As an Ex Pro Sound and Audio Engineer who has had a couple of decades of experience in live events and pretty much all manner of media production all I can say is that it's all the little things that this channel gets right that lifts it well above the pack. Not only is Kurtis a true master of his craft but Karen's videography, editing and production prowess would be right at home in productions worth 100x what this channel sees.

[@big_ute]

Dude, yalls channel has helped me in spades at the shop with ideas and processes for different jobs. Granted i had to modify a few things to some of your techniques to make what I had goin on work but overall I cant thank you enough for making vids like this for other fabricators out there like myself. Im slowly but surely building the weld shop at work from scratch to eventually be able to manufacture parts for our customers like you do. Eventually what I want to see my section of the shop do is be able to make whatever the hell the customer needs and not have to order it out of state and wait for months for the parts to show up like we and several other heavy equipment shops do now. When we are able to do that Im 100% sure those other companies will be contracting US to make parts for them as well as us taking care of our customer base. Might take 5 or 7 yrs to do that but im willing to wait and see what the fruits of my shops labor will come to bear.

[@schwuzi]

When you got your processes down and know your business I'd recommend going solo and doing your own thing.

10:06 I envy your skill with that torch; I can't imagine how many hours of use it has taken to get that good. I also had to remember the only reason you were using a torch instead of a plasma cutter was probably because of the "Tax" on electrical equipment in the form of "Safety Inspections". For those that don't know, Australia requires testing and tagging electrical equipment and the numbers I did find(South Australia instead of Queensland) for the cost, put it between two and three thousand dollars per piece of equipment. Kurtis mentions those inspections as one of the reasons he uses so many Air Tools in his Q&A from December, 20222.
