Thank Ricky, it's very nice of you to say! I'll still do video's, just need a break for a bit! Thanks again! :-)

Muchas gracias por tus vídeos y por tu tiempo dedicado.

Hi Pete, That's a real shame. I have been enjoying your videos for a while now, and yeah, you're not at work, this isn't a job, and you are putting a lot of effort in to give most of us a bit of entertainment and view into your hobby and fun activities. I will miss seeing you videos regularly, but will still be happy to see them whenever you want to release one. Take care of yourself, and try not to let the comments get to you too much. Looking forward to your next video, whenever you feel like it.

Thanks My Maker!! More video's to come. Just taking a break for a bit. :-)

Pete. Please don't stop doing what you are doing. I look forward to every video you post. I understand you have a life other than u tube but when you post a video its like you invite us to come hang out with you for the day and for a lot of us, we look forward to that. There will always be party poopers no matter what you do, but just brush them aside and keep uploading your unique content. From a retired mechanic in BC Canada!

Thanks Bob, you're a legend!! I'll still do more video's, just need a break for a while. Thanks again!! :-)

Pete please dont get upset about what people are putting on here, its always interesting to watch what your upto and i think we can all take away and learn something from your videos. As you know, we are only down the road a bit from you and looking through the comments here only confirms that majority agree with me on how good your videos are and recognise the hard work and effort that you put in to show us these things. All the best, Bruce.

Peter don't worry about what people say. Stick with the channel. I love it.

Love your channel Pete. It’s refreshing to see someone using their brain to get things done. I’ve been a mechanic all my life, first on light vehicles, then on HD equip in mines UG and open cut and ended up as a licensed aircraft maintenance engineer working on jet aircraft. I’ve never forgotten my start and it was in the school of common sense..the true art of engineering is knowing how things work and how the clever bastards put it together your short cuts are all based on this knowledge, the naysayers should stick to pruning roses and winging about their neighbours flower gardens. Look for the Perentie (without yellow tourist stickers) next time you in cookers and say gday. Cheers.

Hey Pete-mate, I am sitting in France on holidays but still had to login to U tube for my weekly update on your channel and was really saddened by your news. To quote someone much wiser than me, "don't let the bast..... get you down". Do what you feel is right, but you have lots of fans that want you to keep doing what you are doing. Cheers. Chris

Just add a disclaimer beforehand job done, 1 follower or ten thousand you have what it takes Pete it just takes time, your a genuine geezer and a great sense of humour (employee of the month 😂😂) if you start a patron page id be happy to contribute to what you do ..please consider it or add a members tag on KZread then you can post members only videos. Also if you're out and about on the bike it would be great to see some of your stunning country. Take pity on these people there life is that boring they have bugger all better to do.

Hey, Pete, just wanted to say thanks. Enjoyed watching All your videos. Anyone with a little common sense can see that you enjoy doing what you do. It is a rare thing These days, for people to enjoy what they do for a living. What's more rare than that A person to want to show and teach others how to enjoy it Try not to let the comments of a few. Dampen that rarness of you. We'll be waiting for the next video. Thank you for making my day better.

Aww Pete , this is sad to hear . I understand fully though . I dont see how anyone figures they have the right to criticize others in their own space. Mate , I enjoy every video you have made , I think I have watched them all. I especially like the one when you found the simple problem with that Hino engine on your generator. I watch 3 or 4 other Aussie channels Pete. All are done like yours , The owners spend time talking and making sure that those on this end know who is talking to us ! Thats great in my opinion, might not make you popular as fast as doing it some other way. You and my other mates have taught me more about machinery in the last couple years than I have ever thought possible. I thank you ! I live in the states and very much will look forward to any content you decide to make in the future ! Scott 🌵

Hi mate. This is another great episode. Please do not let these clowns pull you down. I get them all the time and it only makes you better. They can’t judge a bloke from a short clip nor do they ever show their face or what they can do. You know you’re going well at it when you get these germs are trying to slow you down mate so keep it up. You have a wonderful following and some wonderful supporters out there. Some of the personal ones are hard to get past at times but it lasts not even a day and you get over it really quickly. Your stronger than these keyboard warriors. Well done mate

Hey Pete ,just caught up watching all your videos today,you do good work and I enjoy them,always going to get some one criticising,they can’t help them selves, just keep on what you are doing,as some of us have common sense and have a laugh at the workshop short cuts ,as we no doubt do the same ,good luck with your channel

Gosh now I really want to know what the workshop hack is lol. Wonder if its something ive done before haha. Pete, I love your videos, so educational and I can tell your just a good all around guy. Heres a couple things Ive learned about youtube: 1. You have to have the thick skin (not saying you dont) for the armchair experts and no matter how perfect you do something, there is just always going to be haters and you just need to ignore them. Heck, you could just forget reading the comments all together if you don't have the time, then you don't have to deal with the bullshit. 2. There is no money in youtube nowadays. There used to be, but about 5 years ago or so youtube sunk the pay significantly for monetized channels. Idk if your goal was to eventually start making good money with this or not, but unfortunately its kinda a loosing endeavor unless your creating content that gets viewed in the 100's of thousands to 1mill plus views (sorta more like viral content or vids that the masses would watch). Unfortunately with niche content, its just hard as hell to get the subscribers. 3. Do what you enjoy and don't let any of us tell you otherwise. If it means the end of youtube for you then, thats okay. I hope you made some friends and enjoyed the journey. I enjoyed getting to know you. 4. I have no clue how you Aussies do all this work in sandals hahaha. Were sissy's up here and wear boots for everything. Cheers man!!

Hi Tyler, thanks for taking the time to write such an inspiring and supportive message. Have you ever taken the worn out grinding / cutting disc out of your 9" and put it in the 5"? This only works if you keep the safety guards on. Otherwise the disc may be too large a diameter and fly apart. But you didn't hear this from me!! Ha ha! Too hot to wear shoe's all the time. More video's to come. Just going to take a break for a bit. Thanks again!! :-)

@@pete-mate3524 Ha Ha yea grinders are dangerous. Used to run my own fab shop. Lots of guys even remove the safety guard which I'm not a fan of but to each his own. If the disk fits, then it fits. Run it. Those disks add up in cost if you use them enough. keyboard commandos prob haven't even picked up a grinder but once or twice if even. Cheers!

What ever happened to the roll pack?

Hi pete, one question when i add oil in the transmision that oil go for the gears and for the TC or i have to add oil to the TC from another site? Beacause my machine do a stange sound and that sound comes close for the TC and i think maybe its empy of oil or something

@pete-mate3524

Oh dear!! I hope it's all ok for you. The oil in the tranaxle is the TC oil. There are regulating and bypass valves in the TC housing that might be playing up. Maybe first, replace the trans filter and open up the old one to see if there's any metal inside. Good luck!!

@retrosymas8580

@@pete-mate3524 i think probably is some metal beacause the sound is like something metalic, but its stange beacause only do the sound when i use the machine 30 or 40 minutes and i put the shuttle shift in neutral, if i engage F/R the sound stop its stage, well i remember one day i don't know how but i was working and that sound starts i check the trans oil and it was very low, now i have put some oil and the sound still but it sound less noisy, i will replace the trans filter like you said and see if there's any metal, thanks!!
