First Garden, Breaking Ground with the Earthwise TC70016
First use of the tiller in the Garden Plot. This video is uploaded out of sequence from the rest of the First Garden series, but will be put in the correct spot in the playlist.

Apologies for the autofocus issues.
I had to plug a tire on my wife's Jeep after she picked up a screw, so I figured I'd show you how to do it in case you ever need to.
After removing the tire, you want to refill the tire with air. Trying to plug a tire without air pressure in it is extremely difficult, if not impossible.
Then remove the foreign object, ream the hole and cram your plug in.
Make sure you leave about 1/2 to 3/4 inch of plug sticking out the hole and don't trim it off.
Once you've got it plugged, refill the tire again and check for leaks.
Hope this helps, and sorry about all the closeups of of my groin area.

Check the prior well project videos for the full well water test results.
Basically my plan is to treat the water inside the well in the same method an anode rod works in a water heater.
Seeing how I can't source a 2 inch thick calcium rod, I'm using a 3 inch piece of drainage pipe with a bunch of holes in it to suspend about 40 pounds of marble chips above the well pump.
Not sure if this plan will work, but for about $50 in materials, it seems like its worth a shot.
More to come...

New video, It Works!!:

UPDATE: Tidradio replied to me about the video.
The channels above the gap were programmed for Weather stations and for RX Only.
Apparently there is a glitch when writing channels if there is not a TX frequency, which can be seen on the video.
I will be testing this by adding a TX freq on the weather channels to see if that fixes the issue.

UPDATE: Fix Confirmed!!! Adding 146.52 as a TX Freq to each of the 10 weather channels allowed a successful programming. A follow up video will be posted in the next day or so.

The item is only currently available on Amazon at:
https://amzn.to/3wwa0Fi and costs about $13.
I am hoping that they work out a few bugs and user interface issues.
If they do so, this has the potential to be a very nice addition to your go bag.
Currently, it does need a bit of work.
legal bs:
As an Amazon associate I make a few pennies if you buy stuff thru my links.
I was given this product to test and review at no charge.
No other compensation was given, and this video expresses my honest opinions of the product, including the good, the bad and the ugly.
