  • Youre putting out some cool vids. I was thinking of trying carpentry, of some sorts, perhaps construction. I'm a "Tooler" at a Areospace company and I also took a course in Autobody repair and spent a couple years in that industry. The Autobody knowledge is very applicable to a "Tooler". As a tooler, you need to be a jack of all trades, to be successful.

    Keep up the good work.

  • Ok I could maybe get into building things and yeah let not have any bunny smears! ...Love the camera view with the steering wheel action.I'll keep watchin if you keep makin these vids!

  • You're a hard working Appleseed. A hard day's night is what they say. Working like a dog.

  • Serenity was here.... Peace

  • LMAO I think that's why they call it a skill saw :) what's up Ey long time no c,

    peace

  • Very interesting....thanks for letting us in. Ah, a man and his tools...have to agree with the wife, can be very sexy. Nice to see another side to the many faces. =-)

  • Great vid!

  • I protest any kind of enslavement of EMPLOYment. It is a PLOY to keep the masses oppressed! As for doing your own thing your own work, your own hours, that would be acceptable.

  • Physical labor is like therapy...i hear ya...

  • yorgathecroat yes therapy. Have yo ever seen my Practical skills video? I dont know what channel its on, honestly. It was about 3 months ago. ancient history.

  • I will look for this mysterious video....

  • Handy guys are the BEST! I don't mind working in an office, but it would be nicer if they'd let us work from home- then I could sit by the pool, while I work! LOL!

    But, I've always been a sucker for a handy guy! It's actually pretty good money, from what I know about construction/heavy equipment operators, here in FL.

    Hope you're having a super weekend! Hugs to you & the family! ...Teresa :)

  • Hello Theresa! I gotta contact you after last time we were abbreviated.

  • You know I will! :)

  • Dude, invest in a sawzall!!!!! It will save you time, money and aggravation. They are only $100 with a cord. Props to the manual labor. Owning your own business is the most rewarding thing I have done. Not just money wise either.

  • I know about the sawzall. I just have one of the battery-powered ones. Even though it comes in handy where you can't fit a circular saw, it still is limited. Such as for one of these slices I was making on a 15 foot run, right at the floor, horizontally. - it would have cut it at a 15 degree angle. NOT ACCEPTABLE. So I had to make a perforation cut with the drill. You know what I mean?

  • yes, sometimes you have to improvise to get the job done.

  • I also have an iron pipe I have to cut at the base so its flush with the concrete floor. I cut it with difficulty at about 3 inches high, using a hacksaw.

    Any ideas? Maybe a new sawzall with a sharp new metal cutting blade?

  • I would use a rotozip with a metal cutting blade, or a dremel with a metal cutoff blade for tight areas. The metal cutting sawzall blade works good too if you have enough room, it should attach to your cordless.

  • much respect for manual labor, most of my jobs up until my latest one required it and now that i think about there's still some of that. i've washed dishes, dry cleaned clothes, moved boxes of screws and sold newspaper subscriptions at some point, that one was mostly actually talking to people so that made it almost enjoyable. now i have just enough work to get by doing freelance PA bullshit for a production house. thats what an associates degree gets me, whatever.

  • Honey ....you're looking soooooo sexy! yes, this is my husband, and I'm very proud! great video baby! great work! love you-----tamashaylah

  • "This video gives you an idea why I can hardly put out more than 10 videos per week on my multiple channels."

    LOL! I know what U mean, I can harldy put 1 video every two weeks! Careful there Mr. President...

  • why you can hardly do 10 videos a week??? this kind of crap is why i can do about one video a week. altho i'm not in construction.  more like destruction.

  • I'm not int thw woods anymore. I have a desire for power tools. I'm careful with a chainsaw.

  • no you're not. i saw you build the hut you used to live in, you're a reckless beast!

  • I can relate to the hard labour being in construction myself. Drywall/metal framing is my main trade but you now it goes. Once you do one trade you might as well do them all, lol. I actually like the hard labor creativity, just can't stand the people in the indusrty. I've pretty much turned skills into just flipping houses and forget the 9-5or should I say 5-5, lol. It's nice to relax at the computer to exercise any other skills and creativiy thats left.

  • Sitting behind a desk sucks. But whatever, gotta pay the bills. What's your feeling on pressure-treated lumber?

  • thats when you only make ONE account!!!

  • Time goes a lot quicker on a building site than in offices, that's one good thing about it

  • a man who works with his hands and mind for a living should hold his head high...

  • I had a feeling you were in construction..i'm a plasterer, i have to make the walls straight after you've been at them :)

  • Whoa!  I'm a-skeeerd, real skeeerd watching you with powe tools :) naw ... I see you still have all your fingers :)

  • YEah i know how you feel. Glad I still got all my toes after that lumberjack work I used to do!

  • "Luckily I haven't hit any animals" Then they was a slight bumping noise. lol. Sorry. Just out of interest how did you get your first job in construction and what training did you have to do?

  • Ok, here now and live a nice comment. I guess you are happier now than working in an office!!

    Good day!!

  • Well, anyone who wears hearing protection when no one is making him do it gets my sub. I'm very happy to know you.

  • Looks like a nice day there! Kewl!

  • That's cool, I'm going to guess the car you're driving is that pink Camaro, it sounds purtty beefy.

  • Actually its a different one. And I gotta keep working on it... unless I go and pick up a motorcycle. Then I'll see you on the Arizona highways!

  • I'm holding you to that.

  • I do hard labour 8 hours, on my feet all day long, never sit down once....so this right here, the videos and stuff, this is my relaxation and entertainment and learning all rolled into one.

    And those headphones man, we HAVE to wear those ALL day for Health and Safety rules and regs...I tell you now, I friggin HATE them. They make my ears all sweaty and they make my safety glasses dig into my head. The job itself is okay though, gotta pay the bills right? :)

  • Thanks for the comment. I wasn't aware that you did that kind of work. Yeah, gotta pay the bills as they say. ;)

  • Yep, been doing it almost 18 years now, not with the same people, but basically the same thing. Oh and yeah, it is a horrible sensation running over roadkill, I hate that :(

  • I used to be safety. Hearing protection shouldn't do that to you, and no wonder you hate wearing it. I did this accidentally once, trying to save money for the taxpayer, bought protection that wasn't as expensive as something more comfortable. Everyone complained about the discomfort and I had buy something else for them almost immedately. My mistake. They deserve the best anyway. My bad.
