@kulangflow2 жыл бұрын
@@reesesalen5033 Interesting point there. This is a good "chicken or the egg" type of question. Are they being friendly because of the benefits or are the benefits a byproduct of their friendships? I lean towards the latter because most of them were friends long before they had successful channels. At the same time, helping each other does tend to strengthen friendships which in turn improves each other's lives symbiotically. I don't have a specific point to make, it's just something I think about occasionally. Am I doing something good because it's good or because I'm anticipating something positive in return? I try to focus on the former because it can often make it more meaningful, but there's always some personal benefit even if it's just feeling good about the attempt. There's likely nothing wrong with either motivation as long as it isn't malevolent. :-) Also, you'd probably never guess that my kids think I'm long-winded.

Matt, if you find that there just is not enough leg room for it to be comfortable to drive you could get an extra 2 to 3 inches of leg room and probably 3 to 4 inches of head room with a much thinner racing seat design. There are a ton of nice racing/performance seats out there to pick from, some of which are carbon fiber shells with dense padding that is very thin but still very comfortable. Look at the Sparco SPX or some of the Recaro designs. I think you will find that most of them will give you more room to work with while still being comfortable to sit on. I can tell you from experience that it doesn't matter if the seat is super comfortable if your legs aren't, and all the leg room in the world doesn't matter if the seat sucks!

Good advice about the welding and that’s what welders should be doing all the time anyway (paying attention to there puddles) a good welder knows how to control the size,shape & temperature of there puddles. In order to do that you have to be able to see the actual puddle and if you can’t then you need to adjust your lenses so you can. That is one reason that so many people have issues with welding aluminum is because it’s more difficult to differentiate the actual puddle from the rest of the weld due to the color of the material.

All the cutting/ grinding/pounding will ruin your hearing, trust me I know. After a few years doing such things myself I now have tinnitus (ringing in the ears) that doesn't go away, and use hearing aids. Hearing aids don't make up the difference of what you lose.

Ok Matt's moving forward with the biggest wrecker build and things are coming along! I love all the jabbing that Rory and Paul are giving Matt. Holly made a surprise visit getting some parts and Lizzy just keeps getting better at welding! She's going to be a good replacement for Rudy with her welding. Keep charging!

Matt's, it's great to see you work with safety glasses, it starts with a reason, in the end taking care of yourself to minimize the dangers at work will always be very positive for all of you, and it will serve as an example to others.

Hope you have the room for getting to your number 7 and 8 spark plugs, up against the firewall. I wrestled with mine yesterday afternoon changing spark plugs in my Tahoe. It's a tight squeeze back there in the Tahoe, and I noticed your sheet metal comes pretty close from what I saw! Good Luck!

The world's biggest wrecker is looking good, I think it's going to be a close competition between you and Rory you have both been in the tow world long enough that you know what and where to do everything.

I think it would be cool to add a small service door on the big flat front of the doghouse inside the cab. It might serve useful in a maintenance event down the line

Hey Matt this will probably get lost in the comments but you should add a drone to your fleet. It would help locate customers as well as get some awesome shots for the videos Love the channel!

Another great video “in the can”…..Lizzy’s gotta be one of the best “natural” welders I’ve ever witnessed, all the friends (competition) stopping by to check out y’all’s build, Trevor is always a trip (see what I did there?), Tucker is just handy as all git out, and Tom Tom is always there when needed. The build is awe inspiring in its complexity and I look forward to seeing y’all “rollin heavy” in the near future. So, when are y’all gonna begin the naming contest? 😊

A crazy busy week for Matt good that he has a great crew, the heavy wreaker is coming along nicely, Tucker's 4runner got some needed upgrades, the joke on Robby's transfer case is a good one, when Rory & Paul showed up it just goes to show some friendly competition, thank's for sharing God bless ❤😉👍

I believe a Lot of forward progress has been made on the wrecker! I hope we will get to see Robby's face when he opens his transfer case package! Lol.

Matt’s levels of eye protection: 1: ward off flying debris with your aura 2: squint 3: peer through your fingers 4: look in a different direction 5: actually wear eye protection the build must be getting serious, because this is the first video i’ve seen it get to level 5!

That firewall looks like it would have been a great place for a removable dog house for servicing broken things. You do seem to break things fairly often. Nature of the beast I'm sure.
