      You should invest in a propane powered autostart generator for both your home and your shop. They are only 5 or 6 grand installed and could power your entire shop and equipment. They run on propane which you would in a big 250 gallon tank on-site that could run the generator for weeks.

    As someone who went through both Katrina, Ida last year and many other big storms, EVERY little thing that people do to help means the world to the people who need it. From evacuating a family from their flooded home to just handing someone a sandwich and a bottle of water. It's all very much appreciated. Salute from south Louisiana, brother.

    The fact that you went out and tried to help people in your area with the resources you had makes you one of the best creators on RUclips.

      Disasters are always awful, but the one silver lining I found when we were hit by a major earthquake in 2011 was the community coming together. There's so much bullshit and division these days that it feels like we all hate each other, but seeing crowds of students organising themselves to knock on literally every door in town, make sure people were alright, drop of a sandwich and a warm drink just blew me away.
      Makes you feel good about humans when you see a "lazy teenager" and a "grumpy old man" going round helping their neighbours.

    Im up in Jersey but my family has a house down in Winter Haven, Florida. Our house, which we've had for almost 20 years now, is surrounded with floodwater. Whats worse is that its next to a chain of lakes, so the backyard may have a chance of sinking in. The couple that is renting the house as of now is retired, but they still did whatever they could to keep water from getting in the house. (As in placing sandbags around the property and all doors because the house is pretty low to the ground) I'm not sure if the house was damaged or not, but I'm sure there's lots of work do do on it. Anyway hope you can get the shop up and running again, we're here for you brother. Plenty of love from New Jersey.

I'm blessed and here today because of my neighbors and friends cutting us out our house. The army had walked by no X our our house because so many trees where down and no one other than our friends knew a house was back there.

Everyone please say a prayer for these people.. There are a lot of people flooded that aren't near the coast .. But the wind speeds were rediclious.. I just got a little brush by when Ian was a cat. 1 on the other side and it was powerful.. But slowed down just enough to not really be bad here.. It's scary to go through.. Just wondering when the roof is coming off for hours.. Or flooding comeing in.. Man.. We barely survived Irma over here.. Some people had damage and there were tornadoes close by.. It was a long night.. And exhausted from trying to get ready.. I wonder how high above sea level it is there..

    I burned in the crucibles of Allison, Ike, and Harvey here in Houston (plus some terrible floods in our little suburb caused by a nitwit developer across the county line). A few of my family members lost everything to Katrina. My brother is the city water/sewer top dog in Lake Charles and had a few rough weeks after Laura, getting people's plumbing flowing again, besides the damage to his own home. These storms are a way of life for many people, but the footage of the high water really chokes me up with some rough memories. I'm glad this video is getting so many views (rubbernecks are gonna rubberneck) and even happier that this kind of devastation consistently brings out the good in so many people, helping each other.
