    I love the videos where you grab Bill and take him along for the ride! He’s such a gentleman. You have the nicest friends and know the nicest people. Matt and Jim were great and so enthusiastic about their place and what they do. You have such a great variety of things on your channel and it’s the people - you, your family, your friends, and the people you take us to meet that make it so much fun. If you told anyone who knows me that I watched a tour of a garage and enjoyed it, they’d tell you that you were crazy! 😂😂

He worked for Louden's in Fairfield Iowa, but its now ACCO Babcock but no longer in Iowa. They were first used in large barns in the 1800's.
