I received my TTC co bus the other day and thought I'd share some photos. IF you also purchased the bus please share yours.

The title says it all, examples are in the video. Ken Patterson was right, of course...

Youtube changes, and how it affects creators in our hobby.

Last evening I received an email informing me that my channel with 200k views is going to be demonetized because viewers aren't watching the channel enough. Granted I don't post there much as I use the JaSM channel. But my point is, this channel flew under the radar for a long time.

The new year is upon us. And as this farm is inundated with snow, this family lives life to its fullest.

You know while making this video I began to really appreciate what it does. When laying out all the projects I really do feel a sense of accomplishment. 2018 will definitely bring new projects and possibly some products.

While I work on making one of these 3d printing videos with my friend Jason Reece. I realize that I haven't shared the previous videos. So while this video gets its finishing touches, I'll share the previous videos. 

First is with my friend Ed Traxler, a Vet well versed in a bunch of techno #$%^#, but I digress. Ed first talked to me about Sketchup a few years ago.

I have a lot of luck. Like really, I am one lucky guy. I have a small following and in that following are some very generous people. And in this project, I intend to meet their generosity in kind. This project will take a long time and I am happy to say that's alright. The client just wants to watch the videos along with you. And that is pretty cool.

A big pet peeve of mine is to hear more about how easy and quick a model was built, rather than the enjoyment it produced. While not everyone is in this hobby for the therapy, some do indeed relax with the hobby. And if you do, do us all a favor and share it. We need to reign in this hobby from being an expensive competition to being a hobby for me, and you I guess.

Recently I lost the drive to build for a week or two. I have a feeling it had something to do with work, it is a busy time of year for farmers. Thing is I use this hobby like a medicine and sometimes you need the discipline to stay healthy. And for me, the self-diagnosed needs a few hours in the shop every week.
