I agree I don't understand way him and his friend don't team up Quit and don't become partners together I think between the 2 of them they would be very successful
"What ever works ,you use what you've got " that's a good saying and a lot of people would benefit listening to it . Instead they go and get into debt to have the latest thing or throw away something that could have been fixed, you can't always go and buy things off the shelf. Thanks for the great video mate cheers from down under.
Good looking garage.. ever think about adding a lean to on the garage, maybe to shade some stuff from elements? Good idea for the storage container as well.
I cried a little when I seen Blue in the condition it's in. That truck was the reason I watched both of y'alls channels. I stayed for the epic excavator work!! lol
D6 is just a good all around dozer. You don't need a lowboy to tote it. Saves you tens of thousands of dollars to haul those big machines. A D6 is good size.
Charlie seems to have a plan for everything, I don't think anything would have moved his storm shelter, glad you all were not affected too much by Florence, how well are you after Michael ?
Great video fellas. Dammit man Charlie has 1 bad ass shop. I'd give anything to have that. Well an be able to afford mechanic,tools an that power bill lol
I have two jib cranes and they are worth ever $$$ I paid for them. The pit is very smart too. For oil service... anything that involves under-work. Building codes in some counties are very hard on pits. OSHA hates them thanks to vapor issues, etc. Explosion proofs lights, etc. Shout to Ace-Avant too.
Comrade Charlie went wrong with the water heater. You see garages have the same chemical make up as blue jeans and everyone knows that hot water shrinks blue jeans. I bet that garage was big enough when he laid it out on paper... as soon as he turned that heater on tho it was all down hill. thanks for sharing comrade bigdeal18 DRINK MORE VODKAS!!
Charlie is a great barder. It doesn't need anything and its payed for. I think you need to over insurance your belongings in you live in Hurricane county because they double your deductible and to replace or rebuild a house after a storm is going to cost more. Property values here on the Mississippi Gulf Coast doubled after Hurricane Katrina, and so did construction cost. My house pre Katrina cost 160k to build after Katrina it was worth 280k 4 years ago it was worth 185k now it is currently worth 220K.
My house here in South Florida is good for 175-225mph winds, Palm Beach County. (win code 6) I pushed it up to (win code 8) of which is Miami Dade county requirement for all new homes built after 2002. I'm also 8 miles inland from the east coast.
"Be Prepared." The Boy Scout Motto has it right. Hurricanes: the wind is bad enough but the wind send flying projectiles that sometime penetrate walls. I'd favor an underground shelter . . . on high ground. But out here in California we mostly have those pesky earthquakes.
thats great, i bet ol'Charlie is thinking about building a Fallout shelter soon, it shouldnt be to difficult with a few shipping containers and his equipment, heck he could build some 12ft above ground with 10ft dirt on top if'n he like to, haha
Those make a good shelter I was thinking pile dirt on the two sides of it you need a door that opens inward in case something lands in front of it you won't be able to get out and take a chainsaw in with you in case you have to cut your way out
Awesome idea on the ‘shelter’.You really do need to be able to shut the door or you and yours would be sucked right out. I would suggest a couple of those ‘J’ brackets with a 2x4 or 1/4” thick steel bar across and a sledge hammer kept inside in case the 125mph wind twisted the end of the box got twisted and you couldn’t get out. Throw an old couch in there. Also cut some side vents, two each side. Combine your setup and these additions and I’d put money on you surviving. Just sayin’. I sure hope this Michael deal didn’t drown you as , between the two of you , you are a good entertaining pair.
A buddys shop had a pit outside and we would just drain oil into the pit till it was too deep for rubber boots then light it a flame. All the oil would burn off in a day or two.
suggestion for your friend..... solar pv panel the entire roof of his shop + install as much li-ion batteries he can get for capacity..... if hwe checks Handdmann on youtube; how he buys telsa electric car battery packs/used opposed to buying commecial li-ion batteries... go take a look. you might be interested, too... the guy built a trailee-mounted solar pv panel box w/ batteries, solar controller, sine wave inverters... great for providing power in remote locations charges by solar power...
Why don’t ya all build a storm shelter in the ground made out of cement? I’m from Winnebago, IL and we have basements to escape from tornadoes, I never understood why so many people that live in areas where there are a lot of tornadoes don’t have storm shelters. If I ever move to the south, that’s my first project. I know some areas in TN have cinder blocks for basements and those can blow over during high winds, I just do not understand why why they don’t set up forms and pour cement for walls; it sure is not the water table, we blast rock to be removed if a basement is to be poured in rocky areas. Just curious to know, is all North Carolina close to sea level?
if you have some steel banding or stainless steel banding.. you can put 2 around the top of your home walls and a few from that over the roof.. stainless steel banding will last longer. it will really hold things together.. you can if you have friends do do power poles.. put in some power line anchors.. around your home and banding up and over the roof.. same with your shop roof.. holding it down in big winds.. even if its fugley.. it takes the big hydraulic power of the power pole install trucks to put them in.. don't forget to put at least 1 by the propane tank.. forward thinking. as for shop AC power bill.. i wonder if it would be cheaper to scrounge a diesel gen set. that is not too much oversized for the shop ac unit.. to run that instead of line power.. just use a transfer switch on the AC power circuit..
Charlie, please hold your cell phone horizontal when video recording. Why? Because then your video will be recorded in the "Widescreen" mode instead of the "Tall and Skinny" mode as seen in this video by you. Thanks.
When you use your cell phone for video, please hold your phone the same way your wide screen TV sits...horizontal. That way we get wide screen instead of tall & skinny video. Thanks.
Charlie's a great guy. Very humble and down to earth. I'm very fond of him....
Keep on trucking Charlie!
Videos with Charlie are my favorite. Not many words but makes good use of them ! lol
This guy is an inspiration, thinks outside the square, he's going to go far.
I agree I don't understand way him and his friend don't team up Quit and don't become partners together I think between the 2 of them they would be very successful
@@332jatcLol that'd be a good slap in the face to his uncle who started the company with his dad
@@Aqufrank I'm not trying to slap anybody in the face I just think you two are a good team that's just my opinion
Man Charlie is the man. I love his set up.
That Charlie is a nice chap, smart idea to put the bluecontainer the way he did "better save than sorry".
It's great to see Charlie again.
If Charley starts or restarts a channel I'd definitely subscribe and watch him too. Just the sort of stuff I really enjoy watching.👍🏻👍🏻
Perfect fall back plan for the shelter. Thanks for the video.
Very nice to see you Charlies thanks Chris for the video .
Charlie is in the wrong business! That storm shelter had me rollin, love it!! 😂
I love the way the boom fit flat on the top.
Desperate times call for desperate measures Mr Charlie. Thanks for sharing and glad all is well.
Merry Christmas to you Charlie..and Chris ❄⛄🌲
Ole charlie is walking in tall cotton now. Iam proud of him tkx for the video's
Love his shelter!! More people need to think outside the box like he does.
Bring back your channel charlie
Brilliant storm shelter not many would think to do that. Great video bro
Thank God you didn't need to find out if your preparations were enough....Glad your all safe!😊
Love it . I go way over board with things too, you can't never be unprepared and have to much heavy equipment 😁
Gotta love Charlie. He’s an old CAT skinner and knows they build the best machines.
Great looking shop Charlie, always enjoy your knowledge....
Great video Chris thanks for sharing have a great day
YOU SIR ARE 💯% DEDICATED EXCELLENT IDEA 💡 WITH THE STORM ⛈ SHELTER 👏🏼👏🏼👍🏻
That's a nice shop!! A well secured storm shelter!
Super shop! About like mine...not big enough! Really like the crane setup. Thanks for sharing Chris!
nice place Charlie! nice shelter also!
Love his four legged helper 💗
Copperheadmarine is Charlie’s channel name for all of those asking 👍brilliant video as always 👌👌👍👍
"What ever works ,you use what you've got " that's a good saying and a lot of people would benefit listening to it .

