USUAL WARNING - SUBTITLES CONTAIN ERRORS! THANKS. CALLUM.
I just look at the mess here this was a tidy workbench and we got to sort it out
see everything needs a home if you've got a home for everything there and in
the place of the mess you go well know where that lives
they're like little soldiers aren't they so this is a working bench so there's
some stuff here that just stays here you see this is two three nine assemblies
compartment built but that's okay it's kind of like a little production line
and just leave it there the rest of it it got lost
we'll have to use a bag I don't like bags because you get a little holding a
bag and all the screws come out the bottom don't they I'll tell you what the
other thing we got to do today is we're gonna make the what's the word for it
the doublet connector for the top of the tree so I've got enough plastic around
here I'm sure we'll be able to make something realistic you know guys do you
recognize this it's an original d-10 holder apparently it clips on the back
of a Land Rover or something now when I bought it I had the impression that it
came apart but I just can't see how it comes apart maybe it doesn't come apart
I better vac as well today this is my own box of tricks
so that's 4dx commander in the field and then a box of paddock bags which I use
if you put a DX commander when you open the box some of the smaller components
are in the pan deed banks I'm just running out of room just running out a
run everywhere okay for 50 ohm we know about don't we need that tomorrow
horizontal space it's a very wealthy area this and you can't buy a house
along this road fault probably under two three million
I mean they've got new builds going on three or four houses down the road here
and they're going for only five bedroom houses they're not much bigger than what
I live in but because of the road they don't for 2.7 million and of course
we're on this farm in the middle of all these multi-millionaires
so look Jasper Carrott who just lives the other side of the road we got Tony
Nomi whatever he's called the Black Sabbath man he's just next door fella
called Eric who I've done some work for on annual income I worked out somewhere
between 30 and 50 million a year footballers football managers football
club owners you know all that long so it's quite funny so where I know I'm
putting up these 80 meter poles now anyhow with luck cuz they're so wealthy
they probably couldn't give a stuff that it's not on their land you see I have a
lot of hose clamps and you take a hose clamp apart you see thread it through
tubing and then you telescopic pole it acts a certain little clamp and it stops
the section one falling down to section zero if you know what I mean
so but I found I looked around buying aquarium tubes quite expensive
this wasn't much cheaper but I bought ten meets the burly stuff and I don't
know we'll have to take it a lot thinner but it might work more elegantly I don't
know I'll have to build one and see but anyway something else a store isn't it
every time I buy something so this in here is my shelf for a good idea at the
time so all the stuff that was a good idea at the time
I put on that shelf and our trouble is I've now started putting on other
shelves and boxes so I have to stop myself buying stuff because it was a
good idea at the time just
everywhere shit shit everywhere it's my mini dustpan and brush used to
live there and now it does again files go down here I've got some drawers at
home I've completely cleared out and I'm gonna bring them down here so I can fill
them up again with bullshit now for all of those who want to ex-commander mother
I can't imagine why but there's two ways we could do this I could either just
send you the logo and you go on on eBay supplier and order a black mug but it
wouldn't be an official Dax come on amok I get that by the way so I think what we
should do is get gloss black cuz it's a gloss black logo I think it Wendy to
find me a hundred for under a tenner shipped if you know to me I don't really
want to stock them I prefer if we could drop shot them somehow I could put them
on Amazon spinach so he's interesting this is no long no this is UHMWPE
production pieces nice but in a real yellowy colour they're
supposed to come out that colour and I don't know why they sent this they sent
it is like spares or something oh I know we could do we'll use this to make the
top of the doublet there we are solves that problem I don't know what to
do with them I don't I throw these away as you know it's
this happened to you people say to me oh oh I've left it on your doorstep they've
taught on your doorstep you know I've got a lead my guitar lead start working
well buying you think guitar lead sound the goodness of my heart I suppose I
really ought to look at this and fix the lead as soon as you own a soul ring on
your a ham radio operator people drop these amplifiers stop working over there
or could you fix it no thing about valve amplifier guitar amplifiers actually
looked in the back and one of the vowels that smashed oh man there's your problem
this is a NIC Hong d3000 it's probably taken a hundred pictures doesn't take
video see I only take stills that's not good for me anymore I used to take
pictures all the time scaffolding connectors loads of them brand-new
scaffold pole around with all my lights on it so because I get fed up with the
wrong lighting when I'm working or filming but when am I going to do that
for them by the way Vasiliy I'll keep you down the show for two
reasons if I'm doing outside work with PL two five nines I've got a big dollop
of Vaseline on my hands and just as I finally tying up the SI 239 was coated
in Vaseline and it's not permanent I don't think but he can rain for a few
days and you can wipe it off and if it gets on your hands it just dries in and
make your hand soft trouble is with silicone grease it's uber permanent and
it gets on you just don't like it but this stuff it's great for holidays and
great for testing
now very rarely do you get them in this soil condition this is brand Rex quality
assured full dispatch ministry defense law Parker when was it made
oh four but it is literally brand brand spanking you so what I do so I hang it
on the wall and pull it out know what I used to do is walk down the farm and
