Capt kleeman is awesome! That is a very cool gift. Thanks for the highlights!
Thanks Neil! I woke up this morning and orders were coming in! Take advantage of that space between your studs!!
Awesome!
EZ StudRack Shelving System. What a great IDEA! Ordered 2 for setting up my garage!!!!
The best gift for me is for you to keep making videos on your channel!! DDD came to me via a MORR video contest and I haven’t stop watching since. Thanks Neil, for great content. I’m looking forward to 2024!!! Merry Christmas to you and your family, and I can’t wait for some summer time pond clips. You have the Best Channel on RUclips, …well, for me it is!!
Thanks so much! That trip to MORR was a fantastic experience! Merry Christmas to you!
Hi Neil. Thanks for sharing all of the gift ideas! And I love the gifts that were for no money, but extra special keepsakes are priceless!!Great gift from Captain Kleeman too. Take care.
Glad I found your channel man, lots of great content and loved watching the pond build videos! Keep up the great work!
Thanks so much!
I’m glad to see that I’m not alone in my enjoyment of hats! I don’t think I have as many as you, but I’m getting there. I have a hard time getting rid of the old ones that have served me faithfully!
Your wife is so correct the best gift to receive is a handmade gift or a DIY gift from materials laying around your shop. Enjoying your videos stay safe and have a blessed holidays. Aloha from Kansas
Keep posting quality, family friendly material. Always enjoy the content
You’re the same way as I am with liking hats. I have too many of them but I can’t bring myself to throw them away. Great gift ideas Neil and captain Kleeman is a good guy, that was a neat gift he gifted you.
The homemade gifts are the best. We have a tradition throughout our family that we all make a homemade gift for everyone each year. It is the best to see those gifts through out time. They always remind you of the loved one that made it and brings you back to the joy of celebrating Christmas with them. It doesn't matter how elaborate or how simple the gift is. Sometimes family members even team up to make gifts and of course parents help their kids to make something as well. Those can be the most special to me anyway because I know the time they spent together crafting that gift also made a great memory for them.
This is a great family tradition!
I found you from Captain Kleman. I watch you both weekly as I am retired.
😁👍
Awesome! Thank you!
At the tractor show grounds at Menno, South Dakota there is someone’s hat collection on display, and a friend did some quick calculations and figured there were easily over FOURTEEN HUNDRED hats in the display! That show is usually held in late September.
Love EZ STUDRACK shelving system ❤❤❤
Thank you for all your videos Neil 👍 My husband and I are DIY'ers and enjoy watching from here in Australia. I love the spray can marking tool 😁
Love hearing from viewers in Australia! Thanks so much!
Great ideas! That limestone from @CaptainKleeman is amazing.
Right?!
That's how I found you, from the attachment segment on Captain kleeman's channel. 👍
Play button is cool. Way to to go Captain. 😂
I definitely am getting a pair of bifocal safety glasses. Why didn't I ever think if this? Appreciate that tip!
Captain Kleeman is why I'm on your channel. It would be nice to see you guys do videos together.
The stud shelves are a great idea. Thanks for sharing.
It`s nice that the viewers send you usefull things, the plastic shelving mounts that go between the studs is genius, you can clear your whole work bench off, all the best to you and your family during the Holidays.
Thanks for all the Fabulous videos Neil. See ya on the next one neighbor.
Your channel is so enjoyable to just sit down and relax and watch a awesome and always informative video thanks for making my Sunday mornings fun and relaxing!
To your whole Family Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
Very nice of you to say! Thanks so much.
That Kleeman is just a good guy! I actually found your channel watching his. That's an awesome gift. Well Merry Christmas to you and your family!
He sure is!
The ez stud rack is a great idea! I'm grabbing a set now!
Neil. The end of this video was what brought it home for me. Especially for me this year. Some other awesome ideas too. Thanks for sharing all of it. I may not have mentioned it when I met you earlier this year but I am also a HUGE Sucker for hats. Every Sunday or days when I am doing my DIY hats I rock the DDD hat you gifted me. Thanks!
yay.
Hello from the Netherlands Koch Family .
thanks for the video Neil .
Kind regards, Hollandduck
Hey Hollandduck!
Thank you for sharing your life and family with us all. Hope you and your family have a blessed holiday season and can’t wait to see more content. Hats are always a great gift. I have a friend from high school that does a hat a day promotions at the radio station he works at. He has over 400 hats. E bikes are great, I have a few older family members that can’t peddle the greatest and these products gave them the opportunity to get out and enjoy nature and the exercise they need.
Merry Christmas to you and yours. Thank you for the positive content.
