Start your long day with a fresh K-Cup of RRR premium blend coffee!
Our “Common Sense” brew of coffee is a medium roast (1/3 Java and 2/3 Brazil). It’s low acidity, full bodied, and has a kickin’ taste, and it just makes sense.* You might pick up on a caramel or chocolate taste with this one.
“Manic Morning” is our medium dark offering. (½ Java and1/2 Kenya AA). Balanced sweet and bold, and higher acidity. This is the brew for those who like the taste of coffee, without adding tons of sweetener or cream!

Thanks to Jesse for making the intro and graphic for us to enjoy!!




















I know im a bit late…
2 things…
1. The nut introduced contaminants. You already knew that when the inside started melting.
2. I heard of a trick to help with the rod not staring.
Tap the gunk off the end.
A couple of love taps.
Ray I don't know if anyone has mentioned it. You can get real thin welding rods 1/16th.
dont try and weld over or through the residual slag, get rid of that b4 next bead, and practice on scraps for a while
Always chip slag between welds or you are putting boogers on boogers
DWL, DID I GET IT? you're hilarious my guy, love ya Ray!
Should have stuck the new motor mount in there with the new mount on mount, and threw on a tapered bolt or just a normal bolt a welt towel on the new bushing and weld the new part while you look for the unobtainable
Um….. bench Grinder Safety tip of the Week. A bench grinder should be:
1. Fixed to a bench.
2. Water trough within easy reach.
3. Have tool rests fitted.
4. Use eye guards AND safety glasses.
5. Have the correct wheel fitted (green ones for carbide bits, Carborundum for MC Steel etc. Looks like aluminum on High Carbon here, but could be wrong.). I saw a Rolls Royce Mechanic once who trid to grind aluminum. It filled the wheel, which overheated and exploded. He wasn't wearing safety gear, but luckily the bits flew past him, narrowly missing his eyes.
Hope this helps
Great video li my s v always 👌👍
23:40 "grinder and paint make me the welder i aint"
OMG ! If I can make a suggestion, stick to what you do best. A great mechanic you are, a welder … not so much 😢. A flange nut would have been a better choice, and maybe even a larger diameter bolt ( given your? Welding skills) . The last thing you want is a ( questionable ) engine mount, especially since your truck is a heavy duty one. Love the content. Have your self a great day.
Clean the welding area and the ground area, You have way too much grime around to effect a good weld. Watch Cutting Edge Technologies for welding tips.
You can't even tell that you repaired the mount. Looks factory. 😊 lol, you did a better job than I could.
I can't watch this.
Ray, I could smell that burning molten nylon from here! Nasty! Not pretty, but you made it structurally sound. Better than new!
As an aerospace welder who builds F-35 parts, I would love to see you create a Ray's welding channel. Instant gold!
If the "weld" doesn't work, the paint will still hold that nut in place! 🤪
Let my try my first attempt at this sort of welding in confined quarters with a piece of unobtainium. What could possibly go wrong?
Ray, I love what you do but learn how to weld, you’re killing me smalls
Chinysium extractor?
OCD alert
WELD!! O.M.G😂
Hey Ray while you’re in there you might think abt replacing the heater hose disconnect fittings on heater core. I replace them all the time on my fleet and found out Dorman for the win on making steel connectors instead of plastic. Part# 800-409hp for 99-14 GM. Just thought I would reach out and tell you in car you didn’t already know. ✌️🇺🇸
Yeh stick isn't easy to pick up. The one thing I learned is don't touch the stick when it gets stuck. Especially when it becomes fluorescent… 😂 anyway good job Ray you're quickly becoming my favorite youtuber!
Ray! I have followed your videos now for 3 years and like them but when it comes to welding you must get a MIG with gas , not a stick welding machine and not the MIG you have used before without gas!
There is always night school.
5:24 – I'm so sorry – spontaneous laughter came out.
Ray, for the love of God, or whatever you believe in, take some welding classes. Love from the UK.
Having never been taught I tried stick welding and was terrible, I was easily able to burn through the metal. A couple of years later I came into a bit of money and treated myself to a gas capable Mig welder, I now almost never get any burn through and most of my welds do not look terrible, some can even be mistaken for good ones. Though I now have some 1.4mm stick rods so probably won’t burn through I will probably never bother with stick again, gas Mig is a joy and almost all the welds are good enough.
