I just can't express how nice it is to watch videos that are done in one take/ one cut. It is mind numbing to watch some of the RUclips channels out there that have to put in a cut after almost every single sentence. I know of one project/construction channel where she is obviously reading from a script and has to make a fresh cut after, literally, every sentence. Wow, is it distracting. Zero natural flow. Thanks again for your efforts Cody. They are appreciated.
Absolutely. Some of the vloggers and youtubers jump cut in mid sentence every time they can't think of a word. Some people have 0 conversational skills. He also talks like he's talking to us, and not a camera. And that helps.
Great information, I was looking at this stuff and wondered how it would hold up. I’m headed to HF to pick up these items. Thank you very much for the review, much appreciated. God Bless you and your loved ones!
I really enjoy how in touch you are. As a 20 year old man I find that you can keep up with our generation and are open minded enough to see the value in our generations pass times and careers. When most people your age and cut from a cloth like yours would probably look down on the idea of being a RUclips as a career you decided to embrace it and that’s so cool. I’ve been watching for a long time quite a few years now, I look forward to watching you for years to come. God Bless
I don't know where you live but other than some scrub brush or shrubbery a soft shackle won't fit jack. We don't have redwoods but we have plenty of oak and others several feet in diameter. Maybe if west coast had been developed for 500 years?
I remember my grandfather would get coupons from Harbor Freight, and he would call me over to drive him to the store so we could buy him new tools every other week. I think he has about 4 or 5 drawers full of them.
Having some relatives who were very serious hunters and storytellers, I really appreciate his tale at end of this video on totally different subject at start. Please keep stories coming!!
I've had good luck with Harbor Freight products, although I did order a pocket-sized jump starter that failed to jump my battery. Full-sized Harbor Freight jump-starters worked great.
No..... Super DUPER COLD!! As a father of two daughters 26 and 11 I wouldn't trade any days but I doo miss them days of them SUPER DUPER young years. So young, impressionable, everything is So amazing!!! Such a cool time in parenthood.
Thanks for your West Coast wisdom! I retired after 29 years with the Air Force lived 12 years in Louisiana, 2 years on the coast of New Hampshire followed by 5 years in Germany. Finally moved to central Georgia in 91 to present, never considered myself an East Coast kind of guy. My entire working life was spent in the entertainment field. We rigged thousands of pounds over head of both lighting and audio. The idea of a "soft shackle" scares the daylights out of me. Now you you did say " used in the right application" ......but.....
Yeah, I was all about watching his videos. Back when he was planting forest trees and sawing lumber. I did not take him for a person that would be pushing non high quality, non American made tools and product. I'm off the channel.
Hey, just wanted to say how great it is having a trustworthy page to help give some guidance. I'm 26 from ky and my father has not been here to teach me these things I missed out on and your son needs to know how hard it is for us that don't have that father figure. God bless you all and Thank you so much.
Midwest boy here reminding that a "wench" is not a great word to call a lady but a "winch" is on the front of the truck. It's probably been said by others in the previous videos but I thought I'd add in!
Check out the Icon ratchets from Harbor Freight! OUTSTANDING!!! Phenomenal!!! They smoke anything you're gonna buy at Depot, Lowe's, or Menards. I use them professionally and I LOVE them.
I don't know, it's tough to top the ones all the aussies have out there. They seem to know it all when it comes to winching. Which does that mean they suck at offroading 🤔
I make my living logging with horses and I have been utilizing some of their stuff for a while now . Some of the same things you showed , hard to beet the price on those items .
When we visit the US a trip to Harbour Freight is always a must. There are some good tools and some have a warranty. You can sign up for email promotions that can save up to 40% sometimes.
Cody,some of the concerns I have with this video,are the country of origin of these products, and the quality of said products. The days previous video showed,imho what appeared to be inferior quality line. I thought you were a person who would always buy American.
I love your videos. Additional I appreciate any words of wisdom; I don't know what I don't know... As for the "crazy professional home owner" stories, that's just icing on the cake.
Hey Cody! In regard to the 'winch out' story....Pilots have a phrase for the planning of excursions...ALWAYS! Leave yourself an "OUT"! Also, there is the old adage of the six 'P"s...Pee poor planning precludes proper performance. Of course this goes with the most "useless" things to a pilot, as well... 1) altitude above you. 2) runway behind you. 3) airspeed you do not have. 4) fuel you did NOT put on. Kindest regards, Ken
Great ending to the video, I liked the 24hr winch-out part, I was about to see what to watch next then your baby girl stole my heart away. What an enormous vocabulary. I had boys lots of boys. Cheers.
I am ignorant so please correct me if i am incorrect, at what point to do go for made in USA or where you live over made in south east Asia somewhere is that cost saving enough to justify it not buying local made ?
Thank you first of all for what you do. Bless you & your family above all. Though I don’t; in my older age pay much attention to the Bible, but do not at all dismiss or discriminate. Sometimes I feel you are out of my league when it comes to the religion thing. (Much respect to you for doing so) maybe why my life is great, but not quite at 100% in retro, but that is what I strive for. Your insight ( I find to be almost like a sermón)which I appreciate, the way you have lived,& live is an inspiration. I see my little girl in yours & dream. Hope my littler man honors the lessons I’m teaching him as hours. Bless you & Mrs “W” 👌🏽🙏🏽

