    There’s another “Birdman” in Taipei. Good on you for your attention to the needs of our feathered friends. 🐥🐥🐥

    Watching you work never tires me out! I could sit and watch you make tongs all day. Be safe.

      Since I've been repeating myself with some of these projects of late, I'm glad to know you haven't gotten tired. Much appreciated.

    Always a pleasure to watch professionals do amazing work, meaning both you and the excavator operator. And thanks for taking care of that baby; at least my new ducklings haven't pooped on me yet!

    • @gstongs
      @gstongs  Год назад

      I'm not sure if it's considered good luck but I've been getting pooped on a lot lately. Biz has picked up so maybe it is good! Thanks.

      I started feeding these birds some years ago and now there's no stopping. At this time of year, they come by daily and I swear they can spot my bald head when I'm on the street! Thanks for watching.

    They look like dragon jaws. Dragon tongs!

    • @gstongs
      @gstongs  Год назад

      Yes, they do look like that. I named another style "dragon" jaw but I might have to change that. Thanks Jim.

      Not all of the birds bring a smile to my face - some can get downright annoying. But this one type of songbird always cheers me up when they visit. Thanks.

    • @gstongs
      @gstongs  Год назад

      I'll showcase my mini swage block even more. It's the sort of tool that once I get used to it I can use daily. Thanks for all you've done for the channel robert. By the way, what's your t-shirt size?

      Hi Chris, yes, those are reasons to "roam" but I already started on my next roaming video - visit a knife shop in Taipei. I should get that posted in about a week. Thanks.

    • @gstongs
      @gstongs  Год назад +1

      I designed this mini swage and had it made by a local machinist. I'm currently selling these since I have found my own so useful. Thanks for watching.

    • @gstongs
      @gstongs  Год назад

      Hi Ken, I just listed this on my website - $115 and that includes the shipping. But I may be able to do better. If interested, email me. Thanks. Glen

    • @gstongs
      @gstongs  Год назад

      Hi Melissa, I normally charge $50 per tong and $115 for this mini swage - prices include the standard postal airmail from me. But I can maybe do better... If interested, just email me. Thanks for watching. Glen

    Why are they excavating that perfectly fine road?

    • @gstongs
      @gstongs  Год назад +1

      That's a very good question and one I suspect they can't even answer! But I did see them bury an electrical cable so I suspect they are planning to put CCTV cameras (spy cameras!) on the light posts. Thanks.
