I am glad to see good progress. I am an amateur machinist with a 10" Logan Lathe and a 1952 Bridgeport, a round ram and a step pully J head held together with a twin (only 1 head tho) horizontal head attchment. My power is tread mill motor 2.5 HP DC My control is a Harbor Freight router speed control feeding a 100 amp diode bridge. I'm 82 and loving it. I call myself the "Accidental Machinist" as I sometimes build something right. Get well soon Steve.
Good to see you looking and feeling better, Steve. You and Don will be making videos again before long. You can always ride that stool that you attach to the bed of planer.
Looks like you’re making good progress - keep it up. I hope your wife is taking this well. It’s as tough on her as it is on you. I put my wife thru similar stress in ‘23 and beginning of 2024. Keep up the good progress!
You look so much better and your voice is good and strong again! Keep working hard, and put this bump in the road behind you and get your butt back in the shop where you belong!! Good luck my friend.
Keep improving. There will probably be some setbacks. Don't give up. I had Guillian Barre Syndrome that made me a quadraplegic 47 years ago. I bounced back but, it was 5 years before I could get things mostly back. Good Luck, Rick
You are looking and sounding so much better! Congratulation on that. Wishing you a a speedy and complete recovery. It took me a few weeks to learn to walk again, but it didn't turn out to be too much of a challenge. Greetings from chilly Germany.
I won't be going away any time soon. 2 years ago a younger fella I know through the interwebs had a bad attack of GB that had him within inches - literally - of losing his life. Today he is not 100% back to normal but doing far far more than some of the Drs thought he would be doing. And still gaining. Don't give up! That is the main thing.
Glad to hear that you're improving, you look and sound much better and stronger! To me, these health update videos are like getting to talk to an old friend I haven't seen in a while and hearing about how they are healing. I'm glad you're doing them. I'm sure it helps mentally. Don't worry about subscriber numbers, just like good friends, the serious people will be there for you. People take for granted the small things like brushing your teeth, putting on shoes or whatever until they or someone they know can't do them. It is AMAZING how much being able to put a shoe on your foot or lift your leg for the first time after an injury or surgery. People who haven't experienced that simply don't and won't understand until they live it.
Stay after it. It is pretty amazing what the body can recover and adapt to. Sometimes not as fast as we like... but much of the time it does get there.
Steve! It’s Don’s fault! Love both of you guys. Take your time, get well soon. You won’t be losing this subscriber! God Bless. Frank Timmons, your Thailand based fan.
Great to see you back.very much enjoy all the hard won knowledge you are kind enough to share in that hard to beat style.pretty sure many of your films will be used to educate future generations when the current global computer obsession goes down for the last time . ML&R from Ireland 🍀
Hi Steve, you are looking & sounding so much better, thanks for the update. Glad your son is picking up the job, great that you are able to support him. Good to hear you are keeping Don on his toes. We miss you to and btw so does Bob. I’m a bit concerned that they have taught you to pee yourself, that’s something the rest of us are trying to avoid!
Looking good Steve! Keep going, you've got this! You'll be back in the shop in no time. As to those who un-subbed...you don't need them or want them around anyhow.
Keep fighting to get better, do all they ask. Those people at the rehab centers are amazing. Like you I was in the hospital, then in rehab, then in out-patient care after my stoke. I'd lost use of my right side, my vision was messed up and my balance was screwed up. But I got most of it back but it was a long road. I'm coming up on my 5yr anniversary and I can work in the shop and do everything I could do before, just a little different,. So hang in there brother it gets better. Love your channel. I'll be praying for you.
A darn fine update Steve! So glad to see you on the mend. Keep building on your success of getting well. God bless you and all that have helped you to get this far. Keep after it Don
You're looking so much better now and it's great to hear you're been well looked after, thank god you had some good insurance. It's a pity to hear some people are leaving your channel, but not me, looking forward to seeing you and Don back in the workshop up to mischief. All the best from us here in the UK
Good progress just keep on pushing forward, say hi to Don . These things take time for your brain and the body to work through be kind to yourself and keep push forward but at the right pace , the professionals know the right way follow their lead. Best wishes and Prayers for a full recovery!
Steve, you may not look pretty, but you are looking so much better. Your head movements and upper body is so much more animated, keep getting those small wins.
Wow, you’ve made great progress. Stop worrying about other stuff, concentrate on getting well. Keep lifting them weights. You’ll look like a young Ronnie Coleman by the time you get home. God bless and regards from across the pond
Hi Steve, I'm still looking for you every day wishing you a speedy recovery. It's true, you and Don need each other. A lot of people praying for you, I know Clark requested prayer for you on his channel. Love you brother, get back to work!
