I am a 73 year old fan, glad to see you have a lift. Your videos make my day a little brighter.

Yes exactly

Bob Johnson 🤣🤣🤣you kids and yours masks. 🤣do as the tv tells you. Don’t read the research out there, that for the broken down for the basic idiot says, why would you use a chain link fence to keep the mosquitos out of the house. Or maybe a fart molecule can get through your panties and pants, I’m sure a virus much smaller will get through your cloth mask!! But go ahead shout about a mask you social stain

[@matthewmckee9914]

Yes we need them, small business we can't let government kill this its important.

[@somethingtrulyhorrifying]

​ Jon Ellwanger Plus it's too freaking hot outside to wear them while working. I put one on before going into the loading bay because it's "mandatory" but it comes right off the moment I leave. But we can't insult people that do it religiously, after all they're the ones trying to be considerate and help stop the "virus". I can appreciate that, even if it's a load of bologna.

Is it weird that I welled up a bit watching this? haha After watching these videos for so long, you almost feel a part of them. Watching the shop get this lift almost feels like a good friend of yours is getting it. Congrats sir. You deserve this big time. And you thanking us made me think of something. Thank YOU for bringing us into your home and be part of your passion. I think I speak for many of us when I say we very much look forward to seeing each new adventure you undertake. Take care :) Chad

Backyard Buddy has been making that caster design for years. The leg design and safety lock is basically the same as a Backyard Buddy as well. Not that it's a bad thing, the reason I bought one was that this is the safest design for a lock. I don't know what this company charges, but I know I paid more for a Backyard Buddy than the competition back in 2002 because I wanted the safest thing I could find.

I’ll be honest with a guy, I can’t stop watching your videos. Best shop videos on the web, thanks for gettin’ it done.

I remember when you had around 40k subs. That is when I subscribed. Just keep doing what you're doing. You're awesome.

[@Smoothsounds88]

Derek, this is great success! Congratulations. Stay safe. Also, don’t be hesitant to ask your fans for ‘big’ items. I recon there a lots of fellas out there who would love to support your cause - not with cash - but with ‘big’ tangible items not unlike the lift. And, I also recon, the fellas who donate the ‘biggest’ assistance would prefer to remain anonymous and humble. It feels good to help a guy out. You’ll be at 1 million subs before you know it. Imagine what generous folks will have helped you with by then, and loved being a part of it. Keep going. Your style and content is great fun to watch. Thank you for being so generous with your time.

What did you choose for a compressor? Ive got 20 years of home use on a Quincy cast iron dual stage 5hp 60 gallon and it still operates like the day i bought it! Fun fact...when i brought the compressor home new we laid it down off the pallet into my half ton pickup. Felt like i needed two people to unload so i called my close friend at the time. He was drunk as a monkey and dropped his end and the belt cage got all mangled. Its still mangled to this day over 20 years later! Chris you know who im talking about...lol

@@williamstamper442 I am using an old camphell hausfeld industrial. I bought it used for cheap and rebuilt the compressor. It's a high volume single stage, all cast iron with a Baldor 5hp motor. I wish it was a dual stage but so far it has done everything I have asked of it.