The best DIY shelter i have seen so far, get-r-don son!
Like how he works. Chris and him are the kind of work ethic I like.
Agreed 100+ %
Great idea with the storage container ‼️👍👍. Vinny 🇺🇸
Good looking garage.. ever think about adding a lean to on the garage, maybe to shade some stuff from elements?
Good idea for the storage container as well.
Lol that is one expensive storm shelter! That’s what I needed in 2011!
I cried a little when I seen Blue in the condition it's in. That truck was the reason I watched both of y'alls channels. I stayed for the epic excavator work!! lol
It might have taken awhile, but that shop is sweet! Think what the cost would be if you had to cut a check for that setup!
I know that feeling when it looks like a Cat 4 or 5 is coming my way. Irma scared the snot out of me when it was a couple of days away..
D6 is just a good all around dozer. You don't need a lowboy to tote it. Saves you tens of thousands of dollars to haul those big machines. A D6 is good size.
excellent shelter.
Good for him. I would have done the same thing if I had those resources.
Y'all are one hell of a team!
I'm lovin that hi-def Charlie shoe shuffling on the concrete lol :D
Simon I picked up on that as well. I don’t think it was Charlie though……4:21
@@mitchjones2821 Yes you're right It's Chris. That is some loud shuffling lol
Simon we’re not a rare breed, but few understand what it’s like to notice stuff like this.
Who are the “7” thumbs down folks? This video is gold. Reminds me of when The Essential Craftsman (TH-cam Channel) highlights his buddy Cy Swan.
Hey almost had to pull the shelter back out for Michael. God bless the people of the pan handle.
Charlie is a great guy and a great friend
Truly impressive shelter.
I really enjoy the vids with Charlie he’s a character! And he’s got a sweet shop to enjoy
Poor Big Blue. Does he still have the superdog Mack?
I love Charlie, and his line of thinking. Good show.
way to go Charlie . love that old girl starting up like a champ .
Charlie seems to have a plan for everything, I don't think anything would have moved his storm shelter, glad you all were not affected too much by Florence, how well are you after Michael ?
Awesome better safe than sorry. Nice work
Charlie must really be doing financially well and his business must have no foreseeable downturn in sight.

