Glad to see you're getting better Keith and taking the time to focus on your health. You're fortunate to have good doctors and be so close to one of the best medical facilities up in Atlanta. Get well sir!
Tifton is hardly close to Atlanta!! Closer to Savannah/Charleston .
@@par4par72 Tifton to Atlanta is nearly the same as Tifton to Savannah. 10 miles difference is nothing when Atlanta has all the highest rated health care facilities in the state. Charleston is much further than either of the others.
@@kindablue1959 that was my thinking. Some areas of the country have a days drive or flight neccessary to access top rated healthcare.
Glad to hear you're feeling better. You look good. Somebody once told me that "minor surgery is that which is done to somebody else. If they're operating on me it's major."
It's a good day when we can still smell the coffee and see the sun. Prayers are with you glad your back. :o)
You are looking healthy and happy Keith, and we're all looking forward to spending 2023 with you. Thanks for sharing!
Great news! I went from 300 to 170, changing my diet. Dropped all meds, it's a challenge but doable. Three of my favorite TH-cam channels are from big southern guys, and I sure would love to see them make healthy changes, so they're with us for a long time.
Sorry to hear that bro, do take it easy and I wish you a quick recovery back to your old self. Yeah please do keep drinking we are not camel I mean just HO2 though some beer after once you totally back to your good self.cheers
thank god! my heart dropped when I read the video title.
Glad to hear you're feeling better.
~M~ happy to hear it get well soon
I am surprised at all this and am grateful you are being monitored so closely. Dehydration is a serious thing especially as the years click over. A daily brisk walk, even 10 or 20 minutes is salutary for body and soul. Stay well.
I believe you need a brake resistor for your drive
You look great keep up the good work 👍
Dehydration is more common than most know, getting dizzy is a symptom as can head aches and confusion, many are dehydrated and not aware. Being dehyrated is a factor in Covid deaths because it cause the blood to be thicker and worsens blood clotting. I've had gut surgury and will always be prone to dehydration because I lost most of the colon - which serves to absorb water. Get into the habit of drinking more water than you think you need. Sports drinks can help
I always appreciate these videos.
Glad you are better Mr Keith
Praying for you brother.
Glad to hear your better.
Take care Keith!
Happy to hear that you're "on the mend" as they say!
KEITH, GREAT UPDATE, YOU GET BETTER...SEE YOU WHEN...
Take care. I'm also on a weight loss journey so I wish you all the best.
Best wishes Keith get well soon
It sounds like corrosion inside a cable. It heats up and changes the resistance . Check for cold solder joints at cable ends with ohm meter.
Hope all back to normal soon. Take care of yourself.
Get well Keith. Sobering experience no doubt.
Hi Keith. One thing you may wish to get is a smart watch; they can help monitor your exercise, blood pressure, heart rate, etc… as well as be a watch. As a new owner of an Apple Watch myself, I set it to remind me to stand up and walk around occasionally. It can also monitor how much I walk/exercise daily. I’m pretty sure smart watches from other manufacturers have similar “health”-related features.
I hope ya have a full recovery and surgery is a great success.
God Bless YA!!!
You're looking much better.😃
Get well and heal up.
Get well soon
Keith, very good news your Med situation is getting better by the day. We spoke in spring of 2021 regarding the Reed-prentice lathe parts up here in Griffin, and days later I showed up with a Hernia that had to be dealt with immediately. You too will snap back to normal from surgery before you know it. Keep us posted on your progress. Hope to talk again in the near future! Johnny
please get well soon
Take care Keith. Best wishes Buddy
Glad you better Kieth .
Glad you're doing well. That's again for all the great videos
Take it easy and we love your channel
Happy to see you're getting better. :) 👍
Sorry to hear about your medical issues, get well soon !
Glad your doing better.
Be well!
Glad to hear the surgery went well, take the rest, take care of yourself; there are plenty of machines and there will be plenty of jobs to do - there's only 1 you.
Hey Keith, I am glad you are overcoming your health issues and will be back to normal soon. As for your Drive controller, if it has a current limiter switch on it, it may be set way to low, such as zero or one. You can dial it in by starting off at the maximum setting and then see if you can operate the machine. If you are concerned that the motor can hang up and destroy itself, you can set that Limiter down from the maximum until you feel comfortable that if the motor does bind up, it will open the switch and interrupt the power to the motor and keep all that Magic smoke inside.
Glad you are doing better
one thing that I have found can help with cases where electronics should work but are not reliable - triple check all the grounds. make sure they all are solid, short connects back to the same point. make sure if a device has more than one ground post to ground all of them. And on anything with high current demands make sure the signal wires to sensors are shielded by a ground - run it in coax with a good ground to the shield. also do not bundle together (neaten up) a high current wire with signal wires - the high current spikes create false signals that can literally jump through the insulation (inductive coupling) into the sensor leads.
Gute Besserung und weiterhin viel Gesundheit / Get well soon and good health!!
Get well soon Enjoy your videos
Glad you're doing better!
You're looking great man. Glad you're on the mend.
I am so *glad* you are on the mend Keith!!! It doesn't matter how old or young one is, even when surgery can be done laparoscopically it is NO JOKE at all! Take it steady and let your strength come back at its own pace. The most important thing is your being fit and health. If the videos need to take a backseat for a couple of months then I know for a fact everyone here will understand and support your decision.
I also have to say I did a quick double-take at this title... In my part of the North of England 'Piddling in the shop' would probably be the unfortunate result of bladder surgery!!!
Praying for you partner, thumbs up.
great to see you thanks
Glad to hear you are on the mend
Take care of yourself Keith! You are an inspiration to so many of us! Glad everything went well.
Speedy recovery!!
That motor generator setup sure does look sweet right now! lol
Glad you are feeling better and hopefully it is that driveunit that is bad !
