hey everyone good afternoon from shahalas washington
i'm all settled into my campsite over here
got a nice newer site that i've not been to
i'm also the la it was tough to get level right there
but i got no neighbors down here on this side so it comes down this way got the
dump station down there and only partial hookups here 30 amp and water
no dump station here but i can make it a few days out here
except i just gotta watch my back make sure my neighbors don't tattletail on me
for being outside my rv because we are told to stay in our
rvs as i said project day and
i need to repair a crack in my windshield i'm going to try to do it
myself because safe light in olympia is out two weeks and it's 135 dollars to
repair a crack i think i can do it myself for a little
cheaper the windshield itself is really dirty i do apologize for that but the
crack is right there that's the crack
there's a there's a pit you can hear it and i don't want it to spread so i'm
gonna try to repair this crack and here is the kit i got at autozone i
already opened it up because i wanted to read the directions
14.99 and it comes with some directions and stuff
and the little plunger with the resin and the sticky stuff
and and uh so yeah that's what i'm going to use and
see if this helps be clear here it's not going to erase
all the cracks it's going to fill in the pit
and then it's going to protect it so that the cracks don't spread
remember this windshield was brand new when i bought the rv
like a year and a half ago two thousand dollars
to put that windshield in so you know to to help my investment i i need to
make sure that these cracks don't spread this the first and only real
crack pit that i've gotten on the windshield too so
first step i'm going to clean the whole windshield get it looking really really
nice and then we'll we'll tackle cleaning out the pit of the
crack
yeah so the first step is to dig out the pit and they say to use a push
pin which they don't give you and i don't have one i do have an old
clothespin kind of paper clip thing so i'm just gonna get in there and get
any loose particles out of the pit there i guess that's what i'm supposed to do
okay i'm gonna take off the back of this and
put this adhesive tab on with the tab sticking up
like that with the pit right in the middle there
make sure that's secure on there and peel off the
green here i'm gonna put this on here line that up just like that
like that make sure it's in there real good
okay okay then it says to pour in three quarters of the resin
make sure it's coming out okay it is
cool
how do i know when it's three quarters
i think that was three quarters save this for step 10 it says
okay okay then we're going to use our plunger make sure it's fit
tight right there and we're going to pull up to the second
thing right here until it clicks there's one there's two
hold it there for 10 minutes like that all right it's been 10 minutes
directions say pull out the plunger momentarily
to get some air in there put it back in and clip it down to the second mark on
there
and leave it there for 10 minutes no 20 minutes or more
what do you do while that's uh curing over there well well you turn on the
water turn on the fan to high get that misting
going like crazy
crack open a barley pop be patient
oh you wouldn't like it all right it's been about 30 minutes
so i'll take this out
it says to use a razor blade to start getting this off which again they don't
include a razor blade but i do have one so we'll go under the tab there
hopefully that's enough to start pulling this off
oh it's kind of coming it wants to come let me set that down
okay we got some of it wipe that real quick
guess we're really going to have to use the blade on here
i thought that would just come up with it
hey it looks a lot better though guys it's kind of slippery
gonna come off in pieces okay wow i don't even see it hang on
wipe this clear again oh my gosh it looks so much better
clean it with the knife again
then use the last bit of the resin on this for whatever reason
okay please tell me i didn't use it all come on we can get some out of
there there's no more resin in there guys it's
empty so i can't do that last step i don't know how we're supposed to know
what's two three quarters of it to use but you know what
here i'll show you okay even though the glass is still really dirty
it's almost completely gone
you can still see it there it's not as bad as it was though right
i realize it's really hard to see because no camera really wants to focus
on the window we're all focusing on outside but i'm going to point to it
from the inside here there's the old crack
i'm well i just can't seem to get it in the
anyway it's barely noticeable anymore it's basically gone
and it definitely won't spread okay you know overall i'm really happy with how
it turned out i did it myself i got her done um also we'll go a little
walk here i uh over the last few days i've really
been having some fun uh collecting mickey stuff mickey mouse
stuff uh if you follow my channel you know i'm
taking this pretty seriously guys i i am actually going for the
guinness book world record for the biggest mickey
mouse collection in history that's what my actual goal is just so
you know in order for you to understand i was actually going through some of my
old files and i came across i know i've talked about my old simpsons
and coca-cola collections of the past i found some 2008
really old cell phone video of my simpsons collection
which was valued which was appraised at forty two thousand dollars and that
yeah i entered the uh p wallet fair hobby collection area there and it got
second place one year at state for washington so
in order for you to understand what i see my mickey mouse collection evolving
into a decade from now i think you should take a look at what
my simpsons collection actually looked like right before i sold
the entire thing for 500 on craigslist to pay my
apartment rent in 2008 very very sad and depressing