Pace Metal Fab and Waterjet hence the 8” ventilation and vapor proof lights.
Charlie is a smart man. He need's his own channel, I think we could learn a bunch from him!

It is the Chris and Charlie show! You need a joint chanel.
That's a badass shop!!
This guy is awesome!!
Awesome lift Charlie, Awesome Shop !!!
gonna frame and plywood the walls next ?
lastfanstanding999 one wall already is with extra insulation and the other walls are next.
thats great, i bet ol'Charlie is thinking about building a Fallout shelter soon,
it shouldnt be to difficult with a few shipping containers and his equipment,

are you goinf to start posting on your channel again?

Love seeing the turbo'd D4D again. Hope he starts uploading a few videos again.
Conex box looks almost zombie proof too!
Charlie is the man!!! Hurricane shelter on the fly hell yeah!!!!!
glad your all sare inc chris and those cats i had a cat she was a siamiese lol she was about 9 years old when she left to die
you should build a big huge machine shed where you can put your machines in

Charlie mentioned his youtube channel. What is his channel?
Love videos brother just need to make them longer hahaha
Charlie has a nice shop
What happened to big blue?
Love it.....Tell Charlie POOR FOLKS GOT POOR WAYS.....and if it works.....its OK.
Charley needs to start back his youtube channel
Whats his TH-cam channel

wow sharlie's set up is better than our local jag garage
OUTSTANDING!!!
I feel like being inside the container would be worst than if you just dug a hole in the ground. Projectiles would go right through the steel.
Why don’t ya all build a storm shelter in the ground made out of cement?

Charlie is always the man with the plan does he still have his channel going?
Nope.. he is not active anymore.
if you have some steel banding or stainless steel banding.. you can put 2 around the top of your home walls and a few from that over the roof.. stainless steel banding will last longer. it will really hold things together.. you can if you have friends do do power poles.. put in some power line anchors.. around your home and banding up and over the roof.. same with your shop roof.. holding it down in big winds.. even if its fugley.. it takes the big hydraulic power of the power pole install trucks to put them in.. don't forget to put at least 1 by the propane tank.. forward thinking. as for shop AC power bill.. i wonder if it would be cheaper to scrounge a diesel gen set. that is not too much oversized for the shop ac unit.. to run that instead of line power.. just use a transfer switch on the AC power circuit..
What part of North Carolina are you in?
that man is a genius
I like charley and his thinking.
A guy could learn alot working with or for Charlie

I wonder what the total weight he had tied to his hurricane shelter? I think he could survive Micheal at Mexico beach.
Now that was cool.
This guy needs a channel.
