      Thanks, I made the decision that if I was going to make TH-cam videos, I was going to be thorough about it. I got tired of seeing videos that don't show the whole process, or don't explain anything, or horrible camera shots, etc. Mine aren't perfect, but I think they're decent.

      @@JSARLIS It’s up to you, I just make a point to when I’m working near an air bag. But that’s a matter of personal preference.
