A Huge THANK YOU and Answering YOUR Questions!

[@bruceinaus]

Hello everyone, do you all have audio now?

[@lukewesley5208]

I can hear ya loud and clear Bruce

[@mancogokartrider]

Yes sir!

[@billybobbych]

Yes; and it's great quality!

[@Hjerte_Verke]

Hey everyone, in the future limit your comments to legit questions for Bruce so to cut down on his workload (e.g. reading comments). If you have an "atta boy" for him, add it at the end of the question.

[@HDXFH]

Yeah

[@glengrant3884]

I vote Bruce as "U-tube- AUSTRAILIAN OF THE YEAR 2024"💥💯👍💪who's with me??

[@glengrant3884]

No.2 is MICK from BACKYARD SHED!

[@neonnblack]

No lack of talent coming from AUS. I'd have to vote for Curtis at cutting edge engineering.

[@art1muz13]

An even bigger YOU'RE WELCOME!!!!!!!!

[@knas5289]

I agree with liking the long format videos. If people have the attention span of a teenager or feel bored, there is always an option to fast forward or just go to tiktok. The long format is for us that want to wind down with a cup of coffee and just enjoy the work, the machines, the man and the beautiful scenery.

[@tonepilot]

Agree, I just pick up a guitar and a coffee and enjoy the videos.

[@mitchs2148]

agreed

[@BritishEngineer]

As a 17 yr old i find the short attention span of my own generation very boring, although the short attention span and ADHD pandemic is the least of my generation’s worries.

[@troelse.nrmlle4625]

There is no need to shorten the videos, just keep them long and real. Thank you for your great videos.

[@longrifle.]

Came to your channel via one your Detroit videos. Stayed because you cleaned behind the valve cover before you removed it. Subscribed because your meticulous and do things the right way. Anonymous, I dont blame you at all. Keep doing what your doing, doing a great job!t Edited to add: 1 vote for more Detroit's.

[@junkyarddog8277]

Man I was just half awake watching this vid, and boy I woke right up apon hearing that first question. Thanks Bruce, and I think a museum and a fresh coat of paint would be amazing.

[@scetchport]

Congrats Bruce, well done.

[@welshguyxxx]

Bruce I think I speak for the majority here, I love the long videos from you and love the old stories you tell us. Please keep this up for as long as your able 😄😁

[@banditgrizzy1955]

🤣🤣🤣 Don't feel bad, Bruce, about having old clothes, I still wear clothes that even you would more likely throw away. I have a shirt that is plumb full of holes and over 70 years old ( used to be my Dad's). The funny thing is I've sewed and patched it multiple times, but it still is comfy 👌🤣👍

[@criswagemansbophadoung8081]

So good to see older people making these video's. Your content and length of episodes are spot on. Keep going, perhaps more dozer repair video's would be great.

[@user-cq9kz5ig7y]

Your the real deal Bruce, genuine with no pretentiousness. Be interested in seeing you work on an old wheat harvester ready for museum. I grew up on a wheat sheep farm in western NSW until age 6 and never really understood how separating grain from chaff in the machine works until recently. Lots of people do videos on tractors, but not many on other equipment. Interested in ploughs, pumps, hydroelectric and even old farm windmills.

[@dianapurdy7755]

Hi Bruce, I love the way you avoided the "how old are you", question. You are looking really good. Its good to hear your stories they make your video's more interesting. I can't beleive you have 50 thousand subscribers already, and your camera man is amazing. Cheers

[@tonepilot]

Good plan for Wally, he belongs in a museum. Make it so that he can always run. Give little kids a thrill when he starts up.

[@jonathangriffin1120]

I always think of the next person because that next person could be ME.

[@benwinter2420]

Never seize is everyones friend especial wheel lug nuts

[@vlfreak]

i always try to teach people at work and in life this one.. Leave it how youd like to find it because the next guy might be YOU

[@corbindanylycha5246]

Keep the videos coming Bruce, love the stories you tell also 👍

[@LAP1050]

Bruce, enjoyed this Q&A video. Congratulations on earning 50.2K subscribers. Glad to be one amongst them. Living in a mostly throw away society, it's nice to see there are still knowlable people like you that want to repair things. Although I don't work on giants like you, if you pay attention you always pick up a work tip that you can add to the tool box. Thanks for sharing Lou from Miami, Florida, USA

[@joegatrill6634]

My grandma used to use all the same old phrases and sayings over here in England. I still recite them and often people have never heard them before. Cheers Bruce!

[@larrybolhuis1049]

Congrats on reaching 50,000! I've only been subscribed for a few months but I love your narration, your attention to detail, and how you deal with the many problems along the way. Keep up the great work, and even if you eventually do 'size down' a bit on what you work on, I expect it will still be very enjoyable to watch. And thank the hidden cameraman for his great shots!

