What they say

What other tools did you make yourself for this kind of work? Oh, let's see. I made a small carburetor. There are a few small holes in the O, it's not there. This is a small drill. And I made it so that it went into the hole , you know, with a short drill bit on the end. And then, of course, it's a saw. I had to saw small grooves. And, uh, I have a nozzle on this one. So it works pretty much the same way . This, uh, I can show you. This is so cool. See that groove? Yes. The groove is right there. You see, when you open it, fuel goes through it when you accelerate, and to cut through it, I needed a small saw for that carburetor. Hmm. So that's why I made it.
