First time seeing this video. My son Matt is in the military and that’s his job. We watched it together & he was impressed with your tutorial. On the silly side is it you 😅flying all those drones in NJ

After using a blade last year and not being able to use a blade this year ,I am saying a blower is much better hands down. I got 4' in one weekend here a couple weeks ago. Plow wouldnt touch it. Blower saved the day . Im thinking about taking the plow off and going with a bucket and blower combo this year.

Best part of my day. Getting home after some hard work, shower. And watching DDD! 👍🇺🇸❤️

That is a long day, take care of yourself

Best looking driveway on KZbin!

Happy Birthday Mary!

I'm 32 and had a choice for auto, metal, or wood shop. I chose woodshop. I had tech ed and home-ec in middle school. It is sad to see that these types of classes aren't offered anymore as I learned a lot of life skills in those classes and kept learning by doing stuff with my Dad. Even though I'm a work from home desk jockey as a job, I still enjoy working on things in the garage and fixing things myself if I can. if you download the ecoflow app and connect to the battery, you can set the AC outlets to turn on by default when the ecoflow is powered up.

Yup, back in the 70’s I had carpentry… and welding… still remember and using in my home projects 😊

I had shop class in middle school, but by high school, the programs changed, you had to go to the vocational center in the district for shop class. It was pretty nice there, but only available to juniors and seniors.

Great video….

Awesome video!!! Love following you around while you get stuff done. And you brought back a lot of great memories of my High School shop class ❤.

Trades are undervalued. But these schools only sell going to college as the only way to success. Not true.

We need to pay for Christmas, more videos please.

Had wood shop and electrical back in high school with home ec in middle school. I graduated in 2011. No clue if they still do. Al the special stuff like auto mechanic was at the trade school.

Wouldn’t happen to have any more 318 skeletons laying around would ya? Looking for the one without the engine with good transmission and decent body basically everything but the engine. Got a diesel engine I wanna stick in one!

Censor LOL

I recommend to wrap your truck to an Oxford white, it’ll help your black paint to stay clean and looking like new, and it can be removed! Thanks for this information !

I had shop when in high school in the late 90s. Some of it is still there but mostly gone stem route.

Happy Birthday Mrs. Koch Alles gute zum Geburtstag, Frau Koch🎉 ❤❤❤

You mentioned in your review video AirPods. For videos and while driving a 18 wheeler I use Shokz opencomm2. The noise cancellation for videos is huge.

Eufy flood light camera combo as a suggestion to provide light and piece of mind. A have the solocam s340 that will follow people and vehicles not animals. I highly recommend it.

I'm surprised you don't get outdoor lights from your brother or someone he knows. Electrician that wired our dryer put a couple lights on bins and they're better than anything we've tried before

Yep! We had all the industrial arts . I took everyone I could. Loved every one of them. That was in the 80’s. Also had home ec. My kids also had some form. We are also in a rural area with lots of ag.

I like this style of content keep up the great work!! Always look forward to watching your videos!!!

just an fyi, you don't need a cab for a snowblower, ski goggles and a face mask are all that's necessary.

I graduated from high school in 1975. I had some wood shop and some metal shop. I wish I had taken more shop classes when I was young, because it would have helped me in my chosen trade, which I did not choose until a couple years after high school. Thanks again for the video.

from my own personal experience, blades are great for clearing a large area of snow quickly... as long as you have a place to pile it. By heavy snow #2, 3, 4, and so on, the snowblower worked better as I could fling the snow far out of the way.

A girl was not allowed to take shop classes but I became a union carpenter instead. 30 years of solid work, a good pension working in the Silicon Valley. Loved my job. The head of the school department wants all their students to go to college. That is a big mistake…

Didn't take any shop classes in school but learned woodworking from my Dad and was a toolmaker for 40 years so I try to diy whenever I can.

The firewood rack is cool and all, but I still feel like the IBC tote was the easier option. No straps, backing slowly across the road

I majored in wood in high school (all 4 years ). Our wood shop teacher was the varsity football coach and freshman basketball coach. So we didn’t do much “wood”. We watched a lot of film tho 😂

Shop class and mechanical drafting in 9th and 10th. ICT in 10th and 11th.

Way down here in Batesville in south east Indiana our school has built those programs back better than they ever were. It’s just in time for my son who will be a freshman next year! He’s very handy in a shop already so he’s going to really shine once he’s there.

I had shop class but unfortunately our teacher had a heart attack and died shortly after we started small engine repair. We made it through breakdown but we ended up having a substitute teacher that knew absolutely nothing about trades so we read about putting it back together. Absolutely useless as was reading about electrical as well.

Loved the day in the life video blog, Neil. I’ve always enjoyed the slice of life you provide, be it a glimpse of a cross country vacation, building a pond or a day at the Harlan Day fair. Keep it up, this is the good stuff that a 65 year old retired guys looks forward to every Sunday.

Can you share which lights you bought? We are in the market for our building. They looked awesome on the video!

Great video Neil. Enjoyed following along with your whole day. I am 12 years older than you but still have good memories of my high school days. Even though I was a math and science nut I loved going to our wood and metal shop. Some of my best memories are from those shop classes. I do not know if my old high school even offers those anymore. Thanks for taking us along on your day. Also, love the new outdoor lights!!

Let's jaz up the show by adding some livestock on your channel! Also, I think your dad would be one of my best friends if I lived nearby! Keep up the good work.

Neil, we had industrial arts in high school (West central Ohio). Between that and Vocational Agriculture it was what set me on my path to become a “shop teacher”. Ohio State changed their program over when I was in college to Technology Education but we still had a lot of industrial arts classes while I was still there. I’m so happy that your community still values Industrial Arts.

Again, do you own thing, but i woukd s rap the firewood rack for IBC totes for your firewood. Become a one man job to move and more efficient.

Zero six thirty ,o is a letter not a number FYI 😂

I graduated in 02 from a small town in Illinois, I had multiple shop classes. Metal work, wood work, and my favorite was drafting both by hand and CAD

Auto Shop, Metal Shop, and Wood Shop. in southern California(1979)

I just found your next project my friend. In the lot across the street, you need something to put all of the wood under. Your property is meticulous... Then there's that eye sore across the road. Of course you will need a new toy, I mean tool to build it. I'm thinking a saw mill 🤔

I graduated in 1994 From Jamaica High School in Sidell Il, we did have industrial arts. As far as I know the Consolidated High school still does, now its called Salt Fork High School.

I am 53 and in 1985 when I was in 9th grade my shop teacher was my dad’s shop teacher when he was in high school.

If it hadn’t been for industrial arts/wood shop/metal shop/drafting I’m not sure what my life would’ve been. It gave me such a great base. I ended up spending 22 years in the Navy, but all that I learned in those classes mechanically helped me with my career and made me very successful. I knew I was never going to be a doctor but when it came to mechanics, everything just seem to be easy. Not everyone needs a college degree although I did get an associates degree in supervisor management, which did help me through my career love your show, never been a farmer Came from a coal Miner family.

You may want to add a strap from the top of the rack to the roof so the wiggle can only go so far.

Yes I did. Look up Benson Tech in Portland Oregon.

I took wood working welding small engines and home ec in high school. Graduated in 2008. I ended up in logistics for a career path but I’m glad I still was able to take those classes when I was younger even if I didn’t pursue that as I got older
