    I really miss those times when my boys were that age. Time passes so quickly, cherish the moments you have with them. On the upside, my kids now have kids so I get to re-live the past except when they misbehave, I can hand them back to their parents :).

Keep up the good work and may God continue to bless you all in all your endeavors. Still looking forward to the final video on your dream truck. To be able to take the whole family in a nice comfortable ride and still have all the tools and equipment you need when you arrive {and being miles from home and the shop}. Can't wait to see those videos. Most of my family vacations growing up were working vacations, but dad still found time to mix both work and family fun time together.

    My favorite part of this video so far is you having your son clean up the pin that he dropped and when you say “I have to punish you somehow“ he says “well, yeah” he’s a good kid and gonna be a great man. Also, Hitachi had made all John Deere excavators since they made their partnership. They only just recently stopped I believe.

    Those outer seals contain glass in them. When they stretch to go on they immediately stay that shape and size. The only way to get them back to the correct size is to compress them with a hose clamp. It’s pretty much an instant fix. Good luck and thanks for the great videos.

    He is a real chip off the old block. The excavator has become a solid machine under you hands. As to the instrument panels scratched up screen, if it is plastic, you can use a plastics restorer to buff it back to nearly a new screen

    I remember the time I took my nephew to the beach and he had a ball checking out all the fantastic "new" treasures to be found on the shoreline. A few days later in 35C plus temperatures I found the treasures he left under the seat. It took quite some time with the carpet cleaner pressure washer and a heap of deodorizer to make the car habitable again.

    It's obvious the young man has dirt and grease in his veins. Good man! Your family company will go places in a big way. I am a fan.

    Hi Jesse! Kaiden is turning into a great little helper for you! I was so pleasantly surprised to see him operate the skidsteer and the excavator. Wow...he's growing fast. It always amazes me to see how many parts are needed when repairing machines. I think you're right about Deere wanting people to bring their machines into the dealers for repairs. They make more money that way. It's awesome that you can fix everything like you do. I think this will be a great new addition to your fleet, and I hope to see it in action. I'm normally not a fan of long videos, but no matter how long yours are, I watch the whole thing at one sitting. The time flies by. So entertaining, and at the young age of 72, I'm learning things that I really didn't need to know. But, you never know when it might come in handy. Take care!

    Nice work on your repairs Jesse, if I may say, I was screaming cut out the bent metal as soon as I saw it, you need to buy some sheet metal vice grips for cosmetic repairs. The back up rings don't wear out so just change the actual seals, put the seal puck in the freezer before you put the wear ring over the "o"ring then heat the seal ring in hot water to avoid stretching too far. Enjoyable video, thanks.

    Thank you for buying an excavator TO FIX. One of your TH-cam competitors just bought a BRAND NEW one and priced himself right out of my area of interest.
