Idk why I laughed so much when you were scaring your kid with the drill😁

This is not a lesson on how to fix a mower, this is a lesson on how to have a good relationship with your kids!

The robot scene with your kid was hilarious, had me laughing for a while. And the insights you give us into fixing things we never would have otherwise had the opportunity to learn about. You're like a dad to all of us haha. Enjoyed the video mate, thanks for sharing. :)

Perfect candidate for some Marty lovin........ Robot Dad was pretty damn good.

That closing drone shot was just a beauty, what a spot.

Enjoyed this one especially the drone footage at the end.I had a wasp nest in the eave of my cape cod style dormer. Had the brilliant idea to open the upstairs window and use a broom to knock down the nest. Picture an old fat man running out of the bedroom down over the stairs with a swarm of wasps in hot pursuit only to run out the front door into the rest of the hive executing a military precision flanking movement.

Love the robot! Now about that fridge... - Eric.

Marty I am addicted to your vlogs. I am now almost 70 years old and this reminds me of when I was a boy trying to fix old abandoned English motorbikes without spending any money 😊

still my favourite youtuber mate. i was in a serious accident, got hit by a car on my motorbike so I've watched KZfaq twice over while learning how to use my hand again and your videos are a breath of fresh air. thanks

Haha, the drill robot clip made my day :D

That robot walking with the drill gag must be among the top 10 of Dad tricks haha

That very last shot with the drone bro really shows off the paradise where you live the colour of the water is like lake made from emerald!!! Always love your videos bro can't wait to for the next one.

Jesus that last drone shot! You live in paradise mate!

I'd never heard of a flapper disc. You learn something new every day. Love the birdsong.

Great to see you bring old machinery back to life Marty. You are like a NZ version of Andrew Camarata - without a sledge hammer

I'm always tickled to watch you resurrect these old beater machines and make them new again!

When I was in my early teens, a friends dad had a slasher just like that. He got a molded plastic school chair, cut the front two legs off, welded an axle and wheels to the back two with a draw bar to the slasher. That was his ride on to cut the long grass at the back of their small acreage. Control the slasher with one hand and a beer in the other.

How does one guy learn all these various skills?! Refurbish an excavator, logging, bee keeping, boat repair....can’t let my wife watch these videos. Gotta keep the bar low! Liam Neeson and his “particular set of skills” has nothing on you man.

Lol at Mr. Roboto chasing the children. Oh and very competent repair on all of the issues on the $50 mower. Enjoyed that, greatly.

Marty that is fun how you acted like a robot and had good ole time with your kid. The brush looks good, you did a great job restoring it.

Ace result - love the sound of the birds.

Worth every penny, You couldn't by a new brush hog for $200 and a lot of the newer engines don't last. In the UK we have a different version of the Wasp Dance, has more arm flailing, thanks for the display.

Recycling,better than throwing away.You’re the best!

That shorts/ sock combo is incredible. Well done sir, I could not have chosen better myself.

5:32 omg I wish my dad did that lol

Fantastic robot, I’m going to steal that to use on my granddaughter 😎

Great video. I'm restoring an '82 MTD Lawnflite ride on mower. Proud father moment watching my son change a fuel filter, bad fuel hose and spark plug by himself. Worth every penny. He loves your videos 👍🏻

It is nice to see a video where the machine is cleaned before working on restoring it. I have watched so many where they work on them with grease , dirt, leaves, twigs, wasps nests, mouse poop, bird droppings etc. and then complain about the smell. it drives me crazy.

Now we know what "T" stands for. Marty T to old mower: "Come with meee if you want to liiive." "Old, but not obsoleeete"

"Yeahhhh" Exactly!! Best way to learn as a child by watching Dad! Love the robot act, her giggling is brilliant. Looks like a great Summer, must be time for some sailing videos around the Marlborough!

I could watch just a 20 minute episode of you just mowing around your property. Something so satisfying about it!!

Hi Marty,I rescued 2 of these mowers, used 1 for parts.I cut up a truck mud flap to cover the side throw, now it leaves a nice row of grass next to the mower as I go clockwise around my lawn tennis court I end up with only 1 row of clippings to rack up! Yours is missing the belt tensioner and cover plate on the top. The manufacturer was IBL in Petone.

You going to paint the rest of that fridge? Lol

I aspire to have your level of dedication. You're quite the role model Marty

Love how you did the robot with the drill that was truly awesome, stuff your daughter will remember forever is having fun with dad

Great video of your work and play!! Loved hearing your child scream with delight!! Loved the sounds of nature as well!! Looking forward to your next video!!

