My name is Bre. I took two years of small engine repair at the local college. When I left school, I fell into a wonderful job at a local small engine shop where I worked the counter for a couple years. In 2010 my husband and I opened up our own small engine shop in central Arkansas where I am able to work alongside my family and best friends. We see over 2,000 pieces of small engine equipment every year, and answer 1,000's of small engine questions. We specialize in brands such as Briggs and Stratton, Kohler, Echo and Shindaiwa, but work everyday on MANY other brands like Stihl, Husqvarna, Honda, Craftsman, Remington, Red Max, Troy Bilt, Scag, Bad Boy, Hustler, World Lawn, Poulan, Mantis, Etc.. Hopefully, my experience I share, will save you Time, Money and Frustration in the future!

[@ramonclements9879]

Your shop is a thing of beauty! I am impressed at how nothing looks out of place--even the piano looks good there. My only problem with it is that you are about 1000 miles away from me rather than around the corner. Thanks for taking us behind the curtain of your functioning business. Great video, as always.

[@mikeremski2102]

"They say" pianos are very good for testing repaired chainsaws. the different materials create different loads, like hitting a knot or nail.

[@danabelcher9891]

Nice to see your shop doing well!! I love to see small buisnesses doing well conidering all that is out there these days are big box stores. Hope you have a prosperous 2023!!

[@alexandercopeland2849]

Boxes stores usually sale 10%-15% more then an actually authorized dealer.

[@dans_Learning_Curve]

Briefly worked at an auto parts store. A female was the specialist in certain parts. She'd get the phone passed back to her when a caller would ask for "one of the guys"! LoL 🤣😆

[@TheWabbit]

My aunt worked at a Chevy dealer in the 60s and 70s. She had almost a photographic memory of the parts and applications. when guys would come in and get talking to one of the parts guys they used to say we're more of a gopher and fill-in for when she's busy or gone. If the guy insisted she would listen and go get the part, put it on the desk before the parts guy could finish looking it up. By the mid 70s she had guys who would only deal with her.

[@jimgrady7458]

"We're a brothel on the weekend"....the hustle is real 😁

[@oldbowsaw9001]

Pokey tools-real funny-keep up the good videos--old cat mechanic. Well done lady-hats off to you for running a honest reliable lawn and garden/small engine repair business. I know machinery and the public!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@OpenAirAdventure]

You're like a breath of fresh air Bre, I support the shops in our area, best service and knowledgeable one on one. Box stores suck. The piano in the new shop? Definitely, and have your talented son play for customers. Love your sense of humor too.

[@bartwright430]

You never fail to educate, impress, and make me smile. Thank you for doing what you do.

[@roberthoffman4713]

Love project farm too. Your advice came in handy the other day. My neighbor was trying to start his saw and it wouldn't pop off. I saw a can of tru fuel. I said that might be the problem and of course, I just bought it and it was recommended, bla bla bla. I got my 2 cycle fuel and convinced him to dump out his fuel. We refilled it, and several pulls later his saw was running fine. I thought, ok he is good to go. 30 minutes later his saw is not running. He said it ran fine and I ran it out of fuel and now it will not start. I asked did you get some ethanol free fuel and mix up some new fuel? He said no. I thought once it was running, I could put the tru fuel in and it would run. I looked at him and said how's that working for you. I think it finally sank in. He had to try and return the crap and buy 2 cycle oil, then go to the gas station that has ethanol free fuel and mix up a can. Later that day he said that even though the price of ethanol free gas is about $.60 a gal. more than the other gas. It turned out to be much cheaper than the can fuel. I said that depending on how much 2 cycle he uses, that every 3 months or so he should mix up fresh 2 cycle and whatever is left over from his last batch can be mixed in with his generator/lawnmower gas and used up that way. He seemed to be on board with that. I guess time will tell.

[@natecampbell4708]

Please tell your son he greatly deserves kudos for his piano playing! That. was. AWESOME. The piece he played is a difficult one to play right, & he just plain ACED it. Thanks for sharing it w/us!