That is so cool that Mike did that! I bought a signed piece of that Indiana Limestone and it sits on my mantle as a reminder that “I’m not a mechanic/welder/equipment operator I just can’t afford one” That spirit of jumping in and having fun with and and figuring stuff out is something I always want to remember.
For sure!
Bluffton Reiff here. I love to look around our house at the things I’ve received for our “Making Christmas” gifts. After years of doing this, it still fills my tank each Christmas. Merry Christmas and thanks for the Sunday installment!
That is awesome!
I have a saying about logo items like hats and shirts. I too have a lot of them and many times get colleagues who chide me for wearing them. So my response is simple: “You never know where your next paycheck may be coming from!” So there you have it, enjoy your collection.
I can relate!
Always enjoy your videos Neil.
Hey thanks Jason! I appreciate it very much.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Same to you!
I know this is a family friendly PG channel but when you said My wife loves…what you say at 11:20ish I sprayed my ipad with water from laughter. I know, I know, juvenile mind. Glad you got some swag now. Always glad to support a great channel. Definitely need a coffee mug!
I heard it in the edit. Wondered who would pick that out! 😂
Great ideas
Happy holidays to you and your family
John Deere and snap on gifts?! You do have the best viewers!!!! 😂 amazing!!!
I know!!
I’m going to be buying some of these items !
The limestone play button is beautiful. Great work by Captain. I just finished listening to his podcast on a few points from perfect right before watching this. Both great channels
Oy Vey.. lucky you, free stuff
It's not entirely "free" though...
Great stuff my friend. Happy holidays
Hands up to the "haven't started shopping yet" crowd!
I love hats!! My wife has made me pick my favorites & stored the rest. Looks like that was the case with you as well. Take care Neal.
Yes. I think she threw some away without me knowing too!
@@digdrivediy LOL I am sure my wife has too.
I want to wish your family a very Merry Christmas.
Same to you!
All good stuff for sure.
I thought for sure that Kara would say "POND!" Oh well, it's the thought that counts, Neil. :-)
Yeah you'd think! Both are hand made at least...
Another great video!!
Merry Christmas to you and your family!!!
Your hats are great but find me an old style winter hat. Remember that winter hat with the fold down ear flaps and a bill so I can put on a clip on light so I can go put wood in boiler
How about the DDD beanie? :)
Hats! Hats & more hats. I was a coach, garden/truck farmer & I have soooo many hats to. Mostly now I wear my alma mater LSU hats. My reason mostly is because I’m bald & secondly I just ❤️ hats.
I wear the Grey and black JD hat everyday!
Nice!
I also purchased an extended "grabber tool" I like to use it on my tractor to pick up sticks or trash without getting on and off the tractor repeatedly!
That's a great use case for one as well!
Nice ideas!!
Great job love your videos thank you
I caught the Snap-on virus from my Dad. Several years ago after getting some M12 Milwaukee tools I decided I was not going to have another battery platform. Then I bought an M18 tool and was hooked again. I also use pickup tools. Getting on and off my green mower and compact tractor is getting more difficult. I can pickup sticks from the seat.
All great stuff.
Make your self a hat display rack.. 🇬🇧🇬🇧👍👍
Nice, some cool stuff.
Nice suggestion, warmest thoughts and wishes to you and yours for this Christmas Season and in the coming New Year. Thank you for Gifting Us all the Wonderful episodes from your Channel. 😀👍🌲👍🌲👍🌲
Thanks so much and best wishes to you as well.
Niel, somehow I’m not surprised that one of your favorites is the zip tie cutter 🤣. WOW Kara is much more flexible on hats than Autumn! My hat collection gets paired down all the time 😢. But you are right “ you can never go wrong with a hat “! Take care my friend
I have to hide some in the shop too!
I think Kara has thrown away more then she's led on though however. Even with all these hats I can never seem to find the one I'm looking for.
The gloves are a must for me I have found those to be the best compared to the Milwaukee level one cut but for the price I keep about 5 pairs in the truck and best part is if any of my guys forget there gloves and we’re on site I can throw them a pair and it isn’t a $12 dollar set of gloves
Good morning Neil
Morning Terrance!
Thanks Neil I should my wife the hats to prove I’m not the only one obsessed with hats and can’t throw them out
I'm glad to be of service to a fellow hat hoarder 😂
I would love to see a video on your single axle tilt trailer.
I never know what to get my Dad. He's 86 and has everything or doesn't use what he has because of his age. You just gave me a great idea to try to make him something from scratch like he always did for us. From furniture to wall racks, my Dad hand made everything out of wood. Thanks Neil! Hope you have a wonderful Christmas 🎄 (and it will make great for a great video for my channel 😁👍)
That would be great! I'm sure it will be great 👍🏻
I'm the same way about hats! I work in a industrial maintenance position and I get a few hats. My wife says over and over I've got to many but I blame my grandpa for my love of free hats and keeping the ones that are special for whatever reason. Sometimes the best hats are the free hats. Great video!
