Major progress on the homestead transformation. We rented Dirt Perfects Caterpillar 304 mini excavator to reshape and grade the slope on a failing ditch. Then we end up with his Kubota Skid Loader and his harley power rake to finish it all off. The project turned out great and we are set up for the next major step on the youtube yacht project. Hope you enjoy!

Hey Capt. So here's my 2 cents on the live stream idea. It sounds great and I'm sure people would tune in. This might be a little surprising coming from a viewer but I personally wouldn't do it. Doing youtube is great and all but it's already pretty invasive on your life. Going live would make it even more so. In doing my project, I've scaled back on taking video since I felt it was getting in the way of just enjoying the time with the family and creating those memories. No matter what anyone says, when the camera is rolling, you act/do things different. i think you're doing really well with the way you're doing things now and personally wouldn't invest more time into this. Not sure if any of this makes sense but there you go. Feel free to email me if you ever want to chat more. See ya buddy!

A way to test the livestream is to do what Indiana Diesel does when he is live, use your smart phone while going over the days plan live and you can see comments somewhat to respond to them. He usually only does 5 to 10 minutes of livestream. Use the community section to post when you will be live a day before so people can try to catch it if they want to see it. Running power out, good idea to set up a construction power station, charge batteries for tools that use them, cameras etc. Running cable or fibre-optic line, unless you plan on putting them into the KZfaq Yacht, would be wasted money.

Thank you for not having music on your video. During time lapses some KZfaqrs speed up the audio of the equipment to match the video and it's a nice effect. Either normal pitched or high-pitched. I have asked about it and they say they do it with free video editing software. Like iMovie or similar. Good interesting video. Keep them coming.

I think that would be a great idea. To be able to see the progress as it goes then maybe be do a recap video after a couple of weeks of all the progress that was done. That way you could answer any questions then. Then if there was any concerns people could help with comments if you need help. And if you have the Mrs. on board then you understand that you will be live and showing people all the things. I am sure you have thought about this before you asked. I like to see the work as it is being done. Thanks for the great videos and keep them coming

I understand you've worked construction, but I can't live without my power tools, and the older I get, the more power tools I need. 😁 I don't know how far you're talking from the barn to the KZfaq Yacht, but if you can get power close, I think you're ahead of the game.

I think you could use the live stream to promote a new video. For example, do a live stream where you explain what you are doing (land clearing for example) and then stream yourself setting up and getting started, but don't record the complete land clearing. ' End the live stream telling viewers that the complete video will be published the following day. Sometimes I don't watch live streams if I missed them live. This way the viewer can catch the short live stream and then get ready for the full followup video.

I got a nickle. I don't know how many channels you follow, but Nick over at Welker Farms does live streams sometimes during harvest, planting or spraying crops and he usually gets a lot of viewers, but they have a really big channel now. So it would depend on what you are working on or with how interactive you can be, he is in Montana and except for some power poles and the odd well head, there is nothing to hit with a machine out their fields. I would also suggest you and DP check them out just for the drone footage Nick gets while farming. Not that either of you are bad at getting drone shots, I don't want to sound mean, just thought you might get some ideas from him. Running power out to the barn would be a good idea if for no other reason that you could break up the cost by doing it in sections. I know you could dig the trenches yourself but you might save yourself a headache if part way through trenching DP needs the machine you are using and you might not get a chance to finish until later.

I don't watch live stream typically! But we're it a build & construction I'm game. I do prefer watching vids on my schedule so live is a problem

Rockey Rockey that seems to be one of the biggest problems with live is the scheduling of it. Definitely something to think about.

Live stream would be cool, however, if you don't get enough feedback here is another idea. You could get a couple of game cameras that have wifi capability. I know some hunters who have them and can log in anytime from the boats. Also, road and ditch are looking grate...haha

Live would be interesting to watch, but I think you would spend quite a bit of time setting up to do the work at hand that you would possibly get less done, and as you walk know with concreting time is of the essence. Think it would be worth setting a camera to catch wildlife passing through Mike Power supply would definitely assist the build too 👍😎 Would gladly come and physically give you my two pence worth to assist your project, but I'm the wrong side of the pond 💪😖🇬🇧

You know you’re going to run power and fiber optic out there eventually so in my opinion (2¢ Canadian but I’ll have to give you a nickel since we don’t have pennies any longer) it wouldn’t hurt to run it sooner than later as long as you definitely know where you want to locate the meter. Being able to livestream would be cool but not worth running the fiber optic just for that only.
