Remember to put the other two halves together and sell it as a screaming deal like a proper scumbag.

Dang buddy. Get well. AND dont put him on your healing bench!!!!!!

A well lubricated wife is a happy wife. I assume you hired a subcontractor to do the job?

Mans best freind

"Good Buddy, you'll be fine." Reaches for the robot parts box, "now, in a rare bout of prescience.."

Funny the video is all about a drill and the comments are all about the ol puppers. He looks like he's got some years on em, funny how the dirty bastards get into your life. At first their puppies that you question why you bothered then before you know it your going to work wondering if he's enjoying the station you left the radio on in the house.

I hope buddy heals up good. Pups are worth it always.

"I've been wrong before. I'll be wrong again." I'm guessin' if the wife's home that'll probably be today.

"Demonetized." I just about spit out my coffee.

Get well soon Buddy.

Here's a toast to Buddy's speedy recovery!

Was just getting ready to peck out a comment on thanks for showing how you sniff out the problem etc, etc, and all that flew out the window when I saw ole buddy having a rest there. Hope he stays happy and keeps with it once he gets a bit better there. Stay well friend.

I hope Buddy recovers quickly. The bonus footage of him caught me out and has put a lump in my throat.

I’m so glad you caught that his stomach flipped in time. Hopefully he’s back at it in no time.

Dear AVE, I have found the same alignment issue with the older Makita impact drivers that were truly used and abused. I found that the indent where the back bearing goes to have been worn out too. I fixed the issue with some tape around the back bearing. The motor issue was not the case for the impact driver because the motor was brushed. Overall my makita tools have been super used and the only problem I have ever was this misalignment. Thank you for the great content! Keep it coming!

You are such a good person for paying your dog back for his unconditional love and loyalty, I'm a little liquored up at present but it brings up memories of my dog, if there was anything we could have done for him we would have but he was 16, smaller dog, we had the vet come to house, he was on my lap (I was certainly his favorite person and spent the most time with him) gave him a couple pieces of cheese to distract him from the first shot he was getting in rear, one to really relax him, almost knock him out and feel warm and fuzzy inside. My mom started crying over the fact that we could never give him anything tasty to eat besides his treats, we had the best dog ever, Jake, he had a liver shunt so it was really important to give him specific proper diet, I thought it was little cruel so I would always sneak him a little something tasty, I wouldn't expect you'd be happy eating the same thing for every meal of your life! If he got too much protein he'd get really sick, something to do with his liver issue, they didn't think he'd live past a year when he was diagnosed when we were looking to get him fixed, partly because of that he got to keep his balls and he lived to older than most dogs did, he would have lived longer but it wasn't a good life anymore, he was almost completely blind and deaf, he had arthritis and was limping for awhile until we got him meds, that fixed him up for awhile but he was still slow in his old age, had ramps to all of his favorite spots in the house because he couldn't jump anymore, he was still the most loving dog. Our whole family poured all the love we could muster into him, especially the day the vets came over, I think he had a really good life, nobody ever treated him with anger or contempt and he was such a happy guy. I felt really bad about it but he was in pain I think and he was just too tough and caring to make a big deal over it. Anyways I just wanted to salute you, your dog looks like a great friend.

My parents have a lab who had a similar surgery. I saw pictures of his intestines. They were blocked by some mass. At the spot of blockage the intestine was swollen to 3 times it’s size and went from red color to black at the blocked area. They removed a part of it, stitched him up, and he lived for many more years until just a few months ago. Good pup. Good on you for not giving up on him

Hope buddy feels better. Thanks for sharing.

My Makita is still to this day after 4 years flawless in performance after persistent heavy abuse. Where I worked we bought 5000 drills at a time. The DeWalts we tossed more than half in the first 6 months, over 90% by the end of the first year. We then bought 5000 Milwaukee drills, they did better mostly loosing their chucks, motors or triggers within a year and a half. We then got 5000 Makita LXT hammer drills, we replaced only 13% in the first year and a half, a long term contract was signed. I still have mine and abuse it today with it's original batteries, still flawless. With these sorts of statistics in my history, it's unlikely I'll get anything else. I did give Portercrapple a try, threw the drill and a rock, pissed me off, worst ever, even Harbor Freight is ten times the drill.

just lost my old dog this week, loved the bit with your goldie hope he's making a full recovery and yes they are the loyalists persons you'll ever meet

My guess is the bearing misalignment was the cause, not the symptom, of that missing lamination. Imagine how fast that thing is going at top speed, and then that magnetic core smacks into it. Just think if that back piece gets tweaked even a little; All that plastique can't hold that rotor in EXACTLY the right place.