[@metricstormtrooper]

Bruce, you deserve every subscription and more.

[@MartsGarage]

Congrats on the 50K Bruce. I like watching you working on the big stuff. It's such a contrast to what I do in my little garage here in suburban England. Take care and I look forward to the next one. Mart in England.

[@shaneellasdaicastrestorati3675]

Keep up the good work Bruce I absolutely enjoy it.

[@MattysWorkshop]

Gday Bruce, congratulations on passing 50k subscribers, well deserved, I certainly understand how it gets hard to respond to all the comments, it’s quite a big job filming editing and responding and if your not that good on a keyboard like me then it’s harder again, there was a great variety of questions Bruce and well answered, keep up the good work mate, cheers

[@user-vk4vd7vr5t]

You’re a good bloke Bruce, a lot have people have enjoyed your videos. Thanks mate!

[@jamesjohnson6924]

Hello Bruce! I truly enjoyed your questions and answers video, as well as the numerous vids you've put up in the past. I stumbled upon your channel probably 8 or nine months ago by happen-stance, and I'm truly grateful I did. I look forward to watching your new videos eagerly. Please keep up the good work sir...we'll all be watching.

[@dcskinx]

Thank you Bruce, congrats on the 50k subs will be 100k in no time. Me and my two boys love watching your videos, keep em' coming!

[@willshirley3830]

Another great video mate. Keep doing what you do Will

[@larrybolhuis1049]

I'm a computer guy, though old farm boy at heart. One of the things we say when working on computer code we like to say: "Leave the code better than you found it." Another thing we joke about is comments in the code, we say: "Remember the next person that needs to understand this code will appreciate these comments, especially when the next person is YOU!" LOL!

[@zonie70]

I'm glad you made this video Bruce . You answered so many questions about yourself that some folks wanted to know . I knew the first video of yours I watched , that you were going to be a hit. I believe you had about 6000 subscribers at that point. Thanks again mate , best wishes . Scott 🌵

[@mrfish1742]

Youre awesome Bruce! Thanks for the videos!

[@bx16v]

Well deserving of 50k and many, many multiples more. I look forward to the 500k subscriber video

[@jimrio3628]

Bruce, it is an absolute pleasure watching your videos. You are thorough in preparation work. With that preparation you are more likely to be successful than those who rush and dont check things. I'm friends with steve from Steve's place down under. BTW even if your videos were an hour and a half I would watch them in total. I'm Jim from Connecticut USA wishing you a great day and many more

[@chrisgee7631]

Well done on the 50k Bruce, your videos are great exactly how they are. Keep them coming mate 👍

[@mick00000000002]

Mate your worth watching. Your old school. And people learn. The correct way. God bless. 20.14 in

[@peterryan7340]

Thank you Bruce

[@mickmurray2977]

Good work Bruce cheers Mick

[@user-lh2ce9zd8u]

hello from central Indiana USA. your one hell of a old school mechanic! most of the population doesn't understand the machines from old. they dont know what it took to get through a day! I love the old stuff! personally if it has a computer you would be able to fix anything but the cpu, = worthless. the old stuff you can fix IF you have the knowledge! keep up the good work Bruce!

[@mostlypostie1]

Seeing you bring old equipment like bulldozers tractors and trucks back to life, is extremely satisfying to watch. Your attention to detail and the respect you show to these old machines is top-notch. Keep up the great work!

[@adriaanboogaard8571]

I really like the letter from your Grandma. I'm only 56 born late. We were raised by the same generation. Dad would be 105. His friends were a lot like you and would teach me like you teach others. It's a wonderful thing that you do making this program. Our grandparents are about the same generation. My first tractor I drove was a 1939 Ford N . I was 12. Keep up the great work.

[@stevenrawlinson5828]

Congratulations Bruce on 50,000 subscribers… I stumbled across your channel maybe 2 years ago and have fall in love with it .. constantly looking and waiting for a new upload I love you stile (probably spelt wrong) but you are one of me favourite you tube channels down to earth and real .. I grew up with my old dad showing me exactly what you do and how to do in as you do .. a little bit of care and time go’s along way to get things right.. Keep it up sir loving it …

[@akuiiratawhi8924]

Thanks Bruce

[@zimwasi]

You sir, are a legend. I grew up around Hay and Maude and you remind me of all the great people out there fixing up machinery using sheer tenacity and whatever it took to 'get 'er running again'. Great content!

[@johntucek5368]

Thanks Bruce. Love your work. Keep it up!

[@gmhard]

I wished I lived closer I’d be over all the time to help you out!! You’re a truly amazing human!!

[@chrislaf2011]

Thanks for your videos, Bruce! Your careful and meticulous approach is an inspiration! And your laid-back nature and story telling is great to watch. Restoration of these huge machines is something not many would take on, so thanks again!

