      @@Askjeffwilliams you should release those as a premium patreon package haha! Been inspired lately by you and wondering what formal education, if any, I should pursue in order to become a prospector and miner. I too work on cars and weld/fabricate by trade but have now found this a new obsession. Thanks for your time and dedication, hope to hear back from you sometime soon.

    A man with a hobby you cant fault that :) So as i was a modeller myself for most of my younger life. {Flying scale ww2 model planes and racing just about every scale model car there is out there in competitions all over the UK }
    Did you make the wheels for the ore buckets or were they "borrowed" off a train set ?
    The main wheel at the top of the frame was that made or "borrowed" ?
    And what is the bucket made of ?
    Love it Jeff do you have any more ? if so next vid more detail please. :~) Steve UK

    Dude! What degrees do you have from college? Ive been watching your vids and its not like you speak like a man who's learning as he goes. You seem to have deep knowledge in geophysics, geology, history and by this video engineering! Haha I love your work! Im just getting into prospecting/rockhoudning. Been an adventurer for years but now found a new hobby as I'm out in the bat lands! Thanks for all your vids! super informative and always ridiculous. Haha, Cheers friend!