Come on east coast folks let’s here it. Here in the Midwest 27.00+29.00+25.00+25.00 adds up to 106.00 and I guess in west coast it adds up to 107.00. What does it add up to on the east coast?
I just purchased my Apex 12000 synthetic Winch with the same accessories. On sale $618.50 out the door for the whole shebang! BTW, HF Just started to make an APEX 12000lb winch with Steel cable I saw it in the store. touched the box. ;-)
Honestly, their stuff isn't that bad. You know what to expect. For me, they have replaced the old Sears. When I was a mechanic, I used to jump over to Sears to pick up whatever I needed or to exchange broken tools. Since Craftsman went down the drain, I find myself getting more one-time use tools from HF.
you can always weld a pice of steel on the shakkels so you kan use a lot more force to open them, wan there new thy will open but if the are used sometimes thy will not open without using some pleiers
@@funnyfarmdad9997 I Don't come from a military background, so I am not sure I am fully getting the joke. You mean they look so ugly that no one wants to sleep with you?
How about a video on packing a back pack bug out bag. One bag. Something we can grab and run. I know you have a bunch a vids on packing bags, great vids. I know a little about it, but you are way more experienced especially with the medical stuff. I'm thinking about getting the below backpack. Or can you recommend a better one?

First, thanks for putting the temperature back up. I have always appreciated that.
Second, good Bronco story. Lessons earned, eh?
Here on the east coast we use the soft shackles for tree straps due to the small trees we have 🤣
and you can carryout your game without processing them..
Midwest guy here, can comfirm!

My grandfather loved HF too. He always had the coupons laying around. Now all u have to do is google it and u have an instant coupon
@@serge4856 They stopped the coupons.
Question: Can you buy dual alternators for your truck at harbor freight? Or perhaps some loctite?
Having some relatives who were very serious hunters and storytellers, I really appreciate his tale at end of this video on totally different subject at start. Please keep stories coming!!
I could care less about the Harbor Freight promotion, but your grand daughter at the end is priceless. Ahhh to know the world when it was New.
I see what you did there. "Your daughter, who is Grand."
@@davecaselli1957 nah I just don’t think he realizes that’s his girl lol
This RUclips channel has allowed him to convince his wife to buy gadgets
I think she knew that about him before hand. :)
If I recall there was once a statement on a mountain bike video where she said “Double income... no kids. We got geared up back then” lol
That's funny
Harbor Freight has their place. I have a 6 year old HF cement mixer that still works great. My Predator 3500 is also pretty awesome.
Let's do math for our west coast friends. That's 106 dollars.
lmao i was just coming to post this same comment even after he corrected his 110 on screen he was still wrong lol
Hahaha Math is not Cody's strong suit. Even us Hillbilly's know with our old fashion cypherin' that it's 106 bucks.
my old kit was chain. with option of more chain. it worked
That equals 106 here on the east coast but thanks, we do appreciate it, lol
I just seen this after I commented lol we Eastern fellas will help him with math.
Thinking the same haha
Me too. LOL
our US made industry has no hope when Wrangler Star is all over the Harbour Freight stuff from China

