FIXED1T is live - Unpacking Multi-connector Multimeter Probe Set


This video is about: Unpacking Multi-connector Multimeter Probe Set I purchased this lead set from ebay over 4 weeks ago and its only just arrived, it was a good price so was worth the wait. So lets unpack the multi-connector multimeter probe set and see what’s in the packet and how well it works looking at the bag in the packet there appears far more probes then I thought.

Yamaha DGX 620 Electric Grand Piano Teardown For Repair


This  @fixed1t  video has come about as the screen on my Yamaha DGX 620 Electric Grand Piano has developed a serious fault where half if not all the screen is blank or faded and lined. In order to get in to fix it I first needed to Teardown The Keyboard For Repair, as I do with all my repairs I video'ed the teardown so that I would know how to put it back together ;-) and which screws went where, rather than have one of those embarrassing situations where it doesn't work and I have a pile of screws left and other important bits. With all the noise our Lurcher Skippy came in to see if anything contained biscuits or treats and decided to lay down behind me. If this video helps you can buy @fixed1t a coffee https://www.buymeacoffee.com/fixed1tfix4. Thx. In part 2 I will be repairing the display and investigating why the keyboard makes such horrible 'Clunk' sounds when you release a key. Please don't forget to subscribe. Regards Malcolm aka @fixed1t

bushcampcodger Live PS4 8: What the heck happened in this insane match?


Hi all, I recently started trying to play Fortnite again on the PS4, for those who have been around the block a few times with me  @fixed1t  will know I did some Fortnite Sniper Tutorials many years back, then as the Arthritis in my hands got worse, leaving me with painful hands that only close to the point that they resemble Lego Film toy characters hands, I stopped. But Ollie mentioned that the bush camping style I'd used is now really popular I thought I'd start again from scratch, new account etc and to do it Live Streaming! yep I know utter madness. I can no longer build anything even slowly so its totally down to avoidance, stealth, cunning, natural camouflage and military techniques I learned over 45 years ago. Despite this I'm regularly in the top 10, frequently in the top 3, occasionally in the top 2 and rarely I win the Battle Royale. Now you may wonder how I can possibly get such high scores in survival when I can't do the most fundamental task needed for Fortnite ie Building Very Very Fast. Well I started last week and I got to Gold 3 and wanted to try a competition only to be told that as I was under 13 I needed parental guidance, a bit hard when your in your late 60's with both parents dead, so the account must have been hacked whilst I was away. Thus the restart. If you think your too old and don't play Fortnite or computer games as its 'for the kids' then please do yourself a favour and watch this video, if it doesn't make you laugh as I panic my way through the game, I'll be surprised, playing it hilarious and for this video i've even put numbered bookmarks in the video description so you can quickly and instantly skip to the funny bits start and end and the Finale was quite frankly insane, as I couldn't for the life of me figure out what the hell was going on.
I've change my epic to bushcampcodger #bushcampcodger and you can watch others in the series, or right from the start at video 1 : https://youtube.com/live/a_5D-CO6GeA seriously if your feeling down watching tis an old idiot desperately trying to dig himself out of ambushes and insane situations from fast re-acting youngsters and laughing at the outcomes will improve your mood. Like life, it's not to be repeated or take too seriously. I hope you like it and pop along if I message to say when I'm live. Please feel free to share with others message me to join a match if I'm available.

How To Loosen Maxi Cosi Car Child Seat Straps


Since making my  @fixed1t  video on the Maxi Cosi Childs Car Seat I've had a number of questions from people for a more detailed look at adjusting the straps as the child gets bigger or to use with a smaller child. If you just want to adjust the tightness of the straps this is the video. As always it's relatively simple once you know how and have a spare old toothbrush available in the car (you need it if you don't want to scratch, break or otherwise destroy your nails). Here's how I did it. If this video helps you can buy @fixed1t a coffee https://www.buymeacoffee.com/fixed1tfix4. Thanks Malcolm aka  @fixed1t

Thermal Camera Hedgehog Tracking


Having built the  @fixed1t  Hedgehog House https://youtu.be/KkqJnGNwcLc and the Hedgehog feeding station https://youtu.be/hIZQqTWwPO0 I need to do some Thermal Camera Hedgehog Tracking with my HikVision Thermal Camera (see details below) along with my Dual Lens Nightvision Train Cam as are fence is being replaced due to old age, very wet year and storm damage. As 'Edgy' is currently not living in the Hedgehog House but getting into the garden by some means I haven't found, I decide the best thing to do is Thermally Track him at a distance as if I get close he runs away or just curls into a ball. The problem is there is a huge pile of stuff and plants growing up and dumped by people against our back fence and I'm concerned if he's live there he may get cut or crushed by our fence builders. So here is the @fixed1t video of the first part of the hunt, in the pitch dark and in the garden. I did an Unboxing A iZeeker iG600 Dual Lens Day Night Vision Trail Camera https://youtu.be/ph0XmSEgAmA It appears not to be available after Black Friday but the Voopeak appears identical: https://amzn.to/46GFdqw I did an Unboxing of a Hikvision DS2TP21B6AVF/W Handheld Thermal Camera https://youtu.be/sOJfTeGIjsw I spotted on ebay with an unbelievable specification and price I got my Hikvision Thermal camera here: https://ebay.us/UwXvFH If this video helps please support the channel work by buying me a coffee https://www.buymeacoffee.com/fixed1tfix4 Please don't forget to subscribe to  @fixed1t

Dog Training To Stop Separation Anxiety


This follow up  @fixed1t  video explains the best method for Dog Training To Stop Separation Anxiety and it works by associating my leaving with a positive happy event ie a damn good treat to chew on. This works brilliantly every time, and occasional boarding dogs pick it up really quickly. Also surprising is how gently Skippy takes the chew treat from me (not his usual get it fast before it goes method) thereby showing how relaxed he is about me going and relaxed that I will be back. Sometimes he doesn't eat the chew straight away but waiting till we return, I suppose a type of hoarding behaviour r in case we a slow to return. I hope you like it, please subscribe.
