A great update. Despite Chris always demonstrating his phenomenal technical skills and all of us giving him hundreds of compliments all the time, let’s all put our hands together for Rob’s extraordinary gift of being able to find a regular supply of “sows ears” for Chris to do his magic on, creating endless numbers of “silk purses” hence jointly creating the profit that SRUK clearly makes. I really admire these two men. 👏

I've been watching SRUK for a couple of years now, give or take. This was my favourite video - by far. Having witnessed Chris's mechanical genius from afar via KZbin, and the way he is such a gentleman with it, he deserves all good things which come his way. The current and on-going changes are part of that. Love the pair of these lads and hopefully SRUK - and this KZbin account - can go from strength to strength with all this progression.

Wonderful material and an impressive update, guys. I couldn't help but notice a minor matter, which I assume you're already addressing. Given that this is a functional space where the potential for falls from elevated surfaces, be it an excavation or a low parapet, exists, it's important to implement preventive measures. Installing fall protection mechanisms like guardrails or sturdy barriers to restrict access to such areas would be a prudent step to ensure safety and protect yourselves from the stupid. Please nobody jump on me I am not the safety police gone mad, just a suggestion.

I agree you need the right environment to bring someone into then there is more chance that they will stay. I am so glad that Chris's projects will be getting some attention once these upgrades are complete. Yes I would line the roof and sides if possible but bear in mind of course that lining the sides will slightly reduce the width so find something which is thin but does the job. You and we can now see the end of this upgrade is in sight. Thank you Rob and Chris for this update. 👍👍

As for that leg end Chris, well not only is he one of the best body men I have ever seen but his skill levells at almost anything he does is truly amazing and a pleasure to behold. My boss when I was an apprentice plumber always instilled in me that it don`t matter whether the pipework gets boxed in and never seen again, it must be bang on level or plumb. This dogma has served me well over the years but alas I have had to give up the job I love due to ill health.
