(1,984 characters)Next, we're going to be grabbing a set of cowbells, okay. These are different size wrenches, essentially, that fit into a lot of faucet setups, so I'm fixing to show you this particular one, if you have these inset ones, these are essentially a bunch of deep weld sockets, right, and they're just really for doing this type of work. Okay, so the one we're going to be using is actually going to be this one. You might have to go through it and find your size and once you do, then you'll know and once you get used to them, you know what it is. You can always use more cowbell. So this little thing just clips off you here, and now that I've had to pull this out, I was just thinking this will make a really good tour of you soon, so be on the lookout for that. So it also comes with a little handle bar, right, so this is just going to help you to get some torque on this thing. So we'll just find the size that we need, which is actually going to be this one right here. You can see sometimes they fit just a little loose, it's not going to be too loose, but it's going to work for you, and we will just take this, you just slide this in that slot. You could also use a wrench if you wanted to, you could use an adjustable jaw, you could use pliers, you're going to marinate that up, but you could use an adjustable jaw for this as well, and it would work really nice. But you can just take this, get this right in here, and that's going to help spin that off really easy. Sometimes if the stem is really long, you can see that that right there, sometimes that's actually going to hinder it, so you have to take this out and you're going to want to use an adjustable jaw on this, all right, then you can just go ahead, spin this off and pop it out. Okay, we'll be able to clean this all up, make it look pretty, we'll put all new gear on it, and we'll get it rolling. You can see right there. That washer is aed up, and this other washer is actually, did it fall down, yeah, broken.