When the moon hits your eye, like a big pizza pie, that's amore.
When you walk down the street and your heart skips a beat, that's arrhythmia.
When your dressing for mass and he's filling a flask, that's annoying.
Keith, I noticed in the last video and todays that have lost a little weight, which is always a good thing, keep it up. I had to lose weight in order to get knee replacement surgery and I struggled with it for quite awhile. Well thanks to a new diabetes med, Ozempic, I got my diabetes under control and a welcome side effect to that I lost 60 lbs. putting me under the limit for the knee surgery which is scheduled to start Mar. 7 with my right knee. So if things go to plan I should be pain free come my birthday in July. Y'all take care and keep shedding those extra pounds, your knees and your heart will thank you. 👍😄
You like I was at 1 time PLC control , Work on PL c's and drives and when I had the health problem they all gave me a hard time I was getting 2 into my work. Get better thanks to see everything is going good Thanks for the video . I remember doing them great big 2' belts conveyor belts and 3' wine conveyor Belts
good stuff!! We take for granted the importance of hydration especially during cooler months...2l of water minimum per day according to your needs...and the foods whew!!
Mr Rucker get well !!!!!!

fun fact, we use the same laces on large 60" highspeed conveyor belts. different style of lacer, but essentially the same.
Get well soon :-)
Great video Keith, keep'um coming..
Wow atta boy Keith. Take care
Good news!
Keith take care of yourself. I had emergency abdominal non keyhole surgery just before covid. Perfect operation but I took the doctors advice on lifting, liquid diet and so on very seriously. I literally took 12 to 18 months adapting slowly, rather than the 2 or 3 suggested. Smaller portion of food more often, extra liquids and exercise and I am now totally fine. Hope this brings encouragement your way. Best from the UK.
yep had the same a couple of years before covid , really a bad pain hip high right side , anyway 999 call for ambulance they arrived I was now in a bad way , well to cut it short appendix problems at 70 plus are rare , A & E rushed me in up for a CT scan consultant tells me something is not right down there , you are staying with us , OK when will you operate his reply tonight , then they gave me morphine , it was a five hour opp so I was told and a 8 inch scar, anyway they gone all the cancer removed some plumbing , like you now small portions and I weigh 14 stone plus a couple of pounds . but hey I am still here and pretty well
Be well Keith. You are looking good. Happy New Year. 👍💪🙏
get well
hope you feel better soon
Good to have you back Keith. God's continued blessings and healing grace..!
I used to be an industrial electrician and I really had the nack of fault finding and I can’t resist asking you if you’ve checked a couple of things though I’m sure your friends probably have. Firstly the fact that it runs for a while then stops tells me that something may be getting hot, this can be caused by a bad solder joint or even a component that is meant to be screwed to a heat sink with heat sink paste which may have come loose or maybe never screwed down properly in he first place. If the solder joints haven’t already been checked then the best way is to get it out in the sun and have a careful look with a good magnifying glass. As for the heat sinks, just use a screwdriver to see if any of the screws can be tightened. When I did this kind of work I had the luxury of a laser guide infra red thermometer to look for hot spots but maybe you could run it till it stops and devise some way of monitoring the temperature of the circuit board components even if you isolate the power after if stops and quickly feel around with a finger. Be careful with that white heat sink paste though as it is toxic so best not to get it on your skin.
Good luck and I hope you make a good recovery.
Hope you have a complete recovery.
You’re looking good!
Best wishes Keith
Thank you for sharing your health condition with your viewers. I am shocked they removed your gaol blater which can be treated with time 🙏.
You do know that the term 'piddling' has a meaning, at least here in Canada, of urinating! I presume that was not what you meant...
Glad you are well. I enjoy your content and your gentle means of presentation. All the best!
feel better
We use VFD at work to automate a large mixing system multiple tanks and additive pumps and controlled by computer. The electronic tech had to replace one of the VFD’s and it would go into limp mode 20 minutes after startup, it turned out he forgot to set the temperature alarms from the factory default correctly.
Long time viewer, first time commenting. Keith, you are looking great!
You've earned your rest Keith...I still send Reddit peeps over to your old content!!! Take care of your health.
Be well
keith you are looking better, losing weight for any reason will work wonders, wishing you all the best from yorkshire
Thanks for the update Keith. Take it easy and keep getting better.
Glad the surgery has got you sorted Keith, I sympathise with you about "missing" your Christmas treats and good food etc. December 22nd 2021 saw me having open heart surgery to replace a wrecked aortic valve. All is well now but I just wanted to say to be careful with what you do and for how long. You have to listen to what your body is telling you. Slowly, slowly as the saying goes. I felt so good so quickly that I went a bit bonkers and overdid things and ended up back in hospital having a litre of blood drained from around my heart. Depressing doesn't even come close to describing how I felt. All I was doing was walking, not trying to hump dirty great pieces of metal around. So listen to the advice you are given, and listen to what your body is telling you, it knows exactly what's what. Keep the projects going, you are an exceptional talent. Happy New Year from bonnie Scotland!
Prayers for your speedy, full recovery. Thanks for all you do for us, God Bless
Thanks for the video and the update. Glad your getting better.
Wish you a full recovery. Thank you for sharing and getting into the shop to update us.
Best wishes for the coming year Keith. Take it easy sir. Appreciate you taking the time and effort to put a video out.
Look after yourself Keith😊
Keith, may the force be with you, sir! I'm a cancer survivor with a heart condition. Due to this, I'm in better condition than I've been in ages, nothing like a major health issue for motivation! After my heart procedure, one of my nephews said "now you get to eat different delicious food". Truer than true! I'm glad you're back, Keith
Thanks for the update. Take care - always enjoy your postings.
