  • use a car engan instead of that what 3 horse power engan. and your'll be a true redneck

  • @MvYTx

    Coming from a true redneck.

  • What a great idea. I think I like my idea better. Bring out the snow blower and aim it at the neighbors yard.

  • you seriously need to patent and sell this.

  • This is how to clean up after the leafpocalypse of '11

  • Fuck the Cyclone rake for $1000, I'm building one of these!

  • Very nicce!

  • Does it work with grass?

  • that's the darndest thing...my dad would love it!

  • LIKE A BOSS

  • Now run the Lawnmower over the big pile of leaves, that oughter be fun

  • no dislikess,where have all the trolls gone? new beever or ms black's video?

  • Clever shit! Good on you mate! In my language they say:

    "The need is a mother of inventions!"

  • I want one

  • Imagine trying to fight those leaves without such a machine!

  • Thats fantastic!

  • i think this art of cleaning your garden isnt the best.

    you kill small insects and even smaller insects.

    in the end of it the quality of your soil will go down.

    sry for my bad english, i hope you will inform your self.

  • get dust-mask for unloading. :)

  • @baloneyjazz

    fine dust is unhealthy!

    so wear a god damn dustmaks! :-))

  • As seen on ThereIFixedIt - redneck repairs

  • Props!

  • Like a BAWS

  • I meant cleaning ofc.

  • Call them lazy americans but this is the best idea for leaf remove ever!!!

  • I note that you mention in the page mentioned that the tip speed is 40m/s, 144km/h.

    It's 14"*pi*(3500/60)/s, or 65m/s, 234km/h, 144MPH.

    Pesky imperial/metric units! :)

    Over 2.5* the energy of the lower speed.

    

  • @queazocotal nerd alert! lol jk man

  • The blower would be more effective if the blades were angled towards the rotation direction?

  • that's an epic way to clean ones yard

  • It also compresses the leaves. Love it.

  • that..is..so..cool...ITS BETTER THEN A LAWNCUTTER!

  • @augustcool97 THAN

  • But will it blend?

  • SMART

  • Nice, comes in handy with that big yard. I would use a dust mask.

  • Dear Santa!

    I want you to steal this for me!

    Yours sincerely, Rasmus.

  • Fucking smart!

  • awesome !

  • Sweet Jesus, this thing is awesome !

  • soo.... does he do it because he doesnt like leaves on his lawn? or because he uses the leaves for something? what would he use the leaves for?

  • @wvb93 well since leaves kill grass, i'm assuming he does it lawn health/aesthetic reasons. the leaves could be used as composting/fertilizer or as mulch. if he has green houses it could be used in there. i've heard of some nurseries using compost piles to heat their green houses in the winter

  • @maxdecphoenix interesting points. i never realized the leaves would kill the grass, by blocking the sunlight i assume.

  • @wvb93 it's that, but not entirely. grass tips are actually very resistant to damage, it's more the roots that are the weak part. as the leaves break into smaller peices they start to form matted up sheets that suffocate the grass roots of air and water. (even grass roots need oxygen). it's why "paths" form in grass after being walked on excessively. the loose top soil becomes so compacted that voids holding oxygen and water are collapsed and starve the root.

  • @maxdecphoenix ALL HAIL LEAF KING! :D haha thanks for the info :)

  • that's a great invention. If he made a small chute in the door, after bulk removal the compression would allow him to blow the remainder completely clean.

  • was the PTO on for this or was it just pure suction picking up the leaves?

  • Very Awesome! (^_^)b

  • I was surprised at how effective this machine was.

  • i only watched this 'cos i thought it was a trailer for a movie called 'Leaf Vacuum'.

  • This was really great. I can see you doing a channel of other people's home built machines!

  • I'm curious about the impeller design.

  • Did you notice the URL at the end of the video?

  • @Matthiaswandel Me? Notice the obvious? 8P

    I'm embarrassed. Thank you for your videos.

  • Damn it really works, I was pretty sceptic :P

  • I look foreward to going to the cinema to watch "Leaf Vacum", because I like the trailer.

  • Are you doing anything with the leaves? You have a good start on some compost.

  • Wow, What a great idea. This dude can make some good money mass producing them lol

  • John Lennon? You're alive?!

  • The trees are still green here in Oregon

  • It's John Lennon on a lawnmower!!

  • I believe this embodies the phrase "Work smarter, not harder!".

  • @BlackJavaBean That, or necessity is the mother of all invention.

  • lol leaf smoke don't breathe this

  • @chubeviewer I'm not debating that you shouldn't, but I'm curious... why not?

  • @chubeviewer YES, It blends!

  • Nature is so dumb throwing those leaves on the ground!

    Scrapping all the soil, year after year after year!

    Good thing we invent machines like this : running on oil and preventing the earth to kill itself. I admire human beings : they're so courageous!

  • Very clever but still uses fuel.

  • Clealing the yard! - Like A Boss

  • @RoShAnOWNEDyou

    HELL YEAH!

  • he could make serious money with this thing!

  • @jewbybrother579 It already exists...

  • @WeAreTwoDoorsDown no i mean going out and using it for people. not selling the idea

  • Nice video, Matthias. I wish my yard was a bit flatter and had a fewer trees so I could use something like that. Too many sharp turns and slope in the yard to use a rider.

  • I used to run my mower and chop them up... then leave as mulch over the winter... I like his idea of collection and composting. Very nice.

  • @askjerry well thats the right thing to do if u want a green lown in the summer

  • thats cool

  • HAHAHA :D

    I want one XD

  • looks really awesome

  • Aww I wanted to see him jump in there.

  • Neato! I hope he wears ear protection!

  • Nice work, I would make something as well if I had that many leaves

  • From someone living in New England, this is AMAZING!!!

  • Wow, it works perfectly!

  • do you compost the leaves once you collect them all?

  • I must admit. That was pretty cool.

  • Send him over to my place this week.

  • Very inventive :D