Awesome Steve you can do it! You may feel helpless now but, after while you will be back to work doing your thing again making videos! I will be watching
You look and sound a lot better Steve, wishing you a speedy recovery! 👍👍 edit: Steve as far a subscriber loss goes it may just be TH-cam deleting Bot accounts, for some reason they like to ban Bot Accounts all at once and I've seen other creators talk about this where they suddenly have a large amount of subs disappear overnight due to this. But if it is real ppl unsubbing screw them, if they can't handle you when you're at your worst they don't deserve you when you're at your best. 👌
Your looking and sounding a lot better Stev, keep up the good work, looking forward to when you are ready to get back into the shop from your Kiwi mate down under Grant NZ.
Its all Don's fault. Glad to see you looking better. Going to need some Bondo and some of that icing to make you look pretty. 😉Get well soon, we have drywall to do at Windyhill Foundry.
Damn, you look different! Looks like ya lost some poundage too. Doctors must be withholding that Mountain Dew. 🤣 Keep plugging away. You're doing great.
Nice to see you getting even better still Steve. Keep it up and you will be home quick as a flash bending Don's earhole. BTW Don's too busy painting your machines to play with his wana be planer. He's worn out 2 brushes already !
Wow, you're really coming around! I had big plans to come crash your party this past weekend, even found the address and everything like a creepy stalker, but started feeling sick on Friday. Turns out I contracted chicken pox and it is now eating me alive, so you're off the hook....for now. I only WISH I looked as good as you do right now!
It's great to see you more alert and in good spirits. Hurry up and get well. You are needed back in the shop. Best Wishes.
Wow, Steve, you are looking so much better. My very best wishes for a speedy rehabilitation. From Glenn in the UK
looking and sounding great Steve! you arent going to lose this subscriber, just get better day by day and God bless you and your family
Steve it is good to see you sleeping better. Your looking much better. Keep up the good work!
Good stuff Steve - as they say they can’t keep a good man down! Glad to hear your still yelling at Don!
Between You and Keith Rucker this is starting out bad for the year. I wish you all the best Steve, tell Don were wishing him well too.
WOW - Steve and now Keith down. One’s health is so precarious. Hang in there.

Keep us up to date. When you are ready get back in to the shop. Until then we be happy with the updates.
Looking great, Steve! So happy your recovery is going so well. Can't wait until you start the "learning to make chips again" part of your rehab!
Looks like you’re making good progress - keep it up. I hope your wife is taking this well. It’s as tough on her as it is on you. I put my wife thru similar stress in ‘23 and beginning of 2024.
Keep up the good progress!
So glad to hear you’re improving. Thank you for the update. 🙏🏻
You look real good, and sound good. Looking forward to you being back in the shop. Praying for you, may God bless.
You look so much better and your voice is good and strong again! Keep working hard, and put this bump in the road behind you and get your butt back in the shop where you belong!! Good luck my friend.
Glad to see your continued improvement, Steve! You're nearly back to your regular self it seems!
Keep improving. There will probably be some setbacks. Don't give up. I had Guillian Barre Syndrome that made me a quadraplegic 47 years ago. I bounced back but, it was 5 years before I could get things mostly back. Good Luck, Rick
Glad you’re getting better Steve

You are looking great!!!
wow you're looking great today! keep your spirits up, keep the beard too, it looks good.
Dang, Steve. It was enough trauma learning to walk when I was 11 months. I wouldn’t want to have to do it again. I’m sure you’ll do it. 1:19
Get well, sir. I need you to be around so I can hire you to check out a lathe with me when I get ready for it!
Your looking so much better... Youll soon be back at it
You are looking good, got some color in your face. Glad you are making good progress.
🙏... Rainy day friends are real friends...
I subscribed a few days ago. Made up for at least one loss. From one F.O.G. to another, old age ain’t for wimps.
Thank you for the update
Damn, you look different!
Looks like ya lost some poundage too.
Doctors must be withholding that Mountain Dew.
🤣
Keep plugging away.
You're doing great.
Keep up the tough work, you are going to make it.
Nice to see you getting even better still Steve. Keep it up and you will be home quick as a flash bending Don's earhole. BTW Don's too busy painting your machines to play with his wana be planer. He's worn out 2 brushes already !
Good news. Keep up the good work.
You are looking better but obviously have lost a good bit of weight. Hope you continue getting better rapidly and are back to normal soon.
Good to see that you're doing better. Much better color also. Maybe more 'Don' in the future videos.
looking good Steve, get better.
Glad to see you improving !! At least we know you don't have an iron deficiency!
Hi Steve. Your looking good, you will be back to making videos before you know it.👍🙏
👍🏻 right on.
Wow, you're really coming around! I had big plans to come crash your party this past weekend, even found the address and everything like a creepy stalker, but started feeling sick on Friday. Turns out I contracted chicken pox and it is now eating me alive, so you're off the hook....for now. I only WISH I looked as good as you do right now!
Much appreciated.