Thank you kind sir!
@@digdrivediy do you have any insight or thoughts on the 1978 John Deere 316K (with the kohler engine)
that bike in bucket is a transportation system I also use 😛but I'm using an old bike for that, not the nice e bike
You need to make a rack to show off all of your hats so you can see them instead of keeping them in a drawer orbag, it would make a great video!
My wife says "but how would you dust them?"... I wouldn't :)
RUclips buried this one way down in my algorithm for some reason? 🤔 but couldn’t let a week go by without Dig Drive DIY
I appreciate you finding it. I have a feeling a lot of people missed it judging by the regulars that are missing in the comments...
🤔 if you were to run a CB in the dump truck what would be your CB handle? When I was a kid CB's were really popular. My dad put one in every vehicle. My dad's handle was The Hog Man and my momma was Juicy Fruit 🤣👍🤠
"The Woodchopper" or "Woodchuck"
11:43 Actually they were designed to flush cut soldered component legs from circuit boards.
IMO, They aren't really robust enough to last very long cutting zip ties, but man can use his tolls for whatever he wishes. :)
They've held up well for a year so far but I wouldn't be surprised to wear them out one day.
Most of my hats I picked up in the road
I usually leave those be!
hey Neil thanks for showing some gift ideas..do you know the shipping rates for merch to germany? Greetings 😊
No I'm sorry I don't. I can find out for you if they can't answer on the website though.
How about some merchandise with Bruno on it? 🤔😁
Great video. I do have to ask.... $27 for a ballcap? For a regular old HAT? OK, so I've never bought one (always got them from companies/vendors) but wow....seems like a lot.
It does; I agree. But at small volumes it is difficult. Buy the hat, the embroidery work and then pay the person to do the work. It adds up. There is about $5 profit in each hat and I receive $1 of it. If we made 1000's of hats instead of 50 or 60 it could get much cheaper.
I think you should do a firearm review of what kind of arsenal you have! You know, DemoRanch style.
That would be a short video I'm afraid! Nothing too much to show off here.
you sure that steel cup holder is really a chicken cooker for really big chickens 🤣
Can someone let the cat in?! 😂
Those cats are constantly in and out!!!
Hi
Hey
Always getting in trouble for not getting rid of my old hats 🤣
Me too.
I don't need a Snap On pliers to pick up a nickle. I can pick one up with a fork lift 😎
Who knew, Captain Kleeman could carve gravestones 🤣
He's full of surprises!
Calling a Cap a hat is like calling a F-150 Truck a car. Baseball hat? No, Baseball Cap! Cowboy Cap? No, Cowboy Hat! If it has a brim all the way around, its a hat. If it has a bill/brim in the front, it's a cap. 🤠 Just fun for you...
I think it's like calling an F150 a vehicle. It doesn't sound right but it's still not wrong:)
What about a chef's hat? It has no brim.
@@digdrivediyIndeed. To funny.
OBSERVATION any woman who appreciates your hard work making something for her, is worth keeping.
Agreed 👍🏻
Love captain kleeman channel as well i remember watching ur collaboration with him when u made the 755 quick attach plate for loader and u uped the flow rated on the pump to get for lift capacity out it awesome video Neil ps I also love hats and have tons I’ve collected over the years lol can’t bring myself to get rid of even tho I probably never wear again
It's a tough thing to throw away hats for some reason!
One of my greatest gifts is my son who was born on 12/28/22. He is a gift and a miracle from God!
Seeing Raycons in the "things you bought for yourself" and not promo category was a bit confusing
Really? Why's that? Are they a popularly pitched item?
@@digdrivediy They're as prolific a sponsor as Squarespace, Hello Fresh, etc
@@sl3848 Oh I see. I have literally never watched anyone that promotes them so they must target a different category of creator I guess. I may have been able to get a few pairs for free!!!
