Watch Wes Work

Behind the Scenes - January

The shop is shaping up, but how should I fix my workbench?

Dad Did It Again!

Another tractor left for dead. Let's see if it will start.

2024 Wrap Up

You guys have seen most of this stuff, but there might be a few Easter eggs.

Merry Christmas Everyone!

Santa's CNC workshop was busy making slingshots for my 8 nephews. No broken windows yet...

I Bought a Very Broken Forklift

And then I fixed it!

I need some help with a title for this video. There are too many options.

The Best Brake Line Replacement

Stainless baby!

I Needed a Bigger Forklift

She's a real peach. 11 tons of well patinaed American iron. If that hour meter is correct, she's put up a good fight.

Of course it doesn't actually run. The starter will turn the transmission, but not the engine. That can't be good.

Video coming soon!

Dodge Ram Repairs with a Curve Ball.

Never seen this happen!

Ram 2500 No A/C with a New Compressor

This one is a head scratcher. Sorry there's no satisfying ending, but that's how it goes.

Silverado Battery Light Mystery

I don't know if I fixed it, or if it was ever even broken.

Non-scam Sponsors

I don't really want to do an outright sponsorship on my channel, but I'm not opposed to it if the fit is right. What are the least scammy sponsors you have seen? I have a feeling it will be a short list.

Maybe I should have scrapped it...

But where's the fun in that! Fixing the old Hotsy and getting my CNC router up and running.

Wood Wacking

The powdered tree carcass really highlights the oil stains on my shirt...

Rodents and Electrical Gremlins

But I'm not complaining...

Will it Run? 96 Sebring Sitting 9 Years

I don't know why, but they want to get it running. Here we go!

This has to be the world's ugliest CNC machine

And now it's mine...

Reviving My Bargain CNC Mill

It has a lot of problems, but I think we can manage.

UTV Modz and an Update on the Shop

A real hodgepodge of a video.

Will brake lathes make a comeback?

3/4 ton truck brake rotors are now $160 each! I wonder if brake lathes will be coming back. I can do a lot of machining for $160. This one was a little too big for the Ammco, so I rigged it up on the engine lathe.

I made a Discord server

I guess. I'm not sure yet how to use it, but it exists.

The Car Parts Situation is Insane

I don't get it.

The Long Overdue Shop Overhaul

I finally hit the breaking point!

I'm still Alive...

100 hours of work over the last 8 days. I have moved every single thing in my shop at least once. Video coming soon. I hope...

Some Farmers Can Weld. Some Cannot..

These guys cannot.

Solving my Fly Problem

What if I could make a laser to vaporize flies? It just needs an aiming system.

Is the Drill Doctor Actually Good?

Let's find out.

3D CAD Files for Drill Sharpening

How I Sharpen Drill Bits

This was a viewer requested video. Let me know what you think.

Finishing the Case 580C Backhoe - Sort of...

Backhoes are never finished, they are only abandoned.

The Best Videos

Thanks for all the good feedback! I love reading through the suggestions.

Several people have asked what kind of videos I want to be making. The answer is the same as always, I want to make the kind of videos I want to watch. I like watching clever people figure out difficult problems without taking themselves or the situation too seriously.

It might be easier to make a list of video styles in my genre I don't like:

1) Machinist/maker videos where they have the skills and...