You are a legend Marty! Been with ya from the start, keep it up, can't wait for the next project.

separate the chains(make them individual/individual rows not linking) so they are not linked and they will not hold grass(will not back up with grass on the side shoot)

Nice to see old school painting being done on this mower. You seem to have quite the knack for bringing these various pieces of equipment back to life. Definitely amusing to see dad having a spot of fun with the children 🤣

Awe mate the drill bit at 5.12 with the wee one is hilarious.....🤣🤣🤣..🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

You are a true “Jack of all trades “. Throughly enjoy all of your videos!!

I think I accidentally strayed onto the wrong channel. The guy on here is actually painting something. That can't be right. ;)

That drone shot at the end looked amazing! It looks like you live in paradise.

Loved using the drill to make robot sounds for your kid. Great. I never thought of that.

I found a wasp nest that way didn't go back till after dark... the mower ran out of fuel first... wasps died soon after... good work.. nice job

Gets notification... Clicks on Marty T, if only for a brief moment, my world suddenly turns lush and green, the birds are chirping and singing. Crocs and shorts are the choice attire for the day. Marty there are people here in Northern Canada who would pay good money to be stung by a Bee right now. My lawn mower is parked, I won't be needing it for another 4-5 months, it's minus 10 C and snow is up to the door handles on the car. Oh how I envy you right now. The Bush Hog looks and works great, good sensible approach to the repair. Got to admire any man who can stop what he is doing for 2 minutes just to make his little boy laugh and smile. I've come to the realization, good people attract good people, love the channel and videos, must be why I subscribed cheers brother, keep them coming👍👍

Looks great. That robot impression was spot on!

Making old things new again! Keep it up my friend !

Piece of conveyer belt rubber or doormat over the edge of the shute should do the trick.

Marty single-handedly saving the planet from being buried in old neglected machines. Much respect. Just wondered if you thought about doing a quick DIY balancing of that blade. I know it was new but the rest of the base could have been out of balance. Once it was up to speed you would have found out pretty quick. Nice work!

by far the best restoration on this channel ... when I saw the chains, I thought you might bash the mower a bit to get that "Mr. T" patina

Nice work! For areas too small for a tractor, a mower like that can be very effective. I loved the kid clip 🤣

Howdy Marty!! Recently discovered your channels & after binge watching most of your videos, I am truly amazed at what you are able to do in repairing & refurbishing old machinery to make it useful again! Love watching your skills & insight into preserving the past & proving that old machines can be brought back & that they were built to last!!!!

Oh mate I really like to watch your videos when I am down or not in the mood. Thay make me feel so much better! Good job can't wait for more! Greetings from UK!

Hi from Ireland 🇮🇪 watching your summer garden work made me look forward to strimming!

This has inspired me to fix the old petrol mower under my house 🙂. I bought a house from a retired engineer who'd passed away and left his workshop full of tools. I need to prove I'm the new worthy owner of his house

That robot dance lol I love it!!

Watched a couple of times, still trying to get my head around the cutting edge being higher than the trailing edge... Got a similar project in hand here in oz, a bit smaller but similar in all respects. Love the old walk behind slashers - way capable but probably rougher and noisier than any modern versions. I doubt anyone will restore a modern mower in 50 years time, nothing like the quality of materials nor the build philosophy of making things repairable...

Wow! what a beautiful area you live in!! well done fixing up that mower, it's a beast!

What a good use for old brush mower. Most of the mowers here in the U. S. are going to string, what a waste of plastic. Glad to see you have a blade mower for use now. I also enjoy your birds calling in the background. thank's from Oklahoma, I will keep watching your vids.

nice cow you have there. she's got her going to town kit on, and everything. now you just need to figure out how to milk her and she'll be perfect. your boy is a lucky one to have a dad who can play with him and work at the same time.

Marty really went the whole hog on this project!

Oh my god - Robo dad! Brilliant! Ultimate dad moment. Plus, you can fix things. Worth every minute. Thanks.

What an amazingly beautiful country you live in, thank you for sharing it with us!

The way I've always seen is the top bearing on the blade shaft is always sealed since the grease you pump into the cavity will always migrate down and the top bearing will starve for grease if it's not sealed up. The bottom bearing should have it's top seal removed, leaving the bottom seal intact. Should use steel-sealed bearings instead of rubber/plastic so the pressure of the grease is less likely to push the steel sleeves out of place than the rubber/plastic. That's the way it is on my John Deere riding mower spindle assemblies.

