    I really appreciate that you do so much without the aid of hydraulic presses and power hammers (not that there's anything wrong with them, of course). It's inspiring to people like myself who do this simply for the love of the hobby, and have no plans to add big shop equipment.

    You’re doing great, take care of yourself and your family first then you can educate and entertain us when you can!

    I don’t know any reason your channel wouldn’t be monetized. Your not political, you don’t cuss, no nudity, no guns no violence. RUclips is absolutely unreasoning anymore.

      Yeah a lot of blacksmithing channels have the same problem.

      He is a guy showing Independence, and useful practical skills that don't necessarily fit into the consumerist global system. Oh, and he's also of a certain demographic....

      He doesn't start arguments or show stupidity. So therefore RUclips doesn't like him

    I do so many welds and can't get them to stick or weld like you but I'll say this: you smart, teach really well and have a heart wo big it makes me come back every time! I have never actually gotten any of your work but it's w goal to earn something you have made. One to go off of and 2 so I can say this is what wn expert does and this is what I do. Good on you for the train of thought to consider want wnd all the charities you choose. I'm a big kid (around this lifestyle) myself want would hate to have worried about food more than I did. Thank you bub
