      He actually lived in a home for boys for 6yrs, then with a foster-family where he was beaten almost daily for 5yrs,🤕, he's over-came so much in his short life, he should write a book about it.

    I must say, when I first watched your channel a number of years ago when you were a young kid, I was in absolute awe of you knowledge and expertise at such a young age and still am. Diesel definitely flows through your veins buddy. I, like many others I am sure, are always excited to see when a new episode comes up.

    Gotta say ~ Thank you for putting a face to those Expert pair of hands.
    My dad used to tell me, there is nothing like "Hands-On" experience, to
    to broaden your learning. When you get in there; and get your hands soiled
    and learning by trial & error is Rewarding!! Keep learning as much as possible.
    You're still young and as the years pass, you'll be Mega successful.
    As usual, A.H., Well Done!!

    With the damage until you moved it with the bar on the teeth it was not going to go. Then ya'll discovered ya'll still had the crank pully wrench on. Seeing as how it had moved and sprang back it was going to go.
