    I don't comment much. But every time I do you do reply. That's amazing. You have one of the best KZread channels out there. This video came out a little late today. I found myself checking the feed more times then I would like to admit. Great content. Great style. Great attitude. Add sponsored products to the channel if you want. This is a business. You need to provide. I'll be here. Waiting for the next upload. See you next week.

    Neil, I loved your shop tour. Thank you for sharing. When i briefly saw the garage door, i immediately wanted to know more. I was so happy to hear you talk about it at the end. That is very cool & and it touched me with tenderness knowing it's full meaning. You have two beautiful daughters, and i love when they have cameos in your videos. That is special. Dan 😊

The girls just made another addition to the door this past Father's Day and I can't believe how quickly they're filling it up.

    This channel was a great find for me, so much of the content is relatable. It's great to see how someone else utilizes many of the same things and is willing to share them for all to see. The Firewood processing, heating with it, the older Deere L&G & compacts, Ford trucks, an endless array of home projects. Great video content that was presented with your attention to editing/ video quality. Please keep going with your same format and looking forward to what you share in 2022! All the best to you and your family from MN!

    I know exactly why, given the time (and sometimes I do, health issues keeping me from my own massive Project List) binge anything that looks interesting that comes up on the sidebar with your channel logo: it's relatable, exceptionally well-produced, you obviously have a passion for it, but most of all, you are a genuine Good Neighbor kind of guy. By that, I mean you're wholesome yet infectious that I'm always curious to see what you're working on/sharing with your audience. I actually started listing what Good Neighbor really meant to me, but as a reformed author and you being a smart fellow, I'm sure you know what values are dying out in America that I love seeing on your channel. TLDR: don't change a thing! Consequently, there's a handful of channels I'm putting on a shortlist for our next product launch, and I'd be genuinely honored if I could add you to the list, but me being me, it won't release until it's as good as it can possibly be. It's one of those spin-off things that ended up being so interesting for the Million in 1 Uses kind of deal that it's taken over primary development around here. Anyway, I'm not looking for exposure unless it's earned, we're a small family company so I can't/won't shower you in freebies, but a pint sample can is very doable. Don't know if you've set up a PO Box yet, but it seems a common item that a lot of youtubers who accept freebies from subs or whatnot will offer up from time to time before they get too big and need to rent out a warehouse 😁 At risk of being extraordinarily long already, I wish you the best of future success and will enjoy your passion projects before this channel blows up. (Afterwards also, naturally, but with size you'll have to hire a PR person to monitor your comment section. The trivialities of being too good at something, eh?)

    Well I appreciate this comment very much. Thanks for such a thoughtful take on things and yes; I feel as if I have a sense of what traits are dwindling in neighbors across America. That community pride and togetherness is still out there, we're just not t seeing enough of it. Thanks for the consideration of being included in your product launch. I am intrigued to know more for sure. I don't foresee my channel getting too big anytime soon, but I'll be glad to help out other small business owners in any way that I can. You can find me via snail mail at: PO. Box 137 Harlan, IN 46743 Thanks for the great comments and for following along with the silly stuff I record.

    @@digdrivediy Can't guarantee when that may show up, we're still trying to figure out if it pertains to hazmat requirements even though it shouldn't, but if one day next spring a small can in a square box shows up with suspicious labels from Texas, give it a chance before calling the bomb squad. 😉 Long story shortish, I was working with a small team to fabricate stronger composite jet engine parts right before Covid hit and wiped out our project. I continued working on stuff at home and ended up with this spin-off product that every time I test it on something, I find a new use for it. It'll come with fairly thorough paperwork, but it's primarily designed as an additive for strengthening anything that can be mixed (concrete and 3d printing resin have responded phenomenally above expectations thus far) or painted, and as a side benefit, it doesn't corrode under extreme heat (just discovered it also reverses rust to a point last month!)

    Found your channel about 6 months ago? I really enjoy what you do, the garden tractors, diy, shop content, family life, it's all things I do myself and you do a great job of sharing it. I like that you don't put out videos just to make videos... it's always much better when there is a purpose. It gets old when other channels make videos that feel like there isn't a purpose other than getting people to click. As far as product advertisement goes, I don't mind it as long as it's not over the top. Keep doing what you've been doing, I always look forward to your new videos. I wish you well with '22.

You do great work with all your projects and your videos and editing are great as well. I really like how you seem to highlight your family and show how important your wife and daughters are to you. You guys are a great team! Beautiful shop and homestead by the way. Your place and projects around your place have inspired and given me many ideas for own place while maintaining it and doing yard work on the 2.5 acre yard. I only have a 24x40 shop that tends to get very messy and unorganized during my small projects but also hope to do a better job of keeping it clean this year. Also hope to get it insulated in the future. Keep up the good work in 2022 as I know you will! Also don't worry about what viewers think about you promoting a product or using something in a video a manufacturer has sent for you to test. It's your channel so do what is best for you and your family. If it helps fund you putting out this great content I don't have a problem with it!

    I tend to comment a bunch. I think you tell a great story and I’d love to see you be a $10k/month KZreadr. I think with this video, you shared more than any other channel I watch, so I thank you for sharing. My one piece of advice (besides encouraging you to partner with more established KZreadr on videos to increase your base), is to ensure you are transparent about paid relationships - I’d suggest at the level of the recent Tractor Time with Tim new tractor video, where he mentioned where he had John Deere/AHW assistance. He stayed away from actual $$$, but I felt he was as transparent as a professional KZreadr should be.

    I really appreciate HONEST product reviews ANYWHERE I can find them. Even better when someone incorporates those products they review into there own lives. There's a KZreadr called PROJECT FARM that does all sorts of product reviews and testing. I have watched 90-95% of all his videos. Please let us know of any products you have used and found to be "As Advertised"! I love the garage door panel as well. When my kids were very small my wife put up borders of wallpaper in their big bedroom. She gave the kids permission to draw anything they liked in between those borders. One of the most painful things I ever did was move out and leave that behind. Their drawings were actually on sheetrock between the borders. Probably could not have gotten away with taking them. KEEP UP THE GOOD AND HONEST VIDEOS.