[@steveb7310]

The shop always looks so great stocked up with new stuff.

[@fergusonto-2032]

My wife taught piano for many years , your son is amazing.

[@michaellong8799]

Your son plays piano very good! I have five grown children, four of which learned piano. The two youngest did it on their own using KZbin and they are the better players.

[@REDMAN298]

I`m impressed girl! Y`all aint lettin` any moss growin` under YOUR toes.

[@richardtruesdell8289]

Your son is excellent for his age! Can't wait to his progress as he grows up. Beautiful shop by the way.

[@fatherofmimes4236]

Love It!! Nice layout. My wife and I owned and operated a paintball exclusive store, the spring start up was always exciting! Your son playing the keyboard was wonderful. Thanks for the tour and wishing y'all a happy and prosperous 2023!

[@craigdonnelly2290]

I sure miss my independent Echo dealer. Stihl offered him a better deal if he dumped them 😢 Echo was always our longest running least problems easiest repair products. I only buy from independent dealers. Good Luck 🍀 this coming season.

[@EastCoastWingNuts]

Thanks for the tour , you have a lot of stuff there. What I really want to say is " Your a great speaker. Clear no studding or fumbling. No AR, AR Um . I enjoy all you vids. Pete from Mass.

[@davidphillips2259]

A shop that’s going forward’s with a lovely shop owner xxx😂😂👍🏻😂

[@dennislamers986]

Your son has a gift for sure. Good looking shop.

[@ianhughes7805]

What a lovely shop you deserve to do well and your customers obviously love the service you provide. Your son has great talent too

[@scottnunya1]

I've always had good experiences at a shop/ store with a cat sleeping on the counter.

[@haroldrogers8711]

Love the layout in your shop, makes it a whole lot easier to see what you have.

[@Matt_justlikethat]

Like Xmas all the products that weren’t available earlier. Very nice shop, really welcoming!!👍👌

[@jeffbecker9809]

I love your joke about being a Brothel on the Weekend. That's pretty good.

[@rcs3030]

The BEST was your son playing the piano. I envy the fellow for learning. Believe me he will thank you mom for enabling him to learn. I can already tell that he is going to have a bright future. Especially with a wonderful Mom like you. Hang in there Dad, we know how proud you are too !

[@markfinan1544]

Your son is very talented!

[@scarsstitches6387]

I wish you'd have ordered spring earlier. It's forecast to be -10° here in couple of days ! Lol

[@sonnyblazer5504]

Thank you! Your son, needs to keep at the piano (AND other instruments too) since no one has to play just ONE! He sounds good and that can reward him going forward! So, the best to you & your family!

[@mikejerrett7354]

Hahaha brothel on the weekend 😆 ,your shop looks impressive nice and organized. Your son is very talented as well 👏 👌

[@billfleming8281]

We have a small hometown dealer about a mile from my house , I buy everything I need from them as I love to support small business and they are really nice folks . They turned me on to Echo , but you are the one who sold me on the fact I made the right decision. These guys have been great , but if you were anywhere near me ( and not 1500 miles away like I am ) , I’d be with you ! Love all you do for us . Thank you Bre ! I hope you have an amazing year

[@MikeSmith-fe3ng]

I like your shop layout. The best I can do on a piano is the Jaws theme, hahaha. Congrats to your son. He has serious talent and hope he stays with it. He might get a record deal.

[@RANGUIDRY]

Thank you for the "BEHIND THE SCENES" shop tour. I just love all that beautiful new equipment.

[@davidr6585]

Now that is a proper parts counter... Stools for customers! 30-40 year ago, you didn't walk into a shop like this or automotive, what they didn't have a stool to sit on while they went and got your part.

[@Dirty.Engines]

Being a small engine tech myself i find your videos super fun!

[@freeplayfrank7736]

Your husband plays guitar, your son is a concert pianist, and you fix stuff. Great combination. Thanks for the shop tour, I enjoyed it.

