Property Cleanup is Done

[@graveloverlord]

So for all those watching. The video makes rhe scale of things look so much smaller. Being there personally it's like night and day difference. A lot of work went into that clean up and it's so much better than tou can even begin to realize. 🎉

[@HODGEPODGEDODGEGARAGE]

@graveloverlord thanks for the kind words and for also elaborating Dustin 😁👍 It's hard to tell on camera. Glad you stopped by 🔧🔩

[@terryfromsouthcarolina4601]

Great to hear from you Zane! I understand where you are coming from on having time. Once upon, I had two boys, home maintenence and a full-time job as a shop supervisor at a plant. I was on call 24/7 for many years, and the early/late thing rings true. When something breaks, the machines dont run....etc. Now the kids are gone, Im disabled and my wife of 43 years passed last fall. Im almost 66. Time may become more plentiful as you get older, but you move slower and get just as much done as before. Organize and sort now, you will thank yourself many years later. You are like me, I have many projects, and that keeps life interesting. No getting burned out on one thing, LOL! Keep up the fine work, Zane. I'll be here waiting for your next hello! Cheers Terry

[@HODGEPODGEDODGEGARAGE]

@terryfromsouthcarolina4601 thank you for the kind words Terry. It ALWAYS makes my day to see a comment from you 🙂👍 Getting organized and hopefully soon I'll be able to finish at least one of my projects. Gotta keep moving forward 😎🔧

Isn't it annoying how work gets in the way of the projects at hand? Well Zane, as a one man clean-up crew you are doing really well. Keep up the good work and keep the videos coming as you can.

That was quite the project it looks much better now. A building with a lift would be really nice.

[@HODGEPODGEDODGEGARAGE]

Oh yeah Nathan, hopefully the lift will happen. Thanks for stopping by my friend and happy wrenching on your projects 🔧🔩

[@thecollectoronthecorner7061]

Debbie and i just watched the video. Debbie says she wantsyou to come here ad do the same.LOL. Eny Road you got it better organized. I simply havent been buying big items like tractors or vehicles ect. We sold three pickups this year. We are retired and still dont get much done.

[@HODGEPODGEDODGEGARAGE]

Property is looking spiffy Zane! Lots of work you got done! Smart idea with the axle for the saw mill! Looks good!

Great to see you investing in the channel, what I mean is cleaning up to make the projects easier to work on. Looks good!

[@markpospichal1309]

As always, good to hear from you. You have done an excellent job on the yard. It was no small feat, considering your schedule the timeline is actually impressive. Just curious, I don't recall noticing the White cab, did I just miss it or is something else going on? It will be nice when you are able to post regular project videos again, but everything you make is enjoyable to watch so don't get worried about it. Stay well and thanks for posting...

[@HODGEPODGEDODGEGARAGE]

Thanks for the kind words Mark, that truly means a lot 🙂👍 The white International cab was covered with a tarp in the past. It is my grandfathers 1977 IH cab on a 80's GMC Topkick frame. Has a 3208 Cat and 5 speed spicer. My dad was going to make a dump truck out of it but ran across this older GMC cheap. I may show that in the next video. Have a wonderful evening my friend. 🔧🔩

[@rogerlalonde703]

Well Zane my experience on a bocat was doing landscaping and it was a learning curve found out it worked better at higher rpm’s than lower cause it would stall but all in all. My neighbors thought I knew how to use it cause I was doing wheelies ! But I did a ban up of a job being a first timer landscaping turned out great got to get rid of some real large boulders that I did have the opportunity to just dispose of up along a pole line that was just down the street from me and I had someone to make sure that no on coming traffic and I again full throttle. And like I said I was doing wheelies with it and one hell of a strong machine mind you I had done this several years ago at the same time me and my brother-in law laid 2000 thousand square feet of sod down in two hours on the hots day too boot !

[@HODGEPODGEDODGEGARAGE]

Wow Roger! 😃 You both were moving fast to get that sod down! Nice work! Oh yeah, it's a pretty big learning curve, I've found as well that they need to run on higher RPM's to move easily. I've had mine at the tipping point a few times and that gets SCARY! Thanks for stopping by and have a wonderful Sunday evening 🔧🔩

@@HODGEPODGEDODGEGARAGE thank you it’s a long and lonely two years as of July 27 !

[@TylersNeighborhoodGarage]

You did a great job, bud. Let me propose some of my organization habits- 1. Decide what you really need to keep, and what needs to go. Some of those vehicles are very weak examples that you know you won't ever touch. You have most, if not all of the money for your pole barn still sitting in the weeds out there. Which do you want worse? I asked you about that Dodge D250 back there and you said NOTHING is for sale...so I bought my own diesel truck:-) Keep or sell the engine and rear, scrap the rest. Don't even consider whether you should maybe keep one of the 500,000 d series trucks because you'll never find another one. Just be a shark out for money. The purpose of obtaining scrap or things to be turned into scrap is to make money, not to look like Fred Sanford😁 2. Try not to turn into a serial disassembler. The jeep is apart, the International wrecker is apart. Try not to take anything else apart until you are SURE that you are willing to brave the heat and hunger to see it through. Hang in there!

[@TylersNeighborhoodGarage]

I forgot one...ask yourself if you can stand to have a cleared off lot with wide open areas. Not being mean but people who collect do so because they like filling open areas up. They don't REALIZE that, but that's why they do it. Also, per the sawmill, are you helping some of your stuff by owning it? Not being ugly, just posing tough questions.

[@HODGEPODGEDODGEGARAGE]

You're 100% correct Tyler 😁👍 Been realizing a lot more since this whole cleanup has been going on. I think I've actually got my parents in the mode to sell some of their stuff as well. Would LOVE to say I won't take anything else apart but some things have to be parted out to sell the stuff I don't need. I may even change my mind on that soon. I hope things have been going well for you. Happy wrenching 🔧🔩

[@HODGEPODGEDODGEGARAGE]

Oh, I get you. I know what you mean Tyler. The sawmill is not mine, but now that it's moved I think my dad plans to sell it. Same with the planers, He wanted to do something with them but life gets in the way. I have bought a truck or two but sold others. Trying my best to keep from filling it back up, I've already passed up on some amazing finds just cause I'm tired of mowing around everything as it is 🤣 Happy wrenching my friend 🔧🔩
