I like bald guy. Feels like an oldschool mechanic that wouldn't take advantage of you and do it the right way every time.

[spaceracer]

I like how the tire requires a tube when it's square but not after it's "repaired."

[woodworkerroyer]

As someone who has seen a lot of "messing with the new guy" videos. NEVER do anything when you see the other guys standing on the other side of the shop. Especially if they have their phones out.

[mitchelldavidson]

love what the one mechanic said "if your not going to do it right dont do it at all"

[cracklecracklebaybay]

I'd watch a series of videos with the Bald Mechanic teaching Nolan things. 😆

Nolan has gotten SOOOO much more comfortable on camera lately, and him and that dude are great together.

James' monologue at the end was so heartfelt - you can tell he's holding back tears of joy. Congrats, donut team :)

[AmberKelly]

Can you imagine getting in a wreck with the person that fixed their car with bricks and cement lol

[SwapPartLLC]

Can we just take a moment to appreciate how sharp that potato peeler was? I need one like that for potatoes.

Jeremiah is a literal twin of my older brother, they look so identical its insane, their demeanors and humor are even the same. I've showed my mom some of the videos to see her reaction and she was blown away and it was always fun watching your videos just for that sake. Unfortunately my brother passed away two days ago at the age of 35 from a drug overdose and now your videos will be somewhat of a comfort going forward in life, Love you Dan.

i remember donut being at 400k subscribers and always thought they deserved more. now they grew so much and i cant be any more proud

[Prettyboyskullkid]

As someone who works at a discount tire, that one about them shaving tires really killed me

[dperreno]

"How have we never thought of this?" (using plastic cup to remove oil filter) I love how you guys are willing to give props to the actual good ideas. :-)

[akhilkommuru]

donut is one of the couple channels where I resist the urge to watch the videos immediately and download them just so I can enjoy them when eating

[sauloleary]

I remember watching the old Donut vids in year 7 science and im now graduating and doing my first year apprenticeship in light vehicle tech. Nuts to see the development of the channel happen.

[latrace]

The expert mechanics you paneled for this were all really great and brought their unique perspectives to the table. Excellent vid as per usual, Donut!

[DeadSexyAdamCheney]

I've never seen anyone put a belt on like that. That shit is scary. Growing up on a farm my dad was crazy safe and I am the same way now teaching my kids.

[missJohnWick]

Congratulations on Seven Million and Also can't wait until the next series on Forza Horizon 5 because Donut Media has their own story in

Using co2 or refrigerate to shrink those sleeves will allow you to just drop them in. The rule of thumb for a interference fit is 0.001" per inch of diameter of the sleeve. So if you have a 4in od sleeve the hole is going to be 3.996. Freezing the sleeve with a sub 200° refrigerate will easily shrink a couple thou smaller allowing those sleeves to almost fall in. I use liquid nitrogen to shrink bronze bushings and oil lite bearings when repairing industrial machinery

Also for oil filter and fuel filter replacements on boats, we use thick ziploc bags to remove the filters. Keeps it clean and you then have a bag you can close and keep the filter in to dispose of.

I lost a middle fingernail trying that belt hack. DON'T!