[@billfleming8281]

Your son is a very talented pianist !

[@USbilbo1966]

Your son plays the piano very well.

[@hosocat1410]

It's wonderful to have a musical gift. Hope he keeps at it.

[@corruptduboiscountyindiana5058]

dang your kid is a master on that piano

[@GuysPlayingWithTools]

Now we need to get everybody in Texas over there to buy new equipment... and sell me their old stuff 👍

[@mikhailkalashnikov4599]

I think I'd like to hang out in there and drink coffee with you folks!

[@1rosalee]

Wow, and your son is very talented! Blessings on your business!

[@billygarner8318]

Your son was great! One of my favorite piano pieces too!

[@michaelktm6061]

I love your channel and content even when I disagree with some of your diagnosis or repair procedures.I find it especially heartwarming to know that you are the MOM of such an accomplished young man. We need more MOM's like you today!

[@kevinhitt719]

Very nice shop, every one needs a Pandoras box mine is my main tool box. It's good to know classical music won't die with the next generation tell you're boy keep up the good work

[@t-rex558]

You know putting the "Do Not Open" on the recipe box just says "Open Me!" 😁

[@beerbottlebaby]

You need to turn the fridge into a kegerator, that way folks can come into the shop and have a few cold ones and watch you do your thing. I'm sure someone would start playing the piano and a good time would be had by all. Hell ya! LOL

[@bertgrau3934]

That's a very nice looking shop. Well stocked, with knowledgeable folks.

[@tedbudzilek6113]

Thanks for letting me see inside your drawers. Not everyone will let me...even if I ask nice.

[@jerryforeman4543]

Your son is very talented! Nice shop!

[@phyllismacevicius8821]

I enjoyed the video! Your boy is a wonderful pianist! I am waiting on my shop Lawncare order. I understand the excitement when all the shiny new units arrive!

[@marilynm8812]

Beautiful playing by your son.😁

[@michaelmaker8169]

Your son plays brilliantly 👍

[@billboertlein4121]

Eye Candy 😍 Shop looking fantastic.

[@m3horn]

Your son play's a mean piano 👍👍

[@pbr549]

Frankly Sthil is always the way to go. I buy mine in a small hardware store that has a section with all of the equipment. Down stairs they keep the inventory boxed up and setup as they need. My neighbor who has mowed my lawn since 2006 had an Echo that failed I determined it was not economical to repair. I found it interesting you can buy Echo equipment new on Amazon. Two days later I had him running with Truefuel. Echo is simply an average brand. I love my neighbor.

[@mushthatzme]

Lovely 😍 I am.also an echo dealer here in the 🇬🇧 UK. 👍👊😎

[@davidhuffine5084]

I lke good piano music . Your son is very good . Thank you for sharing his music wth us .

[@daniellocke9534]

Love the music!Sounds like the Third Man theme!

[@kylesavin6476]

Wow the shop is awesome chickanic

[@finfan1009]

That's awesome stuff. Literally. Especially nice to see something besides Stil

[@kenthammarstrom8255]

you got a nice shop👍. the young man knows how to play.🤩

[@gillgetter3004]

I have a upright piano my kids played. Their gone so I listed it, you move it it’s yours!!!

[@barryhunt5357]

Very Impressive, I hope you and the hubby have a great year, prices on everything have gone up, part of life, at least you received your order.

[@mrj-charles6383]

I bought a refrigerator five years ago to replace one I thought was going to give up on me. That one’s still working so now I have two refrigerators in my kitchen.

[@todddewell6314]

Thanks for the behind the scene look. Very cool!

[@182QKFTW]

Ludwig van Beethoven over there...I'm impressed!

[@pyrog.c.c89]

Your shop lookes Awesome. Good job Bre.

[@HOLLESjr]

[@lannydecamp7460]

Thanks for sharing

[@marksullivan57]

It’s nice to see fully stocked shelves again. And you’re son was amazing on the piano.