then walk down 55 meters walk back up cut it and then roll it around mom all I
wanted to do is make just a hand real so go there has 55 meters you know just
count it off get to 72 or whatever it is 55 meters and I thought that this thing
here would have would have somehow helped me it's just a waste of bloody
time though isn't it I can't get the middle out Kyle get the drum out and I
can split the drum so I've contacted Dee the manufacture and they said they will
do the most economical run is fifty thousand meter run but not of twin
they'll do a single wire and they'll put on the side of the drum what it is dx10
I just thought we'd call it to the factory someone coming in the world shop
hang up it was a delivery for one of the units but I mean nobody
you know so years ago the farm was actually a lot bigger it's an 800 acre
farm to make it profitable apparently you need double that so that's why the
farmer does lots of other interesting things like builds units rents them out
people like me um there's a big house beautiful house this side that was the
original farmhouse but it's one of these 2.7 million pound houses now there's
another house that side that was one of the sons
that's another 2.7 million pair house so a farmer actually lives across the road
and down a bit but that it's a farm house and in the UK the special
legislation you got to live on the farm and you can put a dwelling and the
bottom line is and let's talk I've got a halo um whereas if I wanted to build a
build a house there I couldn't but fun on the could you see just interesting
all right now I'm making a mess against Wendy needs an Ethernet cable at the
house and this is my what used to be my home box
he's now turning into well Oh more connectors then are the backup camera
I've been looking for that I'm after Wendy once Ethernet that's fine that's
done now HDMI cables and I want a mini or micro is it USB lead I've got one in
it surely just that hey I got to show you my box I see you ask a girl but I
mindlessly made that coil now how you probably can't see how big days but it's
about 15 inches it's a 40 centimeters long 2 inch in diameter
there must be 80 turns there and you could load you could make a
little mini top band you know I don't know I've never used it I just
mindlessly did it for one day thinking I'll just make a call that all this wire
I see what we want you say a doublet how other people have made a doublet Center
do this so I could hang it from here that's my hanging point I could use
these holes for one side of the doublet and the other side of the doublet but
reality I'd probably need another hole there and use that a strain relief and
that has the connector ignoring that hole of it all chopped off what I don't
need and then say a couple more holes coming up give it a bit of any LT any
for the ladder lined a balanced feeder so in fact I could just chop this I'll
tell you need to chop it do i what does that bit for then nothing it doesn't do
anything all these probably yeah so they're my
main connectors there and there I'll drill some holes put six mil nuts and
bolts through four connectors or ring connectors on there then come down and
go behind there and then up there actually go behind there up there and
then back through there if you know what I mean
I just want to had it before where it's it's broken that the lower lowest point
I don't know I'm not going to do this today I'm gonna take this home and just
ponder with it goes draw the other side I'll take the other two as well so your
thoughts on that ap or picture on the Internet
that would work well would be handy I was gonna put the cow eggs I mean ice
trouble is if I do the coax I'll gonna take the tuner out unscrew the coax take
the plug off drill the hole put it on I just can't be bothered to be on it Tony
I'll call it a day here I've never tidy up and I've started to think about the
doublet I already have a a chase line if you know I mean going up back down the
tree so I can hold it up easy enough I'll go for a walk up and have a look at
the other tree about 35 40 meters up the road where we need to fling one side of
the doublet over the other side down here might need my ladders because
there's a steel pole it's quite high it's about 25 feet but eight meters ish
nine meters and I really need to I don't know is that there happens to be a steel
loop and I would like to connect it to that but ideally I want to come down
with a like a pulley and I just got to be conscious and not taking a mickey out
of and the farmers courtesy if you know what I mean so I'm gonna start drilling
holes and all the steel work than putting cleats in everything I want it
to be just kind of hidden out of the way I think I'll use some of that
super strong 12 16 millimeter three-quarter inch type bungee cord that
I bought travellish I'll put the doublet up and then it might need to have more
tension so I have to get the ladder back up and retention it I think I will do
that I'll tension it at the top I'll just guess the amount of wire I need or
I could drop a go oh that's about a foot drop it down and at this point take your
foot off it and then put it back up again maybe a nice easiest way anyway so
there we are a day down all I haven't have given you a show around all of my
new toys and what I've done how it's all working how old yet another
day but I did buy these big speaker brackets for the little mini a visa many
V's mini to me place and that's great so what the two subs and the nice tops are
out the way now you see I had it anyway it's it's not like I went out and bought
this stuff also need to do is buy the brackets and the brackets were cheaper
than me fabricating stuff out of scaffolding poem because I've got meet
hundreds of meters almost of scaffold I've got a truckload of scaffolding
poles around the corner and I had already at the k1 the k2 amp you see on
Iraq here the DBAs cross over the two subs it also means it's a good little
party set up I can whip all this out stick in the back of the car because
some people say oh tell them could you do a little PA from my party and I
normally say no but I thought and I say no because acts got to take all the big
gear with me but this is like a little mini PA now isn't it so no anyway all
dirty I'll see you next time thanks for tuning in Bob party