Those are the fun times Cody!!! You never forget them fun times getting stuck and learning about what it means to be a man.
I buy their rubber wheel chocks. Been using them constantly outside for 4 years. Still in perfect shape. $5 a piece
Cody, you definitely have the gift! Not many people have the ability to have conversations anymore, and you can tell great stories.
I'm guessing that "Buy American" was just a fad
epic
Nearly impossible these days anyway. It's a good ideal to push towards, but there's tons of stuff that isn't made here in any fashion by any company.
Yeah, I was all about watching his videos. Back when he was planting forest trees and sawing lumber. I did not take him for a person that would be pushing non high quality, non American made tools and product. I'm off the channel.
"I wasn't even a professional homeowner then."
Professional teenager?
You are such a nice guy - keeping things simple for your east coast friends. I had to chuckle at that.

I like the canyon winching story, that was awesome. The best lessons are learned with sweat and tears.
hi from east coast ---thanks for keeping it simple for us ---we can't all be as fortunate as yourself
Midwest boy here reminding that a "wench" is not a great word to call a lady but a "winch" is on the front of the truck. It's probably been said by others in the previous videos but I thought I'd add in!
There are not a lot of "ladies" around anymore,
“Let’s keep it simple for our East coast friends “ lol’
The best thing about that is when he put the price he put 107 and that’s wrong
You know us east coast guys do everything you west coast guys do, except we don"t have to wait for good weather.
He needs to make is even a little more simple for us Texas Guys" Just say'n ... LOL
I snagged the blocks on sale for $20 a piece. Made a compound pulley to uproot a big tree stump. Performed great!
been using hf straps for years love them. so much lighter than lumping a chain. I pull skids to unload truck with them.
That old bronco is sick
Awesome to see the ambient temperature during the time filming.
Did someone say we aren't sure if the quality justifies the price?!
*Shines the project farm signal into the sky*
Check out the Icon ratchets from Harbor Freight! OUTSTANDING!!! Phenomenal!!! They smoke anything you're gonna buy at Depot, Lowe's, or Menards. I use them professionally and I LOVE them.
luv the sweet loaf out in woods ! Very cute
A "How to" Video would be great for all of us who don´t know how to winch.
I don't know, it's tough to top the ones all the aussies have out there. They seem to know it all when it comes to winching. Which does that mean they suck at offroading 🤔

Here at the Harbor Freight on the east coast that adds up to $106.
".....keep it simple for our east coast friends....." Love you man!
Can you do a review on your awesome glasses? They offset the toupe' really well.
Harbor Freight tools have always been on par with at least Snap-on. This has been my experience and I'm no fool.
Its so hard to focus when my dream truck is in the background 😛😛
You could include a a decent pair of rigging gloves and it would still be cheaper than the warn option. The sweetloaf if growing so fast
Without the explicit reminder, i forgot to mash the “thumbs up” button 👍
Any up date on the winch line?
Great little soft shackle/ Id call soft strop.
Never expected you to make a video like this
I know right. Cody was my rock for my argument that only USA made tools were worth my dollars
@@johnj.baranski6553 Things made across the sea are becoming better quality for less cost...its a no brainer

What's the status on the winch cable?
Yeah I was pondering the same thing.

Hello have a good day
being real is rare on youtube. keep it up!
For the professional home owner harbor freight is perfectly suited. Even for the East coast men.
I like Harbor Freight for tools I might only use once or leave in one place like a set of allen wrenches for the junk drawer
Harbor freight actually has some decent stuff now .. I go there from time to time
You guys are freak'n awesome!!!!!! Bless the Wranglerstar Family!!!!
East coast math has that at $106. Must be because we don't have common core in Appalachia.
I had a 73 Bronco identical to yours.....mine had a 302, column shift C4, power steering, and a pto driven winch.
Thanks for all you do God bless.