[@mikehamilton3833]

Great store. You have a very nicely displayed store. Love Echo products.

[@tomsommer54]

You are funny. I really appreciate your humor. I’m Tom in Northwest Arkansas. 73’s

[@JohannZ100]

I have had my echo pas225 since 2018 all I have done to it was replace spark plugs clean spark arrestor with a torch and adjust the carburetor really the only repair I did was replace the speed feed. Head I have ran a blade and a polesaw best trimmer I have ever used.

[@GaryT1952]

This was great B...love the shop tour...hard to believe you have a 13 yo...so talented 🎶

[@michaelbradford4444]

After viewing your well made and entertaining video I went back and listened closely to your son playing the piano and your right , he is good ! Hopefully he stays with it, the world is always in need of music!

[@tonywestvirginia]

Nice shop! And the boy can play!

[@tbonky]

Impressive! Echo is a good thing going! Still rocking the Red Armor in my old Stihl 032AV! Starts easy

[@timkaldahl]

The 032 AV was an awesome saw. I bucked up over a 100 cord of wood with one as a teenager.

[@MrCelticatheart]

That coffee cup rocks! I have a cup that says "Mr. Personality" lol. Great video as usual Bree.

[@mjvaquatics2626]

Nice looking shop! Btw, those piano lessons paid off!!!

[@Kivavitch]

Keep up the playing, enjoyed the short bit.

[@yhird]

The shop looks great Chickanic. Thanks for the awesome tour. Cheers.

[@mikecook2714]

Now thats6an Awesome shop !!! And so are you !

[@deancarder5829]

Beautiful shop. Great video. Thanks for sharing. Enjoyed the piano music also.

[@davidjackman5773]

I have a son just like yours....my baby....only 53 years old. But he has been playing music since the 5th grade; anything! Horns, piano, guitar...just about anything he can pick up or walk up to. Me and the other two kids can barely play the radio.

[@brockbaker3able]

Dedicated Echo fan. Very glad I found your Channel. Enjoy the content. Thank you !

[@oilhammer04]

Thanks for the tour, and for all the helpful videos.

[@stillmanparker3065]

You are doing exactly what I would like to do when I retire. Have my own shop to work on lawn mowers but not full time. Just when the fish aren't biting or need a break from golfing. Glad you got restocked and r ready for spring which means more videos! Ps everybody needs a Toby in the shop. Lol

[@davidkettell6236]

your son has a great musical future ahead of him.

[@michaelweatherhead9470]

Thanks for the video Bre take care of yourself and family ❤️❤️❤️👍.

[@edwardkirkland686]

I wish your shop was in my town 👍 love the videos!

[@UnacceptableViews]

wow your son is super talented on that piano!. i wish i woulda learned piano.. it was my dream as a kid

[@jamesrosa6568]

Fun fact, the guy on the cover of echo’s magazine is a friend of mine. Casey Selner from Wisconsin, he’s also on KZbin as Tr33climber (selner tree and shrub) and has a gear company called Arbsession!!

[@cycleguy666]

Finally get to see the front of the shop and your wonderful showroom!! Nice place!! And as a bonus we get to see in your drawers!! Woohoo!! I buy harbor freight goodies on sale too to stock up on everyday use items and drawer organizers!! Good stuff!!

[@terrydoo4055]

Sell me on a echo saw. Mainly home trimming and light farm work. I go to my local echo dealer and just get confused on what I need and seems like the sales person just tries to up sale me to the most expensive saws.

[@kevinking4371]

I just watched this episode. Our Daughter worked for our local hardware store/Stihl dealer. It took her quite a bit of time to overcome the "talj to the man" people. One person in particular NEEDED to talk to the man. After way too much time he called her over and she had the part for the customer in no time. I enjoy your videos and all you tips for repairing equipment.

[@jamesself2409]

Very nice, your son is very talent.

[@myiagreeaccount8307]

Love you, your shop and your drawers!

[@andrewstrakos3568]

Wow your son is very talented