Hello Family Koch, let me ask you, was your father from Germany? Because the name Koch is German and means cook, did you know that? We've been watching your channel for a while now, me, Dr.med.Washington Reiss, my son Joel Reiss, my sub-daughter Inês Reiss, my Sub-Brinho Francisco Reiss, they were the ones who saw the first video and then I started watching it because you live on a farm , I grew up on a farm here in Germany 🇩🇪 but my Father is Swiss 🇨🇭German, my Mother was from Lisbon Portugal 🇵🇹, but my Father came to Germany because of his company when I was 14, so I've lived 40 years ago years in Germany now I'm 54 years old my son is 21 years old. We love going to the United States, we've been there 9 times in various cities. I work once a year as a doctor without borders through Unicef and doctors without borders. So it was about 10 years ago that I first went to Brazil to help disadvantaged children, now about a year ago we bought a farm there in the south of Brazil in Santa Catarina. All of Brazil is very beautiful there, many Dutch and Italian Germans also live there, they emigrated there because of the 1st World War and the 2nd World War. It's a pleasure to see you in the United States, your videos are good, they bring some good ideas for me to do on my farm, like this very creative round lake, congratulations Neil Koch. ( Sehr gut , wir kommen einmal vorbei um eine Visiten zu machen wenn ok ist ? ) What I wrote above was in German 😀 I hope you understand I said that one of these days we will pay you a visit if it is possible.? a big hug, friend Neil Koch and family, Dr.med.Washington Reiss, and Joel Reiss
I've seen multiple RUclipsrs imply this now. Raycons are NOT hearing protection!! The noise cancelation is great, but it doesn't protect your hearing.
Oh, and I'd like to know the difference between ear buds like air pods vs these. I have worn air pods and they don't seal up my ear like an ear plug does. The Raycons seal up in my ear like ear plugs and even when they are not turned on they block out noise. So I'm curious on the difference. For reference, I had a pair of ISOtunes ear plug style headphones a few years back and they didn't block out enough noise to hear the music when mowing. This is a great topic of discussion so thanks for bringing it to my attention. I want to know the specifics! What's the best?
@@digdrivediy Hey, Neil! Thanks for the response. While it's possible the Raycons work as hearing protection for you, it is highly dependant on the user's ear. I haven't been able to find testing specific to Raycon, there is testing data of several other Active Noise Canceling (ANC) earbuds that show ANC is not adequate for hearing protection. ANC cannot respond fast enough to protect hearing from things like gunshots or hammer strikes. And due to the way ANC works, by playing back the inverse soundwave, it's just not possible to lower the overall volume enough. Again, it's just down to how the earbuds fit your individual ears if it really offers any protection.
Aside from the technical aspects, I feel comfortable claiming Raycons are not hearing protection based on their marketing. Two main things stand out to me. #1. Nowhere in any of their marketing material do they mention their products will or can protect hearing. I've also seen ad reads where the host is reading the marketing talking points, and they never mention hearing protection. And the main reason, #2. Nowhere on their website can you find the NRR, or Noise Reduction Rating, nor any of the other (inter)national standards. To be approved on an OSHA jobsite, the product must have an NRR. Same for Europe and their standard. Raycon spends big bucks marketing their products in the US and Europe. If they felt their product was safe as hearing protection, they'd have definitely done the testing.
Personally, I'm not a fan of in-ear hearing protection at all. I think they rely far too much on the individual, especially for products like the isoTunes earbuds. I don't think any company has mastered quality, consistent in-ear hearing protection with audio. The human ear varies so much!
$50 for a grabber. God damn, that's a rip off
It's made of metal so that's going against it for being too cheap. Link me to 60" that is cheaper and I'm all ears.
@@digdrivediy I am in germany so pricing is a bit different here, but after a quick search I've found a couple that are metal, up to 60" long and under 25€.
Here is one, admittedly it's a bit more expensive at ~35€, but it's telescoping up to 80", metal and specifically made for pond cleaning, so I thought it fits quite well for what you are using it for.
They're called EasyPick by OASE. I wanted to link but then the comment gets deleted.
Edit: nvmd, you have the exact same pliers listed on the Homedepot for double the price I would pay here in germany on their online shop. That's rough, maybe it's not that bad of a deal after all in the US.
I bought a new 4052M from KENN-FELD in Woodburn, IN. They would not give me a JD tee shirt. They gave me a KENN-FELD tee shirt! Cheap a.. salesman , I won't buy anything else from them without a tee shirt up front first. Hats must be cheaper.
I've never gotten a hat or tee from them that didn't say Kenn Feld either!
I’m glad I either missed the e-bike video or you didn’t do one. I instantly unsubscribe. 😀
What’s wrong with an e-bike ?
@@pamelawoodall5891 as Neal said, every YTer gets approached, so I view it as the sign of the YTer getting bought by the Chinese companies. I just choose to unsubscribe for a few reasons if I see it and that is one of them.
Nothing personal, but I watch your channel because I'm interested in your projects, not to be sold yet another item this time of year.
My apologies. I get it. I only do this type of thing once a year. But in my defense the message by the end of this video is that the best gifts to give don't require you to spend any money.
Great show. Isn’t it funny all the money we spend on nonsense when the best part is the part we make up/ a creation that keeps at reach every time the receiver looks at it. ❤️🔥 you inspire me greatly. Keep at it brutha. 🦾🧬
So very true!