Hell with the toolz, take care of the fur-kid!

Get well soon Buddy Buddy's guest appearances are the only reason I watch these God awful vijayos

that was a close one buddy,

Sharing the knowledge that sets the hands of many fearful people back to work! Great job! You always have a way of inspiring those of us who don't think it's possible to repair this kind of stuff :)

Best thoughts to you Buddy.

Prayers too mans best friend ... Get well soon Buddy

An Othello quote and a moment at the end that made me cry. Thanks for both and I hope your dog is okay now.

Get well soon buddy nothing more faithful than man's best friend Keep up the great work Ave

And I'm truly sorry about your pup. I hope he gets better soon!

Get well Buddy!!

gave you thumbs-up for not putting him down

Bit with the pup bout teared me up. There is literally nothing more sacred than the loyalty and love of a good dog. We owe them all we have for the unconditional affection and understanding they offer us.

it is possible that a larger chunk of material, got in while the motor was spinning and jammed between a lamination and the magnet of the rotor, it is a open motor with very little as far as screening and if its been cutting bricks or something really hard, it might do that.

Get well soon Buddy!

Seeing Buddy brought back memories.....and a little bit of precipitation.....Cheers to you both

Your dog is a trooper we can tell just from the little footage at the end. Nothing like a loyal mans best friend.

Money is temporary, dogs are the best friends you will have!

Doggo!! Hope Buddy is feeling better now Ave.

I am 68-years-old Vietnam Vet. I have learned so much from your videos, and have reason, now, to think that the learning curve is just getting warmed up. Thanks, neighbor of the North.

"Speaking of This Old Tony".... Made me spit refreshing beverage on the floor!

Hope buddy heals up quick! Twisted gut is no joke.

AvE, Keep us up to date on the Pooch! Thanks

I dropped my old makita drill 40ft onto concrete from a telephone pole. It did something very similar. I ended up loosening the pack cover and it was useable again. There was a crack through the plastic case. I used it to drill 3/4" 18" auger bits for about two years after before I finally dropped it again. This time the old fonzerelia didn't work. It was the old style with the three speed gear box. For the shit I put that drill through, I'd buy another in a heart beat. It was probably 3 years old when I dropped it, I ran her hard and wet for about 5 years total. It was a good drill.

Glad to see Buddy is doing alright! I've worked in the veterinary field for a few years now and a flipped stomach can turn out terribly. Thankfully I've never seen one recur after that surgery is done. I don't know if they explained what they do to prevent it from reoccurring but the surgery is interesting in how simple it is. They cut through to the tissue layer around the stomach and make an incision. Then they suture that tissue to the abdominal wall and the body naturally heals itself and creates basically a biological weld and keeps the stomach in place. Pretty neat stuff. Wishing Buddy a speedy recovery!

Hope your dog feels better ave

poor poochy dog

Best wishes to buddy hope he has a speedy recovery. Keep up the good bud love the vids

I love how the corpses are scattered about the bench from the previous few videos. Just throwing this out here, but you have some of the most entertaining videos on KZfaq. Thanks as always!

Glad they patched up your pup! My girl is my favorite person and I would do anything I could for her if It could help her. To Buddy's health! 🍻

Seeing Buddy laying there my eyes got sweaty with respect. Hang tough heal fast! All the best to the pup!

Pulled an AvE this morning. Tore into an angle grinder.... thought it was the switch, was a spring on the brush. Gotta get some of the pink tape and brighten up the work benches. Good wishes to the hound. Countdown is beginning for that million subscribers....

So glad your pup is doing better. Give him lots of love and treats!!!!!

Prompt rétablissement Buddy!

Poor loyal old buddy still wags his tail, damn that tree carcass dust swirling around getting in my eyes.

I'm so glad your dog is ok, and you chose to save him. 4 years ago I made the wrong decision... It still plays on my mind most nights. Love the vigails, you put a smile on my face, well you and a case of John Smiths Bitter.

