I love Ichiban Moto.
His cylinder boring vid is stellar!
Is use of CLR on a carb (aluminum) advisable?
I thought that stuff would etch it.

From the CLR website
What will CLR do to copper or aluminum?
CLR will take the finish off of aluminum and copper.
Aluminium isn't normally coated in auto use so I guess it's fine if you wash it off afterwards.
I'm quite impressed by both of those videos.
This is so cool. Super simple and basic concepts and all done on the cheap. I lol'd though when he got out his wife's tin. "She probably won't miss this." hahaha
Wife: "Where did my cake pan go?"
Husband: "I used it for my media tumbler. FOR SCIENCE!"
Wife: "Seriously?"
You know, I thought I was cheap.
I was wrong.
The dude is using a hand crank drill and a screw driver that might have been made by Mr Phillips himself.
Sorry I just don't think any of his videos are real. They are supposed to be funny.
The screwdriver vid

Basic principle of the cleaner/polisher seem sound. Id be willing to try it if I had a extra da sander.
The screwdriver one is a crock.
I love how he cuts everything with what looks like a pair of toenail scissors. Reminds me of Red Green a bit. The screwdriver one was obviously for laughs, but I wonder... the parts washer and media tumbler look plausable.
It took you guys this long to figure out that he's taking a piss?
