Why I left Grind Hard Plumbing Co.

I hope this video helps you guys understand why I left Grind Hard there is no hard feeling I just decided I wanted to make things for the street and go back to what I was doing before I started building rowdy machines with the guys.
I am excited for the future of this channel and can't wait to share these experiences with you.

[@8eewee]

Glad to hear that you guys are still on good terms. 3 hour commutes sound brutal... Looking forward to seeing what both you and GHPC are going to keep building.

Channel advice: Better audio. I don't care what you film with, but if it's harsh on the ears, especially for people wearing headphones, it's really hard to watch. You all really need to mic yourselves or redo it in post.

Yeah, definitely, good audio is probably more important that good video.

[@kender1412]

From a city dweller who got out in his late 20's, early 30's-- "I'm young and I want to live where things are happening." Sorry, BFE is where you MAKE things happen. It's the greatest place to be, when you're young. Cities suck. The 'burbs are a LITTLE bit better but, either way, you end up doing what everybody else wants you to do and on their schedules. You may be able to make some noise in your storage shed, but if you throw too loud of a party in your house, the neighbors complain or, worse, call the cops...and that's only half an hour after they LEFT your party. Being out in the middle of nowhere is SO much better.

[@Benzy670]

Glad there's no drama. People will look for it anyway, but it's totally reasonable and understandable to part ways to follow your dreams. It just is what it is, you know? Wishing you well, and looking forward to what you do with BUM! Maybe someday you can go link up with the boys and race your creations against theirs! The Grind Hard/BUM collabs will go hard

I appreciate the proper goodbye, thank you. I was upset when it just ended like that. I am 57 years old, I have been building creations off and on my whole life. I started with a rear engine dune buggy which hd a honda station wagon engine ( the 1600 cc ) But I cut through the wiring harness with a torch when I cut the front end apart. That is when I learned how to solder and so on. I can appreciate what you guys did on Grindhard but more so the learning curve that you went through. Trust me it's not over yet. I am now reviving my Ford ranger with 44 Super Swamper Boggers. It is 9 feet tall. Keep up the good work and never stop learning.

Will, you've got an aspiration which has viewers intrigued. The monster trucker has so far been the biggest and most intricate build GHP has done so far. That being said, if you and Edwin hadn't been doing builds like the Chang Li then I as a fan would have lost interest. GHP has it's place and Ethan is a master fabricator. You have learnt so much and I think BUM will also have its place on KZbin. Keep building adventures bro!

[@comedianmattrossey]

Admittedly I was disappointed you had left suddenly, but definitely had nor have no hatred for you doing so. I know from my own life that life is much better when you follow your heart, which you were obviously doing at Grind Hard, but if it wasn't working for you any longer, and hell yeah, a 3 hour drive each day, hopefully that includes both ways not just one way, then it's understandable. So far the videos since you've been gone are missing you. And there are bound to be new people that come in to replace you. This last while the projects you were building were incredible. I, and I think everyone, could see how you were suddenly growing exponentially. With growth comes new interests because we all have our own goals in life, so, I don't think you owe anyone an apology for your choice, and anyone that's going to hate on you for that really needs to check their moral compass, (that is if they actually have one), because it's not like they have never made similar choices in their lives. Where the hell do people get off hating anyone when they do the same things in their lives, and there is no way that anyone can say they have never made decisions like you made for anything but their own interests in life. I'm happy and proud that you care so much to make a video, tell us why, and tell us what you're doing now, ya B.U.M., 😆. Good for you! Too many people don't follow their heart and dreams and end up hating their lives, everything, and everyone around them because they would never admit they were unhappy and didn't make any effort to change what they weren't happy with. It doesn't take strength to make changes in life, it takes GUTS, and you've always proved on Grind Hard that you have those. Now, you've proven that to yourself. You have me as a subscriber to B.U.M. Great to see you you didn't give up Gring Hard for some office job or in banking, uuuuuuuhg. That would drive me insane to do. Very Happy for you man, Matt - Toronto, Canada