[@billday762]

Hi Bruce. I was a Mechanic for 50 years and have a draw full of damaged watches and that was just from the first 20 years, then stoppped wering one. Dont need one now I.m retired and body clock tells me when its beer o,clock (very acurate the old body clock) Think I Seen Wally being transported on Bigginden RD near Maryborough late last year early this year guesed it was yours as i just watched the post on it a few week prior. Love your post Cheers.

[@bruceinaus]

[@stevesalvage1089]

Thanks Bruce , your videos are very interesting keep it up ,

[@renniks1975]

Hey Bruce, I love your videos, as I love seeing old machinery being repaired and brought back to life. Great listening to you answer the various questions. I just had a thought, that you could answer a few questions at the end of future videos - maybe an idea for the future? Hi from Ireland by the way!

[@reuben9213]

Ever since you started posting video's of your experience with machinery I have been an avid viewer of them . Thank you Bruce for your knowledge . To see someone who does things correctly makes me one very happy man .

[@ellisevilsizor4525]

Hey Bruce, I love to watch your videos, watching you get old equipment running after many many years of being parked, you're awesome and so are your videos

[@adamm6051]

Many thanks for all the content you provide us with, Bruce. Wish you all the best and looking forward to the new videos!

[@scetchport]

Been bogged 4wd all wheels down, resting on running boards. Pulled several shrubby trees over with the boat winch....made a metre in 3 hours. A lot of shovel work. SW QLD out on a station alone. Left ute bogged and hobble 6km back to base. Could well have happened 20km away at several bog holes i had to bash through, lucky. Had to flooded creek to wade 300 mtrs from my beer fridge. Was so good to rest. Drove it out 3 days later. 69 old was a good test.

[@liamdeerz]

Videos like this remind why I love being an Aussie. Bruce’s responses to these questions reminds me of a lot of the older fellas I’ve met in my life. Keep up the content Bruce.

[@MarcSmarrelli-ud8ek]

Hi Bruce, congratulations on your 50k👏👏👏 subscribers, Love seeing you working on older stuff,, reminds me of helping the old man working on various old trucks AEC's Leyland and Hino, Different world back then 🙏🙏🇮🇪 I wish I'd had some good advice like your grandma gave you, ❤

[@LukeLong-oi4uc]

I love the letter your grandma gave you. She was a very wise lady. My grandmother passed in 2002 when I was 33 and she was 93. She told me some of the very same things that yours told you. I sure miss her. Thank you for the content! Blessings from Oklahoma USA.

[@flowerstone]

I was taught by my dad that if you borrow anything always bring it back in better condition than when you got it. Chances are you can borrow it again when the time comes.

[@DragonsFireMetalWorx]

I like listening to your stories Bruce. You remind me of my Dad. He'd done a lot things over the years. Born in 42'. Had a story for so many situations. I'd sit there for hours as a little kid, then a teenager, and as a young man. thank you. I miss him and his stories.

[@davidjohnston8639]

No THANK YOU Bruce, i really enjoy your videos, you deserve all of these subscriptions and more.

[@thewrenchreviews9986]

Congratulations on 50K subscribers! Not certain what type of farming you are engaged in, but have you ever thought about designing and constructing your own specialized equipment? Would be an excellent series of videos about building your own stuff.

[@harls9287]

Congrats Bruce, highly deserved 50k and heading towards 500k. I couldn’t afford any thing else if i threw my dirty clothes away which is almost every day. Thanks and well done to Annon for capturing and producing it all. Keep the long vids nothing boring mate.

[@robertjospeh1097]

Great video Bruce. Your a class act!

[@dieseldavetrains8988]

Enjoyed that Bruce, surprised you included one of my comments. Maybe the camera operator is your son/daughter/wife or best mate. I was brought up with trucks and earthmoving equipment in the 60's and 70's, so I can see where you are coming from. Good value...

[@jockeshobbymeck]

Thank you for this Q&A. Have you thought about fixing some older cars on the channel? Do your own "will it start" on cars? /Sweden

[@jeffjenkins9529]

I myself always been kind of a Motörhead but not with diesels. Just getting into them. Thanks for the guidance, I’m learning a lot

[@gordonagent7037]

Good chin wag Bruce and love those old yearns. Love the way you went about that and I like the idea that Wally will end up in a museum of some type on loan. Hope you had a great Anzac Day old mate.

[@jimbobsjourney]

Hey Bruce, thank you for your videos. I watch all of them with my 5 and 3yo daughters! They love it. They won’t watch movies but they will watch your entire videos. I’d love to know what made you start your KZbin channel?

[@craigst1300]

Hey Bruce, maybe do an instructional video of a Detroit diesel that’s partially torn down, explaining the difference between the two-stroke diesel how it works versus four stroke. I’m sure they’d be lots of younger viewers that would appreciate the.Lesson.

[@mick00000000002]