Thanks for sharing another great video. I hope the Dog makes a full recovery. Man’s best friend!

"Going to fix it till it's broke" Lmao!!

Aw, get well soon Buddy!

Had to put my golden down last year. I saw yours and and my heart skipped a beat. Glad he's ok.

Sending love for your Buddy! He looks so sweet and loyal!

Heart breaking to see an unhappy Lab. Get well soon buddy! All the best to the AvE clan.

"Buddy" will be around for a some great times!! THANKS on his behalf, & thank YOU from someone who KNOWS taint never a better buddy!.

glad he is healing up for you. We just this week lost our loyal family sidekick of 12 years to cancer. tough to get through. enjoy him while he's here.

I hope your dag feels better soon, his guest appearances make these videos awesome

Get Well Soon Buddy!!

Hope your pupperdog is feelin better soon.

The way you treated your dog made me so happy. You are the best.

Hope your friend is better, lost mine last year, nearly decided to go with him. They are a gift from the gods.

get well soon buddy! poor guy always makes me upset when i see a unwell doggo

glad the drills back to working order! I use that exact one to start up my 16hp tecumseh tractor engine hah. Best wishes for miss poochie! That made me sad to see

Thinking positive thoughts for your steady companion Buddy! Speedy recovery!! That was a great vijeo, but it's easily forgotten within seconds after view that last view tidbits. You are a kind soul. I am a firm believer that dogs sense sympathetic heart felt emotions from their owners. He knows you love him and are doing your best to heal him and providing comfort. You hurt too, because you love him deeply. Be well!

So glad you fixed both the drill and the good boy.

Get well soon buddy!

I was a gunsmith in the military, designed power tools for Hilti and now make F1 engines. This channel is like crack for me.

My doggo had that happen while I was out of town. So glad you caught it in time for yours.

One Canadian to another, you are the best thing to come out of the Frozen North since Bob and Doug.

Give Buddy a good pettin' for me!

Did the Vet tack his stomach to prevent recurring GDV? Don't elevate food/water bowls. Divide ration/water into several small portion t/o the day. 🙏

I hope that your pupper is doing well. Nothing beats the unconditional love that we get from our canine besties!

Thank you for helping Buddy. Our pets are as much a part of the family as relatives, and most of the time much more. Could you PLEASE make a PSA for your channel about the twisted stomach issue to spread awareness and tips on how to prevent it. We lost a dear Shepard two years ago to the same condition, but even with immediate care, he didn't make it. Buddy is one lucky pup to have you as a dad.

Glad you were able to save the pooch... Get well little fella

Sorry aboat yer pupper-doggo.

Speedy recovery to your buddy! Our old lab is getting a little slow. Not much time left on her clock.

Here's to Buds swift recovery AvE. Lost my cat today, it's not easy. Got my labs keeping me company, we're lucky to have these guys. Hope this defect is an odd one out, that's my drill.

Wouldn't a side impact create an oval deformation, when " realigned" cause the de-lamination?

Awe buddy. Get well soon.

Your end credits are oddly relavant. I watched this to take my mind off my missing pup. After 5 hours of searching in the dark, I'm ready to find her already. Thanks brother

Few things get to you like seeing your animals suffering. But he's in capable hands, this I know. All the best for a speedy recovery. Side note, this is an excellent video. I really enjoy seeing the troubleshooting processes.

Get well soon doggo.

and good luck with buddy there

3:47 HAHAHAHA, possibly one of the best adages I've heard you say yet I hope everything works out with your dog!!

I'm glad your old puppy is okay. You've got a big ol' heart.

get well soon buddy

A swift recovery to your furry friend!

pretty sure some kind of debris got inside through the vents, and dude I am with you on 100% on not putting a friend down!! keep up the good videos!

Two fold. I have that Makita and love it. Everything from fasteners to drilling hardened metals. Second. I recently lost my dog to the same problem. 13.5 year old boxer lab.

“I’ve been wrong before and I’ll be wrong again” show me another Tuber with the balls to say this and admit he’s not perfect.

Maybe not the same gut issue, but an old wives tale says the uphill swallow of the tall dog with the bowl on the floor can make the belly twist- I dont get it but my old english mastiff bubba got told to eat off the table.

will keep my fingers crossed your buddy pulls through AvE.
