Too much fun. Now your family needs one.

2024-09-29 18:46:48 +0000 UTCMy ceiling is 16'. If you go way back, I had my old lift in my old shop. The ceiling there was only about 10.5'. It was really a pain to work under a vehicle. I would roll around on a stool. It was great for brake jobs and things like that though. And it certainly beat working on the floor.

2024-09-29 15:44:29 +0000 UTCDon't worry, I know. A few times I have gotten comments there wasn't enough talking or explanation. That really throws me off.

2024-09-29 15:40:10 +0000 UTCI think it had one in the fold down arm rest, you can see it when Wes is fitting the bar on the back of the cab.

2024-09-28 18:54:32 +0000 UTCIf someone is willing to shell out $7/month or more for the trash Netflix puts out, donating to something I want to watch is an easy decision. Just a little less talk, and a little more work... Please. Please, please, please.*

2024-09-28 18:53:46 +0000 UTCBecause, we’re already forced to buy “ made in China” products and fund a country who would like to dominate us in global, military, and economic affairs. Why would you willingly spend hard earned money and fund the CCP if you don’t have to.

2024-09-28 17:30:44 +0000 UTCHmm. Never thought about that. I wish I could get these comments before making the videos.

2024-09-28 14:09:41 +0000 UTCThat's how it always goes! Way back in the day I had the big ugly forklift. It need so much work I finally scrapped it. No kidding a week later I was offered a parts machine for free...

2024-09-28 14:06:31 +0000 UTCHmm. That's odd. I like Patreon specifically because it's supposed to limit what people can give. You guys are too generous.

2024-09-28 14:05:42 +0000 UTCThere's kind of a divide on these machines. There's the $10,000 Chinese units for homeowner, and the $30,000 US or Japan units for whoever they are for. There's not much between. I don't know if duties would change that much.
Watch Wes Work
2024-09-28 14:04:14 +0000 UTCYeah I think I could do that.
Watch Wes Work
2024-09-28 13:59:45 +0000 UTCI think it would work.
Watch Wes Work
2024-09-28 13:59:30 +0000 UTCWhy? If people want to buy it, let them.

2024-09-27 19:40:14 +0000 UTCDunno if I would have been inclined to screw down some rubber washers on the top of the step where it wants to bang into the fender moulding. Inclined meaning it would have been thought about. Possibly discarded as a notion for needed to be on both sides to keep the step "ambidextrous."

2024-09-27 15:52:35 +0000 UTCMaybe some kind of plastic/rubber sleeve bushing thing could fix the wobble on the step?

2024-09-27 15:04:28 +0000 UTCShe is right, no "cup" holders is a major flaw. Glad another void has been filled
Robert
2024-09-27 14:45:59 +0000 UTCGlad I live across the pond from bugs like that! Good to hear you had your floor pumped up too, now as you say, m/c's should be happier without the extra bounce. The wood working area is exactly what I thought you would have - just enough, to get something done! Love the video, shows how you work, one thing to the next, then back etc, just like normal people. Good lad!

2024-09-27 14:42:20 +0000 UTCI'm a little slow this morning. Your lift is just over 12 feet but the ceiling height in your shop looks higher. Our concern is a vehicle would hit a 12 foot ceiling before the vehicle (like a pickup truck) is high enough to work under.

Watch Wes Work
2024-09-27 14:03:21 +0000 UTCI guess it's called a Wheel Bug. Never seen one before.
Watch Wes Work
2024-09-27 14:02:48 +0000 UTCThis lift is just over 12'. I wish it was a foot taller.

2024-09-27 14:02:17 +0000 UTCThe import duties should be tripled on that cheap Chinese junk.

2024-09-27 13:54:49 +0000 UTCthat’s what i thought

2024-09-27 13:39:39 +0000 UTCI upped my Patreon contribution. I didn't realize you could do a custom amount.
Jay VanLanduyt
2024-09-27 13:27:31 +0000 UTCYeah Wes... what she said... no surfing and get some cup holders installed... 🤣🤣 In her defense YouTube shorts are as addictive as drugs... I can' stop binge watching them myself. You got your MIG back! Looks like a new torch too. Wes... what are your recommendations on the minimum ceiling height for a vehicle lift? My son has 12 foot ceilings in his pole barn and wants to add a lift. The one in this video looks perfect and the 10K load limit is enough too. We are of the mind 12 foot is too low for a lift.

2024-09-27 12:49:35 +0000 UTCI am thinking that beetle is some kind of stink bug. Two points is a line sounds like a math teacher LOL..

Patrick Filion
2024-09-27 11:36:55 +0000 UTCIt's rare that I'm so early to the comments to your videos (I can't be awake that late). I always enjoy your welding/fabricating ones.
Nicholas Hansford
2024-09-27 10:29:35 +0000 UTCIt’s terrifying you had that void under your heavy machine area, glad you got it taken care of. Great job with the air system as well, how did you get access to the ceiling? Big Ladder? And lastly, nice street painting, must have been difficult with the traction lines 👍

2024-09-27 05:37:41 +0000 UTCThe Chinese unit's have improved some in the years since they appeared, I had an Odes, it was a 2005 ish Yamaha Rhino clone body and chassis with a Honda 400 clone engine and transmission, dropped a valve seat at one point and the previous owner had peened it back in which did work until it didn't, no parts were available and no repair was possible due to the quality of the materials and the previous repair, I spent better part of a year trying to find a real Honda 400 engine and transmission to put in it gave up and sold it for $400, not a week went by and I found an engine and transmission.....

2024-09-27 05:28:15 +0000 UTCIt appears to be a wheel bug, which is a type of assassin bug. Looks like something from a horror movie.

2024-09-27 04:18:55 +0000 UTCmy thought was cut it in half and have one for each side . and that was a spotted lantern fly
