    I've been watching for some time now. Ever since you were in a two car garage. I thought the move to your new house and shop was a great move. And what you did with that steel building was definitely needed. Great job! I just wish the move to a new shop would have been better than what you already have. It will be nice to have more room, however: is that the best that your area has to offer? You guys deserve better. I remember when I first started watching, everything you guys did was fun! You all had a great time. Now...everything is serious and you don't have as much fun at the shop and races like you use to. I hope you can get it back. I'll never forget the night Jesse swam the pond and hoped the gators didn't get him. Gator Bait at it's finest. Good luck with the new place. It's gonna take a lot of work and I hope you don't have to pay for all the work you're doing to get it workable. Get some security too! I'll keep watching!

Never stop expanding make calenders its something that never stops making money every year. Make your own merch with your own printing business and could get a cnc machine working. Hopefully soon you will be in my neck of the woods picking up your new not previously owned Cornett engines.

  • @brucewoodruff4911
    @brucewoodruff4911 2 года назад

    Hi HTF the hoist you have in the back yard is known as a Gantry Crane. Most Gantry Cranes are bigger but it can still be classified as Gantry Crane because it's basically an A-frame structure that straddles an object that needs to be lifted.
    In order to use it you would need some kind of a hoisting motor that's either chain or cable and electrically run or manually run with wheels on it so that it could slide from side to side on that I-beam.
    I hope this helps you out gentlemen and keep up the good content. And don't forget to give God the Glory for Blessing you guys with where you are!!

    You attached a chain hoist to the I beam, wheel it in place & can lift motors in & out easier than an engine hoist. If you don't want it or the welding/fab sign let me know

    To clean a concrete floor....Wet the floor. Generously sprinkle TIDE laundry powder around. Scrub it in with a stiff broom. Let it sit for at least 20 mins. Scrub it again with a stiff broom. Sit another 10mins., then rinse well. Do that 2 or three times before sealing it. After it's sealed or painted, it'll look better and clean up easily in future.

  • @twointhewest
    @twointhewest 2 года назад

    The thing outside is a rolling "A" Frame for lifting heavy parts or engines. The beam at the top can be used to mount a chain hoist that can swivel & roll from one side to the other if needed or a come-A-long (a ratchet type lifting device). An electric hoist could also be used on the beam.
    The building really stands out & will house all you racing assets.
    The echo will diminish some as you begin to fill it with all the race cars & hauler & trailer.

    The mystery pieces of equipment out back looks to be an roll around “A”-Frame that you normally would have a “trolly(s)”that slides across the top “I”-beam to which you would hang a “chain-fall(s)” to they are extremely handy to lift and move heavy object(s). They beat the every living hell out of using a traditional style “Engine-Hoist” because you are lifting the load (engine” vertically up as opposed to on a slight angle of a traditional engine hoist. If it were me and the A-Frame was free for the taking I would look it over real good for structural integrity and if is good or only needs minor repairs I would sand blast it or wire-wheel/sand it down give it a brush/roller paint job with some Rust-Oleum Trim-Clad and get a I-beam trolly and a chain fall and start using it.
    Personally if you don’t have a long term lease I would maybe not paint the floors but instead just keep them clean by washing them with a little Tide or Zep Concrete Soap and broom whenever they need it after all why spend money on something that you are not going to be in for several years or more. I think the shop definitely looks like you will have all the room you will need. That said have you thought about a security system and or a shop dog

    That is an A-Frame for pulling engines. Put a chain hoist on it and it will work great for you.

    For what it's worth, at least part of that building used to be a welding shop. The paint job is OH SO FITTING for the HTF gang. Sweet!

    HOME SWEET HOME. BUT... Building looks to be cold in winter and leaking water under the big doors. Office is a closet. Bathrooms are out houses in-doors; water standing around toilet (hope toilet works). All around armpit / moneypit. Very good news for landlord. Tree removal and parking lot improvements. Paint all the black squares first (looks rough). 👌 Landlord hit the jackpot.

    It almost looks like you could drive the toter and trailer right through HTF north to the back lot. Looks like a great place for HTF motor sports! Congratulations on the new shop!!

    Can't wait to see what you guys do with the new to you shop. Ooooohhhhh baby I'm excited for you all. Best of luck with everything. I'd be happy to be your security guard there, I am pretty cheap, not free, but cheap. I'm retired and get disability. Can't jeopardize my income, therefore I am pretty cheap.