but let me let me show you part of my collection and i'm sorry for the quality
of the cell phone video all right yeah this is
some really old video all got all the characters on the wall the pedestal
look at all the characters on the ground and i see you see the big duff
blanket there in the sleeping bag in the background same thing i want to do with
uh mickey mouse the steering wheel cover and then all these blue shelves now
it's kind of hard to see everything in this collection because i'm going
through it so if i use the telephone that was telephone there
chess set there's some food and stuff and the old video games and vhs tv
guides look at all those vhs board games cups
of all kinds coffee cups stuff toys there's
some intricate stuff in that little cabinet
that i skimmed over all the little characters i mean it was crazy guys
and i'm using books and towels as background there's a kite
yep then my little neon clock and shirts are in the background the old dartboard
look at all these plush toys and all the dvds and everything
guys it was incredibly massive it's funny
okay okay to put it into perspective my coca-cola collection
was even worth more and took up an entire room
where the simpsons collection only took up like half a room okay that's what i
see my mickey mouse collection looking like in
a decade from now and it's just a little bit at a time right
a dollar here five bucks there everything is going to have
a certain history to it to where i got it and how it came into my life
and how it got added to my collection at my house in illinois
so with that said i have been flea marketing
and garage saleing and thrift store searching i've went to a couple antique
stores here in the last few days and i have quite a few new very unique
older pieces and i'm really going for the older retro mickey stuff to add to
the collection and many of these pieces are 70s and 80s
that i'm about to show you pieces that really are going to make my
collection stand out very unique from every single era
somehow i still feel like i'm a little embarrassed even showing you because
i literally now have an everything under my bed is all mickey mouse stuff
ready i'm gonna have to ship it out to my buddy sean and have him hold it at
the shop till i get there because i'm gonna have to cool it i'm gonna have
to start taking it easy here because i'm running out of space in the rv
okay i have to add on to the house another
extra storage or a lean to or something for it all
but let's i'm really going to show you this okay
check out this epic additions i have made here we go
all right i know this looks crazy guys but
i'm getting into this okay i'm really getting into this geez where
do we start here let's start in the back here the mickey
mouse photo frame basically a complete set these are all
plastic so you got the little sauce pans there the big tray there
and these little plastic cups there with mickey and goofy on them
let's see over here we got a walt disney world now you can see it a walt disney
world keychain with mickey okay so this i don't know if it was
supposed to be an electric toothbrush at one time but it's a toothbrush and
toothpaste organizer here this whole thing it's also powered but
does not currently work i may look at it later
this is another mickey mouse three-dimensional radio there with the
dial right there a couple mickey mouse stickers that
one's from walt disney world a hallmark ornament with mickey
sorcerer's apprentice there plastic faded figurine also that bowl
goes with that set over there this is a glass mickey mouse piggy bank
all right this piece here let me hold it up like this you pull it like this and
mickey does aerobics love it mickey mouse push-up puppet
not exactly sure 1976 toy though let's go back over to the left side here
mickey mouse dance a tune he does come off there i think this is
supposed to spin with some batteries or something like that but
yeah at least that's complete and what is this trombo oh that goes to it okay
so that little trumpet thing goes to it might need batteries
might need repair i don't know that's a mickey mouse
pencil sharpener see it yeah mickey mouse on a tricycle bicycle
this piece might not look like mickey mouse but i knew it was a music box and
when i flipped it around it does say disney toy on
it guess what what do you think happens if we go like this
mickey it's like a jack-in-the-box a mickey mouse ball that needs to be
inflated a little better and cleaned see a tiny little mickey mouse on metal
wheels a spinning mickey mouse that you can
make dance a wind-up mickey mouse that walks this just goes on the wall with
his bow tie interesting uh plastic mickey mouse here
with some red shorts a mickey mouse gabble i guess it is it's
a plastic gavel a mickey mouse rolling thing that will
stay up when you knock him over okay mickey
mouse holding an apple and a suitcase there i feel like that
might be from sleeping beauty i'm not sure a
mickey mouse wind-up robot here and i'm gonna break
it two mickey mouse pins this one says superstar
this one looks a little older it's made of rubber these are supposed to be
magnet i guess it does say magnet on the back
magnetic okay and there's two of them in different
sizes and then from 1976 this mickey mouse plush toy here finger
puppet maybe otherwise i'm going to try to slow down
a little bit on accumulating a bunch of stuff i'll be
a little more picky from here on out and just try to get some really
unique original older stuff and not so much little tiny
stuff because you know paying three to five dollars
per little thing i mean it's gonna add up you know
it's gonna get much much crazier than my magnet collection believe me guys
i'm glad you've been around for the very start like the very start of this
because as now that you've seen my simpsons
collection of the past you know how dedicated i am to it and how
seriously i'm going to take this over the next decade okay
so meantime i'm not leaving here tomorrow
staying here one more day we're just camping camping although they have
