Hunter, a compliment here from a guy who spend a few years being a freelance TV videographer in San Francisco. Your skills are getting good. I especially liked the view of the inside of the pipe from the far end as it was getting welded. Also a while ago I saw a nice shot of whatever the action was taken by aiming the camera at a reflection off of something. That's the kind of imagination that makes an outstanding photographer. Keep up the good work!

Paul is a genius. More of an artist than a fabricator. The time it would take to draw up plans would be a waste of time for all of theses one-off jobs. His ability to "see" a project and say cut it about here starts with an inate talent sharpened by a lot of experience.

The power going out is called a “Trip and Reclose”. Happy you know that your recloser (a utility breaker) is set for lockout on the third fault (which is very typical). The recloser is a protection device meant to clear a fault on the distribution line (12.47 kV) rather than having a fuse blow on a fault. It’s a pretty cool system (I designed these systems three decades ago).

I can so relate to the semi-fail on the halo bar on that roof. Built a cage for a SxS and used the halo on a A and B pillar like you did and nailed every length and bend but lost my horizontal plane an the tube ends were mismatched . We made a sleeve and fought that thing like crazy then parked a tractor on it and welder up! Like my dad told me , anybody can make it right but it takes a true craftsmen to make it wrong and fix it so nobody can tell!

Your family dynamics are awesome! It appears that Hunter is now part of the family. I believe that Ben and I must feel the same way. I work with my brother and we do custom contracting work in homes. He deals with the clients and five other guys and myself can't put our skills to work until he tells us what is in his head. That's where everything is kept. Lists do help productivity but we can't make one until he spills out what needs to be done. I work alone building and creating. One guy works in the cabinet shop and the other guys are paired off on other jobs. But we keep busy doing what we can see needs done. Then he shares the notes kept in his brain and we make a list. Thanks for sharing because I can relate Stay safe healthy and happy 👍

You may want to check your power feed coming into your property. Sounds like there is a connection problem coming into your property. Also may want to check with neighbors to see if they also have a elcetrical issue. Usually if there is a bad connection somewhere the results can be a fire as a bad connection builds up heat. Great videos, always appreciate stuff you guys fabricate.

And when it is someone else who conks their head a bit, they say ouch, and I say " I didn't feel a thing". Yep, it always comes back to bite me though, and when it happens to me, they say, I didn't feel a thing back to me lol. I wouldn't say that to anyone if they actually really got hurt badly though. You just have to know when to have a little fun with the right people, who understand you didn't mean it in a bad way.
