My Adams Road Grader was on National TV Last Night July 05 2024

[@littlepaddy7444]

I always get a lot of information from your videos. Thanks Joey and Xena bye.

[@kingofobsolete4789]

thank you, we are the learning channel,,,, i think, lol thansk

Hi Joey, not sure if that boat will ever boat again, but the proper way to address the boat by name, and makes it sound so much more regal, too.... Call it the MV Rust-O-Leum. Merchant Vessel Rust-O-Leum. Of course, if you are retired and no longer sail the MV Rust-O-Leum for pay, then MV stands for Motor Vessel.

[@kingofobsolete4789]

also you have to remember the Kingdom is a different world then the rest of the new world out there. the more and more government cut backs means the less and less we see gov people up here which is nice. thansk

[@randymiller1604]

Love the old grader very interesting story and it’s coming along really good nice work great video as always

[@kingofobsolete4789]

thank you, nothing i own has easy ownership or purchasing for some reason but we are having fun. thansk

[@brucewbowser]

This Gomez project could make you 2 even more famous lmao!! Your projects are very motivating... to get people off their butts and doing something using what they have. Every video I watch of you guys gets me excited to get my bibs on and get out to the shop. Thank you much!!

[@kingofobsolete4789]

thank you for the kin words. most videos today are how to spend money and more money on items you really don't need for a project and that is why people don't work on their projects. my late dad was one of those who made lots of lists and never worked on the project. thansk

[@jesselyall7519]

Sure coming together awesome.! Can't wait to see it all together. Its nice seeing a work in progress. Just like life.! Thanks y'all

thank you, had to retire to enjoy my projects thansk

That was photo of my tv. It’s on Roku channel app. Free tv. They have 24 hour ice road trucker channel. it was in episode after Art put the trailer in to the back of the sleeper. lol. Then he had to Follow the king to Lac Brochet.

thank you, i never knew you could watch IRT any time i thought the show was in rotation like most TV channels. once again i am learning. thansk

[@TruthProvider]

Hi Joey -- I find it most interesting watching you put the grader back together again. Lots of history to it and mechanical intrigue. This is not an easy project to undertake -- lots of time needed for reassembly, and money for the parts you need. Thanks for documenting it! Staying tuned!

[@kingofobsolete4789]

yes most people don't realize that any project is time not money unless you want lots of chrome to impress the ladies. for me it is a lot of remembering how it was taken apart and how to improve. thansk

[@kennethsonier1766]

Good morning from Cape Cod ⛵ it was nice to get to walk around with you and learn about equipment, and to meet the upcoming project Jack. Oh and it was nice to see the photo of Gomez from one of your followers. I'm beginning to think I need a skid steer, I'm going to start pricing them out, well used ones of course 😉 keep on bringing the fine content Joey ✌️🇺🇲🇨🇦

[@kingofobsolete4789]

yes my Kingdom Follower KZbin Subscribers let me see the world and help me learn too. a skid steer is the worse machine for an old guy because you have to climb in and out. then hard to hook up the chain your self. the mini Hoe is perfect for getting on and off plus easy to hook up the chain. thansk

[@kennethsonier1766]

@@kingofobsolete4789 I definitely need a bucket, hopefully get a backhoe attachment. There's tons of used equipment here in New England so I'm going to check it out and see what the prices are.

[@kingofobsolete4789]

@@kennethsonier1766 yes lots to chose from these days. make sure you climb up and down on the machine at least twice to know if you can get on on off easily. thansk

I'm glad you have a good parts man like sir Rodney! My projects have been slow My parts man cannot get me the seals that I need.But he sez he can get me the shaft! Un freakin real! Long Live The King! Zena when are you going to take us fishing?

[@kingofobsolete4789]

sounds like you might have to learn how to figure out seals like i did. seals for older equipment is easy. here is the video where i explain it. it must be a good learning video because the restricted the funds made on it, oh well thansk kzbin.info/www/bejne/e3SsZKyMetCCiLc

Thansk King. I remember watching this video but I'm sure I was drinking at the time and forgot your teaching. But I've got it now because I wrote in down...because I've been drinking... again.

King🤴, I can't wait to see the grader going.i know you have to wait on parts. I think Jack will be another interesting build. I wish it was 75F down here in S.E, Louisiana. The lows at night 🌙 are between 88F and 92F. I don't know how much this 61-year-old guy can take . Good thing I'm retired . Talk to you later.

[@kingofobsolete4789]

thank you, trying to share knowledge so people get working on their project with no money like me and no fancy tools too thansk

[@benjamincresswell3713]

Hi King, you sure made short work out of organizing the Gomez parts. And great job keeping the Cat D8 parts. Smart people hang onto old equipment & parts for "someday." Older things were really built strong, not like today's planned obsolescence. Ex: PLASTIC CARBURETORS. I know you probably don't mow grass, but today many lawnmowers are built with plastic carburetors! Imagine that, and you can't even have plastic bags. OK Fine Business King of Obsolete. Thanks for posting. ben/ michigan

[@kingofobsolete4789]

yes being organized is the best way to do things, it only took me 1/2 my life to figure it out. the new world is not a happy place as they screw up the simple things in life trying to make it better. oh well thansk

[@cantankrs2311]

That was a really good video! Plenty of positive messages, and you are fairly flying along getting Gomez ironed out and back together. Am also really looking forward to the ride along getting to know Jack. Sure looks like he’s had a hard life. Hope your aches wear off soon, Joey, and it’s good to hear Xena sounding better. Though, honestly, I’ve been jumping between your videos and I seem to have caught a few where she’s off colour. Hope she’s well.

[@kingofobsolete4789]

thank you, i am learning lots as we make these videos plus everyone helping along too. yes the staff was always sick working at the school with the kids. now she is feeling a lot better. thansk

[@cantankrs2311]

With the steering on Gomez, I gather its power assisted and something in the box rotates or pushes a control valve to cause the hydraulic cylinder to render assistance? The single ‘follower’ in the hourglass helix, under normal 100% functionality might not expect much load on it - but if anyone tried to use the steering box unpowered, then it could be a big strain on it? Would that be how it is? Always curious, always learning. Love the old machines. Thanks

[@57WillysCJ]

When they say you don't know Jack you can just point to the Cat, unless you have a bottle handy.

well the rains will be good, you guys had a few fires up there too thansk

[@carlcarlamos9055]

Among the most prominent headlines all up and down the west coast today was a short clip of two suspected arsonists caught on camera in B.C. One compounded his mistakes by catching himself on fire. They weren’t kids. The face of the one on fire was pretty clear. Evidently RCMP are on the case. The one on fire is probably going to need a doc in quick time, so they shouldn’t be hard to find. Moving on to a more pleasant topic, the birch trees in the “Staff’s” yard look nice. There are some other trees in that group. What are they? Are they alders? Gomez is coming along nicely. Jack looks to be another fine learning experience. Thanks for the videos. Take care.

[@kingofobsolete4789]

nothing will be come of the people who set the fires like all other criminals in todays world. just smile and wave and hope they never bother you because that is what we do. the staff cleaned up a lot of her trees last summer and are looking better this year. thansk
