ever seen an iron worker pull wire from the center of a spool? Let alone one that has been (d)tuck(t) taped? … "Oh, Uncle Bumblefuck!! I LOVE tying bar with this pig-tail-ass-wire that I pulled from the center of spool." GTFO. If you are tying any significant amount of bar, buy a god damn Tie-Wire Reel, or cut wire off from the outside of the spool as needed. This is a tip you have is for….. home gamers.
Iron tie wire- the iron worker's /rod buster's friend.
I finally obtained a reel to dispense tie wire. most "elec-chickens" use the duct tape dispensing method. I don't like peeling tie wire out of the center of the spool because then I hafta straighten the tie wire out. main thing i had to accept was doubling the wire BEFORE threading it amongst the rebar & conduits.
so yeah, tie wire good. soft stainless steel wire better: don't rust so much
Hot…come to Australia…anytime around Nov to March ….most places will do….seen 50+dungarees science a few times and constant 45+ for weeks at our burning shithole…if it gets down to 35 in summer, we light the fire…
My pop is the king of 45 mins of set up to do a five minute job. Favorite words “It would be easier with two people” pop!! It’s lunch for fucks sakes. Hand me the bourbon
Ave must work in the mining industry. Aside from the core samples on his table, this bailing wire trick is used in the mine, plus the shot at atlas copco he made in a previous video. I smell a miner…with an E
Nice tip. Except all the steel wire I buy is already packaged for feeding from the inside of the spool. Given how springy that crap is, I never thought there would be people dumb enough to sell it on reel. Guess I misunderestimated 'Muricah once again.
I have an 89 yr old uncle that lives in Arizona. Smart as all get out. I live in the Pacific NorthWest. I finally got him once on the crazy heat thing. He said to me one August while on the phone…
Him: when you coming down to see me? You’re slippin’ to the bottom of my favorite nephews list…
Me: whats the temp there?
Him: 114 today. Supposed to be 116 tomorrow. (45.5 & 46.6 to you fellas north of the border)
Me: holy crap… thats too hot uncle, I just can’t take it!
Him: yeah, but it’s a dry heat
Me: no, it’s a hot heat!
Him: but I’d rather be in over 100 degrees here than even at 90 up your way
Me: but it’s almost never 90 here uncle, maybe 5 days a year! It’s over 100 there everyday for like 5 months straight!
Him: yeah, but every place is air conditioned…
Me: well then, what fun is that if you have to stay inside all day?
He had, for the first time ever, no hilarious memorable smart aleck response. I had him and he knew it. So I visited him in December. It was outstanding weather hunting dove. Flannel shirts in the morning till about 9 then t-shirt weather the rest of the day, laughing our fool heads off swinging on the birds if we remembered to look up.
You think Arizona summer in a glory hole sea can is hot? Let me tell you about Hot until you been on the roof of a building as a Russian conscript, paid in vodka for the day to shovel radioactive shit for less than two minutes for the day
It’s unbelievable how much I have learned from the the old guys on the claim….now I am the old guy on the claim…”stick with me kid, you will wear diamonds”
"Bustin Rod" OK, but "Laying Sod" for pouring concrete is not a thing …. (Anywhere)
but it rhymes so ….
³/⁴ is 19mm.
Wrap the Annealed Wire.
The heat of the meat increases with the angle of the dangle.
Don't piss on Superman's Cape.
Don't spit into the wind.
Don't pull the mask off the ol' Lone Ranger.
Everyone messes with Jim!
Jeeeez. .. where you been? I encapsulate the whole roll with duct or 10mil tape then cut an X in the center of one side and fish out the end. This trick works for just about any kind of material that comes spooled up. ..like those Costco kitchen garbage bags. Just cut an X in the center of the spool abd fish out that last garbage bag through the X and the rest will peel out nice and neat, One at a time until all gone
