Added 2023-08-13 15:45:28 +0000 UTCI think this is the most time I have ever spent editing a video. I hope it was worth it.

2023-08-15 22:34:19 +0000 UTCYes, absolutely! Thank you Wes, I always enjoy your videos!

2023-08-15 15:48:23 +0000 UTCIt's an old habit from other places I have worked. Better to ruin your day than ruin your night.

2023-08-15 15:45:41 +0000 UTCGood point. Try new things, but remember you might cut your leg off!
Watch Wes Work
2023-08-15 15:44:43 +0000 UTCThis one has everything! Drama, suspense, great storytelling! And a twist ending? Never in a million years would I have thought I’d get emotional watching a backhoe transmission repair video! Outstanding job Wes!
Daniel Peterson
2023-08-14 22:18:01 +0000 UTCsome designs are cursed. but the machines are out there, and cheap due to the maintenance struggle. so shops end up with nasty Machi es and. customers who got the cheap, not willing to pay many repair hours.

2023-08-14 01:24:12 +0000 UTCSo good. Gotta be a satisfaction to breathe new life into a piece of history like that. Really worth the watch. I look forward to the next phase.

2023-08-14 00:46:20 +0000 UTCSo either you bought a new shop or you’re moving. Change and growth is good, hope one day the channel is making way more than you did working. But I hope you’ll also still continue to make content.

2023-08-13 21:39:47 +0000 UTCI think Wes is selling out. He's going to open up a franchise of Jiffy lubes.😁

2023-08-13 20:31:15 +0000 UTCGotta love how everyone is worried. Wes’ responses are basically, nope, hold my beer.

2023-08-13 19:45:52 +0000 UTCLove the video by the way Wes, especially the outro. I'm very interested in what you have planned next!

2023-08-13 19:42:43 +0000 UTCThis reminds me in a small way of a story told to me by a former co-worker. Some time in the 1980s He rebuilt the engine in his MK2 Ford Cortina but just couldn't bring himself to turn the key, he was so nervous about having done something wrong. He felt so foolish that he couldn't ask a neighbour, so he called out the breakdown recovery service that he was a member of. When the patrolman arrived he burst out laughing when he was told the reason for the callout. It started and ran just fine by the way!
David Yates
2023-08-13 19:38:32 +0000 UTCThere are new things with skills and there are new things without them. I've never felled a tree with a stone axe, but I have with a single-bit steel axe. So, using stone would be taxing, but the technique and pacing would already be known. This is not the same as taking a stone axe woodsman and handing them a chainsaw. Novelty is good for the brain, and for the soul.

2023-08-13 17:27:59 +0000 UTCThere was another one where they recovered a P38 Lightning from inside a glacier. It was really in bad shape, but I believe it was restored to flying condition.

2023-08-13 17:25:03 +0000 UTCWtf we’re not going to see Wes work any more very sad day love watching you and all your antics and mind boggling repairs and fixes 🥹🥹
Greg Leach
2023-08-13 17:24:55 +0000 UTCGreat video Wes! As a US Air Force brat, I grew up around or on Air Force bases. I used ride my bike down to the flight line to check out the B-52s and F4 Phantoms parked there. To this day, I have an interest in military aircraft, especially the B-29. I too remember the “Kee Bird” documentary and knew exactly what your reference to it meant. The crew got so close to succeeding but ultimately failed. It was heart-wrenching watch that beautiful bird burn to the ground or ice in this case. I hope your new plans will allow you to keep making videos as they are some of the best on Youtube.

2023-08-13 17:16:19 +0000 UTCWasn't expecting that ending, hope everything is ok.

2023-08-13 17:06:22 +0000 UTCWes, if you’re looking for a change, move to South Dakota, RDO or Titan would hire you in a second. The school district would hire your wife in a second. Plus no state income tax, a better State government, and the winters aren’t much worse than Illinois.

2023-08-13 16:55:35 +0000 UTCMaybe it's a tactic to keep anyone from stealing their designs.

Watch Wes Work
2023-08-13 16:54:43 +0000 UTCIt's absolutely normal to want to do new things! Whoever's said otherwise must be pretty bored. In regards to British stuff, I've always assumed that British engineers just hate British mechanics a little bit more than most, I've seen some crazy stuff especially with stuff of the Whitworth era, god help me I have seen too much of that, and don't even get me started on Land Rover, Jaguar and such.

2023-08-13 16:35:03 +0000 UTCI can't. I worked in a foundry. We had guys who would grind castings all day every day with pneumatic grinders in a hot dusty shop and they would beg to work overtime.