Whenever I see a new Marty T video, Slice Of Heaven starts playing inside my head.

It's gorgeous where you live! Being below zero Fahrenheit where I live right now makes it even more attractive!

never ceases to amaze me that you get a pile of rust and bolts working .....then you surprise me by painting something you manage to get going again

1/2” round solid bar welded to the leading edge or the deck will increase the durability of the deck.

Marty: "So I got this 1,000,000 btu tiger torch for $10 and let's see about that wasp nest from the previous video..."

I can really relate to all your videos, some of the best entertainment I've ever seen. You are a jack of all trades, master of all trades Marty. I'm so grateful for all the detail in your videos. Thank you again.

They are an amazing bit of kit for Tight areas and large grasses, but like you show they are lethally dangerous when they throw stuff as they are just built like a tank but you have to be careful. What an amazing job you did with it once again with loads of Inspiration, I find that being a Scrounge is such an amazing hobby for me and others where you can take things that are never going to go again or repurpose things to meet your needs at cheap costs, Free, just our labor and sweat but now you have a motorized tool that is no toy doing a Job that is hard for us to get done? How can anyone not be enthused or uplifted by that content? or the morals of why waste everything? look at that unit, it's stronger than what is made today it's rebuildable as you have shown, it actually makes you a better man? being able to fix it once means when you need to do something again you know how it works, where the weakness may have been and what needed beefing up, plus I find even watching you work and my sweating watching LOL, gives me great ideas or just makes me feel good to watch a Dad deliver for his Family even when not a lot of money is involved, so the cop-out that I cannot afford to get started really falls short. I know many real MEN out here in the world has tools laying extra and if a Young Brother needs to get started then they may donate some tools so all you need to do is find an old toy to start with or something that may make you or your families life easier, then start with that because common interests help you to learn and grow, it gives you confidence in all aspects of life including social skills, it helps with your self-esteem because great people like Marty T made a call to better his or his families life one project at a time and now for years we have become one, The Inspirer and the Inspired. Cheers Marty and thanks heaps for the useful Content.

The 18 dislikes paid retail price for their lawnmower.

Lets see you tackle the wasp nest next,Marty style!

Another perfect job. You have a beautiful life down there. It’s so much fun to follow your rescues and rehabs. Thanks for sharing!

Amazing how you find worn-out equipment, repair it then put it to use! I haven't missed a single video! Thanks for sharing the videos they are a joy to watch!

I hope you had the wheel alignment checked after that axle replacement.😊

KZfaqr of the year

That's the best Robo Cop i have seen since Robo Cop Love your videos!

I always love reviving old cars and equipment. Things people give away for cheap that a little time will fix. Excellent video once again

...good one, stay safe...

just what i needed. thx.

I just discovered this channel a week ago. I already can't get enough. But the Terminator with the drill is so good!

For someone who relies on on an old FP washer in a creek for power, you certainly have all the tools that use lots of power. Blimey, it even has electric starting. Poor mower, some of those thistles were small trees you ran over. What a lovely shot at the end.

You need to get one of the sandbast add on kit for the pressure washer Hi form OZ

When he found that wasp nest, I felt that.

What a beautiful view you need to do a drone shot of the surroundings. Great vid you are one smart guy that's for sure.🤗🤗🤗

OMG, that robot drill trick was awesome. I wish my kids were still young enough to enjoy it. Hah!

Next build "flamethrower" for the wasp nest!! O yes!!

truly, only the luckiest machines end up in marty t's fleet.

The birds singing in your videos always sound so beautiful.

Awesome job Marty ,built to last. Great Robo cop impersonation👌🗽🇺🇸

@16:10 - Am I mistaken, or is that blade on upside down for that shaft?

I hope that was Marty’s beer fridge and not Mrs Marty’s .. or someone’s going to be in deep shit 😁

Hey Marty, love your scrub mower buddy they don't build them like that anymore. Oh mate that view from your drone was the money shot for sure mate. Awesome spot you have there, very lucky man. 🤠🤝🇦🇺

Me running this and finding every rock out there, then back to repairing after 5 min of use. lol

I've used small lengths of chain with good success, looks like looping it around plugs up pretty easy?

If it’s not a rude question Marty, how much land do you have there? We live on about 17 acres in Gippsland, southern Victoria Australia.

Okay man, you went over and above editing the tappy tap. Big smiles from me in the land of ice and snow. -27F this am.

Love the drone shot at the end Marty. And I am stealing that trick with the drill, that was hilarious!
