[@Baileyriffs]

I never had a dad to show me how to grill so even still if I’m unsure of stuff I’m always looking stuff up. I could’ve saved quite a few burgers from being meat balls if i knew grill basics in the beginning.

[@Janon48]

It feels weird watching this as a 30 year old man but my dad wasn’t around so it is what it is I guess. Thanks for making these videos

[@Demetrius416]

Me too as a 25 year old man.

[@ritaandring6351]

Just know you’re not alone

[@AnnaWoods]

Do I need to know how to use a pocket wrench set? Probably not. Will I watch this entire video with rapt attention? *_Absolutely._*

[@DamienDarksideBlog]

Do you NEED to? No. Should you know? Yes! For instance, growing up I watched and saw a bunch of girls put their hair up before playing basketball (sports family). So I always had shorter hair, don't have a use for knowing how to do a ponytail. COVID-19 comes along (I'm 30) and BAM! my hair is so long I have to have it in a ponytail. Easy peasy just went out for some hairties and kinda suprised myself at how fast a half-decent one turned out. All because I paid attention and had a rudimentary idea of how to do a ponytail. So one day you're sitting on your own porch. If you don't have one, maybe you will have one. I never thought I'd have one but I got a nice apartment porch with ACTUAL FURNITURE. Well you're bringing out an extra chair because your friend is coming over when you notice that the bolt holding the steel frame is coming loose! Oh. No problem, just got to the closet where you (or whoever you are with) keep tohe tools. Five minutes later* your chair is perfectly fine and you both can enjoy your patio. No need to bring a mismatched chair or a bulky chair out, or not have lunch on the sunny patio today. Small, tiny situations where you knowing how to use a tool can fix it right away. Eventually something happens like your living room fan spins slowly. Instead of throwing it out, you just grab some screwdrivers (ice trays are amazing to hold screws) and take the fan apart to the motor, realize it was clogged with hair and dust, put it all back together and your fan is working perfectly. That was last week for me, saved a $30 fan purchase. Long message I know but EDUCATION IS NEVER WASTED :D *(because you forgot to put the socket back last time properly you had to search for it))

You’re awesome

Hi Leo, Your story sounds pretty similar to mine, although I had older siblings as well. Thanks for the kind words and encouragement. You sound like a fine young man. When you get the opportunity to have a family of your own, please determine to do things differently than your dad did. You got this! Love, Rob

Hi Dad! How do I sand and refinish/stain a wooden piece of furniture? Love you and everything you’re doing for us dadless kids out here! 🥰

[@vishitetali2770]

if you can't wait for his response find a woodworking or hobby channel like "i like to make stuff" and see how they do it. It can depend on how the wood was originally finished.

As a 30 yr old who had loving parents but weren't very handy never taught me anything with tools so I do appreciate this.

[@ericstanback3756]

I’m right there with you. Came here to learn how to use the tools.

[@veramae4098]

I'm 71 and remember when there were no "ratchetting" tools. To tighten or unscrew something you had to physically reapply the wrench. Invented by J. J. Richardson. Or J.P. Johanssen depending on source! That's a GREAT MOMENT IN HISTORY.

[@lilyphelen8099]

Father's day is this Sunday. Gotta do something special.

[@Fanofcompetition420]

This saved me and oddly made me sad, yet happy to have found you. From a fatherless 27 year old, thank you for this.

Having someone online who shows care and attention in such a deliberate way is a blessing. Great video as always! Very thorough! Love you dad

Thank you because I was crying and wanted to give up but your video kept me going :) You are heaven sent.

[@ckee8437]

Ugh, there is a lever! I have never been able to figure out why my ratchet doesn't seem to work. Seems like I should have figured that one out. Thanks Dad!

[@Samantha-hg2lj]

24 yr old single mama here lost my dad when I was a toddler, never really had a father figure. And my daughter’s dad & I had an ugly split and he doesn’t seem to wanna help me unless he benefits in some way. Much less when I need help with something mechanical. I wasn’t listening to your video at first bc I was struggling and fighting back tears over not being able to figure out this dang reversible ratchet. Ready to toss is in the garbage and take my car to a mechanic. But your voice was calming enough to get me to gather myself enough to listen and figure it out. I was ready to start sobbing I was sure it would’ve made me feel a lot better but after finally figuring it out I can’t describe what I’m feeling atm. Beyond relieved is definitely one way to describe it. All this trouble just to change a low beam on a terribly engineered car. Thank you so much for this! ❤️

[@stephanieharris3634]

SAME!! I also came here to learn how to use a socket wrench. I was able to change the low beam bulb but now can't put the coolant reserve tank back in it's slot, so now I gotta pull out the stinking battery!! (2006 Honda Civic)

No monetization.... this man really holds honor to his name.. thank you dad

[@reniamalia6340]

Hey, rob, I hope you're in good health, because I'm healthy here, and watching your youtube of losing my dad when I was young makes me not even realize how much tears I can't see myself, because I left my dad when I was young. It's hard to live an unprotected life called the first hero of all girls, I've lived with my mother through life's hardships, my school all through my grandfather he was my great grandfather in the world It was smashed to pieces, and now I'm an adult I make a living for myself and my mom, but it's still hard because we had to walk around encouraging each other to keep us going, i hope you stay healthy, staysafe & happy.

I watch these videos, but Ive also came to your channel twice now when trying to do something. My first thought was, "I need to see if Dad has taught us this yet." They were kinda advanced things, so no dice. But it made me smile that coming to you was my first thought- twice. Thank you for these!!

@@reidclifton1 There is. She recently covered periods.

[@lauraliz6201]

This one...it’s painfully relatable. He would politely ask if we could shine the flashlight in the spot he needed it and then even explain why. I bet he would even wait patiently while I get the screwdriver....no, not that screwdriver, the OTHER one. I hope young dads watch him to learn how to treat their kids!!!!!

[@cheyhae]

Oh man... my dad’s not such a “handy-man” and I’ve ruined many a tools in the past cuz I wasn’t using them properly and no one was there to help. This is so helpful! Thank you~~~~

[@miguelplaza6433]

I discovered this channel through a link in Facebook to an article about the man. I am 14 and it’s been a long time since I had a father figure, because my mom and dad did not go on with their marriage because of problems. Don’t get me wrong my dad was a good man, I still had fond memories of us going to the arcade or going to Mcdonalds to eat for lunch. It’s been I think 6 or 7 years since I last saw him personally, now he is somewhere abroad and surprisingly with no new family, because he still wants to go back with my mother for the sake of me. But that is now too late as now I have a step-dad, he is also a good man too but I just dont feel comfortable with him, he taught me how to do weightlifting and that’s pretty much it, and the fact that he is a Seaman that is in a boat for the entirety of the year does not help. Pretty much now I learn the manly things from my own like shaving, etc. from the internet or youtube. I even just learnt how to tie my shoelaces 2 years ago by myself. So I am very thankful that someone out there in the world does things like this, it make me cry. I am posting this at every recent video so that he notices or atleast someone notices

[@kennethramirez7450]

This is awesome. I was raised without a dad and had to learn everything on my own from shaving to paying my taxes. Wished I had this growing up.
