my terrmite backhoe is suffering some metal damage on the fixed thumb that I built 7 years ago. so we are going to make sure it is strong enough to not happen again. lets fabricate some parts and weld them up.

    Enjoy your videos Mustie , however I find it interesting that in your country you can drive an unregistered vehicle on a public road. Seen that on quite a few videos from the US .

    When you drive a Terramite any distance over a mile, you don't use a watch to time it, you use a calendar…lol

    Great old time video working out of your garage and fabricating right out of your imagination. Even thou it is 2021
    the video is relevent and worth watching. Watching you work reminds me of this expression……. We have been doing
    so much with so little for so long , that now we can do anything , with nothing at all.

    I know that your a very capable man at working with your air tools however using a “death wheel” one handed is a accident waiting to happen! Because it happened to me and now I don’t have any feeling in my left thumb because of it. It happened in a spit second doing something very similar to what you were doing. It caught, stopped & slipped out of my hand and then as it was flipping around I hit the trigger again as it was heading right at the base of my thumb! 28 stitches later. I’m saying this selfishly because I want more of your great videos with both of your hands!

    Miller welders are the best.

    I thought I saw a crack in the weld on the left arm where it meets the pipe. I could be wrong but worth a good look.
