    Andy, I'm 66 years old. Been a jack of all trades for everything but truck driving, 20+years. You are truly an inspiration from the first video I watched of yours. Thank you.

      I totally agree! I laffed my butt off when the solution to a stripped out gearbox was a "BFW". Whattahoot!
      If this guy was closer I would grab tools and give him a hand as I too have a superficial knowledge of a bunch o' stuff.
      The last time I loaded by car with tools and crossed the border to help a friend who had moved into a new house, in Minnesota, the border guy was just a bit suspicious that I was going to be paid. I had to imply that we were friends with benefits. Luckily my missus didn't make that trip as she would not have found that strategy funny.
      Ha!

    As someone who has done the same thing - all of it - this year, I salute you! My oldest daughter and I dug our "holding tank" hole for a tote by hand, which was great until the last 2 feet where it was solid clay and sandstone! Fixed up an old 5th Wheel and live comfortably. I do recommend a heated hose! Bought ours on Amazon and works well.

    Our motto is we'll figure it out. Almost never know what we're doing, but almost always figure it out. Enjoy watching someone else doing the same. Take care!

    "Maybe I'll get made fun of less in the comments"
    The ones that are criticizing you are the ones that are *QUACK*ing jealous.
    The ironic part is that they're helping you grow by criticizing you, and you'll show up more in their feeds because they interacted with your channel.
    The algorithm says, "He likes this!"
