    I like Mustie, he doesn't harp on you about subscribing or begging for "likes", he doesn't try to hock any merchandise, he doesn't ask for anything. he just says come on in and let's hang out and do some wrenching

    • @1pcfred

      I'm not sure how effective subscribe begging is. If you want people to sub just give them content they want to view. They're smart enough to think to sub themselves.

      No intro music with a redundant video title splayed across the screen. He doesn't spend several minutes talking to the camera, newscaster style, telling us what he's going to do, he gets right into it with his trademark 1st person POV. I despise those channels that do that, and most of guys are pretty ugly to look at, especially Uncle Tony (lol).

      @@Hjerte_Verke RUclips does make it pretty easy to fast forward video. I do that a lot on parts I don't want to see. There's also people that watch videos at faster playback speed. For some slow stuff I can see that. The format has been getting longer on the platform. I skip videos a lot just because I don't have that kind of time to watch them. There's parts of this video I skipped ahead of. Stuff like weld beads and saw cuts. I skip that. I know what's going to happen there.

    I love how you can go shopping in your stashes all over, that you have the room to store ALL the stuff you have kept over the years.. I have SO much stuff and almost NO room for it, I get bitched at constantly (eh) but man.. to have the space you've acquired over the years.. plus once you got that shop, man that shop is awesome. That new barn you have is going to be a sweet place to keep stuff too.. that upstairs you did with the elevator, SO nice.. to be able to use all that space. Man I keep EVERYTHING because as SOON as I get rid of something, without a doubt I need it and have to go through the hassle of finding whatever it is I just threw away.

  • @shannonwittman950
    @shannonwittman950 5 месяцев назад

    Mustie1, one of your best projects yet! I think this rig with the torquey 338cc engine is going pull from the bottom like crazy. I'd worry about the frame and small wheels in front taking all the weight and kinetic energy, especially if you were to go off-road. And I keep saying aloud -- I think cutting a notch in the fiberglass (tastefully) would provide easy access to the valve cover, if need be.
    That said, for many years now this channel is my go-to for Sunday afternoon relaxation with coffee and a grilled meat & cheese panini sandwich!
